Kozmo Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (14 reviews)
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,800
  • Serves Brainard, NY

Hello ! first and foremost, congratulations on your engagement as you embark on this new chapter of your lives. My name is Kevin and I started the ground work Kozmo Photography back in 2014. My goal has always been to capture the uniqueness of each and every couple on the biggest day of their journey together. It is therefore my belief that a great wedding photographer must be able to capture the big and small details throughout the day with minimal interference while being keenly aware of the surrounding conditions. This is my promise as I strive to deliver to each and every couple the wedding photos they deserve.

Kevin at Kozmo Photography is top-notch! He goes above and beyond to make sure he captures every moment of your special day. From the moment I booked him to the moment we received our wedding photos, I knew we made the right choice. He was so personable and fun to get to know at our engagement photos that I knew he would be perfect for our wedding day. He quickly responded to all emails I sent during the wedding planning process. He met with us a few weeks before the wedding to make sure he knew exactly what types of photos we wanted and to make sure we had a good game plan for the day of the wedding. On the day of the wedding, he was great at making those getting photographed feel comfortable but he also made sure everything flowed well. For example, my veil kept falling out so during pictures he personally put it back in and it stayed! He captured every moment beautifully! He was there while we were getting ready all the way until we left the venue at the end of the reception. Kevin will go above and beyond to make your day and your photos perfect!

Cassie is a true professional who made us feel at ease from the initial planning stages to the day of the wedding. She was patient and kind during the planning stages, taking time to answer any questions I had. She was also able to recommend other vendors which we ended up booking. 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! The Super8 Film is so different from most wedding videos and we're so happy we made the decision to get one. We can't recommend Cassie and The One Eleven Collective highly enough for anyone looking for a talented, professional, and fun wedding photography/videography team.

I have no doubt of the talent that overflows from this studio, but mine and my (now husband!)'s hearts were set on Rob after we spent 3 hours hanging out with him, sheltering from the cold rain since we motorcycled there. His grace and warm demeanor belies how quickly and astutely he notices little details, almost like a supercomputer (or like a Rob...ot! hah). He is an expert at assessing lighting situations, but what's even more impressive is how he can massage the vibe of the room to herd people where he wants them to go. Also, his double-holster camera setup makes him look so freakin cool! I often feel like weddings are an elaborate play/dinner, meant to entertain and satiate the family members who attend. Considering the stress of being project manager and hostess, having Rob for our engagement shoot and on our wedding day was something we both looked forward to immensely. Things are fun with him! And he's so thoughtful, another relief from stressful planning and expectations. He went rooting through the shrubbery and got us pictures of adorable bumblebees, remembering that we were so smitten by them during our engagement shoot :) He didn't find any snails, though! Oh, well! I'm often critical of photographers' work because I am so critical of my own. But, without a doubt, I recognize the leagues of honed talent that Rob has, as well as his studio! The assistant, Lilly, is smart and such a sweetheart, and whoever does the editing -- Emily? -- is awesome. For people who would prefer to do photography work themselves, Ryan and I choose Rob without question. Thank you, Rob and co., for all your hard work and dedication to craft!!!!!!

Heart Speak Visuals

  • Serves Brainard, NY

Hello hello! We, Lindsey & Kevin, are the individuals behind Heart Speak Visuals. Together since 2015, we have never been shy to new experiences or exciting challenges. Lindsey, a Virginia native, took her first photo class in high school and has developed a passion for photography and videography ever since!

Awarded Best of Zola
If you're getting married and have been within thirty feet of me recently, you'll have heard me recommend Lindsey already. From our very first conversation, she was responsive, transparent, and incredibly helpful. She made it easy to understand her packages and pricing without making us jump through hoops, and her communication throughout the planning process was excellent. The planning call, timeline guidance, and shot list resources were invaluable, especially since my husband and I have large families to wrangle for photos. Our photo package also included a mini session that we used for our engagement photos, which gave us a chance to get comfortable with Lindsey before the wedding day and helped us feel much more relaxed in front of the camera. On our wedding day, Lindsey and her second photographer were organized, professional, and wonderfully calming. Somehow, Lindsey managed to give such clear direction that even someone who normally feels awkward in front of a camera felt comfortable and confident. She kept us on schedule while wrangling a large group of family and friends, captured beautiful candid moments we never would have seen ourselves, and perfectly balanced documentary-style photography with more editorial portraits. Some of my favorite photos are a candid shot of my nephew dancing with his grandparents, a hilarious picture of my mom and bridesmaid dancing to Love Shack, and a gorgeous detail photo of my shoes nestled in the flowers. We received a generous collection of sneak peeks within a week of the wedding, and the gallery system has been easy to use and share. I have already been recommending Lindsey to everyone I know and would hire her again without hesitation.

It’s close to where I grew up and where my family lives in the Catskills. I love EVERYTHING about a wedding day; the anticipation, the joy, the laughter, the happy tears, and the simple fact that everyone you know is gathered to celebrate with you. I have had the honor of celebrating with so many couples and friends and family and it gives me so much joy. I want you to have the BEST day!! So tell me about your loves, your plans, and let’s start telling your story!

We can’t say enough amazing things about Kristin Lavigne of Kalz Photography. We have been absolutely raving about her since the wedding — she truly exceeded every expectation. Kristin captured the most stunning photos of us, which is saying a lot coming from Travis, who normally hates taking pictures. She made us feel completely comfortable and natural in front of the camera, and the results are beyond anything we imagined. Her energy was great and immediately put everyone at ease. Kristin is attentive, kind, caring, fun, and incredibly talented. Her eye for detail is unbelievable — she knew exactly how to capture each moment and turn it into the perfect shot. She didn’t just document our wedding; she elevated it. She made our special day even more special, and we know we’ll cherish these photos for the rest of our lives. Her assistant, Arianna, and her husband were also fantastic — the three of them worked together seamlessly and were everywhere all day, capturing every moment without ever feeling intrusive. They were the perfect team, and we are so grateful we got to work with them. Choosing Kalz Photography was one of the best decisions we made. We couldn’t be happier, and we recommend Kristin with all our hearts.

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 have been in the wedding industry since I was fourteen and have been taking photos professionally since 2019.

Hi, I’m Bridget — but you can call me Bee, cause that’s what my friends call me! And since we’re basically already best friends, let me tell you a secret: taking pictures isn’t even the thing I love most about my job. Now, don’t get me wrong, I’m as obsessed with taking gorgeous, dripping-in-light photos that you’ll look back on for ages as much as the next photographer. But what I really love? Meeting the most kind-hearted people and getting to know them on a level much deeper than the typical client-photographer relationship.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment we hired Bridget, we knew we were in great hands. She was not just a photographer, but a true partner throughout the entire wedding planning process. Her support was invaluable as she helped guide us through timelines and offered advice on how to make our day even more special. From our engagement photos to our wedding day, she truly went above and beyond. She was not only an incredible photographer but also the ultimate hype girl—cheering us on, keeping us calm, and making sure every moment was captured beautifully. Her attention to detail was incredible; no special moment was missed, and she seamlessly blended candid shots with stunning portraits. When we received our photos, we were absolutely blown away! Each image was more beautiful than we could have imagined—emotions, laughter, and love were all perfectly captured. The photos felt like a reflection of our story, and we’ll cherish them forever. Thank you, Bridget, for making our wedding day unforgettable and for giving us memories that will last a lifetime! We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer.

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.

Sydney K Andrew was incredible! She made our wedding day feel so easy and special. She is SO fun to be around, super friendly, and captured every moment perfectly without ever feeling intrusive. Our photos turned out gorgeous — exactly what we hoped for and more. We’re so grateful for her talent and the heart she put into our day. Highly recommend Sydney to anyone looking for an awesome wedding photographer! We cannot wait to keep using her for all our future family events!!

JB Photography was the absolute best to work with! From the very first zoom call, Jenna’s energy, experience and passion were so clear. She is creative, thoughtful and detail-oriented - from making us feel at ease during our engagement photoshoot (the first time we ever did a “formal” shoot as a couple), through expertly navigating the wedding day timeline ensuring that every moment was captured, Jenna made sure that every detail was covered. When we received all of our photos we were blown away by how she and her team captured everything, from the smallest detail to the full group shots, in such beautiful and creative ways. Now the hard part - choosing our favorites (which we know Jenna will beautifully layout in an album which we’ll cherish forever)!

  • Serves Brainard, 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!

Siobhan was truly a pleasure to work with on our special day. She joined us for over 5 hours during our NYC courthouse ceremony and she captured so many incredible moments. Most of my favourites are candid or in motion - we barely knew she was photographing. She also researched the area and managed to bring us to multiple landmarks that made for a beautiful setting. She was able to give clear direction on some of the more formal photos and she made the whole experience lots of fun. I’d highly recommend her very tasteful and professional work.

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.

We worked with Kristen & Sheridan for our wedding earlier this year and are so lucky to have found them! TL;DR: From planning and day-of execution to the delivery of our wedding gallery, Kristen & Sheridan were incredible to work with. Not only were they the perfect presence for our wedding day, they captured it in such an authentic way with a stunning final product. We connected with Kristen & Sheridan the moment we met them which was important to us considering the amount of time you spend around your photographers. We did an engagement shoot prior and we not only received an incredible batch of photos, but we were able to establish a rapport that made the flow of our wedding day feel that much easier. When we had to tweak our photo schedule or change locations, they were the perfect people to help us pivot and keep things on track. And when it was time for the ceremony & reception, their discrete coverage led to incredible results that captured our day in such an incredible way. The wedding gallery they created was nothing short of amazing and we were able to see moments of friends & family we would have never seen day-of. And truly, everyone who interacted with them LOVED them. We had opted not to have a videographer and knew our photographs were going to be our primary memory of the day, and we have no notes! Kristen & Sheridan captured the perfect story of our wedding and we would recommend them to anyone!

Erika was an amazing wedding photographer. We hired her for both our wedding and our engagement photos. While our engagement photos were fun, the wedding is where she truly stood out. She was so easy to work with on the day of and had a blast with our guests. We had a smaller wedding (50 people) and were initially worried about missing some key shots. However, those fears were completely unwarranted once we saw our photos! We only hired Erika and didn't have a second shooter, yet she was able to capture all of the necessary family photos we wanted, candid moments, and even impromptu photo requests from guests. The photos we received were of such high quality. We had specifically told her we liked the look of black and white photos, and we received several back in our preferred editing style. The photos came back in about 6 weeks, which is incredibly fast for weddings! We also received a sneak peek within 3 or 4 days. We highly recommend Erika!

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.

Hello, new friend! I'm Rebecca. I'm a journalist who fell in love with taking pictures and documenting love. I'm also enthusiastically lgbtq+ friendly, body-positive, delighted by DIY and pro making-it-up-as-you-go. Let's celebrate your love, your way. I have to be up front about a few things. First, I'm probably going to make friends with your grandma, and even shake it while taking photos on the dance floor. Oh, and if your pet is involved in your wedding, I might pass out from joy. I will almost definitely get a little teary-eyed during your vows, but don't worry... I can take pictures and cry at the same time.

I have used Rebecca on numerous occasions to photograph our family's milestones. I would highly recommend her! She's great with kids, creative, and so much fun to be around. You will not be disappointed!

Holly and Jim are a husband and wife photographic duo in Schoharie County NY, covering the Catskills, Hudson Valley and Upstate NY Capital Region. We primarily do photography in the Catskill Mountains, Adirondacks, Saratoga Springs, Albany, Hudson Valley, Berkshires, Poconos & Vermont Green Mountain areas.

OOTO was such a joy to work with for our December wedding! They were quick to respond to our inquiries and were professional and easy going which really helped to put our minds at ease! The day of the wedding, we received really helpful direction and Holly had some really creative ideas which resulted in beautiful photos. They were also on time despite a bad snow storm the night before which we're really grateful for! 10/10 would recommend them!

Hi, I’m Angel - the lead storyteller at Angel Photo & Video. After 20 years as a fitness instructor, I followed my heart back to photography and never looked back. I capture everything from family portraits to real estate listings, but weddings are where I truly come alive. I’m all about real moments, raw emotion, and catching the little things you didn’t even know you missed. I’ll keep your day running smoothly, make it fun and stress-free, and deliver photos and videos you’ll cherish for a lifetime.

We had Angel as our wedding photographer, she was so easy to work with, communicated well and kept things moving the day of (we had a lot of photo groups to get through). The pictures came out absolutely stunning, perfectly edited and the part I wanted most was sunset photos and they were exactly how I imagined them.

Hi, I’m Sarah (she/they), a wedding photographer based in the Adirondacks of New York. I photograph weddings with care, intention, and a deep respect for the moments that matter most for couples of all identities and love stories.

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!

Mostly-film photographer based in Upstate New York. I want to help you make memories and go the extra mile to make my clients happy. Rarely seen without my (current) favorite camera: a Leica Q2 I want to take the originals, not the photocopies

Ross blew away any expectations I had. He was so personable that multiple guests asked if he was our friend/how we knew him! He was involved in every aspect of the wedding, totally capturing the essence of the day. Rolled with whatever crazy idea we had. Genuinely a wonderful person on top of a fantastic photographer. He made you so comfortable and it really showed through the pictures. I cannot recommend him enough. We will have these pictures for a lifetime to come!! I’m so glad we went with Ross!

Creativity has played a role in my life ever since I was a little girl. I grew up in upstate NY loving the outdoors and being close to the mountains! Although I loved where I grew up, when I graduated high school I decided to move South to Georgia to pursue a degree. While studying Fine Arts at the Savannah College of Art and Design, I fell in love with photography. I received my B.F.A in photography and then moved back home to NY where I became busy photographing weddings.

Meghan shot our summer camp wedding in September of 2023 and did an amazing job! We asked Meghan to come early to our wedding to capture our guests enjoying the various camp activities and the pictures came out fantastic! Her attention to detail and photographic composition skills are great and her photos really tell the story of our special day. As a testament to the previous statement, we had a full moon and clear sky on our wedding night and Meghan had the idea to get a shot of us together under the moonlight which made for a fantastic picture! Meghan's communication, professionalism, and skills are top notch and we would highly recommend her for your special day!!
