Juliette's photography seeks out authentic and candid moments that allow her couples to feel comfortable, vulnerable and fully present on their wedding day. Juliette's work is inspired by nostalgia, incorporating disposable cameras, 35mm film, and 90s camcorder throughout the day. Her love for visual storytelling is inspired by her favorite films and music, the details of the day, and her couples.

Awarded Best of Zola
At almost every moment leading up to our wedding day we knew we had made the right decision in hiring Juliette. We talked with quite a few photographers and videographers before settling on her and the main reason we did is just how easy she is to communicate and connect with. Always making us feel prioritized and accommodated to without overwhelming us. Any adjustments we made she was willing to roll with and always encouraged us to make decisions that would make us happy instead of anyone else. The pictures and videos themselves also turned out wonderful. Our main desire with hiring a videographer was to have someone capture as many special and genuine moments as they could while we enjoyed our day as carefree as we could. She most certainly succeeded on that front. My wife and I can’t recommend her enough, she made everything a breeze.

Brittany and her team were absolutely amazing from the day I found her online. We had a bad experience with our previous photographer that left me very nervous on who I’d pick to document our wedding, and I could tell how genuine Brittany was from the start. She made us comfortable in front of the camera and orchestrated everything to a T. Her team captured all angles of the wedding, and we are thrilled with the outcome. Organized from start to finish, and I think that’s the most important part. The weather was cold, windy, and rainy on our special day, and Brittany accepted that challenge in stride and made the best of what we had to work with. Thank you, Brittany and team!

Affection Florist is so much more than a florist. Charmaine took the time to truly get to know me, and because of that, she and her talented team created a wedding that exceeded anything I could have imagined. They didn't just provide flowers they created an entire atmosphere. Every detail was breathtaking, from the stunning floral arrangements to the gorgeous décor, chandeliers, sweetheart table, head table, and every single guest table. I genuinely felt like I had stepped into a fairytale. Throughout the wedding and even days afterward, our guests could not stop talking about how beautiful everything was. I honestly don't know how they pulled it all together, but they are absolute artists at what they do. On top of their incredible talent, they were communicative, responsive, organized, and wonderful to work with throughout the entire planning process. My biggest piece of advice: trust Charmaine's vision. She has an amazing eye for design, and letting her creativity shine was one of the best decisions we made. I would honestly renew my vows just to see their work again. I cannot recommend Affection Florist highly enough!

Nicole Lagoe Photography

Hey- I'm Nicole. When I'm not working with the raddest couples I'm typically brewery hopping with my wife, or home spending time with my three dogs. I live for SU basketball, and love just about any other Syracuse sports team (Crunch, Mets - count me in). I have been photographing weddings for over ten years, and in that time have had the opportunity to travel around the world and meet tons of new friends.

Awarded Best of Zola
There are a lot of great photographer options out there, and we had talked to a few before we spoke with Nicole. But when we hung up the phone after our initial chat, my fiance and I looked at each other and said, "I think that's our photographer?" And boy did we make the right choice. Nicole was responsive, professional, disarming, and thoughtful. She made us feel comfortable and supported, and covered every moment and every family pairing we wanted. It really felt like just had another friend at the wedding. So much so that afterwards, before we'd gotten the photos, we were like, "Honestly it doesn't matter what they look like, we're just kind of glad Nicole was at our wedding." But of course, every shot was incredible. We really felt like we got so much bang for honestly, in comparison, not a lot of buck. TL;DR: If we had to do our wedding again, Nicole would be our first call. Hire her!

  • Serves Oswego, NY

I was born and raised in Central New York. I am a military wife, that married her high school sweetheart. We are your typical family with 2 kids, 2 dogs and 2 cats. We even have that dreamy white picket fence. I started working weddings and events in Syracuse as a server, and realized that event planning was my dream job. I have worked my way up the ladder and decided that it was time to branch out on my own. My years of experience in wedding and event planning have required me to have a sharp eye for detail, excellent problem-solving skills and work in fast paced environments to make planning fun and events less stressful!

Beth is AMAZING at what she does. We could not have survived our wedding without her. She is confident, organized and very knowledgeable. She also brought a lot of fun energy! She helped us address a lot of little details we never considered. When we needed guidance she helped us figure out what we want. She directed us to other incredible vendors like our photographer. As it got close to the wedding she was always available and quick to respond. She even added an extra meeting when I was stressed and felt like I needed to make sure we were on the right path with getting things done. When I started to panic about decor she sent me photos and even doodles to help me envision it which was not only helpful but made me laugh. Her and her team made our day so amazing and memorable. I can't say enough great things about her. She instilled so much confidence that we just knew if anything happened she would take care of it. We had absolute faith and trust in her and she handled everything perfectly. She took so much stress off of us. The coordination was very reasonably priced and she helped with all the set up and break down which I found that to be not included with a lot of other places- worth every penny. After our wedding everything was packaged up right by the door so we just packed the cars and left. If you're on the fence, definitely book with this company, you'll be so glad you did!!!!

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I decided to hire a videographer with only 7 months to go until the wedding so we were a little bit stressed & feeling like we didn’t have much time to prepare. Rob with 123 Imaging was so friendly and happy to answer any questions each step of the way so that we felt at ease. We hired 123 Imaging for the Ceremony package only and are so glad we did. We absolutely would have regretted not having that footage. Our dog (our ringbearer) had passed away 2 months after the wedding and although not originally in our video wish list, Rob was happy to search for the footage to make sure the moment with our dog was in the video and not a moment was missed. He was also very good with communicating with us and so kind. Shout out to Amber and Christina who set up the cameras and the drone (and Daniel who ended up photographing our event with our photographer Caitlyn from Moments Captured CNY!). We would hire 123 Imaging again in a heartbeat and I recommend them to any bride & groom looking for a videographer to do the same!

Chef Kelsie and the Gingersnap Bakery team are the best! Kelsie was quick to respond to our initial inquiry and set up a virtual meeting to discuss timeline, design, and cost. We showed her some Pinterest inspo pics and she drew a sketch on the spot. Then we picked out some cake and frosting flavors to sample, and she mailed them to our house (cake tasting and a movie was so fun!). She was always easy to reach and quick to respond. On the wedding day, she personally delivered the cake to our venue, and everything went without a hitch – in fact, we completely forgot about the cake until we walked into our ballroom to preview it during cocktail hour. The cake itself was absolutely beautiful and hit the brief perfectly; it was exactly what we wanted. It was an 8-inch single-tier token cake for the photo op, and the photos turned out great. Moreover, it was DELICIOUS! Perfect texture, just the right amount of sweet. We got their mocha flavor with chocolate ganache as our filling/frosting but asked for vanilla buttercream on the outside to match our white theme. We are so excited to eat the slices we are saving for our one-year anniversary!

If we could give it 6 stars, we would. Tucked away- seemingly in the middle of nowhere- you come onto this beautiful, well maintained resort/lodge that sits right next to the pristine salmon river (wonderful photo opportunities everywhere!). Had it not been for my husband being an avid fisherman, I would have never known this place existed. But I’m so glad I do!! The communication and transparency from our point person, Jenn, was exceptionally fantastic from start to finish. She worked with us to make sure that everything was exactly how we wanted it from the big details down to the very small ones. Our day- of coordinator, Liberty, was also amazing as was the entire staff- I would describe the entire team as a well oiled machine and we really did feel like they genuinely cared about our experience being positive. The venue is clean, new, comfortable, and elegant. The food is absolutely delicious as well and is not anywhere near the category of “typical wedding food.” Being able to have our reception there and then having the hotel attached for our guests to stay the night really took the experience to the next level and we still have guests reaching out telling us how fantastic everything was.

Hands down the best professional makeup I’ve ever had! Hannah did my makeup along with my maids of honor, mother and mother of the groom. Not only is she extremely talented and easy to communicate with, but she was such a kind, sweet and professional presence on the day of my wedding. I did my trial on my bday (highly recommend) and didn’t want to change a thing for the wedding! My wedding day was the most beautiful I’ve ever felt thanks to Hannah. Her air brush makeup felt refreshing going on and felt light all day. She used the perfect colors for my cool toned skin and exceeded my expectations! I went for youthful, blushy, doll-like. My girls and moms loved their makeup as well, regardless of whether they asked for natural or glam, everyone looked incredibly radiant. It was so fun seeing everyone hop out of her chair looking like true goddesses! I would hire Hannah for any future makeup in a heartbeat!

I pride myself on being able to work with couples of all backgrounds and cultures. I am outgoing, energetic and have a true passion for documenting your day. Each wedding tells a unique story and it is my job to tell your story. I have been photographing weddings for over 6 years . Prior to that I worked weddings as a 2nd photographer and an assistant to several regional photographers. I felt that by working with several different companies I was able to gather experience from several perspectives. I shoot with the Nikon series of cameras and Lens. During the "off season" you can catch me photographing local High school sporting events.

Working with Cassie was fantastic from start to finish. She was super responsive, helpful, and on top of everything. She was so patient with our rowdy groomsmen and braved the cold with us for our pictures and ceremony. She jumped at the chance to take pictures at all the best moments. It was grey and cloudy all day, but when we saw this sunset open up over the lake, she literally ran outside with us to get these pictures. Our friends and family have made multiple comments about how great she was! We can not recommend her enough!!

Hi I'm Natasha! I specialize in lifestyle and wedding photography with a focus on creating timeless, emotional imagery that tells your story with intention. Based in Syarcuse, NY and its surrounding areas. I'm drawn to in-between parts of a day just as much as the big ones-the quiet looks, the emotion, and everything that makes your story yours. I gently guide when needed, but I also step back so things can unfold naturally. My goal is for photos to feel like memories you can truly feel again.

Working with Natasha McGraw was such a joy from start to finish. She stayed in touch with us throughout the planning process and answered questions right away, which made us feel confident we were in good hands. Natasha had a way of making everything feel relaxed and comfortable, even when we were nervous in front of the camera. Her photos turned out clean and beautiful, capturing the natural moments that matter most without feeling staged. We loved how open she was to our ideas and how she made us feel like partners in the process. We'd recommend Natasha to any couple looking for a photographer who truly cares about telling your story.

Peter is very professional and prompt during the entire planning process all the way through the event. After signing with him, we had no worries and knew that we had made an excellent decision going with him. He assists in anything you need along the way and was very understanding and sympathetic regarding us having to postpone because of COVID. Even though we had to have a Sunday wedding, he did an amazing job getting people on the dance flow and staying on the dance floor the entire night - overall, he was amazing to work with!
