Erin Glover Weddings 

5.0

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $6,495
  • Serves Athens, NY

I got my start at a luxury wedding studio in NYC in 2014, shooting weddings in all of the city's classic venues. In 2021, I decided to make some changes to move my business in a more boutique direction and relocate to the Catskills. I aim to bring the same attention to detail and professionalism from the NYC luxury market to my clients in the Catskills and beyond. My style leans more classic to ensure that your wedding photos will be heirlooms and stand the test of time, despite how many fun prevalent trends are making waves on social media at any given time.

We spent a long time looking for photographers. It was probably our most challenging vendor to agree on, until we found Erin. When we met Erin, we loved her aesthetic and her vibe. We especially appreciated how she captured her subjects both formally and with candid shots. She was professional easy to work with, but also fun and disarming. She understood our vision on the first call and contributed really exciting and inspirational ideas on how to capture our day, but also spent time with us to get a sense of our quirks and sense of humor. By the time our wedding day came, she folded right in with our friends and family and was able to seamlessly run through the important family photos we had planned. She worked really well with our other vendors and brought fun and levity to the day. What we really appreciated was that she would remind us of the schedule and what we originally decided on, but on the day was able to easily flex based on how the day was flowing. Some of our favorite photos so far are the ones that were planned on the fly when we decided we wanted to change things up and spend more time with our family. Erin also sent us 10 beautiful photos within a couple days after the wedding, which allowed us to celebrate our day with our broader friend and family communities within days of our wedding. It was a special touch that we hadn’t expected - just like all the others we had come to appreciate during the planning process.

I would highly recommend Ivy Lane Photography! We used Brittany for our wedding day and were so glad we did. Me and my husband are both a bit camera shy and typically really don’t feel comfortable in front of a camera. However - Brittany was able to set us both as ease, and capture some truly beautiful shots that we will treasure forever. Overall I was happy with the experience - we had fun during the process and were so happy with the end result!

Cassie is a true professional who made us feel at ease from the initial planning stages to the day of the wedding.

It put our mind at ease knowing we had a team of vendors that worked well together and we went into the day knowing everything was going to be perfect! The final results were truly special - Cassie's artistic vision and attention to detail resulted in photographs and video that captured the beauty and uniqueness of our special day which we will cherish forever!

When you go on a session with me, I will not only make you feel comfortable, but I will make sure you look good! I will give you prompts to keep you moving so you look and feel natural and comfortable. I’m sorry but there are some angles, and poses that are not flattering for everyone.

Lacie and Tim are just the most amazing photographers (and people). They met up with us in Montana to shoot our elopement photos ahead of our shooting our wedding reception in Indiana. They are both so friendly and fun and Lacie has such great instincts. She and Tim surveyed glacier national park for great photo ops the day before we met. When we met some cloud cover in the park Lacie made a great call to pivot and get some amazing sunset photos on the lake which were stunning. While we drove around the park it felt like we hanging out with our good friends which made it all the more fun and the photos more authentic. Both Lacie and Tim were so helpful and kind, and our photos both in Montana and Indiana are everything I’ve ever wanted! Would hire/will hire them again and again!

I’ve never seen a bride so radiant and so serene at the same time. Every little glance between her and the groom made my heart flutter. The vows were heartfelt, sprinkled with tiny jokes that made everyone laugh and cry. The flowers smelled like spring in full bloom, and the music wrapped the whole ceremony in warmth. When they kissed, everyone cheered, and it felt like the whole world paused for a moment. The reception was lively, full of dancing and laughter, and I caught myself smiling the entire time. Even the small moments, like the ring bearer’s fumble, felt precious and perfect. Their families were full of joy and tears, and you could tell how much love surrounded them. I left feeling inspired and hopeful, reminded that true love is real.

Love Knot Photography

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
A few things that stood out the most about Isaac were how responsive he was, how he was able to accommodate to our budget, and how he took pictures from angles and views that turned out great on the photos. As a couple with demanding careers, I much appreciated how quickly Isaac was with replying to emails. We had a pretty tight budget, and Isaac was able to offer us a package that landed pretty close to our budget and only had the items that we needed the most (mini engagement photoshoot for the website and wedding day). Our ask for him was to get some candid shots as we feel pretty awkward in front of the camera. I personally think that the wedding day pictures came out more naturally because of the setting being surrounded with friends and families, and Isaac and Sushen did a great job capturing the candid moments beautifully. Isaac even had an idea for me to pose by climbing up a wooden stair ladder for a shot that I honestly wasn't sure how it was going to turn out while doing it, but it ended up turning out beautiful and magazine-like in addition to other ones that he asked us to pose for. Isaac put together a behind the scenes video that also showed the reactions of guests to our photo place cards before we had entered the reception area, and this was lovely in that we got to see our guests' reactions that we weren't able to see.

Hi! It's so nice to meet you! I'm a Pennsylvania, New Jersey and New York Photographer from Scranton, Pa. I began my journey as a wedding musician, playing in countless bands in Pennsylvania. It wasn't until the birth of my son that I was thrust into the world of photography. As soon as I snapped my first photo of him, I found the beauty of photography. I quickly noticed the parallels between the music I create and the photos I was taking. The balance between light and dark, joy and sadness, bold and muted, energetic and relaxed intrigued me and drove me to this passion.

It brought us right back to the day when we were looking through the huge inventory of shots. Brought tears of joy and gratitude. Lets not forget the video!! My GOD!!

Just take a look, the work speaks for itself!

*PLEASE VISIT MY WEBSITE TO SUBMIT A CONTACT FORM AT WWW.CANDYNOGALES.COM.* MY WEBSITE IS UNDER MY PHOTO ON MY ZOLA PAGE. Hi, I'm Candy! I love capturing all of the raw, beautiful moments as they naturally unfold on your wedding day. Candids are some of my favorite photos! Don't worry; I will most definitely get those posed family photos as well, but for most of the day, I'm there to document it all as it naturally happens. I would love to chat with you more about your wedding plans and how I can be a part of documenting it!

My husband and I booked Candy right on our first call with her. She was so warm and charismatic, and my husband really connected with her background in the legal field—being an attorney himself, it gave him so much peace of mind knowing she’s detail-oriented and a great communicator. Working with Candy was an incredible experience from start to finish. We weren’t just looking for someone to take pretty photos—we wanted someone who would make the process easier, bring a calm presence, and still have an editorial eye for beautiful images. Candy delivered on all of that and more. She went above and beyond to make sure everything felt seamless and elevated. If you're a couple in the DMV area looking for someone who truly gets it—she’s your girl.
