I've spent over a decade capturing weddings, couples, and portraits, refining my signature style: rich, nostalgic, and true to life. I love creating images that feel both luxurious and natural- deep colors, authentic emotions, and dynamic compositions. I'm all about capturing genuine connections in stunning environments for a photography experience and final gallery that feels like you, and will invoke a sense of nostalgia for years to come.

Awarded Best of Zola
I spent countless hours searching through wedding photographer portfolios before I found Emily, and the moment I saw her work, I knew she was the perfect fit. Her ability to capture genuine, natural moments while highlighting the beauty of the surrounding landscape immediately stood out. We got married outdoors in the middle of winter in Vermont, and Emily embraced the adventure with incredible creativity. She captured the snowy scenery in a way that felt ethereal and almost otherworldly. Every photo is stunning, and we honestly had a hard time choosing a favorite. Working with Emily was effortless. I never had to send inspiration photos or Pinterest boards because she understood my vision better than I did. She guided us through each pose with ease, making us feel comfortable and natural in front of the camera. If you're looking for a photographer who has an incredible creative eye, embraces adventure, and captures authentic, meaningful moments, I couldn't recommend Emily more. Hiring her was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding, and we'll cherish these photos forever!

Stefan Ludwig Photo + Video 
Rating: 5.0 (1 review)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Olcott, NY

I moved to Buffalo, NY about 6 years ago. Why Buffalo? Because my wife grew up here. I was born and raised in Münster, Germany and lived most recently in Vienna, Austria. I worked as a journalist for financial newspapers, websites and magazines. I wrote mainly about tech companies such as Apple, Facebook, Google among other things. As part of my job I was exposed to photography and filmmaking and discovered a passion. It didn’t take long for family and friends to ask me to photograph their weddings. I realized how much fun it was to be part of such an emotional day which you remember for a lifetime.

From the start, Stefan was very detail-oriented and attentive. We used him for two cultural events and one reception. He was very communicative and understanding. As a couple that is not comfortable in the spotlight, Stefan worked well with our insecurities and our cultural nuances. He was incredibly creative with small spaces, multiplae locations, and using props found around the spaces. He shot the two events alone and added Adam for teh reception. They were both able to adapt quickly due to some unforeseen rain and rolled with the punches of different cultural expectations. We never felt awkward, but felt stunning and feel the photos showed how truly happy we were on that day.

Hiring Ihor for our wedding photography was hands down the best decision we made. The quality of the photos is simply on another level. Ihor perfectly captured the essence of every moment.

We had zero experience with professional photos, but Ihor was a patient and knowledgeable guide, walking us through the entire process step-by-step and making the session feel effortless.

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.
