Morgan Baker Photo Co is an Ohio based wedding and lifestyle photography company grounded in irreplaceable authenticity. Stolen seconds with a lover, late night talks in a parking lot on the roof of your first car and weekend trips to the lake - these make up poignant and core memories that shape us for the rest of our lives. These are the moments near you, dear to you.
We tell these stories, sharing the nostalgia of the small town, where lives start and end within the city limits. Stories that are yours - deeply romantic experiences about relationships and life.
We show the wedding day, not purely in the decor, but through the emotions and pivotal moments of the events - leaving you with memories that don’t just look good. They feel good.

“You tell me.”
“Tell you what?”
“What am I doing wrong? Why doesn’t it ever seem to work out? I’ll, ugh, this is going to sound so sappy and stupid.”
“It’s not.”
“It really is.”
He sat there silently, looking at me as the parking lot lights cast long rays across his face. Car headlights would crash across him as they drove by and I’d see myself in his eyes for a brief moment. I rapped my knuckles on the hood of his car before wrapping my arms around my legs.
“I really try. I mean, I really try. I wear what they like. I meet all their stupid friends. I do like a million little things just for them. I’m saying ‘Like, hey, I really like you.’ But its like they never really like me. I mean, they like me, but they don’t like ME.”
“I like you plenty.”
“Yeah but you’re you. Of course you do. We’ve been friends since my mom and your mom were cooking us up. What I want to know is why they don’t like me.”
“I think you already said why.”
“What?”
“Oh come on. It’s the same every time. You go for guys who don’t want you they want some version of you that they think you are. Some dream or delusion or some podcast bro’s take on a woman. And then you go and try to make yourself that dream or delusion.”
“What’s wrong with trying to be better?”
“You’re a real person, not a character in a book. The only delusion here is you think you’re gonna do something different and suddenly they’ll have their eyes opened wide. Like, ‘Oh my, she really is the woman of my dreams, she’s an
a n g e l from heaven just for me.’”
He cupped his hands around his face, putting on a lovestruck look and it made me laugh, brightening for a moment the frustration I was feeling before it bubbled right back up.
“So you’re saying just be myself? Thank you, Mr. Fortune-Cookie.”
“It’s always been enough for me.”
“Being yourself?”
“No. You.”
Moments I Cherish
You ever feel like people only see half of you? Maybe your bright, cheery side but never your “sitting-in-front-of-the-fire-thinking-about-life” side? I know I do. But I want to see what makes you, you. Why?
Because, I believe your life is worth remembering, not because you’re having one special day amidst a sea of forgettable ones but because your forgettable days are the ones that build you. Your stories deserve to be passed on and your little moments are big.
Film, polaroids and journaling have surged in popularity.
Why? Because we’re surrounded by a fast fading, bereft-of-meaning digital wasteland and people want something of permanence.
Weddings, Elopement, Labor and Delivery, Couples, Family, Lifestyle - whatever event you’re looking to remember, you deserve to have the big little moments of your story written down, forever. You deserve a memorial to what’s made you.

Meet
Isabella and Logan Roca
"Morgan is the first photographer my husband and I have ever worked with to make us feel comfortable and like ourselves during a photo session. She is so incredibly talented at capturing all the details of my small family of 3, we love her work so much. She has done our last 7 photo sessions within the last year alone, to say the least."
Jeffery and Sara Murphy
"We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer! Morgan took care of our wedding and worked to make it feel special, she coordinated with our videographer. She treated us like family, I would highly recommend her to anyone needing photos of any kind."
John and Sydney Murphy
"Morgan took engagement photos for my fiancé and I and they turned out gorgeous! She got them back to us in a timely manner and gave us lots of photos! She made the entire shoot so much fun and genuinely it was just a very nice time. Even better than the fun we had was the end result of photos! I am so excited to use these photos for pretty much everything because they are so pretty!"
Tabitha and Micah McCoy
"My husband and I love working with Morgan! She has done so many sessions with us that range from engagement, maternity, family shoots of our little family of 3, and family shoots with our extended family of 25. Every time we are on the other side of her camera, she makes us laugh and feel comfortable."
