Working with Ali for our City Hall wedding was fantastic. She was very responsive as we planned our day, arrived right on time to City Hall, and spent a couple of hours photographing us after our ceremony. Ali knew a lot of solid spots for photos in the area, leaving us with great wedding photos. We felt really comfortable and had a lot of fun throughout the day. As promised, she delivered our photos within a little over a week. Highly recommend!!!!!

I'm a traveling elopement and wedding photographer based out of Louisville, Colorado. I photograph with my whole heart, meaning that, yeah, I'll probably shed a tear or two at your wedding. Capturing the real love of my couples is what's most important to me. I love working with couples to create images that represent their authentic and raw adoration for one another. Outside of your big day, I love tagging along with both of you on a date to the white mountains or even just drinking hot coffee and laughing on cold winter days. I am passionate about capturing a real & unrestrained version of my clients.

Anna was continuously so thoughtful in communication as well as the day of our wedding (I'm talking kicking goose poop out of the way whilst wearing the whitest sneakers so I didn't get my dress dirty). She was so patient and accepting with our crazy families and totally leaned right into the chaotic energy. Im so grateful for the shots she got of our guests in addition to intricate pictures of our wedding party. Love love love her work (and honestly scheming any reason to use her again!)

I met Marybeth during a wedding in Westhampton, she took photos of our wedding cake that we did for the couple. I have to say, I loved the cake I did, but when I saw the photos Marybeth took my jaws dropped. 3 It was pleasure to work with her and I hope we can work again on future weddings.

Dan was an absolute gentleman to work with from inquiry to day of! He was quick to respond to any emails I sent and was super flexible with zoom calls or texting if need be! On the day of our wedding he was cool, calm, collected and respectful of all of my friends and family even when time was tight and we were all strung out with stress! He arrived at the venue long before even we, the bride and groom, did to familiarize himself with the location, he was excited about the venue and passionate about capturing our unique vision for the day. He dressed to impress and blended right in with our cocktail attire request of our guests. He worked well with our other vendors whom he hadn’t worked with in the past, and was willing to work with ideas any of us had! He also offered ideas and visions for us to work from and had great suggestions for getting to know what is really important to you and your spouse on your special day! Our sneak peak images came at the perfect time just a day or two after the event and were totally beautiful! We highly recommend Dan/ Quiet Glimpse to anyone looking for a friendly and detail focused photographer who will make sure even the shyest of bridal party members feels included and captured in the memories! Thank you so much Dan, we hope to have some other event in the future that allows us to work with you again!

There are not enough stars in the world to give Maya and their assistant Anne!! My wife and I hired them for our wedding, and they absolutely outdid themself. They were professional, timely, and incredibly fun to be around!! We even had a little mixup with family photos, and they worked through it with ease and grace. They never stressed anyone out either, which is HUGE for an event as big as a wedding. I honestly would have loved having them there as invited guests, photography aside! I’d be remiss to not mention the final photos—we have received a handful of edited photos to share with family, and they are GORGEOUS. Everybody we’ve shown them to has commented on how beautifully they turned out, and oh my god they really did!! Maya is absolutely worth every penny you pay for them and more. I cannot recommend them enough for your photography needs!!!

Sydney K Andrew Photography

Saratoga Springs, NY
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Amherst, NY for additional fees

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
My now husband and I aren’t very comfortable in front of the camera, but Sydney made it so easy for us to open up and enjoy the moments. Both our engagement pictures and our wedding pictures came out amazing. She went above and beyond, from capturing so many special moments, to making sure I got some of the appetizers. I’m so glad we chose her to be our photographer.

I’m blessed to be turning what started as a small hobby into an incredible journey where I get to capture such intimate moments in couple's lives. I graduated from UConn with a degree in psychology and journalism; both those tracks have only helped me in capturing human emotion through a photojournalist lens. An ambivert, my camera allows me to work where I know I work best, behind-the-scenes, front row at some of the most profound moments in people's lives. In a pinch though, I'll be there carrying the train, making sure you don't get your shoes dirty and helping to support you where I can throughout your wedding day!

Alissa was phenomenal. From day one she helped guide us through the entire process. When we had questions, she was very quick to reply. As our wedding coordinator, we couldn’t be happier! She was one of the first people there to help set up and never had to ask what to do. She was on top of everything! She took full control. From the table decorations to hanging flowers and decor in the freezing cold with the wind blowing, to helping break everything down, it was WAY more than we could have asked for. We were blown away with how much help she provided. We can’t say enough good things about Alissa because the list is just too long. When we renew our vows in 5 years, she will definitely be receiving another phone call!

Your wedding is one of the most important days of your life, and I am so happy that you are considering including us to be a part of it. I commit to a limited number of Weddings per year to ensure that your day remains a priority. Photography is all about connection and your photographer will be one of the biggest and longest-lasting connections you’ll share with any of your wedding vendors. I strive to create beautiful portraits, but also a lasting relationship with my couples. When you book with us, you are not just a client, you become part of the JYP family! I am honored to have the opportunity to laugh…to cry…to share your love story.

Awarded Best of Zola
The first part of wedding planning for us was finding the photographer because it was the most important to me (other than the man I was marrying). I was prepared to search high and low to find the perfect photographer, but Jessica found us! After attending a wedding expo she reached out and offered her services. We met for coffee and discussed our hopes and dreams for our upcoming wedding. There was an instant connection! I told Jessica wedding photos were at the top of my priority list, because they’re what lasts forever. I can look back on those photos and remember the excitement, happiness, and pure joy of marrying the man of my dreams. I told her I was looking for someone to capture the little moments along with the big. Jessica promised us everything we asked for and, man oh man, she delivered!!! I cannot speak highly enough of her. Every part of the process was made simple because of her organization and talent. Every communication we had was prompt, thoughtful, and respectful. She listened to our wishes, offered her expertise, and created unbelievable results!! Jessica and her assistant (Crystal) were fun to be around and made our sessions with them fly by. They made sure every detail was picture-perfect… even during our freezing cold outdoor engagement session. If anyone asks me for a photographer, Jessica is the name I give, every single time. She signed on to do our wedding, but we are now her clients for life because no one will compare to the incredible job she does. Let me squash any doubts you have and help you with the best decision you’ll make when it comes to finding a photographer… just hire Jessica Yahn!! We are forever grateful to have crossed paths with her!!

I'm Cass, an Improviser Photographer from the Adirondack Mountains of Northern New York. Because this is my full-time career I have the time to dedicate to my clients. Rather than only taking pictures of you, I want to get to know you on a personal level. I like to establish a connection based on trust and honesty when taking photos. I am a photographer without cheesy trends, capturing the things that actually matter. REAL LIFE. What you see is what you get; so no over editing or too much posing. I dedicate my work to capturing real emotions in a fun and non-intrusive atmosphere.

I had the amazing opportunity to work alongside Cass as a videographer at a backyard wedding on Lyon Mountain back in August. She was incredibly chill, so kind, and was extremely respectful of what I was trying to capture from the day too. Unprecedented to any photographer I have worked with in the past, she allowed me exclusive time with the bride and groom to get more of the movement shots I was looking for and I was able to get! Never have I ever had a photographer give me the opportunity to work one on one with the couple. Hire her for your wedding, you'll get STUNNING photos and she's a blast to work with!

Sarah is the absolute sweetest and a PHENOMENAL photographer. She captured our engagement and wedding photos and we couldn’t have been happier with the results. I shared with her my Pinterest board for Inspo and she not only used them as reference but captured them in her own way which was 100x better. Genuinely can’t say enough good things. Her eye for detail and way of capturing the big and small moments is just what we wanted for our wedding day. Her edits were also perfect they were not overly touched up and still very natural which is exactly what we wanted! Can’t say enough good things about Sarah as a person and as a photographer!

You'll probably find me at your local thrift shop with my iced coffee in the dead of winter listening to gospel or rnb music in my ear while shopping for records and broken cameras. When i find spare time i play apex legends or attend creative events. my guilty pleasure is reality tv and crime documentaries.

Awarded Best of Zola
Where do I begin? Justina was simply amazing! Her background in fashion photography & the breathtaking examples of her work on her website were what initially caught my eye, but then her down to earth personality was what sealed the deal — we hit it off from the very first phone call we had. She is extremely organized yet flexible, patient (so SO patient), considerate, very accommodating and quite talented. She went above and beyond anything I could have imagined. At times, it felt like she was even helping me plan the wedding with her advice & experience, ha! During the wedding, it honestly felt like she was one of my wedding guests! Then.. I saw the final product and I simply couldn’t have been happier. Once I (finally) reviewed all of the photos (I made Justina wait way too long for my feedback & she didn’t mind at all!), I asked for some edits (she curates a set of black & white photos along with color photos, so I just wanted the reverse on a few {well, way more than just a few} of them), and she didn’t mind at all. In fact, she even made more edits as she was going through the changes I requested. So.. to recap my gushing review.. #1 highly recommend getting married #2 highly recommend hiring Justina. 10/10

I loved the way her photos looked. A little more darker and moody than any other typical wedding photographer. I am still in love with everything she has done for me. From my engagement photos to my daughter’s 1st birthday pictures. Kristi becomes more than a photographer. She becomes a friend who genuinely cares about you and your family, whether you talk to her practically every week or every few months.

I was that kid enchanted by Disney Princess movies and the idea of "true love". My true love revealed itself through photography. At 8, I grabbed my dad's camera and was hooked, thrilled to show people my world. I started with zoo animals, friends, and siblings, eager to freeze moments in time. As I grew, I learned from local photographers and knew by 17 that photography was my calling. Since then, I’ve captured love in all its forms: couples, new parents, best friends, and the joy of seeing your favorite band live. The world is full of magical firsts, and I'm honored to capture these moments forever.

Kelsey Sheehan Photography was founded in 2019. I made the jump into being a professional photographer to follow my heart and work in a career path that I love! When I am not working you can find me baking with country or 90s/00s R&B blasting, sitting by the fire with my neighbors, doing yoga, kickboxing, jiu jitsu, or hiking with my family. Okay, and maybe binge watching Schitt's Creek, Gilmore Girls, or Grey's Anatomy for the hundredth time.

Kelsey was wonderful to work with for our engagement shoot! Our engagement session was a bit out of the norm, but Kelsey rolled with it with open arms and tried something new with us. We weren’t completely sure how the process would go, but Kelsey guided us through different shots and was also open to different ideas that we had. The photos are absolutely to die for!! She captured us perfectly and these are my favorite photos of us. She was incredibly responsive throughout the process and it was a fantastic experience!

Like with anything I do, I’ve put much heart, work and energy into photography. Yet, the most rewarding part are still the emotions, and happy messages I get from my clients. Nothing charges and empowers me more. On your wedding day, you shouldn't have to worry, cause I am there to help you in every way possible. I make sure your dress is all nice and fluffed in every picture, that there is nothing in your teeth, I catch every fly away and I am there to be your hype girl.

I can't gush over Grace enough. After postponing our wedding twice due to Covid, we abandoned our original plans of having a huge wedding at home in Kentucky and decided to have a small ceremony at the beach in Florida. After finding Grace through hashtags on Instagram, we DMed a bit and setup a call. After talking on the phone, I was sold! Grace was my go to girl for all things Florida. She had the BEST recommendations for other vendors and was ALWAYS just a text away if I had any questions or simply needed someone to share wedding plans with. Even though we didn't actually meet in person until the day of the ceremony, it felt as if we had been lifelong friends. She PERFECTLY captured our ceremony and I can't wait to plan another shoot with her when we visit again!!

Hey there- I'm Joanna, but feel free to call me Jo! My world has always been filled with photography- through all the years and different cameras, it's always been my biggest passion and love. I am a travel enthusiast and I will always be down to hike up a mountain or explore a new city. My favorite meals are anything that include coffee or sushi and I am a firm believer that there is no such thing as "too much chocolate." Most importantly, I am a lover of all love and will never get tired of documenting it.

Joanna photographed our September 2023 wedding at West Point in NY, and we would recommend her wholeheartedly.
 We first contacted Joanna after seeing her work on Instagram and Zola, and we really connected to the candidness and quality of her photography. We weren’t fans of traditional, super-posed and highly edited wedding photography. We were looking for a wedding photographer with a relaxed style that’s both modern and timeless. Joanna was all of the above and her photography perfectly highlights real love and connection between two people. Our wedding package with Joanna included an engagement shoot which was the perfect way to get to know her better and explain in person what we wanted for both our engagement and wedding photos. As people who aren’t generally comfortable in front of a camera, Joanna made us feel so comfortable while shooting and the photos came out better than we could have expected.
 On the wedding day, Joanna flew in to shoot our wedding, which wasn’t originally anticipated when we booked, but we truly appreciated how she made it work for our wedding. She was a dream to work, traveling to multiple locations throughout the day to shoot and capturing every photo we asked for. Going with Joanna over a team of photographers was one of the best decisions we made. It kept our wedding more intimate and relaxed for us and our guests without sacrificing quality or the range of photos. Overall, Joanna was flexible, organized, and collaborative. She quickly responded to all of our questions and kept in communication with us throughout the entire process. Joanna is also just a very kind and friendly person to work with, which was very important to us. We truly love our wedding day photos. Thank you Joanna!

So many times when I present a collection of images to a couple they'll find themselves overwhelmed with emotion. I've thought a lot about this and believe it's because so much happens so fast on a wedding day that your mind can only process a certain amount in the moment. When you see those authentic images that tell your story all of the information that your mind stored during your wedding is released. It's amazing how powerful images are. I am grateful to be able to give my couples photos that they'll treasure for life.

Tiny House Photo is a LGBTQ+ women owned documenting love stories with intention. Stephanie, the photographer behind Tiny House Photo, is located in Fort Lauderdale, Florida but travels often around the country to photograph couples, elopements and weddings.

Awarded Best of Zola
I've referred Tiny House Photo for multiple weddings including my little sister’s and now my own. My now husband hired Tiny House Photo to photograph our proposal and engagement session in Nashville, Stephanie then made the pilgrimage to Tallahassee for a 2nd engagement session when Covid threw itself into the mix, and Tiny House Photo was there when we finally had our big day in South Florida. It’s been magic every single time. I'll never be able to adequately express how deeply I love every single image that Tiny House Photo has taken. Stephanie expertly captures both our love and every last moment shared together. Tiny House Photo will be there for all of my life’s major moments and will continue to be who I recommend to anyone and everyone I know!

Hey! Hello! What's happening? I'm Erika, owner and lead photographer of It Clicks Photo. I love learning about your love story, how you knew your significant other was the one, and any embarrassing stories you two have endured over time. I'm sure I have a few I feel the need to tell you about, too! I'm a very accepting, down to earth lady who values and appreciates your authentic- straight to the core- self. Capturing your wedding day fills me with life, and makes me feel all butterfly-ish and bubbly inside. Can't wait to meet you both! (PS- I love to travel! There isn't a place I won't go- honestly.)

Erika has been my favorite photographer to work with since we met a few years ago. I just love her work! As a DJ it is important to be able to work well with vendors. Especially the ones capturing the big day. It has always been very easy for me to work with Erika and her team so I recommend her every chance I get. I have noticed over the years that she is naturally a creative fun and easy going person which in my opinion is always a great quality for a wedding professional. I look forward to working with Ericka and the whole itclicks team for years to come.

I have been photographing couples for nearly 10 years and have loved every minute of it. I have enjoyed following them through engagement, wedding, maternity and now family sessions. I have even become life long friends with some of them. I am a mother of 3 and have always loved art, and once I picked up my camera and found a way to tell others love stories, I knew I found what I was supposed to do.

We hired Michelle for our wedding and wow... where do I start?? Michelle and her assistant were INCREDIBLE! They were super friendly, thoughtful, funny, helpful and just made us feel incredible comfortable! My husband and I are shy people who do not like to be the center of attention and do not like to get our pictures taken, so we were both anxious about it. As soon as they started, we ended up actually having so much fun, laughing and having a great time getting our pictures taken! I have seen a few sneak peeks and am already in tears at how beautifully they turned out. I CANNOT wait to see how the others turned out! We will 100% be working with her again in the future! Thank you Michelle for the wonderful memories! Definitely do not hesitate and hire Valley Images Photography for your next event, you will not regret it!

Hi friend! Grace here. I’m from a small town in south-central PA, where I was raised on the great outdoors, drive-in movies, & board games. My husband is my best friend & we have an adorable toddler keeping us on our toes! We're all about Jesus, our people, traveling, coffee shops & our two Aussies. I’m a big advocate of seeing new places, deep talks under the stars & being near the mountains any chance I can get. I believe that marriage begins with a promise & a lifetime of memories follow after that. My clients are my friends & I feel privileged to begin this adventure with you!

Booking Grace was the best thing we did for our September 30th wedding (besides getting married of course). We connected instantly... and that is speaking on her bubbly, comforting, and caring personality. My husband and I have never been in front of a lens prior to engagement photos & our wedding, and after seeing our photos you would think we were SUPER MODELS (not kidding). Her work is absolutely breath taking, 99% of my wedding photos look like they came straight out of a magazine... the other 1% she caught some of the BEST, hysterical, memories that came from lots of alcohol, pizza, and the dance floor which we are very grateful for. I rate her and the team she brought 20/10 and will be booking her again, and again, and again for all major life events we want pictured forever. BOOK HER NOW!

I then moved to the US and have resided in Boston ever since. I enjoy the gorgeous seasons that New England offers an explorer like myself. My career started out in Graphic Design but at some point, photography found a place in my heart and soul, and I have been wandering the globe with my camera always in hand. Over the past decade I have been photographing weddings and events all over the country.

We were so lucky to have chosen to work with Pedro and Bindi for our wedding day! He was a true professional from start to finish - in the planning leading up to the wedding, Pedro was organized and prompt with communications. All of our details were loaded in his portal and it was easy to track and made us feel confident and comfortable we would have the experience & photos we wanted to capture the moment!

You can also find me decorating our home or researching our next spontaneous adventure.

We have been using Dana for about 2 years now, and she has photographed myself and family from fall portraits to a surprise vow renewals and continuously leaves us speechless with every ‘unveiling’. Dana is easy to work with. Her sessions are effortless and honestly most times we all can’t stop laughing. Her eye for detail is spot on and her creativity in the moment is so much fun to be apart of. I highly recommend using Dana for your photography use because you will not be disappointed!

The Leighton Co

5.0

Portland, ME
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Amherst, NY for additional fees

The Leighton Co. is a husband and wife photography and filmmaking team documenting stories of love and life through intentional, modern, and genuine imagery. We believe that when the day isn't solely focused around the photos and video, then THAT is when you get the best footage.

I highly recommend Becca and Scott. I sent in an inquiry form, and soon after Becca scheduled a call for us to discuss what we envisioned for our wedding day and to tell us about their different packages. We were not certain that we wanted a videographer, but Becca and Scott helped to guide us to make the best choice for us. Leading up to our wedding day, Becca was great about communicating with us. And best of all she created a day of timeline for us! I was so stressed about the timing of the day, but once I saw her suggested timeline, I knew it would work out great. On the day of our wedding, both Becca and Scott were awesome. They were supportive and kind, making sure that we were comfortable and able to be where we wanted to. We never felt awkward or like we were “forcing it” for the cameras. Post wedding, Becca and Scott were again great about communicating with us about when they would deliver our finalized photos and video. Both our engagement and wedding photos/ videos are beautiful. The Leighton Co has a timeless style that we love, and they do a great job of capturing you and your day as it is. It is very obvious how much hard work they put in, and how dedicated they are to the couples they work with. I know that we will look back at our pictures and videos for many years and instantly remember how loved we felt that day.
