Awarded Best of Zola
Matt through Enchanted Celebrations really exceeded our expectations. He was a blast to have around, he hyped us up, picked the perfect ways to capture our special day, and overall kept us on track throughout the day. We were so happy with working with him, and everyone at the event has commented on how great the photographer was throughout the event. After getting our photos FOUR DAYS after the wedding, we could not be more pleased! The turnaround on the edited photos was unreal, and the fully edited ones that we received exactly matched our desired look (dark and moody). We loved the way he captured us, our energy and the way that we interacted with each other throughout the day. He really caught "us" in the pictures and we'll cherish these photos forever. Big thanks to Matt and Enchanted Celebration!

A dream has recently come true, that of joining my destiny with my partner from now until old age. We are extremely grateful that we had Ioana with us, who honored us with her glamorous, sweet, cinematic style. Every time we go through the photos, we feel as if we are watching the most successful film of 2023, a masterpiece. There were moments that my husband and I forgot to prepare, being caught in the moment and the stress of the event tho Ioana gave us the wonderful surprise of capturing incredible and intimate pieces of memories . Her work manages to impress us everytime we watch our photos and make us feel loved and beautiful. Therefore, I recommend Mrs. Ioana Stavar with all my trust and love. I am sure that she will take care of you, with as much passion as she has for photography!

It was an absolute treat to work alongside Marybeth during our most recent collaboration. Her beautiful photography is just the tip of the iceberg. Marybeth is professional, imaginative, true to her word, and passionate about her work. Our photoshoot took place on a rather dreary, cloudy, summer day. Yet, Marybeth was able to transform the ambiance into a magical, thrilling, and romantic scene with her photography. I highly recommend her services to anyone looking for photos to treasure for years to come.

Madison Fender

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,000
  • Serves Upton, NY

Madison incorporates her photojournalistic and editorial style with a laid back approach so you can enjoy every second of your wedding without the added pressure of staged memories (I mean some things have to be posed but we make it fun). She makes sure your day runs smoothly while capturing real, raw moments and makes the photo part "quick and painless" so you can get back to your family and friends to enjoy every detail put in to your event. We specialize in naturally lit and low lit weddings. Flash photography and studio lighting are used as necessary to create clean, artsy images.

Madison was incredible throughout this whole process. She was communicative, quick and concise in communication/planning and her work speaks for itself. I fell in love with Madisons document style photography during our engagement photos and somehow the wedding photos are even better. I cannot say enough good things about her work!! Obsessed

Park Ave Studio 

4.6

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Upton, NY

I grew up in Lindenhurst, New York and had my first photography exhibit at the Lindenhurst Library. When I was in High School, my father worked for the airlines, so I got to travel the world taking pictures. I displayed them at the library and was hooked. I’ve been a professional wedding and portrait photographer since 1985.

Finding someone you trust to capture your wedding is such a huge weight on your shoulders, but Park Ave Studios made it easy. We booked them through a package with Whitby Castle and decided to add a second photographer and a videographer was easily the best decision we made. Ed and Will were fantastic; having two photographers allowed for so many different angles and styles that we would have missed otherwise. Our videographer, John, was equally amazing and captured the energy of the day perfectly. What really blew us away was the efficiency—we had all our images and videos back within 30 days! Plus, having personalized Thank You cards included in the package was a massive lifesaver during the post-wedding chaos. We can’t recommend this team enough!

Welcome + thank you for stopping by! I am so glad you're here! I'm Maria Love Mattera- my middle name is not Love- however I wish it was .. haha. I truly LOVE capturing love + beautiful moments in time- the funny, emotional, happy, candid and everything in between. Mom to 2 of the most loving + beautiful girls I have ever met. Wifey to the love of my life. When I am not documenting a love, I am wrapped up in my own love story, making memories w my loved ones. My favorite things in life in no particular order are butterflies, new age spirituality, romantic movies, yoga, star gazing, chocolate, the beach and laughing.

Maria was great to work with. We are both a little camera shy, but it was easy to feel comfortable with Maria and her assistant Alyssa. We got back so many photos, and they are all so lovely! I like that she is transparent about her prices on her website, and you get so much in your package. Hire Maria if you want to love your photos and have your memories captured beautifully!

Nas Zakir Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Upton, NY

Hi! My name is Nas :) I fell in love with photography at just 10 years old, when I picked up one of my dad's cameras and instantly connected with the art of capturing life. That same passion today drives my work as a documentary-style photographer. I focus on the raw, candid, and fleeting moments. The ones that may go unnoticed, but can mean the most.

I found Nas on Reddit and I’m so glad I did! She is just getting her start in her career but that was hard to tell from the beautiful, movie-like photos she delivered that captured my finances and my love doing something we love together, walking our dog around our neighborhood in Brooklyn. Nas’ style is very candid with fewer posing prompts; she takes creative shots while also making sure to get all the backgrounds we wanted. It was her first time shooting a dog and she did an amazing job capturing his quirkiness and bouncy walk. She was right on time with the shoot and delivering photos and was responsive via email and text.

I haven’t received my pictures yet since it has been only 3 weeks from the wedding. So far so good. ( I’ll be updating the info)

I never lose sight of the happy couple in the big crowd. Authentic meets relaxed and intimate, yet captures all the feels. I ONLY shoot couples and weddings. I believe in the phrase " do one thing, and do it really well"

Elise was our wedding photographer. Is she the best? She’s the best in more ways than one can ask for in a photographer. Elise goes above and beyond for her clients providing exceptional service in addition to the stunning photos she takes of your special day. From regular check-ins, her words of encouragement, to her “roll up your sleeves” attitude to help you through moments of uncertainty and crisis, she is more than a photographer - she is your teammate and someone who you can rely on. We were so lucky to have her by our side. Thank you, Elise. We literally could not have done it without you. Of course, I highly recommend her services without any reservation.

Gelfman Photography

  • Serves Upton, NY

Gelfman Photography is a boutique studio that’s led by Matt and Lesley—newlyweds as of December 2023—who both have their Bachelor's in Photography and over ten years of experience in portrait and event work. Wedding photography is a very personal and vulnerable thing. You’re letting newcomers into the innermost circle of one of the biggest days of your life! We strongly feel that your photographers shouldn’t be nameless technicians that were just “assigned” to you. You should be comfortable with them as you would be with friends and feel safe in knowing they’re well-versed in the things that mean the most to you on your big day.

Matt and Lesley from Gelfman Photography are absolutely amazing. They have amazing communication, answering emails and messages very quickly. They are hardworking, honest, and produce beautiful photographs. When our wedding timeline got pushed back, they adjusted the schedule to make sure I got all of my important shots. Their prices are extremely fair, and they have made my whole wedding run so smoothly. I would highly recommend Gelfman Photography to any couple looking for a talented and professional photography team.

I am a Long Island based Wedding & Portrait Photographer that loves a good adventure. I'm the guy who just truly enjoys being behind a camera. I definitely think I got into photography because my Mom always was behind a camera. Most of the time she was the team Mom, and was frequently seen on the sidelines snapping photos of everything she could. It was her interest in photography that led me to appreciate what it takes to create a beautiful photograph.

We can’t recommend Mike enough! Upon initially seeing his work, we had our hearts set on booking him as our photographer and literally based our date on his availability. The entire process, from the initial meeting, to the engagement shoot, drafting a wedding day timeline, and the day itself, was seamless. Both our engagement photos and wedding photos are stunning and we are so in love with them. We’ll be making every excuse to use Mike as our photographer in the future! - Jaclyn and Mike June 22, 2024

Hi, I’m Christian, founder of Ascent Media. I started this work because I love capturing the emotion, excitement, and quiet moments that make a wedding day unforgettable. My approach is warm, relaxed, and detail-focused, making sure you feel comfortable in front of the camera while I handle everything behind the scenes. From intimate elopements to full celebrations, my goal is to tell your story honestly and artistically — through both cinematic drone shots and classic, elegant photography.

Ascent Media Corporation were the perfect photographers for our wedding day. Their communication was concise, clear and efficient, making the planning process a breeze. The quality of their work was amazing - they captured exactly the artistic, natural poses we were looking for. Their creative eye and technical skill resulted in photographs that truly reflected the joy and beauty of our special day. We couldn't be happier with the photos Ascent Media delivered, and we highly recommend them to any couple planning their wedding.

I’ve always been a sun chaser, edit all nighter, “Look at the sky” type of person! Photoshoots can seem scary. I can assure you’ll feel comfortable with me being your photographer once I fill you in on a few things about me. Yes, I’m a dog person, my dog is my soul sister. Forget high heels, I’d rather be barefoot. Cozy wine nights over clubbing. Forever not a morning person. Bubble baths and Netflix. Tacos for dinner..again. Sweatpants all winter. Full of dad jokes. Sundays are for Shameless. I’m on the creative right side of the brain, laughing at everything gal!

Monica, I ADORE YOU!!! I have totally made a forever friend in Monica. My husband really loved all of our vendors, but he keeps asking about Monica even now. LOL!! (He knows we talk on insta) She is just awesome. She really tailored to our requests of candid photos rather than removing us from our wedding for photos. She was everywhere throughout the night and truly captured it all. She is such a joy to be around, and you can truly tell she loves what she does. I feel like she was a guest having fun! And I hope she was! Can not wait to use Monica for all of my future photoshoots.

Our relationship is the driving force behind our work and lives. In the past we have worked with some of New York's leading wedding studios. During this time we felt something was missing. Let the couples be who they are in the most 'vero' way possible. We want our couples to tell us their story. To share with us their most authentic moments. We are so happy that our work has brought you here and more than anything else, hope it makes you feel something. We firmly believe that when it comes to picking a studio for your special day it needs to be a right fit for you.

We are so happy with our decision to work with Steph and Dhruv for our engagement and wedding photos and video! They took so much care in all of the details you can imagine. And a huge shoutout to Steph for making me comfortable in front of a camera, where usually I shy away. The finished products are absolutely fantastic, and we could not be happier with the quality and beauty of the photos and video we have from our day. Another shoutout to Dhruv for being so down to take an amazing video of my wife playing the drums at the wedding. Steph and Dhruv both are truly amazing and talented and have such a great vision for their work. Thank you guys so much!
