CAPTURING YOUR STORY
with HEART AND ARTISTRY
Ohio Wedding Photographer
As a Cleveland Ohio Film Wedding Photographer I am known for my signature blend of timeless elegance and modern-romantic style.
Courtney Paige Photography captures the essence of your love story with a relaxed approach and emotive imagery. My style sits at the intersection of in-the-moment documentary storytelling and expertly-posed portraits that you'll cherish for generations to come.
I believe in the power of great stories, the eternal nature of a timeless style, and that there is no such thing as too much coffee.
“She made our wedding day unforgettable.”
— Kelsey, past bride
“You captured who we truly are.”
— Britt and Mere, Past couple
The Style
My work is about more than just capturing moments—it’s about honoring the love, connection, and joy that define your wedding day. From the big, sweeping scenes to the quiet, intimate details, I’m committed to documenting your day as it truly is.
With every frame, my focus is on creating images that feel effortless and authentic, so you can look back on them and remember exactly how it felt to be there, surrounded by the people you love.
The Story
It all began with the love and legacy of my great-grandparents, whose 50-year marriage taught me the power of timeless moments. Their cherished anniversary portrait inspires me to capture the essence of your day—creating images that celebrate your unique journey and with a deep focus on standing the test of time.
The Method
Working with couples who appreciate both artistry and authenticity, I’ve developed a refined approach that balances the two seamlessly. I’m there to guide you through those timeless portraits with ease, ensuring they’re nothing short of stunning, but I also know when to step back and let the magic of your day unfold naturally.
It’s this combination of direction and discretion that allows me to create images that are both elegant and evocative, without ever intruding on your experience.
BEHIND
the LENS
I'M COURTNEY. I'M AN ENNEAGRAM 2 TO MY CORE, FOODIE, WIFE, MOM, LOVER OF NEW EXPERIENCES
Photography has been a part of my life for over a decade, but my love for storytelling began long before that. As a collector of old family photos, I understand the profound connections that bind loved ones together and how quickly precious moments can slip by.
I aim to capture those fleeting, heartfelt interactions so that years from now, each image feels like stepping back into that moment.

INSPIRATION
Travel / Great Light / Family / Old Albums / Architecture / The Mountains / Strong Coffee / A Homecooked Meal / Time To Recharge
You deserve to *enjoy* your day — hire a planner!
(And so do your friends and family.) Which is why we primarily accept weddings with planners — ask for a list of our favorites!
The best inspiration comes from life, not from Pinterest.
I am so excited to work to make your images as original as you are. So let's leave that mood board for engagement shoot outfit inspo, ok?
I love it when you bring us your ideas, then trust in the reason you hired us.
And if you give us freedom to create, we'll give you much more than the shot list.
Do whatever you can to truly be present.
Some traditions kind of suck — our favorite celebrations are with couples who are willing to do it their own way.
Trust us – a great DJ is worth their weight in gold.
If you want to have a legendary night, you want people on the dance floor and you want them to not be hungry. Forget the tiny candles.
Have the wedding you want, not the wedding they want.
Your friends just want to party with you. Don't get so caught up with keeping up that you forget to have fun.
