Aaron Kes Photography

I'm a Cincinnati wedding photographer who relocated to the Midwest from Phoenix. I love hoops, traveling, and hanging out with my people. If there is a tasty treat involved, all the better.
I want to make creative art with cool people, all while being the easiest part of their wedding day.

Aaron was the photographer for a wedding we were the florists for. As a vendor in the events industry, I highly recommend Aaron for his creative eye, use of lighting, timeliness, responsiveness, and knowledge of his craft. He's also extremely nice to work with as well. -the staff at My Little Posy (event florist in Phoenix, AZ) More...

Aaron was so kind and easy to work with. I found him on Facebook actually and despite only communicating on emails prior to meeting he nailed our concepts. It was a no stress shoot despite the oppressive heat and haboob. We very quickly received teasers and I love how they look. Can't wait to see the rest! Would definitely work with him again. More...

My fiancé and I were lucky enough to meet Aaron and win a contest of his. He was an absolute wonder to work with during our engagement shoot. If we are ever near him we will be trying to get photos done because of how fun and easy he made it. Thank again Aaron for capturing some amazing photos! More...

I may be a bit biased as he is my brother but every time he posts pictures that he has done I am taken away with the beautiful images. He has a remarkable eye for capturing his subjects and the beauty around them. I recommend him every chance I get. More...

Aaron Kes is a very warm person who made my husband and I feel very comfortable during our photo shoot in Sedona!! He is punctual, professional and friendly! He also responded to every email and question I had in a timely manner, even when it wasn't related to the photo shoot (like recommendations for amazing restaurants in the area). He is most certainly worth the INVESTMENT that you would want to make in lifelong memories! More...

Aaron is professional, personable, and laid back. His communication is also outstanding and he is always quick to respond to questions or ideas. Our pictures are beautiful and during the engagement and wedding picture process, we felt so comfortable and like we were with one of our friends. Neither my husband nor I really enjoy having our picture taken but aaron put us at ease immediately. I'm so happy we hired Aaron and we would do it again in a heartbeat! More...

I won a free engagement shoot and he treated us like any other beloved clients! Personable, a great eye, and made my picture ideas come to life! Throughout the shoot he asked our ideas, implemented his, and even challenge himself! One thing I loved is we are very playful and in love so most picture instructions we veered off unintentionally and we still heard the camera going! He captured every raw moment between us! I am so very thankful that we have such amazing pictures to share, love, and cherish for life! More...

We just did an engagement photo session and it went perfect! I loved how he showed us some of the pictures as we went along and gave us some direction to get the best shots. We had so much fun too and got to act like ourselves and that was great! We will definitely be using Aaron for our wedding. More...

Getting headshots sounded like such a chore when I was told I’d need them for a charity organization I was joining. Then I met Aaron and he made the whole experience seamless. He listened to what I needed and wanted then took that to provide a fun and carefree session. My headshots turned out awesome and I have pictures that reflect my personality that can be used in a professional setting but also are fun enough for personal use as well! I highly recommend Aaron and will use him for any photography needs I have in the future. More...

You are gonna feel great about hiring Aaron.
Not only is his demeanor humble, positive and thoughtful, but his work is always honest, well executed and delightful.
I hired Aaron to work a high-end corporate shoot for a national client of mine, and his work was phenomenal, and some of the best I've ever seen.
It's very challenging for a photographer to capture the interior of a dimly-lit venue, successfully employ flash without making it stand out as glaring or obnoxious. Aaron absolutely nailed the look, and made everyone on the team look terrific.
Every time I see a photo of his on my Instagram feed, I automatically know that it's his work by its distinct look and spot-on execution.

What’s the secret to taking a great photograph?
Knowing your subject. Sure, you need to know all the technical stuff, but to truly make a great photo you have to have a good understanding of your subject.
What do you love most about your job?
I love that I get to document the biggest day of people's lives up until this point. It's an honor I don't take for granted. It's important. And it's important to me to imbue that day with fun, a sense of calm, and creativity.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I have always wanted to live as an artist. I like that I get to be creative while still serving people. I like the freedom it brings.
Why should our clients choose you?
Because I rock! Haha. Truthfully, that's part of it. You want someone on your wedding day who you like their vibe. On top of that, they should choose me because I have great skill, and I never forget I'm there to serve them and their love.
