Amazing Experience with Justin Ketchem

Justin was an absolutely amazing photographer from start to finish. He asked all the right questions ahead of our wedding, which made the planning process smooth and efficient and helped us feel completely prepared going into the day. During the wedding itself, he gave clear direction for posing and was proactive about bringing us to different locations to capture the event beautifully.

We chose Justin because his work goes far beyond that of a typical wedding photographer. His photos are not overexposed or formulaic. He has a true artistic eye. He perfectly captured the vintage vision I had for our photos, and you can tell from his portfolio that he excels at capturing not just images, but the feeling of a wedding day. Whether your wedding style is light and airy or moody and atmospheric, Justin has an incredible ability to adapt his photography to the aesthetic you want.

On top of that, his pricing is very fair for the quality of work he delivers. I truly cannot recommend him enough.

Best Wedding Photographer!

Justin is a a wonderful photographer and was great to work with! From discussions on booking to the wedding day, Justin was very responsive to messages and questions. On the wedding day, it seemed like him and his second shooter were always everywhere which was great since they didn’t miss a moment. The pictures turned out so good and the colors were bright and true which is the style we were looking for/ hoping for. We also received all of our photos back way sooner than we expected. I’d definitely recommend Justin to anyone looking for a wedding photographer!

June 2027 wedding in NE Ohio

Justin Ketchem (photography) was spectacular. My husband and I still can’t believe we got such amazing quality in work and experience that fit our budget. Justin was a wonderful person to work with. He was professional, flexible, and easy to get along with. He understood exactly what we wanted/needed and provided it both in our engagement shoot and on our big day. Looking at our wedding photos is like looking at an art gallery. He captured such special moments, I felt like they were scenes out of a movie that I was looking through. A specific thing I appreciated was his knowledge of how to pose us to really bring the pictures to life. My husband and I are not photogenic nor do we like pictures, but I can honestly say Justin changed both of those things! We could not have asked for a better wedding photographer. 10/10 highly recommend!

Experienced and inciteful truly great work!

Justin was amazing, and he truly has an eye for capturing sentimental moments on camera. He was a pleasure to work with and is clearly very experienced and insightful. All the precious memories I wanted to save, he was able to capture in his photography. I felt like we were on the same page, planning and during the wedding. I have gotten so many compliments on not just the quality of the photos but the comprehensiveness of the moment depicted. They are truly a gift, and I cannot thank him enough for his work and guidance.

Wonderful experience!

Justin shot our wedding and reception 8/13/22. He was so wonderful to work with! We met early on, discussed our preferences, met for engagement photos and then the wedding. He was so laid back, flexible, and met all of our needs along the way! We had a great experience with not being rushed along and he was able to go with our flow. Now we have a wonderful collection of photos with such important memories! We worked with him due to family recommendation and we would definitely recommend him for others!

Capturing Every Moment Beautifully

Justin not only has a great eye for detail, he also has a sense of ease that just makes spending a good portion of your biggest day in front of cameras much easier than I anticipated it being! He knew what was important to us and was great about getting the photos at different times of sunset we wanted while still allowing ample time for mingling and dancing. He captured us as a couple in a beautiful way that comes through clearly in the photos. He truly has an artistic eye and found the best spaces at our venue for staged photos, something my husband and I were kind of dreading as we are not usually “photogenic” or too goofy for nice pictures, but Justin just has a way with posing us to truly get the best result! I cannot recommend him enough!

Amazing Photographer

Justin was absolutely wonderful to work with and I would recommend him to everyone! I planned my wedding from out of state and Justin was flexible about setting up phone chats and working around the fact that we couldn't easily meet in person. In addition, he was so helpful in planning throughout the process. He had great suggestions and I always felt confident that I was in good hands, and didn't need to stress. Both Justin and the second photographer were very easy to work with and made everyone feel very comfortable. They also worked really well with the other vendors throughout the day. Most importantly, the photos are so beautiful, and my husband and I are so happy with them. They were everything that we wanted, and more. You will not regret choosing Justin for your wedding!

We got married this in August 2016 and we were so happy with Justin Ketchem Photography. Photography was the one place I didn't want to spare any expense because these were the moments we would be looking at for the rest of our lives. Justin and his assistant did an incredible job. They were creative with our pictures in a tasteful, classic way. They were always present without being in the way. All the moments were captured that I had dreamed of. They are very open to suggestions too if you have ideas about specific photos that you want. I would highly recommend Justin Ketchem Photography!

Justin is a great person to work with. He was always very responsive during the planning process, even though we were in different time zones. He showed up on time, was there for every detail of our big day, and happily accommodated all of our requests. The finished product was amazing and it is clear he puts a lot of effort into his work. He even accommodated my last-minute edit requests with no hesitation! We had a great time and will remember our wedding day forever due to his amazing photos.
