  • Serves Rochester, NY

Hullo! So you're gettin' hitched (YaaY!), but you’re not super into the idea of the overly-manicured wedding. A+ for you, because this is not your parents’ wedding photography. I'm a farm kid who floats between the journalism and art worlds. I love telling stories as much as I love listening to the stories of others. I’m the type of person who makes up musicals for my own amusement and nurses a soft spot for sci-fi and fantasy. If I’m not taking photos, I’m usually dancing. Or cooking. It’s possible I may have a baking addiction and try to mitigate the damage by forcing the goods on loved ones.

Celia's laid-back and friendly approach put us at ease from our very first email. On the day of our wedding, she was a calming presence and vibed with all of our guests. The photos she took are stunning and perfectly capture our celebration. We are so grateful to Celia for her artistry and approachability!

I'm SO glad you're here! I'm Abby, a photographer born and raised in the heart of the Finger Lakes (and will never let anyone forget it- proud Keuka girl for life!) currently living in Rochester, NY. I'm a dog-loving, sunflower obsessed, enneagram two, people person. And newly married to the sweetest of sweet husbands.

Awarded Best of Zola
What can I possibly express with words alone about Abby Arnold and her team? Abby is an exceptional human being and professional. She feels simultaneously like an unknowable entity and a long time friend or family member. She makes her clients feel extremely comfortable while also being so well-organized and accommodating. She has excellent artistic direction. I barely had to do anything, and when I look at my photos I feel like I don't know myself. I have never looked so beautiful, I didn't know I could even take pictures like this! She and her team worked overtime to make all my dreams come true, and I will be forever grateful for their hard work and dedication. These photos of my family and friends, who are from all over the country, finally all together in one place, will be cherished for the rest of my life. I would hire Abby and her team a million zillion times over, and I think you should too. Give her the opportunity to read your late night emails with all your pinterest inspiration attached. Allow her to soothe your anxieties about not looking tall enough or not knowing how to pose. Watch in awe as she wrangles your unpredictable family members into one beautiful photo you will value for the rest of your days. She is amazingly talented and a great person to be around in general. I will be forever thankful!

Hi, I'm Jacalyn — the photographer behind Jacalyn Meyvis Photography in Rochester, NY and the Finger Lakes. Photos should be timeless. No trendy wedding filters here. On a day as special as this, you should remember all of the important moments. In a way you'll love both now and in 20 years.

Awarded Best of Zola
I am SO glad I chose Jacalyn to take our wedding photos! As someone much more comfortable behind the camera, I was determined to find someone I could really trust with my very specific vision. 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. It's so timeless and natural, and exactly what I wanted! My husband and I are already talking about booking subsequent photoshoots with her for anniversaries and future events.

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.

My now husband and I cannot stop raving about what a pleasure it was to work with Michael- from our engagement shoot to the big day, he was a true professional while also bringing a calming and positive energy to every shoot. My parents and numerous guests have commented on how friendly he was, putting everyone at ease and capturing memories we will cherish for a lifetime. The photos are exactly what we asked for, and better than we could have wished for. Thank you Michael!!! Mary and Justin

Hey, I'm Kelsey! Thanks for being here! When I'm not behind the lens, you'll probably find me at my favorite sushi restaurant or hanging out at home with my husband & cats drinking a Starbucks Matcha Latte. You'll notice as soon as you meet me that height is something I'm lacking, but I promise that won't stop me from killin' it at your session. I started taking photography when I was a freshman in high school. My high school offered film photography & I immediately fell in love.

I'm Matt at Little Vows Photography, and I specialize in micro weddings and elopements as well natural, organic portraiture. If you are planning a wedding of 50 or fewer people and want an intimate celebration, I may be the right choice for you. When it comes to portraiture, I strive for the session to feel relaxed and low-pressure, like friends hanging out to avoid posed images that feel overly stiff and stilted. I want to communicate well with people to understand the ways they are comfortable showing their love to create the most natural and beautiful images possible.

On top of Matt’s beautiful photos he produced of my engagement, he approached everything with care and thoughtfulness. Very much would recommend.

Use of off-camera lighting, which allows me to add a creative flair when natural light isn't quite enough.
