Anj Photographer

  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Rifton, NY

One of the most important aspects of a photo is the emotion it conveys. While I have years of training and experience, photographing love cannot be reduced to lighting and angles. ​ Well before your special day. I hear my client's love story. This helps me create eye-catching images that portray the kind of affection that is unique to each couple. I pride myself in being a storyteller-photographer.

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I worked with Anj for our engagement photos in Spring 2023 and our wedding photography on September 30, and we are very happy with the results! Anj was kind, talented, affordable, and a pleasure to work with. We loved our engagement photos in Wissahickon Park. Anj spoke with us before both projects to get a sense of what we wanted, and she understood our desire for unpretentious, mostly candid, true-to-life yet elevated style in the photos. She was excellent in directing our families on the wedding day for posed family and bridal party photos in an unfamiliar location. Several of our family members told us afterward that they were impressed with her organization and clear directions she gave them. And she suggested we have a friend do a video of our first look while she photographed it, which was the best decision we made. The moment was intimate and we forgot she or anyone else was in the room. The pictures of this turned out so well too! She took pictures of me getting ready with my bridesmaids and was well-liked by everyone there including the hair stylists and my little niece. I was really nervous in the beginning of the day and she really helped me feel centered. And towards the end of the night, Anj even helped instruct us how to cut our wedding cake when we couldn't find a staff person at our venue to do so - while taking photos of us at the same time! To summarize, she gave us exactly what we wanted, was friendly and efficient, returned photos in very fast (about 4 weeks), and was very professional and calm. We highly recommend her wedding and engagement photography services!

I am typically a Type B person in my life, but when it came to our wedding day, I wanted everything to be exactly how I wanted it. This included researching quite literally hundreds of photographers. As a super DIY wedding, I wanted to be able to look back on our photos and be able to relive it without it feeling overly filtered or untrue to how it was in real life. When we came across Fireside Sparrow, not only did the style of photography stand out to us as authentic, but you could just feel that Stephanie was authentic as well. She and Steve fit our vibe perfectly leading up to and the day of our wedding. Her attention to detail and ability to be professional but also feel like your number one fan made our wedding day run so smoothly. They’re now a part of our story forever.

I believe you should be present on your wedding day, not rushing through a timeline just to check boxes. That's why our goal is to provide our couples with a photography experience that allows you to be fully present so that you can truly have the time of your life celebrating with your people, laugh your way through pictures, and dance the night away with your best friends. In the end, your wedding images should be a direct reflection of the memories you made, not moments that were forced.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot recommend Meghan enough. We've just gotten our sneak peeks and I'm on the edge of my seat waiting for our full gallery! Our photos are stunning, and she went above and beyond just photos. When I didn't know where to turn in some planning aspects, I asked if she had any advice and she always came through. She was so chill throughout everything. She knows weddings like the back of her hand. I never felt like we were on our own. She kept me cool and calm when some family members sparked some frustration. She kept us on track with our requested shot list but also gave us room to explore different poses and different locations at the venue. She was also great at giving my husband (!) and me directions on how to pose (we're quite awkward in front of the camera) and managed to make us look like complete naturals! She also brought along her amazing team so we got so many pictures and amazing candid moments. Just a few of the sneak peeks have already made me tear up. Our day was amazing and I couldn't have asked for anyone better to document it all. By the end of it all, Meghan felt more like a friend than just our photographer. THANK YOU MEGHAN!! YOU QUEEN!!

Throughout the entire journey, Jenni was in constant communication and made me feel so comfortable sharing my thoughts and preferences.

And then… the sneak peeks! I audibly gasped when I saw them for the first time—then cried. The photos are exactly what I dreamed of: warm, tender, intimate, and full of love. They captured the heart of our day so perfectly. If you’re looking for someone who will not only give you gorgeous wedding photos but will also make you feel seen, heard, and cared for—Jenni is your person.

Hiba removed any stress I had about photos as a nervous bride who did not feel confident or comfortable being in front of a camera all day. She spent time getting to know us and made sure we were able to capture amazing, memorable photos, without losing sight of the actual point of the day and party we were there to enjoy. Multiple times she seamlessly adapted our shot plan on-the-fly to let us have more time to be with guests or have a moment to ourselves when she sensed we needed it. ALSO she was a baby whisperer with our flower girl and turned frowns into smiles and I'm still not sure how she did that. Highly recommend Hiba!

Wow, where do I even start with Aidin and Novél Cinema? From the first meeting we had with them, my partner and I felt super comfortable. They were friendly, excited about our big day, and really listened to what we wanted. The amount of effort they put into making our wedding video was just amazing. They didn't miss a single detail - from close-ups of my dress to capturing the look in my partner's eyes when we said 'I do'. There were so many moments they captured that were just perfect. The moments with my girls as I was getting ready, my dad tearing up during our dance, and all our friends having a blast at the reception. They managed to get it all and put it together beautifully. When we got our final video, we were blown away. It wasn't just a wedding video, it was like a romantic movie about our day. Every time we watch it, it's like we're right back there, reliving all those wonderful moments. Choosing Novél Cinema was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. They were professional, dedicated, and so talented. We're over the moon with how the video turned out and we'll treasure it forever. If you're getting married and want to capture your day in a truly special way, we can't recommend Novél Cinema enough. They don't just make wedding videos, they make beautiful films that you'll want to watch again and again. Thank you, Novél Cinema and Aidin, for giving us such a perfect keepsake of our perfect day.

Johnny Herbert Music

  • Ceremony only
  • Serves Rifton, NY

A graduate from USC Thornton School of Music in Los Angeles, Johnny has studied and performed classical piano music for over 20 years. Since 2010, Johnny has provided music for more than 300 wedding ceremonies all over the country. With a set list of over 300 songs, Johnny can play and sing standards from Gershwin, Frank Sinatra, Stevie Wonder, and the Beatles. Adding live music will enhance and enliven your wedding ceremony, party or cocktail hour.

We hired Johnny to play during our Ceremony and for cocktail hour. It was one of the best decisions we made for the day. His music (ukulele and vocals) during the ceremony was absolutely beautiful. He was on the keys for cocktail hour and entertained with some classics and big-band music (e.g. Frank Sinatra). Hearing that my wife was a big Disney fan during our vows, Johnny switched to a Disney playlist halfway through cocktail hour and it was a HIT! The true sign of an top-notch musician is someone who can read the audience and adapt on the fly. Weeks later, our guests still rave about Johnny and tell us we should have hired him to play longer. (We agree!) Johnny was the ultimate professional throughout the entire process, from planning to the day of. He had a meeting with us to go over our music preferences and work through the flow of the ceremony. I HIGHLY recommend Johnny for your special day - you'll be glad you do.

Awarded Best of Zola
We had the absolute pleasure of working with Daniel for not one, but TWO wedding days. Our wedding plans were a bit…unconventional. When we first got engaged, we decided to elope (just the 2 of us) to Ireland. However, due to logistics, we decided it would be best to sign all the legal paperwork before we departed. We also really wanted an opportunity to celebrate with our families and friends upon our return with a larger-scale party–and we wanted both days to be documented with beautiful photos that captured the different vibes of each event. Enter Daniel! We discussed our ideas with Daniel during our first consultation, and he was more than willing to make our vision a reality. He created a custom package to incorporate both days, and was excited to capture two very different events for us. In the months of planning that followed, we were beyond appreciative of his patience, understanding, and flexibility as we navigated the various concepts for what both unconventional wedding days would look like. Before we get to any of that though, we have to talk about our engagement photo shoot. As big fans of professional wrestling, we wanted to somehow incorporate that into the photos. So we contacted Warriors of Wrestling, a local promotion here on Staten Island, and they agreed to let us use their ring for the shoot! This was a first for Daniel, and he was thrilled to have the opportunity to do something different. He made us look like real superstars that day, and the images he captured are some of our all time favorites. A few weeks prior to our “first” wedding day in June of ‘23, Daniel met with us at our home to get an idea of the layout and review the timeline. We then went to Fort Wadsworth park, where the post-ceremony photos would be taken, and scouted out the best locations for photos. By the time the actual day arrived, everything was perfectly planned out, and Daniel’s amazing photos really captured the intimate nature of our living room ceremony with 10 family members looking on. We capped the night off with a trip to Duffy’s Tavern – a local Irish bar – where we got some great photos of us enjoying huge burgers and pints of Guinness! Daniel was by our side the whole time, and he helped make the day so special. Fast forward a few months and it was finally the day of our reception! Our family, friends, and co-workers all gathered at the Nassau Inn in Princeton NJ to celebrate us. Right in the middle of it all, of course, was Daniel, capturing moments in time that we will cherish forever. His photography truly is art, and you can see his passion for this through his lens. The photos that stand out the most from our reception are the shots on the dance floor. We feel that one place Daniel’s talent shines brightest is his ability to tell an entire story in one click of the shutter–and the photos of ourselves and our loved ones having a blast truly encapsulate the feelings we had in those moments. Through it all, we feel Daniel became an honorary family member thanks to his enthusiasm and genuine investment in telling our love story. Our photos are EVERYTHING we were hoping for and more. We cannot recommend Daniel enough.

We’re Anton & Natalie - your new adventure buddies! On our first date we spent the day doing what we love most, getting outside. That’s also how we spent our wedding day, and most other significant, life-altering moments in our relationship. We fundamentally believe that the best day of your life should be spent doing what makes your heart sing. You’re not here because you don’t care about your day, you’re here because you care more. You don’t want the ordinary and traditional. You want care more about experiences rather than material possessions. You want the authentic, intimate, and intentional day which focuses on YOU as a couple.

Awarded Best of Zola
Anton and Natalie have done several shoots for us between family photos, boudoir, and our couples photos! They have amazing location ideas, and do a fabulous job capturing our personalities as well as the beauty of what landscape we are photo shooting in. I truly could not recommend the quality of their work more, promptness with proofs and edits, and such fun personalities to work with. Thank you guys!

I’ve spent years refining an approach that allows me to sincerely honor the moment — knowing when to step in and adjust a subject or environment, and sensing when to stand back and allow a moment to just be. With me, your photographs will be an intentional representation of this time of your life — imagery that will make you feel like it was just yesterday, and yet, feel forever untouched by time. Truly, the honor is all mine. Thank you for considering me to document this luxuriously intimate wedding event.

I can not recommend April and Mike enough!! From the moment I saw their pictures on Instagram from another wedding, I knew I needed to have them for my own wedding. Since the day I reached out them, they've done nothing but exceeded all of my expectations. April and Mike make a special effort to really get to know us as a couple which made all of our photos even more personal. For our engagement shoot, they traveled 2+ hours to the Jersey Shore so that we could take our pictures in a place that is special to us. When our shoot was cut just a tiny bit short because of the weather, April offered us a secondary shoot to make up for lost time. I also did a boudoir shoot with April and absolutely loved her style of the photos. April went above and beyond during my entire wedding planning process to help with timelines, answer any questions I have and even provide outfit recommendations for our various shoots. The amount of compliments I've gotten on my engagement and wedding photos are unreal! April & Mike started as just our wedding photographers and ended as our friends. If you're reading this because you're thinking about hiring April & Mike....DO IT.

Hi! My name is Siobhán and I am originally from NYC now based in Saratoga Springs, NY. With almost a decade of experience in the wedding industry, I've had the privilege of photographing countless weddings. From the initial consultation, to the timeline of the day and the final delivery of your special memories, I will be there for you every step of the way!

Awarded Best of Zola
Siobhán was amazing to work with, she was very flexible with a change in the getting ready location and her assistant both made sure to get the pictures we wanted. She gave clear directions on where to go for group photos and helped everyone stay organized when groups of people were switching out. When I got my pictures back I was blown away, they were even better than i could have imagined and the editing on them was perfect. I would highly recommend her, she really captured everything we wanted in our special day.
