Tati And Roman

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $6,000
  • Serves St. James, NY

We are a married couple of photographers. Within years of career, we discovered what’s really matters - we want to make people happy. Weddings have it all: new interesting people, touching stories, warm family relationships, tears. A lot of tears! Oh, don’t forget dances and sparklers! So, it’s fun! 🙂 Also, we love weddings because it’s the most challenging kind of photography in the field, it combines all the genres. It make you think, move and react quickly in constantly changing surrounding. We have no room for mistakes. So It’s never boring! 🙂

Awarded Best of Zola
We absolutely loved working with Tati and Roman!! We knew that we wanted to work with them immediately after our first conversation with Tati. Having two photographers was a key differentiator for us because we knew that it would allow us to capture all of the important moments from our wedding day. Tati and Roman are both so genuinely warm, kind, and very easy to work with. They were quick to respond to all of our questions leading up to our wedding and also helped us organize our day-of-timeline in a way that allowed us to get all of the photos that we wanted while also providing us with plenty of time to be present and have fun with friends and family. Tati and Roman made us and all of our friends and family feel comfortable when taking photos and provided guidance when needed to ensure that we got the perfect shots. We were blown away when we got our wedding photos and are so happy with how they turned out! Tati and Roman captured all of the beautiful and authentic moments from that night and you can feel the love that was in the room. We cannot thank Tati and Roman enough and are so happy that we were able to work with them.

From the moment we booked Shelby Phillips Photography, the communication was excellent, easy, and seamless. Shelby and her team have an incredibly creative and artistic eye, capturing all the special candid moments of our wedding day(s). Shelby shot both of our weddings, a Covid city hall wedding and our post pandemic wedding. We also have recommended her for our family's engagements and weddings, and we all couldn't be happier with the results of everything she has done. I would hire her to photograph anything, at any time, because I know that no matter what, the results will be stunning. Even if it was just a picture of a garbage can, I promise you that garbage would look high key incredible. Shelby has a way of making even the most camera-shy people feel completely comfortable in front of the lens.

Awarded Best of Zola
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.

The photos came out exactly as we wanted, and the video was even longer than we expected. Their concierge did our timeline and assisted with a lot of arrangements, providing advice that even our planner didn't give. Overall, this is a great company that I highly recommend using.

Awarded Best of Zola
Louis Pettinelli Entertainment was an absolute dream to work with. I thought that a live band for our wedding would be out of our reach, but LPE was so easy to work with and what an incredible value! Our band, LPE Snapshot was incredible and our ceremony musicians were amazing too! The vocalists were high energy and kept the whole event moving. They were great Emcess and they even added some special non-traditional reception activities for us. They were super flexible and played all the songs we asked for- even some very “niche” tracks we asked for during the ceremony. So many of my guests said the band was their favorite part of the reception. I highly recommend LPE entertainment! (I am also a musician myself so I’m very picky!)

Lindsay and Nathan are an incredible team. From booking them two years ago, doing our engagement session, and now having gotten sneak peaks back from our wedding that was just 2 days ago, I’m completely blown away by how incredible they have been! Lindsay is a complete pro. Group photos flew by because she was so great at directing and wrangling everyone. I had multiple people comment on how she was EVERYWHERE non-stop at our wedding, doing an amazing job the whole time! I just know she got every picture I wanted and more, and with how gorgeous our sneak peaks turned out I know I’ll absolutely love them! She and Nathan were so on top of everything, and made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera. Not only that, she truly went above and beyond helping to safety pin a rip in my dress.

Awarded Best of Zola
Felisha is one of the most kind, thoughtful, and insightful photographers who you could possibly hope to work with on your big day. In our first phone call with Felisha, it was clear that she was looking for a connection with her potential clients; she wasn’t trying to sell us her portfolio, and she wasn’t trying to gauge our budget. If you’re looking for a storyteller and someone who wants to build a meaningful connection with their clients, look no further! We wanted a partner in our photographer, someone who could look beyond the standard wedding portraits and find those special, candid moments that we would be missing among all the distractions of the day – and Felisha delivered. From start to finish, we felt like Felisha had our backs and was looking out for our best interests. She listened to us and gave us whatever it was needed on our big day at that moment – whether it was relief from the stresses of the wedding day timeline or a break from the business of our reception. When it came time to review the gallery, we were blown away by the details she captured. It was incredibly special not only to see the beauty captured in the moments, but the feeling we got in our hearts as we relived our wedding weekend. It’s a feeling we hope to hold on to for as long as we can, and Felisha truly helped to make our vision a reality!

Hey there! I'm Meghan, the founder of HairstylesCo! Want to know a little about how it all started? As a kid growing up in the 90s, barbies, Polly pocket, basically any doll that allowed you to customize the hairstyle…you name it, I had it. Picture this tiny girl holding a barbie styling head, running as fast as her 7 year old nugget legs would carry her. All to show her mom the “twist braid” hairstyle she spent hours “creating”. Guess you could say I knew my path all along…Fast forward to hair school, 15 years ago. First day-I knew I was in the right place! Now to describe my style-I'd rather give you a visual.

Meghan is insanely talented and worked magic putting together such intricate hair style that lasted the whole day. All the adjustments we made during the trial were incorporated in the final hair which held up the entire reception! I truly had my dream hair for my wedding. I'm just speechless that she can recreate hair styles from just a photo! Bonus was having her do my hair for the rehearsal! It was totally different from my wedding hair, which shows how versatile she is! Also, I absolutely adore Meghan as a person! She was the perfect calm, peaceful energy I needed on my wedding day.

Awarded Best of Zola
Lucas knows his stuff but also makes a point to know your stuff just as well. He sees the big picture of your wedding day and is beyond generous with his knowledge. I couldn’t believe how easy it was to schedule time with him leading up to the wedding. We had several video calls and he was always calm and confident as we dished him all the stress we could manage. He knew just what to say to ease our tensions with any part of the process and was helpful on all fronts, not just the music. Imagine a young Rick Rubin who’s going to make your day happen through fierce professionalism and calming holistic approach. Day of, Lucas was there early and making sure all the gear was working and problem solving on the scene to make the experience even better than we had talked about. He was able to not only have the music playing through the two large speakers we had planned for outside, but also got it seemlessly hooked up to the speakers throughout the interior space. This was key, because we had to last minute move the whole wedding inside due to rain. It was priceless to see see Lucas problem solving all of that with plenty of time to spare because I had so many other things to worry about with the shifting rain plans. I knew I didn’t have to worry about that whole part of it though, and the quality of the sound throughout the day really smoothed over all of the last minute adjustments and helped make everything feel like it was all part of the plan. It was a perfect day beyond my wildest expectations, and Lucas Walters was a huge part of that.

The quality of their work was truly outstanding - the photos and videos they captured were beautiful, exciting, and incredibly creative. Hannah and Matt were very intentional in the way they interacted with us and also made us feel very comfortable in front of the camera. We are thrilled with the final product and would highly recommend Whitt Photography and Film to any couple looking for a talented and professional photography team to capture their special day.

When searching for a photographer, I was overwhelmed by the number of options available. Dominique didn’t make me feel pressured. She provided us with her wedding guide, which gave us insight into who she is. When we met remotely, I instantly knew she was the one. She was enthusiastic, listened attentively, and asked us questions about what is important to us leading up to the wedding and beyond. She was great to work with, and I knew what to expect. She drafted our timeline, offered recommendations, and helped us design it based on what was important to my husband and me. She curated a family shot list, and let me tell you, she did not disappoint. Her and her team were amazing.

Hey! I'm Jess, the owner of the company that's named after me - shocking, right? I'm from the suburbs of Philly but now live up in the mountains of Northeast PA in Montrose, right on the border of Central NY. I'm married to a woodworker (who HAD to be the inspiration behind Ron Swanson because they're the same human), we live on 25 acres with three huge dogs (2 Golden Retrievers and one Great Pyrenees) and three ducks - and I'm constantly begging for more animals. I'm outgoing, sarcastic & humorous, and I love organization/cleaning, sushi, reading, The Office, and traveling everywhere I can.

Jess is a master of her craft and we could not imagine having chosen anyone else to capture our wedding day. Working with Jess is like working with a close friend — she immediately made us feel comfortable in front of the camera, helping us pose (and making us laugh) for shots that truly blow our minds and fill our hearts. She expertly captured our individual personalities and dynamic as a couple, the vibrant color of our event, and the energy and happiness that filled the room. We are indescribably happy and grateful to have worked with such a talented, thoughtful, hilarious, and creative human to make the memories of our wedding day last forever in her incredible photographs.
