  • Serves Kendall, NY
  • Offer

After working in television and media as a video editor and photographer for 6 years, I decided I wanted to spend all my time behind my camera capturing real-life love stories. I have a creative writing degree, and I always knew I would be in a career where I was able to tell stories. Writing led me to producing, which led me to video editing, which led me to taking photos professionally, which led me here, ready to work alongside you to be sure all your visions for the perfect wedding day end up in your gallery after it's all over.

She took photos of my partner and I and we love them so much we made a physical photo album! Marisa made us feel like main characters of the movie of our lives. She didn’t fit us in the box of what couples photos ‘should’ look like but created photos that feel personal to us. Marisa has calming yet exciting energy and a welcoming presence that allows you and your partner to be your authentic self. Hire her! You won’t regret it!

Emily Braun Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Kendall, NY

I've spent over a decade capturing weddings, couples, and portraits, refining my signature style: rich, nostalgic, and true to life. I love creating images that feel both luxurious and natural- deep colors, authentic emotions, and dynamic compositions. I'm all about capturing genuine connections in stunning environments for a photography experience and final gallery that feels like you, and will invoke a sense of nostalgia for years to come.

Awarded Best of Zola
Wedding photos are so much more than just a few pictures you post on instragram/social media. Your wedding album becomes memories and emotions you keep forever. It is incredibly important to find someone that can capture more than your new profile picture- if you don’t want a basic selection of photos and want your core memories, look no further. Emily captures and encapsulates the stillness between the glances, the looks where no one is watching and makes your love center stage. As someone who experiences insecurities (as nearly all women do, especially on your wedding day) Emily created a space of safety, calmness, with genuine care and compassion. She removed barriers that made me feel uncomfortable, while capturing love and purpose with each snap of her camera. You’ll never find someone like her- ridiculously talented and devoted to the shot, all while exuding a light smile, thinking of creative ways to highlight your day. My gallery was a true reflection of the relationship between my wife and I, including moments I nearly forgot about in the craziness of the day. I look back at my experience with Emily, and am so thankful we found her. If you’re looking for curated creativity, a kind heart, and someone who will provide the most memorable moments through photos, you’ve met your gal.

When I'm not making photos you may find me mountaineering, playing an accordion or piano, tending to my tiny house and tiny garden or riding my bike here, there, and ev'ry where. Also, I'm afraid of gum.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot say enough great things about Lindsay as our wedding photographer. She has such a talent for capturing emotion and truly telling the story of your wedding day through her photos. So many of her photos bring me right back to how I was feeling in those moments. She shoots a perfect blend of traditional portraits and the candid "in-between" memories. She captures details and moments that you never even realized she was there to catch. During the formal portraits she does a great job helping you feel comfortable and giving posing directions. However, I truly think she stands apart because of her ability to capture “real” moments and be discreet during parts of the day where she isn't explicitly giving direction, while still getting every aspect you could want (e.g. during the ceremony, dance floor, etc.). She has some angles of our ceremony that I still don’t know how she was able to capture them, we didn’t even notice she was right there! Her work truly speaks for itself. I am so very grateful that we chose her to photograph our wedding and that we have continued to work with her in the years since our wedding for our maternity, newborn and family photos. Lindsay has truly become a friend in the process of being our wedding photographer. I recommend her to all of my friends who are planning their weddings and I look forward to working with her in the future.

Megan was the first photographer that we sat down with to discuss our wedding photography and after that first meeting, we felt zero need to speak with anyone else because we loved her so much. She and her sister photographed our wedding and did a phenomenal job. We received hundreds of photos within 3 weeks of our wedding and we couldn't be happier with them. We can't wait to see them all once they are done being edited. They were a dream to work with and I am so happy we went with Moonshine!

Stefan Ludwig Photo + Video 
Rating: 5.0 (1 review)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Kendall, NY

I moved to Buffalo, NY about 6 years ago. Why Buffalo? Because my wife grew up here. I was born and raised in Münster, Germany and lived most recently in Vienna, Austria. I worked as a journalist for financial newspapers, websites and magazines. I wrote mainly about tech companies such as Apple, Facebook, Google among other things. As part of my job I was exposed to photography and filmmaking and discovered a passion. It didn’t take long for family and friends to ask me to photograph their weddings. I realized how much fun it was to be part of such an emotional day which you remember for a lifetime.

From the start, Stefan was very detail-oriented and attentive. We used him for two cultural events and one reception. He was very communicative and understanding. As a couple that is not comfortable in the spotlight, Stefan worked well with our insecurities and our cultural nuances. He was incredibly creative with small spaces, multiplae locations, and using props found around the spaces. He shot the two events alone and added Adam for teh reception. They were both able to adapt quickly due to some unforeseen rain and rolled with the punches of different cultural expectations. We never felt awkward, but felt stunning and feel the photos showed how truly happy we were on that day.

I focus on capturing natural expressions in beautiful scenes so that when you look back at your memories, you don’t just remember what happened - you remember what it felt like to be there.

Jeff was very communicative and offered support beyond just helping curate our shoots. He was helpful in mapping out our timeline and making our day run super smooth. Jeff has a sensibility that made it very easy to work with him and helped everyone around him relax on what is a stressful day for many people. I got lots of feedback from my family that he was a standup gentleman and he genuinely improved our wedding experience.

After graduating from Parson's School of Art in Manhattan, I worked as a fine artist, my work involved photography and photo manipulation. I quickly discovered that I loved and excelled at photo retouching, and went on to work for some of the best photo retouching studios in New York.

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Emma Cleary’s photography team. From start to finish, the experience was absolutely exceptional. The entire team was professional, warm, and incredibly talented, making us feel comfortable and confident every step of the way. Anna, our lead photographer, was truly outstanding. She was calm, organized, and had an amazing eye for capturing both the big moments and the quiet, emotional details. She made everything feel natural and effortless, and the photos are beyond stunning—timeless, beautiful, and full of genuine emotion. Kamil, our videographer, was equally incredible. His presence was seamless, and the final video is cinematic, emotional, and perfectly tells the story of our day. He captured moments we didn’t even realize were happening, and watching the video brings us right back to every feeling of the day.

We couldn’t be happier with our experience working with Ihor. He photographed both our engagement near Beacon, NY and our wedding in Glen Ridge, NY at the Glen Ridge Women's Club, and the results were incredible across the board. For our engagement shoot, which was mostly outdoors, Ihor recommended the best time of day so the lighting would be perfect, and it really shows in the photos. We moved around to several locations on the property, and even though the shoot was only about an hour, we ended up with tons of great shots. He was easy to work with and gave helpful direction that made us feel and look comfortable on camera. On our wedding day, Ihor arrived on time, stayed engaged the whole evening, and captured so many meaningful moments. Our venue was fairly dimly lit, but everything came out sharp, colorful, and beautiful. He did a great job capturing both the big moments and the candid ones in between, along with the emotion throughout the day. He also delivered way more photos than we expected, including a preview just a couple days after the wedding. Beyond the photos, Ihor is a genuinely great guy and a pleasure to have around. We would absolutely work with him again and highly recommend him.
