About Ted and Rachel Linczak

Ted and Rachel Linczak established Linczak Photography after their own marriage in 2006. Their combined zeal for creating not only the most exquisite wedding photographs in Cleveland but also an unforgettable experience for their clients quickly made their studio one of the most sought-after in Northeast Ohio. Ted and Rachel are well known for their innate ability to make people look and feel incredible in front of the camera, leaving their clients breathless over the quality of their work. They believe that the skill of bringing out the inner beauty of their subjects is the most important skill a photographer in Cleveland should possess and spend hours getting to know their clients before the wedding. Ted and Rachel have a commitment to quality and perfection in every wedding they photograph. They feel privileged to work with a bride and groom on the best day of their new life together, and relish the opportunity to exceed their clients’ expectations for their wedding photography time and time again. Ted and Rachel’s relentless commitment to quality and exceptionalism, leads them to take only a limited number of weddings and portraits per season.

Lucky to have them on our team

We adored working with Rachel and Ted. Their photography style is exactly what we wanted, and they worked hard to find interesting, creative, and dramatic shots. When another vendor threw off the entire timeline for our day, Ted and Rachel remained calm and focused. They were able to make magic happen in minutes. The best part about Rachel and Ted - we barely noticed them during all the "major moments". They were dressed professionally, worked hard to get the best shots, but didn't call attention to themselves. I highly recommend this professional team - they will exceed all of your expectations.

I can not rave enough about Ted and Rachel. My brother used them for his wedding in 2008 and I knew I would use them for mine. The pictures they took we're so beautiful and elegant. We had a very big bridal party(24 total) and they were able to capture some great moments and had a lot of patience. They are so great to work with and made our special day even more amazing.

My advice would be to book Rachel and Ted just as fast as you can. Rachel and Ted were great to work with. They put us at ease and made getting our pictures taken fun. My husband is not a fan of getting his picture taken and even he enjoyed our engagement photo shoot. And the pictures... Ted and Rachel got some great shots that make us look good and were beautifully and creatively "framed." You'll get the traditional shots that everyone wants, but you'll also get fabulous shots that are unexpected but knock-your-socks-off gorgeous. Seriously, any time we need professional pictures, my first call will be to Rachel and Ted. They are talented and fun to work with. Loved them!

When my (now) wife asked me to help pick out a photographer for our wedding, I proudly presented my budget suggestions - Craigslisters with above-average spelling, the classmate who owned the biggest DSLR, even a portfolio-building undergrad from CWRU's department of "Art Education". She rejected them all and explained that the wedding photographer was something that should not be skimped on. Working with the Linczaks and seeing their results has shown me that she was right (this time)!

The great thing about Ted and Rachel's "fashion documentary" style is that they will not only capture your most special moments and make you look like royalty, but also add value to every other detail of your wedding day. Visitors to your home will ask you why there is an Armani model decorating your mantle before realizing it's just you in that Men's Wearhouse rental. Their lens will turn your modest venue into a luxury mansion, and your hotel lobby into a historic palace. Your flowers will look like they are growing right out of your centerpiece. Save where you can, but don't underestimate the skill of a master image maker.

Perhaps even more valuable than this team's eye for the perfect image is their ability to bring out the best in their subjects. They were tremendously fun to work with for both our engagement and wedding shots, drawing out genuine smiles and laughter with ease. For more posed shots, their instructions will make any novice feel and look like an experienced model! During the wedding, they were tactful and efficient whether rounding up a giant group picture or stealing us away to get some sunset shots alone.

At the end of it all, our sessions with the Linczaks were some of the most enjoyable parts of an experience that can be very stressful at times. Why worry about your photos when you can leave everything in Ted and Rachel's experienced hands, and just relax. The Linczaks are professional, talented, enjoyable, reliable, first-rate photographers.

When planning our wedding, I came across tons of photographers in our area and did not know much about what exactly we needed/wanted, let alone which package would be the best fit for our special day. That all changed when I came across Linczak Photography! My fiance and I had met with several other individual photographers/companies in our search, but none of them compared to Ted and Rachel! I was looking through their packages, previous shoots, pricing, etc and to my surprise, I saw Rachel and recognized her from college! I knew she was just the sweetest person and so I gave them a call. Sooooo glad I did! We met with her and Ted, who just make you feel so at ease and comfortable, they walked us through so many options and helped us figure out what we wanted for our special day. I have to say, after having them photograph our wedding, and being apart of other friend and family weddings, I did not realize at the time how awesome having a team photographer was! Ted captured photos of my fiance, Rachel me, and then both of them at the ceremony and reception! Awesome! The quality and artistic talent from each of them is amazing and their professionalism, but yet very personable and kindhearted, just makes you feel at ease and enjoy your day stress free. I recommend them to family and friends any chance I get!

Ted & Rachel are amazing talented photographers who made the wedding day an event to remember always. During the months leading up to the wedding Rachel was always available by phone and super helpful in suggestions for pre-wedding shots and more. They provided us with a very detailed minute by minute scenario to be filled in so that nothing was left to chance - which was perfect for this super-organized bride & groom! As for the photos....I cannot say enough about both the engagement and wedding shots. Ted & Rachel have a special way of using lighting and an amazing eye for whatever location they are using. Each & every photo is well thought-out & special.
