I have been in business since 2020, doing my own weddings since 2021. I don't just take any couples, I do couples that we click with each other. I rather be like a best friend on your big day, instead of just a vendor. I am here to help you along the way. Both myself and videography have worked together for almost 2 years, ensuring that we know how to move in sync to make sure we get what you need for your special day. I have worked with tons of couples in all different aspects of life, and have done Catholic and A Nigerian wedding. I love the diversity that my job offers and I absolutely love to see how each couple has a different love story. No two couples are alike, and I want your big day to be about YOU.
I have insurance, just in case anything happens or your venue needs to see. All packages come with a second shooter. I do what I can to make sure your day goes smoothly for YOU. I shoot more candid/documentary than posed.

I had the pleasure of working with April Graber Photography for my wedding, and I can't express enough how wonderful the experience was. From the moment I reached out to April, she and her assistant, Devin, showcased the utmost professionalism and warmth.
One of the standout qualities of April and Devin was their punctuality. They arrived early on the wedding day, ready to capture every precious moment. Their timeliness put me at ease, knowing that I could rely on them to be in the right place at the right time.
What sets April and Devin apart is their delightful sense of humor. They had an incredible ability to make everyone feel comfortable and relaxed in front of the camera. Their lighthearted approach not only resulted in fantastic candid shots but also made the entire photography process fun and enjoyable. Laughter and smiles were in abundance throughout the day, thanks to their infectious humor.
Professionalism was another key element in their work. April's attention to detail was impressive. She ensured that every angle, lighting, and composition was just right. Her expertise in photography was evident in every shot she took. Devin, as her assistant, was equally professional, providing seamless support and making sure no moment went unnoticed.
One of the most appreciated aspects of working with April was her responsiveness. She was always super quick to respond to any messages or inquiries, whether it was regarding scheduling, shot ideas, or any concerns I had. This level of communication gave me peace of mind, knowing that I could easily reach out and get the information I needed.
April Graber Photography truly made everything so easy for me. I didn't have to worry about a thing when it came down to photography. They took charge, guiding us through the various poses and settings effortlessly. This allowed me to focus on enjoying my special day, knowing that the memories were being captured beautifully.
The results were beyond my expectations. The photos captured the essence of the day perfectly – the joy, the love, and the emotional moments. April's talent in post-processing also shone through, as each image was carefully edited to enhance its beauty without appearing overly retouched.
In conclusion, I can't recommend April Graber Photography enough. April and Devin's kindness, punctuality, professionalism, and humor were the perfect combination to make our wedding day even more special. Their responsiveness and ability to put us at ease made the entire photography experience effortless. The resulting photos are a treasure, documenting our day in the most beautiful way possible. If you're seeking not only stunning photographs but a delightful photography experience, April Graber Photography is the way to go.

When I reached out to April about capturing our surprise proposal, she immediately responded with excitement. She captured every moment of this day perfectly for us, helping me plan every detail ahead of time. She captured our joy and excitement so beautifully and was so kind and professional, making sure we got every shot we wanted. Truly the perfect person to have along on this special day for us. We love every photo we’ve seen and can’t wait to get the rest of the gallery back!!!

April did exceptional work for our wedding. Not only did she take stunning pictures, but she was prompt and clear with messaging, invoicing, and communicating about what would happen the day of the wedding. She was exceedingly kind with one of our kids who was having a hard time adjusting to her parent remarrying. It was easy for us to take pictures with her because she already had ideas about where good shots could happen at our venue. She was able to direct us to get the best shots possible. Highly, highly recommend.

April and Ryan made this process a breeze! My partner and I had to cancel our original trip less than a month before our two year anniversary that was on a holiday, and I was terrified I wouldnt be able to propose like I planned when we changed trip locations. Luckily, April made herself available for us and did an amazing job treating us like shes known us for years which made our anxiety wash away. The photographs weve received from our sneak peak so far have been no less than absolutely gorgeous, the lighting is fantastic and focus is perfect. That just makes that much more excited to see the rest of the pictures and videography from the day!! All around a 100/10 experience, not a single regret!

April has made our entire experience wonderful. I cannot imagine having anyone else behind the camera for our wedding day. We are so happy we chose April and Dev, they will bring beautiful photos as well as the life of the party. I also did a boudoir shoot with her for my wife and it was GORGEOUS, she made me feel so beautiful and the pictures are things we will cherish forever. We are so so so happy with our experience and will definitely be doing future shoots with her.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I have an Investment Guide I send out that includes pricing for weddings, engagements, boudoir, and all. This would include just photo which starts at $2000 for four hours, as well as packages including photo and video starting at $4970.. I offer just video starting at $2380. I offer boudoir starting at $350 and engagement sessions starting at $375. All packages can be customized, including pricing for corporate events.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Weddings: Right off the bat, I like to set up a phone call or a meeting in person to go over the vision and see if we click. If you decide to book with me, go ahead sign a contract and pay the 30% deposit. We work together to set up an engagement session (if there is one.) I work with your other vendors to come up with a timeline, get it approved by you. A month to 2 weeks before the big day, we set up a final meeting to make sure we have everything down! Then the big wedding day, 24-48 hours a sneak, and then 6-8 weeks after full gallery delivery. I am here whenever you need me.
Boudoir: We set up a time to chat. If you decide to book, I sent over the contract and the invoice for 30%. I sent out a guide for you that has tons of fun little things in it. We go over your vision in depth, and comfortability with clothing and posing. Then we do the shoot, I send out the photos and you get to pick your favorites based off the amount that come with your package. But you are always able to add on more!
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have been using a camera since I was young and all self-taught. I have attended workshops to better my skills and educate myself more each year to better my experience for my couples. I have been doing weddings since 2021, and have over 35+ of experience doing my own, including engagements.
