i consider myself too much of a hopeless romantic and a laid-back photographer to bring the best in you! i’ve been told that nurture is my superpower, and documenting love stories is my outlet. over the years i’ve learned that when it comes to being creative, art it’s what makes me feel alive, that's why my approach to photography is to have an "as-personal-as-possible" experience with my couples by valuing authenticity and connection. to make the whole process feel light and easy! your life’s best moments and stages deserve to be documented in a way that tells YOUR story.

My (now) husband and I eloped in NYC and hired Juan to document the experience and I am so grateful we did!! Juan is the kindest, easiest person to work with and a wonderfully creative photographer. We spent the day taking photos in front of City Hall, Joe's Pizza, and the NY Public Library and time just flew by! We're obsessed with how our photos turned out and love that we get to look back on this day forever :)

Coral was amazing to work with! We had the pleasure of getting to know her when we booked her last-minute to take some photos of my good friends' small backyard ceremony in 2018. When my husband and I later got engaged, we knew we had to book Coral to capture our own planned festivities for June 2020. When 2020 rolled around and it became apparent that we had to scrap most of our original plans, we couldn't have asked for a better partner than Coral. Her flexibility and encouragement during what was a crazy time for everyone kept us sane. We unfortunately nixed all of our other vendors with the changes we made, but kept Coral because we knew we wanted her there to capture whatever our day turned out to be. Coral captured beautiful photos of our two(!) wedding/reception dates and we are so glad to have those treasured photos. She's incredibly easy to work with and made everyone feel so comfortable, especially as my family and I don't get in front of the camera very often. We can't recommend Coral enough!

Before we even met, Ryan and Tatiana had 10 years experience as wedding photographers, and Ryan had been named one of the Top 10 Wedding Photographers in the World by the two top industry magazines, American Photo and Rangefinder. We didn't mean to fall in love with the person whose style and experience fit most neatly with each others', but it happened. Now we manage our business and creative passion with our other passion … parenting our Tasmanian Devil of a toddler, Gavin, in our happy place of Cobble Hill, Brooklyn.

Hire the Brenizers! They are incredibly professional, talented, warm and dedicated. Within days of our wedding, they sent us a sneak peak of highlight photos from our wedding day. Their style is very personal; there is nothing "staged" about their photos. We truly felt like we had made new friends by the end of the day and would gladly work with them again! Strongly recommend.

Emma Cleary Photo and Video

5.0

New York, NY
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Staten Island, NY

After graduating from Parson's School of Art in Manhattan, I worked as a fine artist, my work involved photography and photo manipulation. I quickly discovered that I loved and excelled at photo retouching, and went on to work for some of the best photo retouching studios in New York. In 2009 I shot my first wedding, it was a dear friend of mine and the beautiful photos were featured in one of the biggest wedding magazines. I realized that I had found my calling and have been producing stunning wedding photographs with my amazing team and clients ever since.

I was referred to Emma Cleary via a gf who had just had her wedding shot and said she did great work so I was happy to get a glowing referral while trying to source vendors. Emma was a godsend for me, because my wedding had so much that I wanted to cover, with so many moving pieces (7 musical acts, 20 performers, etc.) at so many different locations (a memorial area for first look, then over to a Park for ceremony, then a boat to an Island for the reception) via different modes of transportation (car, ferry, boat, 2nd line parade) over multiple nights (we shot both Friday -Sunday am) but her and her team came along for the entire ride and nailed it and I got AMAZING photos for every part. The lead photographer was so on it (which we needed bc we were on such a tight schedule) and the other photographers were also great and told us jokes which helped me actually get genuine smiles and helped so much during the stressful first look. My veil blew away during my photos (before the ceremony, sigh) and they were there trying to climb the tree to get it (but it was way too high up!) but A+ for effort. And the best part was that she actually SAVED my wedding... we had planned on getting married next to a carousel inside a public park, and the carousel party coordinator didn't file the required permit we needed so a hour before I walked down the aisle the park rangers came in and forced the setup/guests out. Emma knew the owner of a nearby restaurant where she had shot wedding photos before and asked the owner if we could use in front of his restaurant (facing the water) as a ceremony site. If that had not happened then who knows where I would have gotten married. She worked with my wedding planner and my guests (and us too!) had a place to have our ceremony last second... she was a total life saver during such a stressful and important moment. And then at the end once we received the photos, my favorite part was the light editing which was just the right amount, not too fake, so was perfect. Some of the photos dont even look like we are in a city which I just loved loved loved and had said I wanted, and then when we wanted city or actions shots she got those too so we had options of everything we did in every way. There is one shot where she got the end of our first dance and it looks like we are in a Broadway play! Anyways, as you could tell I couldnt have recommended any more bc she has so many years of experience it helped us with not only capturing the moments perfectly, and in a perfect way, it also helped us bc she knows all the wedding venues and wedding industry people and I never realized how much that plays a part in booking vendors.

My name is, yensy marquez Born in the Dominican Republic where I spent my early childhood before moving to the United States at the age of 5. I have always had love for the arts and music. I spent my teenage years drawing cartoons and Japanase manga. I discovered my love for photography during my late teenage years when I got my hands on my first cellphone with a camera. I was always the go to picture person during family events and gatherings. Though they were admittedly average at the time, everyone loved them and always encouraged me to get a real camera. I finally saved up for one and never looked back.

From the very beginning it was a pleasure dealing with yensy. He was thoughtful, insightful and full of ideas. He came early for the wedding day, and took fantastic photos. He delivered beautiful previews the day after and we were absolutely in love with them. Would definitely recommend him.

Hello, my name is Daniel Martinez and I thank you for taking interest in my work! Photography and I go way back! I discovered my passion for it when I was fourteen years old. From the first moment I picked up a camera, I knew that this career was the one that I wanted to pursue. I have worked within the wedding photography industry for 10 years and have experience working with publications such as ESPN, PDN, and The New York Times. My Photography style is documentary based as I aim to capture natural candid moments.

Danny was such a pleasure to work with. He checked off all boxes of the traditional shots of us and the whole wedding party, and portrait shots of us during first look's, but also captured moments and journalistic style shots throughout the night that really showed our personalities. When we showed interest in doing "light painting" effect photos for some of the fun late-night shots, he dove right in. The first set of photos that he delivered to us the day after the wedding were awesome - I can't wait to see all of the final shots. Danny is an artist and it's clear in his work.

Though my photography work has been published in magazines, and I've garnered my fair share of awards over the years, my proudest achievement till this day was when my youngest son finally learned how to ride a two-wheeler. I mean, c'mon: that's pretty awesome, right?

There is no secret that we wanted to work with you since you photographed a wedding that i was in. Your patience and ability to remain calm in all the frantic moments showed me that you would be perfect for my wedding one day. On top of that, your passion for photography and knowledge of the craft as well as the beautiful photos you create made it an easy decision. So when that time came, we knew right away that our first call was to you. For our engagement shoot we talked about going on boardwalk rides to get really amazing shots and despite your insane fear of heights you responded DONE !! No questions asked, no matter how nauseous it made you. Their aren’t enough words to express our thanks and gratitude for all the CRAZY things you have done while working with us, including our 13.5 hour photo shoot / adventure/ road trip through sand dunes, Red Rock Canyon, alien brothels, a dry lake bed, a ghost town with jumping cacti, and finding Area 51. You two are the epitome of what it means to be truly genuine human beings. It is the reason that we loved having you shoot our wedding and even more so to share some unbelievable adventures with you. Thank you again for everything. We cant say enough about how beautiful our pictures are and how every experience we have had shooting with you has been perfect.

When I was a little girl, my favorite part about making the trip to Argentina to visit my grandparents, was rummaging through their old boxes of prints on a rainy day and just imagining life through those photos. I think that's what started my passion for photography. Knowing that a photo can have such an impact on a child, someone who hasn't even met you yet, makes taking them all the more meaningful. I am passionate about making meaningful images for others because I know how important those photos will be in the future.

I never dreamed of being a wedding photographer. I thought it was all the same, you show up to a venue, photograph different couples in the same poses every weekend and after is all said and done never see them again. However one day while I was taking photographs of people I loved and cared about it clicked! I could photograph couples who I truly got along with, who just want to have a great time on their wedding day. Couples who want to be themselves. Couples who I could consider friends, not clients. I’ve built my business on this premise and enjoy it every single day.

Lily is a dream to work with! I’m always so excited when I find her on the vendor list for any event we are both working on. Her photography is phenomenal and she edits so quickly that you’ll have pictures Monday after a Saturday wedding. I always recommend her to my clients. She has such unique style.

I live in New York City and Northwest CT with my wife and our two rescue dogs. I am a commercial lifestyle and wedding photographer.

During this time, my passion for documentary style photography was born and after touring I traded the guitar for the camera and haven’t looked back.

No matter, the light, distractions or location, he took wonderful shots. He asked lots of targeted questions in the run up to the wedding so on the day of, he captured all the memories that were important to us while also staying in the background. Adam is an incredibly talented, smart and competent person. We could not recommend him more.

You know those first few months that you fall in love & everything is so wonderful & terrifying & just so damn GOOD? It's that “new love” feeling & I’ve never been able to replicate that feeling with anything else, except photography. Your wedding day tells the story of your love. From that “new love” to the more comfortable kind, it is the culmination of all those moments leading up to “I do.” I consider myself the narrator of that day, telling that story and documenting your connection through my photographs.

Jenny is an absolutely wonderful person and amazing photographer. So kind, friendly, organized and talented. She is a pleasure to work with always. She listens to your needs, guides you through the process, and delivers work that showcases all of the love and fun of your day.

Jess Spoll Review We cannot recommend Jess enough. She’s an absolute treasure of a human being who is now one of our good friends, in addition to being a magnificently talented photographer. Her documentary-esque style paired with her stark contrast and beautiful, earthy colors make her work some of the most visually stunning images we have ever had the pleasure of laying our eyes on. If you’re getting married, we would absolutely, 1000% recommend Jess Spoll. Sure, you could hire some other wedding photographer that captures all the smiles and sunshine and happiness that your day brings, and you’d be satisfied. However, if you want to relive your wedding day in all its beautiful, loving glory, hire Jess Spoll. She has this way of telling a story through her images in a way that communicates a sense of ease, sincerity, and above all else, warmth. She snapped moments that we didn’t even think would be moments worth capturing, and yet managed to make those particular pictures some of our favorites from our wedding day. We want to take her with us everywhere we go and have her document our lives-. Jess was extremely easy to work with. I am usually a pretty shy person in front of the camera, so for her to get me to naturally come out of my shell was nothing short of amazing. Working with Jess literally made us want to get more pictures done despite having already gotten married. We highly recommend her and cannot speak highly enough about her style, professionalism, and dedication.

This relaxed, confident, kind approach helps couples really relax on a stressful day. Susan manages to make every wedding couple, from elopement to 5-star or destination locale look like super models! She's more than a photographer--she's a lifestyle journalist who creates incredible stylish images that record timeless love.

Relive the moments as you experienced them. When it comes to your wedding, what are you most excited about? The ceremony? Dancing the night away with family and friends? Indulging in the emotion of the day? The photos are important so you can relive each memorable moment. But the moments are only memorable if you take the time to experience them in the first place. This way, you'll not only experience the moments of your wedding day - you'll remember them well. Who better to photograph your experiences than a husband and wife team who understands the importance of this day. And the moments that shape it.

Where do we even begin with Ishan and Preeti of Ishan Fotografi?! Our experience with them was nothing short of amazing. My husband and I (and all of our guests!) would highly recommend Ishan Fotografi to any couple looking for talented, thoughtful, creative, adventurous, understanding, professional, responsive and downright fun photographers! I first got introduced to Ishan & Preeti a year before my wedding at another wedding they were shooting. I really liked their vibe/personality while working with the couple - they were really thoughtful in their approach and shots they took, had great ideas/visions and were really great at demonstrating poses for the couple because they're a couple themselves! I immediately reached out to them the next day to get to know them a bit more. Ishan and Preeti were very communicative from the beginning - answering any of our questions via email, text or phone call; inviting us to their place to see their work; asking us how the wedding planning was going; etc. We got along with them instantaneously and knew we didn't want to book anyone else. Not only were Ishan & Preeti great photographers, but also GREAT company! We loved every minute of our engagement shoot with them. It can get a little awkward taking photos in public, but Ishan and Preeti made it super fun and relaxed. That kind of energy and vibe cascaded throughout the wedding weekend. We were so appreciative of this, especially because they knew how to help us navigate stressful situations as they arose throughout the weekend and made sure our photos still came out great! They also took the time to walk around our venue and scope out the best places to take the different types of photos we wanted. We received our photos very quickly after the wedding. There are so many amazing shots we are having a hard time picking our favorites!! Definitely a good problem to have :) If we ever are in need of photographers again, we know exactly know who we'll be calling!

I'm just an 80's born, 90's raised millennial photographer who wants to shoot passionate couples and have his avocado toast too. My approach to photography is journalistic, directed not posed. My approach to a wedding day is calm, attentive, easy-going, non-intrusive without being awkwardly shy, and always with a smile.

While I'm not a client of Hector's, I am a fellow wedding vendor (videographer) and there is no photographer I prefer working with over Hector. His energy is calming and easy-going, but he always makes sure we BOTH get what we need. Instead of fighting against each other to get our shots, we work so well together it actually enhances our footage. He's organized, straight-forward and attentive. Plus, he travels all over! 10/10 would recommend :)

Celebrating the wholeness of life and the perfection of love I truly ask you to "stay gold"! My beautiful clients are couples of all genders, orientation, and identities who have found each other and want this moment in time captured in heirloom quality. We leave the churches and the hotels and venture into wild world, up the mountains, to the islands, into the forests, and out into the deserts. Stay Gold Tyler delivers stunning portraits, family heirloom formals, and b-roll candids that will have you laughing and "aww"ing for a lifetime. Tyler splits time between South Florida, New York City, and Seattle.

We got married in the Hoh Rainforest in the Olympic National Park in Washington state. We chose Tyler because we hadn't been to the location before, and he was from the area. He guided us through the entire process, helping us find a beautiful place for the ceremony in the rainforest, and provided clear directions for getting there (it's 4 hours from the city, deep in the national park). He managed to keep us laughing even when it started raining. My husband and I can be awkward in formal photos, but Tyler helped us feel comfortable the entire day, and the results were absolutely stunning!

Of the dozens of people we needed to work with at our wedding, Alexis was by far our favorite. We sought her out for her style - natural, candid, genuine. But she was also the most professional, punctual, prepared and FUN person to work with. She was on top of absolutely everything and we were so well taken care of. It's been a while since we got married, but her style of photography really allows us to relive the day. There are no stuffy portraits, just beautifully captured natural moments that really paint a picture of what it was like to be there. We can't say enough about how lucky we were to find Alexis!

Jason came recommended to us from a few people who responded to a Facebook post I made in one of our local groups. We are so, so glad we decided to go with him! We had a very small wedding at our house and hired Jason to come do just an hour-long shoot (for a very reasonable price) so we could have a handful of formal shots and a few of our ceremony. He arrived right on time and ready to go. He was super friendly, laid back and professional and actually made us both feel at ease (which is tough because I hate being in front of a camera!) Even though it's the height of wedding season, he had a few preview photos for us to see within three or four days and the rest of the photos were ready for us within about two weeks? Just an amazing turn-around time. And although I'm burying the lede here, the photos were outstanding. I didn't expect very much from just an hour-long shoot, but we had so many "favorites" we really had a tough time picking which ones we wanted to have printed! We wholeheartedly recommend him if you're looking for a wedding photographer!

When I'm not shooting weddings, I’m a total beach bum. This might sound like an oxymoron coming from a native Montrealer, but I adore the ocean (and very much dislike winter). I swim and surf whenever possible, and I get out to the Rockaways as often as I can. I do a ton of beach photography, including a series about couples at the beach, and I’ve been published a few times, including here and here. If you see me at the beach, come say hi, and let’s have a frozen drink together.

As a wedding planner, I absolutely LOVE working with Erica. She's incredibly responsive, communicative, and professional leading up to the wedding and on the wedding day. My couples adore her and I know they are always going to be in great hands with her. She has a knack for making people comfortable in front of the camera, even if they have some jitters initially, and capturing all of their love and energy. Her photos are always amazing and she's a go-to recommendation for all of my couples.

Working with Tess and Julia was one of the highlights of the whole wedding-planning process. They're consummate professionals, absolutely lovely, and will take beautiful photos of your wedding. Once we had met with them for the first time, we knew we didn't have to stress about wedding photography. They're incredibly organized and responsive and prompt. They formulated a whole game plan for the day, including strategizing on how to manage the complex politics of family photos, and they executed the strategy seamlessly at the wedding. They're also just genuinely good and fun people, and it was a pleasure having them at the wedding. And, of course, we love the photos! They got great shots of every part of the event.

I know it is the most incredible experience having everyone you love together in one place to celebrate you. Aside from the births of my babies, my wedding was the best day ever. But being a mom has made me appreciate photography the most — I know how fleeting time is and how important it is to have printed memories of those you love dearly. Tomorrow isn’t promised and I want to document you with your favorite people as they are today.

Words can't even begin to express our complete adoration, immense gratitude, and delight in working with Cassidy! We had originally booked her for our larger wedding that was postponed due to COVID-19 and she made the rebooking process so easy and reassured us during a very stressful time. We ended up moving forward with an intimate wedding on our original date and she was the first person we reached out to. She was an absolute dream and source of endless enthusiasm and support as we reimagined and redesigned our day. She totally got our vision and seamlessly integrated into the day to capture everything as it unfolded. She beautifully captured the emotion and joy between us and our families. We love that the photos have that "real life, but better" look that will help us preserve the feeling of the day rather than the stuffy look of traditional wedding photos. Our families can't stop raving about how gorgeous the images are. Cassidy, we love you and are so so appreciative to have had you work your magic! We will cherish these photos for a lifetime.

When you choose Loretta, you’re not just selecting a wedding photographer. You’re making a new friend. Loretta - and her husband Juan - have been such a blessing to us throughout the entire process. From our first zoom meeting where her genuine good & joyful spirit came through the screen, to turning an engagement photoshoot into a fun double date at our favorite pizza place. The person she is truly separates her from anyone else you’ll select for your big day, not to mention she has INCREDIBLE skills with the camera. Both the indoor & outdoor portions of our wedding day have their own specific look and we loved the way she portrayed our beach setting AND the dance floor moments in all her photos. OH ONE MORE THING - our reception ended at 11:30pm on a Sunday. She gave us a “sneak peek” of over 100 photos within 12 hours that we were able to share with all our friends & family the next day! Our wedding day/night was such a blur, yet we were able to relive it the next day in every moment that she captured on camera.

There is a dusty old photo album that I’ve looked at hundreds of times. It is from my parents’ wedding more than 40 years ago. It shows me a little piece of my history every time I look at those images. When I lost my father, I realized his memory lives on in those images for me. It’s like this perfect window into the past that I want to give each and every one of my wedding clients.

When we received our wedding photos from Monika, my husband and I sat for hours looking through them, laughing, crying, smiling, reminiscing and enjoying moments exquisitely captured by Monika and her team. In the end, we looked at each other and said: "Let's get married again!" Part of the magic of our day was Monika's ability to capture forever cherished moments. The look on my husband's face of me coming down the aisle, my mom watching me dance with my dad, our friends cutting a rug on the dance floor, our families gathered together-- all of the things that we didn't get to witness on the day, but were beyond thrilled to see. We knew from our initial conversations with Monika that she would bring her utmost professionalism and talent, but also her genuine excitement to be there with us on our wedding day. She made the whole process a breeze. She made us feel comfortable during our engagement photos (which can sometimes be awkward) and helped us find our flow so we were ready for the big day. She arrived to our wedding venue early, with her shot list and the full day plans in hand, ready to go. She captured photos of all of our friends and family-- giving our wedding guests beautiful mementos from our day. Monika delivered a "sneak peek" album the day after our wedding (AMAZING!) and she sent a tear-jerker slideshow with some of her favorite moments along with the full gallery. Everyone that has seen the photos is in awe of her work. We can't recommend Monika enough, I've already sent her information to my recently engaged friends, only to be able to see her work her magic again! Thank you for everything!

When we changed our mind about things, he adapted. He remained calm, cool, and creative through our engagement shoot as well as our wedding day.

We are Roge and Fernando and we want you to know some things about us. We passionately and creatively document love stories. (It feels so cheesy when I see it written, but it’s true.) And we want you to understand that there are no second chances to get it right, and that we are obsessed with getting it right. This is your wedding, our work will tell your story forever, and we don’t take that lightly. At all.

This husband and wife duo is the real deal! I have been in 15+ wedding in my life I've seen just about everything. They absolutely exceeded every expectation. The pictures are just on another level. Their ability to efficiently pose large groups is the best I've ever seen. I seen other photographers waste so much time trying to do this but they nailed it in no time at all. The intimate photos getting ready before the ceremony look like they belong in a fashion magazine. They literally got better and better as the night went on. Our reception was action packed, my wife and I danced a good 75% of the time and every time I looked up from the fun they were there capturing all the genuine happy moments with friends and family. The candid photos are so good , looking through the mountain of photos they gave us feels like living my wedding night over every time. Not to mention they gave us like 100 pictures the day after that we shared immediately on social media. Then gave all the rest to us 1 month after the wedding. I can not recommend them enough... for what they gave me I honestly feel like they should have charged me double.

I stay behind the camera because I'm more than a little introverted. That is, until I get to know people. Then I open up and we can talk about movies, music, dogs (I'm happy to show you pictures and videos of my rescue dog). I love what I do because I get to capture moments between you and the most important people in your life that you'll be able to relive for decades to come!

Casey photographed my wedding in 2008. We chose him because we really found his photography to be stylish and beautiful without being pricey or pretentious, and we found it in him. Of course we had a budget, but Casey worked with us every step of the way to make it work without pressure. He made eye contact when we spoke, took notes and was attentive and sensitive to every detail. I finally felt seen. I didn't feel like I was just another bride. In that moment; I was THE BRIDE. At the wedding he was a calming presence, as he and his assistant helped with details sometimes above and beyond his job description. When it came time to actually pose with some family members, he was patient and his comedic personality kept us all entertained through those "mandatory photos". The rest? Well it was on artistic auto-pilot from there, it was incredibly smooth. He is able to move around the room capturing the pure emotions that made your day, yours. I remember him being there of course, but I just remember having the best time of my life;not if I closed one eye or had lipstick on my teeth. Our photos were the simply the best photojournalism I had ever seen. My jaw dropped because I don't consider myself photogenic AT ALL (hello, double chin! Just why? EVERY pic from girl's night..really?) but there it was. I looked GOOD. Everyone did. Great light and texture...high-def LOVE. It was INCREDIBLY difficult to narrow down the pics we wanted to an amazing album that he retouched to perfection and arranged! So. In conclusion.... Stop. Looking. Further. You found him. Be Happy. And Congrats on one of the first of many smart decisions as you begin your new life together.

At the end of the day, I’m just a guy that loves weddings. Both photographing them and going to one as a guest. The joy, the laughter, the butterflies in stomach. The tears. The celebration. Oh yes, the food. I believe the focal point of a good wedding photography is at the literal and creative portrayal of the emotions between the couple as well as their loved ones. My sincere hope as a wedding photographer is that one day you and your loved ones will look at the images that I created and be reminded of the amazing gratitude you feel for each other.

I’ll try to keep this short: I’m a silly, introverted, rule breaker with a sincere whimsical streak. Originally from Iowa with a decent chunk of time spent bopping between Minneapolis and Oregon, I love weddings + photography (duh), my nephew, a stiff gin + tonic, propagating too many damn houseplants, and my cats. Last I checked I’m an INFP, Enneagram 4, and Capricorn which makes me quite the pragmatic daydreamer + observer: as unnecessarily prepared as a Boy Scout, curiously creative, and hella laid back, all of which uniquely prepares me for the ebb and flow of a wedding day.

I can't say enough good things about Caitlin! My partner and I wanted more non-traditional portraiture for both our engagement photos and wedding and Caitlin just immediately understood the vibe we wanted. She's great at getting to know her clients and making you feel comfortable in front of the lens. Similarly, she just melts into the background during the wedding and captures everything you wanted and more, all without being front and center. You won't regret hiring her and I'd say book her while you still can, because she's only set to blow up more :)

WE ARE BASED IN NYC AND TAKE WEDDING COMISSIONS ALL AROUND THE US AND ABROAD BUT WE ARE ORIGINALLY FROM SPAIN AND PUERTO RICO MARIA IS YOUR PHOTOGRAPHER, ALL THE IMAGES ARE TAKEN AND EDITED BY HER. RICARDO IS YOUR VIDEOGRAPHER AND RUNS THE BUSINESS AND MAKES SURE EVERYTHING GOES AS IT SHOULD. THERE IS A LOT GOING ON BEHIND THE SCENES.OUR PHOTOGRAPHY IS BOLD & CREATIVE, AIMING TO TELL STORIES AND DOCUMENT THE REAL MOMENTS. WE ARE MORE THAN HAPPY TO SHOOT A FEW FORMALS AND WE ALWAYS LOOK FORWARD TO THE BRIDE AND GROOM SESSIONS.

This review is massively long overdue (we got married 5/20/2022), but I absolutely have to write one. Maria and Ricky are hands down the BEST people and we could not have been luckier to have the pleasure of them capturing our wedding! They got exactly the vibes we wanted, all the shots we wanted, were so easy to communicate with, and are just the nicest and most fun people! We did our engagement shoot with them in NYC and the photos could not have been any better. We communicated the types of shots we were looking for and, since they were living there, they were able to give us the best tips for location and shots! Our wedding was better than we could have ever imagined. We got the best posed shots and the absolute best candid shots. We barely even realized the were photographing/taking video of us during the reception which we loved, but we also just loved their presence. They were so much fun and added to the party, they were dancing while shooting and made everyone so happy and comfortable. Our guests still talk about them and how awesome they are! Our video is breathtaking, we are taken back to the day every time we watching and it always brings us to tears. The photos are incredible; we constantly look through our photos and love displaying them in our home to look at all the time. We have since referred several people to them because we would love everyone to have the same experience we had!

No two weddings (like no two paintings) will ever be the same. Our approach: candid, photojournalistic, natural. We are here to capture the creatives in love. The real, the authentic you.

I’ve always enjoyed people immensely, from all walks of life and from wherever I’ve been in the world. I’m friendly, easy-going, curious, kind, supportive, and flexible. I listen and observe. These characteristics, combined with my artistic vision and technical expertise, allow me to capture poignant, humorous and truly candid photos of people and their environment.

I searched for a photographer to capture my surprise proposal to my then-girlfriend and am I glad I found Laurie. She was flexible, professional, helpful, and above all really good at taking photographs. We worked through an initial cancellation, she rescheduled with me around the holidays, she knew where and how to take the best shots and she struck the perfect chord of incorporating our wishes during the surprise engagement shoot while standing true when she knew where a good shot would come (and she was right). From meeting with me for a walk-through a few weeks before the surprise to perfectly blending into the crowds at Central Park for the surprise engagement, Laurie went above and beyond and really made the surprise engagement one my fiancé and I can remember forever.

They create and forge lasting bonds and capture not just the wedding but every single special moment and detail flawlessly. Every client is blown away by their work, and if your looking to have an amazing photo experience, then JAG is who you should go with. As a client, renewing my ten-year anniversary vows, I wanted a photographer that could capture the years and moments that it took myself and my husband to get to this point. To be very honest, I was pretty freaked about having my photos taken; I am a behind the scenes gal! However, both Jacklyn and Chris not only made us 100% relax, but I barely knew they were taking photos, and when all was said and done and the showed us the end product both my husband and I cried for days because it was more beautiful then we could have ever imagined. They captured who we were as a couple, and as individuals and every moment, moments I did not even think about will forever be in an amazing photograph. Jaclyn Watson Events

We (Melissa & Michael) became wedding photographers because we truly believe we have something different to bring to the table. Our goals are simple: to help you relive each moment of your wedding day every time you look at your images, make you feel comfortable in front of the camera, and blend into the crowd like we're your guests. We pride ourselves on open & honest communication with our couples, a seamless booking-through-wedding-day process, super speedy photo delivery, and lending a helping hand in any way we can.

This review is long overdue and well deserved. If you only have time to read one more sentence: Hire Melissa and be confident that you will get the photos and vision you want on your special day! We partnered with Melissa at Sava Studio for our wedding this past September and she shot, composed and edited our engagement photos as well. Melissa as a vendor is responsive, friendly, knowledgeable, creative and gregarious. She was always open and transparent with us, patient listening to what we thought we wanted and our vision and was always available to offer feedback as we requested. She walked us through the entire wedding process with respect to the photography aspect and she also offered assistance as we needed in related areas as we got closer to our wedding date. Our first interaction with her was our engagement photo shoot and Melissa made my partner and I feel comfortable while she was shooting and she was very flexible in the shots we wanted to take and what we wanted to see. Very importantly for me, Melissa has a great eye for a memorable photo! Getting to see the raw photos as well as the edited ones Melissa showed us her talent and professionalism. We shot in bright sunlight, shade and darker areas and Melissa was able to handle it all. Our wedding was a few months later at our parents house and the area that the ceremony took place in was unique in that there were a lot of trees/shadows/light patterns to manage. Melissa handled it all! She and her partner used every trick in the book to get the best photos of my wife and I and were able to take some classic natural/unposed shots of us. It speaks to her professionalism and vision that she knew where to be and when to get the best shots! Post-wedding, Melissa had us a sizable preview to review almost 24 hours after the wedding so she could collect feedback before sending us our final photo collection. Once sent, Melissa/Sava made it very easy for us to share photos with family and friends and access them in the future for when we wanted to reminisce. We can't thank Melissa enough and we recommend Melissa at Sava for all of your photography needs!

We had the pleasure of hiring a documentary-style wedding photographer for our special day, and I couldn't be happier with the results. Their ability to capture candid moments and genuine emotions was truly remarkable. The photos tell a story that goes beyond posed shots, giving us a vivid and authentic memory of our wedding. Their attention to detail is impeccable, and they have a keen eye for capturing the little moments that often go unnoticed. From the laughter shared between guests to the heartfelt glances exchanged during the ceremony, every emotion was beautifully documented. Not only did they capture the essence of the day, but they did so with a level of professionalism and discretion that put everyone at ease. They seamlessly blended into the background, allowing for natural interactions and genuine expressions to shine through. Their post-processing work enhanced the photos without veering into heavy editing, maintaining the genuine feel of the day. The color palettes and tones used in the final edits were tastefully done, adding to the overall storytelling. We wholeheartedly recommend this photographer to anyone seeking more than just pictures – they deliver an emotional journey through their lens. If you're looking for a wedding photographer who can capture the true essence of your day, this documentary-style photographer is an absolute must.

I find that I thrive most when I get to work with couples who are so involved in the moment, they don’t care much about a wrinkle in their dress or a misplaced hair.

We loved our photos from the elopement, and we are sure we’ll love the rest of the wedding photos when they come back. Thank you for everything. You had such a calming presence, and your work is exquisite! I’d recommend Marci to anyone looking for documentary style photography of their wedding day.

Let's connect - I'd love to hear from you!

Look no further! Claire is, by far, the most professional and reasonably priced wedding photographer in the Tristate Area. She was recommended to me by a very close friend who is also a wedding photographer. Claire started out as her assistant, but assistant she is no more! She is great at what she does and is extremely personable. We met for a drink and within 1min I knew she was who we would go with. She is calm, organized, friendly and good at her job! What more could you ask for? Besides our wedding coordinator, Claire was the one who made our wedding happen. Her timelines and schedule helped the day move along smoothly, she made sure we took great sunset beach pictures and (thankfully) convinced me to do a first look so we didn't completely miss our cocktail hour. We had 260 guests, most of them being family members, which would not be an easy task for anyone. Claire was professional and helpful and somehow it all worked out perfectly. The turnaround was very quick; we were able to make Christmas cards out of pictures she took less than 2 months before. We are still using her website to order prints (which come out beautifully btw) and will continue to do so! We are so thankful that this part of our wedding turned out as amazing as it did. Photos can make or break a day, and ours was a homerun!

I found my passion for art while growing up surrounded by horses in a small town in Brazil. The shapes, textures, and colors of the horses always have been inspiring to me. I’ve always wanted to recreate them, but was never really able to. Honestly, my painting/drawing skills were and still are terrible, and that’s when photography came up in my life. I would create imaginary cameras out of my toys and would ‘photograph’ the horses and my neighbors. Photographing people became my passion and then evolved into my work in editorial and wedding photography.

I can't post enough praise about Gui from 98 Wedding Co, and I'm SHOCKED there's not more reviews here. We recently had our engagement shoot with him and let me tell you-- we were blown away by the photos. We were looking for an editorial style that screamed NYC, and Gui captured it perfectly. All my family and friends were amazed at the shots and could not stop raving about how well he captured us and our vision. It looks like a spread out of Vogue! My fiance and I are also pretty awkward in front of the camera, and Gui's calm and relaxed presence was a breath of fresh air. He knew all the right spots and best places to get the perfect lighting and framing, a true expert in his craft! I can't wait to see how perfectly he captures our wedding and will be sure to update this review when the photos are inevitably stunning as well. Thank you Gui!!!

Amy Milstein Photography

New York, NY

  • Serves Staten Island, NY

As my Instagram bio says, I'm a country girl by birth, a city girl by choice and a photographer by obsession. I grew up on a farm in a small Midwestern town, but have lived in New York City for over 25 years. As a photographer I say I'm self-taught, but in reality I've had the benefit of amazing mentors and teachers along the way who helped me elevate my work and pursue joy along with results. When not making photos or hanging out with my husband and kids, you can find me with a book in hand or listening to music while indulging my love of textiles at my sewing machine (yes, I really own a sewing machine)! Oh, or dancing! :-)

We loved having Amy photograph our wedding day! Her style of photography is completely different from traditional wedding photography. Amy's candid photography really captured the emotion of the day and we love the black and white prints! Amy worked so well with our other more traditional photographer. The shooting is so different that there was zero interference. We cherish our photos and highly recommend anyone getting married to consider hiring Amy to capture the day!

Hi! I grew up in NY and came to Milwaukee 8 years ago - you could say it was for love. We have settled in and embraced our new community. I have been so lucky to always have working with people at the forefront of everything I do. From teaching to non profit work, photography allows me to do all of those things. I LOVE being outside and exploring new places. We live on the shores of Lake Michigan and visit the beach regularly year round. When I am not frolicking and photographing amazing people, I am usually spending time with my nutty little family outside.

It’s been over a month after my wedding and I’m still wondering if it is acceptable to love you wedding photographer more then your husband??? I can not speak more highly of Chelsea! When we first met I knew it was meant to be, her passion for capturing love and telling a love story just pours out of her. When looking for a wedding photographer we wanted someone who was easy going, professional, fun to work with, and loved love as much of us, Chelsea blew these “requirements” out of the water. Not only is she an amazing, kind, caring person but her work is is equally amazing. We love that her photos are edited in a natural way and that she captures all of the small natural moments. Nothing every seemed forced! My husband and I highly recommend Chelsea Matson Photographer! We are so grateful that she came into our lives (for good now) and could capture the most important day of our lives.

I grew up in Texas and married a beautiful brown-eyed Jersey girl on a mountaintop in the Hudson Valley. I have the greatest job in the world. I’m lucky enough to witness tears of joy, celebrations of life and the continuation of family legacies on a weekly basis. I put everything I have into my photos, and I’m humbled and inspired by couples who trust me to tell their story.

Lev was hands down the best decision we made for our wedding! His photography skills are beyond talented and his approach to setting up shots is very different than the traditional wedding photographer (with so many "planned" shots and people standing in a line). It was this unique approach that drew me to asking him to photograph for our big day...and luckily, he was available! Plus, at the end of the day, the photographs are one of the few tangible items that one will have to remember the big day. I cannot recommend Lev enough. Anyone would be lucky to have him as their photographer and have all of your married friends envious that they did not have him for their wedding!!

Hello there! I’m Karen, a wedding and portrait photographer based out of New York. I love photographing LOVE! Connections. The places we go, the people we meet, and the experiences we have along the way are what we remember most in life. I have a passion for traveling and exploring the world, and my life is filled with a lot of laughter, incredible food and wine, and photo adventures with clients turned friends.Memories are such a vivid representation of our lives and capturing the spirit of each couple, family or individual in that sliver of time is an opportunity I am very proud to call my work.

Karen is an amazing photographer with an INCREDIBLE EYE! She captures moments and details that most people miss, but that everyone wants to remember. I worked with Karen at a wedding on the California Coast and was so impressed by her professionalism, warm demeanor and efficiency. The images from the wedding (and my florals) were stunning. I recommend Karen wholeheartedly, and can't wait to work with her again!

Hi! I’m Grace Taylor: New Yorker who lived in Charleston, SC during the pandemic. As you can tell through my photography, I love to travel and would be willing to travel for you! With that said, all my pricing has travel costs baked into it. Fun fact: I've traveled to 15 countries in the last 5 years. If you’re in a any of my “bucket-list” locations, you get an additional 20% off. Additional queries about pricing and availability, shoot me an email! * If you're interested, please inquire through my website *

Grace is so easy to work with and super friendly. She is able to stick to a schedule to get all of your must have shots taken without making you feel rushed on your big day. She is also super friendly and enjoyable to be around, something that you would want to have in a vendor that’s with you the majority of your wedding day. Her photo quality is unreal, and her creativity with shots helped to capture the essence of our wedding, which was nothing short of a dream come true.

The hype is real future brides and grooms! Jess and Jose at La Vie Studios are the real deal. The only way you'll go wrong is if you dislike quality, wonderful humans, and amazing wedding/engagement pictures. Here's why... Our wedding pictures and video came out phenomenal! The quality and talent these two have is beyond. I love their style and approach to photography. Business-wise—They were quick and seamless with communication and logistics. They not only work well together but with the entire wedding team (wedding coordinator, stylist, chef, you name it). Also, they give the best recommendations for other wedding services—they will not steer you wrong! Thanks to them we had the best DJ and danced for 3 straight hours. My husband and I absolutely love Jess and Jose from the moment we met them. They take the time to get to know their couples and it honestly makes a difference. We love them and will forever recommend La Vie Studios. Even if Jess and Jose don't get to shoot your wedding, I trust their photographers because I trust them to the max, so I wouldn't turn them down if they aren't available for your day! So with that, we hope you highly consider La Vie Studios for your wedding photos and video!

I want to adventure with you. Truly, I just want to be your best friend. And maybe take some photos of you in the process.

“Photography takes a moment out of life…and holds it still” A small collection of photographers who strive to capture the emotion and energy of life’s significant moments in a sophisticated yet understated light hearted way.

My husband and I cannot thank Hechler Photographers enough for everything. It was such a joy shooting with Julio for our engagement shoot in downtown Manhattan and our Rehearsal Dinner at the Union League Club in NYC, and we loved shooting with Julio, David, and John (the videographer) on our wedding day that took place on May 18, 2024 at the Metropolitan Club in NYC. From the moment we met David (recommended by our amazing planner, Jeff Stillwell of Stillwell Events), we knew it was a wonderful match. David is extremely professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and an amazing listener. When David referenced notes from our very first conversation a year and a half later (just a little under a month from our wedding), I was beyond impressed and truly touched. We greatly appreciate how David, Julio, and John were all able to quickly respond in the moment and pivot as needed, whether it was to ensure my hair could be touched up to stay perfectly in place or that we could have time to relax before key moments (e.g., the ceremony). As an incredibly detail-oriented bride, I am so grateful for all the attention to detail that was demonstrated from the beginning of our wedding day to the end of the evening. David, Julio, and John managed to strike the perfect balance of making their presence known, while blending in perfectly (one of my friends had commented that most photographers & videographers she had seen at weddings were so loud and even disruptive). Not this team!!!! I will also be forever grateful for all the encouragement and helpful tips and pointers/direction that David and Julio provided throughout Friday and Saturday to make sure that everyone looked and felt their best while remaining confident in being themselves. I still have Julio’s voice in my head saying, “Work it!” I am so grateful that David and Julio were able to capture all the photos and videos on my extensive shot list, and then some!! My husband, our families, and I cannot wait to see these photos and videos - if the engagement shoot photos are any indication of what's to come, these photos and videos are going to be absolutely magnificent. David, Arthur, Julio, and Casey, thank you for everything! It has been such a pleasure working with you all. This past weekend felt like heaven on earth, and I’m so glad we chose you all to capture these memories we will cherish forever and ever. -Nicole & Kyle May 18, 2024

In the 1950s & 60s, The Bronx was home to an amazing photographer that captured weddings and family events. His name? Warren Meurer aka the “Silverfox” (due to his flowing silver and gray locks). Fast forward to the early 1990s, Warren’s grandson, John Salkowsky, decided to follow in his grandfather’s footsteps and open a wedding photography and video studio. When it came time to name this newly formed company, there was only ONE name it could possibly have – Silverfox Studios.

I have been working with Silver Fox Studios for more than 10 years. John and his team are professional, courteous, honorable and kind aside from being great photographers. It is a pleasure to work with the Silver Fox, they always go the extra mile for their clients and always work seamlessly with my team.

The heart of photography is storytelling. I bring my experience as a photojournalist to tell your story. Each event is as unique as you are and the images reflect the genuine love you feel and people you care most about. It's my objective to capture your story by preserving the memories of how you felt on that special day. The power of photography lies in capturing a split second of a moment in time. I believe that the spontaneous moments are the foundation of any meaningful experience. I specialize in a candid and unobtrusive approach by focusing on the big and small moments, the interactions and relationships.

Agaton is a true professional but manages to be personable at the same time. My couples always tell me how lovely he is (though I already know!) and his photos are INCREDIBLE! He goes to great lengths to get the perfect photographs & his albums are always breathtaking.

I've been in love with the art of photography for as long as I can remember, and I'm truly blessed to be able to pursue my passion every day. Growing up all over the world (Sweden, India, and Denmark to name a few!), my love of photography grew from my desire to capture the places and people I wanted to remember the most. What I love most is the incredible honor of being part of your special day and capturing the deep emotions behind the photograph.

We were so fortunate to come in touch with Nithya through Zola! When I found out in early September that things fell through with a local photographer for my October wedding, I emailed 10 photographers on Zola, desperate to find out about their availability. I had a reply from Nithya the next morning, and after a wonderful chat, she became my new photographer! I loved her enthusiasm and how she talked about her work and the types of photos she wanted to capture that day. Many guests have mentioned how she was always in the background the entire evening, totally focused on her work. We found a gem in Nithya and we can't wait to look at her photos!

I am a mom, wife, photographer, and lawyer. I am careful about the couples I work with because as busy as I am, I want to feel as though I am capturing an event for people I truly care about. To put the love and care into my work that I do, I have to have a good relationship with my clients, and I do. This is OUR wedding! WE want perfection in the memories captured.

Planning a wedding is an event in itself, but when you partner with great professionals it eases the anxiety. Nana Annan is one of those individuals. Working with Nana and the team was such a great experience for my husband and I. She works with you to help bring your vision to life through her lens! Even through the laughter and tears on my wedding day, Nana helped me through it all. I'm happy that she was a part of the team that got me down the aisle. I absolutley loved working with her that she made me an honorary partner - I have the button to prove it!
