Easy decision, simple process, and excellent results!

I found Your Story when I was looking for photographers who were happy to shoot smaller weddings. It was a very small wedding with only immediate family. This gave us even more time for couple photos and now we have so many beautiful shots in different environments. We worked with Jason and he was awesome and so easy to work with. Our pictures came back so fast and they look amazing. I highly recommend Your Story for your wedding big or small!

Beautiful pictures and wonderfully experience!

Jason really took the time to make sure the pictures he was taking would be nothing but perfection!! He is a wonderful person and great to work with!! Jason is extremely professional but also creates a warm and welcoming environment for not only for the bride and groom but everyone attending the wedding!!!!

1/7/2023 Wedding

When looking for photographers the obvious path is to look at price and look at their portfolios of previous weddings they shot. With Your Story, the value was there from those two categories but they really proved valuable to us when going through the process of planning our day through an amazing collaboration process. We leaned on them for their experiences and what works best but they made constant effort to hear and included the pieces that were most important for us (notes to parents, first look from father of the bride etc.). Emily was the lead photographer at our wedding and she did an amazing job! We are so happy with how our pictures turned out! We would highly recommend Your Story to anyone!

Best photo vendor in the industry!

If you’re looking for your photo needs, look no further than Your Story Photo + Cinema. Jeremy and Melissa were amazing to work with! They made the whole wedding day so seamless and easy. My husband and I felt like we were working with friends through the whole process. We used them for our engagement photos and wedding photos and everything turned out BEAUTIFUL. 100% would recommend Jeremy and Melissa!

Excellent Wedding Photographer!

Everyone tells you your wedding day goes by so fast. They weren’t lying! Being able to look back at our day through these photos is something we will always be grateful for. Emily was the utmost professional making sure every photo on our ‘must haves’ list were captured. The prep prior to the wedding was awesome. I was never concerned about the day of details because Your Story and Emily are so organized and provide you with a ton of details prior to your wedding day. I highly recommend Your Story for your photography needs!

Outstanding

Your Story Photo + Cinema (Jeremy + Melissa) did an OUTSTANDING job! I would highly recommend them to anyone. They were very professional & kind. From the detailed pictures to the big pictures they captured it all from our engagement photos to our wedding photos. I am so happy I choose them. Melissa was amazing because she really cares… she helped me bustle my dress when my mom/bridesmaids had “bustle amnesia” lol & Jeremy captures unique/fun/artistic/amazing photos! They truly are a dynamite duo. Thank you so much for capturing our special day!

Best Wedding Photogs EVER!

Jeremy & Melisa are TOP NOTCH. We highly, highly, highly recommend. Not only are our photos stunning (like seriously, we cannot stop looking at them) the customer service offered was incredible. They were easy to contact, quick to reply, readily accessible, incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. Our wedding package included engagement photos, which were equally as beautiful. Finding a wedding photographer that we 'clicked with' was the most difficult part of wedding planning for me - until I had my first phone call with Jeremy. I instantly felt comfortable, like I was talking to a friend. I'm trying to figure out what other events we could get photographed so we can see them again, lol (but seriously). HIRE THIS COMPANY! You will not be disappointed.

Your Story was the perfect choice for us!

When planning a wedding, you know from the get go the process might be a bumpy road. From our view, every decision was carefully looked over, and thoroughly researched; and why would you not? It’s the biggest day of your life, and you have to find someone who you trust to document ten or so hours of your life that you can’t do a “second take.” And that means everything must be perfect, and while nothing in life is perfect, my wife and I picked the perfect people to document the best day of our lives.

It doesn’t matter if you’re in a business setting, or on a personal level, comfortability is everything, and that is where Jeremy and Melisa shine. It was incredibly reassuring knowing that while so much was going on around us during the day, we could trust them to call the rights shots to make sure everything was photographed and captured Perfectly; and it was.
As your reading this, you know weddings are expensive, and you’ll have to deceiver what works in your budget and what doesn’t. Do yourself and a favor and don’t skimp on the photographers. Throughout the day, Jeremy and Melisa served as of course the photographers, but much more… They guided us and our wedding party through a few hoops, but never lost their cool. In fact, while the wedding party was running late to the ceremony, my wife’s lipstick fell on her dress. While people were understandably freaking out, Melisa kept her cool by pinning the dress, completely concealing the red stain. Meg said Melisa literally saved the day. As the day progressed, my wife and I kept saying to each other how glad we were that we hired “Your Story.”
Their presence was there, but it wasn’t. Jeremy and Melisa captured every moment of the biggest day of our lives while being a fly on the wall. They made suggestions to us, but weren’t pushy. At the end of day, we trusted Jeremy and Melisa to capture and document the most precious 24 hours we’ve ever endured, and they did exactly that, plus some.

“Your Story” isn’t just the name of the company, it’s their backbone and what they stand for…meaning it’s your day, it’s your life, it’s your moment, they just aspire to capture it to the fullest… and they certainly did for that us.

Wedding/ Engagement Photos

We had Jason for both our engagement photos and wedding and loved all of the photos! Jason was very friendly and easy to work with, we had both our dogs for our engagement photos and got great pictures with them. It was a great process the entire time and easy to communicate any questions we had with fast responses! Highly recommend them, they will make your wedding pictures dreams come true!

A must! One of the best parts from our day!

Your Story was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day! From the first meeting with Jeremy and Austin we felt so immediately comfortable with them, that we walked out knowing we were going to choose them no question! Austin was so friendly and kind and did a great job of making this awkward bride feel comfortable for both our engagement session and our full wedding day. He made our gloomy engagement photo day look like a beautiful sunset photo shoot in the pictures. He was also able to wrangle or wedding crowd with ease and made our photos fun, with some goofy poses thrown in that gave us hilarious photos that were all we ever wanted :) The only bad part was how hard they made it to narrow down photos for our album, as our selection was extensive and all so beautiful!! We highly recommend them for your day! You can’t go wrong!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
