IN AN OCEAN OF PEOPLE, I'M EXCITED YOU FOUND ME! Send inquiry via my web allthefeels,club | I'm Mucci, a romantic storyteller who has been using photography, video and motion graphic to communicate, with over 17 years of experience. That's over half of my life! I am inspired by genuine connections, fresh air, a car ride, vulnerability, sunlight and foggy days, backyard gatherings, misty rain, singing out loud, visual poetry, and so much more. My style combines wedding photojournalism with fine art photography, resulting in nostalgic, romantic, candid photos.

From the moment we first spoke with Mucci, we knew we had found our perfect wedding photographer. Her communication was prompt, personable, and knowledgeable, putting us at ease throughout the entire process. Mucci truly brought our vision to life, capturing our special day in a magical, film-like way that is both classic and perfect. They made us feel completely comfortable, never rushing us and allowing us to simply enjoy our moments together. We had some specific concepts in mind that Mucci had never done before, but she leaned in, explored the idea with us, and ended up capturing us flawlessly!! No idea was ever shot down, Mucci was open to our suggestions and collaborated with us to make our wedding photography dreams a reality. The turnover was incredibly fast, we received our gallery to share with family and friends within 1-2 days! We are over the moon with the results and cannot recommend Mucci highly enough.

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.

Sean gave us an incredible experience with stunning results. He was punctual, professional, and gave very clear instructions for his shoots. He also was very excited to be a part of the process and involved in our special day. When it came time for the ceremony and reception, he was sure to stay out of the spotlight and took incredible pictures without us having to remember that he was there. 10/10 experience and 10/10 quality on the final photo results. We would highly recommend him for any event you may have coming up!

  • Photojournalistic style

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

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.

  • 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.

Watching Milan document our growing family over the years has been incredibly special. He captures not just smiles, but emotion, connection, personality, and love in a way that feels authentic and deeply artistic. Every gallery tells a story. Every image feels alive. What makes Milan & Nata(his wife) so spectacular is that they pour their entire heart into their work. You can feel his passion in every interaction and see it in every photograph he delivers. He has given our family memories that we will cherish forever, and there truly are not enough words to express how grateful we are for his talent and dedication. Milan is, without question, the best. “Well, what can we say about Milan except that, he is AMAZING!! From our first interaction via email prior to our wedding in 2019 he has been above and beyond. He is attentive, energetic, personable, respectful, patient and quite funny. What else can you ask for! Milan, captured every detail of the wedding day from every angle. Our guests were even impressed at how quick and incognito he was throughout the wedding. Our second interaction was for our photoshoot a couple of days after the wedding at Altos De Chavon. What an experience that was! Milan’s visionary eye and level of art for his passion is extraordinary. Our next encounter in 2022 was nothing short of the first 2. Upon returning to DR with our son, I asked Milan for a family photoshoot. WOW!! The photos he captured with our non cooperating 2 year old are out of this world. We had 2 more family shoot sessions December 2024 and again in May 2026 — and, each experience keeps getting better. Milan, is truly the best of the best of the best. He puts his entire heart into his work.

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.

Justin captured every moment of our wedding day beautifully, with stunning attention to detail and creativity.

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.

Best word to describe Millie…UNMATCHED! Millie has been so responsive from DAY 1. She photographed our engagement session back in April 2023. She was just as invested in checking the weather for that weekend as much as I was! She made the experience so seemless and the photos came out effortlessly and captured our love even though we were camera shy. Aside from being our photographer for our engagment session - she also photographed our wedding recently (June 2024) and through our numerous video calls she made a timeline! This was so helpful with planning! We received our gallery in such a short period of time that I was in such disbelief. I lived the photos and our story she captured - I will forever be grateful!

Awarded Best of Zola
We had such a wonderful experience working with Sean for both our engagement photos and our wedding day. From the start, he was flexible, communicative, detail-oriented, and incredibly responsive. Since being in front of the camera doesn’t come naturally to us, we were a little nervous — but Sean made the entire experience feel comfortable and easy. Both our engagement and wedding photos came out absolutely beautiful. On the wedding day especially, he was calm and steady on our chaotic (but amazing!) day. Looking back at our photos, we’re still in awe of how he managed to capture so many special moments — it honestly feels like he was in multiple places at once. We are so grateful for his talent and professionalism and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a photographer who truly captures it all.

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.

Hi, I'm Celeste, I'm from a small town in Spain. Now leaving in NY. I have spent the last seven years getting to know new humans and documenting their stories and connections. How they got into that point of their life, and what makes them light up. I feel it is quite a responsibility and a significant honor to be able to create this legacy for them.

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Celeste (and her second shooter) for our wedding and are incredibly happy with our decision. From the engagement shoot to our wedding day Celeste has been such a professional and a pleasure to be around. We do not love attention so we greatly appreciate how easy she is to work with, and how natural everything felt during our photo shoots. At our engagement shoot, she made us feel so incredibly comfortable (coming from two people who are admittedly very camera shy and not big on PDA), and we ended up with the most gorgeous and effortlessly cool shots. Celeste brought amazing energy on our wedding day, and helped bring out the best of us in pictures. Celeste was thorough in preparing the wedding day shot list ahead of time, and got all of the portraits we wanted. We experienced some bad weather at the beginning of the day, and Celeste took all of the stress away by finding the most stunning indoor & covered spots for first look and portraits, and arranging for outdoor pictures when the weather cleared up. Best of all, she was able to turn around a preview / sample of the wedding photos within a day (!!!), so we were able to show her beautiful work to everyone who asked to see pictures during the weeks following our wedding. We are so incredibly happy with outcome of the photos and we couldn’t say enough great things about Celeste’s artistry and the experience of working with her. 11/10 would recommend Celeste for both her professionalism and quality of work. We will absolutely be hiring Celeste in the future if we ever need professional photographs!

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!!

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.

My experience working with Bee Roll Media was amazing. My wife and I both needed headshots for new jobs we were starting, and also wanted to do a fun couples shoot for holiday cards. The photographer Brianna made us feel super comfortable in front of the camera and styled us to look our best. I got many compliments from colleagues for how professional my headshot was and was asked if they could get the photographer’s contact to do their own. As for the couples shoot, we had tons of fun. The studio had an awesome retro vibe that totally fit our aesthetic and we felt like we were models in an 80’s catalogue. She even shot on film to boost the retro look! People loved the holiday card we sent out and so did we! 10/10 would definitely recommend!

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!

Awarded Best of Zola
I had the pleasure of working alongside Em on a recent event at Aldrich Mansion with my company Just A Girl Events as the day of coordinator and I can confidently say that she is so absolutely talented. Emilys ability to capture the essence of each moment with creativity and precision is truly remarkable. Throughout our collaboration, I was consistantly impressed by her professionalism and dedication. She has an exceptional eye for detail, and the resulting images tell a compelling story, showcasing the emotion and beauty of the event Working with her was a seamless and enjoyable experience. She is reliable, PUNCTUAL and adaptable, going above and beyond to ensure the best possible outcome for the client. I highly recommend Emily Cullum to anyone in need of a skilled and passionate photographer.

Justace Faith Photo

  • Photojournalistic style

  • Serves Manhattan, NY

Based in the Philadelphia and New York City areas, serving couples worldwide. Justace is a film wedding photographer specializing in true to color imagery with a creative flair. Her work is for the couple who wants to create art while having their wedding day documented in a real and story-like way.

My husband and I can't say enough great things about Justace. Her work speaks for itself- simply beautiful! From the personalized gifts she gives, to her JFP planning guide magazine she sends- the whole planning process with her is amazing! The photos you will get are timeless, and crisp! She cares about the small details just as much as the big ones. Justace is amazing with communication, and very helpful. Having a talented photographer for your wedding is important but this person being kind, fun and sharing the same Christian values as us was just as important! We didn't have to pick between those two standards when we hired Justace! I look forward to having more shoots with her in the future!
