Shawna and her team were all so kind and fun to work with on our wedding day! We are so excited to get our wedding photos and video back!
Shawna was great to work with! I'm obsessed with how my wedding photos turned out and my ceremony video. She was fantastic at posing us for our photos and she and her team captured amazing moments beautifully!
I got married nearly 6 years ago in 2016, so I'm posting a little late. I'm hoping to offer a review from the perspective of someone who has had some time pass since their wedding day because that's what the photos are for! I am not a fan of posed photos because I feel like I don't act naturally when the camera is on me. I told RQP that I really wanted candid photos, and it would be great if I didn't really notice when they were taking them. After the wedding, I was a little worried that I didn't see them snapping a lot of photos but I was so wrong - they did EXACTLY what I had asked. We have so many wonderful shots of us laughing, dancing, and sharing moments that I absolutely love. They captured everything perfectly and thanks to RQP I can look at our pictures and remember exactly how fun our wedding night was.
THE. BEST.
I didn't know where to start, so I started with the conclusion... Red Queen Photography is simply the best. Shawna did our engagement photoshoot, and with her bubbly personality, she made the whole shoot enjoyable. She went out of her way through the wedding planning process to put us first, whether that be multiple in person meetings or text responses right away.
Our wedding day trio was Shawna and Ashley on photography and Ben on videography. These three NAILED IT!! The husband-wife dynamic of the photographer/videographer was an extra special touch on our wedding day. They made sure we had every shot, every angle, every detail that we wanted, and stuck with us for hours. to capture our day. Shawna truly went above and beyond being there with us for 12+ hours and being there to help not only capture the day but everything else... such as keeping us on schedule, handling the photobooth set up/tear down, fixing my dress bustle (multiple times!)... She truly does amazing photography work, but her personality and spunk is what sold us on Red Queen. From Day One, she make us feel like a lifelong friend, which is exactly who you want by your side on your wedding day.
I cannot recommend them enough! Absolutely incredible!!
We had RQP (Shawna) photograph our engagement pictures and our wedding! She was absolutely perfect! The pictures are AMAZING and she really made our entire wedding day go so smoothly! She is a joy to work with! I recommend her to everyone!
Shawna and her team were amazing to work with. We even had to change the date of our wedding and she was able to move with us!! Thank gosh!! She made our engagement photos feel like we have known her forever, laughing the whole way through. Day of the wedding she hung with us girls all day and even became a part of one of our games and took one for the team (
a licked arm) lol. She had ideas for photos and kept the bridal party moving and organized. Not to mention her and her team kept track of the 3 littles who were apart of the wedding party that day! Our photos turned out beautiful and we cannot wait for our video! Thank you a million times!!
Shawna and her team are AMAZING!! First, we had our engagement session with Shawna and she made it so easy! Both of us had never had our photos taken like that before, so we were pretty nervous but she made us feel so comfortable. When it came to our wedding, they made the day SO MUCH FUN! Our whole bridal party mentioned how fun the whole team was and people even asked if we all knew each other before! We had some down time during the day and it was so fun just hanging out and chatting with Shawna. I cannot wait to see the photos of our wedding and I am so glad we chose Shawna to be our photographer.
Absolutely amazing! Shawna and her assistant went above and beyond on our wedding day and the pictures are beautiful! She was professional, organized, and fun! We are so glad we picked her for our wedding day and can’t wait to look at these timeless photos forever!
We originally chose Red Queen after meeting with Shawna and fell in love with her photos. We paid the deposit and had our engagement session, and we liked a few of the photos. Sadly Covid19 hit and we had to postpone our wedding from May to July, she was booked on our new date but we trusted her to put together a team to capture our wedding on the new date.
Even before the first date it was extremely hard to get in contact with her. And after the date change it was impossible, we emailed, text, called everything with no response. We just wanted to make sure everything was set and wanted to see example photos of the people covering for her.
Well we didn't hear back for over 1.5 months, so we decided to move on to another photographer and basically paid $500 for a 30 min engagement session. As soon as we emailed her to let her know we no longer needed her services she got back right away.
Shawna and Jason were so much fun to work with. They made us feel comfortable when we needed it and ran with our ideas when we asked for it. We absolutely love the natural feel of our photos and they captured so many beautiful moments.
Shawna was absolutely amazing! She was very accommodating when our wedding day was predicted to have rain. She worked with us to have our pictures taken the day before as well as wedding pictures inside the reception. She was able to turn our awkwardness into charm with our pictures. She was also very responsive with getting back to us as well as keeping us on track. Thanks Shawna!
Shawna was great to work with! I met with a lot of photographers for our wedding but ultimately decided to go with Shawna because I liked the way we hit it off when we first met. Our engagement pictures were a lot of fun and she was willing to keep shooting until we felt we had enough. Our friends and family also enjoyed working with her too! While it did take a little bit to get our photos back they turned out amazing!
Shawna and Jason did an amazing job photographing my wedding! They were fun and willing to work with every spontaneous crazy idea my wedding party threw at them! I cannot wait to get my photos back! I highly recommend Red Queen Photography!
If you want a great photographer and someone who is just all around amazing...this is your gal! My fiancé and I fell in love with her at Bridalrama and instantly just clicked! I knew before we left her booth she was who we were going to go with! She has done nothing but capture the essence of mine and Evan‘s relationship in our photos and I honestly couldn’t be happier! Five out of five stars all around! Red Queen Photography will be the only photographer I will use down the line!
I can't say enough positive about Shawna and her assistant, Kelly. They recently photographed my daughter and son-in-law's wedding and did a fantastic job! They not only had to try and capture amazing shots, they also had to corral a very large bridal party (including three children) - not an easy feat! I can't wait to see the final products.
You are absolutely amazing! Engagement photos were perFect. I look forward to spending the day with you capturing all the memories of our daughters wedding!! Can't wait to see all the wonderful pics! If anyone is looking for a photographer look no further Red Queen Photography will not let you down absolutely awesome! !!!!
Shauna is absolutely amazing!! She has done multiple shoots for me and each one outdoes the next! She is so friendly and inviting and wants to make sure you feel special in every moment. Her creative eye and use of natural lights make for a stunning photo finish! 10/10 recommend using her for your wedding! Super knowledgeable on great photo locations as well!!
Shawna is amazing! We used her for a mini session and felt SO comfortable! She had us laughing and feeling so good the entire time! Highly recommend for your wedding needs!
Shawna with Red Queen Photography is simply amazing. She has made me feel comfortable ever step of the way through this wedding planning process. She has allowed me to text her and call her to ask her questions and has not shown any sign of frustration from this nervous bride to be. Our engagement pictures were simply beautiful as well! Over all I am pleased with my choice of choosing this photography company and the pictures I have received! I am so excited to continue to work with Shawna and to have her take our wedding photos! Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️
Shawna is AMAZING! She really has this beautifully creative vision that all just works out perfectly. Most importantly, she's the sweetest to work with! I 100 million times recommend her - every single time! 🥰
I HIGHLY recommend this photographer!! I just got married this weekend and I could not wait to get home and tell everyone how great Shawna was!! She was incredibly professional and knew how to get everyone organized for photos. She took photos from every angle and made sure to get all of the shots we wanted! We took photos and several locations and she was with us for almost the entire day as we got ready, first look, and before wedding shots. Shawna also did our engagement shots, which were beyond incredible. Absolutely recommend this photographer!!!
While we still await to see photos from our recent wedding, my husband and I were so happy already that we worked with RQP. Jason and Kelly were so wonderful to work with on what could have been a very stressful day.
They kept us laughing, and made the shots feel natural and relaxed. Prior to the wedding, my husband and I met up with Jason to go over the wedding time line, and to go over shots that were important to us. That kind of tailoring and attention to detail was wonderful, and so very appreciated even by a laid back bride.
I initially picked RQP because while every photo is clear and lovely, the photos aren't over-edited, in the best way. They look natural and I'm sure there are retouches, but it's not blatantly obvious. Their cost, considering the product, is extremely reasonable. Photographs are so important to many couples, as it is a way to relive the wedding, and so the cost wasn't so much the issue as value for money.
I'd recommend RQP to any bride who asked.
My husband Michael and I got married this summer in Covington at The Madison. Shawna was amazing! She captured every moment of our special day. We absolutely love our wedding photos and can't stop looking at them! Red Queen was very easy to work with and went above and beyond. Thank you for being a part of our special day!
I am obsessed with my wedding photos!!! They are so great!! Thank you so much RQP
Red Queen is Amazing! I can’t wait to use them for the future!
Shawna is amazing! She worked so hard the day of you will not regret choosing her!
Shawna was the perfect photographer for my mid-October wedding on a rainy day. Somehow she just always managed to be near when I wanted to request a special photo, but was so inconspicuous I often forgot she was there. She was very calming in the pre-wedding chaos, and her presence put me at ease. I highly recommend her.
Shawna did some great pictures for us! The price was great and the time she spent with us was amazing and unexpected! We will recommend her to our friends!
Shawna was fantastic! She made sure that we stayed on schedule with our photo timeline throughout the whole day. She provided fantastic photos that we will cherish forever. I would highly recommend her for a wedding photographer.
Shawna is THE best wedding photographer! She perfectly captures the feeling of your events.
She was basically a wedding coordinator with a camera on our wedding day! People kept asking if she was in charge of everything. She was with us all day and her photos are going to give us tears for the rest of our lives. They managed to capture how much I love my wife in their pictures, which was something I saw in their pictures of so many other couples. Every person we saw who got a save the date thought they were wonderful. They made us feel so at ease! I scoured so many photographers and I fell in love with Red Queen’s shadowy outdoor pictures, the loving exchanges of the brides and grooms, and the symmetry they seemed to capture while maintaining the overall aesthetic of the scene. They have better wedding packages than so many others. I wish I could have had Shawna and Jason as friends for years and that type of relationship in a photographer made my wedding day feel completely natural. Jason was going through shoulder trouble on the day of our wedding and they had Kelly sub for him. We trusted Shawna sow much that we knew she would be fantastic. There is no situation she can’t handle. Crying flower girl? Cue popping Hello kitty. Mother of the groom walks in 45 minutes late in sweats? You’ll see Shawna walking that lady away calmly directing her toward the dress she should have on. Our wedding day was perfect because of Shawna and Red Queen Photography. I honestly feel blessed that they shot our wedding and I will forever be in their debt for how awesome they were at our wedding.
Shawna and Jason did an absolute wonderful job with our pictures! We absolutely loved the engagement and wedding pictures! They engaged everyone and made sure to caption the precious moments! We even had to change up some of the wedding timeline stuff the day of and they made all the necessary changes! Sometimes they were hard to get a hold of, so phone them rather than email! Also Shawna did a great job designing our guest book! Do the photo booth too! It’s really fun and the guests love it!
Shawna was absolutely amazing leading up to the wedding day and the day of my wedding. She always answered her phone whenever I had questions. The day of the wedding, she was on time and captured all of the moments I could have asked for. Her work is absolutely beautiful and I recommend her to any bride looking for a photographer.
Pick Red Queen Photography!!! Jason and Shawna are AWESOME! They were so much fun to work with and made the agony of lots and lots of wedding photos a breeze! They engaged the entire wedding party and had everyone laughing. The pictures turned out amazing! AND on a gorgeous memorable flash drive! Our photo booth pictures turned out great too, since they were taken personally by Jason with a real camera (not a booth). They were very reasonable with pricing as well. Everyone knows that wedding photos can cost as much as a venue, but not with RQP, you’ll get great quality for a very fair price. I highly recommend them!
Shawna and Jason are wonderful! They photographed our wedding and it was like hanging out with old friends. They made the day so enjoyable and the photos turned out stunning. I can’t wait to have the photograph our little one. Please consider Red Queen for all your photos!
My husband and I used Red Queen Photography for our engagement and wedding photos. Jason and Shawna did an awesome job!

Jason and Shawna are an awesome team! We received several comments on our wedding day from my mom and bridesmaids who were amazed at how thorough they were- they captured every moment! I am not photogenic and can be awkward but none of that came through in the photos and I had no idea how much I smiled around my husband until I saw the photos. I did a lot of research before hiring a photographer and after meeting with Jason I knew they were the perfect choice. One of the best things about booking Red Queen Photography is how they customize the package to fit your budget-the value that they offer can’t be beat. I highly recommend them and can’t wait to contact them for our future big life moments!
My husband and I went with Red Queen Photography and I'm so happy we did. They did a great job with all of the shots before the Wedding with the 1st look and with the whole bridal party. The photographer's were able to keep up with our crazy and fun group, and made the whole day and night feel beyond special for us. They just went with the flow with everything and made it fun, a day we would never forget. I highly recommend Red Queen Photography to everyone. The prices are very reasonable, and the service is great. We will be using Red Queen Photography again in the future for some family pictures. Thank you again guys we couldn't be happier.
Red Queen Photography was a joy to work with and took the most beautiful photos on our wedding day! My husband and I are so grateful for their friendly nature, hard work, and beautiful photos! I would recommend this company to anyone!
Jason and Shawna were awesome! Red Queen did my best friends wedding about two years ago and after seeing them at her wedding I new once I got married I wanted to use them. I got engaged that Christmas and they were one of the first people I contacted about my special day. They are love to have fun and work their hardest to get that perfect shot! We had so much fun on the day of our wedding with and them and everyone loved the photo booth. I cannot wait to see our pictures of the big day, I n ow they will be great! Thank you so much for making g our special day remeberable!
I can't even begin to tell you how great RQP is. Jason worked with us from the get-go, informing us about all the different options we had, and working within our budget. We met several times before the big day, which put me at ease, and the day of, he was fantastic at getting people to smile authentically, and had some great ideas for us. During the reception, he captured all the important and funny moments, and he was so good at sneaking in for the shot that I didn't even realize he was snapping half of the photos! I highly recommend Red Queen Photography!
Jason and Shawna are the best! I felt at ease knowing they had it covered all day, capturing the important moments of our ceremony. They are fun but also professional.
Wow thank you Shauna and Jason for a incredible day. You guys were amazing at our daughters wedding. The pictures were awesome you really got every detail of their big day and the expressions you caught were fantastic. If you are looking for great photographers look no further Jason and Shauna at Red Queen are the best. They will definitely be our photographers for all our photography needs!!!!
I selected Red Queen Photography because it was one of my wedding venue's recommendations. I took a risk on using the company because I loved the creative photos on their website but noticed there were no other couples that looked like my husband and I on their site. After meeting with the female photographer, I felt that things could work out. However, I have unfortunately had a disappointing experience. I am saddened to see other reviews of an engaging photographer who got everyone laughing and helped even the most resistant guests join I pictures. That was not my experience and it showed in the photos. I expressed my concerns to the company which included lack of vigilance during shots (family members turned in opposite directions, exit signs and people standing in background of posed shots), no input or leadership or suggested poses (my group was repeatedly told "whatever you want"), no pictures of guests (I have pictures taken by guests showing the photographer standing and watching in the background. The photographer stood and talked to my mother in law during part of the short time she was scheduled to be in my reception).
After sharing this, the photographer asked what could be done to make this right. We agreed upon a solution yet I spent 2.5 months trying to get her to follow through, which to this day she has not. Honestly I am frustrated and insulted that the business had no intentions on making things right. I get it. They don't need my business. At this point I've just chosen just to express my concern through reviews. In the end, I continue to be left with wedding photos that I am not proud of and moments I'll never be able to recapture.
I'm happy for all the other brides who got wonderful pictures from this company but can't share the same sentiment.
Shawna and Jason are incredibly easy to work with. They are both upbeat and energetic, making you feel comfortable and confident. We are extremely happy with our engagement photos and cannot wait to spend our wedding day with them!
My husband and I got married at Great American Ball Park on October 9th. Jason and Shawna captured our engagement pictures outside the ballpark and at Smale Park in April. It was 35 degrees outside and Nick and I were wearing short sleeve Reds jerseys. Jason and Shawna made us forget the fact that we were freezing. They made it fun! The pictures turned out fantastic - and they used some pictures to make beautiful save the date magnets and a beautiful guestbook.
Jason and Shawna were both with us on our wedding day from 9am until almost 11. They traveled to 4 locations with us. They let me see some of the detail shots in the morning of the rings and flowers - the shots were fantastic! They were having fun and getting to see how amazing the pictures already were made me feel so relaxed and excited for the day. They also did a live photo booth, and we already have the pictures up just a day later for everyone to look at.
I cannot say enough about them! Nick and I loved every minute we spent with them. Nick hates pictures and they made him feel comfortable. And they even dealt with 4 under 3 year olds in our wedding party and did a fantastic job with the kids. The most telling thing about them, is that everyone in the bridal party and family was also raving about them! We even had wedding guests come up and comment on how friendly and professional they were.
We look forward to using Jason and Shawna in the future for family pictures!
We recently got married in Cancun, but had a Cincinnati reception back home in Cincinnati for family and friends who could not attend. We wanted to have a photographer to capture the night and also take photos around some of our favorite areas in Cincinnati. We chose Red Queen Photography for our event, because we loved their style of photography (check out their gallery), they were highly recommended from on of our friends, and they're packages fit our need. The whole process working with RQP was completely seamless and stress-free! Jason was our photographer and he was AMAZING to work with - I cannot stress that enough. Jason was responsive to all communication, had a great meeting with us weeks prior to the event, and then captured all the moments we had hoped during the reception. We received our photos in a timely manner and loved every one! The compliments from our family and friends has been ongoing. If you want a great photographer for you event, we highly recommend using Red Queen Photography. You won't be disappointed!
Red Queen was amazing!!! The day of my wedding was pretty hectic and our schedule was completely changed due to a family emergency... needless to say, Red Queen was more than willing to change our original plan and acted as if it were no big deal... Their chemistry with my bridal party could not have been better and it clearly showed it our wedding photos... Towards the end of the night, they even helped me re-pin part of my hair that had fallen out (a toddler relative had tried to pull my veil out lol)... I get so many compliments on my photos and I am so glad we chose Red Queen to be a part of our special day!! I will definitely work with them again!
Jason and shawna from red queen photography were amazing! They did a great job at making us feel comfortable in front of the camera and making us laugh to get genuine smiles in our pictures! They were so easy to work with and our pictures could not have turned out better. Thank you so much!
Jason and Katie did such a great job! We felt so comfortable with them and thought their prices were extremely affordable compared to other photographers in the city.
