Brooklyn, NY

  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Essex, CT

Hello and welcome! My name is Tatiana and I'm the girl from Brooklyn but I was born in raised in Siberia, Russia. Since I was teenager I was taken photographs of every day moments and small happenings in my life. And I never knew that taking photographs and creating memories for other people will become my dream job! I am a traveller, adventurer, dog lover and of course wedding and elopement photographer in NYC and beyond! And let me tell you I absolutely love weddings! It's a tremendous honor to witness and document the love. I always shed a tear at the ceremonies.

I highly recommend Tati as your wedding photographer! I will be talking forever about the great job she did at my and my partners wedding! She made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera, and we are very camera shy people. Her energy calms you down right away and makes you relax and enjoy day along the way. She showed us a few photos and Gosh! They were stunning! Tati captured the moments we even didn’t know were happening! Working with her was effortless and our gallery exceeded our expectations! Can’t recommend her enough!

Hiya, I am Vital (pronounces Vee-tal), and I am a 20 something guy with a camera in my hands and a cheerful smile. I have been a wedding photographer since 2016, and every year I fall even more in love with my job. My fiancee and I have a dog and a cat. We love to travel domestically and abroad, and I can't imagine life without photos. I enjoy reading or listening to books, especially novels and biographies. Alpine climbing, backpacking, and road-tripping are among my hobbies too. There is more to my life story on my website :)

Vital was such a breath of fresh air on our wedding day. He made us, our loved ones, and the whole crowd feel comfortable, happy, calm, and understood. He took the time to hear about our vision a few times before the day-of and really really delivered in his final product. He brought our moments to life in such an artistic and beautiful way. I cannot imagine having a better experience. His professionalism, kindness, communication, and artistic strength are truly unmatched. Thank you forever Vital!

Love, Lucy Photography

5.0

Beacon, NY
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Essex, CT

Two Upper West Siders. Twenty blocks apart. How had we not crossed paths before? Or did we? Well, after finally matching on Hinge we made that happen and the rest is history! We have combined families and now as a family of 7 (three dogs, two cats) we have become an unstoppable force. We both share the same passion for photography, capturing the beauty all around us and making magic happen. Our dog Lucy, embodies love, kindness and poise. We couldn’t imagine naming our business after anyone but her. That’s how Love, Lucy Photography came to be.

Bethany and Raquel are artists of the finest caliber and they will deliver above and beyond your expectations. I cannot stress this to you enough: Book them immediately! They excel at both pieces of the wedding photographer's role: the experience of having them photograph the event, and the photos they deliver at the end. On your wedding day: They of course will follow your requested shoot list, portraits of family, and whatever else you want to prioritize for your wedding day. *But the real magic they deliver is that everyone forgets they are there.* Your family doesn't feel like they're being stalked by paparazzi or in a never ending staged photo shoot. I don't know how they do it, they didn't meet anyone in my family before our wedding, but every photo they delivered was an authentic reflection of that person and the moment. Nothing felt strained, staged, or uncomfortable for the subjects. Several of my family members, including my husband, don't love being photographed, and they were both so sensitive to that without losing anything important. They melt into the background and capture the smallest, lovely moments you didn't even know were happening. When they deliver the photos: The story of our wedding was told brilliantly in the first set of preview photos, which they delivered very quickly after the wedding, and even more so when we saw the full set of photos and the album. They are very responsive and delivered the shots exactly on the promised timeline and of course answered every single question we could have had along the way. They also helped us create a timeline for the day which kept everything on track and as planned which helped keep my head on straight! They weave the narrative structure beautifully - the wedding album they delivered (after very politely waiting for a long time for me to mark my favorites) is truly a work of art. 10/10 recommend to a friend!

I can’t explain how happy I am with Jenni’s work! I didn’t only love the results but I really appreciate how much she helped during the ceremony, especially by setting the livestream up so my family and friends from Brazil could watch this special moment. They also made us feel comfortable in front of the cameras, since we both are a little awkward in front of cameras haha Can’t forget to mention how nice and fun they were with everyone and this is very special to me! Thank you for making us look so hot on the pictures hahaha we love and appreciate your work!

Wayne was INCREDIBLE!! He's been to our property (Hyatt Regency Boston Harbor) for a handful of weddings this season and each time I'm relieved to see him. His experience and creativity is unique, playful and beautiful. Our couples are always so pleased with the photos and overall the experience of their big day when it comes to LoveDays. One wedding in particular (Ferrari Benotti Wedding) had incredible photos from downtown Boston. Many of those photos were highlighted in the @Onlybos Instagram and we had couples request Wayne's information from it. Incredible photos and great experience, 10/10 recommend.

Hiring a Wedding Photographer is tough—I get it. You need someone who is experienced and professional enough to handle any situation. This could be a sudden downpour on your wedding day or seamlessly diffusing tense moments between separated parents during family portraits. Most importantly, they do this with grace, oftentimes without you even noticing. More importantly than the behind the scenes things, a great Wedding Photographer will handle the grandparents with charm and class, and be a little goofy with the kids to create timeless and authentic portraits of your most cherished people.

My husband and I don’t even know where to start this review. Simply put, Chris is incredible. He is a precise, detail oriented, artist who captures amazing moments and memories in his photography. Trust us, you’re going to want him as your photographer. We were SO blessed to have him capture our wedding. 10/10, he has our highest recommendation!

For as long as I can remember I have always loved to create. My passion for photography started when I was a teen. As I honed in on my craft I began to photograph on a more professional level right out of high school, but stepped away for academic pursuits. After completing both a bachelors and master's degree in Anthropology, I came full circle, determining that a career in doing something creative was where my heart lies. Whether it is your wedding, or any other special moment in your life, I cherish the opportunity to document it in a way that highlights the artistic elements, while still capturing an authenticness that is uniquely you.

Cannot say enough good things!! Being the awkward person I am in front of the camera, especially while I am styling hair, it's difficult to get decent photos of myself! Every photo Mallory has ever taken of me was literally perfect. She made sure to get my "good angles" and everything lol She's also super fun and creative which is a majorrrrr plus!!!

  • Starts at $2,750
  • Serves Essex, CT

I shot my first wedding in 2004, and from that moment on, I was hooked! It's an honor to witness and capture such an important moment in the lives of my couples. Before specializing in weddings, I focused on fine art and night photography. I earned a BFA degree in studio art from the University of Notre Dame (Go Irish!), and a MFA degree in imaging arts/photography from Rochester Institute of Technology. I taught black and white, digital, alternative process and studio photography at the high school, university and adult education levels. I love both the planned events and the unintentional, quiet moments that make a wedding unique!

Kristin was absolutely amazing to work with. We found her through our venue, Red Lion Inn, and let me just say- she didn’t disappoint. She worked with us during our engagement pictures to capture our dogs in all their craziness. When it came to the wedding planning, she went above and beyond to add on a videographer at the last minute to record the ceremony when we found out my grandmother wouldn’t be able to attend. Her turnaround for video and photos was unbelievably fast- we got the videos three days after the wedding and our full gallery within two weeks. The photos captured the day perfectly, and we will cherish them forever. Thank you for everything Kristin!

New York, NY
  • Photojournalistic style

I found my love for photography in a high school dark room, and I have continued to follow that passion to find myself today working as a hybrid photographer in both Film and Digital. I strive not to just take pictures, but to capture candid emotions and capture them in a beautiful way. My photography is personal and intimate. My approach is a mixture of fine art and documentary, I try to capture your moments and day as it happened but highlighting the special details and taking advantage of the best lighting. As a lover of history I love capturing personal and family histories that surround weddings.

Awarded Best of Zola
Just a few minutes into our first conversation with Judson, we knew she was our wedding photographer. She was great to work with — very easy-going, fun and the utmost professional who has a fantastic eye and the patience of a saint for our ... always sort of "extra" family — and dog, Kona, who refused to cooperate with most pictures haha. My husband and I normally shy away from being in front of the camera, but with Judson's energy and personality, our discomfort quickly melted away, and we could just focus on having the best day of our lives. She even got us to dance atop one of the hills on Roosevelt Island, which ended up being some of our favorite pics! By the end of the night, it was like Judson had been part of our family forever. I know she'd be a great addition to your family and wedding, too. We cannot recommend her enough! She really listens to what you want and delivers the most beautiful memories.

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 to using 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.

Hi! I'm Aren, when trusted to tell your story through my lens, I take a photojournalistic approach. I value capturing the moments as they are happening on your big day, rather than making your wedding day into a "photoshoot". Real, raw, + authentic love is what I am here to capture. Minimalistic photography really draws my eye, never over complicating what's really happening in front of us, and finding the beauty in the simple, in-between, moments.

Working with Aren was amazing. She made us feel comfortable in front of the camera immediately, and captured us perfectly. We were so impressed with the quality of her shots and her prompt delivery of our gallery!

At every wedding, I'm constantly alert to the small moments that make a day unique: a father's kiss, an heirloom kerchief, a ring bearer getting licked by the groom's dog. I see beauty everywhere on a wedding day. I spend the entire day smiling. My face usually hurts on my drive home ;)! Although I'm primarily photojournalistic in style, I know how to take charge for posed portraits. I've been a photographer full-time for over ten years, and I can be quick and efficient for group shots, so you can get back to your party! I also love sneaking you two away for some lovely portraits when the light is perfect.

Stephanie is a wonderful photographer. From the first moment I contacted her to receiving my pictures and Wedding book, I had a such a wonderful experience. Stephanie has an ability like no other. Her presence is one that brings you a calmness, which on your wedding day you will appreciate! When I look at my wedding pictures, I can still smell the fragrance of the food we ate, the emotions I was feeling, and the way the sun and air felt on my face. Stephanie did that. She captured all those little things that are so important and magical. If my house had more walls they would be filled with her photographs.

Hi there! I'm Ashley! I'm a go with the flow, free-spirited human so I find connecting with my clients rather easily. I'm not your average photographer ..... I do things a little differently, but that's what makes the photoshoots with me so unique and special. I like to capture the in-between moments, the heart-pounding, can't live without your love moments. I am here to be your biggest hype woman and professional third wheel! I focus on preserving the raw emotion and intimate moments rather than creating extremely posed and formal shots.

Born and raised in Maine, I dream of one day retiring there by the sea, like a real life Miss Rumphius. But until then, I live just outside of Boston with my husband and our three cats. I'm married to my high school sweetheart, but we waited more than a decade before saying our own vows. Sometimes (okay, often) I eat cake for breakfast, so you can always count on me to help taste test yours. If I'm not photographing people in love, I'm probably enjoying a glass (bottle) of champagne on the couch or planning my next adventure. I believe everything is better by the ocean and you should never wait to explore the world.

As a wedding planner, I work with a lot of photographers, and Kendra remains one of my all-time favorites to know and work with. She is organized and professional, puts all of her couples at ease, and above all else, her work is stunning. The way she captures color, emotion, and details - plus all of the candid moments - is so special and can be hard to come by! I recommend Kendra to all of my couples, and everyone that knows her feels an immediate connection. She's one of those people that feels like an old friend right away, and is so good at making everyone around her feel comfortable and supported. I'd highly recommend hiring Kendra as your wedding photographer!

At Life Through a Shutter Photography, our goal is to preserve memories and emotions that will last a lifetime. We approach our work with empathy, care and attention to detail, ensuring that each client has a personal and enjoyable experience. Sure, looks are important... I dig deeper than just what appears on the outside, I find those raw emotions and capture the connection in real time. What matters most when you look back at an image is being able to relive that emotion, what you felt in that exact moment, and hang on to that feeling. That's the real reason why photos last a lifetime and say a million words. Emotion!

I would recommend and use Alysha over and over ! She photographed both my private wedding and reception. Went above and beyond. And couldn’t be more happier. Can’t wait to need her services again.

He was fun to be around (which is key since you will be together for your entire wedding day), his photos were incredible, and he delivered them SO quickly (I have friends who got married earlier who are still waiting on their photos, and it is so fun to get them back when you are still on the wedding high!). We had a great experience with our engagement session as well. Great guy and great photographer!

Emma Cleary Photo and Video

New York, NY
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Essex, CT

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.

I was referred to Emma Cleary via a gf who had just had her wedding shot and said she did great work so I was happy to get a glowing referral while trying to source vendors. Emma was a godsend for me, because my wedding had so much that I wanted to cover, with so many moving pieces (7 musical acts, 20 performers, etc.) at so many different locations (a memorial area for first look, then over to a Park for ceremony, then a boat to an Island for the reception) via different modes of transportation (car, ferry, boat, 2nd line parade) over multiple nights (we shot both Friday -Sunday am) but her and her team came along for the entire ride and nailed it and I got AMAZING photos for every part. The lead photographer was so on it (which we needed bc we were on such a tight schedule) and the other photographers were also great and told us jokes which helped me actually get genuine smiles and helped so much during the stressful first look. My veil blew away during my photos (before the ceremony, sigh) and they were there trying to climb the tree to get it (but it was way too high up!) but A+ for effort. And the best part was that she actually SAVED my wedding... we had planned on getting married next to a carousel inside a public park, and the carousel party coordinator didn't file the required permit we needed so a hour before I walked down the aisle the park rangers came in and forced the setup/guests out. Emma knew the owner of a nearby restaurant where she had shot wedding photos before and asked the owner if we could use in front of his restaurant (facing the water) as a ceremony site. If that had not happened then who knows where I would have gotten married. She worked with my wedding planner and my guests (and us too!) had a place to have our ceremony last second... she was a total life saver during such a stressful and important moment. And then at the end once we received the photos, my favorite part was the light editing which was just the right amount, not too fake, so was perfect. Some of the photos dont even look like we are in a city which I just loved loved loved and had said I wanted, and then when we wanted city or actions shots she got those too so we had options of everything we did in every way. There is one shot where she got the end of our first dance and it looks like we are in a Broadway play! Anyways, as you could tell I couldnt have recommended any more bc she has so many years of experience it helped us with not only capturing the moments perfectly, and in a perfect way, it also helped us bc she knows all the wedding venues and wedding industry people and I never realized how much that plays a part in booking vendors.

I started photographing weddings in 2017. I originally got my first camera to photograph landscapes- National Parks specifically. But the second the camera was in my hands, I was immediately drawn to photographing connections between people. Since that moment I haven't hesitated while my heart led me in the direction of wedding and elopement photography! I love documenting the in-between, unprompted moments; the subtle way your partner glances over at you with a side smile when you're not paying attention, the groom fiddling with his new ring, and the uncontrollable laughter when you're melting into each other during your couple's photos.

Tamara's work speaks for itself. She is an incredibly talented photographer and clearly loves her job. Beyond that, Tamara is kind, professional, and so amiable that she instantly makes you feel like a friend!

We hired Danny to take our engagement photos and we couldn't be any happier with how they turned out. Danny's eye is unmatched. We took the pictures on Danny's referral at beautiful Rockland Lake State Park around sunset. His knowledge & usage of natural lighting was truly impressive. Danny's communication throughout the shoot was flawless; he knew what to say and how to say it to catch the most amazing photos. We're beyond excited to have him shoot our wedding next September in Lake Placid, NY!

Previews came the next day and throughout the week after our wedding and we were speechless!

Hi, Thanks for reading! Here's my photography short story: 2017, after 13 years of teaching, I said goodbye to the classroom and pursued Olympic weightlifting photography- my company was Everyday Lifters. Shortly after, I launched my wedding business. The Long Version: Weightlifting has taken me to places like Turkmenistan, Germany, & across the country! The weightlifters started getting married, and along the way, I received training to advocate for diverse bodies as a photographer. During this time of transition, I started taking documenting courses through the International Center of Photography and work on documenting local stories.

Viviana is kind, charismatic, and warm on top of being a professional with a wonderful eye. She made our engagement photos and wedding photos magical. It rained on our big day and she took it in stride and created magical ethereal images I will treasure for forever. She is organized, easy to work with, and during the chaos of planning a wedding working with her will be an oasis

Hi! I'm Kayla, owner and lead photographer at Kayla Rice Photography. I grew up in Southern Vermont and began my venture into the world of professional photography at Syracuse University where I earned my B.S. in Photojournalism. From there, I had careers in newspaper photography and major league baseball before landing where I am today.

Awarded Best of Zola
Kayla was the photographer at our wedding in December of 2018 and we trusted her to be the sole professional source of visual documentation since we opted to forgo a videographer, etc. I was familiar with Kayla's abilities in multiple disciplines as well as her previous work at social events like ours. It was obvious that she possesses a true gift for both standard and unique photographic approaches. Beyond the artistic talent, Kayla has the ideal personality for personal and meaningful lifetime events. She listens and remembers every detail, reads a room and crowd skillfully, and puts herself in almost unnoticeable positions while ensuring that she gets every shot from every angle. For us, with a very small wedding venue that had some unusual layout features, Kayla adapted and used the space to her advantage in a way that demonstrated her substantial ability to be in just the right place at just the right time. She was also a zero-stress and calming presence on what is unavoidably a stressful (and wonderful!) day for a bride and groom - she communicated her few informational needs clearly and worked perfectly with our day-of wedding planner. What sticks out most is her work during the wedding ceremony itself. In a small and very non-traditional space, she found all the right angles with some VERY creative positioning while remaining completely hidden from all in attendance. Her natural and developed skill was obvious throughout the night. Her subsequent work on our beautiful photo album only cemented our complete and total satisfaction with her work on every level. We simply can't imagine a more positive overall experience. She is an artist and a professional in equal measures and would be a massive asset to an event of any size or type.

Hi there! My name is Chris Randall. I'm a wedding photographer based in New Haven, Connecticut. I've been photographing weddings for twelve years and have photographed over 100 weddings. I absolutely love capturing the magic that exists between two people on the biggest day of their lives! It’s a responsibility that I don’t take lightly and I see it as an honor.

Chris took photos of our wedding and we can't say enough great things about him. As you can tell from his website, the quality of the pictures he takes is outstanding. We loved how his pictures captured the essence of moments without resorting to excessive editing or effects. What you can't tell from his website is that Chris is great and easy to work with. He was responsive, suggested great locations for a photo shoot, adapted plans to stay on schedule, and was an overall calming presence. We also loved that Chris gave us full rights to our photos, meaning that we don't have to pay to download or print them. Overall very highly recommended!

Relive the moments as you experienced them. When it comes to your wedding, what are you most excited about? The ceremony? Dancing the night away with family and friends? Indulging in the emotion of the day? The photos are important so you can relive each memorable moment. But the moments are only memorable if you take the time to experience them in the first place. This way, you'll not only experience the moments of your wedding day - you'll remember them well. Who better to photograph your experiences than a husband and wife team who understands the importance of this day. And the moments that shape it.

Ishan and Preeti are incredible people and artists. So talented, creative, artistic, fun and affordable. No cheesy typical wedding photos here! Our pictures are one of a kind. For our engagement photos, Ishan and Preeti were willing to drive aroubd local towns and take photos at numerous locations that meant something special to us. They are so creative with light and texture and are daring to go anywhere. And then our wedding day..Oh My Goodness. I have never seen such beautiful photos. We got married in Montauk, NY and after our first look, we went out by the lighthouse and took photos over the bluffs. They are INCREDIBLE!!!!!!!!!! We got married at a yacht club and we had mentioned to Ishan how we would love a photo on a big yacht. He again rose to the occasion. We found friendly boat owners who let us board their yacht and Ishan got photos of us opening champagne and drone photos of us lying on the bow. He thinks on his feet and comes up with awesome photos in any circumstance. Ishan Fotografi really captured the highlights of the wedding perfectly. The photos were available by the time we were back from our honeymoon. We just received our album, which is not only breathtaking, but really tells the story of the wedding day.

Since starting wedding photography full-time 5 years ago, I’ve worked with countless couples to capture their proposals, engagements, weddings and elopements. My goal with every session or event is to leave with casually constructed as well as charming candid photos of my clients and to form a lifelong friendship along the way. Let’s talk!

We’ve had the pleasure of working with Reese for 3 different photo shoots! First, Reese was hired as our surprise photographer when my (then boyfriend) proposed to me on Shelter Island. Reese did an absolutely amazing job hiding out until the moment struck, and I didn’t realize she was even there capturing each precious moment until she finally popped out with the most genuine excitement! She made that day even more special, and having her take our photos for the next hour after saying “yes” was the perfect way to celebrate. We immediately hired her to shoot our engagement session to compile photos for our save the dates, invitations, and wedding website. She traveled into Manhattan for us and created the most fairytale and dreamlike photo shoot all around the most picturesque places in Central Park! Of course, Reese was also our wedding photographer and we can’t imagine that day without her. She is so creative, full of fun energy, thoughtful, organized, timely, and above all talented! Each and every photo she’s taken is instantly our favorite and we have already locked her down for another photo shoot for our anniversary. Shooting with Reese is like shooting with your best friend, and as soon as you meet her she becomes just that :).

I would describe my photography style as very laid back and natural. The little in between moments make for the best photos, and I’m not about capturing awkward prom poses and forced smiles. I want the real stuff - the stuff that’ll make you laugh till your cheeks hurt and will make your heart beat faster.

We barely even realized the were photographing/taking video of us during the reception which we loved, but we also just loved their presence. They were so much fun and added to the party, they were dancing while shooting and made everyone so happy and comfortable. Our guests still talk about them and how awesome they are! Our video is breathtaking, we are taken back to the day every time we watching and it always brings us to tears. The photos are incredible; we constantly look through our photos and love displaying them in our home to look at all the time. We have since referred several people to them because we would love everyone to have the same experience we had!

Shawnee was an unbelievable photographer and such a special part of our wedding weekend. From the moment we reached out to her to getting our pictures, she has been incredibly communicative, easy to work with, and deeply kind. She made us feel so at ease and taken care of at our Rehearsal Dinner and on our wedding day. She not only allowed us to be our fullest selves but also encouraged capturing us in ways that felt authentic and not stuck in expected wedding photos or gender roles. She captured our guests so beautifully too, particularly the kids who were in our wedding. Everyone's personalities shone through so wonderfully and the picture are absolutely stunning. We cannot believe how many and how incredible each and every photo is. We cannot recommend Shawnee enough!

When we are not working we are outdoors or sitting by the fire. We love traveling to places where the earth is at its greatest. Our superpower is that we know what you are thinking. lol. Our style is Honest, Emotional, Intuitive, and Real. We love traveling anywhere in the world, as long as we're together!

I have worked with Jacklyn & Chris for 2 years now and their professionalism and communication is the best I have ever encountered and don't get me started on their photography. I am blown away on their work every time I see a photo of theirs. Jacklyn has become a friend over the years but that doesn't take away from her level of professionalism and level of service she offers to our clients. I cannot recommend a better photographer for anyone I know. JAG Studios is amazing!!!

Par La Mer Photography

Newtown, CT

  • Starts at $4,350
  • Serves Essex, CT

Hello, I'm Tonya. I am a documentary wedding, boudoir & lifestyle photographer with an editorial approach based in Fairfield County, Connecticut. At the heart of my work, you will find authentic connection & composition, some of the most important things to me as an artist. I build on that with honest storytelling with a more editorial approach. My inspiration lies in authentic human connection & emotions, pockets of light, vintage film, movement, honest interactions, vibrant colors found in nature, fog after a rainfall. Finding beauty in the most ordinary things.

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I got married 11-14-21. I can't put into words how lucky we are to have found Tonya for our wedding. From the very start, we knew she was the right choice. She made us feel comfortable and even happy to be in front of the camera, which we were both so nervous about! She really understands how to make couples feel so special and beautiful. Every photo she takes has so much thought and emotion behind it. She will absolutely capture the real moments and give you so many beautiful photos to remember the day by. We are so excited to see our full gallery! Tonya is such a blessing and our day wouldn't have been the same without her.
