“Jordan photographed our wedding in Lake Placid and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a wedding photographer! He is skilled, knowledgeable, a true Adirondack gem! We first contacted Jordan after seeing his work on Instagram. The quality and style of his images stood out in a crowd of wedding photographers. He has an incredible creative eye! After a video meeting with him, it became clear that we had found a great match, both in terms of style and personality. Every communication reminded me that he cared and listened! With so many details that one has to remember at a wedding, some details can easily be missed, BUT not Jordan! On our wedding day, he was able to deliver everything we asked for and was executed beautifully and with ease! Our photos are beyond beautiful! The final photos are pure magic! Full of candid shots but also modern and timeless! But what truly impressed us was the incredibly fast turnaround. We had our sneak peek within a day and our full gallery in less than 2 weeks! We can't thank Jordan enough! He is a true professional and amazing at what he does! BOOK him and you will never regret it! Our family is already looking forward to going back to Lake Placid and having a family session with him sometime in the near future!”

“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!!”

“We cannot recommend Jason highly enough! From the very beginning of our wedding planning process, he was amazing to work with. He kept in touch regularly, offering helpful suggestions when we were unsure about timelines or logistics. On wedding day, Jason was an absolute joy to work with. He brought such positive energy and made everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera. He remembered every detail we discussed beforehand—from specific photo ideas to family members’ names—and even came up with creative ideas on the spot based on the location, lighting, and his incredible experience. He sent over several sneak peek photos the very next morning! It was so exciting to see how beautifully everything turned out, and it made us even more eager for the full gallery. Jason’s turnaround time was exactly as promised in his contract, and he continued to check in with us throughout the process, even though he was clearly busy with other weddings. Jason’s talent, professionalism, and thoughtfulness made him such an important part of our wedding. We're so grateful to have found him and for the stunning memories he captured and would 1000% recommend him to anyone. If we have the chance to work with him again in the future, we absolutely will!”

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.

We chose Makenzie because her values of capturing our story and our loved ones moments aligned with what we were looking for!

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.

“I normally never write reviews but Cass is the photographer you need for any event you have coming up! She just captured our engagement earlier this year and our wedding last month! We found her work on Facebook initially but the website for Fairy Tale Dreams Photography is very easy to find and access, and Cass was readily available for every question we had and every part along the way as well! Neither of us are very photographic people, however Cass was able to direct us in a way that made our engagement session and wedding photos like a fun date with no pressure and the outcomes of the photos were absolutely astonishing and did not look forced or directed at all. She is an expert in capturing the little moments in a very candid style. Even though in general we had felt a little awkward behind the camera in general prior to our experience with her, she made it feel completely stress free while also making it a great time! She was unbelievably accommodating and even came to check out our venue the day before ahead of time to plan out some great photo/lighting spots for the big day which we really appreciated as we were unsure of where would be best. She also made sure to capture all of the poses/shots we had saved to our Pinterest board for ideas of what we wanted while also making them individual to us! She is also great on timelines, I know a lot of photographers can take up to months after to send edited photos back, but we got our sneak peaks back in 2-3 days and the rest within a week! I could go on and on but overall we absolutely loved having Cass capture such a special time in our lives and we strongly recommend her to whoever is looking. I’ve had a lot of experience with different photographers and what sets Cass apart isn’t only that she truly cares about capturing the right moments for her clients but more importantly she truly cares about and gets to know the people she is photographing and it really shows in her work! The photos she took are the photos we will cherish for the rest of our lives and looking back on them we are certain that we wouldn’t have been able to get the photos of our dreams with anyone else!”

Hello, I'm Caitlyn, the founder and lead photographer of Moments Captured CNY. I'm passionate about telling the stories of couples in love through my photography. Based in Syracuse, New York, I've had the privilege of capturing weddings and special moments throughout Central New York. When I'm not behind the camera, you can find me exploring the beauty of the 315 or spending time with loved ones.

“From the moment we first spoke with Caitlyn from Moments Captured CNY, we knew we had found the perfect wedding photographer. Her communication was incredibly helpful, thorough, friendly, and timely throughout the entire process. The quality of her work is simply amazing - the photos she captured are truly beautiful and captivating. Caitlyn was so collaborative and attentive to every detail, even going so far as to fix my dress and pose us perfectly to ensure we looked our best. We were thrilled to receive some of our gorgeous photos in a personalized box the very same day. Caitlyn is so sweet and talented, and she made us feel completely comfortable and at ease. I cannot recommend Moments Captured CNY highly enough - Caitlyn helped make our wedding day run so smoothly, and we will cherish the breathtaking photos she took for the rest of our lives.”

I love bright, authentic, joyous, and vibrant photos. Going on adventures with my couples is what I live for. Hikes, waterfalls, deep in the woods, you name it! Rain? No problem! I love leaving a session with a big smile on my face because it was filled with laughter.

The guests were very impressed with her professionalism as well as her ability to just blend in. She was a blast to work with!”
