Tom was an amazing photographer! From the first day that we had a Zoom conference with him, we knew he would be a good fit for us. Communication was clear throughout the entire process (from our engagement photos to our wedding day photos) and he was always friendly and personable. He showed up on time for our wedding and worked well with everyone in our wedding party as well as our family members. He knew how to make us laugh and was more than a welcome guest on our special day.

  • Serves Ashland, NY

Capturing love in every color of the rainbow, Kristen Renee Photography tells authentic wedding stories through a relaxed, documentary style. Based in Albany, New York and traveling wherever love leads, Kristen and her team focus on genuine moments rather than stiff poses. From intimate elopements to vibrant celebrations, every wedding is approached with curiosity, empathy, and a deep respect for each couple’s unique story. The goal is simple: photographs that feel real, timeless, and unmistakably you.

Choosing a wedding photographer was one of the harder parts of planning for us — we weren’t really sure what to look for and didn’t know much about photography. But from the very first phone call with Kristen, it was instantly clear that she was the one. She’s incredibly organized, knows weddings inside and out, and yet somehow keeps everything feeling laid-back and easy. She made us feel relaxed and taken care of through every step. Our engagement shoot was effortless, fun, and genuinely one of our favorite memories. Kristen has this amazing way of making you feel like you’ve known her for years — warm, calm, and completely present. On our wedding day, Kristen and Sheridan worked together seamlessly. They made everyone feel comfortable, blended right in with our families and wedding party, and brought such positive energy. Kristen was familiar with our venue and knew exactly where to go for the best light and most beautiful backdrops — including places we had no idea even existed, like the rooftop and an incredible hidden attic. She coordinated with the venue team like a total pro and even helped me put in my veil! Shooting our Couple’s portraits with them was one of the most unexpectedly special parts of the day. Kristen and Sheridan made us feel like actual models while keeping it authentic and fun. There was something so meaningful about being photographed by a married couple who clearly love and support each other — it made the whole experience even more emotional and memorable. The photos? Breathtaking. Every single moment — from the big ones to the quiet in-betweens — was captured beautifully. We truly don’t know how they do it. Kristen and Sheridan will always hold a special place in our hearts, and we can’t recommend them highly enough. Do yourself a favor and book them — it’ll be one of the best decisions you make!

Awarded Best of Zola
From our first conversation with Debi at Rambling Creative, we knew we had found the right photographer for our wedding. She communicated with us every step of the way, always kind and thorough in her responses, which made planning feel easy and stress-free. On the day of our wedding, Debi brought props and creative ideas that elevated our photos in ways we didn't even expect. Her eye for detail really showed in every shot, and she had this natural ability to capture the moments that mattered most to us. Beyond just taking pictures, she was a true partner who helped us bring our vision to life with her professionalism and creativity. We couldn't have asked for a better experience working with her!

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot GUSH enough about Becca. She was hands down the MVP of our wedding day. In the midst of wedding planning busyness, Becca led a thorough meeting with us (the couple) going over the day-of schedule, and covering an exhaustive comprehensive list of all possible photos, helping us prioritize the ones we needed and letting go of those that may have ended up stressing us out to try to take! She made sure to be sensitive to all our hopes for photos, family dynamics, and more. I (the bride) was sick on the wedding day and had to make some adjustments to the day-of schedule, and Becca not only adjusted with such grace and flexibility, but also offered great game-time ideas to make sure we got all the photos we wanted with even less time! During the wedding, Becca stayed even longer than scheduled, was so patient but commanding with getting family photos organized, and stayed in the background throughout the day even though she was right by my (the bride!) side getting the best candid photos. That way, I was able to feel supported AND even more relaxed, she was so nimble, positive, and masterful. As I’ve said since the beginning of working with her, she is simply the BEST.

  • Serves Ashland, NY

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
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!!!

Jaci Berkopec Photography

  • Starts at $4,200
  • Serves Ashland, NY

Hi, I'm Jaci Berkopec! A self portrait of me would include a frozen pizza, caesar salad bag, and a bottle of white wine. But more importantly I am a wedding, lifestyle and adventure elopement photographer based out of NYC. Weddings and elopements are one of my passions because witnessing love and marriage is one of the most beautiful things we can witness. When shooting with me, expect to have tons of fun and lots of laughs because I like to be weird! Life is too short to be normal! I photograph all types of love.

I’m SO glad that we hired Jaci to be our photographer for our wedding. I felt that she was 100% aligned with what I wanted for the photography: minimal posing/forced moments and lots of candids of all the love and fun times. We’ve only received our preview photos so far (we just got married a couple weeks ago) but I can already tell she killed it. I’m already so happy with what we have and have been looking at them nonstop! On the day Jaci was a delight to work with and so much fun. Her and her assistant were so friendly and nice, really putting me at ease while I was freaking out. I am NOT comfortable in front of a camera but somehow in the pictures I look totally natural. They were also very much on the dance floor during the reception getting in the mix and getting those incredible pictures of people partying and celebrating that we hoped for. I remember a couple times spotting them out of the corner of my eye and just thinking “I know these are gonna be good” and they very much are! At brunch the morning after many people were remarking about how much fun the photographers were. Just good vibes and great photos all around, I would definitely recommend working with Jaci!

Hawthorn Photography was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding! From the very first meeting, Sarah and Drew were so easy to talk to and we felt like we connected with them very quickly. They are very professional but do not make you feel pressured at all - Sarah has great ideas and really hypes you up throughout the process. Drew always found creative ways to shoot the day and Sarah was there for me every step of the way, even when I needed quick help with my dress. Sarah is so dependable and the pictures they captured showcase both of their talents and our love so well. I'd pick Hawthorn Photography for photos for every occasion and in every lifetime!

From NY to TX, then back again... I started my photography adventure 10 years ago in a small studio in upstate, New York. Since then, I've traveled across the country, taking pictures the entire time. I've captured a lifetime of memories in pictures, and now, I hope I can do the same for you! I specialize in weddings and portraiture, with experience in real estate photography as well! I love helping my customers make memories to cherish for years to come. When I'm not taking pictures, I am working as a nurse and dreaming of the days when I can put my toes in the sand with my nieces in Cape Cod.

Paul Saunders Wedding Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,650
  • Serves Ashland, NY

My smashing team photographs weddings have different coverage options that will hopefully not break the bank. Our people go throughout upstate New York, Massachusetts, and Vermont. Couples receive all edited pictures on flash drives to print and share with no restrictions; plus, online viewing is always included with any coverage for at least five years. Paul Saunders Photography is the most-reviewed photography company in New York, Massachusetts, Vermont, and all of New England.

We hired Paul Saunders Wedding Photography early on and didn't worry about communicating until closer to the wedding, but Paul stayed organized and kept us in the loop every step of the way. He sent us Chris, a photographer we immediately clicked with, who had such a relaxed energy that we barely noticed he was there while he captured incredible candids. My husband and I are both introverts and get awkward in front of cameras, but Chris kept us laughing and made the whole day feel fun instead of stressful. He even remembered our guests' names and reminded us to actually eat at our reception, plus he made our first touch and vow exchange way less uncomfortable than we expected. Chris had a gift for putting us at ease while still getting stunning shots. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and would absolutely recommend Paul Saunders to any couple looking for a photographer who truly cares.

She is incredibly professional and organized as well as such a supportive, calming presence. It ended up pouring rain on our wedding day and Maisie was unfazed! She captured beautiful moments despite the unexpected weather and change of our ceremony location to indoors. She also encouraged us to go outside during our dinner hour to take some photos during a lighter bit of rain and those are some of our absolute favorite photos from our wedding. Maisie is truly a dream to work with — you will be so delighted to look back on all the magic she captured from your special day.

Upstate New York-based wedding photographer that believes in breaking in the rules and keeping the energy laid-back and fun. That's right, we do things a little differently around here. Believe me when I say I get it, having your picture taken is scary stuff. Now throw in the nerves and stress of a wedding day and you're a freakin' hot mess. Here at CLP I'm fully invested in you and in making your wedding day kick-ass!

My husband and I got married in June of this year. One of the hardest vendors for us to choose from in the beginning was a photographer. Once we met with Cheyenne, we knew she was the perfect fit for us. She was so personable and kind from the first meeting with us. She did an amazing engagement photo shoot with us back in September of last year and gave us option to choose where ever we wanted for the location and also helped give suggestions to a location as there are so many to choose from! Cheyenne was also tremendous in figuring out our wedding day timeline. This was something my husband and I were both stressed about just making sure we had everything right, but she just asked us simple questions and did everything from there! This was so beyond helpful! She also shared it with all of vendors after she put the timeline together too. Fast forward to our wedding day - she was nothing short of amazing!! She got there early to check out the venue first and then was right on it with photos of the guys and then the girls! Cheyenne captured amazing photos from every single part of our day. I attached just a few that she captured. She was amazing getting all of our family pictures done after the ceremony too! Cheyenne also bustled my dress for me before the reception with ease and so quickly! This was beyond helpful and so kind of her as it wasn’t something she had to do, but she was so happy to do it! She was with us for almost 12 hours on our wedding day and had a smile on her face the entire time. She is so genuine and amazing at what she does. We are so thankful that we did because she’s the absolute best! One more thing that Cheyenne does that I didn’t see a lot of vendors do that was so helpful - you can do a payment plan with her and pay every few months before your wedding (depending when you book). This was really helpful as weddings are expensive of course so having this option really helped us plan and prepare better! Make sure you book Cheyenne! You will NOT regret it, I promise!

  • Serves Ashland, NY

Sawicki Studios are husband & wife wedding photographers in the Albany NY, Upstate NY Capital Region area since 2007. Our photographic style can be described as modern and unique yet timeless and classic. We use our signature stylized flare sparingly to sprinkle in a little magic into our client's images while remaining authentic to them and their day- which is a mix of candid photojournalism (documentary style) with a good helping of fine art. Our goal is to simply be visual storytellers through our artistic vision with quality and expertise.

Jen and Chris at Sawicki Studios are simply exceptional. We are not natural posers (at all) and we were a little nervous about how our photos would turn out. That worry disappeared within minutes of being around them. They have this incredible ability to make you feel completely at ease while also directing you with confidence, always knowing exactly what would look best and getting us into poses we never would have found on our own. What blew us away was how completely they documented our day. Every moment felt captured: the candid in-between moments, the big emotional beats, the details we didn't even notice in real time. When we got our gallery back faster than expected, we were genuinely speechless. The couples portraits and golden hour shots look like they belong in a magazine. The colors, lighting, and editing style matched the vibe of our wedding perfectly. Jen and Chris don't just take photos, they disappear into the background and let your day unfold naturally, while somehow capturing everything. We've already recommended them to others, and we'll keep doing so!

For seven years, I've captured love stories throughout the Capital Region, Berkshires, and Adirondacks with a photojournalistic heart. I focus on genuine emotion, real connection, and the moments you may not even realize are happening.

The options listed here are Zolas starting points, and I'm happy to create a personalized coverage plan around your wedding and budget.

We hired Rare Rose Photography for our wedding and couldn't be happier with the results. From the moment we met the team, they understood what we wanted and made us feel comfortable in front of the camera. The photos came back with this beautiful, luminous quality that made every shot pop—the lighting and clarity are just stunning. They captured all the quiet moments between us and our families that we'll treasure forever. Their pricing is fair for the caliber of work they deliver, and honestly, the sneak peeks alone had us excited to see the full gallery. We'd recommend Rare Rose to anyone looking for a photographer who delivers gorgeous, bright images without the hefty price tag.

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!

Photographer, storyteller, and believer in the power of a single moment. For nearly 30 years, I’ve been behind the lens capturing people in their truest form. I got my start as an assistant, and that foundation shaped not just my skill but my love for the craft. I launched my own business because I knew photography was more than just pictures—it’s a time capsule, a way to freeze a feeling you’ll want to return to forever. At the heart of it all, I want you to feel comfortable, confident, and genuinely seen. My job isn’t just to take your photo—it’s to help you step into a space where your story shines.

Christina Primero Photography was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding. From her on-top-of-everything communication style to her relaxing, calming energy, she made the entire photography process smooth and stress-free. The quality of her work is truly professional and high-caliber - she captured so many beautiful, high-quality images that we'll cherish forever. Christina even surprised us with an old Andy Warhol-inspired camera and fun photobooths for our events, which was such a special touch to help capture all the memories. Christina is truly the sweetest, most genuine vendor we worked with, and we're so grateful for the incredible job she did documenting our special day.
