Tyler Jordan Soucy Photography
Guilford, CT
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,000
  • Serves Philadelphia, PA for additional fees

Tyler’s love of photography started in his mid-twenties while touring with the Billboard-charting indie-rock band, A Great Big Pile of Leaves. He began his professional photography career capturing behind-the-scenes images for national ad campaigns and found his strength in anticipating all of the emotional, hilarious, quirky and exciting candid moments. Tyler’s documentary photography style is inspired by photo journalism and his editing embodies the tones, contrast and color familiar to analog film. While he enjoys the technical and creative aspects of portraiture photography, capturing the spontaneity of life is what drives his work.

Arsalan Abbasi Photography
Durham, NC
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,200
  • Serves Philadelphia, PA for additional fees

My name is Arsalan — "RC" for short. Over many years, I have honed an appreciation for the textures of every day life: shadows shifting with time, the subtle glimpse of emotion in someone's face, or a dapple of light on concrete. Trained as an architect, I approach photography through the same lens with which I view the built world – with a thoughtful eye for light, composition, and poetry. Photography, to me, is about eternalizing this beauty, so that we can keep a little of its magic with us.

Fern & Fountain

Lancaster, PA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Philadelphia, PA

A little bit about me so you feel like you're connecting with a real person- I'm Emily. I grew up on a farm in Wisconsin and so I love animals and nature. I love thrift stores, tropical plants, and horses. I live with a little tribe of wildmen- my husband, my two year old, and our cat who is probably part lion. I have a counseling degree and that has really formed me as a photographer. My film guy is my husband Zach, and we met in a library. He knows five different ways to brew coffee and can play six different instruments.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot recommend Fern & Fountain enough! I was actually the first bride with the privilege of working with both Emily for photography and Zach for our wedding video back in May 2019. It was so fun to have a husband/wife duo capture all our special moments. When I found out it would be raining on our wedding day, Emily sent me a list of all the reasons why it would make for exceptional photos and then proceeded to stand in the rain without an umbrella to capture our first look and wedding party pictures. Her unique style and mood was exactly what we hoped our wedding album would be! Our wedding photos are absolutely perfect! Zach pieced together a perfect embodiment of our big day in a wedding video that we will cherish forever. Fern & Fountain will put in the time and effort to beautifully capture the best day of your life!

Atco, NJ
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,300
  • Serves Philadelphia, PA

Born & Raised in Southern NJ, just outside of Philly, which is my favorite city in the world, next to Seattle. Taking in breathtaking pieces of nature, slowly becoming a beach bum, and being a Tea pig are my current hobbies. My grandmother first taught me to use a 35mm camera, and my passion and interest for photography have been unending. So combining this love with the love of others, seemed to be a perfect idea. We cannot wait to capture your love, for you to share for a lifetime.

Josh is SO great to work with and takes the dreamiest photos! The pictures from our wedding day are perfect and working with Josh was great. I would absolutely recommend him to everyone looking for a photographer in the area!

Hey, I'm Larissa! (The tiny chick behind the camera probably bossing you around)I am a wedding, portrait and fine art photographer currently based in North-Eastern, Pennsylvania but I love to travel near and far. I enjoy spending time with my friends and family. I am a huge believer that laughter is a cure-all. My little Shih-Tzu, Hope, is an extension of myself and one of my favorite cuddle buddies. I am an adventurer at heart with an incurable case of wanderlust. Car rides at sunset, rainy Sundays, curling up with a book, lattes and heart-to-hearts, and soul soothing music. I'm here for it.

Honey Brook, PA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,700
  • Serves Philadelphia, PA

Hi there! I’m a Chester County wedding and portrait photographer serving clients across the Philadelphia and South Jersey regions. My photography style is documentary/ candid – My goal is to focus on the natural connection between my couples and document the real moments at every wedding.

Words cannot describe how just how amazing my experience with Kayla was, but I will try. Kayla was my wedding photographer and did the engagement session as well. She was very attentive and had great vision. On our wedding day, she didn't miss a moment; it was like she was everywhere, and we didn't even notice. Most importantly, the photos were beautiful -- I've gotten so many compliments about how great they looked. Kayla also got our photos to so fast -- she sent a preview before noon the day after the wedding and had all the photos back within a month! Kayla was very responsive throughout the process and put together the perfect timeline. We never felt rushed or forced to take a photo. Kayla made it so easy and captured some really great candid moments. I could not have imagined working with anyone else; choosing Kayla was one of the best decisions we made. I truly cannot recommend her enough. She really helped to make our wedding day so special.

Caroline Giuliano Photography

Salem, MA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,500
  • Serves Philadelphia, PA for additional fees

I'm a Boston based weddings & elopement photojournalist serving New England & beyond. My style is authentic, nostalgic, and a calculated blend of soft and romantic + moody and edgy. I think minimalism is lazy and I want you to look at my work and feel something. My goal is to make you feel so present that you forget I have a camera in my hand while I’m photographing you. I believe it’s my job to remind you of how beautiful and fleeting life is. My hope is that after our session is over, my work turns into some of your most cherished memories decorating your home and your hearts.

Caroline is not only a professional through and through - he is a delight to be around! Working with her on a wedding last season was seamless and FUN. She made the couple, the entire vendor team, and all guests feel so comfortable. Her approach is laid back with the right amount of guidance and the result is exceptionally beautiful and authentic photos. Her deliverables are timely and timeless - I promise you'll love every photo. I can't recommend Caroline enough to any couple who is looking for romantic and authentic wedding photos and a photographer who quickly becomes a friend!

  • Photojournalistic style

  • Serves Philadelphia, PA for additional fees

I am a mom, Netflix binge watcher, and photography lover! For starters, my family and I live in Jonestown, Pa. Jake (my fiancé) and I have been together since 2012 and welcomed our daughter Payton into the world in 2016, and our son Oliver in March of this year! My passion has been photographing couples/weddings, and lifestyle images!

Alex is a dream to work with. She is professional and great with communication! It can be nerve racking getting in front of the camera. Her friendly and easy going attitude will definitely put you at ease and make you feel comfortable. She captured so much love and joy in every photo. Looking at the photos makes me feel like I'm reliving every aspect of my very favorite day!

Kayla Shenk Photography

Annville, PA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,950
  • Serves Philadelphia, PA for additional fees

I thrive off of constructing photographs that demonstrate love, connection, identity, and emotion. My art work holds strong stories behind them that can be told to generations to come! Rather than posing couples for the image, I focus on capturing a memory through a photo journalist approach to capture the memory and emotion

Honestly, it is hard to put into words how much my husband and I cherish Kayla, not only as our photographer but also our friend. My husband and I got to know Kayla over the last two years when she captured our first engagement photos back in 2020. It was from that very first interaction on that we both knew Kayla would be our forever friend and person to capture our love. Her eye for creativity and her passion sparks something in her clients to be completely trusting of her and her vision. Kayla never once made us uncomfortable, in fact; it was quite opposite because when she captured our love it was the most comfortable we have ever been. She knows how to get a genuine laugh out of her clients and loves to make sessions fun! When it came to our wedding it was 100% a no brainer to have her come and be apart of the big day. Kayla was INCREDIBLE when it came to helping me with the wedding! I did everything myself and Kayla full on embraced it and always was there if I needed help! For two years she checked in repeatedly and always made sure that I was doing okay! She let nothing slip between the cracks! Even certain things that were not directly corresponding with photography she was there to be an ear and help if possible! On the day of I was a nervous wreck, but Kayla and her second shooter were AMAZING! They came in and immediately started doing what they do best and I felt at ease! Kayla was so fun and such a bright light to have around on my wedding day! My bridesmaids LOVED her just as much as I do! It was so easy to get photos of all of us because it felt like Kayla was apart of our friend group! Again, she is not only the BEST photographer but she truly becomes your friend, and a really good one! In the craziness of the day I had forgotten half of the things I wanted to capture but not Kayla! She was on it! She would remind me and help keep me and everyone else on time! Some of my favorite moments from the wedding day was when my husband and I were alone shooting photos with Kayla. The peace she gave us from all the craziness was like taking a drink of water on a hot day! I could go on and on about how incredible, kind, fun, adventurous, creative, passionate, and so much more Kayla is, but I will let you all find that our for yourselves! If you are looking for a photographer, but also a genuine friend I 100% recommend Kayla and Kayla Shenk Photography!

I'm a people person that is always in a good mood. I feel these qualities are important for a wedding photographer because obviously your working with people and the mood helps in what is often stressful - planning a wedding.

Very experienced in posing and decor...Very easy to work with and excellent hospitality....

Elizabeth Yanna Photography

Newport News, VA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Philadelphia, PA for additional fees

Hey there! I am Elizabeth, the owner & head photographer of Elizabeth Yanna Photography. I am a couples photographer located out of Coastal Virginia, but I am always up for adventure and travel to wherever your love grows. My editing style is considered "warm and moody" with a photojournalistic twist. You can expect prompts over poses and lots of movement and interaction with your partner, instead of stiff posing and "eye contact" with the camera. I have often been told that I have a way with working quietly and quickly, as to not distract the spotlight of your day from... well, YOU!

Elizabeth was a pleasure to work with. She made my husband and I feel so comfortable, and that shines through in the photos. We are obsessed with how our wedding pictures turned out. She’s the best!

Weefan Photography

Carmel, NY
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,595
  • Serves Philadelphia, PA for additional fees

My name is Lauren McCarthy. My parents, photographers Wendy & Charlie McCarthy began Weefan Photography in 2001. At 11, I started watching them photograph events and weddings, and the first wedding I photographed, just as I remember my first day of school. For the past fourteen years, I have mastered each and every job related to the wedding photography business. After graduating from Siena college in 2019, I was invited by my parents to manage our family's business of professional photography, and assume the duties of managing our New York Office. ​

Weefan was referred to us by my husband's best friend and I was not disappointed. Lauren was so amazing to work with from the moment I reached out to even after my wedding. She's very responsive and knowledgeable about the industry and it's different trends. The day of the wedding, Lauren and her team came in and took control. There wasn't one moment I was worried things weren't going to come out how I wanted them. They even stayed a little later to take a few extra family photos for us. When we got our sneak peeks back, I was absolutely in love! They were amazing and I cannot wait to receive the rest of our photos! If you're thinking of booking Weefan Photography, definitely do it. You will not be disappointed!
