Brent DeLanoy - Kickstand Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (4 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Cortland, NY

I’m excited to say that the 2027 season (booking now!) will be my fifteenth year in business. I began my photo career as a photojournalist for several smaller newspapers, before taking on clients. I was photographer for Golden Artist Colors, based in New Berlin, NY, for five years. I am currently the principal photographer for the Glimmerglass Festival in Cooperstown, NY. My work has appeared in the New York Times, Washington Post, and Opera Magazine, among others, as well as winning awards and appearing in several galleries. I am a member of Nikon Professional Services, as well as the Professional Photographers of America.

Brent photographed my wedding in 2021 and these are photos will cherish for the rest of my life. He has a great eye for candid photos. He was very chill and accommodating. He also got our photos back to us pretty quickly.

The Lovely Lens 
Rating: 5.0 (19 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,300
  • Serves Cortland, NY

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 is not your typical wedding photographer -- not even close. She is so much more! She's a documentarian, artist, journalist, and storyteller, and that is exactly why working with her was one of the best decisions we made for the best day of our lives! My husband and I wanted a photographer who would prioritize candid photos of genuine emotions and chaos (let's be honest, weddings are chaotic!) as opposed to staged and rigid "everyone-line-up-and-smile" portraits. The Lovely Lens fit that bill entirely. In addition to delivering the most beautiful, vibrant, happy, REAL photos of our wedding weekend, she was also such a lovely presence the whole time (I felt like she was a genuine friend by the end!) Also, she was totally game for everything! Our wedding got a late start thanks to the weather, which squished the time we'd allotted for photos exponentially (we also decided not to have a first look, so the photo time was even more squished). Celia quite literally sprinted through a field of wet grass and mud and then through a secret corridor with us as we rushed to get back to our cocktail hour to be present at our wedding. She is a superhero, and we cannot recommend her enough!

  • Serves Cortland, NY

Hello, my name is Julia. I’m a wedding and portrait photographer based in Upstate New York, capturing love stories in a soft, natural and timeless way. Before photography became my full-time path, I studied architecture, which taught me to notice harmony in lines, balance in space and the quiet beauty of natural light. My approach is a mix of gentle guidance and documentary storytelling. I’ll guide you when needed, but I also give you space to be yourselves, so your photos feel real, relaxed and true to you.

We found Julia through Zola and we are so grateful to have found her (and Leo)! She is always promptly responsive, clear and thorough in her communication. We were nervous about having our first professional photo shoot but she was awesome in directing us in what to do. She made the whole process super easy. And most importantly, the photos! Needless to say, I am OBSESSED. You can tell how passionate she is about her work and she really takes her time. We are so lucky to have her shoot both our engagement photos and wedding. I cannot say enough positive things.

Choosing Kelsey Travis Photography for our wedding was one of the best decisions we made in our entire planning process. From the very first conversation to the final moments of our big day, Kelsey and her assistant Ashley brought an energy, passion, and professionalism that was simply unmatched. Not only is Kelsey incredibly talented behind the lens, but she also has this beautiful gift of making people feel comfortable, seen, and celebrated. She captured every emotion, every tear, every laugh, and every detail big and small with such artistry and intention. Her assistant Ashley also indulged our children crazy ideas. Our wedding was filled with sentimental moments, surprises, and meaningful family traditions, and somehow Kelsey and Ashley managed to be everywhere at once, documenting it all without ever being intrusive. It was like having a dear friends’s with a camera, who just gets it. Our guests even commented on how amazing and kind our photographers were, which speaks volumes. They “blended” in effortlessly, hyped us up when we needed it, and even helped wrangle family for portraits like an absolute pro. We are beyond grateful to Kelsey and Ashley for giving us timeless, emotional, and breathtaking memories we’ll treasure for the rest of our lives. If you’re lucky enough to book her do it. You won’t regret it for a second. She’s not just a photographer, she’s magic. With full hearts, Heather & Chris

We are so happy we found Hayley! We had a small laid back wedding and wanted lots of candid photos and nothing too posed. I saw her website and knew I had to hire her, and I'm so glad I did. She was always quick to answer emails which was great. After talking about how we wanted the day to go, Hayley already had great ideas for where to take pictures. Now we have photos of all our friends and family together. Hayley was so unobtrusive she fit right in. She also took awesome photos of just the two of us with the lake at sunset. We love our wedding photos and will cherish these memories always.

Hello, I'm Kayla! Voted most likely to succeed in the field of agriculture. Yet somehow, landed here. And I wouldn't change a single thing. Life has taken me on some crazy adventures and up until 6 years ago, none of those pointed to being a photographer. Becoming a mom led me to pick up a camera and since then I haven't put it back down. I quickly developed a passion for telling people's stories. Capturing the most intimate, heartfelt moments truly sets my soul on fire.

Kayla French Photography was a fantastic choice for our wedding photography. Kayla provided great communication everything leading up to the wedding and after, and the day of she couldn't have been more helpful. Kayla's work is absolutely amazing - you can tell she loves what she does and it really shows in the beautiful photos she captured. Kayla helped in every way to contribute to our special day, and our guests really enjoyed her presence and positive energy. We are thrilled with the sneak peaks and can not wait to see final photos. We would highly recommend Kayla French Photography to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photographer.

  • Serves Cortland, NY

Wedding, couples and boudoir photographer based in Owego, NY. I do both outdoor session and studio sessions. Some fun facts about me: #boymom, book worm, gear head, horror fanatic, iced coffee is life.

I had the pleasure of working with Morgan at a styled photo shoot I planned. Morgan was professional, easy to work with, and fun to be around. She worked well with the other photographers and gave clear directions to the couple being photographed. She was quick to edit photos and get them back to me. Even though it was a staged shoot, none of the photos of the couple look “staged.” I absolutely love her editing style, and her photos from the shoot are some of my favorites from the whole day. I use her photos frequently in social media posts, printed marketing materials and advertisements. I’m looking forward to having Morgan take some branding photos for me and my business coming up this spring. I’ve added her to my preferred vendor list for a reason. You definitely want Morgan to capture your day!

As a documentary-style wedding photographer, I help couples tell their honest and joyful stories. And honestly, you don’t need someone directing you– you’re more beautiful when you’re just being you. I firmly believe you should spend your wedding day focused on yourself, your partner, and your celebration– not the camera.

We had such a great experience working with Allison from start to finish. She was extremely communicative and easy to work with both in the planning stages and the day of our wedding. She got amazing pictures without ever being in the way. We LOVED our photos and the wedding photo album she helped us design. We felt so lucky to have found her - HIGHLY RECOMMEND !!

Claire Teator Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (2 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,800
  • Serves Cortland, NY

My photography journey began in college with film. After moving from Pennsylvania to NYC, I fell in love with wedding and street photography while documenting daily life on 35mm. I brought my camera everywhere, observing how people interact and how moments unfold. Those years shaped the way I approach photographing couples and families today—with curiosity, patience, and a love for capturing real, unscripted moments.

Claire was amazing!! She is so sweet and personable, right from the very first email exchange. Her rates are very reasonable and transparent, and she even helped us customize a package that worked best for our wedding. We had two pre-wedding sessions to go over the details, list of photos needed, and all the logistics, and she was very accessible via email throughout the process. She emailed me two days before the wedding letting me know that she had scoped out the venue and the surrounding area to find good photo spots, which made the day of so much smoother. We did our formal photos before the ceremony, and she corralled the family and wedding party professionally and kindly. She kept our spirits up and she wasted no time. Her assistant was also very professional and friendly, and they collaborated so well to get maximum photos at every angle. Claire made sure we had plenty of time for just the grooms, various locations and poses, and we got to have fun and create some really unique shots! During the ceremony I didn't even register that she was in the room, and yet we have beautiful photos of the entire thing, so she did a great job of staying out of the way while also getting all of the important shots! Throughout the cocktail hour and reception Claire and her assistant split off to maximize coverage, but I felt that one of them was always close by for a good shot. They also pulled us to the balcony to catch some beautiful shots at sunset, and those were absolutely worth it! Throughout the evening, if I found myself dancing or talking with someone I hadn't gotten a picture with yet, I could easily gesture or call to them to get our picture, and they also got plenty of other action shots. We received a "sneak peek" of about 50 photos within 24 hours of our event, and the full set of photos within 2 months. She gave us the time we needed to finalize our photo album, and had it published very quickly. We are so glad we chose Claire, she captured our day perfectly and was such a pleasure to work with.

Thank you for visiting my page! I hope you'll consider this a virtual, and excellent, handshake. I have been photographing odds & ends since I was just a little kiddo, and professionally for more than 20 years, and I can say with complete certainty that I LOVE what I do.

We LOVE our wedding photos from Sara! I not only had Sara take the photos at my own wedding, but as a wedding planner, I highly recommend Sara to the couples I work with - she is absolutely lovely to work with, and takes truly amazing photos.

I have always been in love with photography. The hard part in the beginning was turning it into a career! But through exploring the different types and genres of photography, I settled on portraiture with an editorial or story-based style. Weddings were the natural outlet for this interest. They are beautiful, fun, and I can be creative. There is an element of joy and excitement that I am drawn too. Every wedding is different, but they all have these qualities.

Josh Baldo Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From our first interaction, his communication style was easy, comfortable and adjustable to our needs. The quality of Josh’s work was artistic and excellent. He delivered the photos in a timely manner as promised. On the day of our wedding, Josh moved with ease throughout the ceremony. He never drew attention to himself, and was able to capture all the special moments seamlessly. We are thrilled with the beautiful, vibrant photos that now allow us to relive our wedding day. We highly recommend Josh Baldo Photography to any couple looking for an exceptional photography experience.

Our photos are so beautiful and looking at them instantly takes me back to how I felt on our wedding day. We had both blazing hot sun and rain during our wedding, and the photos from both are equally gorgeous.

When I'm not behind the camera I'm hiking, fly fishing and doing yoga. I'll use any excuse to head north to the Adirondacks. (Eagle Bay donuts is my favorite incentive for a day trip.) I'm on my way to becoming a licensed yoga instructor. I'm obsessed with how my hair smells after a day in the woods. If you can relate, we'll probably be best friends. I live with my amazing fiancé, Alex, and we have two kids who are way cooler than we are. We also have FIVE cats and two dogs. I'm always down for a coffee date if you want to chat wedding details or hiking trails. I always want your dog to come to your engagement sessions.

Booking Jen Pecka Photography for our wedding was one of the easiest and definitely one of the best decisions we made for our January wedding! From the moment we met, Jen made us feel super comfortable and confident in front of her camera. She shot both our engagement session as well as our big day and all of the photos came out absolutely GORGEOUS!!! She captured every single detail of our wedding beautifully. As we looked through our wedding photos for the first time, we were able to relive the best day of our lives. Jen not only captures special moments, but the genuine emotions of those being photographed. All of our photos are STUNNING, I am having a very difficult time choosing favorites to print and hang in our home. Trust Jen Pecka Photography to capture your wedding day, you will not regret it!

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!

We had our wedding in California and Edgar flew out and helped make our day so memorable! We didn't know him before and didn't end up doing an engagement shoot (so I was a little nervous) but he absolutely nailed it. His photos are stunning (I've gotten a TON of compliments on them), he is extremely communicative, and he had a bunch of photos ready to go by the end of the wedding. Both me and my husband aren't great at posing for photos and he knew exactly how to place us without it feeling faked. Super easy to work with and just a really nice guy. I'd highly recommend him to anyone!

Our whole wedding party had a great time making jokes and messing around with the photographers, and seeing them have fun made the whole vibe a lot better. They hyped us up in every pose and made the day nothing but positive. I would highly recommend Heather and her team to anyone who wants a photographer who cares about them! I felt like a million bucks on my wedding day, and I have to say it is mainly because of these incredible photographers. Finally, the results speak for themselves! The pictures we received literally look like they're out of a movie. Their talent is unmatched and should be talked about more. The feelings and emotions of our special day were captured in such a natural and beautiful way. I am so grateful to have these pictures for life, and I can't wait to show my kids one day. I will never be able to forget what it felt like, thanks to these incredible people with unreal talent. I also cannot believe how easy it was to book her and for such a reasonable price! Booking Heather and her team was truly the best decision we could have made. I recommend them to anyone from all walks of life. You will be welcomed and taken care of like a friend or even family!

Ali Cushing Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (35 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Cortland, NY

My name is Ali Cushing; a NY-based photographer working in a blended documentary and editorial approach, emphasized with a cinematic method, and a personalized, true to life editing style. I am honored to be entrusted with depicting genuine love, authentic characters, and immortalizing precious memories. I see beauty in the subtle details as much as the wide, epic scene, while I see glory in the mundane in-between moments as much as the heart thudding highs. I am adamant that everyone, of all genders and orientations, any ethnicity, culture, or faith, all shapes, ages, and abilities, are welcome and I’d be delighted to work with you.

We are introverted and were nervous about being photographed, but Ali made us feel comfortable from start to finish. She kept communication open and friendly throughout the entire process, which helped us feel at ease. On our wedding day, she went above and beyond—helping me with my shoes and offering to assist my husband with his tie. Ali captured the beautiful pictures we wanted based on our inspiration, even though we're not really photo people. She truly made our engagement and wedding photos special. We highly recommend Ali ! We loved our photos !!
