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! 🙂

We worked with Jon for our civil wedding photos in Brooklyn Heights and couldn't be happier with the whole process. From the moment we got in touch with him for the first time until the handoff of all the photos, the experience was seamless. His extremely organised work methodology made everything smooth and easy. We spent two hours with him walking around Brooklyn Heights and DUMBO, and the result was a great variety of photos. Jon's got a special eye for lighting, composition and editing. On top of everything, his personality while working made it possible for us to act natural in front of the camera. 100% recommend working with him.

Hello, I'm Elsie. I'm a New York based photographer with a passion to capture people’s stories in the right light. Like any relationship, we have to vibe. I want us both to be comfortable and excited to work with each other because that’s what you deserve from a photographer. I love margaritas, my house plants, and my dog Arthur. I'm a phenomenal cook, and love bringing people together.

My husband and I worked with her last year for our engagement photos and it couldn't have been an easier process! We were able to book a date with her and she was flexible to change because our original date was going to be raining and our shoot was out door. We took moody bar photos and I loved every single shot! We also finished up in Prospect Park and those were equally amazing and romantic. We ended up using shots from each place in our save the dates and invitations! She made us feel comfortable to work with her. From that we were comfortable being in front of the camera. I look forward to working with her again!

Leanne Gelish Studio

5.0

East Meadow, NY
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,200

Welcome to Leanne Gelish Studio! I am a wedding photographer on Long Island, New York who specializes in capturing real moments in an artistic way. A born story-teller, I believe your wedding day should be captured like a story. After all, it’s the love story you always wanted and it’s worth remembering the little details.

My husband and I had a fairytale courtship. We started dating in February of 2019 and were engaged by June. We both felt a lot of stress and pressure from both sides of our family as soon as we announced our engagement. We decided that we wanted our wedding day to be just about us, and we would do a reception later on that would include our family and friends. We were engaged on Sunday June 9th and by Monday I was scouting the internet for photographers. I’m not from Long Island, so I’m not familiar with vendors here. However, being the daughter of two photographers, I knew that the most important part of my wedding (besides the bride & groom) was the pictures. I reached out to so many photographers and no one was the right fit. We were under a time crunch, so some weren’t available on short notice. I wanted my pictures taken with a Nikon camera, not all vendors are loyal to that brand. Then I found Leanne. Not only were her pictures GORGEOUS, she took pictures with a Nikon, and she was available! Under her excellent guidance, I reached out to the local town hall and secured our wedding date 7/12/19. Leanne was up for the challenge of taking pictures of a couple she had never met at a wedding in just over a month. Over the course of that month she made us feel so comfortable. She had so many beautiful and creative portraits planned, and also listened to all of the images I wanted. We asked her to be our witness at the wedding ceremony. It just felt right. The day of the wedding was beyond anything I had ever imagined. Leanne (having never met me) jumped right into action when I was in the middle of a wardrobe malfunction. She then expertly guided us through portraits before, during, and after the ceremony. She gave us the space to enjoy our day and captured our love in such a stunning way. We went to a lovely park after the ceremony for more portraits. We took breaks here and there and unbeknownst to us, she captured those candid, intimate moments that we shared. Those pictures are some of my favorites. My husband isn’t as comfortable in front of the camera as I am, but Leanne was so wonderful in helping him pose and stand in ways that didn’t feel super awkward to him. She even got him up in a tree! We both have that picture as our background on our phones. I really feel like Leanne went above and beyond what I had envisioned. She gave me all of the images I requested, and also made them her own using smoke bombs and prisms and really unique poses. Two and a half years later, Leanne is the only person we trust with taking our pictures. She has also become a close friend of ours. She is the most talented photographer, and we are so lucky that she was the one to capture our special day!

In the 20 years that I've been photographing professionally, I’ve honed my skill of knowing when to step in and make things happen, and when to step back and simply *allow* things to happen. Documenting the REAL emotion of the day is how we capture those picture-perfect moments. They happen organically, not by force, and I promise you: we're not going to miss ANY of them. = )

Awarded Best of Zola
We absolutely loved working with Christopher and team. No moment was missed at our wedding. All memories were captured, even the ones less obvious but perhaps closest to the heart. Christopher has a way of beautifully portraying people. We felt that our personalities as well as our families and guests' shined through in the images. Perhaps that is because we felt so comfortable around him. Christopher seamlessly integrates himself into the day and gained our trust immediately. Highly recommended!

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.

As someone who's been in the wedding industry for almost a decade, it can be challenging to find other vendors who are aligned with my business mission of inclusion and community, embraces creativity, and is a joy to hang out with. And Justin literally checks every box. He's a leader in the industry- everywhere I look I see him turning up, making space for people, encouraging and lifting them up. He's the real deal, and has the biggest heart. I happily consider Justin as more than just a "friendor," but someone who makes my life (and the world) brighter.

From the moment we discovered Stephanie through Zola, we knew we had found someone special to capture the moments leading up to our wedding day. Her warmth, professionalism, and exceptional talent made our photography journey a joy. Choosing Stephanie for our engagement photos, welcome party, and wedding day was easy. Her prompt, detailed responses, and extensive portfolio showcasing her blend of candid, documentary-style, and portrait photography solidified our trust in her to capture our intimate wedding celebration. Stephanie’s flexibility and accommodating nature were evident from the start, adapting seamlessly to changes like a rain backup date and offering valuable insights on locations, outfits, and shooting times. Her eye for optimal settings, creative backgrounds, and her considerate approach reflected her commitment to delivering the best possible photographs. She effortlessly incorporated our extensive group photo wish list, capturing various combinations of family and friends while maintaining her signature style. Her meticulous planning, note-taking, and venue scouting ensured she was well-prepared for the multiple locations, diverse lighting conditions, and different rooms throughout our wedding weekend. Our engagement session not only provided an opportunity to get comfortable in front of the camera but also served as an introduction to Stephanie's chill and friendly personality. She effortlessly captured the casual essence of our relationship, creating a natural and relaxed atmosphere that carried through our wedding weekend. Stephanie's dedication shone brightly during our welcome party, where she artfully mingled with our guests, ensuring every significant moment was documented. Her ability to capture candid and natural interactions, especially among family and friends meeting for the first time, added immeasurable value to our wedding memories. On our wedding day, Stephanie skillfully captured spontaneous moments during the ceremony, including a few surprises that added to the overall enjoyment of the day. We were delighted that she could portray the lively reactions of our guests during these unexpected moments. From the early setup to the late-night dance floor light trails, Stephanie's genuine enthusiasm added to the fun and magic of our celebration. And, of course, her skill in tying the perfect square knot on the bride's dress was much appreciated. Stephanie's attention to detail and dedication to capturing finer elements truly stood out. Documenting everything from florals to table décor, furnishings, food, and beverages allowed us to cherish these details forever. Despite our busy timeline, Stephanie's keen eye noticed small yet meaningful nuances, and her photos became invaluable memories. What sets Stephanie apart is not just her stunning photos but the entire experience she provides. From dependability and organizational skills to the fun and ease she brings, Stephanie is more than a photographer; she's a wonderful person. Her ability to document unique moments, combined with a seamlessly organized online gallery, exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend Stephanie to anyone seeking a photographer who not only captures breathtaking moments but also enhances the entire experience with her warmth, professionalism, and creativity. Stephanie played an integral role in making our wedding weekend unforgettable, and we are forever grateful for the beautiful memories she has preserved for us.

Awarded Best of Zola
Where do I even begin? The short of it is that Eddie has given my husband and me incredible, breathtaking engagement and wedding photos that we will cherish for the rest of our lives!!! He first shot our engagement shoot and on top of being such an incredible person to work with and offering such a beautiful, fun vibe to energize our shoot with, his photos are UNBELIEVABLE. We were truly speechless when we saw our engagement photos and would not allow anyone but him to shoot our wedding day. Our wedding photos could not have possibly come out more amazing. I cried when I saw how beautiful they came out, and of course, how he managed to intricately capture the essence of our special day full of love and celebrations. AN EYE FOR PHOTOGRAPHY LIKE NO OTHER: My husband and I first met Eddie on our engagement shoot. My husband (like so many men), was feeling awkward before he even got in front of the camera. But the second we met Eddie, his vibe instantly loosened him up and he was able to capture the most sensational photos. He's patient, funny, kind, and has such a talent for capturing every type of photo there is (candids, portraits, artsy aesthetics, etc.) THE BEST ENERGY: He was exactly the type of energy you want from a photographer and brought his same beautiful energy from start to finish on our wedding day. So much so, that to this day my friends still rant about how amazing he was to be around and how he set such a fun tone for my wedding day. My husband and I have been part of countless weddings where the photographers are pushy, annoying, and ruin the vibe, so it was incredibly important for us to have someone with the right energy, and clearly, we strongly felt we found that in Eddie. I cannot count the number of times someone has 1. asked me who my photographer was, 2. how many times people have complimented how incredible both our engagement and wedding photos are 3. MOST IMPORTANTLY: how many of my friends went on to hire him for their own special occasions (from everything from engagement shoots, weddings, rehearsal dinners, etc.) In fact, my friend who hired him to shoot her rehearsal dinner (she had already booked her wedding photographer before my wedding), said that her one wedding regret was not hiring Eddie for her wedding. She still says to this day that her rehearsal dinner photos that Eddie shot came out better than her "high-end" wedding day photos. BOTTOM LINE: My husband and I have found not only a photographer for all of our special occasions to come in life from our connection with Eddie, but we've also found someone we consider a dear friend. He has genuinely become a very special person to us as a couple, our families, and our friends. His work is beyond dependable, his communication is reliable to the utmost degree, and while his prices are incredibly fair (especially for his incredible talent & aesthetic), I truly feel his work is PRICELESS.

Our editing and style depends. Very easygoing and flexible depending on the client's preference. Our team is dedicated in delivering memories.

We decided to do a last minute baby moon in the Miami area. I wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to get a photoshoot. However, I was a bit worried about finding a photographer on short notice, especially between Christmas and New Years. I reached out to several photographers and Ledd Lens was the only company that promptly responded, replying to me within ten minutes, From the very start of our conversation, Andre was exceptionally professional, responsive, and approachable. He was very flexible with my last minute request and accommodating to my asks. I knew right away that he would be a fantastic choice. When the day came the weather did not cooperate and Andre was able to flex his schedule to a time that was not rainy, which was much appreciated. He assured me that this would be a positive experience regardless of the weather. And the photo shoot went fantastic! His ability to choreograph and capture a scene is unparalleled. You could feel the enthusiasm and passion he has for his work, and that is reflected in the final product. Andre did a great job of quickly editing and delivering the photos. We absolutely love how they turned out and cannot recommend Andre and Ledd Lens enough!

I got married during covid, which means I had a whole wedding planned prior to the world ending, and then had to replan a whole different wedding in 30 days. Marybeth was the photographer we booked for the wedding day that actually happened. She took the dreamiest photos of a day I could never have imagined. She caught moments that I’ll treasure forever and made a really stressful time that much easier with her professionalism, great communication, patience, and eagerness to capture our wedding day. I can’t sing her praises enough. Your memories are safe in her hands!

I can't say enough great things about NJ Wedding Studio! Frank was so easy to work with and our photographer, Daniel, is GREAT at what he does! When I first reached out to Frank, he responded back right away with pricing and everything I might need to know. We scheduled a phone conference to talk more about what my husband and I were looking for. Right away, I got the sense that Frank was so organized and knew what he was doing. Throughout the entire process, Frank was answering our questions promptly and never left us in the dark. We scheduled an engagement photo session with Daniel and couldn't have been happier! I'm personally not comfortable in front of the camera, but Daniel posed us throughout the entire session and made us feel very at ease. Daniel was also very easy to work with. We got our photos back EARLY in color and black and white. The quality was amazing and they turned out beautiful. On our wedding day, Daniel was prompt and got started with the photos right away. He followed what my husband and I wanted to capture, as well as other photos I wouldn't have even thought to take. He arrived at 1pm and was with us until 11pm. He captured us getting ready, first look, group shots, ceremony and party shots. We got a sneak peek not even 24 hours later and to say they looked amazing is an understatement! We received all of our pictures 3 weeks later and enjoyed looking at them together. Not a single moment was missed. Thank you, NJ Wedding Studio, for being apart of our dream wedding!

Kathryn was so great to work with! I am overly easy-going and did not have a clear idea of what I wanted for photos for my engagement and wedding, but once I saw Kathryn's photos from other events I was sure I wanted her! Her photos show so much personality and are so vibrant, she gave me a sneak peak of the wedding photos just days after the wedding and it got me so excited to see the rest and made me 100% sure I chose the right photographer for my 'big day'. She came up to Humboldt County, CA for our engagement shoot and we did an adventure style session, we hiked all around the College Cove forest and beach and she had both my husband and I feeling very comfortable in front of the camera (neither of us usually would be). The photos came out so beautifully and there are so many to chose from and love. Her assistant was also great! My wedding was pretty un-organized but everything came together so perfectly at the end. She was very understanding when my payment had to come in small portions as well because my Zelle app wasn't working properly. Pretty much all I told her was that I wanted 90% candid in the moment photos and just a few family portraits on top of our couple portraits. I was very grateful that all I had to do was give her a few sentences of what I knew I wanted and she gave her all to give me what I wanted and more! I would 100% chose her over and over again to photograph our events!

My education in fine art trained me to observe and see the beauty in the everyday. This background guides me to not only capture authentic moments, but gave me a curated eye and ability to document the personality of couples and the spirit of their love celebrations.

Hannah's photography is magical! My fiancé and I did an engagement shoot with her in Central Park, and despite the early hours and super hot weather, Hannah was personable, kind, and so much fun to work with! We were so lucky to have been recommended her by a friend, and found that the entire experience was seamless--she knew tons of hidden gems in the park to take us, provided a guide in advance to take the stress out of finding something to wear, and the whole thing flew by so quickly! Within weeks we had the full album of photos and I am STILL in awe at how amazing they turned out! We can't thank Hannah enough and I definitely recommend her to anyone looking for natural, artistic and beautiful photography.

Kim at Craven and Co. did far more than take unbelievable photos of our wedding day (though I'll get to that as well). I had no idea that a photographer could do so much to add to the energy of our overall experience. She caught the most touching details that I would have never thought to mention--from getting ready to the final moments walking away from our after party--as well as managed the group photo portion of the day brilliantly. Most importantly, Kim is wonderful at making everyone feel at ease so she can capture the true energy of the wedding. She knows weddings inside and out and knows how to be at the right place at the right time. Logistically, she was quick, easy to contact, and amazing at compiling images that told the full story of the experience. I still have people asking me who our photographer was and we have many of the photos framed in our home. I would recommend Craven and Co. to any couple!

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

I don’t have enough words to describe how much we love Lauren! We were recommended by a friend to Lauren for our wedding in 2017. We had met with 8 (yes eight!!) photographers before Lauren and from the minute we sat down with her, we knew she was special. Her attention to detail and care about us and our family was exceptional. I don’t even really remember seeing my own wedding planner more than twice on my wedding day but Lauren was there every second keeping me calm and making sure I was ready for every moment of the day and night. A few weeks after our wedding, we received our photos and my husband and i cried tears of joy looking through the best day of our lives. Your wedding is the fastest day of your life and to be able to relive it from the outside through these amazing photos was the best gift we could receive. Since 2017, we have used Lauren for ALL of our family shoots for holidays and special occasions. We will never look elsewhere. Do yourself a favor and contact Lauren! It will be the best decision you will ever make for your wedding!!

As a wedding officiant, I had the pleasure of meeting and working with King on a beach destination (the couple are Canadians) wedding. It was a crazy, blustery day on the beach but King was a total pro, taking time before the ceremony, to go over my normal movements and special moments that the couple had planned. Afterwards, he even prepared - less than a week later - a small gallery of ceremony moments just for me, emailing me a link and permission to use. The photos were fabulous! I had taken a few with my iPhone - and while I knew his would be better, his totally blew me away. I can't wait to work with Journeys Photography 941 again!

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 and his wife, Taylor, are truly a dream to work with! My husband and I really wanted some simple engagement photos taken, but were reluctant because we’re not totally comfortable in front of the camera and didn’t want the poses/photos to look cheesy. Taylor gave us plenty of suggestions to pose us naturally and kept us laughing which put us at ease immediately.

Edward was amazing from the beginning when we booked him for our wedding and engagement photos. He has such an eye for detail and light--and certainly did not disappoint on our big day! He takes his craft seriously and while my husband and I didn't realize how important the photos were as we were taking them, we were so impressed and grateful we took all of Edward's direction and the extra time for a few more shots. We had our NYC wedding in St. Patrick's Cathedral with photos in Central Park and he knows exactly what to do for each of these places for the best photos.

A dad, a son, a brother and a jack of all trades musician that loves to rock out any chance I get. I grew up in New York City. My inclination towards photography came from classic street photography and photojournalists from all over the world that told their stories through a lens. It made me pick up a camera and start shooting. Now, living in Maryland I shoot all sorts of stories and moments locally, domestically, and abroad. It's taken me a while to figure out what my "thing" is but I've come to figure out that I'm a milestone photographer. The moments your life that have proven to be meaningful -- I'll be there.

Sam has been a videographer at a wedding that I photographed before. It's so hard sometimes to communicate and mesh well with other vendors while working a wedding where there are so many moving parts and a timeline to stick to. Sam made that part easy! We got on the same page quickly and helped each other with shots the others wanted to get. Never got into each other's way and the entire day, start to finish it ran smoothly. I wish all videographers worked this well with fellow vendors. Makes the couples experience even better!

John shot both our engagement session earlier this year and then our wedding this past September and I could not say enough great things about him and my photographs!! John was kind, wonderful to work with and incredibly creative when it comes to getting the best artistic photos. He has great instincts and not only captured our big day beautifully but really showed off our personalities as well. I think one aspect John excels in is making sure he captures those precious moments in those natural candid times that my now husband and I were just enjoying being together not worrying about posing and smiling for the camera. As beautiful as our portraits are, some of those natural photos turned out to be my absolute favorites!!!!! Our photos from both sessions turned perfect and both my husband and I would recommend John and his team to anyone in need of a great artistic mphotographer!

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!

One of the most important aspects of a photo is the emotion it conveys. While I have years of training and experience, photographing love cannot be reduced to lighting and angles. ​ Well before your special day. I hear my client's love story. This helps me create eye-catching images that portray the kind of affection that is unique to each couple. I pride myself in being a storyteller-photographer.

From the moment we first met Anj, we knew we were in good hands. Her warm personality and creative vision made us feel comfortable and confident, which reflected beautifully in our wedding photographs. Anj’s creative direction and knack for marrying our ideas with her unique perspective brought a new level of richness and depth to our photos. She captured the essence and energy of our wedding day with an extraordinary attention to detail, freezing the fleeting moments of joy, laughter, and love for us to cherish forever. Perhaps one of the most memorable experiences was the impromptu post-wedding photo shoot in the ocean. Dressed in our wedding attire amidst the crashing waves, we felt like we were in a fairytale, and the photos came out stunning, to say the least! It was an idea that could only have come from a true artist like Anj, who pushes boundaries to create unforgettable moments. Anj’s professionalism shone through in every step of the process. She delivered the meticulously edited photos in a timely manner and maintained open and constant communication, keeping us updated and at ease. In short, Anj didn’t just photograph our wedding; she crafted a beautiful narrative of our special day. We cannot recommend her highly enough. If you want a friendly, imaginative, and reliable photographer who can turn your moments into memories, look no further than Anj.

You know those first few months that you fall in love & everything is so wonderful & terrifying & just so damn GOOD? It's that “new love” feeling & I’ve never been able to replicate that feeling with anything else, except photography. Your wedding day tells the story of your love. From that “new love” to the more comfortable kind, it is the culmination of all those moments leading up to “I do.” I consider myself the narrator of that day, telling that story and documenting your connection through my photographs.

Jenny is an absolutely wonderful person and amazing photographer. So kind, friendly, organized and talented. She is a pleasure to work with always. She listens to your needs, guides you through the process, and delivers work that showcases all of the love and fun of your day.

I am a documentary-style photographer with a passion for visual storytelling. With my fly-on-the-wall approach, your images will be an authentic, honest reflection of your love. When you look back at your photos, I want you to remember the laughs, the tears, and the moments spent with your beloveds - rather than having your photo taken. It is my joy and honor to capture this momentous day of your lives. If my style aligns with what you are looking for in a wedding photographer, let's connect and create magic together!

Stop searching for a photographer- you found the right one! Mary was so amazing to work with. She did our engagement shots as well as our “first” wedding (we had a Covid wedding). I was so happy with everything that she did. Mary is fun, creative and knows how to capture the spirit of the day. Her style is soft and romantic and she does not over-edit the final product. I really cannot say enough good things about her. You will not regret hiring Mary!

I've been an elopement and intimate wedding photographer for the last 12 years and have been honored to capture hundreds of couples in love. I'm fortunate enough to capture elopements and destination wedding all around the world, but have a home base in Savannah, GA and New York, New York and bounce around the east coast capturing love stories. Here's what you can expect from me: I’ll guide you through the entire process from start to finish, help you plan a day that feels like you and your partner, and give you tangible memories that make your heart skip a beat. I'm quirky, quick with a joke, and turn my couples into dear friends!

We had the privilege of working with Karen on the day of our elopement and I cannot express enough how grateful we are for her incredible talent and dedication. From the moment we started discussing my elopement, she exhibited a level of professionalism that immediately put me at ease. Working with her was so much fun. She brought a positive energy and enthusiasm to my day, making the entire experience enjoyable. Her creativity and passion for her craft shone through, and it made a significant impact on the overall atmosphere of the day. Karen' dedication and creativity turned my wedding day into a series of magical moments, and I am beyond grateful for the phenomenal photos that now immortalize those cherished memories. If you're looking for a photographer who not only has exceptional skills but also adds a touch of joy to your special day, look no further. Karen is an absolute gem, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking a photographer who can turn moments into everlasting memories!

I highly recommend them to everyoone wanting a amazing wedding.

Relive the moments as you experienced them. When it comes to your wedding, what are you most excited about? The ceremony? Dancing the night away with family and friends? Indulging in the emotion of the day? The photos are important so you can relive each memorable moment. But the moments are only memorable if you take the time to experience them in the first place. This way, you'll not only experience the moments of your wedding day - you'll remember them well. Who better to photograph your experiences than a husband and wife team who understands the importance of this day. And the moments that shape it.

Celebrating the wholeness of life and the perfection of love I truly ask you to "stay gold"! My beautiful clients are couples of all genders, orientation, and identities who have found each other and want this moment in time captured in heirloom quality. We leave the churches and the hotels and venture into wild world, up the mountains, to the islands, into the forests, and out into the deserts. Stay Gold Tyler delivers stunning portraits, family heirloom formals, and b-roll candids that will have you laughing and "aww"ing for a lifetime. Tyler splits time between South Florida, New York City, and Seattle.

Tyler was amazing to work with! He captured every beautiful moment of our wedding day and the photos are such wonderful reminders of one of the very happiest days of our lives. He spent thoughtful time with us before our big day to get to know us and to make sure that we got the shots we were hoping for. Not only did we have a ton of fun with Tyler, but he took photos that are incredible and captured so many special moments. All of our guests loved him too – so much so that two of our friends couldn’t wait to hire him for their own wedding a year later!
