Your wedding day will move fast and the moments that matter most will happen when no one's looking. That's exactly what I'm there for. With 400+ weddings behind me, I've spent years perfecting the art of capturing the real thing: the laugh you didn't know was caught, the tear your dad tried to hide, the quiet moment between just the two of you. Based at the edge of the Adirondacks, I'll follow your story wherever it takes us across New York State and Vermont, wherever your day unfolds.

Hey, I'm Joliette! I recently moved to Westchester, NY with my husband and labradoodle, Basil, after living in Manhattan for the last 8 years. I'm obsessed with dancing, cookies, dogs, and of course, love! I put relationships first, photos second. I want to know your love story, so I can capture your true essence. I'm not just here for the photos, I'm here to make your life easier, however I can! When you see me and my camera, I want you to breathe a sigh of relief, not tense up at the sound of the shutter. That's why I'll help you figure out ALL of the details of your session from start to finish.

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Joliette to do our engagement shoot and our civil wedding, and the photos were simply amazing! Joliette made both occasion shoots such an incredible and special experience! Neither my husband or I had ever done a photoshoot before our engagement shoot, and we were worried about the photos not looking organic, but Joliette went above and beyond to ensure we were comfortable and truly ourselves in order to capture our love and personalities in all the photos! We also got the chance to view the gallery for the first time live with Joliette which was so fun and special, as she was able to see our first reactions and joy in the magic she created for us. The photos came out so amazing, and beyond our expectations, she did such an amazing job, and I can't say enough good things! If you're looking for a photographer for an engagement, wedding, or really any type of photoshoot I HIGHLY recommend Joliette!!

Communication was clear throughout the entire process (from our engagement photos to our wedding day photos) and he was always friendly and personable.

Photography for people who dread being photographed. With 15+ years specializing in camera-shy couples, I've learned that your wedding is not a generic fantasy from the interne, it's a legacy. The industry pushes couples to perform for the camera, but when you already feel awkward being photographed, that pressure can erase the real, unscripted story of your people. My approach is built for humans who hate being photographed. I create an experience that melts stiffness and anxiety so the raw, honest truth of your connection shows up and the story of everyone who matters is protected.

Awarded Best of Zola
Here’s the thing: my husband (!) and I are awkward, full stop. Once a camera is involved, we both get full blown weirdo paralysis. Photos were the part of the wedding we were dreading most. Yet Cass showed up and somehow made us feel completely at ease. The time flew by, the love and joy flowed freely and, from what we’ve seen so far, the images reflect it. Cannot recommend Cass enough.

I’m Donna Marie—the introverted, hella awkward + nerdy, all about the vibes and adventure(ish) soul that you can typically find behind the camera (rather than in front of it). I'm here to serve + empower all the introverted, awkward in-front-of-the-lens, adventure(ish) couples who want to have an authentic, non-traditional wedding experience across upstate and northern New York. What matters most are the emotions you experience as your wedding day unfolds. Whether that be in a place with easy to reach epic views, or any place or location that embodies who you are. I’m your go-to gal when you decide to take control of your wedding day.

Hiring Donna was the best wedding decision we made! She's insanely talented, works at a ridiculously fast pace, and was so dialed in on the day, getting every important shot, that you'd think we had 2 photographers by looking at our gallery. As if that wasn't enough already, she's incredibly supportive of her couples by being queer-inclusive and super accommodating. She was such a hit at our wedding that two guests are already determined to hire Donna for their own weddings (copycats!).

Awarded Best of Zola
I have no doubt of the talent that overflows from this studio, but mine and my (now husband!)'s hearts were set on Rob after we spent 3 hours hanging out with him, sheltering from the cold rain since we motorcycled there. His grace and warm demeanor belies how quickly and astutely he notices little details, almost like a supercomputer (or like a Rob...ot! hah). He is an expert at assessing lighting situations, but what's even more impressive is how he can massage the vibe of the room to herd people where he wants them to go. Also, his double-holster camera setup makes him look so freakin cool! I often feel like weddings are an elaborate play/dinner, meant to entertain and satiate the family members who attend. Considering the stress of being project manager and hostess, having Rob for our engagement shoot and on our wedding day was something we both looked forward to immensely. Things are fun with him! And he's so thoughtful, another relief from stressful planning and expectations. He went rooting through the shrubbery and got us pictures of adorable bumblebees, remembering that we were so smitten by them during our engagement shoot :) He didn't find any snails, though! Oh, well! I'm often critical of photographers' work because I am so critical of my own. But, without a doubt, I recognize the leagues of honed talent that Rob has, as well as his studio! The assistant, Lilly, is smart and such a sweetheart, and whoever does the editing -- Emily? -- is awesome. For people who would prefer to do photography work themselves, Ryan and I choose Rob without question. Thank you, Rob and co., for all your hard work and dedication to craft!!!!!!

Eddie, our lead photographer, was one of the best parts of our special day. He was extremely organized and helped lay out the timeline perfectly, and he was so thoughtful - he even had extra bobby pins on hand when my hair needed a touch-up, and he helped the groomsmen with their boutonnieres at the church. We cannot recommend Anecdote Photography highly enough - their attention to detail is impeccable, and they are truly wonderful to work with. Please consider them for your next event!

I was pretty nervous about being photographed on my wedding day, especially because it was my first time with a professional. But the second Dani arrived and the day started rolling, I magically forgot my nerves and just felt so AMAZING and present and silly and myself! Dani was so calm and so sweet and knew exactly what to do and where to shoot and how to pose us all, even though it was her first time meeting a lot of us, and she had never been to our backyard before. It was so cool! She really connected with us all and made me and my now husband feel so comfortable on our big day. Receiving our preview photos just 2 days after the wedding filled me with happiness and relief - I looked good! Lol!!! And, the spirit of the day was embedded in all the photos, crowned with perfect golden aesthetic. Wow. Seriously love them so much and have not stopped staring and am so glad we trusted Dani with capturing such an important day. She did it effortlessly and with great love and care and artistry.

Thalia is truly exceptional -- not only is she an extremely talented photographer, but she is incredibly easy and fun to work with. She is artistic, organized, leads an amazing team, and could not have made us felt more at ease during our wedding. We were absolutely blown away looking through our wedding album. Thalia and her team managed to capture every single emotion we felt throughout the weekend, in a way that transported us back to each moment. One of the defining moments of our wedding was when it started to rain during the ceremony - it was unexpected, joyful chaos, and made for one of the most special parts of the weekend. Thalia somehow managed to run in front of my husband and I as we were sprinting, smiles on our faces, back to the barn with our guests to wait out the rain. That single moment must have been so difficult to capture, but is one of the most incredible photos in the album. My husband and I didn't end up doing an engagement photoshoot, so our wedding was the first time we were formally in front of a camera. Thalia offered clear but gentle direction that made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera, helped us lean into the moment, and made us feel just like ourselves. We got rave reviews from our wedding party, family, and friends about Thalia and her team - she felt like part of our friend group throughout the weekend. Her energy, artistic talent, optimism, and enthusiasm is unmatched. We can't imagine anyone else capturing our wedding weekend. We absolutely love Thalia and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking to hire a fantastic wedding photographer!

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 is the VIBE! I can't give enough stars! From the unexpectedly windy engagement shoot, to the magic of the 1st look, to the moody magazine worthy portraits, to capturing the best moments all night..he adapted and integrated himself into our day and our family with ease. He blended into the background and truly felt like he was part of the party! Richard is a true professional! He comes off super relaxed and casually says he "has some ideas" and then he turns on the magic. He plays with the lighting and the surroundings and the weather and adapts any moment and any backdrop into a canvas for his art. I really could go on for paragraphs over how spectacular he was to work with, and it brings tears to my eyes to write this after I relive our wedding day in each and every photograph he took that day. I can feel every moment all over again and it is truly remarkable! Thank you Richard for becoming part of our family! xoxo -Lauren and Chris

We had the pleasure of working with Magalie LaFleur Photography for our engagement shoot in New York City, and we couldn't be more thrilled with the results! From the moment we connected, Magalie made us feel at ease, which was so important for us as we really wanted her to capture a mix of impromptu moments and posed photos. The session was incredibly fun, and the photos truly captured our personalities and the energy of the city. Magalie has an amazing eye for detail and was able to guide us in natural, effortless poses that resulted in breathtaking photos. Not only was the quality of the photos outstanding, but the entire experience was smooth, relaxed, and professional. Magalie was incredibly responsive throughout the whole process, and the turnaround time for the photos was as promised! Would highly recommend any engaged couples work with Magalie!

After graduating from Parson's School of Art in Manhattan, I worked as a fine artist, my work involved photography and photo manipulation. I quickly discovered that I loved and excelled at photo retouching, and went on to work for some of the best photo retouching studios in New York. In 2009 I shot my first wedding, it was a dear friend of mine and the beautiful photos were featured in one of the biggest wedding magazines. I realized that I had found my calling and have been producing stunning wedding photographs with my amazing team and clients ever since.

Working with Emma Cleary and her team was nothing short of a dream. Emma took the time to get to know my husband and I as we began the wedding planning process, and we were in incredible hands day-of. Her wonderful photographer, Asya, took our engagement photos and also took the photos for the big day. It was a pleasure working with Emma and her team.

Visit my Instagram for contact info and more photography! — ErinWholleyPhotography • Weddings are a culmination of love, life, happiness, family history, commitment, art, and so much more. My love for photography and the importance it plays in remembering cherished moments spans decades. Photographs are one of the only tangible items you receive after your wedding day (aside from the memories) to help you relive this time for the rest of your days. I will hype you up all day long to make sure you are enjoying every aspect of your day with your partner— that’s truly what it’s all about!

Erin was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! From the planning process to the day itself I truly don’t even have words. I had a wedding party of 26 people not including our parents who also had to be photographed. If I had to guess I would say that’s probably a photographer’s worst nightmare lol but Erin never once made me feel like our people were a hassle and she did an amazing job of keeping everything organized and even had me laughing the entire day. When people tell you that your photographer is worth the investment because that’s who you spend your entire day with, please listen to them. I could go on and on about how easy Erin was to work with and how well she orchestrated the day but what drew me to her originally was her work. I didn’t want my wedding photos to look exactly like everyone else’s and Erin’s style of photography was exactly what I wanted. I feel like saying she’s creative isn’t enough of a compliment. She is so insanely talented and truly has mastered every part of her job. I was incredibly anxious the day of my wedding hoping everything would run smoothly and when it wasn’t Erin stepped in immediately to help. She was even reaching out to vendors FOR me the day before my wedding so that I could fully enjoy my rehearsal dinner. If you’re thinking of hiring Erin you absolutely should you will be sooo happy you did!
