I can't say enough great things about NJ Wedding Studio! Frank was so easy to work with and our photographer, Daniel, is GREAT at what he does! When I first reached out to Frank, he responded back right away with pricing and everything I might need to know. We scheduled a phone conference to talk more about what my husband and I were looking for. Right away, I got the sense that Frank was so organized and knew what he was doing. Throughout the entire process, Frank was answering our questions promptly and never left us in the dark. We scheduled an engagement photo session with Daniel and couldn't have been happier! I'm personally not comfortable in front of the camera, but Daniel posed us throughout the entire session and made us feel very at ease. Daniel was also very easy to work with. We got our photos back EARLY in color and black and white. The quality was amazing and they turned out beautiful. On our wedding day, Daniel was prompt and got started with the photos right away. He followed what my husband and I wanted to capture, as well as other photos I wouldn't have even thought to take. He arrived at 1pm and was with us until 11pm. He captured us getting ready, first look, group shots, ceremony and party shots. We got a sneak peek not even 24 hours later and to say they looked amazing is an understatement! We received all of our pictures 3 weeks later and enjoyed looking at them together. Not a single moment was missed. Thank you, NJ Wedding Studio, for being apart of our dream wedding!

We are a married couple of photographers. Within years of career, we discovered what’s really matters - we want to make people happy. Weddings have it all: new interesting people, touching stories, warm family relationships, tears. A lot of tears! Oh, don’t forget dances and sparklers! So, it’s fun! 🙂 Also, we love weddings because it’s the most challenging kind of photography in the field, it combines all the genres. It make you think, move and react quickly in constantly changing surrounding. We have no room for mistakes. So It’s never boring! 🙂

We hired Flo as our wedding photographer and as part of the package an engagement session was included. The engagement photos were so much fun to take, and we were so grateful to Flo for her inclusion of our Great Dane, Jerry. Our experience with Flo and her team leading up to and on the day of our wedding was exceptional! Prior to the big day, she was communicative and very helpful when it came to coordinating our timeline. On the day of, she and her team arrived ready and in great spirits, which enhanced the festive mood of the day. Flo made us feel at ease throughout all the group photos and made a point to capture the most lovely sunset photos of just the two of us. Looking through our gallery we are transported right back to the day of the event as she and her team did a wonderful job of capturing us, our guests, and all the little details in between. Image our shock when a drone video was also made possible (a service we highly recommend)!

Hi! I’m Justin (he/him) and I’m here to affirm your love, make you feel like a fucking rockstar, and dance like a total fool. Oh, and take so many gorgeous photos of y’all. Obvs. My style blends both documentary photojournalism and fine art photography: coaching folks who are shy in front of the camera, then stepping back to capture authentic moments uninterrupted. I’ve been lucky enough to have my work published by A Practical Wedding, The New York Times, GLAMOUR, People Magazine and many other fabulous outlets. I'm a stereotypical Capricorn that loves drag shows, campy horror films, every dog I meet, and Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups.

We can’t say enough wonderful things about Justin! My husband and I just got the first batch of our wedding photos, and they look exactly the way the day felt: beautiful, warm, and authentically happy. From our first call, it was clear Justin understood exactly what we wanted from our wedding photos, and from our wedding in general. Throughout the entire wedding planning process, he was kind, respectful, and genuinely interested in getting to know us. By the day of the wedding, we were excited to hang out with him and introduce him to our friends! Justin and Emily made everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera, and even managed to get our 2 year-old nephew to stand still long enough for some great photos. Working with Justin was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding!

Hi, I'm Celeste, I'm from a small town in Spain. Now leaving in NY. I have spent the last seven years getting to know new humans and documenting their stories and connections. How they got into that point of their life, and what makes them light up. I feel it is quite a responsibility and a significant honor to be able to create this legacy for them.

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Celeste (and her second shooter) for our wedding and are incredibly happy with our decision. From the engagement shoot to our wedding day Celeste has been such a professional and a pleasure to be around. We do not love attention so we greatly appreciate how easy she is to work with, and how natural everything felt during our photo shoots. At our engagement shoot, she made us feel so incredibly comfortable (coming from two people who are admittedly very camera shy and not big on PDA), and we ended up with the most gorgeous and effortlessly cool shots. Celeste brought amazing energy on our wedding day, and helped bring out the best of us in pictures. Celeste was thorough in preparing the wedding day shot list ahead of time, and got all of the portraits we wanted. We experienced some bad weather at the beginning of the day, and Celeste took all of the stress away by finding the most stunning indoor & covered spots for first look and portraits, and arranging for outdoor pictures when the weather cleared up. Best of all, she was able to turn around a preview / sample of the wedding photos within a day (!!!), so we were able to show her beautiful work to everyone who asked to see pictures during the weeks following our wedding. We are so incredibly happy with outcome of the photos and we couldn’t say enough great things about Celeste’s artistry and the experience of working with her. 11/10 would recommend Celeste for both her professionalism and quality of work. We will absolutely be hiring Celeste in the future if we ever need professional photographs!

Our wedding day in Central Park was an absolute dream, thanks to our amazing photographer Amy! We couldn't have imagined our day without her. She was extremely professional, very organized, and most importantly brought a really positive energy. She was so easy to work with from the interview to the wedding day itself, which was really important to us because we were organizing the wedding from Canada. Amy is so experienced and really put us at ease. She was great at getting everyone together for photographs and getting the kids to smile by saying something silly. All of our guests loved her. She also anticipated our needs and just knew the perfect time for a snack or a break. Amy has a great eye for the most beautiful pictures. We knew this from her portfolio but it's really cool to see this in action. She would catch the smallest details, like a water bottle, or a brightly coloured jacket, or people in the background. She scouted the most beautiful locations for us and it was really cool watching her frame the perfect shots. And when we got the pictures back, they really were perfect! Amy's greatest talent is capturing amazing candid moments and people's unique personalities. And because she puts people so at ease, she gets the best photos out of them, even if you're a little camera shy. Amy made our day into something truly extraordinary, and we couldn't be happier with the memories she captured for us!

Hey, I'm Mary! It's nice to meet you. Summing up who I am in an "about me" is always difficult. What you must know: (1) I'm a nerd. If you want to talk video games, LOTR or Doctor Who, we HAVE to sit down for a bourbon or a coffee. (2) Yes, I will be out on that dance floor with you snapping away while joining in on the fun. And (3), while I'm a photographer first, supporting you during the planning process feels crucial to me - from building a timeline to having your back any way I can.

Awarded Best of Zola
Mary is IT. Just book her. We didn't realize when first booking with her how vital she would become to our wedding day (and to us). She is so observant (which shows in the photos and tiny moments of joy she captured) and made sure every detail from the timeline to our final exit was planned even before we knew what we needed. Also, every time I lost my lipstick during the day, which was often, Mary always pulled it out of her pocket like magic. She truly watched out for us and supported us in everything. She is also so lovely and warm. Your family will love her, your friends will love her, you. will. love. her.

My bridesmaids and groomsmen had all formal, fun, and creative pictures from the prep time to the end of reception! As our wedding was multi-ethnic wedding where two very different cultures combine together, I really wanted pictures that can highlight amazing sides of the both parties and Eric really did an amazing job that I could not love more! He was a very nice professional photographer I have ever worked with. The return of our wedding pictures was very quick too (2 weeks).

After working 10+ years in corporate America in NYC, California and traveling the globe, I found myself wanting more than what the traditional career path had set for me.

From the very first wedding I shot, I knew I was onto something. And ever since then, I haven't looked back.

Hi, my name is Millie! I picked up a camera 11 years ago and I've been wholeheartedly devoted to this craft ever since. Through photography, I've come to understand that the meaningful connections I form with others hold a special significance for me and should be documented. My journey has naturally directed me toward wedding photography, enabling me to translate your love into art. To me, nothing compares to distilling love into photographs.

Millie had originally gifted me with a free session via an Instagram contest she had. Little did I know that after that my (now fiancé) had reached out to her to help him plan the most beautiful proposal during our shoot. Not only did the photos turn out incredibly gorgeous, but working with Millie from beginning to end was the best experience. I was so nervous for photos and she eased my nerves and made me feel really comfortable and confident in myself. While planning she listened to things that I was interested in and came up with a wonderful plan for our day together. Overall I had the best day of my life (so noted in my title), and cannot wait to work with Millie again in the future!!

He was cooperative, communicative, and his collaborative spirit made the overall wedding experience more enjoyable for everyone involved. I would highly recommend him to any couple looking for a professional photographer who can turn their special day into a visual masterpiece.

I photograph love because I believe in it. I don’t believe in it in the way that a little girl believes in ferries or unicorns, a hopeful “I think it is real” kind of a belief, I believe in its power. I believe that love is the most important emotion we will feel in this lifetime and I believe it has the greatest ability for good. I believe that each human on this earth should have the opportunity to feel deeply loved and to love another deeply themselves. I believe that love is something that should be treasured, cared for, and celebrated.

Awarded Best of Zola
Allison is incredible! Her eye for capturing a scene, capturing color, capturing details is fantastic. I have looked back at our wedding photos so many times, and find something new to love about them each time. There is nothing trendy about her style. It's not sepia toned to make it feel "boho" or whitewashed to make it feel "bright and airy." It's true to life, yet somehow slightly better. She captures the moment, but at the same time enhances it. She is also just a joy to have as part of your team on your wedding day. Happy, calm, but still up for anything!

She is truly a professional with a bubbly, upbeat attitude and she possesses the rare ability to make you feel like the most important person in the world when she speaks to you. Not only did she remember our wedding day details, but also she made an attempt (successfully) to remember all the names of our family members and friends. My husband and I were also blown away by her amazing talent of being in five places at once on our wedding day. Mikkel captured absolutely gorgeous photos that look bright and natural--exactly what we wanted! It is impossible to pick a handful of favorites from her gallery because they are all gorgeous. We cannot thank her enough for her positivity, professionalism, and eye for what we wanted to remember. You have found your photographer here- look no further :)

I found my love for photography in a high school dark room, and I have continued to follow that passion to find myself today working as a hybrid photographer in both Film and Digital. I strive not to just take pictures, but to capture candid emotions and capture them in a beautiful way. My photography is personal and intimate. My approach is a mixture of fine art and documentary, I try to capture your moments and day as it happened but highlighting the special details and taking advantage of the best lighting. As a lover of history I love capturing personal and family histories that surround weddings.

Awarded Best of Zola
Just a few minutes into our first conversation with Judson, we knew she was our wedding photographer. She was great to work with — very easy-going, fun and the utmost professional who has a fantastic eye and the patience of a saint for our ... always sort of "extra" family — and dog, Kona, who refused to cooperate with most pictures haha. My husband and I normally shy away from being in front of the camera, but with Judson's energy and personality, our discomfort quickly melted away, and we could just focus on having the best day of our lives. She even got us to dance atop one of the hills on Roosevelt Island, which ended up being some of our favorite pics! By the end of the night, it was like Judson had been part of our family forever. I know she'd be a great addition to your family and wedding, too. We cannot recommend her enough! She really listens to what you want and delivers the most beautiful memories.

We want to get to know you and build a friendship that extends beyond our lens. Our goal is to capture genuine memories that you'll cherish for years to come.

Awarded Best of Zola
I looked through several different groups when attempting to find the best photographer for our wedding and Hevesi Journal made it easy to choose them. We mainly interacted with Katie, who was professional and calming and funny throughout every encounter. We did our engagement photos with her as well as our wedding photos and both sets turned out better than I could have imagined. Getting photographs that really showed the essence of us as a couple was one of the more important things we had hoped for when planning the wedding and this goal was certainly achieved. For our engagement photos, Katie followed us up a mountain and during the wedding she made sure that all of our desired groupings (for example, my father and his siblings) were captured with ease. I would 100% use their services again and if I have anything that needs documenting in the future will not be hesitating to reach out.

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!

And boy did I hit the jackpot with Mina! Her skills are INCREDIBLE. Our photos are absolutely stunning and I’ve received so many compliments. Not only that but we received our photos so quickly. A lot of people only give you the bare minimum edited photos but she edited almost every single one!!

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.

Highly professional, talented, organised and a great communicator, with an eye for detail! She captured all those special moments without being intrusive or even knowing that she was there. My husband is not a fan of the camera, Emma worked with it, didn’t make it a problem and captured some fantastic candid photos!

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. My creative journey began when I spent a decade touring the country with my indie rock band, The Booda Velvets. While on tour I was always taking photos with my dad’s old Pentax film camera and a Polaroid SX70. 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.

When I'm not photographing weddings, you can bet I'm either reading or writing fiction (currently working on a project set in Pennsylvania coal country, where my grandfather grew up), watching or rewatching great television

Bo and her assistant were absolutely amazing. Bo was very organised through the planning process, responding to emails quickly, and assisting with any questions I had. She was flexible in adjusting the contract after life got crazy and we weren't able to squeeze in our engagement photos. On the day, she was incredible. She knew exactly where to go, was calm throughout when everyone decided they wanted group photos after the ceremony and ate into the sunset hour. She and her assistant worked seamlessly, was never intruding, and took gorgeous photos and I will forever be grateful!

Twah is pronounced as it’s spelled or like “3” in French. My boutique photography business is rooted in NYC but always ready to travel the world. As a former NYC Fashion Designer, I take my knowledge of style & weave it into my photography approach. I believe: 1. Your wedding day should not be spent in long posed formal photo sessions. 2. Personal details are an integral part of your day’s story. 3. Wedding images should be timeless yet stylishly current and natural. 3. Making the most of a rainy day or a mishap usually ends up being fun memories to look back on. 4. Beauty is within. Positivity radiates. Authenticity is perfection.

Twah is an artist, a professional and an amazing spirit to work with. She is fantastic for the bride and groom as well as the planner. We highly highly recommend Twah for her process, her kindness, and her product. She cares about the client and all of the details of the day and goes unnoticed while capturing it all.

I’ve dedicated years to learning the ins and outs of wedding formalities, but it’s the oft-forgotten bits of emotion that make the day feel so exceedingly special, not the shot list. With a day full of nothing but emotion, it’s easy for some moments to slip past unnoticed, but not by me. I’ll be there to make sure the heart of your day makes its way back to you — so you can remember what really mattered on your wedding day.

Awarded Best of Zola
Where do we begin with The Greens? Finding the perfect photographer(s) to capture all those important moments on your wedding day can be a hard task, but Zac and Madison made saying yes to them so easy. We first met The Greens for our engagement photo session and knew that it was important to see how we all interacted. Not only did we have so much fun hanging out with them, our pictures were absolutely beautiful. We could only imagine how our wedding pictures would turn out. We received sneak peeks just the morning after and couldn't believe how fast and dedicated they were to make sure we got them. This was the same case for our wedding also which was incredible. The Greens worked really well with our wedding planner and helped make our wedding day run so smoothly. Their personalized photography timeline proved how well organized they are, and we kept getting compliments from our wedding guests how fun, friendly, and engaging Zac and Madison. We could go on and on about how great The Greens are because they really are. We are so thankful to have met them and if you're looking for what we believe are the best wedding photographers, Zac and Madison are it.

FABRICE TRANZER

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $7,500

What keeps me wanting to photograph more weddings is the realization that every wedding carries a different story longing to be told. No two weddings have ever felt the same to me, and when I walk into yours, all the images I have made at other weddings are forgotten. I see it a bit like jazz, or French cuisine--the ingredients are simple and pretty much always the same, but the outcomes are always unique, never to be reproduced to the identical.

Awarded Best of Zola
Fabrice is a phenomenal photographer and we loved working with him for our wedding. He was easy to work with both in preparation for the big day, and on the day itself. He has a special eye that captures moments perfectly, and ties them together to make you feel like you’re watching the day on film (yet it’s all ‘still’ photos). He is an artist and a master of his craft. I’m honored and grateful we had the chance to work with him. In addition to all of the above, he delivered our photos in a very reasonable amount of time (can’t recall exact timing). Within a week, he sent a slideshow to a Bon Iver song that my husband and I watch a few times each year (we’re on year 3 of marriage), and we both tear up every time. While he must have taken thousands of photos, he didn’t send us every last one. He did a great job hand selecting plenty… and not giving us 30 of the same’ish’ shot. We really appreciated that. We opted to purchase an album from him which was an investment we would make over and over again. While he let me help with the design, he truly knows best. In my opinion you do not need a videographer if you invest in the right photographer. Fabrice is the right photographer.

We are so happy to have hired Angelica and her team. From the start she listened to what we needed, catered to our vision for our wedding photos, and delivered breathtaking images. Any questions we had she answered, so it was great to have quick communication with her, as most of our vendors took almost a week to get back to us! We go through our photos all the time, and I can honestly say our wedding photos are so much better than my friend's photos! We also had a full album and parent albums in our collection. Our main album came in a gorgeous wooden box. Our parent's album were custom created for them, instead of a replica. We even got a few large photos to decorate our home. They are absolutely gorgeous! We were very happy we did purchase them and Angelica delivered them within two to three months from our wedding! Thanks to her always following up with us, we were able to get our albums designed, our wall art photos chosen, and helped us guide our parents as to what photos to choose for their albums. I have friends still waiting for their albums and photos and it's been almost a year. You can't go wrong with Angelica Criscuolo Photography. She's sweet, a professional, and when it came time to family photos, she was the boss and took charged! We loved it as we have a very boisterous family. Thank you Angelica!

Hi, I am Sasha. I am the creator of Sasha Chou Photography Studio and PicVoyage. I’ve always had a passion for photography. Yet, it wasn’t until I specifically started working as a wedding photographer that I understood the real power of capturing a once-in-a-lifetime kind of moment. I love to travel. I have visited over 35 countries and still counting. I love dancing, especially ballroom dancing. If I am not working, you will find me dancing Latin, Salsa, Samba, Waltz, and Tango at Manhattan Soho studio. I love family and friends. One of my favorite things is to hang out with family or friends for a lovely Sunday brunch.

We had such a great time working with Sasha and her team of photographers and videographers for our wedding. Sasha was always quick to respond to us starting from our initial inquiry to everything else that came after, and especially when discussing changes to ensure we were on the same page before moving forward. She was very easy to work with and spent ample time with us during planning to ensure we were comfortable with the photographers' and videographers' styles. She also ensured the team was well aware of all the events and moments that we wanted captured. The team was fantastic on the wedding day. We had a full day with 3 different stops between Brooklyn and Manhattan that included two Chinese tea ceremonies, and pre-wedding photos all in the hours before the ceremony and reception. The team arrived early to each location, never missing a beat. Every moment that we asked for was beautifully captured in our photos and videos. We purchased three photo albums, one for ourselves which was included in the package, and two more for our respective families. Our albums were unfortunately in production and shipped during the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, the albums were in poor condition. We brought this up to Sasha's attention and she immediately agreed that they were not up to her standards and expectations. Sasha did not hesitate to call us and presented us with a couple of alternatives within a day. Ultimately, the new albums came two weeks later and were even better than what we hoped for. They are perfect! We love our photos, videos, and photo albums. Sasha and her team were very easy to work with and always listened to our input. We highly recommend Sasha Chou Photography to other couples for their big day!

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.

Before I ever held a camera, as a kid I was obsessed with organizing and reorganizing printed family snapshots in albums. This infatuation with captured moments, led to picking out my first film camera, a 35mm Pentax, film developing and darkroom printing in high school, and then my BFA in Photography Degree. From there, I worked in varied sectors of photography, but my true passion lay in documentary work that could bring about awareness of challenging global situations. I have published and exhibited journalistic series internationally, notably at Oxford University and Aperture Foundation.

Jenny took the most beautiful photos of our wedding. From the day we hired her, she was extremely organized, communicative and guided us through the entire process. Jenny took time to listen to us about the specific style and shots we wanted and was flexible in accommodating everything we needed on our wedding day. She also spent the time to get to know us and our style, all of which shows through the photos! Jenny truly captured the essence of our big day and we can highly recommend using her for your wedding!

We concentrate not only on the big picture, but also we take pride in capturing the sincere fleeting moments that evoke the senses the very essence of photography.

Where do I start…I have so many things to praise about Matthew and his team at CLY by Matthew. The search for our photographer took forever, but once I found CLY and Matthew’s work, it was essentially an instantaneous decision. I left the intro meeting/conversation 100% sure we’d hire him. His and his team’s photography is beautiful, elegant, classic, and natural – and it was so easy to work with them from a fit and personality standpoint. I’ll admit, it’s a little awkward to pose for photography! But in the months leading up, and the day of, the wedding, Matthew and his team made us feel very comfortable in front of the camera. Matthew is one of the kindest people ever, and his calm demeanor made everything so pleasant and easy (especially with the frantic nature of wedding planning!) We are in LOVE with the photos we got back. We still can’t even believe it’s us, and our wedding, because the CLY team captured everything so amazingly. It’s surreal! We are so lucky to have found them and worked with Matthew. I’m hoping to find an excuse in the future to work with him again for professional photography. If you’re here and in the middle of researching photographers, stop reading and contact CLY immediately. You won’t regret it, I promise you.

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.

Let me start out by saying Love In Theory is the best wedding photographer out there. Look no further brides and grooms. As a bride, my #1 priority was finding a photographer who would I could trust enough to provide me with photos to capture some of the most special moments of my life. Photography was more important to me than any other vendor (including food and music, and I love food and dancing). After in depth research, I kept going back to Love In Theory. Not just because of their exceptional value, responsiveness, the calming effect of Jacquie's beautiful, warm personality but the pure talent and the love and light that shines through in her photographs. She has a way with capturing the most magical and fairytale-like moments. Her use of color and light come through in every shot. Trust me- just look at her site! My experience working with Jacquie & crew was sheer perfection from start to finish.My husband Tom and I received such an outpouring of positive response from our guests, bridal party and social media friends. Everyone we know has raved about our pictures from Love In Theory but not as much as we can. If anyone needs a recommendation, this is it. Jacquie is an artist and a professional. You are in the best hands with Love In Theory. Aside from her spectacular photography, her attention to detail is exceptional. All of our photos were delivered to us in the most adorable, thoughtful way. Anyone who was blessed enough to work with her knows what I mean by that. We fell in love with Jacquie from day one and now she is a friend to us. I posted about this photographer in the past after she shot our engagement photos because I already trusted that she would deliver the same results for our wedding.

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!

Every detail large and small. Every feeling from only the right angles. From the behind-the-scenes preparations to the spotlighted celebrations. Un-scripted, un-posed and nothing like traditional wedding photography.

It's hard to put into words how incredible Gruber Photographers are! From our first meeting, sending us little packages leading up to our wedding, to staying in contact after our wedding, they amazing to work with. The photos speak for themselves, they are simply stunning and timeless - I know I will love looking at them for years to come! They helped us think about every detail leading up to the wedding and made great suggestions when needed. Were flexible with their packages - we had her come to our rehearsal dinner instead of doing an engagement session. On the day of our wedding, they made us feel comfortable and that we could really be ourselves. I consider myself incredibly lucky to have worked with you guys!

In an age of algorithms, hashtags, and followers photography has taught Alex the true importance of the human connection. To him, photography is more than composing a beautiful shot or finding the best light. It’s about finding moments that shares with the viewer a special insight into the couples, the friends, that he has the privilege to document. He strives to capture feelings and emotions that take people back to special moments worth remembering for generations to come.

Awarded Best of Zola
Alex and his team were phenomenal. My wife and I just got back from visiting family for the holidays and they are still talking about how much they loved Alex and his team. Alex, Vlad and the team drove to upstate NY to capture our day! Since my wife and I live in NC, we had not met Alex before our wedding day but that was not an issue at all because he arrived early to learn who was in our family and bridal party. This allowed him to get all of our must-have pictures. Even though our day has passed, Alex continues to be extremely responsive. On Christmas, we were having difficulty accessing our video to show to family so we email Alex, not expecting a response...it was Christmas day. Within 5 minutes Alex responded with our video links so that we could share with family. Many of our friends have gotten engaged in the last several weeks and we are recommending Alex to all of them.

My studio represents six award winning principal photographers each with an amazing editorial and photojournalistic eye. They've been shooting with me from 6 to 14 years and are exceptional experts in their fields. That's why I choose them, trained them and that's why they stick with the studio.

We cannot recommend Kang and Brian Dorsey Studios enough! Kang did an engagement photo shoot for us as well as our wedding photos and was so kind and patient throughout the entire process. He made us feel very comfortable being ourselves in front of the camera. We told Kang that we wanted to just have moments captured rather than manufactured and he did a beautiful job getting amazing shots without us feeling like we were having to do forced poses the entire time. On top of that, the quality of the photos was absolutely incredible. Kang was punctual, professional, and truly went the extra mile to make sure we got all of the shots that were important to us on such a special day. Thanks to Kang and the entire Brian Dorsey Studio teams we have a wide array of timeless, beautiful photos to choose from.

Laura is wonderful to work with! Laura's style of photography is what had originally drawn us to her; her ability to capture candid moments and how she always seems to get the perfect lighting! The photos she took completely captured the overall warm and loving vibe of our wedding. She must be some sort of magician... or just the best possible wedding photographer... Booking her was easy. She was easy to get in touch with and was always prompt to respond. I'm glad we booked her early to lock in our date. She is a very popular photographer and she books up fast! We met Laura before our wedding to go over the details of the venue and timeline of the night. She is a pro so she can make any venue, even the warehouse we booked, look bright and not dark and dingy. Day of, Laura came happy and ready to shoot. Our portraits with parents and the bridal party were not only beautiful, taken in a field, but also super fun! Laura knows how to make you feel good about yourself when she's shooting you! She was also making jokes which helped make us all comfortable. The ceremony and reception pictures were just breathtaking! She captured how funny our officiant was, our special "I do" moment and of course our first kiss as husband and wife! During our reception, we had circus performers lead the guests in hula hooping and juggling... Laura was able to get some amazing action shots on the fly! Overall, Laura is the absolute best. She was the perfect photographer for our special day and I cannot imagine having someone else in her place! She is so talented, sweet, punctual and professional; all things you want and need in a photographer! We love her and will be hiring her in the future for family portraits!

Amy Milstein Photography

New York, NY
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,500

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! :-)

"I work with a lot of vendors in the course of a wedding season and the ones that stand out are those who bring a positive energy and camaraderie to their work. Amy Milstein is exactly that type of person. Not only is she a great photographer, but she's fun to work with and I've noticed that the couples feel very calm and comfortable with her, which is so important! I'd definitely recommend her to any couple looking for a great documentary style photographer. "

We couldn't even begin to imagine using another photographer. I'm not sure where to start! ImageHaus is nothing short of extraordinary. I say this for many reasons...he is super friendly, enthusiastic, and genuine and his work is simply ART. He cares about your ideas and vision and can bridge your vision with his style. But at the end of the day, you really don't need to do anything other than show up, have fun, listen to his direction and trust his vision.

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've been photographing weddings since 2010 and it's something that I feel incredibly fortunate to do. It really is remarkable to be able to combine my love for photography and storytelling in capturing the stories of so many wonderful couples in a genuine and authentic manner over the past 10 years. I currently reside in Brooklyn, New York with my wife, our daughter and our two cats. When I'm not photographing weddings you can find me exploring the streets of New York City with my camera, enjoying a good cup of coffee, visiting art galleries, and spending time outdoors.

Could not recommend James MORE to photograph your wedding. Not only is he an incredibly skilled photographer, he is kind and friendly and fantastic to work with! We have already recommended him to family and friends getting married in the coming years. I can’t wait to see the full album of our photos, because so far they are the most beautiful wedding photos I’ve ever seen. You won’t regret working with James!

New York, NY
  • Photojournalistic style

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.

  • Fine art style

I have been a photographer for 21 years - it all started when my Mom gifted me my first camera to take on a trip. I shot 30 rolls of film, in a week, all in black & white. A decade later, I sat down to really think about what I wanted from life. At the time, I was playing professional soccer in Denmark, and knew that that experience had an expiration date. I wrote down what I love most - I LOVE people, travel, & photography. I hung up my cleats that very year and went full steam ahead into the most rewarding career I could have ever chosen. Photographing couples & their loved ones on the happiest day of their lives.

Leila was amazing to work with! She produced gorgeous photos, which we got back 2.5 weeks after our wedding. She also made us feel extremely comfortable on our wedding day!! Highly Recommend!!
