Wedgewood Weddings

Taylor & Chad

"Laura was the wedding photographer of my dreams. She was everything that my spouse and I could have wanted and more. From the initial contact with her, the first meeting, coordination before and after the wedding she was a true professional and we both knew we would be in good hands. We actually booked Laura right before the corona virus pandemic hit, and we were all set to get married in November of 2020. We decided to postpone the venue wedding and have an intimate wedding ceremony in a family member's backyard. Laura was more than accommodating during this time; she had already thought about how to best help her pandemic couples and worked out with us seamlessly, photographing our intimate wedding and then the venue wedding in August of 2021. At both weddings the photos were beyond spectacular. We loved each and every picture, every one was taken with care and processed flawlessly. To best put together words for her work I’ll leave what my father told me after we had received pictures from the venue wedding earlier this year: “Damn she is a great photographer!”
Also, Laura was so good at getting photos of literally everyone at our large venue wedding! She got pictures of each couple dancing, everyone having fun, and that was on top of us requesting other photos! She really went above and beyond."

Tara & John

"Laura is a fantastic photographer who was very thoughtful and flexible. If you're doing anything outdoors, she really knows how to work with light and get you in positions that will yield some phenomenal photos. Kids are a breeze for her - she knows how to really get candid photos of them and get their attention for portraits. Her final product is well organized by the various parts of the wedding including a summary of her favorites. This final product comes in a timely manner so you don't feel like you're waiting. Your won't be disappointed if you use Laura for your engagement and wedding photos!"

"I contacted Laura 1 month before my wedding because a dear friend of mine had just booked her & hired her for her wedding and her standards are incredibly high (as are mine!). So after a quick 10 minute call Laura & I were in business! She took the time to learn a bit about how my now husband & I met and & I was fortunate enough that she was available for the day of my wedding day for I am OBSESSED with all of my photographs, every single one of them turned out amazing. Laura takes pride in her work and the candid photos are simply stunning, as is her work! I highly recommend her to anyone looking to have memories that will last a lifetime."

“Laura was an amazing part of our wedding. She was discrete when taking our ceremony photos and everything she captured was truly amazing. I enjoyed her personality and the moments captured in her photos were priceless. From our first look to the reception she was on top of all of the important moments without us needing to worry about it. Her photos came out clear, vibrant and she really caught all of the emotions especially candid ones throughout the day. I would recommend her to any bride who loves genuine photographs for their day.”

Jim & Adelina

"From the moment I walked into Laura Segall's office, I knew no other photographer would be able to capture the authentic moments of one of the most important days of my life. With every still, her passion and artistic talent bled through the photos shot so beautifully, each candid expression told a story as they came alive in the period they were captured. I became emotional looking at some of the photos of the moments I missed and the ones I remembered, so happy she was able to record them. I cannot express how much her photos touched me!!! Laura is extremely professional, easy to work with, is a great listener, and will try to accommodate your needs and desires. We were very honored to have her as our photographer for our wedding."

“Laura is the best! Her talent speaks for itself and even more importantly she really listens to what you want and are expecting. She had my emailed list of portraits that I wanted in her hand so she wouldn't miss any! She has a very calm, quiet demeanor which helps you feel more relaxed and even forget that she's there taking pictures sometimes. Everyone said she was like my personal paparazzi all night long and everyone has raved about how great the pictures turned out!
