  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,200
  • Serves Cornwall On Hudson, NY

Since 2014, I have been working as a professional photographer, from dance competitions, to headshots, press events, engagements, weddings, corporate, and picture day in NYC public schools. But no matter where my career has taken me, my favorite moments have always been about capturing love, connection, and togetherness. As your wedding photographer, I promise a relaxed, fun, and creative atmosphere, making sure you feel confident and at ease in front of the camera. My goal is to deliver stunning visuals that will exceed your expectations.

From the moment we first reached out to Lisa, we were impressed by her clear, detailed, and warm communication style. Lisa was an absolute pleasure to work with, and her gorgeous, high-quality work was evident in the stunning photos she captured of our engagement session at the American Museum of Natural History. The artistry she brings to the sessions and ideas she presents are so unique and beautiful - I didn't even realize that we could be captured this way! The aesthetic she achieved went beyond my expectations, and we couldn't be happier with the memories she helped us preserve from our special day. Could not recommend anyone more than Lisa for ALL of your photography needs.

Christopher Duggan Photography

  • Photojournalistic style

  • Serves Cornwall On Hudson, NY

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. = )

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Christopher and his team was the absolute best! From the beginning they were so thoughtful and informative every step of the way. Christopher eased our jitters by recommending a fun pre-wedding photoshoot before our rehearsal dinner which we would've never thought to do but absolutely loved. His calming presence throughout the wedding day made it so easy for us to relax in the moment, this sense of calm and joy was perfectly captured in our photos. Following our wedding, we worked with his design team on our wedding album. They too made this part of the process seamless, we were able to make decisions swiftly and with ease because of their expertise and support. We couldn't be happier with the overall experience or results!

We’re Hudson Valley and Catskills wedding photographers who specialize in intimate celebrations filled with connection and emotion. Our focus is on real moments, beautiful light, and photos that feel like you. Whether you’re planning a cozy backyard wedding or an adventurous elopement in the mountains, we’ll capture it with care and creativity.

I first met Megan and Kenneth through working an event that they photographed where I work. I knew instantly that I wanted to work with them for my wedding as it just felt so warm and relaxing to be in their presence. My husband and I wanted to feel like ourselves and have fun with the photos and that is exactly what they delivered. I was never stressed about the photos or the video because I knew Megan and Kenneth had it completely covered. They were extremely responsive over email and zoom calls in the months before the wedding and would answer all questions promptly. They even provided extremely helpful suggestions and built the photography timeline for the wedding so it never felt like we were running behind or losing time. Overall I cannot recommend Megan and Kenneth enough! It was an absolutely wonderful experience and we definitely will work with them again for whatever photo needs we have down the line.

Hi, I’m Richard, a wedding photographer based in the Hudson Valley. My passion is finding the beauty in the simplest moments and capturing them in a way that feels raw, real, and full of life. As a candid, photojournalist photographer, I’m all about ditching stiff poses to focus on the relationships, the laughs, and the genuine emotions that tell your distinct story. I aim to capture the little details and authentic moments that make your day uniquely yours.

Awarded Best of Zola
Rich was an incredible photographer! From the very beginning, he was organized, responsive, and on top of every detail leading up to our wedding day. He created a comprehensive timeline of the day and provided thoughtful professional guidance whenever we needed it, which made the entire day feel so much less stressful. On the wedding day, he captured every moment beautifully—even with some very windy conditions! We are so happy with our photos and are so grateful to have these memories to look back on for years to come. Rich was in the middle of the dance floor to capture all the fun and energy of the reception. He truly didn't miss a moment! We also loved receiving our sneak peek so quickly—it kept all the excitement going the very next day. We highly recommend everyone hire Rich!

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Cornwall On Hudson, NY

I'm Matthew, a wedding photographer based in Garrison, NY. With a decade as a wedding photographer and 15 years as an educator, I bring two things to every wedding: the ability to document moments as they happen, and the calm to handle whatever the day brings. I prepare carefully, communicate beforehand, and stay present when it's busy. My style is mostly documentary. I blend into the wedding, observing and documenting moments as they happen rather than staging them. Feedback I hear most often is that couples weren't aware of me, but that I got everything. I work with all couples and celebrate every kind of love, and every kind of marriage.

Awarded Best of Zola
Matthew was phenomenal. From our first meeting through the end of our wedding, Matthew was calm, friendly, organized, and professional, and he worked well with everyone from our grandparents to our 3-year-old ringbearer . We felt at ease with him in control of our wedding photos and could not be happier with the results--absolutely beautiful photos that tell the complete story of our wedding. Highly recommend!

From our initial phone call to seeing the final photos, Eddie was a dream to work with! He is a thoughtful, kind, genuine human and a wildly talented photographer. My husband and I cannot think of anything he could possibly do better. At the wedding, he went out of his way to take portraits of my friends with their partners, he cared deeply about capturing important moments with family, and several people — entirely unprompted — told us how much they enjoyed Eddie. He made us feel so comfortable during our engagement shoot, and took truly priceless photos with our dog. Eddie is the best. Hands down!

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.

  • Photojournalistic style

  • Serves Cornwall On Hudson, NY

My approach is rooted in a documentary style that focuses on capturing genuine, unscripted moments as they naturally unfold. Whether it's the quiet emotion of an intimate vow exchange or the energy of a packed dance floor, I’m there to observe and preserve it all with honesty and intention. From small elopements to full-scale celebrations, I pay close attention to both the subtle details and the powerful, unforgettable scenes—because every wedding has its own unique story, and my goal is to tell it truthfully through my lens

Gjagji photography was truly one of the best decisions we made for our November 2025 wedding. From start to finish, she went above and beyond in every possible way. Not only is she incredibly talented, but she is also trustworthy, honest, and genuinely fun to be around—which made such a difference on a day that can feel overwhelming. She blended seamlessly into our day, capturing the most beautiful, natural moments while also being outgoing and engaging with our guests and bridal party. Everyone loved her energy! She made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and somehow managed to get every shot we had hoped for—and more. What truly stood out was her dedication. She stayed later than expected just to make sure she didn’t miss a single special moment, and her attention to detail is unmatched. You can tell she takes so much pride in her work—every single photo was thoughtfully edited to perfection. Looking back at our photos feels like reliving the entire day. She perfectly captured not just how everything looked, but how it felt. We are beyond grateful and cannot recommend her enough! I have 3 sisters and all 3 sisters can not wait to use gjagji photography for their big days!!

  • Serves Cornwall On Hudson, NY

Hi, I'm Stef. I photograph intimate weddings, NYC City Hall ceremonies, and micro celebrations where presence matters more than production. My approach is documentary at its core. I'm not directing every moment, I'm moving through your day quietly, watching for the ones that actually matter. I shoot both digital and 35mm film, not as an aesthetic choice but because film asks everyone to slow down a little. That slowness is kind of the whole point. Based in New York City and the Hudson Valley, available for travel.

Awarded Best of Zola
I had the pleasure of working with Stef when I created a bouquet for one of her elopement shoots. The experience was wonderful from start to finish. She was incredibly easy to communicate with throughout the process - always responsive and clear about her vision and needs. The final photos were absolutely beautiful and she captured the romance and intimacy of the shoot perfectly. As a vendor, I really appreciated how collaborative and pleasant she was to work with. I would definitely recommend her to any couple looking for an elopement photographer who combines artistic talent with a genuinely caring, professional approach.

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. ✨

Awarded Best of Zola
We love Erica so much! Her style of photography is exactly what we were looking for, and all of the photos came out so beautiful and vivid. She's incredibly kind and organized, but at no point did we feel pressed for time. She never gave us the impression that we were running behind schedule, she is just so relaxed and friendly. It's been a month since the wedding, and I still have guests calling me to compliment her and her photos. People said she blended into the background seamlessly - never noticed but, based on the pictures, all around. We can't recommend her enough!

This is delightfully different elopement + wedding photography! From helicopter elopements and lakeside wedding bashes to hiking engagements to weddings with bouncy houses, I capture the adventurous, quirky, and unique. Based in both New York + California, with travel worldwide, I've photographed couples on 6 continents. My creative, fun, & candid photography uses innovative techniques and unique ideas to get photos that make you look twice. Whether you're saying vows in your backyard or having a 3-day adventure wedding in the rainforest, I'll catch every spontaneous moment of joy and laughter—and plan a few unique shots on top of it all.

Awarded Best of Zola
We were so lucky to have found Kathryn for our wedding. As a photographer, Kathryn is an artist. She has incredible talent, creative ideas, and delivers stunning results. As a person, Kathryn is simply a joy. She is warm, easygoing, and fun. She made the process so easy from start to finish and we actually miss getting to chat with her! 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! We so hope for our paths to cross again someday and we look forward to recommending Kathryn to anyone who will listen. We wish her nothing but the success that she deserves.

Looking back at the photos is like stepping into those cherished moments again, and we’re beyond grateful for the memories he's given us.

Hey! I'm Nina. I'm a pretty energetic and charismatic person that loves love and enjoys life. Documenting through photo is my favorite thing on this planet. I've been a professional photographer since 2016 but really I've been invested in photography since I was 15 years old. My love for documenting moments came from a desire to capture my own life and that of my friends using disposable cameras, flip phone cameras and point and shoot digital cameras on beach trips with friends. I have used writing, art, and photo to document my life and it is an incredibly special thing to be able to share that with my clients.

Awarded Best of Zola
Choosing Nina as our photographer was one of the best choices we made. From the onset she was warm, friendly, and professional. She was very responsive and available to answer all of our questions. We booked an engagement shoot before the wedding and Nina even suggested the perfect location for us to shoot. I would not consider myself to be photogenic but Nina made us feel comfortable. On our wedding day, Nina took control and made sure the day moved as we needed it to. I would not have made it through the day without her. There were some minor mishaps throughout the day and Nina quickly pivoted and found solutions. Our photos came out stunning. I asked her to avoid certain angles that I felt didn't flatter me, and she made sure to remember that on our wedding day. She got the perfect mix of candid photos and portraits which is exactly what I asked for. I cannot recommend Nina enough.

I grew up in Amagansett, NY, one town away from Montauk, hanging out at the ocean, riding horses, and photographing my plastic Breyer horse models in different scenarios with my little crappy film camera, always searching for the perfect light. I have since moved on to photographing people with better equipment and I still always search for that perfect light. I now live in the lovely Hudson Valley after a long stint in NYC and Brooklyn where I trained under fashion and editorial photographers before starting my own photography business almost 20 years ago. Full disclosure, I'm a little scared of the ocean.

Cappy Hotchkiss Photography was an absolute delight to work with for our wedding. From the moment we first connected, their communication style was friendly, responsive, and clear. They took the time to understand our vision and made sure we felt at ease throughout the entire process. The quality of their work is truly exceptional - their photos have a nostalgic, natural, and emotional quality that perfectly captured the spirit of our special day. Cappy's skill and creativity shone through, even in the challenging backgrounds of our intimate venue in Greenport. They beautifully documented every moment, from the getting ready shots to the ceremony and reception. The final images are timeless, memorable, and absolutely perfect. We couldn't be happier with the results and highly recommend Cappy Hotchkiss Photography to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photographer.

Photographs are the part of your special day that you get to take with you, and that help you look back on and cherish the memories. Picking a photographer was very important to us for this reason. Obviously, their style and work is important. But you also need personality, someone that can get you laughing and direct your vision. Vicki and Allan were incredible, and just what we needed. From being open and willing to explore our quirky requests, to capturing the fine details we wouldn't have considered. The two of them made sure our night, and the whole experience, was incredibly memorable and every moment will be kept dear and cherished. Part of booking with them includes an engagement shoot. This was a great opportunity to meet with them in person before the big day, confirm that the vibes on the phone matched those in person; and we also got some lovely pictures that we used on our invitations. On the day, they are with you for the whole experience. They didn’t time the hours they were there, or pester us about going over a time limit. We had them for the whole day and that's what they delivered. From getting ready photos all the way through to the late night bonfire. We also really loved that they work as a team by default. You automatically get two shooters for the day, and they split up as needed to capture both sides of the party. They are married and so in sync, it was very clear they had many years of experience working with each other and in the industry. Our families rave about how our “photographers were perfect in every aspect” and we will wholly be recommending them to any and all of our friends who get married in the future. Everything was incredible.

I like to find beauty in the balance between the shadows and the light. They are rarely inseparable. They are complex and totally opposite and yet they can not live without the other. Just like real connection. What is real is beautiful. Only love is real. Your wedding day is important. To you. To your families. To me. And I don’t take it lightly. I understand that you’ve never done this before and you may not even know where to start! Don’t worry- I got you!

Finding a good photographer was high on our priority list for vendors. We got married outside in the Catskill Mountains and as such we wanted a photographer capable of capturing the depth of the forest. After looking through Sam's portfolio we knew she was good, but after working with her and seeing her work firsthand we can say she's the best. Getting your photo taken can be awkward, especially given the high stakes of a wedding. But Sam is able to make you feel immediately comfortable while simultaneously taking the most stunning photos you'll ever see. We also had a connection session with her, which we would highly recommend so that you can know how she works - very fun and relaxed, but professional. Sam helped us outline the entire day of the wedding, and based on her knowledge the day went off without a hitch. We're so grateful she agreed to work with us!

My clients describe me as caring, passionate about my work, and trustworthy. I am honored to feel like an extended member of the family when I'm photographing weddings! When I’m not working with amazing people, you'll find me hiking in the Hudson Valley, brunching with my girlfriends, or planning my next vacation (mostly likely on a beach somewhere). I'm obsessed with warm weather, family gatherings, and sunsets. When it's chilly out, you'll find me with a hot cocoa in hand. If there's music on, it's likely country or throwback 80s jams. ALL people and love stories are welcome here!

We love Debbie! Debbie has been such a pleasure to work with through our wedding process. Since our first meeting with her, Debbie made us feel super comfortable and at home, feeling more like a family friend more than just our photographer. She has a great knack for getting the best shots and captures authentic feeling in her photos. She was so good at helping us relax in our photos (which was great for me as a notorious camera-shy guy). Debbie will be our first call for any professional photography in the future and we 110% recommend her!

This is such a special time and I’m so excited for you! 🤗💍 If you’re still looking for a wedding photographer, I’d love to connect! I’m Erin Braden, and I specialize in capturing real, emotional, joy-filled wedding days across the Hudson Valley and beyond. I work closely with every couple to learn your story, your style, and your vision—then turn that into a wedding gallery that feels personal, powerful, and authentically you. Whether your vibe is romantic, wild, classy, or totally laid-back, I’ll make sure your photos reflect it all.

Erin's photos are like no other. She did an amazing job with our engagement photos and a fabulous job with our wedding photos! Her photos speak for themselves but she also went above and beyond for us. After the ceremony, we greeted each guest as they entered the venue. While I was hugging everyone, she took off my removable sleeves and bustled my dress, while also managing to get beautiful pictures of us hugging friends and family. She heard me say before the ceremony that I would be taking the sleeves off and bustling the dress right away and she took action. Throughout the entire wedding day she was moving, climbing on top of things and laying out the ground to get the perfect shots. And she sure did!! She also posted our sneak peak photos the very next morning. We received 7 beautifully edited pictures before we even left the hotel the next day. Later that day she sent us a link to about 5,000 pictures she took at our wedding. They are not yet edited, so we can't post all of them yet. From talking to friends and reading things in Facebook groups, I know it is not normal to be able to see all of the photos so fast. It was such a gift to look through the photos so soon, instead of waiting for months. She works hard, she works quickly, and she produces photos beyond what we imagined we would get from our wedding day.

Hi, I’m Anita! My goal is to preserve the moments you’ll cherish for a lifetime. Nervous about being in front of the camera? Trust me, I get it, I’m much more comfortable behind it! That’s why I provide plenty of guidance so you can relax, have fun, and focus on each other. Every wedding package includes a complimentary engagement session, so by your wedding day it’ll feel like you’re celebrating with a friend. I specialize in genuine, candid moments with a timeless editing style. Bonus points if you love Harry Potter, rock/metal music, or Zelda!

We had the pleasure of working with Anita for both our engagement session and our wedding day, and we could not be more impressed with her professionalism, talent, and attention to detail. From start to finish, Anita demonstrated an exceptional level of expertise and made the entire process smooth and enjoyable. Our engagement photos were beautiful, thoughtfully composed, and truly captured our relationship. Because of that experience, we felt completely confident going into the wedding day — and Anita exceeded our expectations yet again. On our wedding day, Anita brought a calm, reassuring presence that helped everything flow seamlessly. She was organized, punctual, and extremely attentive, ensuring that every important moment was photographed without ever feeling intrusive. Her ability to capture both candid moments and formal portraits with equal skill is truly remarkable. The final images are absolutely stunning. The lighting, composition, and consistency of her work show how dedicated she is to her craft. Anita delivered a gallery that allows us to relive the day in the most beautiful way, and we are sincerely grateful. We wholeheartedly recommend Anita to any couple searching for a professional, reliable, and extraordinarily talented photographer

After being around weddings for years, I've found my place in specializing in intimate weddings, where I aim to encapsulate the distinct essence of every couple's love story through my lens. From the quiet glances to the joyous tears, having had the privilege to witness and immortalize numerous heartfelt moments, I'm dedicated to ensuring that your wedding day is documented in a way that resonates profoundly with your unique journey together.

Dayna is so great! She has such an incredible eye for photos and has a really beautiful way of catching moments. She also has a personality/demeanor that is so easy to get along with, and I really vibed with her. We got our wedding photos back in 5 weeks, and they are all absolutely GORGEOUS. She listened to what we wanted and what we were nervous for (and repeated it back to us to make sure she understood). I am so happy we booked Dayna and I wholeheartedly recommend her to other couples planning their wedding!

I'm a visual storyteller with a passion for capturing love in its purest form. With 10 years in the photography world and 9 years of experience in weddings, I've had the privilege of documenting countless love stories. My style is all about authenticity and emotion. I strive to freeze those genuine, fleeting moments — the laughter, the tears, the stolen glances — in a visual symphony that tells the unique tale of your love. I've always been a cheesy "lover of love." I feel lucky to document such vulnerable emotions, life-changing experiences, and really awesome parties!

Alex is AMAZING. Her photos left us in awe — I was so impressed by how she listened to my vision and adapted her style accordingly. Most of all, though, Alex excels in all things related to running a business — she’s prompt in email responses, professional with her contracts and payment process, and goes above and beyond to connect you with resources for a successful day (a last minute coordinator, in my case). This is what really sets her apart from other vendors in my opinion. Run, don’t walk, to hire Alex for your wedding!

Clean Plate Pictures

Clean Plate Pictures began when Erica Beckman left her fancy Photo Editor job at The Wall Street Journal to photograph happy couples full-time - guess what? Weddings are way more fun. Erica earned her degree in photography and uses her twenty years of experience in the industry to bring exacting editorial standards and creative excellence to all her work. Her documentary style captures genuine emotions and artfully records events as they unfold organically.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment we booked Clean Plate Pictures, we were impressed with their communication and responsiveness. Erica was always open to our suggestions and worked closely with us to ensure they captured our day perfectly. Her impeccable attention to detail and great eye for the perfect shot were evident in every photo. She was able to herd our many relatives to make the family shoot less stressful, and even made the slightly janky Hyatt Place look elegant in the getting-ready photos. Erica was so friendly and had a strong expertise on the best shots for our venue. We were thrilled that Erica was willing to travel to New York City to shoot our engagement photos as well. We absolutely loved working with Erica (and Elle the second shoot, a dream!) and would highly recommend Clean Plate Pictures to any couple looking for professional, talented, and personable wedding photographers.
