Bliss Photos is a Pennsylvania based Wedding Photographer servicing weddings in PA, MD, DC, NYC, and beyond! Bliss Photos is an inclusive wedding photographer that creates romantic & timeless photos with a journalistic approach. As a wedding photographer for 10+ years, my favorite photo to capture is when a couple is completely in their own world and not even aware of the camera. I strive for that photo EVERY time. Those photos are once in a lifetime photos and that's exactly what I'm all about - capturing the real you in that special moment. That is a gift that you will cherish for a lifetime and lifetimes after that.

Melissa was such a pleasure to work with! She is friendly, helpful and has a vision. She took the most beautiful elopement photos for us and just photographed our bigger wedding. She is great at getting candid and more artsy shots while still getting the classic portraits you want from a wedding. Could not recommend her enough!

K. Engel Photography

Born and raised in Maine, I dream of one day retiring there by the sea, like a real life Miss Rumphius. But until then, I live just outside of Boston with my husband and our three cats. I'm married to my high school sweetheart, but we waited more than a decade before saying our own vows. Sometimes (okay, often) I eat cake for breakfast, so you can always count on me to help taste test yours. If I'm not photographing people in love, I'm probably enjoying a glass (bottle) of champagne on the couch or planning my next adventure. I believe everything is better by the ocean and you should never wait to explore the world.

Kendra was such a comfort to my husband and I during the entirety of our wedding planning process, thru our wedding and beyond. She was always available for communication and never once made us feel like we were asking too much or being bothersome. Kendras energy is amazing, especially for two people that do not consider themselves photogenic! She brought out the best in us and it reflects in our engagement and wedding day photos. I couldn’t recommend her enough!

Our style is artistic and documentary, and can be described in three words; Sincere, Scenic, and Inspirational. Sincere, we will never ask you to act unnaturally in front of our camera; we will adjust to your personalities and photograph you as you are. Scenic, because we love beautiful landscapes and love to incorporate everyone in such environments. Inspirational, because there is always a new way or a new idea to capture a photo but in the end it's capturing that special moment.

Sam did an incredible job capturing our wedding photos! Their creativity and attention to detail made every moment feel special. Sam had a fantastic ability to make us feel comfortable and relaxed, resulting in natural, candid shots that truly reflected our love. The composition and lighting were perfect, and every photo felt like a work of art. We couldn’t be happier with the experience and the stunning memories Sam created for us!

Hi there! I’m Daniel Martinez, and I’m thrilled to connect with you! My passion for photography ignited at just 14 years old, and I’ve been dedicated to this creative journey ever since. With a decade of experience in wedding photography, I’ve had the joy of working with fantastic publications like ESPN, PDN, and The New York Times. I focus on a documentary style, capturing genuine, candid moments that tell your unique story. My goal is to create a relaxed atmosphere, allowing you to fully enjoy your special day while I document the heartfelt connections between you and your loved ones. I’d love to chat!

We hired Danny to take our engagement photos and we couldn't be any happier with how they turned out. Danny's eye is unmatched. We took the pictures on Danny's referral at beautiful Rockland Lake State Park around sunset. His knowledge & usage of natural lighting was truly impressive. Danny's communication throughout the shoot was flawless; he knew what to say and how to say it to catch the most amazing photos. We're beyond excited to have him shoot our wedding next September in Lake Placid, NY!

Coral was amazing to work with! We had the pleasure of getting to know her when we booked her last-minute to take some photos of my good friends' small backyard ceremony in 2018. When my husband and I later got engaged, we knew we had to book Coral to capture our own planned festivities for June 2020. When 2020 rolled around and it became apparent that we had to scrap most of our original plans, we couldn't have asked for a better partner than Coral. Her flexibility and encouragement during what was a crazy time for everyone kept us sane. We unfortunately nixed all of our other vendors with the changes we made, but kept Coral because we knew we wanted her there to capture whatever our day turned out to be. Coral captured beautiful photos of our two(!) wedding/reception dates and we are so glad to have those treasured photos. She's incredibly easy to work with and made everyone feel so comfortable, especially as my family and I don't get in front of the camera very often. We can't recommend Coral enough!

Before we even met, Ryan and Tatiana had 10 years experience as wedding photographers, and Ryan had been named one of the Top 10 Wedding Photographers in the World by the two top industry magazines, American Photo and Rangefinder. We didn't mean to fall in love with the person whose style and experience fit most neatly with each others', but it happened. Now we manage our business and creative passion with our other passion … parenting our Tasmanian Devil of a toddler, Gavin, in our happy place of Cobble Hill, Brooklyn.

Ryan and Tatiana are amazing photographers. They are geniuses at capturing candid moments and taking action shots along with posed photos. My husband and I don’t feel like natural models behind the camera, but they provided coaching during our engagement photo shoot. We knew that there would be plenty of great photos of the two of us on our special day and we asked that they focus on getting great shots of as many of the guests as they could. They totally delivered! And despite managing to take snaps of over 100 guests, no one really noticed that they were there. It was like they were photography ninjas. They really managed to capture the joy and the fun of the day. We will cherish these photos for the rest of our lives. Thank you to Ryan and Tatiana for everything!

That is how we would describe Jamaal's work! From the first consultation, he was very flexible and responsive to putting together a package that fit our needs. His sense of professionalism, yet amicable personality made it very comfortable to work with Jamaal. While taking the pics, he allowed us to just be ourselves, catching many candid shots so the photoshoot felt natural. He made us feel very comfortable throughout all the shoots we did. His finished products are stunning, not to mention he turns it around super fast!! From the 1st consultation all the way to the wedding day, he was always quick to respond and punctual to everything (true story: he showed up like 3hrs before so he could scope spots for our engagement shoot). We will surely use Visuals by J. McKenzie for any other future photography needs!! Thanks Jamaal!!!

My studio represents six award winning principal photographers each with an amazing editorial and photojournalistic eye. They've been shooting with me from 6 to 14 years and are exceptional experts in their fields. That's why I choose them, trained them and that's why they stick with the studio.

We were thrilled with Brian Dorsey Studios as our wedding photographer! Kang was so calm and organized in his communication leading up to our big day, which helped ease any stress. He directed us in such an easy, carefree way during portraits, while still working efficiently to capture all the moments we wanted. Kang and his team were incredible to work with - he is so nice and easygoing, which makes all the chaos and stress of a wedding simply melt away! Their work is very professional with a natural style that resulted in incredible photos we will treasure forever. We felt they offered tremendous value for the quality of their work and service.

I'm Alex. I spend my free time with my husband and our dogs Conor & Belle. I'm lucky to live in the Hudson Valley surrounded by amazing nature and upstate lifestyle. Art is something that I fell in love with at a young age and has always carried me through life- it lead me to photography. The mixture of art and emotion is one of the things I love most about wedding photography. When you look through your collection of photos I want you to feel and see the emotion, love and fun you had on your best day ever.

Alex is simply the best. We had such a good time with her. She took care of everything and the process was entirely stress free. And her photos came out so so beautiful!

Oklahoma raised, Princeton educated, and founder of Portrait of a Young Couple, documenting how couples of all backgrounds and identities across the world live and love. I'd love to be a part of helping to capture you and your partner's love.

I met Vincent last year as he was a photographer at a wedding and I was the videographer. We instantly connected as he is the kindest, and most genuine person. He is filled with so much joy and happiness, and he truly made the day wonderful just with his presence. His business, Portrait of a Young Couple is truly inspiring and it tells you how great Vincent is as he captures these weddings free of charge in return for your story. I learned all about his business the day I worked with him, and he is so passionate and truly loves what he does. After the wedding, I was able to see the photos that Vincent took, and not only was he great to work with but his photos are amazing too. We do live in different states, but I hope someday our paths cross again and that I work with him again as he makes working in the wedding industry better.

Thank you for taking an interest in my work and considering me to be your Wedding Photographer! I'm technically based in Brooklyn, NY but have the unique situation of growing up in Maine. I then spent a decade in New Orleans where I first began my photography journey and moved up to NYC to further pursue it. I'm fortunate enough to have several places to call home and while I work a great deal in the New England & the tri-state area, I'm proud to announce that I've accepted work at an international level this year. Traveling is one of my other great passions, along with music, so it's a perfect fit.

A simple search on the wedding app led us to Karl, so we started with some engagement photos. He immediately won us over with his vibe, skill and ability to make awkward photoshoots (for me) relaxing and fun! Fast forward to our wedding, Karl continued to impress. I sent him a few inspo photos focusing on editorial-style shots and boy did he deliver! He was excellent at directing poses (BIG plus) as well as capturing those precious candids. He even flexed some drone footage and went above and beyond with a surprise reel! In addition, it's important to remember that you spend most of your wedding day with your photographer, so make sure you like them! Karl was a calm, welcoming energy all day, we even shared some laughs and inside jokes. He truly became a friend to us and our wedding party! We are so happy with our photos and this hire, we would highly recommend Karl to anyone looking for a wedding photographer.

With 16 years of experience photographing weddings, my approach is simple, capture the day as it happens. I'm all about telling your story, the real version. I am not intrusive and like to blend in. I want your experience to be memorable. The way I do this is to work closely with you to understand your wedding and your story to be sure I reflect you as a couple on camera. I approach each wedding with fresh eyes, as every couple are unique and no generic approach can ever be applied. I love my clients. They are easy going, up for an adventure, they love my work and just want their photographs to reflect their day in its truest form.

i consider myself too much of a hopeless romantic and a laid-back photographer to bring the best in you! i’ve been told that nurture is my superpower, and documenting love stories is my outlet. over the years i’ve learned that when it comes to being creative, art it’s what makes me feel alive, that's why my approach to photography is to have an "as-personal-as-possible" experience with my couples by valuing authenticity and connection. to make the whole process feel light and easy! your life’s best moments and stages deserve to be documented in a way that tells YOUR story.

Juan goes above and beyond with his work. From the moment he interacts with his clients he has this genuine connection to him. He takes the time to be personal and truly understands his clients needs. He over delivers with his stunning work. Making sure each gallery is hand crafted to perfection for each couple.

I work with Ari often (I'm a floral designer) and she's one of the few photographers that I will basically drop everything to work on a shoot, project or a wedding for. She has such a professional eye – great at framing her couples, a timeless style, and the moments look candid and natural yet elegant and polished at the same time. And she's down-to-earth and easy to work with! A lot of the photos highlighting my floral work come from Ari and they are the ones I use over and over. I love her work that much!!

By blending creativity with your unique journey, I aim to create candid, elegant images that reflect genuine emotion and preserve the spirit of your day for years to come.

From the moment she arrived, her warm and professional demeanor put us at ease, allowing us to focus on enjoying our day. Her attention to detail was exceptional. She captured every significant moment, from the subtle glances to the big celebrations, with an artistic eye that truly showcased the emotions and beauty of our wedding. Each photo reflects not just an image but a cherished memory. What stood out the most was her attentiveness to our needs. Throughout the entire day, she was there, ensuring we were comfortable and happy with every shot. She seamlessly blended into the background during intimate moments, yet was right there when we needed her for posed pictures. Her ability to adapt and respond to the day's events, while maintaining a calm and cheerful presence, was remarkable. Magalie went above and beyond to make sure our vision for the day was realized.

You know those first few months that you fall in love & everything is so wonderful & terrifying & just so damn GOOD? It's that “new love” feeling & I’ve never been able to replicate that feeling with anything else, except photography. Your wedding day tells the story of your love. From that “new love” to the more comfortable kind, it is the culmination of all those moments leading up to “I do.” I consider myself the narrator of that day, telling that story and documenting your connection through my photographs.

Jenny is an absolutely wonderful person and amazing photographer. So kind, friendly, organized and talented. She is a pleasure to work with always. She listens to your needs, guides you through the process, and delivers work that showcases all of the love and fun of your day.

Jess Spoll Review We cannot recommend Jess enough. She’s an absolute treasure of a human being who is now one of our good friends, in addition to being a magnificently talented photographer. Her documentary-esque style paired with her stark contrast and beautiful, earthy colors make her work some of the most visually stunning images we have ever had the pleasure of laying our eyes on. If you’re getting married, we would absolutely, 1000% recommend Jess Spoll. Sure, you could hire some other wedding photographer that captures all the smiles and sunshine and happiness that your day brings, and you’d be satisfied. However, if you want to relive your wedding day in all its beautiful, loving glory, hire Jess Spoll. She has this way of telling a story through her images in a way that communicates a sense of ease, sincerity, and above all else, warmth. She snapped moments that we didn’t even think would be moments worth capturing, and yet managed to make those particular pictures some of our favorites from our wedding day. We want to take her with us everywhere we go and have her document our lives-. Jess was extremely easy to work with. I am usually a pretty shy person in front of the camera, so for her to get me to naturally come out of my shell was nothing short of amazing. Working with Jess literally made us want to get more pictures done despite having already gotten married. We highly recommend her and cannot speak highly enough about her style, professionalism, and dedication.

Rebecca has been working as a professional photographer for over 10 years. She began with a small film camera, taking photos at her favorite concerts. As she grew, so did her unique style and her passion. She attended the Academy of Art in San Francisco, Ca. and obtained a BA in Advertising Photography. Over the past 10 years she has had the opportunity to photograph events in places such as Portland, Or., San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Monterey, Ca., Washington DC, Florida and now New York City. She frequently travels for her photography and loves every moment.

My wife and I used Rebecca for both our engagement and wedding photos because of how easy to work with and enjoyable the photo shoots were. Not to mention how gorgeous all her work turns out! We’re both camera shy people but this was the most pain-free and happy experience I’ve ever had in front of a camera. Rebecca is great with making sure her client’s needs are met but is also good at going with the flow and making the environment/setting work for her. If I have any other life events that need to be photographed, I know who my only call would be!

The quality of their work was truly exceptional - the photos they captured were creative, beautiful, and of the highest caliber. They were low-key and easy to work with on the day, and the resulting pictures were spectacular. We even added video at the last minute, which ended up being one of the best decisions we made.

I’m a full-time wedding photographer currently based in Central Connecticut. I love traveling, Thai food, all dogs, almost every type of music, and pretty much anything related to astronomy. Talking about myself has always been a little weird for me because I love hearing about you. My couples become my friends instantly, no really – as soon as we have our first chat together it’s DONE. BFFs for life. Be prepared for creating secret handshakes, inside jokes, and a ton of memories together!

Kelsey was a dream to work with - like having a friend with you on your wedding day. It's clear her goal is to please her clients - I did not feel nickel and dimed whatsoever. In fact I felt the opposite - she showed up early to all our events with a smile and true excitement. She took creative direction with ease and appreciation and is just so talented. Don't hesitate to book with her, you'll be so glad you did.

From my first moment as a wedding photographer, I knew I wanted to kick tradition to the curb. I was tried of seeing wedding photography that excluded the communities that I hold closest. I work hard to form a real connection with each of my clients to craft an experience that captures their unique spirit.

Ashley is so perceptive and talented! I told her a little bit about us and our style and she created the right balance between moodiness and fun that we wanted. She always got back to us just under 24 hours and answered every question that we had. She is dedicated to her clients and their needs. I enjoyed being in her company because she made us feel comfortable. She understood our needs and never pressured us to do anything out of our comfort zone. We are a more laid back, care-free couple, so we gave Ashley lots of space to experiment and it definitely paid off. If nothing else has convinced you, we have already booked our 1 year anniversary photos with her and I will continue to go back to her for any event that should be photographed.

We (Melissa & Michael) became wedding photographers because we truly believe we have something different to bring to the table. Our goals are simple: to help you relive each moment of your wedding day every time you look at your images, make you feel comfortable in front of the camera, and blend into the crowd like we're your guests. We pride ourselves on open & honest communication with our couples, a seamless booking-through-wedding-day process, super speedy photo delivery, and lending a helping hand in any way we can.

This review is long overdue and well deserved. If you only have time to read one more sentence: Hire Melissa and be confident that you will get the photos and vision you want on your special day! We partnered with Melissa at Sava Studio for our wedding this past September and she shot, composed and edited our engagement photos as well. Melissa as a vendor is responsive, friendly, knowledgeable, creative and gregarious. She was always open and transparent with us, patient listening to what we thought we wanted and our vision and was always available to offer feedback as we requested. She walked us through the entire wedding process with respect to the photography aspect and she also offered assistance as we needed in related areas as we got closer to our wedding date. Our first interaction with her was our engagement photo shoot and Melissa made my partner and I feel comfortable while she was shooting and she was very flexible in the shots we wanted to take and what we wanted to see. Very importantly for me, Melissa has a great eye for a memorable photo! Getting to see the raw photos as well as the edited ones Melissa showed us her talent and professionalism. We shot in bright sunlight, shade and darker areas and Melissa was able to handle it all. Our wedding was a few months later at our parents house and the area that the ceremony took place in was unique in that there were a lot of trees/shadows/light patterns to manage. Melissa handled it all! She and her partner used every trick in the book to get the best photos of my wife and I and were able to take some classic natural/unposed shots of us. It speaks to her professionalism and vision that she knew where to be and when to get the best shots! Post-wedding, Melissa had us a sizable preview to review almost 24 hours after the wedding so she could collect feedback before sending us our final photo collection. Once sent, Melissa/Sava made it very easy for us to share photos with family and friends and access them in the future for when we wanted to reminisce. We can't thank Melissa enough and we recommend Melissa at Sava for all of your photography needs!

Growing up, I wanted to be a writer. I never imagined I would use photography to help tell stories. You and your partner are already writing the story of your love. I have the honor to help tell that story through photography. We are here to celebrate the story of who you were, who you are, and who you are becoming in every shape, size, skin complexion, religion, ability, and orientation.

We used T Z Wilson Photography for our engagement photos and our full wedding day and he did not disappoint! Ty communicated with us promptly when asking questions or talking about the process of how each day would go. He is very skilled in making a wedding day run smoothly with photos and creating a timeline. He made us feel comfortable and in return created some amazing photos capturing our personalities and relationship perfectly. Unlike some photographers that do the same things over and over or using the same types of scenes he will bring you to new places, beautiful spots and create "poses" that fit you as a couple and the style of your wedding day. If you're the adventurous type he is your guy too! We snuck of to beautiful fields and landscapes near sunset and they are some of my most favorite photos. The results and finished photos were nothing short of a dream and I am so thankful we had him for our wedding day!

With nearly two decades of experience capturing weddings, I've honed my craft into an art form. As a lifelong New Yorker, the city is my canvas. I’m not just a photographer; I’m your insider, offering expert recommendations to make your special day truly unforgettable. My passion for preserving love stories is the driving force behind every image I create.

Susan Shek makes magic happen for her couples. She creates photographs that reflect both the personal joys of an engagement and wedding, but also the beauty of seasons, spaces, cityscapes and nature. Her eye for composition is matched by her desire to do the best job in service to her clients. Her images of my wedding are stunning, and whenever I look back at my wedding album with my wife and family or friends, we always stop to talk about Susan. She provided us with a perfect record of the day, and her photos will be in the family forever. She and her crew were consummate professionals. They helped us plan our shoots and found some awesome locations for outdoor shots around Manhattan. We highly recommend her! If you’re considering booking her, just do it! You will thank me later.

I've always bought a strong work ethic to anything I do (thanks Dad), if I am chosen to be your wedding photographer you will get my full attention and devotion to produce the most beautiful and complete coverage of your wedding that 20 years of experience can deliver. I work hard and stay incredibly focused because I know that every moment cannot be repeated. I love what I do and it shows in the work.

Craig is hands down the best of the best! We couldn't have asked for a better photographer to capture our wedding day (and engagement shoot) and we are thrilled with the incredible shots he took. He is extremely professional, fun and easy to work with and really makes you feel comfortable in front of the camera. If you're looking for a photographer for your wedding or any other special event, Craig is the one!

Héctor Javier Foto

  • Photojournalistic style

  • Serves Rockaway Beach, NY

I'm just an 80's born, 90's raised millennial photographer who wants to shoot passionate couples and have his avocado toast too. My approach to photography is journalistic, directed not posed. My approach to a wedding day is calm, attentive, easy-going, non-intrusive without being awkwardly shy, and always with a smile.

While I'm not a client of Hector's, I am a fellow wedding vendor (videographer) and there is no photographer I prefer working with over Hector. His energy is calming and easy-going, but he always makes sure we BOTH get what we need. Instead of fighting against each other to get our shots, we work so well together it actually enhances our footage. He's organized, straight-forward and attentive. Plus, he travels all over! 10/10 would recommend :)

Relive the moments as you experienced them. When it comes to your wedding, what are you most excited about? The ceremony? Dancing the night away with family and friends? Indulging in the emotion of the day? The photos are important so you can relive each memorable moment. But the moments are only memorable if you take the time to experience them in the first place. This way, you'll not only experience the moments of your wedding day - you'll remember them well. Who better to photograph your experiences than a husband and wife team who understands the importance of this day. And the moments that shape it.

Where do we even begin with Ishan and Preeti of Ishan Fotografi?! Our experience with them was nothing short of amazing. My husband and I (and all of our guests!) would highly recommend Ishan Fotografi to any couple looking for talented, thoughtful, creative, adventurous, understanding, professional, responsive and downright fun photographers! I first got introduced to Ishan & Preeti a year before my wedding at another wedding they were shooting. I really liked their vibe/personality while working with the couple - they were really thoughtful in their approach and shots they took, had great ideas/visions and were really great at demonstrating poses for the couple because they're a couple themselves! I immediately reached out to them the next day to get to know them a bit more. Ishan and Preeti were very communicative from the beginning - answering any of our questions via email, text or phone call; inviting us to their place to see their work; asking us how the wedding planning was going; etc. We got along with them instantaneously and knew we didn't want to book anyone else. Not only were Ishan & Preeti great photographers, but also GREAT company! We loved every minute of our engagement shoot with them. It can get a little awkward taking photos in public, but Ishan and Preeti made it super fun and relaxed. That kind of energy and vibe cascaded throughout the wedding weekend. We were so appreciative of this, especially because they knew how to help us navigate stressful situations as they arose throughout the weekend and made sure our photos still came out great! They also took the time to walk around our venue and scope out the best places to take the different types of photos we wanted. We received our photos very quickly after the wedding. There are so many amazing shots we are having a hard time picking our favorites!! Definitely a good problem to have :) If we ever are in need of photographers again, we know exactly know who we'll be calling!
