Hey! My name is Bill. I’ve been practicing photography since 2016, where I started in automotive (if you can guess what I named my business after, bonus points). My whole process is structured mainly to eliminate the stress of worrying about your timeline on your special day. It starts with a consultation, and ends with a call a month before to solidify your schedule. My style is a blend of documentary and artistic, meaning the candid photos are what really matter, but the posed photos are what might print and frame. Regardless, your day is my focus (pun intended). If you think we’d vibe, let’s chat and make your special day great!

I haven’t even gotten married yet (wedding to come) and he’s been nothing short of amazing! Can’t wait to see my wedding photos! Highly recommend him!

Her work is truly 1000000/10 - the photos she captured of our special day are beyond stunning. When we had to pivot to an indoor ceremony due to unexpected rain and fog, Brea rolled with the punches seamlessly and found a way to make the beauty of the weather shine through in the most gorgeous way. We also had the pleasure of doing engagement photos with Brea, and they were just as beautiful as the wedding day shots. Brea has been completely wonderful throughout the entire process, and we feel so lucky to have found her to document our love story.

We are a husband and wife team with a passion for capturing and telling the stories of love. Our own love story started as a friendship and eventually flourished into a romance and then marriage. Our wedding day experience provided us with a glimpse into a world where dreams come true and memories are captured and made to last forever. We consider it a special type of honor to bear witness (with a camera in hand) as two families join together in the spirit of love and union. We believe that your wedding day is the anchor by which the family foundation is formed to allow a newly joined family to grow as ours did. -Roberto and Sara Bueno

Awarded Best of Zola
Best videographer ever!!! From the beginning Roberto was so professional, but fun! We knew that’s the vibe we wanted at our wedding. He was so patient with us and all of our questions about the process. The moment he and his team arrived at our wedding, they were apart of the group. They seemed like they had known us, our family, and friends for forever. It made for such a warm, comfortable, fun vibe - especially on the dance floor. Not only that, but we had about 250 people there, Roberto stayed late on request. We were so appreciative that he did so, especially in a whim and how late it was! Also, we were worried about having a hurricane around our wedding day - Roberto made sure to reach out and ensure the day would be beautiful and he would be there. That’s not only top of the line customer service but shows he and his team are great people. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!!

From budget development to design and finding the perfect vendor team to pull it all together, I partner with you from the beginning!

We can’t thank Jennifer enough for everything she did to ensure our wedding day ran seamlessly. Choosing her as our wedding planner was an easy decision—her years of experience, deep knowledge of our venue (Aldworth Manor), and strong relationships with local vendors made her the perfect fit. She was instrumental in keeping us organized throughout the planning process with regular check-ins and was always available to answer my questions and calm my wedding planning anxieties. Her vendor recommendations were invaluable—from catering and florals to rentals and our officiant. Each vendor she recommended knocked it out of the park. Jennifer truly listened to our vision and offered thoughtful suggestions. Her easygoing demeanor made her a pleasure to work with, and her extensive experience planning weddings at Aldworth was a huge advantage—she knew the venue inside and out. Another bonus was her impressive inventory of décor. We were able to use so many of her beautiful items, which saved us from having to purchase everything ourselves. Honestly, I don’t think anything went wrong on our wedding day, and if something did, Jennifer and her team handled it seamlessly—without me ever knowing!

I've spent over 25 years behind the camera, telling stories through portrait, wedding, and fine art photography. I’m driven by real emotion—the quiet moments, laughter, and genuine connection that make each story unique. While in London, I earned a distinction from The Royal Photographic Society for my documentary portrait work. I studied at the Brooks Institute of Photography and continued learning through workshops with 2MU, Jerry Ghionis, Parker Pfister, Brook Shaden, Cliff Mautner, and Paulina Duczman. Every shoot is a chance to connect and create something meaningful.

Sally was a delight to work with! We were drawn to her documentary style that captured candid *moments*. Her portfolio showed that she had a solid understanding of composition, texture, and light & shadow. Additionally, it was important to us to have an inclusive photographer who respected all identities and cultures. From the very beginning, Sally was open and communicative, taking the time to understand our wedding day, offering timeline suggestions, answering questions, and getting to know us and our style. We had multiple experiences on our wedding day, including a tea ceremony and lion dance, so there were many moving parts, making for a full day. On the day of our wedding, Sally and her assistant, Gael, were prompt and starting working right way. Sally was geared up with multiple cameras and a harness. She even brought accessories to stage items for detail photos (such a ring holder and ribbon!). Sally was familiar with our venue, Lake Morey Resort, and had a lot of ideas on where to take photos (despite the slightly rainy day!). Additionally, Sally and Gael were extremely patient with our relatives, all of whom acted as paparazzi. We were super impressed with the photos Sally captured, despite our relatives randomly jumping in to grab a photo on their phones! Sally and Gael were everywhere and oftentimes, we didn't even notice they were there to capture certain moments! They were truly professionals who kept up their energy and enthusiasm the entire day, and worked in harmony with our videographer and the venue coordinator. Due to family request, our photos were a blend of candid shots and formal portraits. Sally balanced these perfectly, doing an excellent job with both styles of photography. We were impressed at how quickly we received sneak peeks. Photos from the entire day were delivered via an elegant USB flash drive. Sally exceeded all of our expectations. Her photos captured real, candid moments, beautifully reflecting the joy of the day. We only wish we hired her for the entire weekend!

I am a cinematographer based out of Rochester, New York. In over ten years I’ve evolved from shooting choppy ski movies on a beat up GoPro to professionally delivering high-quality films for couples seeking to preserve their special days. When I watch my old GoPro footage, even all these years later, I can feel myself transported back to that time and place, just like I can with the thousands of other videos that I’ve taken since. It’s that power to preserve special moments - and the different constellations of memories and emotions that make them special - that drove me to cultivate filmography as a hobby.

My husband and I got married in September 2023 & worked with Nick, he is absolutely incredible! I know people are hesitant about getting a videographer for their wedding - but working with Nick will be the best decision you ever made. He is so talented, made the entire process so easy for us, he is so kind & professional, and he delivered my husband & I the most stunning wedding video. He captured our day so beautifully and I will forever be thankful for him that we get to relive the day over and over - HIGHLY recommend him to anyone looking for a wedding videographer!

Just a girl living in Brooklyn who is obsessed with her Frenchie named Yoshi. I started my photography business 10 years ago and it was the best decision I ever made. Throughout the years I've photographed every type of wedding you can think of and have been so lucky to call a lot of my clients friends now. If you're into it, I'm a true Enneagram 2 & a Pisces - what a combo right? To sum it up, I'm emotional, I'm intuitive, I'm an empath, and I'm a dreamer. These traits are what represent/help my business - I'm able to work and connect with almost anyone (even those tough MIL's love me!). My main priority is to make sure my clients have fun!

Working with Tonhya was so much fun! She has a clear artistic vision and instantly understood the mood we wanted to capture. Beyond being great to work with, she’s just a wonderful person—chill, easygoing, and so easy to work with. We can't wait to come back to her for any future photo opportunities.
