The Story Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,600
  • Serves Ava, NY

Wedding photography that matters is about the people and the feelings of the wedding day. It's not about the poses that I might imagine or the pretty details that surround the day. My passion is in finding the beauty in the REAL moments of a wedding day and preserving those to not only remind you of that love but to share it with generations to come.

Chris & Megan take incredible photos and truly capture the beautiful and special moments! We got married in Ithaca at Cornell University and leading up to our wedding day, Chris met with us and spent time getting to know us. He also informed us of things we should consider on our wedding day (such as a first look or where we wanted portraits). On our wedding day. Chris and Megan took amazing photos and did a great job directing our family during the portraits. We received our digital photos a week later and were so thrilled with how they looked! We will recommend The Story Photography to anyone looking for professional photos in the upstate NY area!

Nicole Lagoe Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Ava, NY

Hey- I'm Nicole. When I'm not working with the raddest couples I'm typically brewery hopping with my wife, or home spending time with my three dogs. I live for SU basketball, and love just about any other Syracuse sports team (Crunch, Mets - count me in). I have been photographing weddings for over ten years, and in that time have had the opportunity to travel around the world and meet tons of new friends.

Awarded Best of Zola
There are a lot of great photographer options out there, and we had talked to a few before we spoke with Nicole. But when we hung up the phone after our initial chat, my fiance and I looked at each other and said, "I think that's our photographer?" And boy did we make the right choice. Nicole was responsive, professional, disarming, and thoughtful. She made us feel comfortable and supported, and covered every moment and every family pairing we wanted. It really felt like just had another friend at the wedding. So much so that afterwards, before we'd gotten the photos, we were like, "Honestly it doesn't matter what they look like, we're just kind of glad Nicole was at our wedding." But of course, every shot was incredible. We really felt like we got so much bang for honestly, in comparison, not a lot of buck. TL;DR: If we had to do our wedding again, Nicole would be our first call. Hire her!

We all start this wild journey one way or another. My way? I was introduced to Ansel Adams’ work in a Photo 1 class in high school. How would the kids say this… his black and whites were giving adventure? What I mean is, they were nice. I had already been hiking the Adirondacks for 15 years at that point, why couldn’t I do it? Why couldn’t I take those photos too? I set out to prove to myself I could. Over the past decade I’ve evolved from landscapes to sports to family portraits to weddings. I continue all of those today. Never forget your roots, right?

Awarded Best of Zola
Joe was phenomenal to work with and made the day so much easier. He was so attentive and amazing. Couldn’t have asked for a better person to photograph the day. He was so quick to capture all the special moments that we wanted and made sure he captured the moments we really wanted. I can’t thank him enough for making our day special and giving us such great memories. I highly recommend him to everyone and anyone.

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I decided to hire a videographer with only 7 months to go until the wedding so we were a little bit stressed & feeling like we didn’t have much time to prepare. Rob with 123 Imaging was so friendly and happy to answer any questions each step of the way so that we felt at ease. We hired 123 Imaging for the Ceremony package only and are so glad we did. We absolutely would have regretted not having that footage. Our dog (our ringbearer) had passed away 2 months after the wedding and although not originally in our video wish list, Rob was happy to search for the footage to make sure the moment with our dog was in the video and not a moment was missed. He was also very good with communicating with us and so kind. Shout out to Amber and Christina who set up the cameras and the drone (and Daniel who ended up photographing our event with our photographer Caitlyn from Moments Captured CNY!). We would hire 123 Imaging again in a heartbeat and I recommend them to any bride & groom looking for a videographer to do the same!

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 was incredible to work with. My (now) husband and I are usually pretty awkward in front of a camera so it was really important for us to find a photographer we felt comfortable with. I knew Celia would be that person as soon as we first connected! She's such a warm personality and a very calming presence to have around on a day that can be quite stressful. She did a phenomenal job capturing all of the candid moments of the day and then gave us some direction when she saw a cool opportunity for a shot, which is exactly what we were looking for. The photos she took are stunning and turned out better than we could have ever imagined. We both still cry when we look at them. Highly Highly recommend working with The Lovely Lens for your wedding!!

We cannot say enough amazing things about Joe and Ashley! From start to finish, they were an absolute dream to work with. Their warmth and friendliness instantly put us at ease, making the entire experience feel effortless and fun. The calls before the wedding to go over details were incredibly helpful, ensuring everything ran smoothly on the big day. One thing that meant a lot to me was getting specific photos with certain family members and bridal party groups, and Joe and Ashley made that happen seamlessly. Being able to send them a list of must-have shots was such a relief, and they powered through it all while still keeping things fun and natural. Those photos will be cherished for a lifetime! And if you’re on the fence about video—DO IT. Having a beautifully edited video with sound clips woven in so perfectly brought our wedding day back to life in a way that photos alone just can’t. The way they captured every little moment, every emotion—it’s truly priceless. Joe and Ashley are not just incredibly talented at what they do, but they also make the entire experience enjoyable and stress-free. If you’re looking for a photographer and videographer who genuinely care, are highly organized, and will capture your wedding day in the most perfect way possible, look no further. We are beyond grateful!

We are a same-sex, interfaith couple, and came to the table with family drama, a crazy dog, and a mashing of cultures. Kathryn didn't bat an eyelash. She has a true inclusive spirit, and that continues to mean a lot to us. If you want to be able to relive your special day with profound joy for years to come, just choose Kathryn!
