Capturing real moments and raw emotion starts with trust - trusting us enough to be your true, authentic selves. We promise to always show up as ourselves, and together we can document your love story organically, and have a great f*cking time doing it!
To us, being your photographers is more than just taking pretty photos, it's also about providing an experience and encouraging you to be fully present in the moment.
Real moments, authentic interaction & timeless imagery
We want to capture your day in a way that allows you to relive it each time you look through your gallery.
We've heard it all before, and we're here to tell you, WE GOT YOU! Photos SHOULD be fun, and that's where we come in! Our goal is for you to be so in your element that you forget we're even pointing our cameras at you. We'll of course be there to guide you, but our goal is always to prompt genuine interaction and movement, rather than stiff and awkward posing. We take a cinematic and storytelling approach to photographing your biggest day - we're there to capture both the big and small moments, the belly laughs and happy tears, your parent smiling at you from across the room, and even your sweet Grandparents getting down on the dance floor.
"We don't know how to pose. What do I do with my hands? Where do I look? What do I wear?"
We get it, being in front of the camera is not the most natural thing in the world.
You value good conversation and authentic connection
You enjoy traveling and new experiences
You're unapologetically yourself
You love a Taco Tuesday and maybe 1 too many margs
Most of all, you romanticize your life and value preserving your memories

Kenzie & Nick Holderbaum
These are just everything we ever wanted and they are just so us and absolutely perfect in every way. To have so perfectly captured the day as beautifully as remembered is truly a gift that we can never ever repay you for.
"From the bottom of our hearts - thank you, thank you, thank you.""
ALAINA & ANTHONY IOVINO
They are PERFECT and more than anything we could’ve dreamed! Truly thank you for capturing the emotions of our entire weekend so beautifully and perfectly. I cry and laugh every time I look through them and find a new photo or detail I previously missed. And beyond the photos themselves, thank you again for everything you did for us during our wedding weekend. You and Ross played a huge part in the calmness of the wedding day itself and allowed me, Anthony, and our families to be so present and enjoy the day.
"WE’RE SO GRATEFUL FOR YOU AND I AM ALREADY PLANNING OUR ANNIVERSARY SESSION"
HANNAH & MARK SIMONDS
We literally picked our wedding date around Lauren and Ross’ availability, because that is the one thing I wasn’t willing to compromise on! They are honestly the nicest, most down to earth, fun, and incredibly talented photographers! Our engagement shoot was the first time my now husband and I took photos like that together, and Lauren and Ross made it so easy and natural.
"OUR WEDDING PHOTOS WENT SO SMOOTHLY, AHEAD OF SCHEDULE AND WERE SUCH A BLAST."
Allie & Kyle Zander
Off Path Photography did our engagement and wedding photos and stuck with us all the way through our middle of the pandemic wedding and all the changes/craziness. The photos are always amazing, they seem to capture all of the spontaneous moments. We chose not to have a videographer for our wedding due to cost and I feel like all of the photos taken at the reception/ceremony tell the story of the night without the need for a video. Not only are the photos amazing but Lauren and Ross are the best kind of people! My husband hates having his photo taken but they always make you feel comfortable and make photos a fun experience. After the wedding we used Off Path Photo for family photos and an in-home shoot. I would highly recommend them for any photoshoot and will continue to always use them for any more professional photos!!"
"I can’t say enough good things about Lauren and Ross!!"
Bridget & Anthony Monaco
We did our engagement session with them in Colorado and had the great joy of having them with us on our wedding day in Ohio. I am a little bit of a nervous nelly in front of the camera but Lauren and Ross immediately helped me feel comfortable and confident. I still cannot believe our photos are as incredible as they are! On our wedding day, they were not only able to capture the emotion of the day beautifully but they were also there for us in whatever way we needed. They are such wonderful people through and through! Hope to see you guys again soon!
"I could not possibly recommend Lauren and Ross more!"
Sophia & Tom
They are two of the coolest humans to hang out with. We laughed all day & literally felt like we had been friends forever. They are very much the type of people you just want to grab a beer with on the weekend. Because of these two, we’re actually glad our original wedding was cancelled. What was probably the most stressful/disappointing time in our life turned out to be the absolute best day! We 100000% owe all of it to Off Path Photography! They went so above and beyond for us and we will never be able to thank them enough. We feel so lucky to have had them shoot our elopement AND we get them for our wedding celebration! So if you’re looking for a wedding, engagement or elopement photographer... STOP LOOKING. THESE ARE YOUR PEOPLE!
"They take away all the “awkwardness” of posing for pictures and will be your biggest hype people."
Alli & Chris Valaika
I spent a long time searching for photographers that lean toward naturally beautiful, organic, and scenic photographs. I couldn’t be more happy with our photos. We also had a blast and were given some direction without feeling posed. 100000% would recommend this awesome couple!
"Truly the most fun we have ever had taking pictures"
Erika & Sage Gardner
We were fortunate enough to work with such an amazing duo! Lauren and Ross were so organized, accommodating, personable and fun. Their passion for photography can be easily recognized in their work. 11/10 recommend!
"Lauren and Ross were so organized, accommodating, personable and fun."
Amanda & Greg Kerr
My husband and I had the best experience with Lauren and Ross as our photographers for our wedding. When we did our engagement photos, I knew we picked the best of the best because they were so fun and made the experience very laid back and comfortable. On our wedding day they helped so much! They are very professional and worked well with our other vendors to help make it the best day ever. We got our photos back quickly and are obsessed with all of them! We will definitely be looking back at these photos for the rest of our lives and remember how special it was. We would recommend Off Path Photography to everyone and not just for weddings! They even helped my husband with getting some professional photos for a website he was launching. They can do it all.
"On our wedding day they helped so much!"
You're married! WOO! Soak it all in and enjoy your best day ever!
