Laura was fantastic! She photographed my wedding and I cannot stop singing her praise. The pictures turned out gorgeous and the whole experience was fun and easy. Neither me nor my husband are big fans of getting our pictures taken; but with Laura we quickly fell into a natural and comfortable zone and got pictures that were beautiful beyond my wildest dreams.

  • Serves Effort, PA

My name is Evelína, and I was born in Slovakia. Growing up, I found joy in nature, books, history, and fairytales, which still inspire my "less is more" approach to photography. I cherish castle ruins, forests, wildflower fields, and the emotions tied to folklore and romance. Now living in Northeast Pennsylvania's beautiful Poconos Mountains, I’m a mom of two amazing kids who helped me realize my passion for photography is more than a hobby—it's my calling. This vocation allows me to express my creativity and connect with others, making it the only job I'll ever want.

I knew immediately that I needed Evelína to be my photographer. Her work is so beautiful and everything I saw was exactly what I wanted. Working with Evelína and her team was an absolute pleasure. She communicates openly and consistently, answered all our questions, and truly delivered magic on our day. Almost a year later (!!) and all our friends and family STILL talk about how amazing, kind, and talented Evelína is, and how beautiful our photos are. I 100% recommend her, not only for her photography, but for her and her team’s phenomenal personalities. Not only will you love your photos, you’ll feel like the people behind the camera really want to make it magical! Truly they felt like longtime friends and everything was natural, lots of laughs and fun all around!

My name is Kasie and my husband Dan and I photograph weddings together in an adventurous and candid way to capture all your memories. We love letting you focus on your special day and showing the story of your day through our photos.

Awarded Best of Zola
My only regret is not writing my review and a public THANK YOU to Kasie and her husband, Dan, sooner (I'm so sorry!!). My husband and I got married on 1/3/25 and I was a nervous wreck of a bride. I very much fell into all the pressure of other people's opinions of what I should/shouldn't do for my wedding and my wedding photos…but Kasie was an exceptional listener. Through conversations upon my first booking with Kasie, I told her exactly what I was expecting for my wedding day (we didn't want a first look or first touch) and she took note. Included were engagement photos and she made it feel so easy and fun, and her excitement fueled us and made us more comfortable. As we got closer to the big day, we had more conversations and I filled out a very detailed questionnaire of what we want, and who we want for specific photos. In the questionnaire, I mentioned how we would do a first touch (yep - you guessed it, I folded to the pressure) and went into details there. We had a phone call based on the questionnaire and she asked point blank, 'do you want to do a first touch or do you feel like you have to do a first touch?' I fumbled and said that I feel like I need to do one and her response was, "Perfect! Then we're not doing one!" THE RELIEF!!!!!! I felt like she was the strength that I lacked during the pressure of wedding planning - I couldn't be more grateful for her. WEDDING DAY??? She and Dan knocked it out of the park well before we even received a sneak peak of our photos. Their excitement, professionalism, and their way of wrangling our massive families for quick (and beautiful) photos…my mom wouldn’t stop raving about how amazing and pleasant they were all day. I felt sadness when they said their goodbyes. Kasie - a huge thank you to you. You are an amazing person and an amazing photographer who truly captures those candid, genuine, real moments so beautifully. Dan - thanks for being such a great hype man and working with Dylan (LOL). Dylan and I talk about how happy we were with you two and we had so much fun. We hope to stay in touch! Quick Snapshot of Services: - Sneak peek photos arrive in 24hrs (they're gorge) - Full Engagement/Wedding photos arrive about 4 weeks after event - Kasie limits her bookings for this reason...so she can spend time editing without rushing which allows for quick turnaround.

Jose Almeida Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Effort, PA

Weddings are celebrations that are full of emotion and romance all in a highly dynamic environment. Wedding photographs are timeless and irreplaceable so as a photographer, I feel I have a great responsibility at hand. I try my best to work with clients on their needs, provide flexible coverage hours and I work within their budgets. I am drawn to those unguarded candid moments. I attempt to portray an artistic feel that reveals feelings of emotion onto the viewer. Be it a gaze, a beaming smile, tears of joy or a blurred image to depict movement my goal is communication. It is these moments along with many others I feel should be captured.

Jose is fantastic! He has so much experience and very professional. Before our wedding day, he always had quick and clear communication. We loved his artistic eye and dramatic style of photography. He knows how to give good direction for those that aren’t used to posing or being photographed, and was always looking for the next shot. He definitely lets you be you and can still get amazing shots. We were surprised at how quickly we got to preview our gallery. After the wedding day, I realized that there was so much I didn’t get to document personally to remember the details from that day. But after seeing some of the shots, Jose had made me so happy to see how much he documented from the day! I highly recommend Jose :)

We were so pleased with OLAS and glad we hired them for our wedding. By far one of the easiest vendors we worked with. They were prepared, communicative, and always available for questions. We were impressed from the beginning with their clear communication and responsiveness and we stay impressed after seeing the end result. We hired OLAS for photography and videography. Both did an amazing job and we were so happy with the results. OLAS also took the time to understand our needs and the unique cultural components of our ceremony (Indian Catholic ceremony) that needed attention. Highly recommend this company for your wedding. We were also so happy with the video quality - it was like watching a movie!

Awarded Best of Zola
When Joe and I were looking for our wedding photographer, we wanted someone whose photography used natural light and whose subjects seemed at ease. We also wanted someone who would make sure our awkward selves felt comfortable in front of the camera. Gabriella checked all of our boxes. From our first email communication, Gabriella exuded joy and kindness. These traits matched the essence of her photos as well. She was extremely flexible when our schedules forced us to change our wedding date early on. She went above and beyond to attend an open house at our venue to meet us in person and to gain a sense of where our reception would be. When it came time for our engagement photos, Gabriella immediately put Joe and I at ease in front of the camera by playing great music and incorporating some amazing prompts that resulted in amazing photos. Joe and I cannot recommend Gabriella enough! Not only is she incredibly professional, but she is extremely talented in her vision for photos and getting her couples to ignore the camera and be their authentic selves. We are overjoyed with the final results of our wedding photos and we are so grateful we chose Gabriella to be our photographer!

Deeply passionate about couples celebrating their love their way, Daniela advocates for wedding days that feel true to who you are—filled with what brings you joy, and free of anything that doesn’t. She honed her craft at the San Francisco Art Institute, where she developed a distinctive style that merges fine-art composition with a candid, documentary approach. The result? Honest, artful imagery that tells your story exactly as it felt.

Awarded Best of Zola
We can’t say enough wonderful things about Dani, the experience of working with her, and the quality of her photos! We were very overwhelmed at the start of the planning process because we knew we didn’t want traditional wedding photos- both in style and in the time commitment for our day. We wanted to spend the entire day with our guests and each other, not an hour doing portraits and group photos. We also did not want thousands of photos back that we would never do anything with. We just wanted a few hundred high quality photos we loved. Dani was so understanding and innovative in coming up with a customized plan for us! She shot our wedding “documentary style” and ENTIRELY ON FILM!! She captured mostly unposed action shots, while still paying attention to the few specific shots we wanted. We spent no more than 15 minutes actually doing portraits and family photos (which all came out perfectly), and the rest of the wedding, Dani was somehow completely unobtrusive but still captured everything we wanted - the unadulterated energy and vibe of our day! It was so impressive and I’m sure extremely difficult for her; we were so appreciative that she came up with the creative plan for us and executed it so perfectly! She used 3 or 4 different styles of film camera AND A DRONE, and the resulting photos were everything we could want: romantic, classic, naturally lit, warm, sweeping, authentic, lush, energized and FUN! We love every photo and we loved even more the way she fit seamlessly into our day. She was also fantastic to communicate with; multiple meetings, clear emails, understanding, personal and kind. We would book her again in a heartbeat and everyone who sees the photos of our day asks us how we found someone so unworthy and talented! Thank you Dani!!!

We are Mark & Brittany Edman, NJ based wedding team. Mark created “This Insane Idea” with the vision that anything is possible. As your lead shooter, he had a passion for photography his entire life, capturing moments around him in the most authentic ways until one day Brittany told him “go full time”, it was insane. He fell in love with wedding photography and the emotion it brought out for everyone involved. Coming home so happy with unique stories and photos from all over the state, Brittany knew she needed to join him on wedding days. Having a background in hospitality for 20 years Brittany began coordinating the day alongside Mark.

From the very first conversation, we knew we had found the perfect photographers with Mark and his team. Their communication was super responsive, and they were incredibly organized throughout the entire planning process, making it a seamless experience. The engagement shoot and wedding day photos were exactly what we were looking for - their professional, energetic approach captured all the special moments beautifully. They blended in seamlessly during our wedding day, allowing us to just enjoy the experience while they got the shots we'll treasure forever. We couldn't be happier with the stunning photos and how they contributed to making our day so special.

Thank you for visiting & CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR ENGAGEMENT!!! We are based in the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania area but travel all over for weddings. Our furthest yet was Vermont! Our bright, colorful & crisp photography style provides our clients with timeless images that will be forever cherished. When I am not working, I enjoy drinking wine, trying new breweries, traveling to the New Jersey shore with my husband, our baby boy born in February 2024 & family, watching Harry Potter for the millionth time, & cuddling with our mini schnauzer.

As an artist, so much of my wedding was DIY and done by friends and family. However, this also means that I know the value of good photography and I knew it was the one aspect of our wedding that was worth getting the best quality possible. Andrea was worth every penny and I couldn't be happier with the resulting photos and my experience working with her (and her assistant, Cecilia) on our wedding day! Leading up to my wedding, my now-husband and I began to joke that she was our unofficial wedding planner, given she was so much more on top of details than we were. She showed so much care around complex family dynamics and the overall diversity of our community, making sure that everyone was comfortable working with her. She was clear, communicative, and was so consistent and present leading up to, the day of, and following our wedding. Her photos were bright, joyful and colorful, without appearing over-edited, airbrushed, or unnatural. I'm a very critical person, and I would not change a thing about my experience with Andrea. I'll truly cherish the memories that she captured for forever.

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.

From our very first email exchange to the moment we received our photos, every step of working with Rich was an incredible experience. He always responded quickly, answered every question with patience, and offered thoughtful suggestions I hadn’t even considered. His preparation before the wedding gave us confidence that everything would run smoothly, and it truly did. Richard was exceptionally professional, respectful, kind, and understanding. On our wedding day, he brought a sense of calm amid the chaos. He blended seamlessly into the flow of events—always present when needed, but never intrusive—and coordinated effortlessly with our families, bridal party, and other vendors. He was also incredibly organized with the shots we needed, keeping us on track without ever making us feel rushed. Richard delivered our full gallery exactly one month after our wedding and just before Thanksgiving so we could share the photos with our families over the holiday. It meant so much to us and we were thrilled to receive our pictures so quickly. Looking through the gallery felt like reliving the entire day, moment by moment. He captured the vibe and essence of our wedding perfectly. I especially appreciated his ideas and direction, and his artistic eye genuinely blew us away. He noticed angles, lighting, and emotional moments, capturing everything from the big highlights to the smallest in-between moments. The pictures he took of us, our families, and our venue were stunning—so much so that multiple friends texted us saying the photos looked like they belonged in Vogue. That is entirely to Richard’s credit. Choosing Richard as our wedding photographer was, without question, one of the best decisions I made in the entire wedding process. I am endlessly grateful to have these photos to cherish forever. Choose Rich as your wedding photographer - you will not regret it!!!!
