There’s something about the end of a wedding season that always makes us pause, not because we’re slowing down, but because we’re reflecting on just how much life we were trusted to witness.
In 2025, Shipwrecked Creative had the honor of capturing over 35 weddings, and every single one brought its own story, energy, and kind of magic. From emotional first looks and quiet, meaningful vows to packed dance floors and champagne-soaked celebrations, this year reminded us why we fell in love with storytelling in the first place.



Thirty-five weddings is more than a stat, it’s 35 unique love stories. It’s 35 timelines carefully built, nerves calmed, veils fixed, ties straightened, and moments preserved that will never happen the same way again. It’s early mornings loading gear, golden-hour sprints for the light, and staying late because the dance floor energy was just too good to leave.
We traveled across Ohio and beyond, documenting celebrations in vineyards, barns, museums, backyards, and ballrooms, each space transformed by the people inside it. No two days looked the same, but every couple showed up fully, authentically, and unapologetically themselves.



What stands out most from 2025 aren’t just the visuals, it’s the feeling. The shaky hands before walking down the aisle. The way parents looked at their kids during speeches. The uncontrollable laughter during portraits. The hugs that lasted a little longer than planned.
These are the moments that don’t make it into shot lists, but they’re the reason we press record and click the shutter. Our goal has always been to document weddings as they truly unfold, imperfect, emotional, joyful, and real.



To every couple who trusted us with their day: thank you. Thank you for welcoming us in like friends, for letting us witness your love up close, and for allowing us to tell your story the way it deserves to be told. We don’t take that responsibility lightly.
Your weddings were reminders that love shows up in countless forms, quiet and loud, elegant and chaotic, planned and spontaneous. And we’re endlessly grateful to be invited into those spaces.






As we close the chapter on 2025, our hearts are full and our excitement for what’s ahead is even bigger. We’re carrying these stories with us into 2026, inspired, motivated, and ready to keep creating work that feels honest and lasting.
Here’s to more sunsets, more happy tears, more dance floors, and more stories waiting to be told.
35+ weddings. Endless gratitude.
