  • 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.

“From our first interaction, Kevin at Kozmo Photography was a joy to work with. His communication was clear, quick, and incredibly kind throughout the entire process. The quality of his work was truly exceptional - Kevin has a keen eye for detail and an intuitive sense of what will make for the most special, focused shots. On our wedding day, Kevin expertly captured all the most important moments between our loved ones without us even having to say a word of direction. I would never work with anyone else and I truly cannot recommend Kozmo Photography enough. Kevin made the day easy, fun, and had a clear vision of what he was looking for even when I didn't. I'm over the moon with the final photos and will cherish them forever.”

“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!”

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 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.”

“Jason and Danielle, the second shooter he brought along, are incredibly talented photographers. Whether it’s posed photos or candid shots, they do not disappoint. Jason is like no other. When I say he became part of our family, I’m not joking. As a bride and groom, you get overwhelmed by all the love and the desire to care for everyone who came to celebrate your love. We didn’t fully realize what we were getting with Jason. What we got was an extension of us. He came in with so much love and joy, caring for each and every one of us. We wanted him to capture all three days because I, the bride, am such a memory hoarder. But truly, my favorite memory is the one that will shine through all these photos which is the love in the man behind them. Thank you, Jason. Thank you. We love you!!!”

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.

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.

“Richard was absolutely incredible and not only a highlight, but a key part of why our day was so perfect. He was so easy to work with, kept our day peaceful and on schedule, and provided our incredible photos so quickly including many previews within 24 hours!! On the big day, he was calm and attentive, and really settled any anxious energy I was feeling. He arrived early and beyond prepared. He took all the shots I asked, and others I didn’t even know I needed. We opted into the second photographer and were so happy with the extra coverage and support we received from Mikaela! We did our vows privately and even though Richard shooting it really did feel like it was just us. Richard also was a huge help corralling family members and keeping us on schedule. He had fun with us on the dance floor and kept pictures moving so we really got to enjoy our wedding! Mikeala was also great at always rearranging my dress/train to fall perfectly for every single family portrait! We really couldn’t have done our day successfully without Richard and Mikeala! Almost more importantly, Richard’s support and organization before our wedding day was unmatched. We did engagement photos at our apartment and in Central Park that we used for our Save the Dates and I couldn’t be more thrilled with how they came out. We didn’t have a wedding planner/coordinator so Richard was instrumental in creating our timeline and then making sure everything stayed on schedule! Can’t wait to use Richard again for family photos sometime in the future!! :)”

“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.”

“He's THE BEST, don't think twice, just hire him. He is super professional, always answered our questions about the shooting quickly, even on weekends, arrived at the photo location ahead of schedule, and was extremely friendly. He worked a miracle, making two people who were freezing in the cold look natural and beautiful in the photos by providing expert tips and angles. He took the photos with excellence, paying attention to the angles I wanted and being attentive to details. He corrected the posture, the bouquet, the ring, and the hair; I've never seen a photographer as dedicated as him. The angles he suggested were incredible, the photo editing was super fast and wonderful, and they looked like the cover of Vogue! He is excellent from start to finish, and I will definitely recommend him and do more photoshoots with him next year. He is 10/10.”
