Hello ! first and foremost, congratulations on your engagement as you embark on this new chapter of your lives. My name is Kevin and I started the ground work Kozmo Photography back in 2014. My goal has always been to capture the uniqueness of each and every couple on the biggest day of their journey together. It is therefore my belief that a great wedding photographer must be able to capture the big and small details throughout the day with minimal interference while being keenly aware of the surrounding conditions. This is my promise as I strive to deliver to each and every couple the wedding photos they deserve.

From our first interaction, Kevin at Kozmo Photography was a joy to work with. His communication was clear, quick, and incredibly kind throughout the entire process. The quality of his work was truly exceptional - Kevin has a keen eye for detail and an intuitive sense of what will make for the most special, focused shots. On our wedding day, Kevin expertly captured all the most important moments between our loved ones without us even having to say a word of direction. I would never work with anyone else and I truly cannot recommend Kozmo Photography enough. Kevin made the day easy, fun, and had a clear vision of what he was looking for even when I didn't. I'm over the moon with the final photos and will cherish them forever.

Capturing love in every color of the rainbow, Kristen Renee Photography tells authentic wedding stories through a relaxed, documentary style. Based in Albany, New York and traveling wherever love leads, Kristen and her team focus on genuine moments rather than stiff poses. From intimate elopements to vibrant celebrations, every wedding is approached with curiosity, empathy, and a deep respect for each couple’s unique story. The goal is simple: photographs that feel real, timeless, and unmistakably you.

Choosing a wedding photographer was one of the harder parts of planning for us — we weren’t really sure what to look for and didn’t know much about photography. But from the very first phone call with Kristen, it was instantly clear that she was the one. She’s incredibly organized, knows weddings inside and out, and yet somehow keeps everything feeling laid-back and easy. She made us feel relaxed and taken care of through every step. Our engagement shoot was effortless, fun, and genuinely one of our favorite memories. Kristen has this amazing way of making you feel like you’ve known her for years — warm, calm, and completely present. On our wedding day, Kristen and Sheridan worked together seamlessly. They made everyone feel comfortable, blended right in with our families and wedding party, and brought such positive energy. Kristen was familiar with our venue and knew exactly where to go for the best light and most beautiful backdrops — including places we had no idea even existed, like the rooftop and an incredible hidden attic. She coordinated with the venue team like a total pro and even helped me put in my veil! Shooting our Couple’s portraits with them was one of the most unexpectedly special parts of the day. Kristen and Sheridan made us feel like actual models while keeping it authentic and fun. There was something so meaningful about being photographed by a married couple who clearly love and support each other — it made the whole experience even more emotional and memorable. The photos? Breathtaking. Every single moment — from the big ones to the quiet in-betweens — was captured beautifully. We truly don’t know how they do it. Kristen and Sheridan will always hold a special place in our hearts, and we can’t recommend them highly enough. Do yourself a favor and book them — it’ll be one of the best decisions you make!

From the moment we inquired with CLH Images Photography for our wedding, Carrie's communication was timely, professional, and engaged. The quality of her work is exceptional - both the attention to detail and organization she brought to the planning and execution of the day and of course the photos themselves. It poured rain the few hours before the ceremony, Carrie had the perfect backup plan for where to do our first look and made the whole experience of photos of us and our families seamless. Working with her was also fun, which was something we hoped to find in our photographer because we felt really comfortable in all our interactions with her. We are over the moon with the final photos Carrie produced and could not have asked for a better person to document our wedding day.

We can’t say enough amazing things about Kristin Lavigne of Kalz Photography. We have been absolutely raving about her since the wedding — she truly exceeded every expectation. Kristin captured the most stunning photos of us, which is saying a lot coming from Travis, who normally hates taking pictures. She made us feel completely comfortable and natural in front of the camera, and the results are beyond anything we imagined. Her energy was great and immediately put everyone at ease. Kristin is attentive, kind, caring, fun, and incredibly talented. Her eye for detail is unbelievable — she knew exactly how to capture each moment and turn it into the perfect shot. She didn’t just document our wedding; she elevated it. She made our special day even more special, and we know we’ll cherish these photos for the rest of our lives. Her assistant, Arianna, and her husband were also fantastic — the three of them worked together seamlessly and were everywhere all day, capturing every moment without ever feeling intrusive. They were the perfect team, and we are so grateful we got to work with them. Choosing Kalz Photography was one of the best decisions we made. We couldn’t be happier, and we recommend Kristin with all our hearts.

Hi, I’m Bridget — but you can call me Bee, cause that’s what my friends call me! And since we’re basically already best friends, let me tell you a secret: taking pictures isn’t even the thing I love most about my job. Now, don’t get me wrong, I’m as obsessed with taking gorgeous, dripping-in-light photos that you’ll look back on for ages as much as the next photographer. But what I really love? Meeting the most kind-hearted people and getting to know them on a level much deeper than the typical client-photographer relationship.

Awarded Best of Zola
We feel incredibly lucky to have had Bridget as our wedding photographer. Looking back, she was one of the best investments we made…not just because of the stunning photos, but because of the experience she created from start to finish. After seeing her photograph other weddings at our venue, I knew she would be the perfect fit. From our very first call, she understood our style, and her organization and professionalism immediately put me at ease. She captured our day so beautifully that looking through our gallery still brings me to tears. Bridget describes herself as your "hype woman," and that couldn't be more accurate. She celebrated us throughout the entire engagement process, always offering encouragement, guidance, and thoughtful advice. We didn't book an engagement session since we had already done one while we were engaged abroad, so instead Bridget took us out to lunch before the wedding so we could get to know each other and feel comfortable together. That personal touch meant so much and made our wedding day feel even more seamless. Throughout the wedding day, she was incredibly encouraging without ever being intrusive. We never felt like we were stuck in awkward poses. Instead, she guided us with movement and prompts that brought out genuine laughter and emotion, perfectly capturing the joy and excitement of the day. She kept everything organized, gave us clear guidance leading up to the wedding, and made the entire photography process feel effortless. I truly believe Bridget is an incredible value, and our photos prove it. Her attention to detail, artistic eye, and signature style made every image feel timeless. In an age where so many people rely on their phones to document special moments, it's incredibly meaningful to have someone with the talent and vision to preserve your memories so beautifully. These photos aren't just beautiful images for social media…they genuinely captured the essence of one of the most important days of our lives. We are absolutely obsessed with our photos and couldn't be more grateful. Thank you, Bridget, for giving us memories we'll treasure forever!!

Hi friend! I'm Becca. Ever since I was little, I wanted to listen to others stories and share them with others. As a result of a college photography class that I loved and my dad's love of nature photography, I was gifted a camera after graduation, and I never stopped! I started taking photos at a performing arts center and became mesmerized with capturing joy. I have been in the wedding industry since I was fourteen and have been taking photos professionally since 2019.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot GUSH enough about Becca. She was hands down the MVP of our wedding day. In the midst of wedding planning busyness, Becca led a thorough meeting with us (the couple) going over the day-of schedule, and covering an exhaustive comprehensive list of all possible photos, helping us prioritize the ones we needed and letting go of those that may have ended up stressing us out to try to take! She made sure to be sensitive to all our hopes for photos, family dynamics, and more. I (the bride) was sick on the wedding day and had to make some adjustments to the day-of schedule, and Becca not only adjusted with such grace and flexibility, but also offered great game-time ideas to make sure we got all the photos we wanted with even less time! During the wedding, Becca stayed even longer than scheduled, was so patient but commanding with getting family photos organized, and stayed in the background throughout the day even though she was right by my (the bride!) side getting the best candid photos. That way, I was able to feel supported AND even more relaxed, she was so nimble, positive, and masterful. As I’ve said since the beginning of working with her, she is simply the BEST.

Photographing weddings and elopements is a privilege that I do not take lightly. I treat each moment with as much care as if it were my own! While I am happy to take on weddings of any size, I specialize in intimate weddings or engagement sessions where I can embrace a documentary, candid approach. My favorite moments to capture are those quiet, unplanned interactions. I adore the small details. The moments that sometimes get overlooked but often times help tell the story of your wedding day the most. I thrive with couples who aren’t afraid to be silly and embrace the moments as they come as opposed to forcing it.

JB Photography was the absolute best to work with! From the very first zoom call, Jenna’s energy, experience and passion were so clear. She is creative, thoughtful and detail-oriented - from making us feel at ease during our engagement photoshoot (the first time we ever did a “formal” shoot as a couple), through expertly navigating the wedding day timeline ensuring that every moment was captured, Jenna made sure that every detail was covered. When we received all of our photos we were blown away by how she and her team captured everything, from the smallest detail to the full group shots, in such beautiful and creative ways. Now the hard part - choosing our favorites (which we know Jenna will beautifully layout in an album which we’ll cherish forever)!

Hi, I'm Jaci Berkopec! A self portrait of me would include a frozen pizza, caesar salad bag, and a bottle of white wine. But more importantly I am a wedding, lifestyle and adventure elopement photographer based out of NYC. Weddings and elopements are one of my passions because witnessing love and marriage is one of the most beautiful things we can witness. When shooting with me, expect to have tons of fun and lots of laughs because I like to be weird! Life is too short to be normal! I photograph all types of love.

We 1000000% recommend Jaci for any of your photography needs! She took our engagement photos and shot our wedding last weekend and she is an absolute DREAM to work with. Her confidence, poise, warmth and positivity helped us stay calm and have fun during the busy wedding day. We heard so many compliments from our loved ones who were also so impressed with her attitude and demeanor. And this is all before we saw the photos: her work is UNREAL. We are truly blown away- they are stunning, and capture the JOY and FUN and LOVE we experienced. I get emotional looking at just the sneak peek gallery because it so beautifully memorializes what it felt like on that day, and now we can share it with our grandparents who couldn't make the journey, and ourselves for decades to come.

Couples receive all edited pictures on flash drives to print and share with no restrictions; plus, online viewing is always included with any coverage for at least five years. Paul Saunders Photography is the most-reviewed photography company in New York, Massachusetts, Vermont, and all of New England.

We hired Paul Saunders Wedding Photography early on and didn't worry about communicating until closer to the wedding, but Paul stayed organized and kept us in the loop every step of the way. He sent us Chris, a photographer we immediately clicked with, who had such a relaxed energy that we barely noticed he was there while he captured incredible candids. My husband and I are both introverts and get awkward in front of cameras, but Chris kept us laughing and made the whole day feel fun instead of stressful. He even remembered our guests' names and reminded us to actually eat at our reception, plus he made our first touch and vow exchange way less uncomfortable than we expected. Chris had a gift for putting us at ease while still getting stunning shots. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and would absolutely recommend Paul Saunders to any couple looking for a photographer who truly cares.

Erika was an amazing wedding photographer. We hired her for both our wedding and our engagement photos. While our engagement photos were fun, the wedding is where she truly stood out. She was so easy to work with on the day of and had a blast with our guests. We had a smaller wedding (50 people) and were initially worried about missing some key shots. However, those fears were completely unwarranted once we saw our photos! We only hired Erika and didn't have a second shooter, yet she was able to capture all of the necessary family photos we wanted, candid moments, and even impromptu photo requests from guests. The photos we received were of such high quality. We had specifically told her we liked the look of black and white photos, and we received several back in our preferred editing style. The photos came back in about 6 weeks, which is incredibly fast for weddings! We also received a sneak peek within 3 or 4 days. We highly recommend Erika!

Holly and Jim are a husband and wife photographic duo in Schoharie County NY, covering the Catskills, Hudson Valley and Upstate NY Capital Region. We primarily do photography in the Catskill Mountains, Adirondacks, Saratoga Springs, Albany, Hudson Valley, Berkshires, Poconos & Vermont Green Mountain areas.

From our first conversation with Out of the Ordinary Photography, we knew we had found the right fit for our wedding day. They were responsive to all our questions and truly understood what we wanted, making us feel heard throughout the entire planning process. Having two photographers was a game-changer—one captured me getting ready while the other photographed my husband, and they worked together so seamlessly that we barely noticed they were there. They took stunning photos of us in nature and nailed every moment on the dance floor, but what really stood out was how comfortable they made us feel. They embraced our goofiness and let our personalities shine through in every shot, which is exactly what we hoped for. We can't recommend Out of the Ordinary Photography enough—their knowledge and reliability made the whole experience worthwhile.

My name is Maisie and I am SO. DARN. EXCITED you are here! Celebrating and capturing you cool cats and kittens is one of my FAVORITE things to do and I am so stoked to share in your story. It’s not about the photos. It’s about you. It’s being playful and emotional; it’s being authentic; it’s creating something that is effortlessly you. I am known for my genuine, immersive, classic images and my easy-going, joyful nature from booking to gallery completion.

Our photographer, Maisie Snyder Photography, was absolutely incredible. Her photos speak for themselves, you can see how talented she is from her website and social media, but what you can’t fully capture from that is just how wonderful she is as a person and how easy she makes the entire experience. She was so organized and helpful leading up to the wedding, making sure we felt prepared and ready for the whole weekend. And as a family with kids, this was especially important, she was amazing with my stepdaughters. Photographing kids isn’t always easy, but she connected with them so naturally and made everything feel fun and comfortable. Honestly, I don’t even know how she got some of the photos she did as I barely noticed her half the time, but somehow she didn’t miss a single moment. She captured everything so beautifully and authentically. These are photos our family will cherish for the rest of our lives. As someone who loves photos, this was one of the most important decisions for me and I can confidently say we made the perfect choice with Maisie. I would 100000% recommend her.
