Awarded Best of Zola
I highly recommend Madalina Price Photography as a bride and as a professional wedding & event planner. I first worked with Madalina as a MOH for my best friends wedding in 2020. She did such a wonderful job, that I reached out to her to do my own wedding in 2023. Madalina did a fantastic job not only with our wedding photos, but also with my bridal portraits and boudoir shoot. She even did my professional headshots. Anytime I need photos, I go to Madalina; she is so talented and can truly do it all! All I had to do was show Madalina a photo I liked and she made it happen! Madalina is direct with large groups like bridal party and family, taking the pressure off the bride and groom to make everything perfect, but always kind. Throughout every moment, she was helpful and made me feel very comfortable. This was especially helpful for my bridal portraits and boudoir shoot. I recommend Madalina to all my friends, family, and clients and I look forward to every chance I get to work with her!

Kayti is the sweetest most down to earth photographer. I felt like she fit in with my friends and bridesmaids and could have jumped into the wedding and not feel like an outsider. All of my guests said it felt like she was not even there, but was able to capture magical moments. They are truly incredible photos we can brag about forever. I would recommend Kayti to everyone, ESPECIALLY if you feel awkward in front of the camera. She truly has a way of bringing out the best in you and your wedding whether you are in Washington, Arizona, Louisiana etc.

If you’re on the fence about who to book because let’s be honest, there’s a lot of vendors on Zola, choose Karla! Her photos turned out amazing for both our save the dates and our wedding.

I'm a traveling elopement and wedding photographer based out of Louisville, Colorado. I photograph with my whole heart, meaning that, yeah, I'll probably shed a tear or two at your wedding. Capturing the real love of my couples is what's most important to me. I love working with couples to create images that represent their authentic and raw adoration for one another. Outside of your big day, I love tagging along with both of you on a date to the white mountains or even just drinking hot coffee and laughing on cold winter days. I am passionate about capturing a real & unrestrained version of my clients.

Awarded Best of Zola
Rebeca photographed our wedding, and I couldn’t recommend her more highly. Beforehand, she was organized and setup calls to make sure she knew exactly what we wanted. On the wedding day, Rebeca made the entire photo process so easy and stress free. Working with her was a dream- she was able to perfectly execute the vision we had in mind by setting up great shots and making us feel comfortable. She was able to easily direct large groups of family members, and captured candids of everyone all night long. Rebeca did an incredible job of capturing our day, and making the entire process easy and fun. I highly recommend her- for both the experience and photo quality!

My inspiration comes from those childhood photos—the memories they hold, the emotions they evoke, and the connections they preserve. That’s what I aim to create with every wedding I capture: images that transport you back to the most meaningful moments of your life, filling you with the same love and nostalgia every time you look at them. With over five years of experience and more than 75 weddings captured, I’m here to ensure that the most important day of your life is documented with intention, heart, and artistry.

Upon my call with Hana, I knew I had to book her! She was so sweet & I could tell how much she cared about her work. The timeline process was smooth & I was fortunate to have her come for our Rehearsal boat ride and get pre-wedding coverage of us together and with our guests. She brought the greatest second photographer, Morgan, & they were both a wonderful addition to our day. Their personalities make you feel like they’re fun, sweet guests and not just another vendor. Not to mention, our photos feel like they’re out of a movie! My husband & I already framed two of our sneak peeks and can’t wait for the rest of her beautiful photos!

My name is Marybeth, and I am owner of Rajotte Photography. I live to capture art that illustrates life's most precious moments. As a kid my favourite "toy" was a disposable camera - that sparked the passion. Creating something stunning to share with you, fuels it. Today, Rajotte Photography offers a team of incredible associate photographers, giving us the ability to serve more amazing couples! I cannot wait to see what we can create together.

Awarded Best of Zola
I was lucky to connect with Marybeth Rajotte through a facebook bridal group when in search of a last minute photographer for my beach pandemic wedding. Let me first say that my family (both sides) can be VERY dramatic in regular times. Now we were pulling off a last minute wedding at my in-laws home, during a pandemic. It was drama. Marybeth jumped right in and got us organized so that she could capture the most beautiful sunset moments. She has an amazing energy and made us feel so at ease while she was shooting, giving us direction when needed, while allowing us to be ourselves. When I look at our photos, I feel like she captured US. We were so happy with the quality of our wedding album, and look forward to shooting with Marybeth in the future! We highly recommend Marybeth of Rajotte Photography & Media to anyone looking for a photographer for a special event.

Sasha Pedro Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,600
  • Serves East Durham, NY for additional fees

Authentic moments and real love stories. Wedding photos that feel like you. For me, the most important part of your wedding day is that you enjoy it. I have 10+ years and 200+ weddings of experience, and I genuinely love my job. Queer/LGBTQ+ friendly - always.

I feel so passionately about recommending Sasha I don't even know where to begin! My fiancee and I, as well as several members of our wedding party, have not stopped talking about how great she was since our wedding a couple weeks ago. Sasha did our photos for both our engagement shoot and our wedding. When we started wedding planning, it was important to us to hire vendors who not only aligned with a product we wanted and our price range, but also who were kind, good people we'd want to spend our wedding day with. Some vendors fell short, but Sasha made up for it and then some. First of all, Sasha is EXTREMELY talented. She really captures your essence in her work and several people commented to me that they could "feel" our wedding and emotions through our photos. Her photos are not cheesy or contrived, which was something we knew we wanted when hiring a photographer, and her values aligned with what we were looking for. She is very talented at working with lighting in special and artistic ways. She will "yes and" every single one of your ideas and suggestions for your photos, and really listens to your requests and preferences. Beyond all of this, even if I hated the photos (which is far from the case, I love them so much), I would hire her again and again. Your photographer is someone you spend a LOT of time with on your wedding day. Having someone with good, calm, kind energy who you vibe with is really important. I had a somewhat rough start to my day, getting a bit overwhelmed and behind schedule. Sasha was exactly the person I needed to be with to help ground and calm the energy of everything when it otherwise felt chaotic. She is cool as a cucumber under pressure, kind to every single person she meets, carries such a positive energy, and is a true professional at pivoting/troubleshooting when something goes wrong. She's also a quiet leader who will help keep your wedding running smoothly, pay attention to your timeline, etc. We had a giant wedding party and she somehow corralled people very quickly to get all the group shots we requested, so that I never had to think about it. On the wedding day, as others have said, she was somehow everywhere, but in the least obstructive way possible. I didn't even notice her during the reception or ceremony yet somehow she captured amazing pictures from lots of amazing angles. Leading up to the wedding, Sasha was a delight to work with. She was VERY responsive and willing to meet with us both over the phone and in person. She took the time to do a walk-through of our venue with us, which put me at ease to scope out where we'd take pictures. She even hopped on a Zoom call with us while on her vacation the week before our wedding. Last but not least, Sasha got us our engagement pictures AND our wedding gallery preview much faster than anticipated! If I sound slightly crazed in my obsession for Sasha, it's because I am lol. Sasha's beautiful spirit matches her the high level of talent and artistry in her work. This is your sign to hire her!

Sade was an absolute joy to work with. From the very beginning she was very approachable and listened to my vision. Sade is personable and made me and my loved one feel comfortable. Sade did my makeup for my engagement photos and wedding. I was going for a natural glam for myself, bridesmaids, mom and mother in-law, and she delivered. We all looked stunning. The makeup wasn’t just copy and paste, it was customized to flatter each one of us. There were some hiccups along the way, but Sade communicated with me the entire time. It was a little bummer not receiving the baggy with the makeup remover etc. that came with the package. But that does not take away from the high quality of work she produced. I can honestly say I enjoyed my time with Sade and her “assistant”. I would hire her again in a heartbeat!

I specialize in creating uniquely personalized images that will set your photos apart from the rest. I am stealthy and observant, catching all of the little moments that end up meaning so much more. Feedback from clients includes my seamless workflow and calm demeanor made for a stress-free photo experience and that I achieved the perfect mix of natural and directed moments that do not come off as stiff or posed. In addition to photography and videography I also specialize in designing unique "photobooth" sets for you and your guests to have stylized photos without tracking down the photographer.

My experience working with Bee Roll Media was amazing. My wife and I both needed headshots for new jobs we were starting, and also wanted to do a fun couples shoot for holiday cards. The photographer Brianna made us feel super comfortable in front of the camera and styled us to look our best. I got many compliments from colleagues for how professional my headshot was and was asked if they could get the photographer’s contact to do their own. As for the couples shoot, we had tons of fun. The studio had an awesome retro vibe that totally fit our aesthetic and we felt like we were models in an 80’s catalogue. She even shot on film to boost the retro look! People loved the holiday card we sent out and so did we! 10/10 would definitely recommend!

We are Chris and Jennifer. Whenever we capture the magical moments of a wedding, we are transported back to our special day when we stood hand in hand and promised to love each other forever. It is truly a privilege to be able to contribute meaningfully to such an important chapter in our couples' lives. We love to walk on the beach with our bare feet digging into the sand, hike along forest paths to film a sunrise ceremony at the top of a mountain, and sit on the couch on rainy days to binge-watch Suits or The Office. We also love getting to know our couples and hearing their love stories.

We decided pretty last minute to hire a videographer. I contacted two vendors our venue recommended & didn't get great vibes. Then I came across Martin Films. Chris & Jen were amazing from the initial conversation. I felt like they genuinely cared before we were even clients. Our video is the best part of our day!! It still makes me tear up when I watch it, even 6 months later. If I had to pick one absolute must have for our wedding, it would be this company! They captured our day perfectly & I can't thank them enough. They most certainly have a gift & I'm so thankful they shared it with us. If you're on the fence about a videographer, don't be. If you hire Martin Wedding Films it will be the best part of your special day too! P.s. my favorite photos came from their video!

Her makeup application was flawless, with lasting, high-quality results that made me feel beautiful and confident. On the day of, Maria was quick and efficient, helping me feel reassured that everything would be okay even when I was double-guessing myself. She was amazingly kind and very understanding throughout the entire process. I couldn't have asked for a better makeup artist to be part of my special day.

Motel Cinema 

5.0

  • Videographer
  • Documentary style
  • Serves East Durham, NY for additional fees

Fueled by nostalgic recalling we aim to create a film that is timeless and authentic. Motel Cinema is based out of San Diego, Ca and our approach to weddings is inspired by the untraditional travelers before us, who hit the road in search of adventure into the unknown. We don't like boxes and we don't want wedding films that fit into one. If that tickles your fancy let's get weird.

One of the best decisions we made for our wedding was to hire Motel Cinema! As an entertainment marketer, specifically for documentaries, how our wedding would be documented was top of mind for me and I met with quite a few videographers. Brandon completely exceeded my expectations with the moments he caught on film, the editing, the music, the vibe. I really felt like he saw us and reflected it all back to us in the most special way which we will cherish for the rest of our lives. He was an absolute joy to work with through the entire process- easy to communicate with and quick, but also a relaxed energy that fit seamlessly into our wedding weekend. I cannot recommend Motel Cinema enough and I’m so so grateful that we were connected.

I’m sure your mind is racing with all that needs to be planned. It’s all very exciting but it can also be somewhat overwhelming. You’re planning the day that you’ve been anticipating your whole life and yet you only get one shot at it! By the time you get the hang of it, the planning is over! My goal as a wedding photographer is to make this one aspect of the planning process simple. Photography is more than just images, it’s a real part of your day. Not only do you deserve beautiful images, you also deserve an amazing photographic experience.

We are so happy we chose Lucia to capture our elopement. Lucia is professional, fast to respond to emails and texts, helpful with decisions, accommodating to any requests, concerns, and excited to give advice. Duncan and I really wanted our photographer to capture our true emotion and to get candids of us, and Lucia DID THAT! The day felt blissful and a key point for us was that we got to enjoy the day without it feeling solely like a photoshoot which I think speaks to Lucias talent and confidence in her craft. She was good at giving guiding advice for posing without us feeling posed. I put together a Pinterest board and shot list which she really did a great job pulling inspiration from. The photos are stunning and the exact style we envisioned. Also, our sneak peak was huge and she got them to us very fast. If you are torn between photographers or are just starting your research, you're in very safe hands to stop here. We hope to continue reaching out to Lucia in the future when we start a family.

The Last Nites 

5.0

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $4,500
  • Serves East Durham, NY for additional fees

We are the go-to band for folks who want an authentic performance that is miles away from the usual Broadway-styled wedding experience. Our band was put together one musician at a time to make sure we had the right chemistry. That's why when you invite us to your celebration, you will not have to worry about not getting the band you hired. The Last Nites are a real band made up of amazing musicians who love to play music for music's sake.

Best decision ever to hire The Last Nites for our wedding! They have a great song list and did an awesome job with the additional song we chose for our first dance. Their energy was great and they really knew how to work with our caterers — when to play down time music during dinner, when to dance, etc. My absolute highlight of the night was when they played one of my all time favorite songs (even though it’s not a crowd favorite). Not only did they make our night so fun and special, but they were easy to communicate with up leading up to our wedding day. I HIGHLY recommend The Last Nites for a wedding! All of our guests were so impressed by them and had so much fun dancing and watching them play; they really helped elevate our wedding day and we’ll remember it forever!
