My name is Ali Cushing; a NY-based photographer working in a blended documentary and editorial approach, emphasized with a cinematic method, and a personalized, true to life editing style. I am honored to be entrusted with depicting genuine love, authentic characters, and immortalizing precious memories. I see beauty in the subtle details as much as the wide, epic scene, while I see glory in the mundane in-between moments as much as the heart thudding highs. I am adamant that everyone, of all genders and orientations, any ethnicity, culture, or faith, all shapes, ages, and abilities, are welcome and I’d be delighted to work with you.

Hiring Ali was the best decision we made for our wedding. From the very beginning, she felt like a helpful friend who was there to guide us through the planning and execution of our big day(s). She was a calm and supportive presence during our wedding weekend who made herself known when we needed her, but otherwise felt like a guest with a nice camera. Of course the photos look exceptional, but what stands out to us is her artistic eye and her excitement about her craft. She went absolutely above and beyond for us in so many ways and my family and I are forever grateful!

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

With award-winning shooters plus features like 10 hours of coverage, a guaranteed 2-4 week turnaround time on all videos and a Hi-Resolution Flash Drive with full release coming standard with every package, Epic can help you get the most out of your wedding photos + films.

Justin and our second shooter (can’t remember his name!) were on top of photography throughout the whole day. They were discrete and also good at guidance and direction. We added a second shooter that was affordable and was open to helping with other things besides just the photography (fetched items for the groom). For the quality and quantity of photos we received, the price was very reasonable. They got a large amount of photos throughout the entire day. The one con was that the couples portraits seemed rushed, and we wish we had more time for that. Otherwise we had a fantastic day and would 100% trust them to capture our special memories again.

I’ve always been passionate about capturing moments as authentically and magically as possible, and as i’ve settled more into this career path, I love that i’ve landed in a place where I have the privilege to capture and preserve people’s love stories.

I love the vintage-inspired look of the photos and video. She communicated when she said she would and I always received a quick response to any questions or messages I had. On the wedding day, I couldn’t imagine anyone who would make it as special as Mae did. She was more than a photographer- she helped me put on myself shoes, hyped up all the little details I stressed months over, and was just such a joy. I cannot recommend Mae enough. I loved all the photos and the video made me cry. Mae is the type of person you want to be friends with after everything is done. Trust me, book Mae!!

Where do I even begin with Jessica Yahn Photography? From the very first time we met her, Jessica didn’t just feel like a photographer — she instantly felt like family. She has this warm, genuine personality that puts you completely at ease, and by the end of our engagement session, we already knew we’d made the best decision choosing her to capture our story. When it came to our wedding day, Jessica went above and beyond every single expectation. She didn’t just take photos — she created moments that felt straight out of a dream. Every detail, every emotion, and every bit of love that filled the day somehow came through perfectly in her work. Her creativity, professionalism, and passion are unmatched, and her photos are truly magical. But what meant the most to me was her kindness and care behind the camera. In the middle of all the wedding chaos, when I started to feel sick, Jessica stopped what she was doing to come check on me — not because it was part of her job, but because that’s just who she is. That small act spoke volumes about her heart and the kind of person she is. Jessica didn’t just capture our memories — she became a part of them. She is no longer just our photographer; she is our friend, our family, and someone who will always hold a special place in our hearts. We will forever be grateful for her and the way she turned some of the most important moments of our lives into pure, timeless magic.

King is an absolute dream to work with for our engagement photo session!, King, gave us the freedom to just be ourselves and have fun, telling us to grab a bottle of champagne and find a classic car and head to the suburbs of Kansas City. He captured so many beautiful, natural moments between my fiancé and I that we'll cherish forever. King's unscripted approach allowed our personalities to shine through in the photos, and the final images turned out stunning. We couldn't be happier with our experience and highly recommend King for any couple looking for an effortless, joy-filled photo session. As you can tell I look beautiful in photos.

The second we met Diana we knew she would forever be our photographer. She is so kind, welcoming, passionate, and skilled! She made the best day of my life the easiest day of my life. She makes beautiful photos but does what no one else can—captures the genuine moment. Her photos tell stories that will speak to me the rest of my life. We love her photos and personality so much she has been our photographer for EVERY mile stone… graduation.. engagement.. wedding.. graduation again!. We will even plan to use her for our future family photos. There is not better person to capture your moments. And for her prices? It’s a steal because what she does is worth far more than she charges. 5 stars. No, 10000 stars. Couldn’t recommend anyone better
