Brittany Ford Photography, LLC

5.0

Corfu, NY
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $6,500
  • Serves Syracuse, NY

I am a New York based wedding photographer, but I am always down to travel and get out of the snow belt. I have been shooting for years but as of the last few, I decided to make this wonderful hobby a full time career.

where do I even start when I’m telling you about Brittany…working with her is a breath of fresh air, it’s a dream and something I hope everyone get to experience in their lives. My husband and I did a styled shoot with her, she sent me her vision and I immediately knew this was going to be epic! From the moment we met we had an instant connection, truly working with Brittany is like gaining a best friend. She is encouraging and made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera (especially my husband who really hates photos like a typical man) I was blown away by the photos, I spent hours scrolling through all the photos finding my new favorite every page I clicked. She made me feel like the most beautiful girl in the world, hyping us up every moment of the shoot and even pushing us out of our comfort zone and the photos are amazing because of this! Every single detail was thought of, these are photos I truly will cherish for the rest of my life. I the pleasure to work with Brittany again when she did my sister’s wedding this past summer. Brittany feels like part of the family, she was there to help me fix my hair or touch up a curl on my hair. She is the ultimate package, a true girls girl ! No BS no gimmicks, just amazing work and an even more amazing girl behind the camera. I feel so lucky to have B. Ford in my life forever now !!

Chrysa Leigh Photography

5.0

Syracuse, NY
  • Photojournalistic style

I'm Chrysa- a self-taught photographer since 2014. My entire life I've always been in love with taking pictures. Whether it was using a Polaroid as a kid, bringing the ole digital point & shoot along to the bars in college (until I dropped it in a vodka RedBull - RIP) or finally growing up & buying my first big girl DSLR in my early 20s, I have always had a flare for anything creative. I'm sure my parents wished I had a flare for performing heart surgery but here we are... I love travel & all things adventure/outdoors (Want to climb a mountain to elope? I'm your girl. Want to exchange vows in a National Park? I've been to 29, count me in).

I can’t say enough about Chrysa, not only is she amazing but her work tops that, she makes you comfortable in the moment and it clearly shows with the pictures!! Book her for your needs!!!

Hey- I'm Nicole. When I'm not working with the raddest couples I'm typically brewery hopping with my wife, or home spending time with my three dogs.

I have been photographing weddings for over ten years, and in that time have had the opportunity to travel around the world and meet tons of new friends.

Wozztography

5.0

Cicero, NY
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,599

We all start this wild journey one way or another. My way? I was introduced to Ansel Adams’ work in a Photo 1 class in high school. How would the kids say this… his black and whites were giving adventure? What I mean is, they were nice. I had already been hiking the Adirondacks for 15 years at that point, why couldn’t I do it? Why couldn’t I take those photos too? I set out to prove to myself I could. Over the past decade I’ve evolved from landscapes to sports to family portraits to weddings. I continue all of those today. Never forget your roots, right?

Awarded Best of Zola
I couldn’t recommend wozztography more. We have been working with him for years and it was a no brainer when we got engaged. He helped us feel comfortable and suggested fun poses, and then walked us through lots of things he wanted to take pictures of when it came to our wedding. He balanced letting me take control of what pictures I wanted and giving direction. We even got some drone shots. He was willing to travel, upbeat and energetic and captured the best day of our lives better than we ever hoped.

The Story Photography

5.0

North Syracuse, NY
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,500

Wedding photography that matters is about the people and the feelings of the wedding day. It's not about the poses that I might imagine or the pretty details that surround the day. My passion is in finding the beauty in the REAL moments of a wedding day and preserving those to not only remind you of that love but to share it with generations to come.

There are no words to describe how incredible Chris is. He was calm, creative, and a pleasure to work with. Truly one of our favorite vendors. We were floored when we got our pictures back. He captured everything beautifully and we hardly knew he was there! At the end of the night he gave us the kindest words and smiles. Do not even think twice about contacting him - he is the real deal and will make the process easy.

Thalia is a NYC & destination wedding photographer based in Queens, NY. Being the lead photographer and owner of her business, she has 10 years of experience capturing engaged couples. She has developed a keen eye for detail, leaving couples with intentional photographs that capture the authenticity of their wedding day. A New York native, she grew up on Long Island for many years where she received her BFA in Visual Arts from SUNY Old Westbury and now - if she's not traveling - you can find her enjoying a new coffee shop or re-watching The Office!

Awarded Best of Zola
Before I was even engaged I knew that Thalia was IT for me. It was never even a question about who, it was making sure I booked her. I’ve had the pleasure of following her work for some years and more than the beauty of each image she captures, I love the way it made me feel. I felt like I was getting a sneak peek at someone’s happiest moments. I truly felt like each picture was so intentional and filled with love, yet not rehearsed or feigned. I even ended up making my wedding date a day that Thalia was available because that’s the only thing I knew for sure was a must-have for me! Fast forward to today, and I couldn’t be happier with my photos. When I looked at my album, it was like reliving all of the little details, all of the special moments, and that’s priceless. Thalia is a true professional, who makes you feel comfortable in your skin and can magically capture the beauty and essence of every moment. If you’re into that sort of thing then I can’t recommend Thalia enough!

There is nothing I love more than photographing weddings - a day full of raw emotion and I get to document and make art of out it! I'm a newlywed so I totally get what you're going through! We recently adulted hard and bought a house - next up is a dog! Please tag me in all funny dog videos :) I love occasionally working out, always eating cookies, and watching nonstop romantic comedies - especially while I edit (let's not talk about how many times I've seen Dirty Dancing). Can't wait to meet you!

I have told everyone I know that the decision to marry my husband was the first best decision I made and hiring Michelle as our wedding photographer was the second best!! She is hands down the most amazing and talented person to work with on your wedding day! From the very first Email Michelle makes you feel like you guys have been friends for years! She is so down to earth and instantly makes you feel comfortable whether its through email, FaceTime or over the phone she makes it known that she is there for you the entire planning process. Michelle answers every single email almost instantly and no question is ever a dumb question. She will walk you through every single minute of your wedding day to make sure things run smoothly and so you have nothing to worry about the day of, and she even calls the shots when it comes to getting the family in order for family pictures. My biggest concern when looking for a photographer was how I always felt my husband and I weren’t the most photogenic people and we aren’t comfortable in front of the camera and boy was I wrong. Michelle not only captured some of the most beautiful pictures of us together but she captured the pure love we share and feel for each other. Michelle got the pictures back to us so quick and she keeps you in the loop the entire time. If you are on the fence about a wedding photographer do yourself a favor and email her!!!!!

Rayleen and Tim are the best photographers in New England. When my partner’s family hired them to capture family portraits for his grandmother’s 85th birthday, he secretly arranged to use them for a surprise proposal the very next day. Rayleen was completely into the whole idea and came incognito so she wouldn’t be recognized the next day. She even brought her partner Tim and their son to disguise themselves as a family taking pictures at the beach. While my now husband was proposing to me, she sprung into action and captured everything. She even brought in cute touches like covertly taking a picture of my hand at the birthday party without the ring, and then putting it next to a picture with the ring to capture my transformation over that weekend. The pictures were epic, beautifully framed, well lit and colored, and captured so much of the feeling of that day. Once we started planning our wedding we immediately booked them for our photographers and because of a postponement due to COVID, we ended up working with them for three years. Rayleen took our engagement pictures and was really helpful in narrowing down a good location. During this photoshoot, Rayleen climbed up a tree so she could get the perfect angle, while pregnant! She spent the entire afternoon taking pictures of us and making us look our best. When our wedding day finally came, Rayleen and Tim delivered. Our wedding was outside, in July, during like a 90-degree day. They were total troopers making sure we got all the pictures we wanted of the ‘first look’, ourselves, the bridal party, and families before the ceremony even started. They were super creative with their photo ideas and also made sure they captured all the pictures both my husband and I wanted. Rayleen and my husband even conspired to surprise me again for a huge group photo at the end of the night, which involved them bringing their own bubble machine to complete the shot. I would easily recommend Meraki Photo, Inc for your wedding photographers, and I know we will be using them again for our future photography needs.

I am so glad you're here! I LOVE my family and I am OBSESSED with anything Kate Spade and if I could live in yoga pants, I would. My favorite thing to do other than photography is cook. I am lucky my husband and kiddos love eating as much as they do! We love the beach and anything Disney! I fully believe in having ice cream for breakfast and I cannot pass by a good Italian restaurant without going in. My heart melts when my boy says I love you or kisses my cheek. Being a photographer has allowed me to freeze some of our sweetest moments and I hope to be able to do that for you. xoxo

We are so happy with how our pictures turned out! My husband and I are not very photogenic people and Lauren made us feel so comfortable and look so natural in our pictures!! She is a true professional. Would recommend her a 1000 times over!!

King went above and beyond with our engagement session; he flew all the way out to Colorado from Florida to do it and was very flexible with my husband as they made preparations for that day.

Hullo! So you're gettin' hitched (YaaY!), but you’re not super into the idea of the overly-manicured wedding. A+ for you, because this is not your parents’ wedding photography. I'm a farm kid who floats between the journalism and art worlds. I love telling stories as much as I love listening to the stories of others. I’m the type of person who makes up musicals for my own amusement and nurses a soft spot for sci-fi and fantasy. If I’m not taking photos, I’m usually dancing. Or cooking. It’s possible I may have a baking addiction and try to mitigate the damage by forcing the goods on loved ones.

Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! If you’re thinking about hiring Natura Collective, then stop thinking and just say yes! Christian and Emilio are out of this world—we’re talking complete creative geniuses. We hired them for our wedding photography, and they also did our engagement shoot. From our initial conversations, we knew these guys were the real deal: funny, compassionate, down to earth, and truly in love with their job. They brought a passion and energy to our wedding day that is honestly indescribable. They captured so many beautiful moments for us, I’m convinced we’re going to need a War and Peace sized photo album to put them in! They captured every moment of our day beautifully: from candid photos of everyone getting ready to close ups of of all of the details to the day to formal group shots and amazing and creative action shots of our dance floor and everything in between. We are a mixed race couple/family, and they knew how to light and capture absolutely everyone beautifully. They are fantastic at their jobs, as they are intuitive and naturally bring out the best in people, which translates into gorgeous, glowing photograph. They are also just great people themselves, which is important since they were such a big party of our day. Getting to know them throughout this process has been its own benefit.

Cannot recommend Joe Banker Photography and Videography enough! We hired them for our wedding and received a free engagement shoot in our package.

Because of this, we ended up extending our wedding package to include our rehearsal and rehearsal dinner. Joe and Ashley were part of our entire wedding weekend and were one of our favorite parts. They were calm, extremely professional, constantly being flexible with weather and lighting, and so accommodating to my husband and I and our entire bridal party. They were so unbelievable that we received texts and calls from guests about how appreciative they were of Joe and Ashley - and this was BEFORE our wedding day pics even were released! Needless to say, our pictures and videos from our wedding weekend were perfect. Joe and Ashley have a keen eye for beautiful shots and what works for each couple.

And he actually loves the way he looks in the photos! (He usually hates having his photo taken and the way he photographs.) Kaitlyn was able to capture our silliness, laughter, and genuine happiness in the candid photos which is exactly the look and feel I was hoping for in our photos! (I’m personally not a fan of the stiff posed or moody photos.) Our second engagement shoot also included our dog, which was fantastic! Not only was Kaitlyn great to work with on wedding day and the 2 engagement shoots, she was also a great resource for planning the logistics and timeline of the wedding day. She had great input of the flow of the entire day, which was something I had completely overlooked. Most importantly, Kaitlyn was very professional the entire time. We also gave Kaitlyn the added task of photographing the flower girl nieces (ages 2 & 7 years) and the ring bearer nephew (age 5) who is on the Autism Spectrum. All 3 kiddos still talk months later about how they had so much fun at the wedding! And Kaitlyn was able to capture them all smiling! Photographing dogs and kids is always difficult to ask for, but the photos of our smiling nephew on our wedding day made the parents and grandparents cry tears of joy! It’s rare to catch this kid smiling! We loved working with Kaitlyn, and we can’t wait to do more photoshoots together in the future!

He was responsive to all of my questions and concerns leading up to the big day, and he even offered helpful suggestions to ensure that everything went off without a hitch. He captured every moment beautifully. His attention to detail and ability to discreetly photograph the raw emotion of the moment was truly remarkable.

Hey future newlyweds! I'm Jarrod, a wedding photographer that specializes in story telling. Tired of all the bright, overposed, cookie cutter sh*t you keep seeing? Let's create wedding images with real emotion, story, and intention to them. I know being in front of the camera can be awkward. That's why I choose not to pose couples, but instead prompt you to do something like "take off your shoes and run across the field" or " get inside the car and kiss everywhere except the lips". These prompts will help you feel comfortable and also help create candid images. Check out my website for more info :)

Jarrod did an amazing job on our wedding day! We were so very grateful to have him there with us. He was absolutely amazing and did a great job collaborating with our other vendors and coordinating logistics and timing of what we wanted to have done.

I was introduced to the world of photography the same week I was introduced to the world! All thanks to my Dad, who was never without his camcorder or camera. Because of him, our memories growing up are preserved. Then I got my first camera + tons of film. I documented everything. When film turned into digital, that was a turning point in my life. Since then, my memories, large + small, have been organized on my computer, by year. So I can go back + revisit so many wonderful memories from my life...most which I wouldn't remember without pictures!

I had a small wedding at home and she was there early in the morning and took photos of the entire day. She was taking photos to make my day memorable and focused on the details that I am so grateful she was able to capture. She photographed my family members too and made me feel beautiful on my day. I sometimes get awkward in front of cameras but she made me feel comfortable and I would for sure book her again when given the chance. I highly recommend. She’s very understanding of different cultures and made sure to capture those moments that made my day special. She edits beautifully and she also sent a flash drive in a beautifully presented box. I loved it. Her attention to detail is impeccable and you can tell she loves what she does. So grateful that my sister discovered her. Nicole was absolutely amazing.

New York, NY
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Syracuse, NY

After graduating from Parson's School of Art in Manhattan, I worked as a fine artist, my work involved photography and photo manipulation. I quickly discovered that I loved and excelled at photo retouching, and went on to work for some of the best photo retouching studios in New York. In 2009 I shot my first wedding, it was a dear friend of mine and the beautiful photos were featured in one of the biggest wedding magazines. I realized that I had found my calling and have been producing stunning wedding photographs with my amazing team and clients ever since.

I was referred to Emma Cleary via a gf who had just had her wedding shot and said she did great work so I was happy to get a glowing referral while trying to source vendors. Emma was a godsend for me, because my wedding had so much that I wanted to cover, with so many moving pieces (7 musical acts, 20 performers, etc.) at so many different locations (a memorial area for first look, then over to a Park for ceremony, then a boat to an Island for the reception) via different modes of transportation (car, ferry, boat, 2nd line parade) over multiple nights (we shot both Friday -Sunday am) but her and her team came along for the entire ride and nailed it and I got AMAZING photos for every part. The lead photographer was so on it (which we needed bc we were on such a tight schedule) and the other photographers were also great and told us jokes which helped me actually get genuine smiles and helped so much during the stressful first look. My veil blew away during my photos (before the ceremony, sigh) and they were there trying to climb the tree to get it (but it was way too high up!) but A+ for effort. And the best part was that she actually SAVED my wedding... we had planned on getting married next to a carousel inside a public park, and the carousel party coordinator didn't file the required permit we needed so a hour before I walked down the aisle the park rangers came in and forced the setup/guests out. Emma knew the owner of a nearby restaurant where she had shot wedding photos before and asked the owner if we could use in front of his restaurant (facing the water) as a ceremony site. If that had not happened then who knows where I would have gotten married. She worked with my wedding planner and my guests (and us too!) had a place to have our ceremony last second... she was a total life saver during such a stressful and important moment. And then at the end once we received the photos, my favorite part was the light editing which was just the right amount, not too fake, so was perfect. Some of the photos dont even look like we are in a city which I just loved loved loved and had said I wanted, and then when we wanted city or actions shots she got those too so we had options of everything we did in every way. There is one shot where she got the end of our first dance and it looks like we are in a Broadway play! Anyways, as you could tell I couldnt have recommended any more bc she has so many years of experience it helped us with not only capturing the moments perfectly, and in a perfect way, it also helped us bc she knows all the wedding venues and wedding industry people and I never realized how much that plays a part in booking vendors.

I get camera shy easily and I let her know of this - her response made me feel so comforted and less anxious. Her style of shooting is really laid back and fun - we didn't even feel like we were being photographed to be honest. She had us do funny prompts to make us laugh, or would sneak photos from somewhere without us even seeing. She has such an eye for creative shots that really represented us as a couple. Her and her assistant Marissa were an AWESOME team. HIRE HER!

We loved working with Ella! I was looking for a photographer I could click with, friendly and artistic. After a long search, I was happy to come across her page. I contacted her with a thousand and one questions, and she was sweet and responded in a timely fashion. She advised on venues that might accommodate my guests, djs she's worked with, catering businesses that her previous brides used, florists - I mean, I was so happy to have an insight, as a new bride I had no idea where to turn, and I was happy to get her help. On our wedding day, Ella was everywhere I turned my head. She got to the venue a little before our scheduled time and took pictures of our venue and table décor and scouted places we could do our family and bridal pictures at. I wanted a first look with my Dad - and Ella organized that to happen without ruining the moment. I liked that she suggested things I haven't thought about, like a first look with my bridesmaids, cute pictures with my flower girls, etc. Every detail I wanted, Ella captured, and so much more. Our wedding pictures are so beautiful, I sit and look through them every few months and sometimes I print different ones for our living room walls.

Jess and her second shooter were absolutely clutch - they came EARLIER than expected, took a look at all the spacing, and planned out what exactly what we would do and where. Jess also managed my absolutely crazy family by figuring out who should be in what photo EVEN THOUGH she had never met them before. And she did amazingly beautiful getting ready photos. I don't know what to tell you except that I'm in awe of her artistic talent and what a complete steal she is. For someone who already had really high expectations to live up to from the engagement shoot, Jess hit every single expectation we had and more! We chose a crazy artistic venue with a courtyard, garage, townhome, and gallery - but Jess managed to find all the best lighting while also managing to keep us away from guests during our first-look photos. She has just such an eye for style it's CRAZY! And she captured all the small details perfectly. There's really no choice here - if you want someone who captures the real moments and gives you photos that let you remember what your wedding FELT LIKE - not what it looks like on a postcard, but the real gosh-darn emotion, then you need to book Jess. You 100% will be so happy you did - because the person behind the lens is also a gem. <3

We got married at a yacht club and we had mentioned to Ishan how we would love a photo on a big yacht. He again rose to the occasion. We found friendly boat owners who let us board their yacht and Ishan got photos of us opening champagne and drone photos of us lying on the bow. He thinks on his feet and comes up with awesome photos in any circumstance. Ishan Fotografi really captured the highlights of the wedding perfectly.

Weddings are celebrations that are full of emotion and romance all in a highly dynamic environment. Wedding photographs are timeless and irreplaceable so as a photographer, I feel I have a great responsibility at hand. I try my best to work with clients on their needs, provide flexible coverage hours and I work within their budgets. I am drawn to those unguarded candid moments. I attempt to portray an artistic feel that reveals feelings of emotion onto the viewer. Be it a gaze, a beaming smile, tears of joy or a blurred image to depict movement my goal is communication. It is these moments along with many others I feel should be captured.

We were so happy with Jose and Carlos. They were organized, prompt, flexible, and of course fantastic artists. Out pictures are fantastic and perfectly in line with our style preferences. Jose directed us with ease and skill making the photo sessions fun and producing great shots. Also, I have to mention how Jose was super helpful on the wedding day. He even noticed that our wedding had gone MIA and that time was running late so he set up our cake cutting for us.

She was so patient with group pictures and made sure we got exactly what we dreamed about. She listened to everything we wanted out of a photographer and always made sure everyone was on the same page. From start to finish, everyone is so incredibly happy with the hard work she put in making these pictures something we will treasure forever. She will make any wedding even more magical and we cannot recommend her enough!

We had the pleasure of hiring a documentary-style wedding photographer for our special day, and I couldn't be happier with the results. Their ability to capture candid moments and genuine emotions was truly remarkable. The photos tell a story that goes beyond posed shots, giving us a vivid and authentic memory of our wedding. Their attention to detail is impeccable, and they have a keen eye for capturing the little moments that often go unnoticed. From the laughter shared between guests to the heartfelt glances exchanged during the ceremony, every emotion was beautifully documented. Not only did they capture the essence of the day, but they did so with a level of professionalism and discretion that put everyone at ease. They seamlessly blended into the background, allowing for natural interactions and genuine expressions to shine through. Their post-processing work enhanced the photos without veering into heavy editing, maintaining the genuine feel of the day. The color palettes and tones used in the final edits were tastefully done, adding to the overall storytelling. We wholeheartedly recommend this photographer to anyone seeking more than just pictures – they deliver an emotional journey through their lens. If you're looking for a wedding photographer who can capture the true essence of your day, this documentary-style photographer is an absolute must.

Laura is wonderful to work with! Laura's style of photography is what had originally drawn us to her; her ability to capture candid moments and how she always seems to get the perfect lighting! The photos she took completely captured the overall warm and loving vibe of our wedding. She must be some sort of magician... or just the best possible wedding photographer... Booking her was easy. She was easy to get in touch with and was always prompt to respond. I'm glad we booked her early to lock in our date. She is a very popular photographer and she books up fast! We met Laura before our wedding to go over the details of the venue and timeline of the night. She is a pro so she can make any venue, even the warehouse we booked, look bright and not dark and dingy. Day of, Laura came happy and ready to shoot. Our portraits with parents and the bridal party were not only beautiful, taken in a field, but also super fun! Laura knows how to make you feel good about yourself when she's shooting you! She was also making jokes which helped make us all comfortable. The ceremony and reception pictures were just breathtaking! She captured how funny our officiant was, our special "I do" moment and of course our first kiss as husband and wife! During our reception, we had circus performers lead the guests in hula hooping and juggling... Laura was able to get some amazing action shots on the fly! Overall, Laura is the absolute best. She was the perfect photographer for our special day and I cannot imagine having someone else in her place! She is so talented, sweet, punctual and professional; all things you want and need in a photographer! We love her and will be hiring her in the future for family portraits!

I'm a wedding & lifestyle photographer currently living in upstate New York and serving the greater tri-state area. I love photographing special moments between people and exploring new places, it's that simple. I'm also a huge yarn nerd, iced coffee addict and a lover of all things the color red. Let's connect - I'd love to hear from you!

Claire was amazing!! She is so sweet and personable, right from the very first email exchange. Her rates are very reasonable and transparent, and she even helped us customize a package that worked best for our wedding. We had two pre-wedding sessions to go over the details, list of photos needed, and all the logistics, and she was very accessible via email throughout the process. She emailed me two days before the wedding letting me know that she had scoped out the venue and the surrounding area to find good photo spots, which made the day of so much smoother. We did our formal photos before the ceremony, and she corralled the family and wedding party professionally and kindly. She kept our spirits up and she wasted no time. Her assistant was also very professional and friendly, and they collaborated so well to get maximum photos at every angle. Claire made sure we had plenty of time for just the grooms, various locations and poses, and we got to have fun and create some really unique shots! During the ceremony I didn't even register that she was in the room, and yet we have beautiful photos of the entire thing, so she did a great job of staying out of the way while also getting all of the important shots! Throughout the cocktail hour and reception Claire and her assistant split off to maximize coverage, but I felt that one of them was always close by for a good shot. They also pulled us to the balcony to catch some beautiful shots at sunset, and those were absolutely worth it! Throughout the evening, if I found myself dancing or talking with someone I hadn't gotten a picture with yet, I could easily gesture or call to them to get our picture, and they also got plenty of other action shots. We received a "sneak peek" of about 50 photos within 24 hours of our event, and the full set of photos within 2 months. She gave us the time we needed to finalize our photo album, and had it published very quickly. We are so glad we chose Claire, she captured our day perfectly and was such a pleasure to work with.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot say enough great things about Lindsay as our wedding photographer. She has such a talent for capturing emotion and truly telling the story of your wedding day through her photos. So many of her photos bring me right back to how I was feeling in those moments. She shoots a perfect blend of traditional portraits and the candid "in-between" memories. She captures details and moments that you never even realized she was there to catch. During the formal portraits she does a great job helping you feel comfortable and giving posing directions. However, I truly think she stands apart because of her ability to capture “real” moments and be discreet during parts of the day where she isn't explicitly giving direction, while still getting every aspect you could want (e.g. during the ceremony, dance floor, etc.). She has some angles of our ceremony that I still don’t know how she was able to capture them, we didn’t even notice she was right there! Her work truly speaks for itself. I am so very grateful that we chose her to photograph our wedding and that we have continued to work with her in the years since our wedding for our maternity, newborn and family photos. Lindsay has truly become a friend in the process of being our wedding photographer. I recommend her to all of my friends who are planning their weddings and I look forward to working with her in the future.

Matt and Nicole photographed our NYE wedding in the Catskills and they did a wonderful job! The pictures turned out beautifully. We were impressed with how quickly they were able to get our group photos done even though we had a big wedding party. This was especially appreciated since we opted for outdoor photos and it was cold! They were also very communicative throughout the process, including leading up to the wedding and during the wedding day. Despite our large wedding (185), they captured almost everyone in attendance in at least one picture. We know we’ll really appreciate that in the years to come as we continue to look back at the photos in our album.

When I’m not photographing amazing people, you'll find me hiking in the Hudson Valley with my family, brunching with my girlfriends, or planning my next vacation (mostly likely on a beach somewhere). I'm obsessed with warm weather, family gatherings, and sunsets. When it's chilly out, you'll find me with a hot cocoa in hand. If there's music on, it's likely country or throwback 80s jams. ALL people and love stories are welcome here!

Working alongside Debbie was a joy! I was a videographer to a wedding she was photographing. To the couple, Debbie was patient, calm, and professional throughout the day, and helped the couple not only stay at ease during some stressful moments, but also enjoy their wedding day amidst the hiccups. To myself and the other vendors, Debbie was collaborative, creative, and flexible to each of the fellow vendors specific needs for the day. Her photos from the wedding were authentic, timeless, and stunning! I would highly recommend Debbie Gander Photography to any couple looking for a photographer for their wedding!

I started in photography much as everyone else did. What was once a hobby in 2002 quickly became a passion. I started out with a 35mm film set up and would hang out in the city capturing candid moments of people going about their day to day lives. For me, it was like stepping outside the world around me and documenting it like looking through a window into a world I was no longer part of. In 2008, when I myself got married, I realized that a wedding day is one of the most emotional moments for a couple. Not only for them but for the families involved as well! It was Oct. 31st, 2008 when I shot my first wedding. I haven't looked back since.

My sister got married about a year ago and used Inspire me imagery, we had such a great experience it was a no brainer when I was planning my wedding! Lauren and her crew could not have been anymore amazing! I felt completely comfortable with her and took her lead on everything, the result were some pretty amazing photos we’ll be able to cherish forever! Shout out to Mediha and Jyoti for being a great addition to team! All smiles and there to lend a helping hand wherever needed The day started out a little shaky as most wedding days do(our wedding party was late to the venue) but once we got going we had the best time! Everyone was relaxed and having a great time, this crew captured some truly amazing and memorable moments! We’re struggling on which photos to hang up there’s so many good ones! Thank you Lauren for making our day even more special and for capturing some great moments for us to cherish! Hire these guys you will not regret it!

From busting my best moves on the dance floor, getting that wild uncle away from the bar for family formals, to making sure you feel like the baddest B in the room..I've got you!

Her work starts weeks/months before wedding day as she makes a point to get to know you, your vision, any pertinent family details and dynamics, and how she can capture not just our day but who you are. My now husband doesn't love being in front of the camera but she made him feel comfortable and at ease. She has a way of blending in perfectly while having a fun and calming presence that was very much needed. Dani's eye is amazing and our photos were romantic, fun, and stunning! We had a very unique wedding at a wildlife museum in update New York where everything was DIY. She noticed every detail and could read the room as well as our DJ. We are so grateful for her for helping us to embrace our special day and giving us memories through her photos that will last the rest of our lives.

I live with my amazing fiancé, Alex, and we have two kids who are way cooler than we are. We also have FIVE cats and two dogs. I'm always down for a coffee date if you want to chat wedding details or hiking trails. I always want your dog to come to your engagement sessions.

Booking Jen Pecka Photography for our wedding was one of the easiest and definitely one of the best decisions we made for our January wedding! From the moment we met, Jen made us feel super comfortable and confident in front of her camera. She shot both our engagement session as well as our big day and all of the photos came out absolutely GORGEOUS!!! She captured every single detail of our wedding beautifully. As we looked through our wedding photos for the first time, we were able to relive the best day of our lives. Jen not only captures special moments, but the genuine emotions of those being photographed. All of our photos are STUNNING, I am having a very difficult time choosing favorites to print and hang in our home. Trust Jen Pecka Photography to capture your wedding day, you will not regret it!

Hey there! I'm a candid wedding photographer based in the New York area. I can't help but feel lucky. I get to photograph one of the most important chapters in the love story of each and every of my clients. I get to spend the morning with my brides + their closest gal pals, tear up with the groom watching his soulmate walk down the aisle, and dance the night away with their closest family + friends. Basically, I have the best job ever.

I haven’t even gotten our photos back yet and I already have a rave review. Ellie was so sweet throughout the whole process and even my bridal party raved about her. She definitely made me feel comfortable and imo gave the exact amount of feedback when it came to posing.

For me, photography is not only an art, but an outlet. I have always been creative and there's something fulfilling about capturing beautiful images of days filled with love and emotion. I love capturing everyone's unique love story and being able to freeze moments and give them back to you in photographs.

When we first met her, we had initially planned to go with a different photographer, but her energy, is vibing, and herunderstanding of exactly what we wanted was unmatched, as well as her pricing, and what it included. She helped us through every step of the way and even on our wedding day when we didn’t have a long enough package she was flexible and left the wedding and then came back so that we could get our sunset photos. During our engagement shoot, we were having so much fun with the props that we didn’t end up getting romantic views that we wanted after a few hours and she scheduled another couple hour shoot for us to get the romantic photos that we wanted it by the end of the time working with her I would call her friend and I look forward to working with her in the future .

I did not not grow up with a camera in my hand knowing I wanted to be a photographer. I started with photography by photographing Punk/Hardcore bands but eventually stopped photographing those shows because I didn't want my camera gear to get broken by someone stagediving. Being apart of that music scene help me cultivate friendships with people all over the world, and gave me lots of travel opportunities. Those experiences carried over into weddings helping me understand real documentary style moments and being comfortable surrounded by new people.

Yaritza was amazing to work with! She was the best we could have asked for. So nice and considerate and just perfect for our wedding!

Capturing the perfect shot isn't just about clicking a button – it's about feeling the vibe of the room with finesse and a special eye. From directing family formals to wrangling tipsy groomsmen (hey, it happens!), I've got the knack for orchestrating those must-have photos. I also know when to step back and snag those authentic, unfiltered moments (like drunk groomsmen dancing!) that make your story complete.

I'm Alfa, a wedding, engagement, and portrait photographer in New Jersey and New York. My love for photography began years ago when I found myself taking as many candid shots of my then almost 90-year-old grandmother. I kept photographing every instance of her as if with each click of the camera I would extend her stay on this earth. When she was gone in 2008, I found myself with countless photos that brought back precious memories. It was at that point that I realized the power of photography as it allows us to have vivid memories and it also serves as a channel of connection between present and future generations.
