  • Starts at $7,700
  • Serves Pleasant Valley, NY

Awarded Best of Zola
The thing that stood out the most for me about Thalia was her black and white photography, I remember trolling her Instagram and I was captured by this black and white photo of a wedding couple, I instantly knew she was the one I wanted to capture my big day! The email communication and general communication with her was timely and she answered all my questions and gave me guidance when needed. Our first encounter was for our engagement shoot, which btw I am so glad she suggested we do this because it helped my husband and I get acquainted with not only Thalia but just to get a bit more comfortable with doing a professional photo shoot. Our engagement shoot was in Central Park, NY. Thalia made us feel so comfortable during the shoot and had a light hearted energy to her, my husband hates taking photos and even he enjoyed himself throughout the day. Leading up to the weeks of our wedding day, Thalia would check in and her timeline of the wedding day was so helpful and really helped eased my nerves as to how the day would go. On our wedding day, Thalia arrived early so she could take photos of all the details. She quietly took photos of things that I didn't even notice until I saw the final prints. I have so many favorite photos and she knocked the black and white photos straight out of the park! They are gorgeous!!!!! Throughout the wedding day she made me feel so calm and I really appreciated that, especially because as a bride you're hoping everything is perfect. There were many moments where we had some girl talk and laughed and that also helped keep me at ease. My family kept saying how sweet she was and how easy going she made them feel. The timeline Thalia provided was spot on! Everything went according to planned and the times were laid out perfectly. We had our first look which was perfect, Thalia captured moments with my grandmother that when I looked at them I cried. I want to thank her for that because my grandmother is my world. Throughout the wedding reception, you didn't even notice Thalia, she was here and there capturing all those key moments that looking back at them now makes my heart full and lets me know the level of detail she captures is pure talent. One thing about Thalia is her patience, she's not pushy or bossy, she really loves what she does and goes out her way to make sure you have a good time. Thalia is just so sweet, I feel like it is so important to work with someone who is warm and kind. Overall, book Thalia! You will not regret the decision, she is extremely talented and I will definitely use her for future occasions!

I'm Chrysa- a self-taught photographer since 2014. My entire life I've always been in love with taking pictures. Whether it was using a Polaroid as a kid, bringing the ole digital point & shoot along to the bars in college (until I dropped it in a vodka RedBull - RIP) or finally growing up & buying my first big girl DSLR in my early 20s, I have always had a flare for anything creative. I'm sure my parents wished I had a flare for performing heart surgery but here we are... I love travel & all things adventure/outdoors (Want to climb a mountain to elope? I'm your girl. Want to exchange vows in a National Park? I've been to 29, count me in).

If you're the kind of couple that would prefer their photographer feel like one of the guests as opposed to a paparazzi, and if when the neighbors complain about the noise, you just invite them to the party, keep reading. I take a documentary-style approach to my weddings. Roaming with a camera, I capture the candid moments and small details that make your wedding unique to you, while making sure to set aside time for a few special portraits.

We chose Nathan as our main shooter because we just loved his classic, elegant style. My friend had used Nathan for her 2019 wedding and her photos were beautiful. Needless to say, we made the right decision. Our wedding photos are breathtaking and I could not ask for anything better! Nathan is professional, easy going, kind, and has a wonderful eye for imagery. The poses, angles, etc are amazing. I was afraid I would look awkward, or pose funny and he just makes you feel comfortable and pretend like he isn't there, but the photos are natural, elegant, classy. He also captured all the photo combos and and then some with my family and bridal party. Do not hesitate with reaching out to Nathan. Your photos will be beautiful!

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
When we started planning our wedding I knew that I wanted to work with Isaac. I had been following his work on Instagram for a few years after my friend got married and I always love the energy and emotion he can capture in his photography. The photos are bright and colorful and feel very natural. After meeting Isaac, he is one of the nicest people and it was a real pleasure to have him at our wedding. And the photos turned out just as I had hoped. There are lots of great family shots, the details of the bridal party getting ready, setup and all of our guests enjoying the reception are really fun. And the sunset photos have a magic quality to them. I definitely got so many photos its difficult to decide which ones to print and frame for the wall.

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
It was incredible getting to watch Sydney in action when we worked a wedding together this past year! As a newer wedding vendor she welcomed me with open arms and I learned so much by watching her interact with the couple, wedding party, family, and friends! She consistently was one step ahead and always seemed to know exactly what everyone needed! She spent the day as so much more than a photographer which I can only imagined enhanced the bride and grooms day and took so much pressure of their shoulders! Not to mention the photos turned out absolutely gorgeous! I would love to work alongside Sydney again in the future! Any vendor that gets to learn from her is lucky!

I suffer with a disability and multiple chronic illnesses that caused me to gain a lot weight over a short period of time, so I became extremely self-conscious about my image. Over the past couple of years I always avoided a camera and one of the biggest fears on my wedding day was having to get my photo taken. I was so picky with who I wanted as a photographer and I didn’t want to just settle with anyone. Once I found Lindsay and looked through her work, I loved everything I saw &  I knew I had found our photographer! Once I booked her we quickly connected. I loved how she sent me a friend request not long after booking her. It was really nice to get to know her and her family over time and made everything so much smoother when it came to taking our photos. When she took our engagement photos a year before our wedding, it felt like I had already known Lindsay for years! She truly takes the time to get to know all of her clients on a personal level which was so important to me. It was also useful to practice posing and working together ahead of our wedding. We have the most beautiful photos from that magical time before the big day. By the time our wedding came in June 2023, I was so comfortable around her and her husband Nathan. The connection and ease we found with her shows through in the final product. We are generally very awkward and have a tendency to pull silly faces the minute a camera is in our vicinity. Lindsay knew exactly how to make us feel like we were just hanging out with a friend. I told her my insecurities and she worked with them flawlessly. On our wedding day, it poured all day. It was miserable. But Lindsay and Nathan managed to still give us the most beautiful photos we could have ever asked for. Despite the rain, our photos are stunning, filled with that glowy, flattering light. The thousands of photos we received from Lindsay and Nathan were absolutely breathtaking. For the first time in years, I didn’t look at photos and hate myself in them. I felt beautiful and I was so excited to share our photos with everyone. Six months later, we still receive plenty of compliments with how beautiful our wedding photos are. Lindsay and Nathan somehow captured every last detail, every single moment (some moments I didn’t even see for myself), perfectly. When I look back at our wedding album I feel exactly how I did on that day. We couldn’t have chosen a more perfect photographer to capture our memories. We will treasure these photos forever. Thank you, Lindsay Eileen Photography!

We had the best experience for our wedding photos. From the moment I first spoke with Frank I knew this was going to be a smooth and easy process. Irene and Min were such a pleasure to work with the day of our wedding. Being 9 months pregnant, they were very mindful and compassionate to my needs. They captured the best moments throughout the night. The delivery of our photos was much quicker than I expected and as I looked through all the pictures I was able to relive that moment in time.

As your wedding photographer my goal is to capture the memories you're in the moment experiencing so you can be taken right back to the day no mater how much time has passed. Wedding photography is so much more than pretty pictures. These are heirlooms that you will pass down to those who love you, so let's give them honest real images about a love worth remembering JUST AS IT IS!

We fell in love with Alli’s photos when we were first searching for a wedding photographer and instantly had a connection once we reached out to her. She first shot our engagement shoot and we were so impressed with the photos we got back. The lighting, the edits, and how comfortable she made us feel truly showed in how amazing the photos came out. Then on our wedding day, she came on time, was well prepared and it felt like she was just one of the girls there to help me keep it together! Our wedding was shot in a dark building, which we were a little worried about the photos being dark but they were phenomenal! She got every shot we asked for and then some. Alli really knows her stuff, and I honestly would pick her a thousand times over again if I had to do it again!

This is delightfully different elopement + wedding photography! From helicopter elopements, to hiking engagements, to weddings with bouncy houses, I capture the adventurous, quirky, and unique. Based in both New York and California, with travel worldwide, I've photographed couples on 6 continents. My creative, fun, and candid photography uses innovative techniques and unique ideas to get photos that make you look twice. Whether you're saying vows in your backyard or having a 3-day adventure wedding in the rainforest, I'll catch every spontaneous moment of joy and laughter—and plan a few awesomely unique shots on top of it all.

Awarded Best of Zola
I would recommend her as a photographer to anyone who wants to have pictures that will allow them to keep reliving their wedding day. She was a joy to work with, easy-going, and yet very astute to our wishes as a couple. Kathryn made our already fantastic day one that we can keep visiting for many years to come. I don’t even know where to start. I think Kathryn was fated to be our wedding photographer. Nothing else explains how well it all turned out. Whenever I look at my wedding pictures, I relive my wedding so vividly that it is unreal. The way she was able to capture our day was beyond amazing, and it’s the same sentiment expressed by anyone who has viewed our photographs, from our wedding guests, family, and friends who didn’t attend, to strangers. Simply beautiful and magical. We found her online after months of searching and talking to many other photographers. She caught our attention with her pictures first but kept it with her personality and quality of work. We were able to feel the spirit, emotion, and genuine joy in them. Her attention to details and being able to capture all of those emotions spoke to us immediately. The creativity and sense of adventure that shined through her pictures secured her role on our joyous day. Her style matched ours so well. First of all, she was so easy to work with her. At the onset, our interactions were seamless, from the first conversation on the phone to the contracting process and the delivery of our photos. I have heard so many horror stories from friends and family about their photographers and being unhappy with the outcome that I was scared that my experience would be similar. However, working with Kathryn was indeed a dream, and my photos are beyond lovely. I don’t think a day has passed when we do not look at our photos with smiles on our faces. Her pictures are clear and full of energy. So well done that you can feel the emotions, hear the music, and experience all the joys. I can’t imagine anyone else being able to capture it the way she did. She was able to get little moments in-between moments. She was omnipresent yet invisible if that makes any sense, but it’s the best I can explain it. She was there when the Bridal party was getting ready yet not in the way. She captured the ceremony in a way that you can feel the love, the sincerity of our vows, and our audience responded to it all—documented the fun of the dance party to a point where you can hear the music that went along with the moves frozen in time. We hardly felt her presence in the room, but we know she was there because we have these captured moments. If you can book her, just do it!

Hi! My name is Hannah Jan Schillinger and I’m the owner and lead photographer of Hannah Jan Photo. I grew up in Westchester, New York and graduated from Kenyon College with a degree in Art History. My education in fine art trained me to observe and see the beauty in the everyday. This background guides me to not only capture authentic moments, but gave me a curated eye and ability to document the personality of couples and the spirit of their love celebrations.

Everyone talks about a certain kind of blissful halo that happens on your wedding day but you don't quite know what they mean until you experience it yourself. I am so thankful we have the most amazing photos from Hannah to relive the day's magic again and again. I was drawn to Hannah's work because of its candid nature, her creative use of framing, and ability to make the wedding couple look natural and unposed. Hannah herself was kind, available, patient, helpful and a true partner every step of the way. She made the process easy and fun which was a breath of fresh among the stresses of wedding planning. On the day of our wedding, Hannah and Natasha (the second photographer) were able to capture the biggest and the smallest details throughout the getting ready space, our traditional wedding ceremony, our tea ceremony, the reception + speeches, and the dancing. They truly were able to reflect the atmosphere and joy in our photos. It was a total delight to see photos of moments we didn't witness ourselves in the whirlwind of the day. Hannah and Natasha did not hesitate to go above and beyond. The kitchen hit a speed bump and our dinner timings and therefore the wedding schedule was running 30 minutes behind. Hannah gamely huddled with us and our DJ to problem solve and we quickly came up with a solution and averted a potential headache. We also unfortunately dealt with the passing of a grandparent a few weeks after the wedding and reached out to Hannah to request all photos of him be included in our final photos. She was so sympathetic, accommodating, and even offered to find a way to send photos sooner if needed. We often refer to our wedding day as the best day of our lives and Hannah was a big part of the reason why. Thank you for everything, Hannah!

Back in 2016, during my brief 4 year stint doing wedding photography, Daniel joined a wedding photography FB group I was a member of, and I was quickly impressed with his eagerness to learn the art of photography. In search of an assistant/third shooter for an upcoming wedding, I decided to hire Daniel. When we first spoke on the phone, I liked him immediately. He came across very friendly, attentive and easy to get along with. It also helped that he is a fellow drummer and Rush fan!! Over the years since then, I’ve watched him grow into a phenomenal photographer, and I knew that he was the man for my own wedding. Certainly not a standard issue photographer, his work has always impressed me. His creative use of light (both natural and artificial) and slow shutter effects make for some of the most gorgeous photos one will ever see. In fact, one of my favorite shots of the day was using the slow shutter effect and a group of complete strangers he convinced to help us! But beyond his photographic skills, Daniel is just a solid human being! He has a very calming presence, which is always welcome when you have the wedding day jitters. He knows how to have a little fun during the day, but is always 100 percent focused on you and your wedding day. Simply stated, you’d be a fool not to hire him for your own wedding! “Living in a fish eye lens, caught in the camera eye” - NEP

Hi I'm Hannah and I'm from tiny fishing village in Cornwall, England but moved here to North Carolina in 2017. Fun fact, they actually filmed some of scenes for the Game of Thrones spin off, House of the dragon there! It's hard to pick favorites but if your wedding includes a dog in the bridal party, a dress with pockets and the cupid shuffle....COUNT ME IN! Among my never-ending list of dream sessions is of course a wedding at Disneyworld and the ultimate outdoorsy engagement session with the wild horses at Shackleford Banks. Don't be surprised when I ask you to add me to your pinterest boards so I can fangirl over your wedding plans.

My personal hobbies include rock climbing, learning French, fine-tuning my espresso skills, and drinking the best wine I can get my hands on (yes, if you're getting married at a winery, I'm interested!). I've been photographing weddings since 2009 (that's 15 years!) and I'm still not even the least bit bored. Hell, I still cry at weddings on a regular basis. Staying emotional and in the moment is what allows me to capture the moments that matter most to my couples.

Rima is hands down the world’s best wedding photographer. Having been in a fair number of weddings and as a guest at countless others, I’ve had many experiences with wedding photographers, and Rima beats them all by a mile. She is very nice and extremely professional, and always knows how to get the perfect shot while seamlessly blending in with your guests. She also got us through the wedding party/family photos quickly and efficiently, which I really appreciated. Her videographer Robert was also fantastic - so kind, courteous, and professional! Rima also shot our engagement photos - she woke up insanely early to get sunrise pictures of us at Central Park, which were absolutely gorgeous. She is extremely flexible and patient, great qualities in a photographer! She also got us our previews of both our wedding and engagement pictures really quickly, which was fantastic, as we were so excited to see them. Rima was the first vendor we chose and we are so happy we were able to book her. If you book Rima, you won’t be disappointed!

They were calm, confident and efficiently wrangled all family and friends for formal photos, and kept our timeline on track. They made everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera, and it shows in the photos! We continue to marvel at our gallery, and how insanely talented Cassie & Alex are. The photos are gorgeous, and capture the true feeling of our wedding day. Some of our favorite photos are the "in-between" moments they got of our loved ones celebrating together.

Lindsey, a Virginia native, took her first photo class in high school and has developed a passion for photography and videography ever since!

Awarded Best of Zola
Lindsey is truly so kind, professional, and talented. We booked Lindsey only about 6 months before our wedding after our original photographer needed to cancel. From the start Lindsey was so sweet and understanding, and made sure we were a good fit - even when there was a bit of a time crunch to find an available photographer. Lindsey offered a complimentary mini "engagement" shoot so we could get to know each other before the wedding day. She arrived on time and stayed from getting ready to very close to the end of the night. 90% of the time we didn't even know she was there capturing candid moments. We felt completely comfortable, even when prompted for different poses and angles. Lindsey kept saying "trust me it feels awkward but it looks beautiful!" And she was definitely right! Our photo gallery came out better than we imagined and I've never loved photos of myself more than these. Within a week we received a large sneak peek gallery, more photos after a month or 2, and our full gallery within 3 months after the wedding. We were even offered another full gallery of extra photos to purchase (and of course we did cause they are SO good). Heart Speak Visuals is EXTREMELY reasonable for both the quantity and quality of their work. Nothing but amazing things to say!

As the bride, there was so much going on and I didn't have to direct J. at all, he just flowed through the preparation, ceremony and party with ease and captured everything. He also had some fabulous ideas for posed pictures post ceremony. From the start I knew he would be great because he contacted me immediately after I sent a request to him and actually PICKED UP THE PHONE to speak in person. Crucial in my book! We were absolutely impressed with his professionalism and the pictures are beyond even "a thousand words". We couldn't be happier.

Nicole and I would not have been happier with the choice to book Steve for our engagement/wedding photos and video. We were nervous and uncomfortable with posing and stressing out about how we would look in our photos, but he did his absolute best to make it super fun and stress free. We look at these photos and are still in shock at how beautiful we felt and how much fun we had. He communicated with us every step of the way and took the time to understand and execute our vision. We wanted a couples handshake stop motion … seems a little out there, right? Well … he made it happen and I’m still crying over it today. We had a few photos to swoon over as soon as a few hours later(to hold us over), and the rest came super quickly as well. I could go on and on, but I think you get the point.

At first I was nervous to work along another shooter other then my friend. Her and I did not know each other and she’s been at this business far longer then I have so it was definitely intimidating at first. But after the first hour shooting under her I knew it was a good fit to work with her as her second. Throughout the weddings we’ve work, a great friendship has been formed and I’ve learned a lot from her as a photographer and how to better my business in the wedding industry. Her quality of work and experience make her stand out among the rest! If you need a photographer for your special day she is the best to work with! Very understanding, helpful, fun, and amazing!

The photos were presented in an easy to access gallery where you can also print them or make them into an album. We are absolutely in LOVE with the photos she took of us!

My husband and I explained that we were looking for an authentic, unstaged, photojournalistic depiction of our wedding day. When we looked at the pictures, we wanted to be able to feel exactly how we felt that day. We got married last week and from the sneak peaks that we’ve seen Julian and Sarah captured that, despite inclement weather! We couldn’t imagine our wedding without either of them! We had two photographers for 8 hours, which was able to cover getting ready photos, the ceremony, family portraits, and the reception. Never having planned a wedding before, Julian was completely honest with us, shared his professional opinions, and advised based on our requests. His laid back demeanor, go-with-the-flow attitude and artistic vision complemented our day perfectly. We had three children in our wedding party and he was so great with them as well. From the two pictures they’ve shared on social media, they’ve captured exactly what we wanted. Can’t wait to see the rest! Book this Orchard Street, I promise you won’t regret it!

When I’m not taking pictures of people and events, I love to travel the world, play video games, watch movies and anime, play basketball, and take pictures of my dog Mikey!

Hi, My name is Hiba. I am a "people's" photographer. It didn't take me too long to realize how much I enjoy working with people, talking and having a laugh together while we make the best out of the moment; while I capture your moments. I don't usually miss a chance to talk about my cat Anola but I would briefly say that she is the best thing that happened in my life. Our family of three lives happily in a cozy house in the NY/NJ area.

I've had a camera in my hands for as long as I can remember; I used it like a pocket journal of sorts and photographed constantly while growing up in Hawai'i. I fell into weddings when my dad remarried in 2013, and I remember being caught off guard by the swirl of emotions I felt standing at the edge of a new beginning. Turning those feelings into tangible memories was the only thing that made sense. I moved to New York City to refine my skillset and took a detour into the fashion industry before receiving my Bachelor's in photography from NYU.

Hi! I'm Chrissy. I've been lucky enough to photograph weddings and meet tons of awesome couples since 2014.

One of the easiest people to talk to and work with. We gave her some general guidance of what we wanted and she managed to capture it all and more. To top it all off she took absolutely the best picture of my wife that exists hands down.

I started working as a photographer because I'm passionate about helping people showcase who they are and what they have to offer. I work to remove myself from the equation and let my clients take the spotlight. It's thrilling to jump into a session and come out on the other side having learned beautiful new things about a person. When behind the camera I'm coaching you ever step of the way - helping you feel comfortable enough to let your true self emerge.

Michael's joy in his work is so evident on a wedding day. He is kind, professional, and a true cheerleader for the couples he works with. It is always a good day with Michael because he brings a level of passion and kindness to every part of a wedding day. I can't say enough good things about Michael! I always look forward to working with him!
