Shelley + Portugal 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Oakland, KY

Hey! We're Shelley + Portugal. We met on Instagram and fell in love over FaceTime. A shared interest in roadkill portraiture is what brought us together (it’s a funny story), but what compelled us to exchange numbers and talk every day for 3 months was the fact that we were both seeking the same things out of life. Nothing about our story is conventional (and it goes against every warning from our parents against Internet stranger danger) but despite the “what-ifs” and the long-distance logistics, we said yes. And in saying yes to something we couldn’t fully comprehend, we were unknowingly saying "yes" to a life full of adventure together.

Awarded Best of Zola
Honestly, Alex and I do not even know where to begin in expressing our gratitude for Shelley + Portugal. Not only are they quite possibly the most incredible humans on the entire planet, their passion for capturing quiet moments, love, and their service towards others is incomparable. In a business where people are not always put over profit, we can say confidently that you will not ever have to worry about coming second if you choose Shelley + Portugal as your wedding photographers and/or videographers. Alex and I originally fell in love with Shelley + Portugal's ability to capture the most personal, intimate moments of other folk's weddings, but we became head over heels for them in a myriad of other ways. Alex and I have come to find out that rain is just always going to be a part of our lives when it comes to major events. After having our engagement photos scheduled for what seemed like forever in advance, Mother Nature blessed us with a major storm, cancelling our session. If my memory serves me correctly, I was definitely being dramatic, but I for sure cried. But, when the storm passed sooner than expected and left us with some beautiful golden hour sunlight, Shelley came texting wanting to know if we still wanted to come out to catch the most gorgeous rays. She could have just moved on with her life and chalked it up to Fate, but instead, Shelley went above and beyond for us, giving us some of our most treasured photos and memories. Lo and behold, when it came it our wedding day, you can probably guess what happened. It rained and stormed, leaving us to scrap a year's worth of outdoor plans and move it indoor 24 hours before the ceremony. Again, I was being dramatic, but I definitely cried and unapologetically panic texted Shelley. Repeatedly. Like, I'm thinking, probably six texts in a row. And Shelley so kindly responded to all panic texts with kindness in the way only an Enneagram Type 1 can, words of affirmations, and promises that her and Portugal would take care of the rest. And, take care of the rest they did. I had not an absolute ounce of worry on the big day because they had it handled. How they are both photographers and certified meteorologists* (okay, not really, but they should be), is beyond me. The mud? Handled. My massive family portraits? HANDLED. Getting my husband and his groomsmen group to the venue site ON-TIME? Perfectly executed. I would considered having my money's worth with just those feats. But, instead, they were even more gracious and captured the most incredible wedding photos, including our split-second golden hour rays while we danced in the rain. Pretty full circle if you ask me. So, if you're still here- you need to book Shelley + Portugal for all your engagement/wedding needs. You won't regret it. Time will pass and it will be six months later and you'll still cry over your photos/videos. They might even come to Hilligan's with you post-BG wedding if you ask them. We love you and we like you, Shelley + Portugal. (Update: since our wedding photos, Shelley has been the only photographer we trust for family portraits. she gave us our final photos with our beloved dog, Johnny, before his passing and gave us our first few photos of our recent rescue, Gus. if my list for trusting people to capture my wedding was short, my list of people I trust to capture our dying dog for the last time is even fewer. they will be your photogs and friends for life. we still love you & like you, S & P.)

My husband is my second photographer, so we come as a photo team! Just like you, I have felt awkward in front of the camera. I’ve had photos taken of me that I didn’t like. When you go on a session with me, I will not only make you feel comfortable, but I will make sure you look good! I will give you prompts to keep you moving so you look and feel natural and comfortable. I’m sorry but there are some angles, and poses that are not flattering for everyone. Like, please don’t take a photo of me from below! Hello double chin! What I’m saying is, I Got You!

Lacie was absolutely phenomenal to work with throughout the entire wedding planning process. From the moment we jumped on a phone call to see if they were a right fit, I knew they would be. Her enthusiasm, understanding, outgoing way that she relates to people is an energy that you want on your big day. Our engagement session was incredible, she moves so quickly but efficiently, as to ensure you get all the shots you want, but is very mindful of time. Our wedding day was COMPLETE because of Lacie. In addition to her positive attitude, she helped smooth the timeline of events during the day when exterior factors were impacting the photography, and problem solved so wonderfully on the spot. She stepped in to help in moments that were above and beyond what we hired her for, and for that I am truly grateful. Her photography style is versatile and beautiful, specifically catered to your preference. I can't imagine a better photographer for our wedding and we are so grateful!

We were stoked. He was amazing to work with on the wedding day - punctual, friendly, got all the requested shots, and the whole bridal party loved him. We got our pictures back today - and they’re so much better than we could have dreamed of. It’s no wonder he was featured in Vogue - his work is artistic, candid, and beautiful.

If adventure makes your heart beat fast, you don't mind straying from tradition, sarcasm and retro music are your love languages, and if you're down to frolic through an open field with me, we'll be best friends in no time. When you choose your wedding photographer, it's about so much more than just hiring a professional to take your photos - it's about connecting with someone who'll capture your special day with intention. So be sure to ask all your questions, and make sure you *click* (pun intended) with the person behind the camera!

Faith is one of the most intentional people I’ve met — she was there every step of the way during wedding planning to support us and provided so much comfort and overall good vibes on the day of! I felt so at ease the entire wedding day, and I credit that to our incredible vendor team, Faith and her team included. I received so many sneak peek pics just under a week after my wedding (a few I got almost immediately!!), and it was amazing to be able to relive those moments already and share them with friends and family. Seeing how she captured these moments, big and small, makes me SO excited to see the final gallery!!! Her editing style is simply gorgeous — it was the main reason I reached out to her initially — but she’s also just a wonderful friend and human. When you already feel like you know someone, it makes it so much easier to be your authentic selves in front of the camera, and for that to shine through in photos. We both have so much love for Faith and are forever grateful she was there to document the beginning of the newest chapter of our love story

I’m thrilled to meet you and start creating a connection! I began photographing weddings four years ago and quickly realized the most meaningful moments are unscripted—raw, emotional, and unforgettable. Capturing these authentic experiences is my passion. With a background as an outdoor educator and a wilderness therapist, I bring a unique perspective and skill set to wedding photography. Whether guiding backpacking trips or earning a Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, each chapter of my life has shaped my ability to support couples with humor, care, and creativity. Let’s capture your day exactly as it unfolds!

I chose Foxtail to take our family pictures, our first picture with our new baby. These were supposed to be very special photos that I was to cherish forever. Before even speaking over the phone, or getting pricing, I chose her because I LOVED her editing style. I knew she was the one. However after speaking to her over the phone my choice was 100000% solidified. So friendly, informative, flexible, creative, and open-minded. She did not bat an eye or show frustration towards me when I changed our shoot location multiple times. Our session was absolutely perfect. She makes you so comfortable in front of the camera & will even fix your hair !! and when we received our gallery, I was blown away by the quality of her work and just how beautiful our photos turned out.

From the moment we met them during our engagement shoot, they instantly made us feel at ease, turning what could have been a nerve-wracking experience into something genuinely fun and unforgettable. Their warm personalities, unmatched professionalism, and creative vision were evident right from the start. When it came to our wedding day—the most important day of our lives—they didn’t just capture moments; they captured the very essence of love, joy, and celebration that surrounded us. They didn’t feel like vendors; they felt like family, celebrating alongside us while documenting each precious second. They even covered us in prayer, which meant so much to us. Raphael worked through an injury without us knowing, simply because he didn’t want us to adjust anything for him. That level of dedication and selflessness left us in awe. They don’t just take pictures and record videos; they weave a story from the beginning to the end, preserving the magic and emotions in a way that’s truly extraordinary. And I just don’t even know where to begin with Rasheeda. We met through a Facebook post I replied to—one I initially thought was a scam. Boy, was I wrong! She and I ended up talking that very same day for over an hour, and it felt like we’d known each other forever. From the start, it was never just a business transaction; it felt like family helping to prepare for the big moments in life. Her warmth and genuine care meant everything to us. I don’t know what I did to be so lucky to have crossed paths with this amazing team, but I am forever grateful that we did. I honestly feel like I should keep them on retainer for every milestone in life because I cannot imagine anyone else being able to document such meaningful moments with the care and dedication they do. Choosing them was one of the best decisions we made, and we couldn’t recommend them more highly! Jerome and I are so grateful for the both of you.

Lu's Lens Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,200
  • Serves Oakland, KY

I am the owner and head photographer of Lu's Lens Photography. I do 95% of the work with the exception of the occasional 2nd photographer or editor. And hey, I know how to run a business, too! I graduated from Northwood University with a Bachelors in Business, but there's no teaching an eye for photography - I see the moment before it even happens. I build out all the wedding timelines with my couples, so I'm on top of your details just as much as you. I travel everywhere but mainly in Michigan and Tennessee.

Awarded Best of Zola
I don't even know where to begin, Hannah is a ray of sunshine in human form. Not only, does she make being in front of the camera comfortable and easy, but she does so with humor and professionalism that cannot be taught. My husband usually turns into a cardboard statue in front of the camera, and within minutes he was comfortable, laughing and having a great time. This is all on top of the fact that her artistic, photographic style is unmatched. Her ability to take a sweet moment and turn it into art is a gift that lasts a lifetime. I have been fortunate enough to work with Hannah on all of our major life events and I will continue to do so until she fires me as a client. I love her and I promise you will too!
