I've taken everything I learned in photo school and used it to influence my wedding photography. The end result? Images that feel effortlessly cool, timeless, and personal. I work in a way that encourages you and your partner to interact with each other and be yourselves, instead of focusing on me and my camera.

Melissa made my special day stress free and fun. I expressed to her we were awkward and didn’t know how to pose and she responded with “I specialize in awkward.” She made us feel so comfortable and photogenic. She went above and beyond because my wedding outfit didn’t come in time and offered to split the session. I can’t wait to work with her again!

Hi! I’m Justin (he/him) and I’m here to affirm your love, make you feel like a fucking rockstar, and dance like a total fool. Oh, and take so many gorgeous photos of y’all. Obvs. My style blends both documentary photojournalism and fine art photography: coaching folks who are shy in front of the camera, then stepping back to capture authentic moments uninterrupted. I’ve been lucky enough to have my work published by A Practical Wedding, The New York Times, GLAMOUR, People Magazine and many other fabulous outlets. I'm a stereotypical Capricorn that loves drag shows, campy horror films, every dog I meet, and Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups.

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. In 2009 I shot my first wedding, it was a dear friend of mine and the beautiful photos were featured in one of the biggest wedding magazines. I realized that I had found my calling and have been producing stunning wedding photographs with my amazing team and clients ever since.

Awarded Best of Zola
It was such a pleasure working with Emma Cleary photography and videography. From the start, Emma was great to communicate with and always responded very promptly. She was organized from the start and made planning easy. The crew really captured the day so beautifully and professionally and looking back on the photos and videos makes us so happy. We keep watching the videos over and over! The editing and attention to detail on all of their work is all at such an incredibly high level. The photographers (David, Dilmurad) and the videographer (Kamil) were so fun and easy on the day of the wedding, they knew exactly how to get the perfect shots in a way that didn’t interrupt the flow of the day while still capturing everything so well. When the Groomsmen didn’t know how to properly attach their boutonnieres, the cameraman stepped up to help out and show them how to do it! We were running a bit behind schedule on the Bride’s side during the day of the wedding, but the crew was patient with us and found plenty to take pictures of while we finished getting ready. Emma Cleary’s team were all such fun to work with and we are so thankful for the memories that they captured.

You captured every moment with such emotion, beauty, and magic that it truly left us speechless.

You answered every text and question so quickly and with such warmth that we always felt taken care of. And on the wedding day? WOW. You were calm, focused, and full of light, even while managing our big, passionate Hispanic family with so much patience and grace (which is not an easy task ). Everyone adored you! Your eye for detail, your energy, and your professionalism made such a difference. You blended in when needed, took charge when it mattered, and made us feel completely at ease in front of the camera. You captured us, our love, our families, our joy, so effortlessly. You are truly worth every single penny and so much more. We are forever grateful to you for the love and care you poured into our day and into these photos.

We are a married couple of photographers. Within years of career, we discovered what’s really matters - we want to make people happy. Weddings have it all: new interesting people, touching stories, warm family relationships, tears. A lot of tears! Oh, don’t forget dances and sparklers! So, it’s fun! 🙂 Also, we love weddings because it’s the most challenging kind of photography in the field, it combines all the genres. It make you think, move and react quickly in constantly changing surrounding. We have no room for mistakes. So It’s never boring! 🙂

Awarded Best of Zola
Booking Tati & Roman was hands down the BEST decision we made for our wedding. We were looking for someone with more of an editorial style with a focus on genuine candid photos, and they absolutely delivered!!! Tati & Roman took the time to get to know us and what the vibe of our wedding would be like, and it translated SO well in their photos. When we told them we were leaning into a movie theme and wanted to do our engagement photos in a movie theater, they really took the idea and brought it to life in ways we hadn’t even imagined. People are STILL talking about how cool our engagement photos were. And now we all can’t stop gushing over our wedding photos!! They captured everything so beautifully - all of the love and absolute joy of the day just shines through each photo. They took so many gorgeous photos of our loved ones too - the best photos we've ever seen of many of them! Trying to pick only a few of our photos for this post feels IMPOSSIBLE. And even the album titles they sorted the photos into matched our theme (trailer, prologue, guest stars, etc) and we love the thoughtfulness!! We really leaned into a lot of silliness throughout the day, and Tati was always game and so excited to help us pull it off. We are SOOOO lucky to have had a photographer who was just as excited about the day as we all were - and a friend who fit right in with our loved ones :) If you’re considering booking Tati & Roman, do yourself a favor and DO IT!!!!!!

Hey there! My name is Emilee, and I am a Minnesota-native living in NYC! I've been photographing people and events for the past 15 years. I shoot families, couples, individuals, and pets, but my passion lies in wedding photography. I love capturing the whirlwind of a couples' big day, and seeing the love that is shared between them and all their wedding guests. It's magical and wonderful every. single. time. My current active markets are Minnesota and New York, but I'm available to travel anywhere in the US and the world for additional fees!

Awarded Best of Zola
What a dream Emilee was to work with, from start to finish. OUR CEREMONY PARTY: we decided on a private, courthouse elopement on a Wednesday, a 60 person reception party on a Friday. In both, our biggest priority was having a photographer capture the intimate, joyful small details. We went with Emilee because of her eye for the beauty in the small things. She captured both our days perfectly. DOCUMENTARY STYLE: Emilee was perfect behind the scenes, capturing beautiful moments of our friends and family, small details of the courthouse with just us. I look back at some of these photos and ask "how did she even get that?!" She has such an eye. POSED: We had about 20 minutes dedicated to posed, family photos during our reception. Emilee had our families relaxed and laughing, quickly swapping members in and out. In some newlywed photos, we sought her advice for how to pose. She gave quick direction, made us feel confident, and always found the perfect light. COMMUNICATION SPEED: Delivered on every promise, quick replies. Emilee was 15 minutes early to both locations, we never had to worry. PERSONALLY: We met with Emilee about 4 months before our big days. We had coffee, talked about our vision and our biggest priorities. She immediately felt like a friend, and knew she was firmly on our team. If you're looking for a photographer to capture not only beautiful photos of yourself, but more importantly, the feeling in every room, Emilee is the photographer for you. We recommend wholeheartedly, and can't wait for another occasion to work with her. Sincerely, Mara James

I’m Alex, a wedding photographer with 10 years of experience. My approach blends classic elegance with a documentary style, capturing both posed and candid moments that reflect the authentic atmosphere of your wedding day. Whether it’s an intimate ceremony or a larger event, I’ve had the privilege of telling love stories through my lens. Clients appreciate my attention to detail and seamless process. From guiding you through natural poses to capturing spontaneous emotions, I ensure that every important moment is beautifully documented, creating a wedding album that you’ll treasure for years to come.

There’s quite a lot to say about Alex and his work. Firstly, Alex was right on schedule and even early awaiting us. He was fully prepared and had equipment that I was not even aware we had access to. He was incredibly kind and very patient. Upon request, he provided guidance and posing insight which was a big help for us who find ourselves awkward in front of a camera. He offered his professional advice and did us a curtesy which we appreciated. He utilized the full time capturing as much content as he could and the experience was amazing. The turnaround for the pictures and his availability were also great. We have gotten only compliments on the pictures and would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a true professional. I can’t wait to have him capture more of our special moments.

Working with Sean and his team for our wedding was such a pleasure! From the moment we received the photos from our engagement shoot, we knew we had made the right decision. Sean has a natural talent for finding the perfect photo, and his calm and easy-going demeanor makes the whole process feel natural and stress-free. His entire team was extremely professional, including his assistant photographer. We used him for our videography as well and couldn't be more pleased. You will not regret booking Sean as your photographer!!

Hi! My name is Mae, and I live in Brooklyn with my girlfriend, our two dogs Apollo and Bia, her cat Gigi and my lizard, Basil! 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. Weddings and elopements are so distinctly and uniquely human, and it’s truly the biggest honor to be trusted to document them.

We had a great experience with Mae! She made us feel so comfortable throughout the whole shoot and made sure we got a bunch of great photos in some gorgeous locations. Post-shoot she put in so much effort editing our photos to make sure they were perfect once they were turned around to us which didn't take long at all. Highly highly recommend Mae for any photoshoot needs you might have!

I'm in love with human emotions, either it's laughing till it hurts or tears of happiness. When your man hugs you so strong, that you can't breathe or when your dad is crying (for the first time in his life!) listening to your vows at the altar. I do believe, that these un-staged moments are more meaningful than classy portraits on a sunset (but no worries, you'll plenty of both!) If you feel like we are on the same page - let's talk! Write me a few words about who you are, tell me your story and let's create something beautiful together!

If you are reading this, go book Dasha! The wedding photographer was the most important vendor for us. After talking to many photographers, we ended up booking Dasha and that's the best decision we've ever made. Through our engagement session, we got so comfortable in front of her camera and the photos turned out great. Ahead of the wedding, I had a final meeting with Dasha and you could tell that she cares about her couples and gives good advice on the timeline. On the wedding day, her professionalism and creativity made the day so easy for us, and we didn't need to give her a long shortlist because we trusted her. When we received the full gallery, we were so BLOWN AWAY. The editing style speaks for itself. We also loved the way she documented our special - it feels very natural and authentic. Many of our families and friends asked us who our photographer was, and we cannot recommend Dasha enough. Thank you, Dasha!!

I can’t say enough amazing things about Daniel! My husband originally found him on Snappr for our engagement shoot back in January 2024 and he was so incredible to work with, we just knew we had to book him for our wedding!! He made us feel so comfortable and made 2 awkward people look INCREDIBLE in front of the camera. He captured the most important moments of my life thus far and he did it so beautifully. All my guests loved him and appreciated all the fun pictures he took of them on the dance floor too!! LOL! I really can’t thank him enough for being such an important part of my day.
