I present fun, elegant, and exciting Wedding Photography for my clients. My style is photojournalistic; I feel it's the most effective way to tell a story.

These recollections are your forever keepsakes, a chapter of your life's story. Every image accounts for those who were by your side, delighted for you, and the next step in your journey. I appreciate you for giving me a few moments of your time.t

We couldn’t be happier with the incredible work Portraits by Sean did on our wedding day! From start to finish, he was professional, creative, and so easy to work with. Sean stayed until the very end of the night, capturing every special moment without ever making us feel rushed. One of the things we really appreciated was how he worked with the kids—getting them to smile and be comfortable without any stress. Their ability to blend in while also capturing candid, beautiful moments was outstanding. We were blown away by the quality of the photos, and they truly exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend Portraits by Sean to anyone looking for a talented and reliable photographer to capture the magic of their day!

We had an amazing experience working with Golden Thread for our wedding. We had a gap between our civil and symbolic ceremony, (our wedding wasn't structured like typical ones) but Matt and his partner were very flexible. They allowed us to feel comfortable when taking photos and helped guide us with poses as my now husband and I are NOT great picture takers lol. Thank you so much!!! We absolutely love our wedding photos.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring Eivan’s for our wedding was a great decision! Our photographer Gregory I was professional and FUN! He kept us smiling throughout the day with his quirky personality! My fiancé does not care for photos so I’m happy we had someone working with us who could make him comfortable. He made sure to get multiple images even if it was just “one more”, it was never one more! We had actually hired a different photographer and we replaced him with this company. Worth the stress and money! If I had any tips for the company, it would be to have your photographers give a 30 minute warning before their contracted time is up. Weddings are so busy for the bride and groom, it is very easy to lose track of time. I think clients would appreciate a little heads up just so they can try and capture any photos they may have missed. Other than that, I have ZERO complaints. Such an amazing experience! 10/10 highly recommend :)

I’m Natty, a NYC based photographer drawn to candid moments, vibrant city light, and images that feel natural rather than overly posed. I photograph portraits, couples, proposals, and lifestyle sessions, with a focus on creating photos that feel personal, polished, and true to the moment.

We had such a great experience working with Natty Takes Pics from start to finish. What really stood out was how Natty captured our genuine moments—our laughs, our story, all the little things that felt effortless but meant so much to us. The color grading on every photo has this romantic, cinematic quality that makes them feel like scenes from a movie. Natty's photography skills are truly amazing and the hard work that went into our wedding day shows in every single image. We're absolutely in love with these photos and can't wait to recommend Natty to our friends. Thank you for everything!

Rating: 5.0 (4 reviews)
·Ratings include Zola and Google reviews
Long Island City, NY
  • Photojournalistic style

The day you get married to your best friend isn’t about the size of the venue or the number of guests. It’s not about the flavor of the cake or flower arrangements. It’s simply about two people madly in love with each other, the intimate connection they share, and the memories they create along the way. After the food has been eaten, the presents have been opened, and the dress is hanging in your closet, your wedding day will still be with you – in your memories and in the images captured that day.

Sascha was so wonderful to work with!! I was completely overwhelmed with the amount of options we had available to us. I ended up narrowing down by the type of style I saw within photographers portfolio's. Sascha seemed to capture couples in their natural-at-ease compatibility. I reached out to Sascha and throughout our entire communication he was prompt at responding. We booked 4 months in advance and I did have an idea of the type of photo I was looking for. Sascha welcomed my location suggestions and we mapped out a game plan. The day arrived and though we were nervous to be in front of a camera, Sascha made us feel at ease and helped us feel comfortable in front of the lens. Sascha was easy to banter with and was flexible with angles and shots. We left Sascha after the shoot feeling excited and anxious on how well our vision translated to photos. When we got the photos back we could not be more pleased!! They came out exactly how we wanted them to and I couldn't have been more grateful to have found someone as talented, gracious and kind as Sascha.

  • Serves Long Island City, NY

Hey there! My name is Marilyn. I live in New York City with my sweet partner, and our orange cat Maple. I’m an introverted, soft-hearted mush with an insatiable need to document the beauty in life. Practicing self-portraits in middle school eventually led me to pursue my photography degree from New York University, and I have been joyfully creating photos of wedding days ever since. To me, weddings are a magical display of the human spirit. It’s my biggest honor and joy to create imagery that captures that human magic - especially in a way that breaks the boundaries of historically gendered traditions.

Awarded Best of Zola
Wow WOW!! We are beyond grateful to Marilyn for capturing our joint proposal so beautifully! As a queer couple, we haven’t always had positive experiences feeling fully seen and comfortable during special moments. However, she was truly incredible. From the very start, she made us feel safe, respected, and completely at ease, allowing us to be our true selves. Marilyn's warmth and professionalism ensured that we could fully enjoy the moment, and it shows in the absolutely STUNNING photos she created. Every image reflects the love and joy we felt that day, and we couldn’t be happier with how they turned out. Thank you for preserving these memories so perfectly and making it a lovely experience.

We originally found Thalia on TikTok and she captured the most magical engagement photos for us in NYC (we’re from Melbourne, Australia). She then made our absolutely dreams come true and agreed to come to Melbourne to shoot our wedding!!!!!!!! We had the most magical week with her and she made our friends and family feel so comfortable in front of the camera, and she captured the most incredible moments for us. Due to a mix up with our officiant on the day, we couldn’t actually get legally married - so we’ll be going to city hall in NYC next month and you BEST BELIEVE Thalia will be joining us for a THIRD time to capture our lil city hall marriage day! We’ve found not only a lifetime photographer, but a lifetime friend.

I'm Kara :) I'm an adventurer, risk-taker, traveler, and wedding+ elopement photographer! I know that you're looking for more than just beautiful wedding photos which is why my work with you doesn't start (or end) there. You deserve an expert- somebody who can give you the best advice & industry secrets. I know the ins & outs of weddings because I live them every weekend & know the very real stress that comes with planning a wedding. Hiring me means being able to rest + relax knowing that everything is taken care of; somebody anticipating your needs before you even know them. I'm your hype girl, confidant, & the one to open the dance floor.

Awarded Best of Zola
Kara is in all things absolutely superlative. That might sound effusive, but I think it risks understatement. My wife and I had the privilege of engaging Kara’s talents for our wedding and it's difficult to convey how delightful working with Kara is and how happy we are with the photos that she took; language goes only so far. Picture me wild and gesticulating with glee, saying ‘look at this one, no look at *this* one!’ in sequence, for each and every photo of the wedding. I have Kara to thank for that, for these captured moments that I treasure over anything else. To get results like that I think you need to be an artist of considerable talent, a detail-oriented business owner, a capable director of unpracticed models, and to very much love what you do. I can say that all of these things are true about Kara: her work speaks for itself, her appointments are kept, her communications are prompt, detailed, and delightful, her directions while shooting ease you adroitly into your best angles, and her eye catches magic when you’ve forgotten about the camera entirely. Kara is a genius who will get you out of your head and into your heart, she is an absolute joy to work with, and I can’t recommend her photography enough.

How many times in your life can you say: “I have fulfilled something so meaningful that it not only makes me happy but complete strangers as well?” I get that fulfillment every time I step into a wedding, an engagement session, or even capturing a new born. I love capturing the moment that exist right when a groom takes a look at his beautiful bride and can’t help but shed a tear of joy. These unfiltered moments make my job that much better. I live for those instances, where raw emotions are revealed and I can piece together a story worth telling.

We can confidently say that every couple wishes they had a photographer like Kevin for their wedding day. He was, simply put, the best decision we made in our planning process. From our initial meeting to the final click of the shutter, Kevin was an absolute professional—prompt, organized, and prepared for every possible scenario. More importantly, he brought the most wonderful energy to the day. He was a calming, positive, and genuinely fun presence, which is exactly what you need when wedding day jitters set in! Kevin has a truly unique gift for going with the flow. He never forced a shot or rushed a moment. Instead, he seamlessly integrated into the event, quietly capturing genuine, candid treasures that reflect the true emotion of the day. We are constantly amazed at his technical skill. No matter the lighting or the location, Kevin knows how to make every angle work. He saw opportunities for stunning portraits and dynamic group shots where we just saw a regular room. If you are looking for a photographer who delivers magazine-quality photos while making you feel totally relaxed and present in the moment, stop scrolling and book Kevin now!

Everyone was able to tell that Michelle works very diligently and cares about the work she puts out. She sent the photos to us in a very timely manner and was communicative throughout the whole process. I love how at the time of booking, we had to schedule a consultation just for her to get to know us. It was camera’s on so we were all able to get a feel for who each of us would be working with. The exercise she had us do, when we needed to choose the pictures we love the best, of us during our relationship to assess if we would be a mutual fit, in terms of her working style was super cool because it showed us that she wants to make sure she meshes well with her clients.

Georgia photographed our wedding and did an incredible job. From the start, we knew we would be in good hands, but we were completely blown away by how much we loved the final photos.

A standout memory for us was when she gently and respectfully whisked us outside the reception hall to snap a photo just as the sun peeked through after a rainy afternoon — it was an unforgettable moment we’ll cherish forever. Hiring Georgia Panagi as your wedding photographer is a decision you can't go wrong with.

If I had a superpower, it would be celebrating people. I'm my friends' biggest cheerleader and I'll be yours too during this whole process! As a documentary wedding photographer, I focus more on being in the moment and letting you be YOU, by reminding you why you fell in love in the first place.

I met Juan and Loretta while working at a wedding a couple years ago, and I knew right then that they'd be my photographers when I got married. There's something special about feeling comfortable with your photo team—it sets the tone for your entire day—and from the moment they arrived, they made us feel at ease. Juan and Loretta have this gift for capturing natural moments while you're just living and laughing, which is exactly what happened throughout our wedding. Their photos are stunning, and more importantly, they felt relaxed and grounded the whole time we were with them. We never had to second-guess our choice, and looking back at our photos, I can see why. Loretta and Juan are truly both amazing, and I'd recommend them to anyone without hesitation.
