David was exactly what we were hoping for in a photographer and I couldn’t have asked for someone better to capture our perfect day. From our first phone call to getting our photos, David has been there for us and going above and beyond to help us and make sure our planning was going okay and just life in general. We were looking for a creative photographer to put their own spin on our photos and get some unique poses and shots and David checked that box over and over again. David uses modern technology to ensure he captures the best of your moments and enhances the environment around you for just an even better product. Above all, we felt like we made a friend due to David’s positive attitude, the laughs we shared, and eagerness to capture YOUR moment.

We cannot recommend Jason highly enough! From the very beginning of our wedding planning process, he was amazing to work with. He kept in touch regularly, offering helpful suggestions when we were unsure about timelines or logistics. On wedding day, Jason was an absolute joy to work with. He brought such positive energy and made everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera. He remembered every detail we discussed beforehand—from specific photo ideas to family members’ names—and even came up with creative ideas on the spot based on the location, lighting, and his incredible experience. He sent over several sneak peek photos the very next morning! It was so exciting to see how beautifully everything turned out, and it made us even more eager for the full gallery. Jason’s turnaround time was exactly as promised in his contract, and he continued to check in with us throughout the process, even though he was clearly busy with other weddings. Jason’s talent, professionalism, and thoughtfulness made him such an important part of our wedding. We're so grateful to have found him and for the stunning memories he captured and would 1000% recommend him to anyone. If we have the chance to work with him again in the future, we absolutely will!

Fairytale Dreams Photography

STOP PERFORMING & STOP PRICE SHOPPING: Your wedding is not a generic fantasy you saw online, it's a legacy. Here is the truth: The wedding industry often forces too much "performance" on the couple. This risks the loss of your genuine, unscripted story. That is why the greatest risk you face is looking back and realizing the emotional moments of your people were missed—an irreversible mistake.

I never write reviews but for Cass I definitely had to. She is absolutely amazing, she captures the moment without you even realizing.

Welcome! And Congratulations! I am a Wedding & Family Photographer based in Plattsburgh, NY. I grew up in Charlotte, VT where I fell in love with Lake Champlain and all the beauty that Vermont has to offer. I now live in Rouses Point, NY and continue to be drawn by Lake Champlain and its charm. When I am not behind the camera capturing the authenticity of my clients moments I am spending quality time with my husband, his two beautiful children and our two dogs. We spend our summers on Lake Champlain and our winters inside the hockey rink. My love of photography started the moment I held my first camera. I hope to share that passion with you!

Awarded Best of Zola
We were very pleased with Kyla! She was so willing to adapt to our changes as the weather dictated. As an older couple , we didn’t feel the need to have every traditional shot .. we wanted candid shots of our family enjoying themselves along with our tiny ceremony. She blended into the background to accomplish just that and thought quickly on her feet to notice a break in the weather to get outdoor group shots and some of us by our boat . We were definitely too involved in the enjoyment of the day to look for those opportunities and we are so glad she was on it ! We love the photo memories she has created for us and would absolutely recommend her to anyone considering a photographer for their event!

My experience with Butterfly photography is really good. Our first consultation was so informative. She really wanted to get to know us and what we like/ don't like with photos. At our wedding day she came prepared with different props for our rings and detailed shots. She had so many ideas for the family photos and she got them done very quickly. Which I was shocked because we have such a big family. Her and her assistant are amazing at what they do. I would recommend this photographer to anyone who is getting married in the Thousand Islands NY

Wedding day, they came in and literally handled it all. Jenn even sewed my nieces dress so it fit her properly. She was the master of all things. The day went amazing from 1st look to the cutting of our cake. They made it all so easy for us. I was a ball of nerves and Jenn made it all ok. Haha. Both of our families were telling us both, how wonderful they were. Jack and I knew from the moment we spoke to them, they would not only do a wonderful job, but we would become friends after. We cannot thank you both enough for the stellar job you've done.

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. = )

Christopher was SO much fun to work with throughout the entire process. From the engagement photos, the rehearsal dinner to the wedding itself, Christopher was there finding the best shots. His demeanor and communication style put us at ease and actually made the process fun! The quality (and quantity!) of the team's work was impressive and they managed to capture the most memorable and funny moments that we still get to relive to this day. Cannot recommend them highly enough!

My name is Ali Cushing, a NY-based/working anywhere, visual storyteller who captures the authentic experience with intention. It's feeling, and it's found in the whirlwind and the still moments, in heightened emotion and calm, and above all, celebrating what makes you and your partner exactly who you are with the people you choose to surround yourself with. In my work composition serves to frame the feeling, with permission to be raw, outrageous, reserved, and unabashedly yourself. I make photos about the day and not the day about the photos. All couples of all genders, ethnicities, ages, faiths, shapes and abilities, are more than welcome.

Awarded Best of Zola
We had the most amazing time working with Ali! We had kind of a long engagement and we initially started working with Ali over a year and a half before our wedding to get our engagement photos done. Not only were the photos beautiful, but Ali made us feel super comfortable and at ease throughout our session. Leading up to our wedding day, Ali was amazing at coordinating the day of timeline with our coordinator and making sure that all the elements that were important to us were included so that we had enough time to capture the moments. One of my favorite things about working with Ali is her calm presence. Every time I was stressed about something in the planning process about the timeline I would talk to Ali and she would immediately make me feel at ease. She was constantly reminding me that the most important thing on my wedding day was to be present with our friends and family (and as a type A bride this was a much-needed reminder!) Ali also came to take photos at our rehearsal dinner and welcome party which was great because she got to know our families and our family dynamics before our big day which was a huge help! On the wedding day Ali and the second shooter Scottie were rockstars! They went above and beyond at every opportunity from helping the boys tie a bow tie, climbing out on my fire escape to get a crazy photo that I had in mind, moving locations at last minute, dealing with rain, helping bustle my dress, and of course capturing all the beauty of our perfect day. I will not hesitate to work with Ali and her team again! She’s amazing, a true professional, and I hope we have the chance to have her capture our big milestones in the years to come.

My husband is my second photographer, so we come as a photo team! Just like you, I have felt awkward in front of the camera. I’ve had photos taken of me that I didn’t like. 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. Like, please don’t take a photo of me from below! Hello double chin! What I’m saying is, I Got You!

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!

You know that all encompassing feeling when you’re revisiting a vivid memory? You can smell the fresh air, feel the way the sun hits your face just so, hear the voice of the loved one next to you, remember the joke that they delivered and instantly you’re laughing all over again. That magic is what I hope to capture as your photographer. It’s my job to hold those moments in time so that they don’t have to fade. You’ll forever be able to revisit the moment, see the exact way they smiled, revisit that incredible sunset, relive the memory and turn back time.

To quote Jessica herself - “10 out of 10, no notes!” From our initial contact with Jess through our wedding day and all the way to our gallery delivery we felt immediate comfort and ease. She seamlessly grasped what we were looking for in our photos and captured every moment better than we even expected. As 2 people who were wary about being the center of attention and in front of the camera she morphed into just another friend celebrating with us - who happened to be holding a camera the whole time. We were so incredibly lucky to have Jess capture our day and to have her beautiful photographs to look back on.

I was pretty nervous about being photographed on my wedding day, especially because it was my first time with a professional. But the second Dani arrived and the day started rolling, I magically forgot my nerves and just felt so AMAZING and present and silly and myself! Dani was so calm and so sweet and knew exactly what to do and where to shoot and how to pose us all, even though it was her first time meeting a lot of us, and she had never been to our backyard before. It was so cool! She really connected with us all and made me and my now husband feel so comfortable on our big day. Receiving our preview photos just 2 days after the wedding filled me with happiness and relief - I looked good! Lol!!! And, the spirit of the day was embedded in all the photos, crowned with perfect golden aesthetic. Wow.

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.

As two film/media people, we were fairly exacting in finding our wedding photographer. Because of Celia's incredible documentary background and the color, energetic joy and intimacy of her work, she immediately rocketed to the top of our list. Our communication was personal and engaging from the jump, and when we met for engagement photos we immediately clicked - Celia is "my people" and we knew we'd be in good hands on our wedding day. Every interaction we had with Celia was just tops. Talent, sure. That goes without saying, but even more than that, Celia and her second shooter Sarah brought incredible energy to our day - full of curiosity and humor. They were patient, focused, and such a well oiled machine. Every image was true and unique and magnificent and alive. The photos are so dynamic and capture the essence of the relationships (ours and others) throughout the day and the uniqueness of the light, warmth and uh, overwhelming number of guests. We received a boatload of astounding images and were just thrilled to have worked with such a tremendous professional and artist. If you want a joyful professional with a careful eye to capture your day from teary prep to the middle of the dance floor - go with The Lovely Lens! Ten stars out of five.

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.

A good friend of mine has said that my brand is to care. She isn’t wrong-my brand is one of caring because my being is one of caring. I’ve been a wedding photog for 14+ yrs. I find that being a wedding photog is a gift - I barely have the words to describe how special it feels to be invited into clients’ most momentous & intimate wedding moments over & over again. I’m a champion for the weird & whimsical, the fun & funky - even & especially on wedding days. Plan your day the way you want to, trends be damned. Let your wedding day reflect your joy. That’s what we’re all there to celebrate, anyway. ✨

We cannot recommend Sweet Alice Photography enough!!!! If you are getting married in the Hudson Valley area, you won’t find a more professional, personable or talented photographer than Erica! When we decided to spend our lives together, we knew we wanted a wedding that was an authentic presentation of who we were; a celebration of two families coming together that was filled with color and nature. We called upon family and close friends to help us with their talents for many elements of our wedding, but knew we needed a professional behind the lens to capture our big day. Erica at Sweet Alice Photography seemed like the perfect fit for us. Her honest and candid photos tell a story that feels real without excessive filtering. We felt so comfortable working with Erica. She was cheerful, communicative and accommodating through every step of the process. Regular email updates and words of encouragement arrived in our inboxes unprompted, and even when we had to make a last minute venue change she was so incredibly supportive. She really felt like part of the family! We loved the preview shots she sent us within days of the ceremony and couldn’t wait to share them with all our guests. We were surprised to receive all our images so quickly and in an adorable gift box with the coolest flash drive!!!

After graduating from Parson's School of Art in Manhattan, I worked as a fine artist, my work involved photography and photo manipulation. I quickly discovered that I loved and excelled at photo retouching, and went on to work for some of the best photo retouching studios in New York. In 2009 I shot my first wedding, it was a dear friend of mine and the beautiful photos were featured in one of the biggest wedding magazines. I realized that I had found my calling and have been producing stunning wedding photographs with my amazing team and clients ever since.

We used Emma Cleary Photography for our October wedding in New Hope PA and are BEYOND thrilled with the results!! The whole team was so easy to work with, and they made sure that we got everything we wanted from the day! Massimo was our lead photographer (with Ryan as co-photog) and I could not recommend them both enough! My husband and I (and our bridal party) felt so comfortable working them and they truly contributed to making our wedding day even more special! Choosing Emma Cleary was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding and we are so thrilled with our photos :)

As a working photographer, I have the wonderful opportunity to capture people, places and things at their best. I am blessed with the opportunity to be a part of special milestones in people’s lives – engagements, weddings, anniversaries, graduating seniors, and family portraits. Photography is a wonderful way for me to capture these key moments.

YOU HAVE FOUND YOUR PHOTOGRAPHER! Andre and team are the best choice I ever could have made for my wedding. They are so great to work with. I had so much fun with the whole team. This man. This beautiful, amazing human was so prepared for EVERYTHING. Tampons, sewing kit, bobby pins. Literally ready for anything. He helped me put my veil in and take it out. He bustled my dress for me. He was there laughing the whole time and went with every single idea I came up with. He was ALWAYS responsive. Always sending me new ideas. Always checking in. Wanted my engagement photos in a cemetery. Andre found the perfect one. Told him I was putting my nephew in a chicken costume. Andre thought it was the best idea. This man even stitched together a photo of me in my dress and my mom in her dress because it was the same dress. Just altered. This team is so incredible at what they do and are just the most amazing people. I want to be lifetime friends with Andre and his team. I am recommending them to every single other couple I know that is getting married until Andre decides to retire. Direct quote from my mother "He was fabulous." You are absolutely making the wrong choice if you go with any other photographer. No one will ever match how great TAJ Photography is. Book. Them. Now.

We loved working with Saumya for our engagement and wedding photos! She was attentive, thoughtful, and professional, and she provided amazing guidance to my husband and I who had never worked with a professional photographer before. Saumya went above and beyond in multiple ways throughout our time working together, and the final photos we received were more beautiful than we could have imagined. We would absolutely recommend choosing her for your special occasion!
