Shante Carlan Photography

  • Serves Far Rockaway, NY

The photograph is a medium that is both respected and cherished by all. Whether you’re leafing through your family’s photo album or choosing an image to introduce yourself to the world, a photo has the ability to cement a memory and make a statement. My mission is to share everyone’s statements and memories through my visual storytelling.

Awarded Best of Zola
Shanté is magnificent. From the beginning, we connected well, stayed on the same page, and had great energy together. She was timely and considerate, which was perfect since we had the typical wedding day emergencies! She kept us calm when we showed up after expectations, and made the experience fun and joyful so that we could serve face for our special moments. She stayed on point through the entire experience, including weaving in a photo walk around some of my favorite places as we made our way back to the venue from the main photo location. I felt taken care of, supported, and most of all, seen by the person I trusted to have a vision of the day. I can’t be more enthusiastic and grateful about the experience Shanté gave me and my new husband. I never plan to do this again, but if I did, she would be at the top of the list of vendors to call! She and her assistant poured kindness into our day, and it was delightful to return the favor.

Dave and Rachel were a dream to work with from concept inception through delivery. We were having quite an untraditional wedding — from a ceremony in my childhood backyard to a reception with close friends in a whiskey library. We wanted the day to feel intimate, lowkey, full of our love and a vibe. Dave took time to get to know us, our style and watched our moments together so he could authentically capture our love. In our awkward moments he gave us direction, but mostly he immaculately captured those special moments we’d want to live over and over again. I can’t wait to find more occasions to work with Dave and Rachel again because you’ll never regret getting to relive the most special moments of your life. Thank you both for sharing in our love story.

Hey there. When we shoot a wedding, we know what it feels like, firsthand. The only regret of our own wedding was that we didn't invest in a videographer ourselves. To be able to go back and watch the best day of your life unfold is paramount. That's where we come in.   Our signature films are a cinematic look at your day, from getting ready to the 'I do' moment, to partying it up all night long. It's a perfect length to share on social media with loved ones, near and far. We also offer documentary length, ceremony only, and custom packages as well. ​

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I were back and forth on whether or not we wanted a videographer for our wedding day but I'm so glad we decided on Kyle & Melissa to capture our special day!! From the first time we spoke with them, we knew they were the right fit. Not only were they so knowledgeable about their craft, but they were easy-going, and helped us to navigate what package was best for us and making sure they captured everything we wanted. The drone is an awesome edition and such a cool feature to add to a wedding video, especially if you are in love with your venue as much as we were with ours. It was also a special treat to have a husband and wife couple filming our day, as they were able to beautifully see and video both my husband and I's perspectives throughout the course of the day, from getting ready to the ceremony and reception. Kyle and Melissa were not pushy at all and allowed us to decide what we did and did not want captured, ie, cards read, vows, first look, etc. The video trailer and full video itself came out incredible and helped us relive every second of our Wedding Day. They even gave us some extra footage which was awesome. Two of my other friends have already hired them. They are reasonably price and awesome to work with. Do yourself a favor and work with K&M Weddings!

My goal was “natural glam” – I wanted to feel glamourous but also still feel like myself (I don’t wear a lot of makeup day-to-day), and that’s exactly what Aneta did. Aneta also did my mother’s makeup for my wedding and my mom can’t stop talking about how fabulous she felt (and looked!). Aneta was thoughtful, responsive and caring in both the planning process and actual wedding day makeup application. I can’t say enough good things about her. I highly recommend Aneta!

Working with Evalyn, Cortney, and the team at Dish was a truly incomparable experience! I had the pleasure of getting to know Dish a few years back at my first job and had told my contact at the time, Bonnie, that I would definitely be back when it was time for me to host my big event - my wedding. After reconnecting with the Dish team, in particular speaking with Evalyn, we couldn't have felt more confident that it was the right fit for our big day. From the personalized menu, to the in house tasting, and the amazing day of coordinator, Cortney, the most important and expensive party we ever threw (and likely ever will) was in the best hands. When any changes or adjustments came up the team was eager to help make our vision come to life. A few weeks before when I wanted to do another itinerary run through, Cortney, was not just game, but so enthusiastic and supportive. As small things came up day of, Evalyn and Cortney were on it and as we were packing up, the whole Dish team helped us pack up and carry out our numerous flower arrangements.

Museum of the Moving Image is not your typical wedding venue - which is exactly what we wanted. BG, our venue coordinator was such a pleasure to work with. This was the first venue we visited and instantly knew it was the one for us, a lot of which is down to the level of service BG provided. We had just shy of 100 guests, reception in the main hall, and used the Red Stone Theatre for the ceremony. Our guests LOVED that they had access to the museum throughout the night, it was such a fun and interactive night for them. We're so glad we chose MOMI as our venue and would definitely recommend to anyone looking for something different and quirky, thank you to BG and the whole MOMI team!

The Kristin Trotta Wedding Band 

5.0

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $6,000
  • Serves Far Rockaway, NY

With powerful vocals and original arrangements The Kristin Trotta Wedding Band brings a unique and customized experience to your wedding. Kristin is equally at home belting Aretha blues as she is crooning Christina ballads and impresses with her vocal versatility. Uton’s powerful range and stage presence bring all the entertainment you could ask for. From a killer rhythm section to a stellar presentation, we promise to make your special day memorable and fun for all ages! Contact us here for more information.

Choosing Kristin as part of the live band for our wedding reception was one of the best vendor decisions my husband and I made. From the very beginning, Kristin was incredibly kind and easy to work with. She even learned 5 new songs for us! She learned songs for our first dance, father/daughter dance, mother/son dance, and even learned Taylor Swift’s “Love Story” for me, a huge Swiftie! Kristin performed a whole range of songs, from pop to rock to even some oldies that pleased my older relatives! Everyone at our wedding found a song to dance to by the end of the night. Our guests kept coming up to my husband and I just to say how much they loved the band, but notably, Kristin! Needless to say, Kristin absolutely rocked it and created some special moments that my husband and I will never forget! She came out into the crowd to dance and interact with my two young nieces (ages 4 and 2), who, in turn, instantly became part of the show. We cannot recommend Kristin Trotta and her Wedding Band more highly as a live band for your wedding day. They will for sure make your wedding one to remember!
