Kozmo Photography

  • Serves Essex, NY

Hello ! first and foremost, congratulations on your engagement as you embark on this new chapter of your lives. My name is Kevin and I started the ground work Kozmo Photography back in 2014. My goal has always been to capture the uniqueness of each and every couple on the biggest day of their journey together. It is therefore my belief that a great wedding photographer must be able to capture the big and small details throughout the day with minimal interference while being keenly aware of the surrounding conditions. This is my promise as I strive to deliver to each and every couple the wedding photos they deserve.

“My husband and I were both a little nervous about getting our photos taken. Kevin's package included an engagement shoot which was so helpful to break the ice and get us comfortable with the pictures and with Kevin. He is so down to earth, friendly, and gave great guidance and support! He is so responsive and I love how quickly he shares previews of the pictures. On the day of the wedding, it honestly felt like Kevin was part of the family. I've LOVED the pictures we've seen and would hire him for any pictures we have going forward. Thank you, Kevin!!!”

“Thomas and his team were wonderful for our wedding in December! Right from the start he was super helpful to give us all the information and didn't sugar coat anything. I will say I was a little suspicious at first when he said "I can do any style you want" I know some photographers only stick to certain styles. And with our wedding being in Sturbridge MA I was expecting a travel fee. But he wanted us to make sure that he was a professional, he keeps things fair all across the board. Thomas is also super quick when it comes to messaging! If I had any questions he would respond rather quickly. He surpassed my expectations with how accommodating him and his team were when working with us, even changing our minds about packages and addon's only a couple weeks out. On the actually day of the wedding, Thomas and his team were truly our hype men! Even when I was getting ready with my bridesmaids he was in on all of our jokes and making us laugh. While I was getting ready, I heard that the groomsmen and my husband were having the best time getting all the group photos of them. I can not recommend this team enough!”

“Our wedding photos were one of the more important decisions for me and I knew right away after looking at Erin’s portfolio that he was the photographer for me. My husband was not excited for this part of our wedding but he knew how important it was to me. He then proceeded to tell me three times during our wedding and multiple times since how relaxed he felt and how much fun he had- especially during our first look photos! Our pictures were returned promptly and are stunning!! I highly recommend him!!”

Creativity has played a role in my life ever since I was a little girl. I grew up in upstate NY loving the outdoors and being close to the mountains! Although I loved where I grew up, when I graduated high school I decided to move South to Georgia to pursue a degree. While studying Fine Arts at the Savannah College of Art and Design, I fell in love with photography. I received my B.F.A in photography and then moved back home to NY where I became busy photographing weddings.

“We had the absolute best experience working with Meghan for our engagement and wedding photos! She was so flexible, easygoing, fun, and helpful throughout the entire process. She truly went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and relaxed in front of the camera, and she made the whole experience so enjoyable. Meghan was incredibly friendly, caring, and professional, and you could tell that she genuinely wanted us to have the best experience possible. We received our engagement photos back so quickly, and we absolutely love them! We can’t wait to see the photos from our wedding day and know that Meghan will capture all of the special moments beautifully. We are so grateful we found Meghan and would recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer. We already can’t wait to have her capture our future maternity and family photos!”

“We got married in November of 2025 and after picking a venue, we knew our next biggest task was to chose our wedding photographer. For us as a couple photography/videography was going to be the most important vendor for this day. After our first meeting with Jordan, we both felt comfortable and a connection with him. He reviewed his work with us and we knew we wanted to work with him. During this whole process Jordan was professional and so easy to get along with. He responded to emails in a timely fashion and was always willing to jump on a zoom call if we had any questions or wanted to touch base. He was understanding, kind, and on board with all our needs. He was able to capture all our "must have" photos, as well as some great candid ones. His photography style is true color and we loved his composition on his photos. Everyone at our wedding even came up and told us throughout the day how impressed they were with our photography team. Our parents loved the team so much and keep complementing them and the photos still to this day. We cannot expressed enough how much pictures mean to us. We look at the collection Jordan has sent over and are instantly brought back to the day. Jordan captured the energy, the special moments, and the spirit. All of our hard work and love shined through in every picture. We are so happy to have trusted Jordan and his team to be the ones to capture them. We cannot recommend him enough. We sincerely appreciate everything he has done for us during our wedding planning, during our wedding, and all the communication and working with us after the wedding. Out of all your wedding vendors your photographer is the one you work with the most and I would work with Jordan again in a heartbeat.”

Hi, I’m Makenzie! I’m the photographer behind Makenzie Leigh Photography, and I recently relocated from Alaska to Northern New York. With a BFA in Photography and roots in the fine arts, my work is nostalgic, film-inspired, whimsical and full of feeling. I’m especially drawn to intimate and unconventional weddings that prioritize connection and feel true to the people at the center of them. My approach is rooted in honest storytelling, the beautifully imperfect moments in between, and creating photographs that feel like your memories rather than someone else’s Pinterest board.

I'll be your personal cheerleader and the third wheel you never knew you needed! You can bet I'll be saying "PERFECT" more times than you can count. And honestly, I might even add an extra dramatic gasp or two. Get ready for a fun, stress free experience filled with laughs, high fives, and lots of "PERFECT" moments that will have you smiling for years to come.

“I seriously cannot say enough good things about Nichole and how perfect she is. Not only is she phenomenal at her job- providing outstanding and breathtaking pictures- but she is a phenomenal PERSON. We had Nichole for our engagement pictures which turned out beautifully, so we had the bar set high and she somehow exceeded those expectations!! She ensured things were moving seamlessly at my wedding (outside of her job scope and did that multiple times without prompting because she’s just a team player) and ensured I was hydrated, fed, and that my bridezilla wasn’t coming out (and it didn’t because of her). She went above and beyond to ensure my husband and I were having a great time on our day and, honestly, just looked out for us because she genuinely cares. She also took such good care of my son, my beagle. Also, my husband and I can sometimes get awkward when pictures are being taken of us, but Nichole is so warm and personable that we relaxed right away, and it almost felt like we were just hanging out with a good friend. Those pictures, both from our engagement session and our wedding, came out beautifully. We recently received sneak peeks and they knocked us off our feet. We cannot wait to see more! We will be using her in the future without question for all of our special events. Do not hesitate- book Nichole. She IS the best out there.”

Photography for people who dread being photographed. With 15+ years specializing in camera-shy couples, I've learned that your wedding is not a generic fantasy from the interne, it's a legacy. The industry pushes couples to perform for the camera, but when you already feel awkward being photographed, that pressure can erase the real, unscripted story of your people. My approach is built for humans who hate being photographed. I create an experience that melts stiffness and anxiety so the raw, honest truth of your connection shows up and the story of everyone who matters is protected.

“Cass is seriously AMAZING! We did our engagement, rehearsal and wedding photos with her and we couldn’t have asked for better pictures, we were blown away. In addition to the great photos, Cass is the absolute best to work with. Prior to the wedding, she went above and beyond to make me feel supported with all my questions and requests. I knew we were in great hands after our engagement shoot but she didn’t stop proving that the entire duration of the time leading up to our wedding. She also went out of her way by hiking with us to our first look location and by working non-stop with us to get the perfect shots of our pup. She is so fun and has a great way of making everyone feel comfortable. I had members of both the bridal party and wedding guests approach me and express how much they loved Cass. Do yourself a favor and book Cass for your next shoot, she definitely exceeded our expectations and is so fun to work with!”

Hey, I’m Amy ! I’m a wedding photographer who is committed to bringing joy and energy to your big day! My style lends itself towards a more editorial feel. I want to capture the moments, the feelings, not just the image.

“From the moment we worked with Amy, we knew we had chosen the right photographer for such an important and intimate moment in our lives. Amy is incredibly personable, talented, and genuinely dedicated to her work. What stood out to us most was her commitment to being there for our elopement day. Even while navigating an unexpected personal matter on her end, she kept us informed, showed up for us, and was completely present throughout our time together. She never made us feel rushed or as though her attention was anywhere other than on capturing our day, and that meant so much to us. She gave us direction when we needed it while still allowing everything to feel natural and authentic. She took her time, listened to the mood and vision I wanted for our photos, and truly went with the feeling of the day rather than making everything feel overly posed. Our friends who joined us as witnesses were equally impressed by Amy, her professionalism, and the way she carried herself throughout the entire experience. And the photography itself? Absolutely beautiful. Our photos feel timeless, intimate, and true to us. Amy has a creative eye and a genuine talent for capturing moments in a way that feels effortless. I also strongly believe in supporting small businesses and independent creatives who pour their heart into what they do, and you can truly feel that passion when working with Amy. Her artistry, dedication, and personal approach made our experience feel so much more meaningful. I would absolutely recommend Amy to anyone looking for a photographer who is talented, personable, creative, and truly invested in the people she works with. She is absolutely someone I will keep saved in my phone for future occasions, and I already look forward to working with her again. Thank you, Amy, for showing up for us, taking your time with us, and making such an important moment feel completely seamless and natural. We are so grateful we chose you.”

I'm here to serve + empower all the introverted, awkward in-front-of-the-lens, adventure(ish) couples who want to have an authentic, non-traditional wedding experience across upstate and northern New York.

I’m your go-to gal when you decide to take control of your wedding day.

“Hiring Donna was the best wedding decision we made! She's insanely talented, works at a ridiculously fast pace, and was so dialed in on the day, getting every important shot, that you'd think we had 2 photographers by looking at our gallery. As if that wasn't enough already, she's incredibly supportive of her couples by being queer-inclusive and super accommodating. She was such a hit at our wedding that two guests are already determined to hire Donna for their own weddings (copycats!).”

“The Talented Photographer was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From the very first interaction, Alec's communication style was fun, professional, and incredibly personable. He had a true passion for his craft that shone through in every interaction. The quality of Alec's work was absolutely stunning - we got a wonderful variety of candids, formal shots, and editorial-style pictures that captured all the special moments of our day. Alec has an incredible eye for the right shots, and the final photos are absolutely gorgeous. Despite a complicated location schedule that I was worried about, Alec made the whole day seamless, traveling to over 4 different spots to ensure we got all the groupings and special shots we wanted. Alec truly went above and beyond, and we had such a great time working with him. I'm obsessed with the pictures and would give him an 11/10 rating!”

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.

“Working with Emma Cleary and her team was nothing short of a dream. Emma took the time to get to know my husband and I as we began the wedding planning process, and we were in incredible hands day-of. Her wonderful photographer, Asya, took our engagement photos and also took the photos for the big day. It was a pleasure working with Emma and her team.”

“Angel and I booked Ihor for our engagement session in Central Park and had a wonderful experience. Ihor provided prompt and timely responses and thoughtfully answered all of our questions prior to booking, which made our decision that much easier. My fiancé is Deaf and Ihor made sure to accommodate his instructions to be Deaf friendly by gesturing and positioning us in the right way. In addition to the great attention to detail we received our photos earlier than anticipated which was a great surprise for us! Overall, we had a wonderful experience and would recommend him to any other couple that's looking to have their special days captured.”
