Hi friend! I'm Becca. Ever since I was little, I wanted to listen to others stories and share them with others. As a result of a college photography class that I loved and my dad's love of nature photography, I was gifted a camera after graduation, and I never stopped! I started taking photos at a performing arts center and became mesmerized with capturing joy. I have been in the wedding industry since I was fourteen and have been taking photos professionally since 2019.

“When you book with Becca you get the sweetest, most kind-hearted, and dedicated person. She listened to our thoughts and ideas to create the most beautiful gallery. I trusted Becca 1000% with making sure that our photos even in the rain came out so beautiful! She makes you feel seen, confident, and relaxed to capture all the most amazing moments.

Back in 2000, we (My Father and I) started creating Professional Wedding Photography that was exceptionally profound, beautiful and meaningful. Today we continue that tradition, but have expanded our expertise and added an Elite team of life-long Professional Friends to bring you the very best Photographic and Cinematic Video Wedding creation and documentation in the North East. Together our merry band of crusading wedding creators will do what no one else can.

“Thomas and his team were wonderful for our wedding in December! Right from the start he was super helpful to give us all the information and didn't sugar coat anything. I will say I was a little suspicious at first when he said "I can do any style you want" I know some photographers only stick to certain styles. And with our wedding being in Sturbridge MA I was expecting a travel fee. But he wanted us to make sure that he was a professional, he keeps things fair all across the board. Thomas is also super quick when it comes to messaging! If I had any questions he would respond rather quickly. He surpassed my expectations with how accommodating him and his team were when working with us, even changing our minds about packages and addon's only a couple weeks out. On the actually day of the wedding, Thomas and his team were truly our hype men! Even when I was getting ready with my bridesmaids he was in on all of our jokes and making us laugh. While I was getting ready, I heard that the groomsmen and my husband were having the best time getting all the group photos of them. I can not recommend this team enough!”

Photographing weddings and elopements is a privilege that I do not take lightly. I treat each moment with as much care as if it were my own! While I am happy to take on weddings of any size, I specialize in intimate weddings or engagement sessions where I can embrace a documentary, candid approach. My favorite moments to capture are those quiet, unplanned interactions. I adore the small details. The moments that sometimes get overlooked but often times help tell the story of your wedding day the most. I thrive with couples who aren’t afraid to be silly and embrace the moments as they come as opposed to forcing it.

“Sydney was a dream to work with for our wedding! She is so kind and easy-going, she instantly eased all of my wedding day anxieties. She truly does it all and was essential in making our day run smoothly. From fixing my veil, to bustling my dress, and wrangling up our wedding party all while getting fantastic photos. She really is so talented at what she does by capturing all of the in-between, authentic moments that you want to remember forever. Our photos turned out better than I could have ever imagined and are so timeless, we will cherish them for the rest of our lives. We couldn’t recommend her enough not only because of her beautiful work but for the person that she is!!!”

“We worked with Kristen & Sheridan for our wedding earlier this year and are so lucky to have found them! TL;DR: From planning and day-of execution to the delivery of our wedding gallery, Kristen & Sheridan were incredible to work with. Not only were they the perfect presence for our wedding day, they captured it in such an authentic way with a stunning final product. We connected with Kristen & Sheridan the moment we met them which was important to us considering the amount of time you spend around your photographers. We did an engagement shoot prior and we not only received an incredible batch of photos, but we were able to establish a rapport that made the flow of our wedding day feel that much easier. When we had to tweak our photo schedule or change locations, they were the perfect people to help us pivot and keep things on track. And when it was time for the ceremony & reception, their discrete coverage led to incredible results that captured our day in such an incredible way. The wedding gallery they created was nothing short of amazing and we were able to see moments of friends & family we would have never seen day-of. And truly, everyone who interacted with them LOVED them. We had opted not to have a videographer and knew our photographs were going to be our primary memory of the day, and we have no notes! Kristen & Sheridan captured the perfect story of our wedding and we would recommend them to anyone!”

I am known for my genuine, immersive, classic images and my easy-going, joyful nature from booking to gallery completion.

“We truly cannot recommend Maisie Snyder enough. From the very beginning, communication was seamless and reassuring, and on our wedding day she went far beyond what we ever expected from a photographer. She brought such a calming, supportive presence that instantly put us at ease, kept everything running smoothly, and somehow managed to capture every meaningful moment without ever feeling intrusive. At one point, she even helped me change into my second dress and showed such genuine care and kindness toward my grandmother moments that went far beyond her role and meant so much to us. The photos themselves are absolutely stunning timeless, emotional, and full of life. Every image tells a story and brings us right back to how the day felt. It’s clear that this isn’t just a job for her; she truly cares about her couples and their experience. If you are looking for someone who is not only incredibly talented but also kind, attentive, and deeply invested in your day, look no further. Hiring Maisie Snyder was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding, and we will treasure these photos forever.”

“We cannot say enough wonderful things about Paul from Paul Saunders Photography! From the very first moment he arrived on our wedding day, he wasn’t just our photographer—he was a calming presence, a guiding hand, and an absolute joy to be around. I was a bundle of nerves while getting ready, but the second Paul walked in, everything changed. He didn’t just take photos—he reassured me, made me laugh, and instantly put me at ease. His experience shines through in every way. He knows exactly how to capture genuine, in-the-moment magic while making everyone feel comfortable and natural in front of the camera. What amazed us even more was how prepared and thoughtful he was. We had a quick conversation before the wedding, and he not only remembered every detail I mentioned, but also memorized all of our close family and wedding party’s names—down to fun nicknames! That level of attention and personalization made the entire experience feel effortless. His humor and warmth helped us relax, and instead of stressing over photos, we just got to be in the moment and truly enjoy our day. My husband raved about how much fun Paul made the groomsmen’s photos, effortlessly organizing everyone while keeping things light and easygoing. He has a gift for reading the energy of a room and bringing out the best in everyone, whether it’s guiding a group shot or capturing those intimate, fleeting moments that might otherwise go unnoticed. When we received our photos, we were absolutely blown away. They are beyond stunning—every glance, every laugh, every little emotion of the day perfectly preserved. It felt like reliving the best day of our lives all over again. I cannot stop looking at them! Paul is not only an exceptional photographer but also a kind, personable, and incredibly talented artist. Hiring him was one of the best decisions we made, and we are forever grateful for his work. If I could give him more than five stars, I absolutely would! Our families loved him too, and we heard so many compliments from our guests about how great he was to work with.

Being married for over 25 years, we bring an understanding of real love and partnership into every wedding we document. We believe the best wedding photos don't come from perfect posing-they come from being fully present. Because the truth is, your wedding day isn't a photoshoot. It's a blur of emotion, energy, nerves, laughter, and moments you didn't even see happening. Our job is to catch all of it. Not by staging it. Not by interrupting it. But by paying attention in a way most people don't.

“My husband and I got married at Red Maple Vineyard in May 2025 and Rebecca photographed our special day. We also did an engagement shoot prior that was included in the cost of our package. We are both very camera shy and this is the first time we have ever taken professional photos. Rebecca kept our photos, lighthearted, helped to pose us, and made everything feel very natural and comfortable. I have never felt more confident than in her photos. She knew exactly how to capture the emotions of the day and the amazing hudson valley scenery at Red Maple even though it poured. Rebecca is genuine and truly cares about her clients. She even stayed late while I changed into my second dress to get some extras of us. She and her husband truly go above and beyond for their clients and have a passion and talent for photography and videography. Couldn’t recommend them more and will be working with them in the future!”

Photojournalistic style
Starts at $4,200
Serves Albany, NY

As your photographer, my passion is to capture all the love, excitement and laughter that will be the story of you and your day. My goal is to do this without having to be in the middle of everything. Behind the camera you will find a friendly and outgoing personality with the ability to make everyone, including you, comfortable in front of the camera. I like to describe my style as artistic photojournalism, capturing moments when they are most real and most times without you even noticing I am there.
