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.

“Kevin is an incredible photographer who captured our engagement and wedding beautifully!! He was flexible, accommodating, and so much fun to work with! Our wedding photos are nothing short of magical! We are so grateful to Kevin and we will treasure our pictures forever!”

Krutick Photography

Photojournalistic style
Starts at $4,500
Serves Palenville, NY

Hi, I’m Richard, a wedding photographer based in the Hudson Valley. My passion is finding the beauty in the simplest moments and capturing them in a way that feels raw, real, and full of life. As a candid, photojournalist photographer, I’m all about ditching stiff poses to focus on the relationships, the laughs, and the genuine emotions that tell your distinct story. I aim to capture the little details and authentic moments that make your day uniquely yours.

“Richard Krutick is special. A special talent as well as a special man. He captured it! The day after our wedding he sent me a teaser gallery of what was to come. I was blown away. When planning my wedding the photographer was the most critical to me -I was picky. When I saw his work he turned my entire way of looking at my wedding around. Richard and I had over an hour-long conversation and we clicked. I, having a creative director background and working with photographers all my career, was thrilled because we spoke the same language. I wanted honest, documentary-style moments captured without noticing the presence of the photographer. He was there when you needed him and you liked him. My guests were saying what a warm and great guy he is. He got their personalities, each and every one of them. He looks at everything with a special eye. Right at the time of my outdoor wedding with the most beautiful view and lush floral arbor, it poured and didn't stop. Gravel walkways turning into mud, no bride or groom wants to see. He just grabbed the moments and ran with them. Pivoting, he captured the most creative and editorial images I could ever dream of. He took the storm and made it beautiful. I hope I will have another event, moment, fun-filled party, or cherished time that he can again capture so we can work with him again.”

Your wedding is one of the most meaningful days of your life, and our full creative team is here to capture every moment, emotion, and detail. We specialize in photography, cinematic film, and Super 8, blending modern storytelling with a touch of timeless nostalgia.

Our couples love that we make the experience effortless and fun, while delivering cinematic keepsakes they’ll treasure forever.

“If you want to relive your wedding day over and over again, BOOK CASSANDRA DAYE ! From the moment we booked with Cass, she became so much more than just our wedding photographer. She became a friend. She was a steady, calming, supportive presence throughout the entire planning process, someone we could lean on, reach out to, and even vent to when things felt overwhelming. Her energy was exactly what every couple needs during the chaos of wedding planning; grounding, reassuring, and genuinely caring. We had the best time during our engagement shoot with Cass. We had no idea what we were doing but she made it so easy and most importantly- FUN. The photos left us absolutely speechless. We always knew Cass was the right choice, but we could never have imagined just how beautifully, and how magically she would bring our memories to life! On the day of the wedding, I was so overwhelmed and she continued to bring me back down to earth with her calm presence and unwavering kindness and support. She and her team were iconic on the day and everyone had so much fun with them. When we received our wedding gallery, we were absolutely blown away. Every image felt ethereal—soft, emotional, timeless—and yet so true to who we are. Cass has this rare ability to capture raw emotion in a way that feels both effortless and deeply intentional. Cass didn’t just photograph our wedding, she preserved the heart of it. Looking through our pictures brought us right back to the day—the laughter, the nerves, the tears, the joy. She bottled up the feelings of our wedding in the most beautiful way, and we’re forever grateful. Cass isn’t just an incredibly talented photographer, she’s the kind of person you’re BLESSED to have beside you on your wedding day. We couldn’t recommend her more and absolutely love her.”

It’s close to where I grew up and where my family lives in the Catskills. I love EVERYTHING about a wedding day; the anticipation, the joy, the laughter, the happy tears, and the simple fact that everyone you know is gathered to celebrate with you. I have had the honor of celebrating with so many couples and friends and family and it gives me so much joy. I want you to have the BEST day!! So tell me about your loves, your plans, and let’s start telling your story!

“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 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.

“Becca, and her second shooter Liz, were amazing to work with. From the start Becca was easy to talk to, and so helpful in the planning process; from her helpful planning videos you receive as a client, planned video calls, her detailed timeline, and photography form to fill out, she made the whole planning process so much easier. She also gave lots of great advice for the day, including the decision to do a first look ahead of the ceremony. I was hesitant at first as I wanted to do the real reveal at the church, but after talking with her we decided to do the first look. I’m so glad we did as Becca was right, it took a lot of pressure of the rest of the day and gave us time to really soak that moment in just the two of us. This also allowed us more time to enjoy other parts of our day like attending the entire cocktail hour! Looking forward to the day, I was worried that I was going to hate having to take so many photos and being in front of the camera and felt like it was going to feel like wasted time in the day. Now, I am so happy that I had Becca for this, my husband and I had so much fun interacting with the photographers. Becca gave great instructions and had lots of fun prompts/conversation pieces to help us loosen in front of the camera and to look more natural. I am so looking forward to the photos, but from the day and seeing her precious work, I already can tell we are going to love them.”

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.

From the moment we met her, we knew she was the perfect choice to capture our special day. Bridget has an extraordinary ability to put you at ease, making the photo sessions feel natural and fun, which added such a joyful vibe to our wedding. The photos? Absolutely perfect! Bridget’s keen eye for detail and creative vision resulted in stunning images that perfectly encapsulated the love and magic of our day. We were blown away by how quickly she delivered the final photos, beautifully edited and ready to cherish forever. Her efficiency and dedication are unmatched! We wholeheartedly recommend Bridget to anyone looking for a photographer they can trust with their most precious memories. She doesn’t just take photos; she creates art that elevates your entire wedding experience. Bridget’s work is nothing short of magical, and we’re forever grateful for the memories she’s given us.

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.

“Sydney was a dream to work with for our wedding! She is so kind and easy-going, she instantly eased all of my wedding day anxieties. She truly does it all and was essential in making our day run smoothly. From fixing my veil, to bustling my dress, and wrangling up our wedding party all while getting fantastic photos. She really is so talented at what she does by capturing all of the in-between, authentic moments that you want to remember forever. Our photos turned out better than I could have ever imagined and are so timeless, we will cherish them for the rest of our lives. We couldn’t recommend her enough not only because of her beautiful work but for the person that she is!!!”

Not only were they the perfect presence for our wedding day, they captured it in such an authentic way with a stunning final product. We connected with Kristen & Sheridan the moment we met them which was important to us considering the amount of time you spend around your photographers. We did an engagement shoot prior and we not only received an incredible batch of photos, but we were able to establish a rapport that made the flow of our wedding day feel that much easier. When we had to tweak our photo schedule or change locations, they were the perfect people to help us pivot and keep things on track. And when it was time for the ceremony & reception, their discrete coverage led to incredible results that captured our day in such an incredible way. The wedding gallery they created was nothing short of amazing and we were able to see moments of friends & family we would have never seen day-of. And truly, everyone who interacted with them LOVED them. We had opted not to have a videographer and knew our photographs were going to be our primary memory of the day, and we have no notes!

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.

“We’ve got a lot to say about Holly and Jim and it’s all absolutely glowing. From the moment Holly and Jim came to meet us for our engagement photos, we’d picked Central Park, we knew we were in incredibly capable and warm hands. Our wedding was upstate in Jefferson, New York in October 2024 was exactly what we imagined (read meticulously planned), and a huge part of that was captured flawlessly by these two talented photographers. Holly and Jim's ability to blend seamlessly into the background while still managing to capture every precious moment is astounding. They paired their prior experiences at our venue with an uncanny knack for anticipating those fleeting, beautiful instances – a loving glance, close ups on our meaningful mementos, the joy radiating from our guests. They didn't just take pictures; they told the story of how our day came together from both sides of the aisle. The photos themselves are breathtaking. The lighting, the composition, even the curation of selects afterwards – everything was absolutely professional. They managed to encapsulate the rustic charm of the venue, the vibrance of autumn in the Catskills, while also highlighting the intimate and personal moments that made our wedding so uniquely ours. From lakeside portraits in the afternoon sun, to raucous groups on the dance floor, to fireworks later that night — they had it covered from the perfect angle without ever being in the way. Beyond their technical expertise, Holly and Jim are simply wonderful people. They are kind, patient, and genuinely passionate about their craft. They were accommodating with our budget, and frankly, generous with helping us make the most of it. Holly is sharp and reassuring, she was particularly proactive with recommending local resources like a videographer. Jim is calm and easygoing, even offering to ride along with the guys from the AirBnB to the venue. If you're looking for wedding photographers who will not only deliver stunning images but also keep your day from feeling as crazy as it certainly is, look no further than Out of the Ordinary. They really are, well, it’s right there in the name. We are forever grateful for the beautiful memories they have given us. We couldn't recommend them highly enough!”

Hi, I’m Sarah (she/they), a wedding photographer based in the Adirondacks of New York. I photograph weddings with care, intention, and a deep respect for the moments that matter most for couples of all identities and love stories.

“Hawthorn Photography was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding! From the very first meeting, Sarah and Drew were so easy to talk to and we felt like we connected with them very quickly. They are very professional but do not make you feel pressured at all - Sarah has great ideas and really hypes you up throughout the process. Drew always found creative ways to shoot the day and Sarah was there for me every step of the way, even when I needed quick help with my dress. Sarah is so dependable and the pictures they captured showcase both of their talents and our love so well. I'd pick Hawthorn Photography for photos for every occasion and in every lifetime!”

Mostly-film photographer based in Upstate New York. I want to help you make memories and go the extra mile to make my clients happy. Rarely seen without my (current) favorite camera: a Leica Q2 I want to take the originals, not the photocopies

“Ross blew away any expectations I had. He was so personable that multiple guests asked if he was our friend/how we knew him! He was involved in every aspect of the wedding, totally capturing the essence of the day. Rolled with whatever crazy idea we had. Genuinely a wonderful person on top of a fantastic photographer. He made you so comfortable and it really showed through the pictures. I cannot recommend him enough. We will have these pictures for a lifetime to come!! I’m so glad we went with Ross!”

My smashing team photographs weddings have different coverage options that will hopefully not break the bank. Our people go throughout upstate New York, Massachusetts, and Vermont. 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 cannot say enough wonderful things about Paul from Paul Saunders Photography! From the very first moment he arrived on our wedding day, he wasn’t just our photographer—he was a calming presence, a guiding hand, and an absolute joy to be around. I was a bundle of nerves while getting ready, but the second Paul walked in, everything changed. He didn’t just take photos—he reassured me, made me laugh, and instantly put me at ease. His experience shines through in every way. He knows exactly how to capture genuine, in-the-moment magic while making everyone feel comfortable and natural in front of the camera. What amazed us even more was how prepared and thoughtful he was. We had a quick conversation before the wedding, and he not only remembered every detail I mentioned, but also memorized all of our close family and wedding party’s names—down to fun nicknames! That level of attention and personalization made the entire experience feel effortless. His humor and warmth helped us relax, and instead of stressing over photos, we just got to be in the moment and truly enjoy our day. My husband raved about how much fun Paul made the groomsmen’s photos, effortlessly organizing everyone while keeping things light and easygoing. He has a gift for reading the energy of a room and bringing out the best in everyone, whether it’s guiding a group shot or capturing those intimate, fleeting moments that might otherwise go unnoticed. When we received our photos, we were absolutely blown away. They are beyond stunning—every glance, every laugh, every little emotion of the day perfectly preserved. It felt like reliving the best day of our lives all over again. I cannot stop looking at them! Paul is not only an exceptional photographer but also a kind, personable, and incredibly talented artist. Hiring him was one of the best decisions we made, and we are forever grateful for his work. If I could give him more than five stars, I absolutely would! Our families loved him too, and we heard so many compliments from our guests about how great he was to work with. He truly became a part of our special day, and we can’t recommend him enough! Sabrina and Nick M.”
