Some photographers and videographers will tell you they discovered their passion early. For me, it was a feeling I couldn't shake. A wedding day is one of the few moments in life when everything that matters happens all at once, and someone needs to be trusted to hold it. I've been that person for over 400 couples since 2009. From intimate ceremonies in the Finger Lakes to grand celebrations at Rochester's most iconic venues, I've spent more than fifteen years learning how a wedding day breathes. Where the emotion lives, when to move closer, and when to simply be still and let a moment unfold on its own.

“Hiring Darren as our wedding videographer was one of the best decisions we made. From the very beginning, he was professional, easy to work with, and made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera. On our wedding day, he captured so many incredible moments without ever making us feel like we were being pulled away from the experience. He blended in seamlessly and allowed us to stay present while still preserving every special memory. When we received our video, we were absolutely blown away. It was stunning and captured the emotions, joy, and love of the day so perfectly. Watching it brought us right back to those moments, and it’s something we will treasure forever. We are so grateful to Darren and would recommend him to any couple looking for a videographer who is both talented and wonderful to work with.”

She was so good at communicating leading up to the wedding as well. Kin isn't your typical wedding venue; they prioritize individuality, listening to your vision and bringing it to life. The space is a beautiful blank canvas and the location is ideal as it’s right off East Ave and very close to hotels. Both Kin and Root, owned by Kristen, excel in quality and service.

This isn't about coverage or checklists. It's about translating atmosphere into film - the shift in light, the energy in the room, the quiet moments only a few people notice. ​ I don't measure time. I measure emotion. With full day coverage, every moment is framed and edited to feel alive, intentional, and unmistakably yours. ​ Included in every film: a same-day bride and groom love story interview - candid, unfiltered, and intimate - so your wedding film doesn't just show what happened, it tells who you are. Every shot earns its place. Every edit carries purpose.

“We hired Corey last minute as we were incredibly indecisive about having a videographer. Hiring Corey was the best decision we made vendor wise for our wedding. He fit seamlessly into our day. He knew where to be, when to be there and had so many thoughts and ideas that I would never have come up with on my own. He was prompt, organized and incredibly creative! He captured all of the perfect moments and crafted a beautiful video that succeeded all of our expectations. We will cherish his work forever and are very grateful we had him as a part of our wedding day. If you are on the fence, you won’t regret it!”

My name is Makenzie Sonricker and I own MJH Beauty. I am a licensed esthetician and professional makeup artist. I obtained my esthetics license in 2014 and started my makeup journey in 2013. I have extensive makeup experience ranging from weddings, events, runway, photoshoots, publications, anything involving makeup I’ve likely had my hands in it!

“I found Makenzie through social media and booked her for a bridal trial. I was able to discuss my ideal look with her and we worked together that day to make changes throughout the trial. The trial went wonderfully and the make up lasted so well, so I booked her for my wedding. Makenzie did my make up as well as my mom's and MOHs. Makenzie is kind and takes the time to consult throughout the make up process. I heard her check in with both of them while their make up was being done to see how they liked where it was currently at. After the trial I made a few notes of changes I would like to make the day of my wedding. That morning when I sat in her chair I discussed these changes with Makenzie and we made it happen. Her attention to detail is evident in the way she asks you to look at the current look if you want to change the color slightly she will take the time to do so until it looks exactly how you want. Makenzie will make sure you feel comfortable and confident in your final result.”

Jacalyn delivered and more! Jacalyn took photos on our wedding day and during our Vietnamese tea ceremony the night prior. We also asked her to add on Super 8 film for our wedding day - and it was worth every penny! (For shooting the Super 8, she was accompanied by her second shooter, Bekah, who was equally amazing!) Jacalyn is truly a professional through and through. She was extremely organized throughout the entire wedding planning process and kept communication open. On the wedding day, I was stressed about a lot of things - but the photos were not one of them! Throughout the day, she was able to capture so many special moments that I would never have even seen otherwise given how preoccupied my husband and I were. I am eternally grateful for her ability to capture such details through her work. She not only has a great eye and instinct, but her editing style is impeccable.

On our wedding day, Amanda went above and beyond—when my dress ripped right before I walked down the aisle, she didn't hesitate to grab a needle and fix it, cracking jokes the whole time to keep me calm. Her camera work is stunning. She captured every real moment and emotion, from the big ones to the quiet details, with colors and light that felt authentic and polished. Amanda has this gift for making you forget the camera is there, and her photos prove it. She helped pin flowers on the guys' boutonnieres and kept the energy light and joyful all day long. We're so grateful to have her photos to remember not just how beautiful everything looked, but how good it all felt.”

Personally, I’ll totally take timeless and authentic over trendy any day. To me, authentic moments always make for more beautiful and personal photographs. Because of this, it’s truly important to me that your wedding pictures say something real about you and who you are as a couple at the beginning, on this day together.

“We had such a great experience with Michael as our wedding photographer. He made planning and communication easy; very responsive and he encouraged us to meet a few times before the wedding. During these meetings we went over the schedule and any updates that should be added and Michael really spent time getting to know us and what we wanted from our pictures. On the wedding day, we felt well prepared for our schedule and confident that he would capture the moments and people that were important for us. Neither of us are comfortable being in front of a camera and both Michael and his second photographer, Devon, helped us have fun and relax. I would absolutely recommend him!”
