We had a wonderful experience with Timeless photovideo. They we're very commutive through my whole wedding process and made it seamless. Our photos and our 10 minute video along with our 7-hours of raw footage turned out PERFECTLY. They captured our whole day! Paul our videographer was super awesome, got every angle of our wedding and including drone footage. Only mistake we made was not telling our photographer what photos we wanted of family and ideas we had wanted, so it made the photos unorganized after ceremony, but our photographer Jessica made it quick for us and captured whatever we wanted! We would have wanted our photos in front of our venue but they still turned out beautiful. I would recommend this company, time and time again!!

Hi, I’m Yelitza (Je-lit-sa ... don't worry! I got you). I’m a photographer, wife, nurse, fur-mom of three, new avid hiker, and a pretty darn good baker; and I’m here (dramatic pause) to tell your story. I found photography my freshman year of high school (I needed some credits in a pinch and this was it), three days in class and I was in love. Fast forward a few year (hey! hey! not too many years... Watch it! lol) and I'm still just as in love as that third day.

My fiancé and I have worked with Yelitza twice and both experiences have been fantastic! She has made us both feel extremely comfortable both times and had great communication with us both times. During our first session she photographed us with our 6-month-old puppy who is very energetic she was very patient with him and was able to get great group shots of all of us. Our latest photography session was a rooftop city session and the photos came out absolutely amazing again! I would highly recommend Yelitza!

I’m so glad we went with Sound Originals for our wedding photos! Both photographers and videographer were awesome. Booking was easy and I love their online portal – they asked all the right questions and made sure everyone was on the same page with the vision for the day. We were able to have a planning call to “meet” our lead photographer, Carly, before the wedding day. I really appreciated that so we could go over some details and feel a little bit more comfortable going into the big day (husband and I are not huge picture people). Carly and team were right on time and I can’t say enough good things about how comfortable they made us feel and how hard they worked to make sure we got every shot that we wanted. It rained on our wedding day so there were some pictures I was disappointed about not getting, but Carly got out her phone and was tracking the weather so we could take advantage of every single break in the rain – even if it was only a couple minutes! We ended up getting every picture that I wanted and I’m so grateful! We got our picture gallery back ahead of what was stated in the contract and it’s everything we hoped for. The color is exactly what we chose (we went with the “Timeless” edit. Despite the rain they managed to capture every location on the property and it looks absolutely beautiful. We had an awesome experience, and I highly recommend them. Thank you for being a part of our favorite day!

He had great ideas for poses and was very mindful to get all the pictures we wanted with family members and bridal party.

When I am not behind the camera or editing photos, I enjoy short Uber rides to bottomless brunch on the weekends; right now mimosas and I kinda have a thing going on! I have a special relationship with bourbon and FIRMLY believe in putting food on the grill during late afternoons should be the norm. I am blessed to be married to the happiest person on earth (I am so serious), who just happens to double as my favorite person. She keeps me grounded and never fails to remind me how great she is.

It was great to work with Cesar. From the moment we had our introductory call with him, we were drawn in by his authenticity, humor and laid back energy. We knew he was a good fit for a day that we wanted to keep positive, low-stress, and focused. When it came time for him to give instructions for couple and family shoots, he was confident and cool. In fact, many of our guests went out of their way to share how impressed they were with Cesar. He did a great job capturing our daytime wedding despite the quick change from cloudy and rainy to a bright springtime sun. He struck the perfect balance of positioning himself well to get great shots without being conspicuous or obtrusive. I plan to hire Cesar for other events in the future and recommend that my friends do the same.

Awarded Best of Zola
Nailed Our Wild Woodland Wedding! Eternal Vistas were absolute legends for our wedding out in the sticks. We’re not fancy folks—give us dirt under our boots and a good campfire any day—so we were stoked when they rolled with our vibe like champs. They didn’t blink at our weird ideas, like stringing up mason jar lanterns in the trees or timing the vows for that golden-hour glow. Man, the pics they snagged are unreal—rugged, raw, and full of that heart-pumping, ‘we just got hitched’ energy. They even caught my nephew sneaking s’mores before the ceremony, which still cracks us up. And the way they framed those misty forest shots? Pure magic—like something out of a fairy tale, but with our muddy sneakers in the mix. Bhanu and team turned our chaotic, love-soaked day into memories we’ll be showing off at every barbecue for years. If you want photographers who get the real stuff, these are your people!

My husband I were lucky enough to have Anthony as our photographer with the East Coast Event group. Anthony was with me (the bride) for the morning and he was phenomenal to work with. Very relaxed (at least it seemed haha) and didn't add any stress to the day but gave direction and professional opinion when needed. I have to admit, I didn't have much of a plan when it came to photos but he truly captured everything I wanted and took the best candids that I will cherish forever. He also made a point to ask us several times throughout the night if there was any specific photos that we wanted. Our one wish was to take a lot of staged shots before the ceremony so that we would make it to our cocktail hour and he made that happen, no problem! My husband and I are beyond happy with the photos we received (very quickly after the day) and recommend Anthony to anyone!!

Her professionalism and dedication truly shone throughout the entire event. During the ceremony, she captured all the key moments with an incredible eye for detail, ensuring we have stunning memories to cherish. After the vows and ring exchange, Xiao patiently photographed us with our friends and family, taking her time to ensure everyone looked their best. She even went the extra mile, offering creative suggestions for poses and making us feel comfortable in front of the camera. Right after, she did a solo session with my wife, producing some truly breathtaking photos. What impressed me the most was Xiao’s commitment and quick turnaround. That same evening, she began editing and sent us a preview batch of photos, which allowed us to immediately share them with loved ones.

Hi, I am Ta'Tra. Most call me Tay, I perform all my own stunts, I believe in the magic of creation and I absolutely love my job! I'm a quiet force on your biggest days capturing and enhancing moments as they unfold. I specialize in portraits, lifestyle photography, and weddings!

Awarded Best of Zola
Tay is an absolutely phenomenal photographer, and I feel so blessed and honored that we chose her to capture our wedding. From our very first Zoom call, Tay radiated warmth and approachability. She not only listened but genuinely understood my vision and experience—often more than I did, which made me feel so at ease. She became a safe space in the whirlwind of wedding planning, and that sense of trust and comfort was invaluable as we prepared to capture the most important moments of our lives. I was very particular about the photographic style I wanted for our wedding. It was important to me that the images felt natural—like anyone looking at them could feel as though they were right there with us. I also wanted crisp, high-quality photos, and Tay delivered all of that and more. Our wedding photos are absolutely stunning. On the wedding day, Tay and her team were incredible. Tay was like a shadow in the best way possible—always present but never intrusive. There were times I’d think, “Where is she?” only to realize later that she was exactly where she needed to be, capturing every moment flawlessly. At other times, it felt like she and her team were right in the mix, blending in so seamlessly with our family and friends. They made it so easy for Jeff and me to stay in the moment and be fully present throughout the day. The experience and expertise Tay brought to the table were worth every penny. I’m so grateful my sister recommended her to us, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to any bride who wants to look back on her wedding day and feel nothing but magic. One thing I do wish we had done—and something I highly recommend to any future bride and groom—is taking the engagement photo shoot. We booked Tay about five or six months before our wedding but had already done an engagement shoot with a friend, so we kept putting it off until it never happened. Looking back, I realize how valuable that experience would’ve been. It would’ve helped us prepare better for the family photo sessions and be more conscious of certain poses, like during our first kiss. While our photos are still breathtaking, I believe the engagement shoot would’ve given us that extra edge of confidence and familiarity, which is one of its biggest benefits.

No amount of words can express our gratitude to Lester & Dreisbach Photography and I could spend all day talking about how wonderful they are. They are beyond amazing and such beautiful human beings! We had searched high & low for the perfect fit and they both exceeded our expectations. Our wedding was back in November 2021 and the weather was pretty much all seasons rolled into one day making things extremely difficult and how they made it all work is a miracle! From our first Skype meeting(thanks Covid) they were so warm, friendly, down to earth and such fun, we talked for hours! We literally booked them that day as we didn't want anyone else. The communication was fantastic and their service was like no other, especially during such an uncertain time with Covid. They were flexible and really made us feel special on our day, you can see just how passionate they are about their craft! Their passion is infectious and we had sooooooo much fun having our photos taken by them, the freezing cold wind & jumping over fences were all made worth it. They're both so dedicated and one of our photos always makes me smile knowing that they had thrown my veil up into the air to try and get a great shot and had to run off into the bushes to avoid being in the photo(their dedication and yet care for you is next level!). They also made all our guests feel super at ease when taking photos. Considering how short on time we were and the weather constraints, we got so many amazing photos and we loved that you not only get the "editorial"/artistic shots but also beautiful candid moments captured that you don't even see yourself! From the bottom of our hearts, thank you so much we are forever grateful for having been able to have you apart of our special day!

Golden Eye NYC provided us with flawless service for our wedding. The photo booth was up early, no issues with usage if anyone had a questions, she stepped in & provided a swift and complete answer to all of our wedding guests. There is no one I would hire other than Golden Eye NYC if I can do it all over again.

Hi! I'm Taylor and I’m in the business of finding your moments, the little places where your love is deepest, and capturing them timelessly. If you're looking for vintage-inspired, or documentary/candids based photographs, I'm your girl! I have years of experience with posing/directing, as a model and actor, so if you're nervous about having your photo taken I can gently guide you so we get the perfect shot! I'm happy to be your confidant, your hype girl, and a source of advice if needed. Weddings are incredible, moving and overwhelming all at once, and I aim to offer beautiful memories and the support a bride might need on her journey.

Taylor made my engagement shoot so special. My fiance and I are pretty awkward people and she made it feel like we've known her forever. She went along with our weird ideas, and got a lot of genuine moments from us that really show in her work. If you are shy like us she will definitely bring you out of your shell!!!!! 10/10 recommend!!!!!!!

I love telling stories and capturing imperative moments that will last a lifetime. You only get a few chances at getting good moments at the optimal times to tell stories. That’s my favorite part of photography, getting to tell your story.

Classic Moments Photography is such a professional and awesome vendor to work with. I had the pleasure of working with the team on a wedding this week. Throughout my career as a wedding vendor, I have never seen such an amazing team. They went above and beyond to capture the little moments throughout the wedding! I highly recommend them. I will also be putting them on my preferred vendor list.
