Let’s be honest for a moment; we personally hate having our photo taken. Those photos with hard to hold smiles, awkward but pretty poses that say nothing about what our love actually is and how deep it flows. What we do love, are images crafted that genuinely represent all that we’ve been through, the depths of how much we love each other, and images that we will look at over and over again. Images that show just how in love you are in that moment and that will resonate with you 30 years later. We want to give this to you; not only beautiful images but images that really speak to the love you share and just how much you mean to each other.
We’ve devoted our hearts and souls to do precisely this. It is what drives our passion for photography, and why we love what we do so incredibly much. This is the gift that we would love so much to share with you, so you can see just how beautiful your love is; images not taken only for the present, but created for your future selves and loved ones to reminisce on. Your love no matter how it manifests itself is beautiful and deserves to be captured honestly and lovingly. That is why we are here for you and that is what we will give you.

We photograph between 25-30 weddings per year. For us, this is our sweet spot. This is the number of weddings that we feel confident in capturing and still making sure we give our couples all of our hearts when it comes to communications and putting our all into their images.
.02
We have been photographing weddings for ten years together. We’ve been so incredibly lucky to have photographed over 300 weddings which we feel makes us experts on not only documenting incredible moments but in helping each of our couples along the way. We think fast on our feet, and whenever an issue arises, we are prepared to take care of it asap so you can go back to living your best wedding life.
.03
We are located in Annville, PA. However, we LOVE traveling for weddings, elopements, and sessions. We've already been to Austria, New Zealand, California, Oregon, Iceland, and a few other places to capture some incredible love stories and we'd love to see more beautiful places and tell more incredible love stories in those spaces.

NEVER! We are not only incredibly passionate about photography, weddings, and sessions; we are also incredibly passionate about each other! We see things differently, and we get inspired by different aspects of our couple's love and their wedding day, so we never split up to photograph weddings or sessions on our own. Even if we have two incredible couples inquire for the same day, trust us, it's happened. We know what we need to create the work we love, and it is being together that does that.

Jillian and Ryan are the best. From planning to the actual day – they were amazing to work with the entire time. We started off by Skyping with them and immediately felt like they were the photographers for us – people who we'd want to spend a large amount of our day with, and genuine, good people. They went above and beyond more times than I can count, and I really can't recommend them more.

We still get happy chills looking at the photos from our wedding day. The moment we saw the work With Love & Embers had done we knew we had to have them for our wedding.Not only do they both have an amazing eye, but their team work and kindness radiates from them...A little nervous and stressed hoping everything would go smoothly, Jillian was the perfect piece of calm I needed that morning. She captured amazing shots without me even realizing she was taking photographs...With Love & Embers exceeded our expectations (and we're picky!) and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a wedding photographer. You spend so much time and hard work planning this special day, there is no question that these two will take care of capturing your day in the most perfect way.

Jill and Ryan are an amazing team and more importantly, amazing people. They were more than accommodating in the days and months leading to the wedding, and were amazing on the day of….We are super happy that we found them and that we were able to get to know them. They are super talented, and amazing people and we could not recommend them any more highly.

Choosing a stellar photographer was so very important us. After much research, we fell in love with Jill & Ryan's style. No one compares to these two, they are FABULOUS! My (now) husband and I felt comfortable with them from when we booked them...We had a few minor complications & I was wildly nervous before I walked down the aisle, but Jill was there for me for anything and everything. They're much more than photographers. Having these two capture our day was hands down the best decision we made throughout our entire wedding planning process. And for our photos? We received them a few weeks ago and they are stunningly gorgeous. Thank you Jill & Ryan from the bottom of our bursting hearts.

Jill and Ryan are one dynamic couple. It was like working with a couple of your close friends who are full of ideas, crazy talented, and ready for anything. We did an engagement session...The photos are stunning...The day of my wedding I was a lot more nervous than I thought I would be and Jill was there with anything I needed. I almost felt like she was my wedding planner. They are super quick to respond, extremely flexible, and on the most important day of your life.... they are the definition of reliable.
- Julia & Kyle
They are truly a delight to work with. They were both so cool and professional, but made us feel incredibly comfortable and relaxed, which lead to some beautiful moments that they captured brilliantly...With very little direction from my husband and me, Jillian and Ryan were still able to capture EXACTLY WHAT WE WANTED for our wedding photos. The photos that we received are magical and brought us right back into the moment of our wedding. I will always be grateful for the amazing work of Jillian and Ryan and will cherish the beautiful memories they captured for us.

Jill and Ryan are AMAZING...I found my photographers via Instagram (have you seen their instagram yet, no? GO CHECK IT OUT!). I reached out, and they were the nicest, sweetest people...We had a HUGE JEWISH wedding, and were nervous they would be overwhelmed, but they handled it perfectly...I highly recommend With Love and Embers- your wedding photos will be a beautiful story that shows your love for each other the day of… I am a huge believer of cutting corners, but DO NOT cut corners on your photographer...I am so honored that ours was made with Ryan and Jill!

Jill and Ryan are the BEST...We did our engagement photos... and immediately were comfortable with Jill and Ryan, and how they made us feel… Fast forward to our wedding day and I'm not sure how anything would have gotten done without them. They ran the show and kept us on schedule (very kindly even when we were falling behind at times).... Our pictures our breathtaking, everything I wanted in wedding photos. I really wanted to capture the beautiful landscape and they did just that. Every single photo was edited beautifully to be the best version of itself. They were so awesome to work with and did such an amazing job. Ryan and Jill are the golden standard for wedding photographers!

We honestly cannot say enough about Jill & Ryan...they truly love what they do, care so deeply about their couples, and that reflects in their insanely gorgeous work. We... hoped to capture the love from our day in an organic way...When we finally met them for our engagement session, it felt like we had known them for years...We felt so incredibly comfortable in front of their lenses...On our wedding day, Jill was the calming presence that I so needed...when our photos came back....tears on tears. We just keep looking at the photos again and again. They truly captured all the emotions from the day...Jill & Ryan were just so easy to work with, so responsive and attentive to any questions we had...We honestly felt like they were close friends...We could not imagine working with anyone...

As soon as we met with Jill and Ryan we knew they were the ones!! I was drawn to their work immediately- the darker tones and beautiful compositions let me know right away that they knew exactly what they were doing with light and had mastered the art of capturing beautiful images in every kind of environment...Jill and Ryan captured the most incredible photos of our wedding day- from the intimate portraits to the candid dancing shots. They both also played key roles on the day of, helping to coordinate people, timing and locations. I don't know how we would have gotten it all done without them. We were blown away and I can't recommend these two enough!
