Hi, I’m Olivia! 🤍 Your photographer, biggest hype girl, and hopefully your new bestie! I’m a 23-year-old portrait and wedding photographer based in the beautiful Hudson Valley, NY, with a big love for capturing the real, raw, and beautiful moments that make your story uniquely yours. When you book with me, you’re getting so much more than someone behind a camera! You’re getting someone who genuinely cares about YOU, wants you to feel confident and comfortable, and will be right there cheering you on, fixing your dress, hyping you up, and probably tearing up behind the camera, too! 🥹✨ My goal is to make your experience just as special as the memories we’re creating together!

“I am SO happy we chose Olivia to do our wedding photography. My husband and I had a very small, intimate wedding ceremony and we were having trouble finding a photographer, but luckily we found Olivia! She took beautiful photos and helped capture our special day. She was great to work with and had so many creative ideas. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer!”

I have photographed hundreds of weddings all over the Hudson Valley since 2008 and have made some life long friends and clients over the years. My goal is to not just hand over digital files at the end of the day, but to leave with a connection to the bride and groom, one that will not only be reflected in the images from the day, but also possibly bring us back together for all the future milestones in your life together.

“From the moment we met Skye, we knew we were in great hands. But, she and her incredible team—Heidi and Luke—exceeded every expectation we had! We decided to book a package with Skye that included photography, videography, and a coordinator, and we’re so glad we did! Our wedding was held in the Catskills at the Arnold House, and we were searching for local vendors when we found Skye and her team via Google Maps. The photography was exactly what we were looking for! Skye has an amazing talent for capturing the most beautiful, candid moments while making us feel completely at ease throughout the day. Our wedding photos are nothing short of magical!! From the quiet intimate first look to the wild moments on the dance floor, no special moment was missed. Skye is incredibly flexible and responsive, which made everything run smoothly. Skye and Luke work great together and the photos/videos are just what we wanted. We are beyond thrilled with how our photos & video turned out! Heidi, our coordinator, was an absolute dream to work with! We cannot express enough how lucky we were to have her by our side. She took care of every detail with grace and professionalism, ensuring that everything went perfectly. Thanks to Heidi, we were able to relax and enjoy every moment without worrying about logistics. We spoke with her the weeks coming up to go over all the smallest of details and to make sure we were all on the same page. She made sure our vision came to life, that every guest signed our guestbook, that the gifts and envelopes made it home with a family member & that everything was absolutely perfect. (She thought of things that didn't even cross our minds!) AND she made sure that we actually ate and tried all the food!! Heidi's presence is very calming and we are so lucky to have had her as our coordinator. Skye, Heidi, and Luke made our wedding day unforgettable, and we feel so grateful for their hard work, dedication, and the beautiful memories they helped us create. If you’re looking for a talented, professional, and passionate team, we highly recommend Skye and her team!”

I’m known for documenting candid moments in a bright and vibrant way. I love capturing and creating narratives from start to finish - being a wedding photographer and videographer is the ultimate storytelling experience, and it’s one of my greatest joys. Weddings feel like home to me. I’ve found that it’s hard for me to stop smiling throughout the day, and even afterward, during the editing process. There’s just something about weddings that gets my heart all aflutter.

“From our first inquiry, Ashley was quick to respond, incredibly informative, and thoroughly addressed all of our questions. Her communication style put us at ease and made the planning process seamless. On the day of our wedding, Ashley and her husband, Seraphim felt like friends, helping us relax and feel comfortable in front of the camera. The final photos were nothing short of stunning - beautifully detailed and capturing all the special moments in a way that truly reflected the joy of our day. Ashley provided incredible value and we are thrilled with the beautiful memories they were able to preserve for us.”

Awarded Best of Zola
“Cass was our photographer for our Catskills wedding this past August, but we have actually worked with her a few times before for family and maternity photo shoots over the years. So she was our obvious must-have wedding photographer. We (mom, dad and 2 young sons) love working with Cass. It is such a natural, easy, organic experience. She's an incredibly talented photographer but what we love so much about working with Cass is how amazing she is with children and curating human interaction. The poses and composition of her work really capture the moments and the feelings of the day instead of something overly manufactured and staged. We have two very young children - maybe crying, tantruming or fully avoidant during a shoot - yet somehow in every single session we've done with Cass, she manages to work her incredible magic. What we thought was a total bust of a session ends up producing the most stunning and genuine photos that really feel like us. The other photographer that she brought with her to our wedding, Thomas, was absolutely lovely. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed him and his company. Cass has a real passion and natural skill for photography, but the way she works with her clients and their families during the photography is what makes her such a standout. It's safe to say, so long as Cass is in business, she will continue to be our family photographer for many many years to come.”

From the very beginning, talking with her felt like talking to a close friend. She made us feel comfortable, heard, and genuinely cared for throughout the entire process. She was so invested in our wedding day and, more importantly, in making sure we had the experience we wanted. She was incredibly communicative, collaborative, and responsive anytime I had a question or needed guidance. We always felt like we were in such good hands. And then there are the photos — they are truly beautiful. Her work is creative, thoughtful, and full of emotion. Looking through our gallery brings us right back to the warmth, love, and joy we felt that day. She captured not just how everything looked, but how it felt, which is something we will treasure forever. Aside from choosing the right partner, Kelly was the best decision we made for ourselves. We are so grateful that we chose her to be part of such an important day in our lives.

I'm driven by capturing genuine connections - stolen glances, quiet laughs, and beautiful moments that make your story uniquely yours. I see the world through a lens of possibility and joy, finding endless inspiration in documenting love in all forms. My mission? Capturing fleeting, precious moments that might slip by - your story matters and deserves to be told beautifully. I'm not just your photographer - I'm your ally and advocate throughout this journey, here to support you every step of the way.

“If I could give Rob 10 stars, I would! From day one, he instantly felt like he was not only a part of our wedding, but a part of our family. He is so incredibly personable and never once made it feel like "just business." My husband and I never felt like we had questions or concerns because Rob was always steps ahead of us, making sure every little detail was covered. We aren't exactly in love with being in front of the camera, but Rob somehow found a way to make us laugh, feel comfortable, and truly feel like ourselves. He made the entire experience so effortless, and we never felt awkward or overly posed. Beyond how amazing he is to work with, the photos are everything we could have hoped for and more. He captured not only the big moments, but all of the little in-between moments that we will get to look back on and cherish forever. We honestly couldn't imagine having anyone else capture our wedding day. Rob is incredibly talented, but what makes him so special is the person he is. We are so grateful we found him and will recommend him to absolutely everyone!”

Hello! My name is Christine and I love weddings. I have been photographing weddings since 2005 and the more I do it, the more I love it. I also love chocolate, binge-worthy television and Betty White so much, I named my dog after her.

“Dear Prospective Couples, In the summer of 2017, I had the opportunity to hire Christine Merson for my wedding. Besides the decision to marry my husband, she was the best decision of the day. If you have the opportunity to hire this talented professional I would recommend it. You will not be disappointed. Christine planned out the timeline for the entire event with me a week before the big day. Christine is a wonderful listener and was able to provide insightful suggestions to make sure the day was a stress-free as possible. Because of her years of experience, her advice really changed the course of the event in positive ways. Moments before the outdoor ceremony, the skies opened up and there was a downpour. The venue switched the ceremony to inside. Christine and her second photographer adapted to the situation as if that was the way the ceremony was originally planned. My dad was recovering from major surgery the day of the wedding. My father-in-law and godmother were also recovering from medical issues. Four days before the wedding, my husband came down with a nasty virus. Christine and her employee were able to capture everyone with a smile and with their best foot forward. Christine captured so many special and intimate moments of my wedding day without being intrusive. I will cherish each documented memory for years to come. If you choose to work with Christine, I am sure you will feel the same way. Best wishes!”

Hi. I'm Steve. I have found my passion in photographing weddings. After shooting my first wedding (which was a last minute, three day notice, emergency for a co-worker) I realized this is what I want to do with my life. Maybe I'm a romantic, I'm not sure, but here I am. I work with several other photographers in the area. I felt it was important to do my best to create a large network of wedding professionals so I have plenty of photographers to bring in as second shooters or back-ups.

Seven years later, I’m still using the photo Nebu took of me. It’s the best headshot I’ve ever had, even though I’ve paid other photographers since and haven’t loved any of them the same way.

They’re gorgeous, and capture not just what the day looked like, but what it felt like. As incredible as the photos are, what sticks with us most is how much we loved working with her. She was completely game for every nutty idea we had—including taking a ferry for our engagement photos on an island. Beyond being unbelievably talented, she and her second shooter were simply wonderful people to have by our side on our wedding day.

Her creative eye and thoughtful ideas resulted in unique, stunning photos that captured the magic of the day while still feeling authentically us. Rayleen's work is absolutely top-notch — the photos are high quality, beautifully edited, and full of life. She balanced professionalism with so much fun, easily connecting with our wedding group and blending seamlessly into the flow of the day while capturing the most meaningful moments. She went above and beyond to contribute to our day in meaningful ways. One of her most brilliant ideas was suggesting we end the day by crushing grapes at the winery's grape festival. My husband and I climbed into a bucket of grapes in my wedding gown and his suit, and the resulting photos are truly incredible — unique, joyful, and unforgettable. Without her creative vision, we would have missed out on such a special moment and the amazing photos that captured it. Rayleen captured every laugh, happy tear and in-between moment. Every time we look at her photos, it feels like we're reliving our wedding day exactly as it felt. Rayleen is not only an exceptionally talented photographer, but also a genuinely wonderful person. She felt like a friend by the end of the day, and we hope our paths cross again. We would 10/10 recommend her to anyone in need of a photographer!”

Wedding photographs you'll return to for fifty years. The moments you were too happy to notice, the portraits you'll frame, the room exactly as it was designed, made quietly by someone already standing where the moment is about to happen. I'm Shukhrat, based in Connecticut and photographing weddings wherever you're celebrating: Newport and the Rhode Island coast, Boston, the Berkshires, the Catskills, the Connecticut shoreline, and further afield. Every wedding has two photographers and an assistant. Digital, 35mm film and licensed aerial photography from one team, and your first gallery, around 500 finished photographs, within a week.

Awarded Best of Zola
“Shukhrat and his wife Rachel just shot our June 8th wedding and we couldn't be happier. They were amazing to work with and the photos are phenomenal! About the pictures: Shukhrat is versatile and very skilled. When we took our engagement photos he provided us with various styles of photos and editing, and then used our feedback to guide the photos he took at our wedding. He is also flexible. We got married in a city park and there were wayyyy more people in the park than we were expecting at 6:00pm at night. Without missing any of the candid details or true-to-life colors that we wanted, Shukhrat was able to frame the photos and/or alter the lighting so that the park goers were barely visible in the background. Both Shukhrat and Rachel are also very skilled at giving direction when needed, but letting you do your own thing the rest of the time. Neither my husband nor I have a lot of experience in front of a camera—they gave us enough direction to feel confident, without making us feel stifled or overly posed. We wanted photos that felt organic and genuine, and they were really able to capture that. Working with Shukhrat and Rachel: The two of them were a dream to work with. Incredibly professional--very communicative, punctual, quick turnaround time on photos. And they are also just lovely people. You spend so much time on your wedding day with your photographers, it's really important to feel comfortable with them, and we certainly did. They brought both a fun, but calming energy, easing our pre-wedding jitters before the ceremony, and leaning into the excitement as the night went on. Although we hardly know them, they felt like friends. We are so glad we booked Shukhrat for our wedding!”

I’m Ben Wagner, a New York City–based wedding and elopement photographer with roots in France. I relocated to the United States in 2016—the same year I photographed my first wedding and discovered a passion for it. Since then, I’ve documented over 150 celebrations across the country and abroad. From the West Coast to NC and New England, and internationally in France and Morocco, my work is shaped by a love of travel, culture, and human connection. All love is honored here. Regardless of religion, sexual orientation, race, immigration status, or personal beliefs, —a place where your story is felt, seen, respected, and beautifully documented.

“As the mother of the bride, I had so many emotions that day, and this team captured them all beautifully. I was worried I might be too busy to take in every detail, but looking through the photos now I feel like I can relive it again and again. The way they highlighted the bond between my daughter and me brought me to tears. The video is something I will treasure forever, especially hearing the vows and speeches so clearly. They were respectful and attentive throughout the entire day. I appreciate how they caught the little in between moments that meant so much to our family. This company gave us a priceless gift, and I’ll always be grateful.”

“When I came across Rebecca's website and portfolio I was immediately smitten. Her style was so beautiful and unique, and exactly what I was hoping to find for our wedding. One quick call with her and I knew she was our photographer. She was so warm and welcoming and we felt completely ourselves around her. We had FUN spending time with her for both our engagement and wedding photos. Aside from her amazing skills - she went ABOVE AND BEYOND to coordinate our engagement photos with us when we were living in California. She was the easiest choice we made and we love every photo she took for us. Cannot recommend her highly enough! - Chelsean Nick”
