Hiring Ashley was easily one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. She’s bubbly, kind, and makes you feel like you’ve been friends forever. The day of our wedding went by so fast, but every single image she captured brings me back in an instant. She not only captured our love story, but captured our friends and family beautifully. Every silly moment, tender exchange and happy tear was published in our gallery — and for that, I am forever grateful.

Swoyer Photography

  • Photographer
  • Serves Schenectady, NY

I love what I do. I found my way to professional photography in a roundabout way, having started my working career as a marine scientist and environmental educator in CA and then on Maui. After years immersed in the ocean and hundreds of hours spent underwater, I realized that I was happiest on days when I could adventure freely with a camera in hand. The drive to learn more and become a better photographer lead me back to school on the east coast, where I ended up finding a new dream career and a home and community that I love.

Laura is great! She really tries to get you know you on a deeper level, when I first reach out she sent a huge questionnaire which I loved! She is so flexible, which was perfect. Our wedding was in Vermont and we are living in Colorado. We were able to coordinate meeting up when we visited in May. We met at a beautiful location and she took soo many more photos than I thought we’d get back! They were all incredible! Her questionnaire for the wedding day was perfect! Fast forward to wedding day, she arrived promptly when we agreed on and got right to work! Guests loved her and she did such an amazing job! We had our first sneak peak picture at 7:30 the next morning! We loved working with Laura!

For the biggest day of your life, you can't look anything less than brilliant. The morning of your wedding, we bring our team to sharpen up the gents. With our straight razor shaves, haircuts & styling, the groom and his party will be shining for the main event and photo shoots. We're great at tying bow ties and we won't forget the bourbon, cigars and music.

We got married at Rosecliff in Newport and booked the Royal Wedding Package with Doorbell Barbers — and from start to finish, the experience was exceptional. I work in finance, so I appreciate when something is organized, high-quality, and delivers — and this did. The custom groomsmen boxes were a great touch, packed with ties, socks, handkerchiefs, cigars, and bourbon, and they set the tone for the day. The massages were a game changer — I didn’t realize how much tension I was carrying until I was on the table, and afterward I felt calm, focused, and genuinely ready to take it all in. The grooming and styling were top-notch; I looked and felt my best, and it absolutely showed in the photos. Every detail was clean, classic, and elevated. Highly recommend Doorbell Barbers if you want a luxury experience for you and your groomsmen that’s seamless, thoughtful, and stress-free — one of the best decisions we made.

By the luck of the draw, Nathan was available for our very quickly planned wedding--we snagged the last date he had in June 2024. I was ecstatic because I had always admired his work. My now husband and I had a blast working with him, we never thought taking photos/videos would be one of the highlights of our big day but it really was. The whole family loved working with Nathan, too. He was laid back but nothing short of a true professional--he was somehow everywhere, capturing everything yet never in the way. He went with the flow with funny family eccentricities that popped up and made everyone feel comfortable. Our photos and video got back to us in shockingly record time and we can't choose favorites because we love them all. Multiple people we've shared photos have said, "that looks straight out of Vogue or a magazine." If you're lucky enough to have the opportunity to work with Nathan in any capacity, whether it be a wedding or other shoot, do not pass this amazing artist up.

I booked Justine for our wedding in September to do hair and makeup on myself and both of our moms. Everyone’s hair & makeup came out beautifully & stayed soo well throughout the day and night. I had a partial updo with curls that were intact the whole time!! We loved the enhanced natural looks Justine gave us as none of us wear makeup that often. Justine’s calming presence was so nice and eased all of our jitters. Everyone kept saying how relaxing and peaceful the whole experience was getting ready. She was very accommodating for my mom as she is in a wheelchair and sewed my mom’s dress. Since starting to speak with her to book she was punctual, professional & kind. She eased my anxious mind when I was worried about my hair being too short when all curled. If I could do it all again I’d re-book her every time! Can’t thank her enough and make any higher recommendations for future brides to book Justine for their weddings!!

We like to think that our mission goes beyond just documenting your wedding day -- the goal is to create an unforgettable experience! We are invested in making each video as genuine as possible, as if your story was being told by a best friend who witnessed all the important stuff. Tell us who you are as a couple and let us put together a video that tells the story from day one to I do!

Treefilms is a stellar photography and videography company! After our venue, they were the second vendor we booked as photography and videography was very important to us. Ashley was responsive and kind from the beginning! She was open to our ideas in regard to location and then made it look even better in the photo video! We felt so comfortable during that shoot and at our wedding in front of the camera with them. They gave us enough direction that it was easy to know what to do, but did not result in stiff or overly posed pictures. The candid shots that they captured throughout the wedding day are photos we will cherish; they were able to capture all the emotions so perfectly. The team worked seamlessly with all the other vendors, they truly know what they’re doing! (Shoutout to Ashley for doing up the buttons on my dress!) Our wedding video is a work of art, I don’t think it’s comparable to the standard videos produced by other vendors. Treefilms is the vendor we recommend most to friends and family, and we look forward to working with them again in the future!

Hi! It's so nice to meet you! I'm a Pennsylvania, New Jersey and New York Photographer from Scranton, Pa. I began my journey as a wedding musician, playing in countless bands in Pennsylvania.

Annie is an absolute dream to work with! I never thought I would have a DIY wedding, but here we were-and Annie made it all come together perfectly. From the moment we hired her to the final moments of our wedding day, she was organized, thoughtful, and incredibly calm under pressure. Every detail was executed flawlessly, and her ability to bring our vision to life exceeded all of our expectations. On the wedding day, Annie and her assistant, Marina, ensured everything ran seamlessly. Their attention to detail, professionalism, and genuine care made the entire experience feel effortless. We truly could not have done this without them! If you’re looking for a wedding planner who will go above and beyond to make your day magical, Annie is the one. We are forever grateful for her dedication and expertise in making our wedding so special. Highly, highly recommend! Mr. & Mrs. Decker

This is delightfully different elopement + wedding photography! From helicopter elopements and lakeside wedding bashes to hiking engagements to weddings with bouncy houses, I capture the adventurous, quirky, and unique. Based in both New York + California, with travel worldwide, I've photographed couples on 6 continents. My creative, fun, & candid photography uses innovative techniques and unique ideas to get photos that make you look twice. Whether you're saying vows in your backyard or having a 3-day adventure wedding in the rainforest, I'll catch every spontaneous moment of joy and laughter—and plan a few unique shots on top of it all.

We worked with Kathryn for our October 2024 Hindu/Jewish blended wedding and were so happy with our decision!! We spoke with MANY photographers during the planning process trying to decide who fit our style and personality leading up to our wedding. Neither of us feel super comfortable in front of the camera so it was important to us that we found someone who truly fit us and what we were looking for. Kathryn's warmth, adventurous spirit, and genuine curiosity about us as a couple really stood out, and we immediately knew she was who we wanted to work with. We had a large wedding with many Hindu/Jewish traditions making the day busy & hectic, but Kathryn's professionalism and calm attitude made us feel at ease. We really appreciated how on top of it she was, sticking to our timeline and facilitating our rather large (and rowdy!) group, all while making the staged photos seamless and the candids from the reception/baraat so special and a true representation our special day. The colors are just magnificent, and we had many guests compliment her work, fun nature, and professionalism throughout the night. Thank you Kathryn for making our day so wonderful!!

Hiring New Pace was hands down the best decision we made for our wedding day! From our initial consultation to receiving our final photos, the entire experience was flawless. Grace & Rachel both have an incredible eye for detail and captured every precious moment with such artistry and skill. On the day of our wedding, Grace & Rachel were professional, friendly, and made us feel completely at ease. One thing that truly impressed us was how they both managed to quickly organize and execute our posed pictures without making anyone feel rushed. They had a knack for keeping everyone relaxed and natural, which really shows in the photos. They seamlessly blended into the background, yet managed to capture every emotion, every smile, and every special moment without us even realizing they were there. The quality of the photos is absolutely stunning - each shot is beautifully composed and perfectly edited. We are beyond thrilled with the results and cannot stop looking through our wedding album! Thank you so much, Grace & Rachel, for not only capturing our day so perfectly but also for being such a pleasure to work with. We will cherish these photos for a lifetime. We highly recommend New Pace to anyone looking for a talented and dedicated photographer who truly cares about their clients and their craft. Haydn & Anna Vance

Brent is considered one of the top wedding cinematographers based out of the Northeastern USA. He frequently travels the globe, documenting weddings for couples who deserve the best of the best. After growing up in Central Jersey, Brent chose to move down to Nashville for college and then shortly after graduation, officially founded 550Park out of New York City. He is a passionate tennis player, chef, and world adventurer.

I made the best decision on behalf of my clients by hiring 550Park as their wedding filmmaker. I was planning the wedding for my clients in New York City and Brent of 550Park was extremely very courteous, attentive, and professional towards myself and the bride. As a wedding planner, I have a longer list of videographers I wouldn't recommend than ones I would use again. However, I would and I will book Brent with 550Park again anytime! I always tell my brides that besides their wedding planner and photographer, their videographer will be the one in their face all day long. Hence, it matters how they make you feel and communicate with you. Brent made my clients feel comfortable and happy throughout the day. He was able to capture beautiful moments of my clients who are usually not comfortable in front of the camera, and made them feel so comfortable and 'confident in their skin'. 550Park truly did an amazing job!

Lynette and Bryndon are the best around! I used them for both my photo and video, and they give you nothing but perfection! Everything came out better than I expected. They arrived on time if not early. They were very respectful in the church. They learned my entire bridal party’s names so instead of saying “you” and pointing, they said their actual names. They were very encouraging to my husband and I throughout the day, and very helpful with anything we needed. They also were very helpful before the wedding day. Lynette helped me figure out timing for the day, and that truly helped it run smoothly and on time. They gave us a large “sneak peak” within two weeks of the wedding, and then had the entire wedding album back around 3 months. The videos came back about a month and a half after the wedding. They shot my cousins wedding back in 2021, and my friends wedding in 2023 so by my wedding they truly felt like the are apart of my family. I highly recommend pioneer media for your photography and videography needs!!
