Billy and BGF Photography were nothing short of amazing. From our first planning phone call it was evident that Billy was going to be the perfect fit for us. His experience made everything regarding pictures seamless rather than stressful. We are so happy that the pictures from our special day came out as wonderful as they did. Every shot we could’ve wanted was perfect and the candids from throughout the night are everything we wanted. The video he put together for us was so beautiful and thoughtful. It’s pretty clear Billy has a great handle on wedding photography and we couldn’t recommend him enough to anyone looking for a true professional.

I hired Matt to capture my sister's engagement photos on New Year's Eve, and he delivered beyond expectations! Andrew, her fiancé, arranged the surprise at the Port Jeff Rinx, and Matt was absolutely incredible. He came prepared with ice skates, effortlessly gliding on the rink to get the perfect shots. His creativity, professionalism, and expertise were evident in every moment—he is truly a master of his craft. The photos were stunning, and Matt's ability to capture the emotion and joy of the occasion was remarkable. I can’t wait to work with him again in the future. Highly recommend!

Creativity has played a role in my life ever since I was a little girl. I grew up in upstate NY loving the outdoors and being close to the mountains! Although I loved where I grew up, when I graduated high school I decided to move South to Georgia to pursue a degree. While studying Fine Arts at the Savannah College of Art and Design, I fell in love with photography. I received my B.F.A in photography and then moved back home to NY where I became busy photographing weddings.

Meghan shot our summer camp wedding in September of 2023 and did an amazing job! We asked Meghan to come early to our wedding to capture our guests enjoying the various camp activities and the pictures came out fantastic! Her attention to detail and photographic composition skills are great and her photos really tell the story of our special day. As a testament to the previous statement, we had a full moon and clear sky on our wedding night and Meghan had the idea to get a shot of us together under the moonlight which made for a fantastic picture! Meghan's communication, professionalism, and skills are top notch and we would highly recommend her for your special day!!

I am a queer, New York City-based photographer documenting candid joy and human connection. Drawn to emotion and the beauty in everyday moments, I approach my work with mindfulness and intuition – balancing gentle guidance with an observational presence. What I value most about my job is the ability to connect with people and witness their stories unfold in raw, vulnerable ways. I hope that my work is a reflection of these moments: honest, emotive, and intentionally seen.

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I got married on June 28, 2024, and I can confidently say our wedding would not have been ours without Emma. She came on recommendation to me, and it was like we were destined to meet. Emma completely understood our vision (my husband and I are both creatives, so we had a VERY detailed one!) and worked with us to get the photos and Super 8 video we wanted. She was so professional, keeping us on time, on track, and ensuring that we stayed on schedule. She is masterful at wrangling family members for photos and capturing those small, intimate moments nobody else would think to capture. (My cousin texted me after the wedding to say, excitedly, that her purse and shoes were captured on camera and she loved it!) Hiring Emma for our photographer was the easiest and best decision my husband and I made on our wedding day. We wish we could get married again so that we can hang out with her more! Hire her!

Hey there! My name is Marilyn. I live in New York City with my sweet partner, and our orange cat Maple. I’m an introverted, soft-hearted mush with an insatiable need to document the beauty in life. Practicing self-portraits in middle school eventually led me to pursue my photography degree from New York University, and I have been joyfully creating photos of wedding days ever since. To me, weddings are a magical display of the human spirit. It’s my biggest honor and joy to create imagery that captures that human magic - especially in a way that breaks the boundaries of historically gendered traditions.

In the 20 years that I've been photographing professionally, I’ve honed my skill of knowing when to step in and make things happen, and when to step back and simply *allow* things to happen. Documenting the REAL emotion of the day is how we capture those picture-perfect moments. They happen organically, not by force, and I promise you: we're not going to miss ANY of them. = )

Christopher was the perfect choice for our wedding photographer. From the moment we met him at our engagement shoot, my husband and I felt completely at ease and truly cared for throughout the entire process. Christopher's warm and professional demeanor put us right at ease, and he made sure we were able to truly enjoy our day. His assistant Danica was also equally as talented, professional, and kind. The photos were beautiful and captured all the perfect moments. We highly recommend Christopher and his team to any couple looking for an experienced, talented, and genuinely kind photographer.

I have been a photographer for the last 20 years, shooting weddings, elopements and portraits. I'm proud to have shot more than 150 same-sex weddings, which is probably more than, well, just about anyone. That said, I’ve worked with as many straight couples as LGBTQ ones. I don't discriminate. There are many other photographers whose work inspire me, but my primary inspiration comes from painters. Rembrandt, Vermeer, Sargent, to name a few.

Steven photographed our wedding and prepared photos and an album for us. His work throughout was excellent, from input on a schedule for photos during the event, to posing the family and guests, suggesting positive changes to some steps of the ceremony, capturing great moments, keeping the day on track, and working with us on the album. His layout and editing for the album were terrific, very professional, attentive to themes and telling the story through images, and with a great eye for combinations. We recommend Steven without hesitation for your special days!

From the very beginning she was so responsive and helpful, and she really guided him through the whole process. She made everything so easy for him and was on top of every detail. When we finally met her in person she was even more wonderful than we expected. She is honestly the sweetest. So accommodating, so kind, and just incredibly understanding. She made us feel completely comfortable and relaxed the entire time. The photos are absolutely beautiful. The way she captured the little moments between us is something I will always treasure.

You know that all encompassing feeling when you’re revisiting a vivid memory? You can smell the fresh air, feel the way the sun hits your face just so, hear the voice of the loved one next to you, remember the joke that they delivered and instantly you’re laughing all over again. That magic is what I hope to capture as your photographer. It’s my job to hold those moments in time so that they don’t have to fade. You’ll forever be able to revisit the moment, see the exact way they smiled, revisit that incredible sunset, relive the memory and turn back time.

Awarded Best of Zola
We knew Jess would take great photos — we’d already done our engagement shoot with her and loved her work — but on our wedding day, she truly outdid herself. From the moment she arrived, she picked up on exactly what we needed. I (the bride) was feeling overwhelmed by how many people were in the room while I was getting dressed, and Jess immediately noticed. She said all the right things to calm me down and even offered to kindly ask people to step out so I could breathe. Throughout the day, she kept everything running smoothly. She knew how to make us laugh, how to organize big groups effortlessly, and how to move things along quickly — which I especially appreciated since I’m not one for endless posed photos. Jess doesn’t just take stunning pictures; she takes the time to really get to know you beforehand, and that personal connection shines through in her work. Our experience with her was so wonderful, it honestly feels like we made a new friend. We can’t recommend her enough!

My sister made a suggestion to make sure to meet your photographer and vibe with them; they are going to be with you the WHOLE day! The second we started speaking with Steve we knew he was our guy. Getting to know us and our vision, asking all the right questions to understand our expectations and fully deliver. He’s knowledgeable, personable, and easy going; yet detail oriented, like teaching us how to pose for the best possible outcome. He even worked with us to customize our photo package to our needs (without us even having to ask!!)

My name is Ali Cushing; a NY-based photographer working in a blended documentary and editorial approach, emphasized with a cinematic method, and a personalized, true to life editing style. I am honored to be entrusted with depicting genuine love, authentic characters, and immortalizing precious memories. I see beauty in the subtle details as much as the wide, epic scene, while I see glory in the mundane in-between moments as much as the heart thudding highs. I am adamant that everyone, of all genders and orientations, any ethnicity, culture, or faith, all shapes, ages, and abilities, are welcome and I’d be delighted to work with you.

Awarded Best of Zola
I couldn’t be happier with my experience working with Ali! She reached out to me on Zola and I am so glad she did. I was impressed with her portfolio and I really loved seeing how she would capture little moments in the weddings she had done. We set up a video call before booking and we clicked. She is very calm and helped with my pre-wedding nerves. She worked with us on a payment plan and she was always very quick to respond to any of my questions. She really listened to what we wanted. She got to the venue early to scout out different shots and came to check in with me a couple of times before we even began taking photos, which I did not expect but was very sweet and considerate of her. When we were taking photos, she really helped to guide the more “posed” photos but she also captured a lot of beautiful candid moments. We had so many guests come up to us and compliment her and that was before we even got the photos back. She sent us our sneak peeks the next day and I couldn’t be more thrilled with the results. She captured so many beautiful moments and her style is exactly what we wanted. Nothing felt “overly edited” just perfectly genuine. I cannot recommend Ali enough. I cannot wait to see the full gallery of photos because I know they will be nothing short of perfect.

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.

From the very beginning, Millie truly understood our vision for our wedding weekend. She has such a kind and calming demeanor that instantly made us feel comfortable, which is so important during such a big moment in life. Millie’s talent shines through in every photo she takes—whether it was at the courthouse ceremony or the celebration with our friends in Brooklyn, she captured each event beautifully and authentically. She took her time with us, ensuring every shot felt natural and genuine. We never felt rushed, and she made the entire experience so enjoyable. Looking through her work, we can see not just the events but the emotions of the day. Millie exceeded all of our expectations, and we are forever grateful to have had her there to document such a meaningful time in our lives. Thank you, Millie, for sharing your incredible gift with us! We’re so glad to have gained a new friend, too. :)

When I came across Rebecca's website and portfolio I was immediately smitten. Her style was so beautiful and unique, and exactly what I was hoping to find for our wedding. One quick call with her and I knew she was our photographer. She was so warm and welcoming and we felt completely ourselves around her. We had FUN spending time with her for both our engagement and wedding photos. Aside from her amazing skills - she went ABOVE AND BEYOND to coordinate our engagement photos with us when we were living in California. She was the easiest choice we made and we love every photo she took for us. Cannot recommend her highly enough! - Chelsean Nick

I believe that your images should look and feel exactly like you, as if you stepped out of your photographs into real life. My style is natural, vibrant and true to color and I enjoy providing a client experience that is unique, well-planned and most of all, fun! By the time your wedding arrives, my hope is you'll see me as a trusted friend helping you enjoy your day! A lifelong New Yorker, I love combining the creative with the technical and finding the beauty, art and magic in life as well as good food, dancing to 90s jams and my senior rescue cat, Ever.

Emily is a Hudson Valley based couples & wedding photographer. Her philosophy in photography is that a genuine connection with the couples she works with are the key to intimate, emotional photographs. She’s drawn to capturing honest images; pictures that aren’t just pretty but tell real stories about real couples.

I was overwhelmed when navigating how to choose a wedding photographer. I knew I wanted someone whose work accurately reflected the day and the people photographed, what better way than choose someone who had photographed me beautifully at a wedding! Emily was the photographer at my now SIL & BIL’s wedding. I loved her editing style and her speed of getting the right picture. I have never really loved how I look in photos, and I am hardly in front of the camera. At our engagement photoshoot at home, Emily made me feel completely at ease, and really captured great angles and unique ideas! Not only did I love how she photographed me, but I loved that it was honest. Emily shot our welcome party and our wedding. It was like see an old friend! Our guests were in awe of the photos and loved Emily’s personality. It was an absolutely gorgeous day, and possibly the most gorgeous I have ever attended, I am so glad I trusted Emily to capture the memories! What will not be shared on her public gallery are all the photos of our nieces and nephews! Emily photographed my SIL & BIL at our wedding and it was so heart warming and deeply meaningful! She was able to capture all the squirming kids in a fun way! She is truly talented and I am so grateful to have these memories for life!
