Tati And Roman

New York, NY
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,500
  • Serves Astoria, NY

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 absolutely loved working with Tati and Roman!! We knew that we wanted to work with them immediately after our first conversation with Tati. Having two photographers was a key differentiator for us because we knew that it would allow us to capture all of the important moments from our wedding day. Tati and Roman are both so genuinely warm, kind, and very easy to work with. They were quick to respond to all of our questions leading up to our wedding and also helped us organize our day-of-timeline in a way that allowed us to get all of the photos that we wanted while also providing us with plenty of time to be present and have fun with friends and family. Tati and Roman made us and all of our friends and family feel comfortable when taking photos and provided guidance when needed to ensure that we got the perfect shots. We were blown away when we got our wedding photos and are so happy with how they turned out! Tati and Roman captured all of the beautiful and authentic moments from that night and you can feel the love that was in the room. We cannot thank Tati and Roman enough and are so happy that we were able to work with them.

I would highly recommend NJ wedding studio for wedding photographers! We couldn't be more happy with our photos and how natural they look! The two photographers, Mike and Irene, kept the photos going to make sure we got all the family photos but that we also had time to enjoy and relax before the ceremony. All of the shots were relaxed and fun. They listened to everything we wanted and captured great photos during the reception without people even noticing they were around! It was exactly what we were looking for. I personally don't like a lot of photos and Mike did an excellent job at managing the photos and making them fun through out the day, knowing you need to take a lot!

Marilyn Lamanna Photography

Astoria, NY
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,000

Hey there!! My name is Marilyn and I'm so glad you're here ♡ I am a couples + wedding photographer based in New York City, and happy to travel to wherever your day is at! I've had pink hair for the last 6 years so at this point it has become a personality trait and I'm 100% okay with it. I love the outdoors, pat every dog I can, and thrive on ben and jerry's. My ideal place to be would likely be frolicking in wildflowers in a dress that's way too long, but the longer the better. The patio of my NYC apartment with a good book is a close second favorite though, for sure.

Awarded Best of Zola
We are so grateful that we were able to have Marilyn photograph our wedding. Marylin had a way of capturing every incredible moment without us ever feeling “posed,” or “staged.” When we were capturing those intentionally designed moments, Marylin’s directions and suggestions always felt collaborative and “us-centered.” She truly knew who we were, and how to make this the best day. All of this shines through in the photos. She took the time to learn about who we are, why we chose our venue, and what we hoped this day would be. In our photos, we can truly see how beautifully Marylin did in representing all of those things. We could not recommend her more- and already have to all of our friends!

Finding the person you feel comfortable with around you and your closest loved ones on a momentous day is a huge decision. Thalia is the person you want to capture your day. Thalia guided me, my bridesmaids and my family from the moment she arrived to make sure we were on schedule, happy, comfortable, and enjoying the day. Her professionalism, calming and warm personality, and talent are exactly what I needed on my wedding day. Prior to the wedding Thalia made sure we had a shot list if everything we wanted and made sure our vision would come to life through her work. Her organization and communication made working with her stress free. My biggest regret is not having her stay the whole night. Do yourself a favor and hire your photographers and videographers for the whole length of the event! Im so so glad we found her!

If I had a superpower, it would be celebrating people. I'm my friends' biggest cheerleader and I'll be yours too during this whole process! As a documentary wedding photographer, I focus more on being in the moment and letting you be YOU, by reminding you why you fell in love in the first place.

Loretta was truly a dream to work with. She really knows how to capture love within a photo ! We met during or engagement shoot which went amazing - she made us feel so comfortable while we walked around our neighborhood taking pictures. We knew the moment we met her that we had made the right decision. As soon as I saw her on my wedding day she gave me the biggest hug and interacted with my bridal party and family like they were her own. Truly a wonderful experience. We will forever be grateful for Loretta for being able to capture our big day.

Tatiana Kiseleva Photography

Long Island City, NY
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000

Hi! I’m a New York-based photographer currently residing in Long Island City, New York. But it all began in Siberia, Russia where I was born and raised and was supposed to live happily ever after working in the financial department of an airline company. But after a few years I decided to make a big change and move to New York City, the city that conquered me with all of its happenings, grandeur and diversity.

I could not rave about Tatiana more! I didn't have a coordinator or planner, but Tatiana (with the help of my bridesmaids) kept the "getting ready" shots moving and managed to get all of the pictures of my dreams. She was so incredibly kind and by the end, she felt more like a guest who happened to have a camera. She was unobtrusive -- I never felt like I was being bombarded with wedding paparazzi -- and still didn't miss any moments. Her candid moments were probably my favorites, especially since it helped me remember a night that went so quickly! She also sent us a lovely memento box along with our flash drives of photos. I know they will be treasured along with all of her photographs that are already all over our walls 3

Sascha Reinking Photography LLC

5.0

Long Island City, NY
  • Photojournalistic style

The day you get married to your best friend isn’t about the size of the venue or the number of guests. It’s not about the flavor of the cake or flower arrangements. It’s simply about two people madly in love with each other, the intimate connection they share, and the memories they create along the way. After the food has been eaten, the presents have been opened, and the dress is hanging in your closet, your wedding day will still be with you – in your memories and in the images captured that day.

Sascha was so wonderful to work with!! I was completely overwhelmed with the amount of options we had available to us. I ended up narrowing down by the type of style I saw within photographers portfolio's. Sascha seemed to capture couples in their natural-at-ease compatibility. I reached out to Sascha and throughout our entire communication he was prompt at responding. We booked 4 months in advance and I did have an idea of the type of photo I was looking for. Sascha welcomed my location suggestions and we mapped out a game plan. The day arrived and though we were nervous to be in front of a camera, Sascha made us feel at ease and helped us feel comfortable in front of the lens. Sascha was easy to banter with and was flexible with angles and shots. We left Sascha after the shoot feeling excited and anxious on how well our vision translated to photos. When we got the photos back we could not be more pleased!! They came out exactly how we wanted them to and I couldn't have been more grateful to have found someone as talented, gracious and kind as Sascha.

How many times in your life can you say: “I have fulfilled something so meaningful that it not only makes me happy but complete strangers as well?” I get that fulfillment every time I step into a wedding, an engagement session, or even capturing a new born. I love capturing the moment that exist right when a groom takes a look at his beautiful bride and can’t help but shed a tear of joy. These unfiltered moments make my job that much better. I live for those instances, where raw emotions are revealed and I can piece together a story worth telling.

We absolutely LOVE our photos! From the beginning, Kevin was a pleasure to work with! I appreciate him laughing with us and capturing all our special moments that he helped create!

Glen Oaks, NY
  • Photojournalistic style

To date, there are only two images of me as a child. The first is my passport photo at the age of 1.5 months, the second is an image of me at the age of 8. Because of this, I have a deeper understanding, value and passion for photographs and imagery. With that said, I purchased my first camera at the age of 16 with my first paycheck! (used to flip burgers at a local Roy Rogers!). With that camera, I quickly learned how much I loved the art of documenting life with imagery and in 2012, I left a 16 year career in healthcare to follow my dream of becoming a photographer. I haven't looked back one day since then.

•down to earth •always cheerful •in love with her job •hits her deadlines •knows the ins&outs of the business •Never fails the meet product expectations The only thing you might love more than Nidji's work Is Nidji. She's a pleasure for both her clients and co-vendors. Wedding planning is stressful on every level, even after you've got your ducks in order.

I highly recommend Bailey. Her photos are beautiful - ethereal and real at the same time, which is exactly what I hoped for and wasn't sure I could find. One of our friends in the wedding party is a professional photographer, and even (indeed, especially) they were really impressed by Bailey. After having done quite a lot of research on wedding photographers I'm confident in saying that her prices are an amazing deal for the quality you get. Plus, she's willing to talk to you openly about budget and what's possible in a given budget. And she's just a really nice, fun person. Having her around felt like having an extra friend at the wedding. Basically, hiring her was a great decision and you should also do it.

In the 20 years that I've been photographing professionally, I’ve honed my skill of knowing when to step in and make things happen, and when to step back and simply *allow* things to happen. Documenting the REAL emotion of the day is how we capture those picture-perfect moments. They happen organically, not by force, and I promise you: we're not going to miss ANY of them. = )

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.

Simply put, Justin is the BEST of the BEST. While his photos are undeniably beautiful in every way, it is Justin’s personality, humor, flexibility, professionalism, and panache that set him apart from all the rest. He was one of the first vendors we hired and, from day one, we knew were in excellent and expert hands. He took the time to get to know us as individuals and as a couple, which allowed us to have a seamless relationship (and friendship!) by the time we actually stood in front of his camera during our sweetheart session and on our wedding day. This level of comfort was key — neither my husband nor I had ever been professionally photographed, but Justin made us feel completely at ease by cracking jokes, making us whisper funny things in each other’s ears, and giving us gentle guidance about what we could do to make the moment, well, picture perfect! Justin goes above and beyond for his clients. During a pre-wedding chat, I mentioned the possibility of having anxiety about being the center of attention on our wedding day and the pressure of talking to so many family and friends. Justin suggested we have a signal between us so that he could whisk me away if I was stuck talking to someone for too long. I’m lucky that I didn’t need to use the signal, but just knowing Justin had my back was hugely comforting. Additionally, after we hired Justin, we were at a loss for where else to turn for the other million things needed to put this wedding together. In a flash, Justin was there with infinite recommendations based on our taste, our budget, and his own vendor relationships. Hiring Justin was one of the best decisions we made and I would recommend him a thousand times over!!!!!

When I am not behind the camera or editing photos, I enjoy short Uber rides to bottomless brunch on the weekends; right now mimosas and I kinda have a thing going on! I have a special relationship with bourbon and FIRMLY believe in putting food on the grill during late afternoons should be the norm. I am blessed to be married to the happiest person on earth (I am so serious), who just happens to double as my favorite person. She keeps me grounded and never fails to remind me how great she is.

I simply cannot say enough wonderful things about Sean. From the moment we contacted him, he was professional, warm, and dedicated to creating an amazing experience for his clients. I am normally very camera shy, but Sean was so easy to work with that he put me at ease immediately. And as a cherry on top, he sent our photos back within the week! When we were choosing wedding photographers, we wanted someone whose work would transport us back to our wedding day. His photos captured the small, intimate moments that we will treasure most about the happiest day of our lives- the laughs as the wedding party prepared together, the moment my father saw me in my dress for the first time, the roller coaster of emotions as we read our vows to each other, the rowdy dancing at the end of the night. I can look at a picture and remember exactly how I felt at that moment. To Sean, the photographer who captures joy- from the bottom of our hearts, thank you. Know that you have created something special that we will treasure for the rest of our lives. It is clear that you take great pride in your work and it was truly wonderful to work with you.

From the moment we discovered Stephanie through Zola, we knew we had found someone special to capture the moments leading up to our wedding day. Her warmth, professionalism, and exceptional talent made our photography journey a joy. Choosing Stephanie for our engagement photos, welcome party, and wedding day was easy. Her prompt, detailed responses, and extensive portfolio showcasing her blend of candid, documentary-style, and portrait photography solidified our trust in her to capture our intimate wedding celebration. Stephanie’s flexibility and accommodating nature were evident from the start, adapting seamlessly to changes like a rain backup date and offering valuable insights on locations, outfits, and shooting times. Her eye for optimal settings, creative backgrounds, and her considerate approach reflected her commitment to delivering the best possible photographs. She effortlessly incorporated our extensive group photo wish list, capturing various combinations of family and friends while maintaining her signature style. Her meticulous planning, note-taking, and venue scouting ensured she was well-prepared for the multiple locations, diverse lighting conditions, and different rooms throughout our wedding weekend. Our engagement session not only provided an opportunity to get comfortable in front of the camera but also served as an introduction to Stephanie's chill and friendly personality. She effortlessly captured the casual essence of our relationship, creating a natural and relaxed atmosphere that carried through our wedding weekend. Stephanie's dedication shone brightly during our welcome party, where she artfully mingled with our guests, ensuring every significant moment was documented. Her ability to capture candid and natural interactions, especially among family and friends meeting for the first time, added immeasurable value to our wedding memories. On our wedding day, Stephanie skillfully captured spontaneous moments during the ceremony, including a few surprises that added to the overall enjoyment of the day. We were delighted that she could portray the lively reactions of our guests during these unexpected moments. From the early setup to the late-night dance floor light trails, Stephanie's genuine enthusiasm added to the fun and magic of our celebration. And, of course, her skill in tying the perfect square knot on the bride's dress was much appreciated. Stephanie's attention to detail and dedication to capturing finer elements truly stood out. Documenting everything from florals to table décor, furnishings, food, and beverages allowed us to cherish these details forever. Despite our busy timeline, Stephanie's keen eye noticed small yet meaningful nuances, and her photos became invaluable memories. What sets Stephanie apart is not just her stunning photos but the entire experience she provides. From dependability and organizational skills to the fun and ease she brings, Stephanie is more than a photographer; she's a wonderful person. Her ability to document unique moments, combined with a seamlessly organized online gallery, exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend Stephanie to anyone seeking a photographer who not only captures breathtaking moments but also enhances the entire experience with her warmth, professionalism, and creativity. Stephanie played an integral role in making our wedding weekend unforgettable, and we are forever grateful for the beautiful memories she has preserved for us.

We recently adulted hard and bought a house - next up is a dog!

Can't wait to meet you!

I was the maid-of-honor in two weddings who had Michelle as their photographer and 4 years later I knew that I wanted her as mine. She is an amazing person to work with, extremely helpful throughout the entire process, and a super talented photographer. She listened to my special requests and accommodated my very large bridal party perfectly in photos. She also isn’t afraid to take a quick detour to capture beautiful scenic photos! My husband and I felt extremely comfortable with Michelle and Allison which is super important since the photographer is the one vendor you are with for the entire day.

Our editing and style depends. Very easygoing and flexible depending on the client's preference. Our team is dedicated in delivering memories.

We decided to do a last minute baby moon in the Miami area. I wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to get a photoshoot. However, I was a bit worried about finding a photographer on short notice, especially between Christmas and New Years. I reached out to several photographers and Ledd Lens was the only company that promptly responded, replying to me within ten minutes, From the very start of our conversation, Andre was exceptionally professional, responsive, and approachable. He was very flexible with my last minute request and accommodating to my asks. I knew right away that he would be a fantastic choice. When the day came the weather did not cooperate and Andre was able to flex his schedule to a time that was not rainy, which was much appreciated. He assured me that this would be a positive experience regardless of the weather. And the photo shoot went fantastic! His ability to choreograph and capture a scene is unparalleled. You could feel the enthusiasm and passion he has for his work, and that is reflected in the final product. Andre did a great job of quickly editing and delivering the photos. We absolutely love how they turned out and cannot recommend Andre and Ledd Lens enough!

hey you! thanks for dropping by. my name is shelby, and i am a queer artist and manhattan based photographer who specializes in weddings + equine portraiture. my priority as a photographer is developing a personal relationship with each and every one of my clients (two or four legged). your special moments are their most pure when you are comfortable and ready to just have fun, and i am here to create that joyful space.

Awarded Best of Zola
Shelby Phillips impressed me from the start. Before reaching out to her via email in the summer of 2018, I took some time to learn about her. From her personal blog, I learned that she is a graduate of NYU, that she loves photographing horses, that she is also an actor and a writer, and that she has a passion for bringing moments to life through photography. From looking at her curated selection of photographs on her website, I quickly learned that she cares about the minor gestures, the subtleties of a moment, and the play of light. At the time I found her (in 2018), I believe wedding photography was not her main focus; it seemed that she photographed more four-legged animals than did two-legged ones. I personally did not mind this one bit; rather, I found her versatility as a photographer to be a source of strength. If she could capture emotion and beauty without outward displays of emotions and beauty, then that speaks to her craft as an artist. I found her gentle and personal touch to photography to resonate deeply with me, and I also appreciated how she wrote about her life experiences in her blog. Here was a passionate young woman who not only observes the world with her eyes, but also attunes to it with her heart fully open. There was so much feeling evoked in both her writing and her photographs. There was so much vibrancy in her black-and-white captures. I was immediately hooked. I dedicate a whole blog post to Shelby here: https://www.booksmartstreetsmart.com/blog/2019/an-intimate-wedding-my-search-for-a-local-new-york-city-wedding-photographer Here's another snipped from my experience working with Shelby: The 5-minute walk to the wedding venue felt like eternity (in a good way!). I opted for an impractically long train for my wedding dress (I’m old-fashioned at heart!) so my younger sister dedicatedly carried it as I walked ahead of her. There were many stares from strangers along the way, but honestly, I did not pay attention because I was so focused on taking small steps so that I would not trip, or worse, get my heels stuck between the cracks in the sidewalk. It was past 5pm and the sun was blazing hot, but because we were situated right by the water, there was an occasional gentle breeze. Shelby was particularly excited about the wind, because it paved the way for some truly magnificent “action shots.” As I slowly made my way to the venue with my sister directly behind me, and my mother and soon-to-be mother-in-law next to us, Shelby was quick on her feet, capturing the magic in the small moments, while playing with the light. As I look back on the photographs that she took of that day, I am amazed by how she chased the light throughout the day and into the evening, how she beautifully brought life into still photographs, and how she managed to capture all our family and friends in a way that reflects each person’s personality. Today, when I visit Shelby’s website, I immediately notice that it has grown substantially. Since I signed my wedding photography contract, Shelby has taken on many other weddings, bringing life to a blank canvas by means of her camera lens, coupled with her eye for precious moments. I am so pleased to know that she is doing well, and that her dedication to her craft has paid off. PS. It is now 2021 and Shelby and I are still in touch! :) Thank you Shelby <3

My husband and I were supposed to get married May 16th 2020 in-front of all of our closest friends and family. Once COVID-19 was in full swing, reality set in that our wedding was not going to go as planned. As our date was confirmed changed and our photographer no longer was available, we were on the search. One morning I came across Lindsey’s profile on Instagram and messaged her right away. We hopped on a FaceTime call with Lindsey that week and we knew she was perfect for us. We vibed like we had been best friends for years and we trusted her every decision along the way. It was very important to us to keep May 16th as our date and we loved Lindsey's 2020 motto “get married now party later.” Lindsey essentially planned our entire lighthouse elopement for May 16th from beginning to end. She went out hunting for locations and we trusted her to find the perfect one. (And of course she did). She went out of her way to watercolor our invitations adorably and other little details that made our day special. Lindsey handcrafted memories for us to share forever. I would recommend Lindsey to any couple out there looking to Elope. Especially a COVID bride; finding Lindsey is what got us through wedding planning during this pandemic!!

We were so lucky to have been recommended her by a friend, and found that the entire experience was seamless--she knew tons of hidden gems in the park to take us, provided a guide in advance to take the stress out of finding something to wear, and the whole thing flew by so quickly! Within weeks we had the full album of photos and I am STILL in awe at how amazing they turned out!

We were so lucky to find and connect with Kim for our wedding photos. Planning it for the 3rd time – yes, we are one of those pandemic couples – we were so nervous about having to find someone quickly that we liked. Pictures were one of our top priorities and we were very picky about achieving the right style. Kim hit it out of the park on all fronts. Not only is she ridiculously talented, but she was a breeze to work with from beginning to end. She is extremely kind, attentive, and accommodating. She offered us a last-minute engagement shoot so that we could meet her and to get us comfortable in front of the camera. This was so helpful for us and made shooting for the wedding much easier and relaxing. She also stayed longer than planned to get those few extra special shots walking around SoHo. When we saw our engagement photos, we knew we made the right decision. On the day of, it was important to us to incorporate our home, neighborhood, and adorable pup in our photos. Kim was super flexible and thoughtful of how to do this. She totally leaned in when I wanted to walk to Washington Sq Park for our first look, where we got the “free hugs” guy to take photos with us, then hopped into a yellow cab to the venue. Kim kept us moving and made the best use of the time we had, which was super helpful since we didn’t have a wedding coordinator. The whole day turned out to be perfect and Kim captured it all for us. Every person who has seen our proof book has said “how are you going to choose? They are all amazing…” and I couldn’t agree more! We can’t wait to work with her again.

I had less than two months to plan my wedding and I was going crazy with everything, I almost made the decision of not having a photographer until I found Patricia! I was lucky to know that she had my date open! She made the whole process so easy! I got a package that includes a small photoshoot before your wedding date. The experience was so nice! She goes far and beyond to get the best pictures for you, she has a lot of patience! I enjoyed working with her! My wedding pictures were awesome too, I decided to go for a natural theme and she did an amazing job capturing the essence of my special day! I’m more than happy and I will definitely recommend her if you want the best pictures of your special day!

I am so glad you're here! I LOVE my family and I am OBSESSED with anything Kate Spade and if I could live in yoga pants, I would. My favorite thing to do other than photography is cook. I am lucky my husband and kiddos love eating as much as they do! We love the beach and anything Disney! I fully believe in having ice cream for breakfast and I cannot pass by a good Italian restaurant without going in. My heart melts when my boy says I love you or kisses my cheek. Being a photographer has allowed me to freeze some of our sweetest moments and I hope to be able to do that for you. xoxo

We are so happy with how our pictures turned out! My husband and I are not very photogenic people and Lauren made us feel so comfortable and look so natural in our pictures!! She is a true professional. Would recommend her a 1000 times over!!

Salvatore was wonderful! He was very kind and professional. Before the wedding, he took the time to speak with us about our vision for the day and the shots we wanted. On the day of the wedding, he spent pretty much the entire day with us, and was even able to split his time between our ceremony and our reception. We got his photos right on time, and they were truly lovely, with a nice mix of posed and candid photographs, and beautiful lighting and focus throughout. Salvatore did everything we could have expected him to and more, and we are very glad that we went with Milieu for our wedding!

Hullo! So you're gettin' hitched (YaaY!), but you’re not super into the idea of the overly-manicured wedding. A+ for you, because this is not your parents’ wedding photography. I'm a farm kid who floats between the journalism and art worlds. I love telling stories as much as I love listening to the stories of others. I’m the type of person who makes up musicals for my own amusement and nurses a soft spot for sci-fi and fantasy. If I’m not taking photos, I’m usually dancing. Or cooking. It’s possible I may have a baking addiction and try to mitigate the damage by forcing the goods on loved ones.

Celia is beyond incredible to work with and I cannot recommend her enough! She was communicative, patient, and helpful during the planning process, and made us both feel at ease with our questions and requests. Early on, we felt completely confident that she understood the essence of us as a couple and our vision for the day itself. The day of, she brought the kind of energy you want around you on your wedding day— calm, joyful, patient, and light. She made the more intimate and planned moments fun and easy, and was so subtle while capturing candids that she practically blended into the scenery. She snuck photos of some amazing moments! Our guests also loved her vibe— she folded into our party so organically that we invited her to stay after hours. Following the wedding, Celia was prompt with sending the edited photos and she really delivered! My wife and I were so delighted to see how many details she documented when we didn’t realize anyone was watching, and how well she captured the emotions of the day. There are so many beautiful shots! These are photos we will treasure for a lifetime. If you’re fortunate enough to get the chance, work with Celia!

We were really nervous about choosing a photographer because we were came to NYC from overseas to get married and we didn’t know many people to give us personal recommendations. We were so happy to have found Karen who provided us with a fantastic photography service at a reasonable cost. She went above and beyond to help us and even found us a great videographer at an extremely good price. Karen was super friendly and relaxed which was perfect, she was a pleasure to have with us on the day. The photographs that Karen produces were beautiful and we love them.

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. I stumbled into photography while I was on maternity leave with my oldest and started a side hustle that I had no idea was going to turn into a complete career change years later. From the very first wedding I shot, I knew I was onto something. And ever since then, I haven't looked back.

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.

We only have praises to sing about Millie. It was such a pleasure to work with her for our wedding. She is someone who goes above and beyond. She really put in the time to get to know us as a couple during our engagement photo session and the planning process that by the time our wedding rolled around, we felt so comfortable with her, despite normally being very awkward in front of the camera. Planning with Millie was a breeze -- she was professional in every meeting. She made sure she understood what kind of shots we wanted, then executed the shot list we created together perfectly. Our wedding day timeline was pretty complicated, yet she was gracious in being flexible and accommodated us in every way possible. During the wedding itself, Millie captured every moment beautifully without being distracting or in the way. She is a rockstar who will surprise you with how quickly she will turn around your photos. We are thrilled about how our engagement and wedding photos turned out and would recommend her to any engaged couple! Thanks for making our wedding day so special, Millie!

But more importantly I am a wedding, lifestyle and adventure elopement photographer based out of NYC.

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.

Jaci was INCREDIBLE. We found her on Zola and fell in love with her work. From start to finish she was easy to communicate with, understood our vision, and was very personable. We didn't want any pictures that were too posed or awkward, which I knew was going to be hard because I am so awkward in photos, but somehow we look amazing in every single one. We are going to treasure these photos forever and I am so thankful that we chose Jaci to be our photographer.

Jordan was the first person my husband and I hired for our wedding. In fact it was only a few hours after I got engaged that I ran to email Jordan after finding her exceptional work on Instagram! The only thing I knew is we HAD to have Jordan as our photographer. Since connecting in 2021, my husband and I have changed our wedding plans quite a bit. With each shift, Jordan has been accommodating, flexible, supportive, and most importantly, a friend to us. Every person I’ve seen since our wedding has remarked about the exceptional photos from our day. There’s a level of artistic expertise that Jordan possesses that simply sets her apart from so many in the field. The work is breathtaking and speaks for itself!

From the minute we contacted Vital he was friendly, professional and knew exactly what he was talking about. Vital's style is artistic and documentary and exactly what we were looking for. As part of our wedding package he included an engagement shoot. My husband and I aren't the best in front of a camera but he made us feel comfortable straight away and we had so much fun! The experience of the shoot was just as great of a memory as the photos we received from it. Having Vital shoot our engagement really put our minds at ease that we choose the right person for our wedding. The photos from our wedding were incredibly important to us and it was nice not worrying about them on our wedding day. Vital delivered close to 500 photos of our wedding which really captured every moment of the day. He even agreed to drive to another location after our reception to capture a few more photos for us, which we are truly grateful for.

A dad, a son, a brother and a jack of all trades musician that loves to rock out any chance I get. I grew up in New York City. My inclination towards photography came from classic street photography and photojournalists from all over the world that told their stories through a lens. It made me pick up a camera and start shooting. Now, living in Maryland I shoot all sorts of stories and moments locally, domestically, and abroad. It's taken me a while to figure out what my "thing" is but I've come to figure out that I'm a milestone photographer. The moments your life that have proven to be meaningful -- I'll be there.

Sam has been a videographer at a wedding that I photographed before. It's so hard sometimes to communicate and mesh well with other vendors while working a wedding where there are so many moving parts and a timeline to stick to. Sam made that part easy! We got on the same page quickly and helped each other with shots the others wanted to get. Never got into each other's way and the entire day, start to finish it ran smoothly. I wish all videographers worked this well with fellow vendors. Makes the couples experience even better!

If I have a camera in my hands, then I am most definitely smiling. Photography has been my passion since I was a teenager and I love bringing that passion to weddings. I strive to capture all the intimate details that make a wedding truly personal. Don't be surprised if you see me crying during the parent dances, it's one of my favorite moments :)

Sarah goes above and beyond! She is so professional, an excellent communicator and truly an artist. She seems to do everything she can to make your time working with her as easy as possible and your wedding day photography seamlessly blend into the day's events. We had so much fun working with her and curating some really creative and striking images that felt like a romantic getaway from the crowd and not like we were missing out on the party. Sarah puts a lot of effort into your relationship from the beginning which makes it feel like you have another helpful friend/bridesmaid/coordinator and not at all awkward in front of the camera. I could not have asked for a better photography experience for my wedding. We even got our preview gallery so fast we were able to see in on our honeymoon which was extra special. We can't wait to see the rest of the pictures and create our photo album! Thank you Sarah!

I got the Photo / Video / DJ package deal with free selfie booth. They came an hour early to make sure everything was setup, I even got an extra hour of photos taken while the videographer was putting together his gizmo. He recommended Drawlines Studio for video which they did a fabulous job putting the video together. There DJ was perfect, had a speaker system for the ceremony and for the venue. The fog machine, sparklers and TVs really made my moments with my husband and dad special. The wedding album and parent albums are such good quality. Over all everything was perfect. Thank you for everything!!

I was introduced to the world of photography the same week I was introduced to the world! All thanks to my Dad, who was never without his camcorder or camera. Because of him, our memories growing up are preserved. Then I got my first camera + tons of film. I documented everything. When film turned into digital, that was a turning point in my life. Since then, my memories, large + small, have been organized on my computer, by year. So I can go back + revisit so many wonderful memories from my life...most which I wouldn't remember without pictures!

Met Nicole while working at a wedding in February 2024. She was very kind to our staff and not in the way at all. She allowed everyone to enjoy the party without blocking views or being rude. Yet managed to do her job with a smile the whole time! She is very pleasant!

One of the most important aspects of a photo is the emotion it conveys. While I have years of training and experience, photographing love cannot be reduced to lighting and angles. ​ Well before your special day. I hear my client's love story. This helps me create eye-catching images that portray the kind of affection that is unique to each couple. I pride myself in being a storyteller-photographer.

Ive worked Anj many times and a valuable and talented person. Her attention to detail is precise and creative. Style and elegant photography. Love working with her. Highly recommend .

With over a thousand weddings under our collective belts, we've photographed and filmed weddings of every shape and size imaginable. We can't wait to document your wedding as well!

Working with Duet was one of the best decisions we made throughout our wedding planning process. From the first meeting, to the wedding day the team was responsive, helpful and knowledgeable about the entire planning process. Hanel in the office made scheduling every meeting, engagement shoot and our day of schedule a breeze and I felt like we didn't need to stress ANY of it! Our photographer was Mike for our engagement shoot AND on our wedding day and it truly felt like a friend was joining us on our special day. The team was so professional on the big day and they truly blended in to the background, making for some great candid photos. The photos we received back were beyond gorgeous and we are so grateful for our photography/videography choice. We loved the documentary style of our photos and we felt that we could really enjoy our day without needed to stop and pause frequently for staged photos. Best choice and truly one of our favorite wedding vendors.

I began my career a decade ago. As a tour photographer, I began accompanying musicians all over the world. Little did I know at that point the low lights, high energy, and late nights would translate well into my career as a wedding photographer. My start as a music photographer gave me the confidence to navigate even the most challenging and unpredictable situations, and I use the same philosophy now while photographing weddings: keep calm, stay observant, and follow the action.

From the very first wedding that Jess and I worked together, I knew I had found "the one." Photographing alongside other artists typically comes with some growing pains, however working with Jess was effortless from the beginning. She has a talent, creative eye, and sensitivity that is unparalleled. Her ability to create beautiful images while gracefully navigating complex dynamics and stressful moments on a wedding day makes her a magician in my eyes. I continue to learn something from her every time we're together. Highly recommend.
