Love, Melissa 
Rating: 5.0 (4 reviews)
Manhattan, NY
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,000

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.

We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer than Melissa! She was so easy to work with every step of the way. She was responsive and organized but more importantly, you could tell that she genuinely wanted to make our day as special as possible. Neither of us are used to being photographed, but she created a comfortable and relaxed atmosphere which made it all feel natural and even fun. ("Flirty hands!") She truly has a gift for capturing genuine moments without making anything feel forced. And our photos turned out absolutely stunning! Everything is beautifully composed and full of emotion. Each time I look back at our photos, I just remember how happy we felt in each of those moments. I truly cannot recommend Melissa enough. Hiring her was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! 3

  • Photojournalistic style

  • Serves Manhattan, NY

We’re Milan and Nata, the husband-and-wife team behind Photo Cine Art. We’ve called Punta Cana home for over 20 years and have spent the last 16 years photographing and filming weddings across the Dominican Republic. Milan is our lead photographer, combining candid documentary moments with creative editorial portraits, while Nata manages, coordinates and edits everything behind the scenes. Together, we focus on real emotions, natural moments and beautiful wedding stories that feel true to each couple.

Our experience with this photography team was absolutely incredible from beginning to end. From the very first conversation, communication was fast, easy, and completely effortless. They were always quick to respond, both before and after the wedding, and made the entire process feel simple and stress-free. They took the time to understand what we wanted, worked with our budget, and helped create a package that was perfect for our wedding. On the wedding day, the whole team made everyone feel so comfortable in front of the camera. Nothing felt forced or awkward, and they had such a natural way of working with us and our families. They knew when to step in and guide us, but they also knew when to simply let the moment happen and capture it naturally. That was so important to us because the photos are one of the few things you get to keep and look back on for the rest of your life. The pictures turned out even better than we could have imagined. They captured so many beautiful details, emotional moments, and candid memories throughout the day. Our family especially loved the reception photos because they truly showed how much fun everyone was having. Every photo feels full of personality and emotion, and looking through them brings us right back to that day. One of the things that impressed us the most was the energy the team brought to the reception. It was a very hot day, and at first some of our guests were hesitant to get on the dance floor. The team helped create such a fun atmosphere and even started a game that got everyone laughing, involved, and eventually dancing. They didn't feel like people who were simply there to take pictures. They genuinely became part of the celebration and helped make the reception even more memorable. We also really appreciated how smooth everything was after the wedding. Communication stayed just as quick and easy, and we never felt like we had to chase anyone for answers or updates. That level of professionalism made the whole experience even better. We truly could not be happier with our decision. Milan and his team clearly put so much heart into what they do, and their kindness, professionalism, and dedication show in both the experience they provide and the final photos. We are so grateful we found them and now have such beautiful memories from our wedding. We would recommend this team without hesitation to any future bride and groom. Choosing them was truly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding!

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.

We cannot recommend Justin enough! He is a fun, bubbly, and genuinely kind person who truly cares about his clients. He took the time to get to know us personally before the big day, and his organized process made everything feel effortless. The final photos are STUNNING and we'll cherish them forever. If you want a photographer who goes above and beyond, Justin is the one!

Millie Elangbam Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (34 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $10,000
  • Serves Manhattan, NY

Hi, my name is Millie! I picked up a camera 11 years ago and I've been wholeheartedly devoted to this craft ever since. Through photography, I've come to understand that the meaningful connections I form with others hold a special significance for me and should be documented. My journey has naturally directed me toward wedding photography, enabling me to translate your love into art. To me, nothing compares to distilling love into photographs.

Awarded Best of Zola
We first met Millie about four years ago when she was building her photography portfolio and looking for couples to shoot engagement photos with. From the very beginning, we were struck by her kind, calming presence and her incredible eye for capturing authentic moments. We loved her style so much that we asked her to photograph our courthouse wedding soon after—and that was just the beginning of a beautiful friendship. Since then, Millie has been there for nearly every major life moment we've experienced. She took the most stunning boudoir photos for me—something completely out of my comfort zone but made effortless by her professionalism and warmth. I turned those photos into a little book as a gift for my husband when he travels, and it's still one of our favorite keepsakes. Later, when I was pregnant, Millie reached out again about maternity photos. I was really struggling at the time—physically and emotionally—and almost passed on the idea altogether. But Millie gently reminded me how meaningful it could be to capture that season, even if it didn’t feel picture-perfect. I’m so glad we listened. The photos we took just a week before our daughter was born are now some of my most treasured. Shortly after, Millie came to our apartment to do newborn photos with our baby girl. She made the experience so easy and sweet, even during the sleep-deprived chaos of new parenthood. We’ve since moved out of state, but we’ll absolutely continue to reach out to Millie for future milestones—she’s truly become part of our family’s story. It’s been such a joy to watch her work evolve and grow over the years. She brings not only talent and skill to every shoot, but heart. Don’t hesitate for a second—book Millie. She’s the kind of photographer (and person) you want by your side for life’s biggest moments.

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
Emma Cleary Photo and Video was an absolute joy to work with. They captured all of the romantic energy, the emotions, and every little detail in between that was so important to us. From our first interaction, Emma delivered such a reassuring feeling and the decision to book them was instantaneous. Subsequent to booking, Emma was extremely responsive, helpful, reassuring, and professional. She and her team made us feel completely at ease and comfortable in front of the camera, which allowed them to capture the most stunning, candid moments throughout our special day (which we aren’t normally the most photogenic). Our lead photographer was Asya, who photographed with Kate and our videographers were George and Kamil. Each and every one of them brought such a calming presence and genuine excitement that we couldn't imagine our wedding day without them. The dedication and passion they have was evident upon meeting them, and they backed it up with the stunning photos and videos they delivered. We have spent hours looking at the final products they have sent us, and we really could not be happier. Our day would not have been as special without them.

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! 🙂

Having two photographers was a key differentiator for us because we knew that it would allow us to capture all of the important moments from our wedding day. Tati and Roman are both so genuinely warm, kind, and very easy to work with. They were quick to respond to all of our questions leading up to our wedding and also helped us organize our day-of-timeline in a way that allowed us to get all of the photos that we wanted while also providing us with plenty of time to be present and have fun with friends and family. Tati and Roman made us and all of our friends and family feel comfortable when taking photos and provided guidance when needed to ensure that we got the perfect shots. We were blown away when we got our wedding photos and are so happy with how they turned out! Tati and Roman captured all of the beautiful and authentic moments from that night and you can feel the love that was in the room. We cannot thank Tati and Roman enough and are so happy that we were able to work with them.

I don’t even know where to start when it comes to Shelby. To put into perspective how much I absolutely love her work, we not only hired her for our city hall wedding, but also hired her and her partner Jordan (videographer) for our big wedding. They also just photographed my cousin Kate’s wedding this past weekend. Kate met Shelby and Jordan at my big wedding, and absolutely fell in love with not only their work, but them as people. My partner and I aren’t good at taking photos. We are very awkward, and feel uncomfortable being the center of attention. But Shelby made it SO EASY and SO FUN for us. Not only were our photos beyond our expectations, the video Jordan created for us was absolutely out of this world. They are such incredible human beings, and both so talented. I plan to use Shelby and Jordan for every event in the future.

Not only are her photos incredible, she is also a super organized and effective communicator, which makes pre-wedding planning and organizing all of the photos during the event SO EASY. She's captured family photos for me a couple of times, and they're some of my most treasured photos. She's also just a super kind, lovely person to be around - which is super important when you'll be spending so much of your wedding day with your photographer! She adds so much ease to the experience and turns out incredible photos with tons of thoughtfully edited photos to choose from.

For months up to the wedding, she stayed in touch and when it came to the day it felt like we’d known her for years! During the day she was like a ninja! You never saw her but she was everywhere! From the complimentary engagement photos, to the day of our wedding, Celeste captured so many lovely moments between people we love so dearly and we will treasure these pictures forever!

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.

Mae was an absolute pleasure to work with. I knew I liked her from the very first call. She was thorough and asked good questions to make sure she could capture what we wanted. 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'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!

Awarded Best of Zola
We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer than Dasha! From our very first email exchange, we could feel her amazing energy—she was so friendly, easy to talk to, and incredibly professional. When we learned that she had recently shot a wedding at our venue and hotel, we knew we were in great hands. Neither of us take a lot of pictures (and usually don’t take them well!), so we were nervous about the process. But Dasha immediately put us at ease. She met with us in our neighborhood a couple of months before the wedding, and her warmth, confidence, and expertise reassured us every step of the way. On the big day, she was incredibly kind, patient, and made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera. She brought out the best in us, and the results speak for themselves—the photos are absolutely unreal! We couldn’t be happier and couldn’t recommend Dasha more highly.

After working 10+ years in corporate America in NYC, California and traveling the globe, I found myself wanting more than what the traditional career path had set for me. I stumbled into photography while I was on maternity leave with my oldest and started a side hustle that I had no idea was going to turn into a complete career change years later. From the very first wedding I shot, I knew I was onto something. And ever since then, I haven't looked back.

She captured us in our true moments, not staged, and the photos turned out beyond amazing. So beautiful, natural, and full of life. Loved the Polaroid and film shots too.

I photograph weddings for couples who want something emotionally real and visually distinct — not overly polished. I am more likely to accept bookings with sooner dates - I cannot book further than 1 year out.

I wish I could leave more stars! We had a vision of taking fun photos in the bar we met for our engagement and Bri brought that vision to the next level! She’s an artist and a professional, who really listens and takes care in every shot. She not only made sure we were happy with the experience but she let us in the process to make sure we would capture what we wanted. I’m an extremely camera shy bride but you would never know from looking at the end result. Bri made me feel so confident and comfortable. I forgot about the camera pressure or how my body might look because I trusted her and the process, and i’m so happy I did. Even the playlist she had set the right vibe and we could really relax to get photos that feel like us!

What do you imagine your wedding to be like? Imagination is a nice gift we have. It helps us building our identities and shaping our individual uniqueness. Imagining carries a degree of anticipation, depending on our past experiences and who we are, of how something that hasn't happened yet is going to be when it actually happens. Like traveling to a place where we've never been before and we take photos of its landscapes and people living there: we tend to capture in those photographs how we had imagined that place. A wedding is a destination in the journey of life, perhaps the most important one.

Annika, Renzo, and Elena were absolutely amazing. We got married at the Wire Event Center in Coxsackie, NY, and they did a fantastic job shooting the venue! Every photo was absolutely stunning and the videos were spectacular too. Not only was the work beautiful, but the whole Magic Flute team was such a pleasure to work with and were so nice. I could not have asked for a better team to shoot my wedding!

Hi! You found me! There is nothing I love more than capturing people in their element, whether that be laughing during a portrait session or smiling at the person they love. I think it is crucial to allow clients to feel their best, look their best, and to treasure these memories forever. I specialize in portraits, headshots, fashion photography, engagements, and weddings. I have fallen in love with NYC and the beauty that can be captured through the lens. I always bring in the city to a couple's love, especially if their story started here. I can't wait to work with you and give you the photo experience that everyone deserves to have!

I could not be happier that we booked Emily to shoot our wedding- I'll treasure these photos forever! I'm floored by Emily's work. I was familiar with her work before booking her, and I was still blown away (and I've still only seen our preview album!) My friends and family have all been floored by the photos too. It was also such a pleasure having Emily there and part of our day. She's as friendly and professional as you could possibly hope. It takes a lot of trust to capture important days, and Emily deserves and has earned that trust! I can't recommend her highly enough!
