Duet was one of the best choices we made for our wedding day. From the first email to the very end, Hanel and Mike were extremely communicative, friendly and helpful. I wanted bright and airy photos and they did just that. Mike took both our engagement photos and our wedding photos. I’m obsessed with every single photo they took.

We hired VIDART for our wedding in Palatine, and honestly the photos turned out way better then I expected. The ceremony ran late and we lost some daylight, but he was super quick with lighting adjustments and somehow made everything feel warm and moody. My only regret is not booking an extra hour because the dance floor shots are incredible and I wish we had more. Highly recomended.

Photographs are love letters to the heart. I’m here to capture the most important moments of your life from the first anniversary, to the engagement, to the first day of your lives as a married couple. I have been a photographer for 8 years now and I love what I do! Not everyone can say they chose their career at the age of 14 but I feel so lucky enough to say I did. Located in the Seattle/Tacoma area willing to travel anywhere to be your official hype woman!

Awarded Best of Zola
We had an incredible experience with Allison Lauryn Photography for our wedding! Allison’s professionalism stood out from the start—she clearly knows what she’s doing. I’ve been in weddings where posed photos take hours, but Allison was so efficient and got every shot we wanted in a short amount of time without feeling rushed. The candid photos from the reception are amazing; seeing all the interactions of our guests was such a gift since the day itself was a whirlwind for us. She even accommodated a last-minute request just a week before the wedding to add her photo booth option, which was a huge hit with everyone! Allison communicated clearly, laid out a timeline for photo delivery, and delivered exactly as promised. We couldn’t be happier and highly recommend Allison Lauryn Photography to anyone looking for a talented and reliable photographer

Emma Melin Studios 
Rating: 5.0 (56 reviews)
Brooklyn, NY
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $8,000

I am a queer, New York City-based photographer documenting candid joy and human connection. Drawn to emotion and the beauty in everyday moments, I approach my work with mindfulness and intuition – balancing gentle guidance with an observational presence. What I value most about my job is the ability to connect with people and witness their stories unfold in raw, vulnerable ways. I hope that my work is a reflection of these moments: honest, emotive, and intentionally seen.

Awarded Best of Zola
I found Emma shortly after getting engaged in a moment of serendipity; I was looking at tagged photos of my wedding venue on instagram and came across a beautiful photograph of my venue with the photographer describing it as a bucket list location for her to shoot. Fate. She was the very first vendor I booked and one of my proudest moments in the clusterf*ck chaos that is wedding planning. Emma is not only a joy to be around but also a genuine professional. She showed up early and guided us through the day with clear direction and communication, while still being flexible to our spontaneity. She kept our vision at the forefront of her mind while also keeping everything running smoothly and efficiently to where we actually had time to relax with our wedding party before the ceremony. After the wedding when our photos started rolling in and we began sharing them with friends and family, I received a response from a friend that accurately summed up my own feelings: “holy sh*t these photos are good.” So basically, if you want holy sh*t good wedding photos, you should definitely book Emma for your wedding.

Awarded Best of Zola
Johnny was absolutely wonderful to have as part of our wedding day. From the moment he arrived (early, of course), he brought such a calm, steady energy that instantly made both my husband and me feel comfortable—which is saying something, because neither of us is particularly into posing for photos. The complimentary engagement shoot was such a smart and generous touch. It gave us a chance to loosen up, find our rhythm with him, and honestly made the wedding day feel that much smoother. He gave just the right amount of direction when we needed it—but the real magic was in the candid shots. He caught moments we didn’t even realize were happening, and now we get to relive them with full hearts and full clarity. Johnny didn’t just take pictures. He helped. He quietly supported so many little things that weren’t even his job—and did it all with this clear passion and grounded presence that made him feel like a friend, not just a vendor. If you’re looking for someone who truly sees the day—who captures the energy, the in-between moments, the real stuff—hire Johnny. Don’t wait. He’s the one.

If you’re looking for a team that’s organized, warm, and deeply invested in your day, you’re in the right place.

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Promani for our April 2025 wedding for both photo and video and I was so, so happy with how everything came out. Both Taylor (photo) and James (video) were so great to work with. And it was so fun being able to see the photo and action shots that they directed for us, come to life in the final product. I was originally a bit apprehensive, given I wasn’t going to be able to see the direct work from my day-of photographer and videographer, but Benjamin the owner assured me that style and quality were trained to Promani’s standards. I really wish I could have told the anxious bride (me) that everything would be okay and turn out beautifully. Post-wedding, Benjamin was super responsive in working with me to make some final tweaks to the video and albums. I’m in the Boston-area and Promani has recently started expanding their work here. I would highly recommend - beautiful work, and super fair pricing for their photo/video bundle, especially for the quality of their work.

From our first contact with Te Dua Weddings, their communication style was quick, relatable and reassuring. The quality of their work was truly elegant, personal, elevated and storytelling. They had a calm presence throughout the day and even helped carry my dress train when I was worried about it getting dirty. It felt like the Te Dua team was there not only as a vendor, but as friends who wanted our wedding to feel personal and seamless. They really cared about us as clients rather than just getting the shot. The video was delivered fast and beautifully, capturing all the special moments of our day. We could not have asked for a better videography team to document our wedding.

Marilyn Lamanna Photography

Astoria, NY
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $8,500

Hey there! My name is Marilyn. I live in New York City with my sweet partner, and our orange cat Maple. I’m an introverted, soft-hearted mush with an insatiable need to document the beauty in life. Practicing self-portraits in middle school eventually led me to pursue my photography degree from New York University, and I have been joyfully creating photos of wedding days ever since. To me, weddings are a magical display of the human spirit. It’s my biggest honor and joy to create imagery that captures that human magic - especially in a way that breaks the boundaries of historically gendered traditions.

Awarded Best of Zola
We have worked with Marilyn for mini sessions, engagement photos, and our wedding. Each time, Marilyn never ceases to amaze us with her ability to capture timeless photos that feel like us. Over the past few years, during the mini sessions and engagement shoot we did with Marilyn, she made us so comfortable in front of her camera. When it came to taking our portraits at our wedding, it felt like second nature - something that wouldn’t have happened with just any photographer. On our wedding day, the group photos flowed seamlessly, and it felt like they took no time at all. Marilyn captured our wedding day so beautifully, we truly can’t stop looking at the photos. She delivered a gallery that has the perfect blend of posed portraits and documentary style shots of the day. There is not a single photo in our wedding gallery that we dislike. Whether it’s for a casual couples shoot or your wedding, we highly recommend Marilyn - you will not regret it!

Nostalgia drove me into photography at an early age - and lead me into my studies of photojournalism. We all innately know when we're at a critical juncture in our lives. For me, being able to authentically capture, to preserve those moments in a photograph is such a privilege. I know how much it means to me to be able to look back and say 'this is how things actually happened.' There is beauty in those truths. The kind of folks I work with share that appreciation.

He also got the pictures back to us incredibly fast. We truly cannot recommend Corey (Revolution Summer Photography) enough!

Obvs. My style blends both documentary photojournalism and fine art photography: coaching folks who are shy in front of the camera, then stepping back to capture authentic moments uninterrupted. I’ve been lucky enough to have my work published by A Practical Wedding, The New York Times, GLAMOUR, People Magazine and many other fabulous outlets. I'm a stereotypical Capricorn that loves drag shows, campy horror films, every dog I meet, and Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups.

Don’t think you’re photogenic? Worried that folks in your family, wedding party, etc. aren’t photogenic? Justin will MAKE them photogenic. The man is a wizard with the camera, able to capture moments and poses you never imagined possible. The photographer for our wedding was the one thing we knew we would need to splurge on to make sure we felt comfortable and happy on our wedding day. Justin spent so much time working with us on exactly what we wanted while at the same time, truly getting to know us and my god, does it show. Justin was able to capture the true essence of ourselves in our wedding photos, to the point where we started tearing up just looking at them. We cannot recommend this BEAUTIFUL human enough. They are truly the greatest

I’m Peter, the guy behind Bedrosian Photo. I photograph weddings, people, parties, emotion, chaos, and all the weird little moments in between. I care way more about honesty than perfection — the nervous energy before a ceremony, your drunk uncle on the dance floor, your grandma crying quietly in the corner, or the split-second look your partner gives you when they think nobody’s watching. Those moments matter more than anything staged ever could.

Peter and his team at Bedrosian Photo did an incredible job capturing our wedding day. My husband and I usually feel awkward in front of the camera, but Peter made us feel completely at ease during the posed shots—and he also captured some truly beautiful candid moments of us and our guests. The quality of the photos and video was outstanding. The colors were vibrant and natural, and the video was edited perfectly. Peter mentioned that he spends about a week selecting color tones that match the couple and the venue, and it really shows in the final result. His communication with his team was seamless, and he treated our wedding with so much care and intention—it never felt like just another job to him. We're forever grateful to Bedrosian Photo for preserving our day so beautifully.

Looking at the photos feels like flipping through the best storybook of my life. Every chapter is there, from the nervous getting ready moments to the wild dancing at the end. The colors are so rich and the emotions are so clear, it’s like time travel. The video is even better, it makes me cry every time and my husband too (though he won’t admit it). I love the candid moments, like when my bridesmaids were fixing my veil and we were all laughing. They didn’t just document the day, they made ART. It’s crazy how they can make even the smallest moment look magical. I will never stop being thankful for these memories. They are worth every single penny and then some.

About wedding photographers

How much does a wedding photographer cost?

Wedding photographers early in their careers can cost as little as $1,500. Super experienced photographers, as seen in magazines like Vogue and Vanity Fair, can cost upwards of $30,000. The range is wide, but, in general, you can expect to spend around 10% of your budget on wedding photography. Rates also vary based on wedding length, the services you want, and location. A photographer based in an area with a lower cost of living, for example, will be less than one based in New York or San Francisco.

How much should we tip our wedding photographer?

A good rule of thumb is to tip 10% of their rate, or at least $100. If they’re bringing second photographers or assistants, an additional $50 to $75 per person is an appropriate and nice gesture.

What questions should we ask wedding photographers?

Aside from logistical questions about packages, pricing, and availability, it’s also important to use your conversation to get a sense of their personality. This person will be with you and your loved ones every step of your wedding day, including, if you want, in the dressing room! It’s very important that you and your partner both feel comfortable with them and their working style. Talk about your venue, how you want to feel when you look at your photos, and which photos from their portfolio you like best.
