Awarded Best of Zola
Rebeca and Andrew were great! From the moment we first reached out to them about booking, they have always been very genuine and helpful. Rebeca was very good with remembering what shots & poses I wanted. We ran behind on timing due to other reasons so I was worried we wouldn't get all the pictures done in time before the ceremony but they were great at making sure we got what we wanted. We got over 100 sneak peak photos a few days after the wedding and so far we love everything! Cannot wait to see more and would recommend R&A to anyone! Also highly recommend doing your engagement photos with them as it was a great way to get to know them & get comfortable before the big day!

MJC IMAGE

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $5,000
  • Serves Manhattan, NY

Hey, I'm Mary! It's nice to meet you. Summing up who I am in an "about me" is always difficult. What you must know: (1) I'm a nerd. If you want to talk video games, LOTR or Doctor Who, we HAVE to sit down for a bourbon or a coffee. (2) Yes, I will be out on that dance floor with you snapping away while joining in on the fun. And (3), while I'm a photographer first, supporting you during the planning process feels crucial to me - from building a timeline to having your back any way I can. Woman/LGBTQIA+ Owned

Awarded Best of Zola
WE LOVE MJC IMAGE !!!! Mary is the absolute best !!! With any questions we had Mary responded instantly, she was fabulous with communication. If I overloaded her with questions, as every bride does, she would squeeze me in quickly with a zoom or ft call. She is super busy so her quality of response time was so appreciated. The second I saw Mary’s work, I knew I had to have her photograph my wedding. My husband and I had never done a photo shoot before our wedding, so we did an engagement shoot to get a little practice in before the wedding. Mary made us feel so at ease, we thought it would be awkward, Nope! Mary instantly felt like a friend we knew forever. Not to mention her pictures from both engagement shoot and wedding day are my favorite pictures ever taken. If you’re looking for a photographer Mary is your best option !

Mei Day Photography

  • Starts at $1,200
  • Serves Manhattan, NY

Hi, I'm Mei! I first started out in photography just taking photos of friends in college, and now I get to photograph weddings, performances, celebrations, special events, and everything in between. Whether you're a natural in front of the camera or you hide whenever one comes out (like me!), I'm ready to capture you at your most radiant.

Awarded Best of Zola
I am not exaggerating when I say that the thing we have gotten the most complements on since our special day is the photos themselves. Mei is phenomenal at capturing tender and exuberant moments AS THEY HAPPEN. Nothing looks staged because nothing felt staged. She was there with us to make every step of what could have been a very stressful day feel as fun, loving, and exciting as possible. From booking to planning to the wedding weekend itself, Mei was communicative, gentle, and intentional. She wasn't just there to capture the weekend, she improved it in every way. I could not imagine a better photographer to work with—from communication to vibes to the photos themselves, Mei is the best of the best!

Mikkel Paige Photography

  • Classic style
  • Serves Manhattan, NY

Mikkel Paige Photography doesn't simply take photos - she creates them. She'll laugh and joke with you to get those smiles going to make you feel comfortable in front of the camera so you’re free to be yourselves. Her vibrant photos resonate with couples who gravitate towards color and the details. Mikkel is an avid traveler and will go any distance to capture love and work with fun-loving couples, from the Caribbean, to California, Walt Disney World, Norway and beyond.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring Mikkel was one of the first things I did when I got engaged. I let her know immediately the dates we had in mind so I was sure that she would be our wedding photographer. The truth is, I gave her very little direction on what I wanted because I trusted her vision and work completely. The day of the wedding, our entire family was so impressed at how well she knew everyone's name, our entire family dynamic, as well as our location (we did a destination wedding and Mikkel made sure to do a full walkthrough of the entire property beforehand). We still joke about how much little involvement we had because we felt so comfortable working with her! I will say this time and time again, hire someone you trust and know will give you peace of mind. Mikkel captured every moment so beautifully and seamlessly I almost forgot we were being photographed. Hands down the best decision we made!

In an age of algorithms, hashtags, and followers photography has taught Alex the true importance of the human connection. To him, photography is more than composing a beautiful shot or finding the best light. It’s about finding moments that shares with the viewer a special insight into the couples, the friends, that he has the privilege to document. He strives to capture feelings and emotions that take people back to special moments worth remembering for generations to come.

Awarded Best of Zola
Alex and his team were phenomenal. My wife and I just got back from visiting family for the holidays and they are still talking about how much they loved Alex and his team. Alex, Vlad and the team drove to upstate NY to capture our day! Since my wife and I live in NC, we had not met Alex before our wedding day but that was not an issue at all because he arrived early to learn who was in our family and bridal party. This allowed him to get all of our must-have pictures. Even though our day has passed, Alex continues to be extremely responsive. On Christmas, we were having difficulty accessing our video to show to family so we email Alex, not expecting a response...it was Christmas day. Within 5 minutes Alex responded with our video links so that we could share with family. Many of our friends have gotten engaged in the last several weeks and we are recommending Alex to all of them.

I was voted Friendliest in high school (very proud of that fact), and I genuinely love what I do. I cry at every wedding, and I usually cry again when I'm editing your photos. I used to be an actor on Broadway and TV, and I think that makes me a stickler for making sure your photos are authentic and believable. (And I will help you get there!) I'm married to a wonderful man, so I've been through the wedding planning from the other side (ahh!), and we have an adorable little dog. :)

David and I have collaborated on so many weddings together, and every time he knocks it out of the park. Both his personality and the quality of the work make him someone I always want to recommend to my clients.

Our services include Photography, Videography, Live Music, DJ, Lighting, Photo Booth, and Other services for Weddings, Corporate Events, Parties, and more. We operate across the USA, Canada, & Europe, and travel around the world.

Throughout our planning process, we made a “date night” of watching random people’s wedding videos and looking through galleries to help pick our vendors. When we came across Lightwave I said “Oh, this is what I want.” And I felt that way the entire time! Lightwave takes great care in meeting with their couples to go over the vision, the details, and the logistics to make the magic happen on the wedding day. We had a team of two photographers and two videographers, and we were in great hands. Our gallery & video media are absolutely stunning… makes us both cry every time we look at it! The artistry is amazing and the budget is worth it. We also booked Silver Arrow Band, their sister company, and that was FANTASTIC!

We cannot say enough great things about Angelica and her team! We are one of those awkward people that don't take many photos, but thanks to our engagement session and our wedding photos, along with Angelica's coaching, we looked great in our photos and always had a blast in our photo shoots! Our wedding and engagement photos are amazing. When we think we were feeling awkward, our photos just show us in-love and having fun. There are many romantic photos that cater to my personality, and my husband loves the editorial look of many shots. Angelica is worth saving up and booking. We are glad our friend recommended her. Thank you Angelica! Everyone, just book her! You will not regret it!

Sasha Chou Photography Studio

Hi, I am Sasha. I am the creator of Sasha Chou Photography Studio and PicVoyage. I’ve always had a passion for photography. Yet, it wasn’t until I specifically started working as a wedding photographer that I understood the real power of capturing a once-in-a-lifetime kind of moment. I love to travel. I have visited over 35 countries and still counting. I love dancing, especially ballroom dancing. If I am not working, you will find me dancing Latin, Salsa, Samba, Waltz, and Tango at Manhattan Soho studio. I love family and friends. One of my favorite things is to hang out with family or friends for a lovely Sunday brunch.

We had such a great time working with Sasha and her team of photographers and videographers for our wedding. Sasha was always quick to respond to us starting from our initial inquiry to everything else that came after, and especially when discussing changes to ensure we were on the same page before moving forward. She was very easy to work with and spent ample time with us during planning to ensure we were comfortable with the photographers' and videographers' styles. She also ensured the team was well aware of all the events and moments that we wanted captured. The team was fantastic on the wedding day. We had a full day with 3 different stops between Brooklyn and Manhattan that included two Chinese tea ceremonies, and pre-wedding photos all in the hours before the ceremony and reception. The team arrived early to each location, never missing a beat. Every moment that we asked for was beautifully captured in our photos and videos. We purchased three photo albums, one for ourselves which was included in the package, and two more for our respective families. Our albums were unfortunately in production and shipped during the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, the albums were in poor condition. We brought this up to Sasha's attention and she immediately agreed that they were not up to her standards and expectations. Sasha did not hesitate to call us and presented us with a couple of alternatives within a day. Ultimately, the new albums came two weeks later and were even better than what we hoped for. They are perfect! We love our photos, videos, and photo albums. Sasha and her team were very easy to work with and always listened to our input. We highly recommend Sasha Chou Photography to other couples for their big day!

My clients and even wedding guests often comment on my calm demeanor in the midst of a wedding day "crisis" (yes, they happen at every wedding). I definitely attribute this to my time in the entertainment industry. My goal is to be a place of peace and calm for you, not just on your wedding day, but throughout the wedding planning process. In short: I'm going to help you (over) prepare for the best day ever, and when we need to pivot, you can count on me to be easy going and along for the ride.

Georgia blew our expectations out of the water on our wedding day! Not only did I feel like she was one of my friends alongside me all day, making sure we got the money shots & keeping it fun- she also came an hour earlier than we planned/ paid for just to be overly prepared and cover all her bases. She made us and our friends and family feel so comfortable and the photos look so authentic because of it. It’s clear this is her passion and she DELIVERSSSS!! We’re so obsessed with our photos and are so so grateful to have worked with Georgia on such an important day.

I can’t recommend Kala enough. She has photographed countless special moments for my family, friends, and even my pets. We started working together when she photographed my wedding in Vermont. She captured the day so perfectly and we have stunning photos. She’s photographed my growing family, from infant photos to first birthdays. She is a pleasure to work with. Kala is very timely and provides sneak peak photos usually 1 day after the event. She does an excellent job editing photos and will work with you if you have any feedback. I love working with her and highly recommend her!!
