Tati And Roman

New York, NY
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,500
  • Serves Stony Brook, NY

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

We're so thrilled to share our exceptional experience with Tati and Roman Photography! From our intimate courthouse ceremony to our grand church wedding, spanning across a few months, they captured the essence of our love and celebration perfectly. Their artistic vision is a captivating blend of light, composition, and emotion. They have a unique ability to capture the essence of every moment, from the nervous anticipation of the first look to the unbridled joy of celebrating with loved ones. Each photo transcends a simple image; it becomes a story, a memory we can revisit and relive for years to come. But their talent doesn't stop at framing the perfect shot.They skillfully adjust lighting, enhance natural beauty, and achieve a timeless style that will never go out of fashion. At the risk of sounding overly enthusiastic, we were incredibly impressed with how Tati and Roman captured our natural beauty in the photos. The final product is simply breathtaking – a collection of heirloom-quality photographs that are a true joy to behold. Beyond their artistic brilliance, Tati and Roman made the entire experience effortless. They were incredibly responsive throughout the months leading up to the weddings, seamlessly coordinating logistics for both ceremonies. Their professionalism and genuine warmth put us at ease, allowing us to focus on enjoying the moment while they captured its essence. Their professionalism and genuine warmth made us feel comfortable and relaxed on both days. They seamlessly blended into the background, capturing candid moments without being intrusive. Our friends and family have been raving about the photos, highlighting the emotions and stories Tati and Roman were able to capture. We are so grateful to Tati and Roman for capturing the essence of our love story across two unforgettable ceremonies.

Yellow House Images and Video
Stony Brook, NY

When Andrew and Kathy were photojournalist their thief was story telling. As they got married and started a family, the focus shifted to their children and the couple used their creativity to tell a new story – first steps, trips to the park, birthdays. Soon, Andrew and Kathy began helping other couples tell their own stories, of engagements and weddings, babies and anniversaries. Those stories built the foundation of Yellow House Images. Today, Yellow House remains a family-run business but the family has grown.

Coram, NY
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000

My name is, yensy marquez Born in the Dominican Republic where I spent my early childhood before moving to the United States at the age of 5. I have always had love for the arts and music. I spent my teenage years drawing cartoons and Japanase manga. I discovered my love for photography during my late teenage years when I got my hands on my first cellphone with a camera. I was always the go to picture person during family events and gatherings. Though they were admittedly average at the time, everyone loved them and always encouraged me to get a real camera. I finally saved up for one and never looked back.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Yensy has been a very pleasant experience. He's able to connect with the flow of the photo shoot. He's polite, professional, and kind. He is also very good at making the client feel comfortable in front of the camera. Highly recommended!

Sayville, NY
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000

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.

My husband and I worked with Park Ave Studio for our photos as a part of our wedding package. Our photographer, Erica, was great! She got great shots of our guests and also took beautiful formal and artistic shots of us and our wedding party. We got over 30 teasers within a week of our wedding and then 1300 photos a few weeks later. The turnaround was impressive and the quality was great. The photographers are also really familiar with the venues they typically work with, which is a bonus in that they know all the good shots to take

Bohemia, NY
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $6,500

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 got married 8/11/23 and had the honor to have Mike capture our day with his second shooter Lauren. When I tell you they were IMMACULATE, it still feels like an understatement- they truly were the dream team. Everything about working with Mike was perfect- always prompt communication, answering questions (some not even photography related), got our timeline squared away exactly how we wanted it, and that’s all before we saw the absolutely stunnnnning photos he took (and got drenched in champagne for, sorry again!). We got over 130 teasers back and can’t even decide which of those are our favorites, I can only imagine how difficult it’ll be to choose once we have the full album! We knew from our engagement shoot that he would be our favorite vendor by far, and he completely exceeded all expectations. We are so grateful we booked Mike and would do it 10000x over again, and will for any future photography needs. THANK YOU MIKE & LAUREN, WE LOVE YOUUUU

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!

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"

My husband and I were so honored to have Elise as our photographer for our wedding. From our initial phone conversation, we immediately had such a good feeling about her and her work. Elise quickly proved that we had made the right choice and she far exceeded our expectations. Considering that we had our wedding during the pandemic, Elise helped to do what she could to make us comfortable the whole way through. She made the day considerably less stressful than it could have been and we will be forever grateful. She walked us through every step of the process and was eager to scope out the venue beforehand to get us the best possible shots. Elise was able to candidly capture the most precious moments of us and our families. The turnaround was very quick and we were so delighted with the results! Working with her was such a pleasure and I will continue to recommend her for any photo-worthy event.

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.

We started out as a team of street photographers roaming NYC on a daily/nightly basis with a goal of making a name for ourselves.

Having done a few of these weddings, we decided this was the route that we wanted to take our photography journey. Today, we are in our first full year of wedding photography and have secured a small amount for the year but are anxious to create more memories for happy couples. We capture FOREVER moments...

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. = )

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!

Finding the person you feel comfortable with around you and your closest loved ones on a momentous day is a huge decision. Thalia is the person you want to capture your day. Thalia guided me, my bridesmaids and my family from the moment she arrived to make sure we were on schedule, happy, comfortable, and enjoying the day. Her professionalism, calming and warm personality, and talent are exactly what I needed on my wedding day. Prior to the wedding Thalia made sure we had a shot list if everything we wanted and made sure our vision would come to life through her work. Her organization and communication made working with her stress free. My biggest regret is not having her stay the whole night. Do yourself a favor and hire your photographers and videographers for the whole length of the event! Im so so glad we found her!

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).

Working with Chrysa was an absolute dream. She made space for her and I to connect and explore creatively in such a beautiful way that allowed me to feel comfortable and at ease the entire time. I have struggled in the past to find boudoir photographers that capture such a soft feminine essence and Chrysa truly delivered here. I can not wait to create more work with her in the future

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

We were fortunate enough to have Randell as our wedding photographer and videographer as I just stumbled to find him in a local wedding facebook group and without a doubt, he is THE BEST! From the moment we met him, it was evident that his professionalism and passion for his craft set him apart. His efficiency on the big day was truly remarkable. He seamlessly blended into the background, ensuring he captured every significant moment without being intrusive. His ability to organize group shots and direct us for those perfect candid moments showcased his experience and expertise. Now, let's talk about the photos - they are nothing short of spectacular! The only "problem" Randell presented us with was making every single photo look so incredible that it's nearly impossible to choose our favorites! As an artist myself, to me each image is a work of art, reflecting his keen eye for detail and a deep understanding of lighting and composition. Randell not only delivered on capturing the essence of our wedding day but exceeded our expectations. His creativity and skill turned ordinary moments into extraordinary memories. We are beyond grateful for his dedication and the timeless images he has given us to cherish for a lifetime. If you're in search of a wedding photographer who not only meets but exceeds expectations, look no further than Randell. He's not just a photographer; he's an artist who turns your special day into a visual masterpiece. Thank you, Randell, for making our wedding day truly unforgettable!

We hired Shelby for our wedding in Brooklyn and undoubtedly made the best choice for photographer. She was professional, communicative, and obviously talented (her work speaks for itself!) We chose one of her higher packages that included a second photographer so we could have our groomsmen and bridesmaids both photographed getting ready at separate locations. Throughout the event, she was like a fly on the wall, and captured so many amazing moments without us even taking notice. When our guests engaged with her, she was fun and interactive. In the end, her photos somehow turned out better than we expected, clearly illustrating her talent and attention to detail.

From the very first wedding I shot, I knew I was onto something. And ever since then, I haven't looked back.

When we first started searching for a photographer, we were struck by Kim's ability to capture the genuine emotion in each and every photograph. We were lucky enough to work with Kim for both an engagement session and our wedding. Spending your wedding day with Kim is like spending the day with one of your best friends. Her warmth and sense of humor instantly makes you feel comfortable. She captured our day exactly how we experienced it. Kim seamlessly fit in with our families and friends. She even worked pure magic on our 3 flower girls and ring bearer (all under the age of 5!!).

But more importantly I am a wedding, lifestyle and adventure elopement photographer based out of NYC. Weddings and elopements are one of my passions because witnessing love and marriage is one of the most beautiful things we can witness. When shooting with me, expect to have tons of fun and lots of laughs because I like to be weird! Life is too short to be normal! I photograph all types of love.

Jaci was INCREDIBLE. We found her on Zola and fell in love with her work. From start to finish she was easy to communicate with, understood our vision, and was very personable. We didn't want any pictures that were too posed or awkward, which I knew was going to be hard because I am so awkward in photos, but somehow we look amazing in every single one. We are going to treasure these photos forever and I am so thankful that we chose Jaci to be our photographer.

Jason is incredible. He is a talented photographer and storyteller, and a great business person to boot! He is exactly who you want your friends and family to interact with your wedding day. I would highly recommend him to any person looking to capture the essence of their wedding day and of their beloved family and friends. Regarding the business perspective: my partner and I planned our wedding from afar and from the start Jason was responsive and easy to work with. I admire that he didn’t pressure us on hurrying to book the way other photographers did and he made the time to connect with us. He was also able to process photos quickly and with high quality. Regarding the photos: we purchased his engagement and wedding day package and I could not be happier and think he was priced very competitively. My partner and I had previously had engagement photos done with another vendor and their quality was not even comparable to Jason’s. Because of Jason’s photo journalistic nature and our desire to avoid a lot of staged poses Jason built a beautiful story of us and our engagement and wedding day. His photos are striking, surprising, and beautiful. He captured heartfelt moments that I did not see during our wedding, too. Our friends and family are in love with the photos that we have shared with them and we are so honored to have had Jason capture our wedding day. I cannot wait to look at these photos for years to come and relive our wedding day!

Crissy and her assistant, Lisa, were INCREDIBLE! We received the 800+ photos back from our wedding, tried to narrow it down to ‘just’ the ones we absolutely loved, and still had over 300+ photos in our favorites album! Crissy has actually been our wedding photographer for three years. You see, we initially booked way back in 2019 for a 2020 wedding, which was postponed multiple times due to lockdown. We knew rescheduling would be a hassle but we were determined to find a date that specifically worked for Crissy because of the amazing experience that we had during our engagement shoot. I’d like to share a few points that really made Crissy and Lisa stand out to us: * Incredible flexibility and organization. We had postponed 2 years, but Crissy was so willing to work with us as we rescheduled 3 times to find a date when we could safely celebrate. She had all of our original paperwork years later, and when the 2022 date drew close, we were able to resume conversations as no time had passed. * Such a FUN and easygoing attitude! My husband and I are complete goofballs, who did not make it easy for Crissy & team to pose us in romantic ways. We were constantly giggling, but Crissy found a way to highlight the glee and quirkiness in a way that still captured the love in our hearts and eyes. * If you feel awkward taking pictures, then Lisa and Crissy are completely the right pair for you. Lisa realized very quickly that I just do not know what to do with my hands and gave me very specific instructions on where to place them. It was such a relief to have that extra bit of instruction done in a way that was still playful and never patronizing. * We had a lot of last-minute changes with family photos, and Crissy was easily able to revise on the fly. * GREAT WITH DOGS! Of course, our pup had to be included in some of our photos, and Crissy (a dog lover herself!) was able (at our request) to make our pup a centerpiece of our engagement photos. * Crissy and Lisa felt like part of the wedding party. We laughed with them the entire time and just had a complete blast. They put us at ease, and in doing so were able to capture genuine smiles. * The pictures are gorgeous. We are struggling to narrow it down to just a few to send to family and friends. We loved so many photos that we specifically bought a digital frame to display them all alongside some printed ones. We chose Crissy based on a fabulous recommendation from a friend, and I will be passing that same recommendation on to everyone I know. Crissy is fabulous, able to handle even the most quirky families & friends, and captures the moments where you were having too much fun to even realize pictures were happening. A huge thank you to Crissy and Lisa for making our special day one that we can always remember.

My heart burns with a fierce and undeniable love for photography. It's a passion that runs deep, rooted in the belief that every image has the power to speak to the soul and evoke emotions that can't be put into words. My love for capturing moments behind the lens encompasses all aspects of life. It's these moments of raw and genuine connection that ignite my soul and drive my creativity. Because to me, a photograph is not just about being aesthetically pleasing or technically perfect. It's about capturing the essence of a moment, the emotions that can't be replicated, and the stories waiting to be told.

Working with Dominique was an amazing experience, from our initial inquiry to the delivery of our final gallery. Dominique was very sweet, professional and organized, which made it so that my fiancé and I didn't have to stress over anything. She took a genuine interest in getting to know us and our love story, so that our photos would reflect who we are as a couple. Thanks to her help, our photo timeline worked out perfectly with the timeline of our wedding day events. We are absolutely in love with our galleries and love the creative overlap that we were able to achieve. Dominique made us feel really comfortable in front of the camera, which resulted in natural and genuine photos. We had mentioned that detail shots were important to us, and Dominique captured them beautifully. We are beyond happy with our decision to hire Dominique and are excited to have these gorgeous photos to look back on forever. Thank you so much!

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.

I had the pleasure of working alongside Eugene Krasnaok and I must say that his work left a lasting impression on me. Eugene's photography skills are truly exceptional, and his ability to capture the essence of the wedding was remarkable. He was cooperative, communicative, and his collaborative spirit made the overall wedding experience more enjoyable for everyone involved.

As a passionate artist with a keen eye for detail, I specialize in capturing love stories that are as fiery and unforgettable as they are authentic and beautiful. With my unique blend of creativity and technical expertise, I bring every couple’s vision to life in a way that is dynamic, vibrant, and truly unforgettable. In short, I’m not just a wedding photographer and filmmaker – I’m an artist who specializes in creating fiery and unforgettable love stories.

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!

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!

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.

I’ve worked alongside Anj and let me tell you she is so detailed in her work, posing instructions, capturing the details and just making your wedding day special. You can be relaxed and enjoy your day knowing Anj has got it under control. Highly recommended!

Coral was amazing to work with! We had the pleasure of getting to know her when we booked her last-minute to take some photos of my good friends' small backyard ceremony in 2018. When my husband and I later got engaged, we knew we had to book Coral to capture our own planned festivities for June 2020. When 2020 rolled around and it became apparent that we had to scrap most of our original plans, we couldn't have asked for a better partner than Coral. Her flexibility and encouragement during what was a crazy time for everyone kept us sane. We unfortunately nixed all of our other vendors with the changes we made, but kept Coral because we knew we wanted her there to capture whatever our day turned out to be. Coral captured beautiful photos of our two(!) wedding/reception dates and we are so glad to have those treasured photos. She's incredibly easy to work with and made everyone feel so comfortable, especially as my family and I don't get in front of the camera very often. We can't recommend Coral enough!

And boy did I hit the jackpot with Mina! Her skills are INCREDIBLE. Our photos are absolutely stunning and I’ve received so many compliments. Not only that but we received our photos so quickly.

New York, NY
  • Photojournalistic style

  • Serves Stony Brook, 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.

My wife and I decided to go the conservative route and have a small wedding w/ reception dinner at a restaurant. However, based on our wedding photo sneak peaks that Jamaal provided after; you would think it was a bigger wedding that what it actually was! Which is exactly what we wanted.

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!

I can't say enough good things about Mary. She had such a great energy about her during the entire wedding day. She kept me calm and distracted when things went a lil awry Mary was able to make me smile and got beautiful photos. Best decision was to hire her. Not only were the photos so amazing the turn around to getting the photos was super quick. Hire her! She even ran up and down the streets of downtown LA to get some really cool photos."

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!

I don’t even know where to begin. Karen is an absolute gem. Our elopement was a bit tricky as we had to move to a different state for my husbands job- causing us to start from scratch. But Karen didn’t miss a beat. She researched and sent us a list of so many wonderful locations which ultimately led us to picking our dream spot. We never felt overwhelmingly stressed during this process as Karen was always there to assist us in anything! She called our venue for details, sent me ideas and inspiration, purchased a pop up tent just so I could change into my gown in the middle of the desert! She is a rockstar! You can truly see her passion through her beautiful work, she makes you feel so at ease and comfortable! If you have a few moments to spare, I would so appreciate it!

Awarded Best of Zola
They are the sweetest folks to work with. We had always wanted a video package but could not find an affordable option. Billy and Miss Cheryl did BOTH! We got photos and videos for two days and they even live streamed our wedding to our family overseas. Billy's photos are insane gorgeous and Cheryl's video captured everything we had dreamed of. 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.
