We’re a husband-and-wife photography team capturing timeless weddings across New York City, New Jersey, and beyond. With over a decade of experience, we blend an editorial eye with documentary storytelling to create photographs that feel modern yet enduring. From intimate Central Park and NYC skyline weddings to romantic New Jersey garden celebrations and destination weddings worldwide.

Awarded Best of Zola
Rebeca and Andrew are not just incredible photographers, but they are also wonderful people who make their clients feel so comfortable. Do not hesitate to book Andrew and Rebeca for your wedding or your next photographed event. My husband and I were joking around about how Andrew and Rebeca felt like our friends after sharing all our special moments together, photographing our engagement photos and our first look the day of the wedding. Rebeca and Andrew create a calm, down to earth, and joyful environment during their shoots. They did a fantastic job making us feel comfortable in front of the camera- we were so happy that we did an engagement shoot with them, they taught us some tips and tricks for posing in front of the camera, and so we were thrilled with how our wedding photos turned out a few months later. Additionally, Rebeca and Andrew are professional, ask a fair price for their incredible work, and are quick to respond to all emails and messages. They made us feel calm, confident, and well taken care of throughout the entire wedding planning process. On your wedding day, you are spending so much time running around, staying on schedule, socializing, etc. It can get really busy and overwhelming. So, we learned that some of the more quiet and intimate moments happen when you are being photographed at your first look or before your guests arrive at your venue. As a result, you don’t just want skillful photographers at your wedding, you want great people who you enjoy spending time with. Overall, we could not have been more happy working with Rebeca and Andrew- in fact, we will miss them! We definitely plan to keep them in mind if we ever need a professional photographer in the future.

Ahead of our wedding, Millie did a beautiful job on our engagement photos and then sent us the most beautiful photo care package with a gorgeous and thoughtful wedding planning book. As we got closer to our wedding, we felt relaxed because Millie had planned all of the details and made sure to know exactly what we wanted and desired for the big day (and then organized everything into a very detailed timeline). On our wedding, Millie was the perfect photographer, capturing every special moment and fitting in perfectly alongside our loved ones. I could go on and on.

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! 🙂

Awarded Best of Zola
Booking Tati & Roman was hands down the BEST decision we made for our wedding. We were looking for someone with more of an editorial style with a focus on genuine candid photos, and they absolutely delivered!!! Tati & Roman took the time to get to know us and what the vibe of our wedding would be like, and it translated SO well in their photos. When we told them we were leaning into a movie theme and wanted to do our engagement photos in a movie theater, they really took the idea and brought it to life in ways we hadn’t even imagined. People are STILL talking about how cool our engagement photos were. And now we all can’t stop gushing over our wedding photos!! They captured everything so beautifully - all of the love and absolute joy of the day just shines through each photo. They took so many gorgeous photos of our loved ones too - the best photos we've ever seen of many of them! Trying to pick only a few of our photos for this post feels IMPOSSIBLE. And even the album titles they sorted the photos into matched our theme (trailer, prologue, guest stars, etc) and we love the thoughtfulness!! We really leaned into a lot of silliness throughout the day, and Tati was always game and so excited to help us pull it off. We are SOOOO lucky to have had a photographer who was just as excited about the day as we all were - and a friend who fit right in with our loved ones :) If you’re considering booking Tati & Roman, do yourself a favor and DO IT!!!!!!

Hey there! My name is Emilee, and I am a Minnesota-native living in NYC! I've been photographing people and events for the past 15 years. I shoot families, couples, individuals, and pets, but my passion lies in wedding photography. I love capturing the whirlwind of a couples' big day, and seeing the love that is shared between them and all their wedding guests. It's magical and wonderful every. single. time. My current active markets are Minnesota and New York, but I'm available to travel anywhere in the US and the world for additional fees!

Awarded Best of Zola
What a dream Emilee was to work with, from start to finish. OUR CEREMONY PARTY: we decided on a private, courthouse elopement on a Wednesday, a 60 person reception party on a Friday. In both, our biggest priority was having a photographer capture the intimate, joyful small details. We went with Emilee because of her eye for the beauty in the small things. She captured both our days perfectly. DOCUMENTARY STYLE: Emilee was perfect behind the scenes, capturing beautiful moments of our friends and family, small details of the courthouse with just us. I look back at some of these photos and ask "how did she even get that?!" She has such an eye. POSED: We had about 20 minutes dedicated to posed, family photos during our reception. Emilee had our families relaxed and laughing, quickly swapping members in and out. In some newlywed photos, we sought her advice for how to pose. She gave quick direction, made us feel confident, and always found the perfect light. COMMUNICATION SPEED: Delivered on every promise, quick replies. Emilee was 15 minutes early to both locations, we never had to worry. PERSONALLY: We met with Emilee about 4 months before our big days. We had coffee, talked about our vision and our biggest priorities. She immediately felt like a friend, and knew she was firmly on our team. If you're looking for a photographer to capture not only beautiful photos of yourself, but more importantly, the feeling in every room, Emilee is the photographer for you. We recommend wholeheartedly, and can't wait for another occasion to work with her. Sincerely, Mara James

Literally the best in the game. We had high standards and a specific vision and they delivered on all fronts without even needing to tell them what we wanted. Amazing work, fun personalities, they were committed and didn’t make the photos feel like a chore. 10 out of 10!!!

From the moment we booked Shelby Phillips Photography, the communication was excellent, easy, and seamless. Shelby and her team have an incredibly creative and artistic eye, capturing all the special candid moments of our wedding day(s). Shelby shot both of our weddings, a Covid city hall wedding and our post pandemic wedding. We also have recommended her for our family's engagements and weddings, and we all couldn't be happier with the results of everything she has done. I would hire her to photograph anything, at any time, because I know that no matter what, the results will be stunning. Even if it was just a picture of a garbage can, I promise you that garbage would look high key incredible. Shelby has a way of making even the most camera-shy people feel completely comfortable in front of the lens. We are obsessed with how amazing our photos turned out, and we highly recommend Shelby Phillips Photography to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photography experience.

Weddings by Hanel (pronounced like Chanel without a c) is a wedding photo & video studio creatively blending artistic photojournalism with beautiful portraiture. Our philosophy for photographing weddings is based on the belief that the most important part of our job is telling your story as beautifully as the story itself. Everything else is secondary. With hundreds of weddings under our belts, my team and I have been a part of weddings of all colors, sizes, and locations. Our destination weddings have taken them to some incredible locations, including Hawaii, Korea, and Aruba.

We booked Hanel for both our engagement shoot and wedding. We cannot say anymore great things about him. His email responses were timely, thorough and it was incredibly easy to set up time to meet with him to discuss his and our visions. My husband and I are not camera people in the slightest, and often make silly faces in order to balance our awkwardness. However, Hanel and his assistant made us feel at ease during both shoots, and gave easy directions for us to follow throughout that ultimately made us feel confident and comfortable in front of the camera. They were so welcoming/friendly, and we felt like we were just hanging out with our friends for the day. Hanel was able to handle the chaos that were my family and friends on the wedding day, and easily navigated all the different groupings for photos the day of with immense ease. He kept to our wedding timeline without making us feel rushed. Our photos were sent back to us quickly after a month, and they were absolutely gorgeous. I had never felt so beautiful in my life (neither has my husband) and Hanel was able to capture those feelings forever for us. Thank you again for everything Hanel.

Hello there! I’m Karen, a wedding and portrait photographer based out of New York. I love photographing LOVE! Connections. The places we go, the people we meet, and the experiences we have along the way are what we remember most in life. I have a passion for traveling and exploring the world, and my life is filled with a lot of laughter, incredible food and wine, and photo adventures with clients turned friends.Memories are such a vivid representation of our lives and capturing the spirit of each couple, family or individual in that sliver of time is an opportunity I am very proud to call my work.

Karen is an amazing photographer with an INCREDIBLE EYE! She captures moments and details that most people miss, but that everyone wants to remember. I worked with Karen at a wedding on the California Coast and was so impressed by her professionalism, warm demeanor and efficiency. The images from the wedding (and my florals) were stunning. I recommend Karen wholeheartedly, and can't wait to work with her again!

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.

From the moment we saw Celeste’s work on her site, we knew we HAD to have her photograph our wedding. Her quality style photos were just stunning, the natural style and unposed pictures we just fell in love with. From the minute we met Celeste, we felt comfort, transparency and overall joy. She is so friendly and approachable and we knew she would blend into our wedding effortlessly. 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! If anyone is even slightly considering hiring Celeste, don’t think about it just do it!!!! You will NOT regret it!!! I promise. Celeste, we can’t thank you enough for your lovely service and we will always be so grateful. We are already talking about renewing our vows in the future and having you photograph this for us haha!!! From the bottom of our hearts thank you!! Te amo
