Maria A. Garth Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,800
  • Serves Schenectady, NY

I’m Maria, an experienced wedding photographer specializing in multicultural and Western celebrations. As a child, I developed a passion for the arts and culture that only continued to grow with me. After studying photography in college, I decided to pursue wedding photography and have never looked back. I’ve found this path to be more fulfilling than I ever imagined possible, and have settled into my photojournalistic style over the years. I love photographing moments that unfold spontaneously. If you’re looking to capture your love in a way that feels authentic and creative, I’m here for you.

One of the best decisions my now-husband and I made for our wedding was working with Maria for our photographs. Initially, I loved her photography style from her online galleries, and I liked that she had done a variety of styles and faiths of weddings, including a lot of Indian and multicultural weddings - which applied to us. We had a fantastic engagement shoot, and Maria was happy to walk all over the city with us and carry our things, all while getting to know us, telling stories, and teaching us how to get comfortable in front of the camera and what to do to get beautiful pictures that looked and felt natural, but that we would never have gotten without her guidance. She stayed in touch over the months until the wedding, and helped us figure out scheduling, talked through timing and plans so we could get the most photos in the most relaxed way, and then was there for our event the day before, and the wedding the following day. Every moment was great, she and her team are lovely to work with, and every photograph was truly stunning. We then got an incredible photo album and a flash drive. I would hire Maria again in a heartbeat. We absolutely recommend her!

Carla Ten Eyck Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $4,700
  • Serves Schenectady, NY

Almost 20 years of experience and I still get as excited as I did when I first started photographing events! I got my BFA in photojournalism at Rochester Institute of Technology and my common sense from a well-lived, full life. From intimate weekday elopements to full scale destination events that require a team of photographers, I have done it all. I focus on telling the most full and vibrant story of your event, so you can look back and feel like you didn't missed a thing.

A camera can pick up the visual attraction of a moment, but most times it feels impossible to relive the actual energy of that place in time. Carla - is the absolute key to capturing every ounce of that magical energy. My wedding day was truly the most remarkable day of my life, and every single picture Carla took brings me back to that exact moment in a way I never thought a photo could do. Not only is she a visual genius - but she set the tone for the entire day. Some people in the bridal party who HATE having their picture taken, had so much fun they didn’t even realize they were having a “photo shoot”. Her attention to timing is flawless. Her timeline had every single picture we wanted to get, every friend and family member, every quirky thing I incorporated - and in the most elegant way I could have NEVER imagined. ALSO major plus - her son Jackson is a brilliant videographer. He did our video and their chemistry and vibrant energy was EVERYTHING!!!!! Do yourself a favor - just book her. She’s really busy because she’s so amazing so don’t wait. LOLOLOLOL

Emily Cloutier Photography

  • Photographer

When I shoot photography, it’s not about composing the perfect pictures or getting a great shot. Yes, those things are essential. But, to me, photography is so much more. It’s about capturing a moment in time that you will forever be able to look back on and feel something magical.

Emily was such a pleasure to have be a part of our day! She was very professional through the entire process and made sure she knew exactly what we were looking for and expecting. We received a few teasers within 24 hours after the wedding that we could share with friends and family and received the entire package in a very timely manner! All of the ceremony shots were so intimate, the traditional shots turned out perfect and all of our couple shots were so elegant and very creative! Emily did a great job taking our vision and making it come to life! We will be showing off our wedding photos the rest of our lives and we are so glad we put our trust in Emily to make them everything we dreamed!

Elizabeth Willis Photo 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,000
  • Serves Schenectady, NY

I'm a hybrid film + digital photographer who loves squishing baby cheeks and is terrible at making the bed. I'm a glass-half-full kind of gal who loves naming and caring for my plant babies, creating new cocktail recipes, the color yellow, and twinkle lights. Collaborating with clients to make images that tell your story is what drives my art. I strive to be inclusive, so if you aren't seeing yourself reflected in my portfolio, I aim to change that to make sure others feel seen too. I'm a sucker for weddings that include pieces of family history and love creating images that will be dog-eared and adored for generations to come.

I've worked with Elizabeth Willis Photos as a client and as a professional in the wedding industry. I'm a florist in the wedding industry and Elizabeth shot a wedding we both worked on. I was thrilled with the photos that I got back of my work. Not everyone can capture the beauty of flowers. It sounds funny, but there is a special talent for it, and Elizabeth has it. Not only did she capture the flowers beautifully, but all the soft and quiet moments of the couple as well. Once I saw that, I knew I had to book her for a family session. The session was comfortable and fun. I'm usually pretty awkward in photos, so I was completely prepared to have trouble picking the ones I liked. When the proofs were delivered, there was so many good photos to choose from that I elected to purchase more than what was included in the package. I will forever cherish the photos she took of my family!

My name is Rebecca & I'm your new hype gal!! I absolutely love getting to capture peoples true love every single day. Turning my dream into a reality has been life changing. I started my photography journey so many years ago, I can't even count anymore. Turned my passion into a business in 2022, traveling to many states to capture love stories! When I'm not working... I'm probably hanging with my two dogs. I also have an absolutely amazing family + the best fiance in the world!

Rebecca was both professional and friendly from the start of us working with her. She did our engagement photos, which we loved, and she always made sure we felt comfortable. We cannot express how incredible she did on our wedding day. She rallied both wedding parties and parents together for our most important pictures and went the extra mile to make sure we got the result that we wanted. We would highly recommend Rebecca to anyone looking for a wedding photographer.

Priya and Xquisit Events was the best decision we made for our wedding to deal with planning and day-of coordination.

I simply could not be more thrilled that I booked Alana for my winter wedding! She delivered the exact look I wanted, even though I am not particularly makeup-verse and wasn't great at articulating what I wanted - she just knew. And she did such a gorgeous job on me, my bridesmaids, and my mother, all of whom have different preferences. Not to mention, she was such a pro to work with, especially when scheduling my trial - and RE-scheduling it last minute when I got sick! I am so, so happy I picked Alana to be a part of the day! She kept the energy focused but light on the day and we all felt absolutely amazing. I have never looked better. Thank you, Alana!

As a professional wedding photographer based in South Florida, I specialize in capturing the genuine essence of love. My passion for photography extends beyond the lens, fueled by my love for nature, adventure, and travel. Whether it's capturing love while exploring mountainous terrain, enjoying sunsets, or strolling lakeside, I find inspiration in every moment. Alongside my photography pursuits, I enjoy spending quality time boating, dining, and cherishing moments with my little family. I photograph weddings in Florida, across the US, and Internationally.

We hired Shelby as our wedding photographer and just received our full gallery - wow! We are blown away with the sweet and meaningful moments that she captured. Not only were momentous times photographed, but she made a point to photograph for our family and friends, as well. We can tell that Shelby likes to be behind the lens and capture the moments that feel great to the client, so we’re able to truly relive such a perfect day! There are way too many photos that we’d like to frame / we’re going to have to make a full wedding album! Note: Shelby’s flash work is incredible! Our ceremony was during sunset so all of our cocktail & reception shots are only lit by string lights - if you have a darker venue or a night time wedding, Shelby is your girl!!!!

Super Joy specializes in analog wedding videography, which means we capture your big day on glorious Super 8 film. After an initial chat and some check-ins along the way, I'll show up on your wedding day with my cameras and enough film to capture every tender and goofy moment (and everything in between). I take a fly-on-the-wall approach, which basically means you won't get anything staged from me. Think vintage home movies on a cinematic level.

Finley shot and put together a video for our wedding which was far more beautiful than we could have imagined! He's a super chill individual and is a total pro at what he does. While we were somewhat hesitant about going down the Super 8 route, Finley assured us that we were in good hands and the final results made that abundantly clear. The natural quality of the film really sets it apart from your average wedding video in the most wonderfully nostalgic way. Can't recommend Super Joy enough!

Anywhere near the ocean is where we like to be. I prefer historical places to modern venues, climbing stairs to elevators, and good puns over sounding sophisticated. I love immersing myself into the family traditions. Blending right in as one of the family members on a wedding day is vital to capturing authentic moments. Oh- and I usually make friends with the dog first. There is no destination too far or an idea too crazy—I have hung off the bow of sailboats, woke up at 3 am to film meteor showers and filmed backward on rollercoasters to document couples’ love stories. - #loveislove

I did not not grow up with a camera in my hand knowing I wanted to be a photographer. I started with photography by photographing Punk/Hardcore bands but eventually stopped photographing those shows because I didn't want my camera gear to get broken by someone stagediving. Being apart of that music scene help me cultivate friendships with people all over the world, and gave me lots of travel opportunities. Those experiences carried over into weddings helping me understand real documentary style moments and being comfortable surrounded by new people.

Yaritza was amazing to work with! She was the best we could have asked for. So nice and considerate and just perfect for our wedding!
