New York, NY
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,500
  • Serves Staten Island, 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! 🙂

Awarded Best of Zola
We absolutely loved working with Tati and Roman!! We knew that we wanted to work with them immediately after our first conversation with Tati. Having two photographers was a key differentiator for us because we knew that it would allow us to capture all of the important moments from our wedding day. Tati and Roman are both so genuinely warm, kind, and very easy to work with. They were quick to respond to all of our questions leading up to our wedding and also helped us organize our day-of-timeline in a way that allowed us to get all of the photos that we wanted while also providing us with plenty of time to be present and have fun with friends and family. Tati and Roman made us and all of our friends and family feel comfortable when taking photos and provided guidance when needed to ensure that we got the perfect shots. We were blown away when we got our wedding photos and are so happy with how they turned out! Tati and Roman captured all of the beautiful and authentic moments from that night and you can feel the love that was in the room. We cannot thank Tati and Roman enough and are so happy that we were able to work with them.

We hired Flo as our wedding photographer and as part of the package an engagement session was included. The engagement photos were so much fun to take, and we were so grateful to Flo for her inclusion of our Great Dane, Jerry. Our experience with Flo and her team leading up to and on the day of our wedding was exceptional! Prior to the big day, she was communicative and very helpful when it came to coordinating our timeline. On the day of, she and her team arrived ready and in great spirits, which enhanced the festive mood of the day. Flo made us feel at ease throughout all the group photos and made a point to capture the most lovely sunset photos of just the two of us. Looking through our gallery we are transported right back to the day of the event as she and her team did a wonderful job of capturing us, our guests, and all the little details in between. Image our shock when a drone video was also made possible (a service we highly recommend)! We cannot stop flipping through the images and our family/friends are in awe of how wonderfully they themselves were photographed. We would hire Flo again in a heartbeat! - Michele and Nestor

Hey there!! My name is Marilyn and I'm so glad you're here ♡ I am a couples + wedding photographer based in New York City, and happy to travel to wherever your day is at! I've had pink hair for the last 6 years so at this point it has become a personality trait and I'm 100% okay with it. I love the outdoors, pat every dog I can, and thrive on ben and jerry's. My ideal place to be would likely be frolicking in wildflowers in a dress that's way too long, but the longer the better. The patio of my NYC apartment with a good book is a close second favorite though, for sure.

Awarded Best of Zola
From her cotton-candy hair to her rosy cheeks, Marilyn is one of the kindest and most genuine people I have ever had the pleasure knowing. Marilyn goes beyond just being a candid wedding photographer-- she is an artist. She captures your most intimate moments, whether you know she is or not. Her photos glow with life and joy, and I feel so lucky to know her.

I strive to make the world better by capturing love authentically, spreading positivity & happiness, and supporting organizations that are doing the work to preserve our planet & enrich the lives of marginalized communities. With my whole heart, I unapologetically embrace inclusivity & all forms of love.

We are incredibly happy with our wedding photos! Bailey really has "the eye." Her artsy and elegant photos are magazine-worthy and really tell a story. If you're looking for the opposite of cheesy wedding photography, your search ends here. I was already quite certain I was going to book Bailey based on her portfolio alone, but the introductory video phone call sealed the deal. Bailey's warm and friendly personality really puts you at ease, and by the time our wedding day(s) (an elopement and later reception) arrived, it felt like we were having our pictures taken by a dear friend.

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. = )

Hi! I’m Justin (he/him) and I’m here to affirm your love, make you feel like a fucking rockstar, and dance like a total fool. Oh, and take so many gorgeous photos of y’all. 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.

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband, Peter, and I hired Justin to photograph our wedding at the Marriage Bureau in Manhattan on July 26, 2019. It was an intimate affair--17 people total, including us. Justin and I spoke a few weeks before the ceremony and I was immediately impressed by the questions he asked me. He not only wanted to learn more about us and our relationship, but also asked about all of the guests! On the day, he showed up on time and photographed us all while we waited for our turn. I watched how he would talk to everyone as he worked, and all of our guests commented on how much they "loved" Justin. He is warm, funny, compassionate and talented. He also knows how to calm a nervous bride. We had to wait an extra long time (they were short one marriage officiant), and knowing that we had a lunch reservation pending, I was visibly stressed. Justin had a way of acknowledging my feelings, while also helping me to accept the present situation and reassuring me over, and over that everything would turn out okay. And...it did. When we got our photos back, I had tears in my eyes...so many of the photos literally took my breath away. He perfectly captured the feelings and the energy of our special day, and these are precious memories that will last our entire lives! I highly recommend Justin to photograph your wedding! You will be so happy that you did!

If you're the kind of couple that would prefer their photographer feel like one of the guests as opposed to a paparazzi, and if when the neighbors complain about the noise, you just invite them to the party, keep reading. I take a documentary-style approach to my weddings. Roaming with a camera, I capture the candid moments and small details that make your wedding unique to you, while making sure to set aside time for a few special portraits.

There is an energy in her photographs that bring out the beauty in everyone and everything. Stephanie showed great care and attention to detail from the first moment she began working with us, finding out about the moments and elements of our events that were significant to us.

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!

We couldn’t have made a better choice for our wedding day than hiring Michelle Kay to be our photographer! When we first started looking for a photographer, we were both a little nervous, not having done professional photos before. From the first phone call, Michelle made us feel comfortable and totally relaxed about it. We did our engagement shoot with her which I highly recommend, and not just because of the absolutely beautiful photos which got so many compliments. Michelle made us feel relaxed, kept us laughing, made the day enjoyable and was even totally patient with our barking and excited pup and ended up getting great shots of her as well. Leading up to the wedding day, we had no stress at all when it came to planning for photos because Michelle was on top of everything. By the time we finally got to the wedding day, she honestly felt like a friend. Among the chaos of the day, her personality was so calming and she kept us smiling and having fun the entire time we were taking pictures – and everybody felt that way! Of course, our wedding photos came out absolutely perfect and I tear up from looking at the amazing moments she captured. Michelle- you were awesome and I cannot thank you enough for so perfectly capturing our day!

Awarded Best of Zola
Amy is just as skilled with composing couple portraits as she is with capturing big group shots as well as candid, intimate moments. Beyond that, though, she is exceptionally compassionate. When she could tell I was stressed when getting ready and running late, she promised me she had nowhere else to be and to not worry. When wrangling big groups of aunts and uncles, she was deftly able to have them shift in place, fix a tie, button a jacket, tuck their hair back, and more, without wasting time. And her communication is just as professional and prompt in the runup as it is on the day itself. We never had any doubts about what Amy would be providing, who would be coming with her, or when she'd be arriving, because she made it extremely clear from the get-go. We loved, loved, loved working with her, and we recommend her to everyone we know. Please, book her!

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. We have and would highly recommend Shelby to anyone looking for a wedding photographer!

Hi there! I’m Lindsey “Lensy” Michelle (she/her) – a New York City and Boston based wedding and elopement photographer specializing in non-traditional celebrations. My style is a mix of candid and directed coverage that seeks to amplify and celebrate what makes each couple unique.

Awarded Best of Zola
Having great wedding photos was definitely a huge priority for me in planning our April 2022 Boston area (Assembly Row) wedding. I'm a visual person, and knew that, especially a few drinks in, the photos would be a big part of how I remembered our special day. When I came across Lindsey's photos, I knew she was the one! Her photos stood out to me among the warm-toned, softly edited photos I saw a lot of online. I loved how unique a lot of the weddings she featured looked, and everyone just looked like they were having so much fun -- and that's exactly how I wanted our wedding to feel: fun! She quickly responded to my inquiry and in the first zoom call she was incredibly informative, super friendly, and I could tell that we'd be a great fit! She walked us through all of the logistics, the pricing, etc., and there were never any surprises. Beyond taking stellar photos, what we loved was how helpful she was along the way. We've never planned a wedding before, but she's photographed so many! So her suggestions and reassurance along the way in terms of the wedding timeline, logistics, even offering to connect us with an officiant (though we ended up going with our friend), and everything was really reassuring! On the day of the wedding, she arrived promptly, and let us get ready and do our thing while she scouted out locations to take photos later. We never had to worry about a thing the day of. She was very flexible and able to adapt when we went slightly behind schedule, and did a great job making us feel really comfortable! Her second photographer, Brian, was also fantastic and made my husband and his friends feel really comfortable taking photos; and I think they both helped him feel extra confident before the ceremony. I think what you'll see from the photos I'm posting here is how much fun we had, and she was there to capture (and encourage) it all. I love how organic all of the photos feel, and she really caught the essence of how fun of a day it was. & she got some great personality photos of all of us-- and we love that there are some "less then perfect" photos in there too. We also loved that her and Brian both joined the party and danced all night with us! Not only did they bring the party, I think that made people feel even more comfortable in front of the camera and we have some true gems for the album. Everyone has complimented how amazing our photos are, it's one of the first things people say when I show them the photos, and it even convinced many of our friends/family that paying up for a high quality photographer really makes all the difference and is worth budgeting for. All in all, could not recommend Lindsey more for engagement and wedding photography and being an overall great resource for all things wedding in the Boston area.

This is delightfully different elopement + wedding photography! From helicopter elopements, to hiking engagements, to weddings with bouncy houses, I capture the adventurous, quirky, and unique. Based in both New York and California, with travel worldwide, I've photographed couples on 6 continents. My creative, fun, and candid photography uses innovative techniques and unique ideas to get photos that make you look twice. Whether you're saying vows in your backyard or having a 3-day adventure wedding in the rainforest, I'll catch every spontaneous moment of joy and laughter—and plan a few awesomely unique shots on top of it all.

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!

Hi! My name is Hannah Jan Schillinger and I’m the owner and lead photographer of Hannah Jan Photo. I grew up in Westchester, New York and graduated from Kenyon College with a degree in Art History. 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 was an amazing photographer from start to finish. Not only was she extremely organized and extremely responsive she had a very very solid process in place and it made us, a pair of neurotic newlyweds, feel completely at ease. She takes really amazing candid shots as well as is really good at giving direction when you want a photo that is more composed. Her flexibility also helps us relax especially given the day itself so hectic. The most incredible part is really actually the fact that we didn’t meet her in person even until our wedding day due to Covid and she still did a stellar job & took the most amazing photos for us that we will definitely cherish for very long time to come.

He really does a great job integrating himself into the wedding. 3. HIS PHOTOS TURN OUT STUNNING!!!!!!! You will be BLOWN away by the quality an the artistry of King. He may look like he is just snapping pictures, but he is doing way more than that! He is working a vision and capturing your special event in a way I cannot explain. Check his portfolio.

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.

Celia at The Lovely Lens was an absolute GEM!! Our wedding was not the typical / traditional ceremony-- on purpose! Leading up to the big day, Celia kept lines of communication open (so helpful for planning) and was 1000% supportive of our special day being so...well, special! She was such a total champ while capturing every moment in the pouring rain. She was fully prepared for the weather & didn't miss one beat! My partner and I instantly felt at ease and loved our time together with her. She encouraged us to be our authentically goofy selves! Her presence was so warm, her energy was delightful, and her work was STUNNING! Seriously, I'm obsessed with the photos! Not only do we have incredible images from this amazing day, but we also have wonderful memories with Celia. She was so friendly and kind us as well as to our family and friends, and immediately jumped on board with our 'potluck bbq at Grandma's house' vibe. By the end of the day she felt like part of the family as we chatted about our furkids and exchanged on where to order some cute socks with their faces on them, haha. If you're looking for an absolute powerhouse of an artist to capture your day in the way that doesn't feel awkward or intrusive, or if you're looking for a photographer with genuinely good vibes and authentic energy, or if you're looking for someone to simply help tell your love story through stunning imagery-- please consider The Lovely Lens of Celia for your special day. 3

I've been working as a photographer full time for the last 10 years and in that time have managed to photograph over 200 weddings or something like that. I'm from Virginia originally and was always interested in photography and got my first big break at a friend's wedding! I moved to NYC in 2011 and live in Brooklyn with my partner Austin and our two dogs Blanca and Bort. We have a very large record collection and love trying natural wines!

We knew from the beginning that our event was going to have some unique challenges. Outdoors in winter at sunset. Karen came prepared. She had scouted out the venue and knew exactly how to maximize the potential. She saw places we would never have thought to use. Her skill took the challenge of low lighting and turned it into an asset. The photos from start to finish are exquisite. "You look like celebrities!" and "Magical!" are just a few of the compliments we've received. From pre-planning right through the finishing touches on our beautiful album, Karen captured the dreams coming true.

Weddings are my creative playground combining three of my favorite types of photography into one:  portraiture, lifestyle, and photojournalism.  I love jumping into your day armed and ready to capture the most extraordinary fleeting moments in real time. 

From the first moment we met Stephanie, my husband and I discovered how pleasant, attentive and professional she was. Her expertise really shined through as she kept us up to date with scouting venues as well as ideas of run-of-show on the big day.

Hey there! My partner Emilio and I have been shooting together for over 5 years. I personally shot my first wedding back in 2010! We're an LGBT owned company and we are so so so passionate about making sure everyone feels represented in a sometimes white-washed straight appearing industry, we love inclusivity. Our main goal is you having the best stress-free and FUN wedding photo/video experience.

Christian and Emilio were an absolute joy to work with from our exploratory communications, to the day of our wedding, and the delivery of our photo's and video. We are forever grateful to have them be apart of our special day. They listened to exactly what we asked for. We didn't want a lot of the typical wedding shots and wanted more candid photos. Not only did they deliver on that, some of the more staged photo's that we thought we didn't need, once we saw the outcome, we were happy that they worked a few of those in the mix ;-). Christian and Emilio totally got our vibe and it translated beautifully in photo's and our video. Our friends and family are still raving about it! Listen, we all know that sticking to a budget while wedding planning is necessary yet one of the biggest challenges BUT they are willing to work with you. I'm not kidding. These gents truly have your best interest at heart and that includes giving you quality work within a budget that works for you. My husband and I have very high standards and are very detailed oriented, so this a very honest review. Cross this off your 'vendors to hire' list and HIRE THEM! Don't even think twice about it.

Receiving our wedding photos while helping plan the funeral was the greatest gift we could have ever gotten. At that moment, fully understanding just how fleeting life truly is, that started our love affair with wedding photography. We love how wedding photography does not have to be corny or grossly over staged. It can be candid, genuine, and provide amazing couples with images that they will cherish for a lifetime.

Jill & Ryan are beyond amazing..... between clear communication, quick response, being easy to get along with, and don't forget the KILLER photos, I can not recommend them enough!

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!

My wife and I worked with Jess over this past year for engagement photos and coverage of our wedding (ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception). The engagement photos were done in NYC and the wedding was at a venue outside of Philadelphia. It was a true pleasure to work with Jess. She is extremely skilled, knowledgeable, communicative, and prepared. The quality of the work in her portfolio speaks for itself but I cannot overstate how thrilled my partner and I are with the photos. She managed to capture so many lovely moments and the spirit of the day. The intimacy and beauty she brings out with her portraits are astounding—I have never felt more comfortable being in front of a camera and I have never loved the result so much. The variety of the media brings a beauty to the detail I didn’t think I would care about—the place settings, the venue, and everything else look great and are considered in composition and lighting. None of the photos delivered are there just to check a box. The amount of preparation and work she puts in for each job is evident just by the uniquely specific nature of her questionnaire—her questions were helpful for us in planning! She was always quick to email us back when we had questions for her and helpful in ways we never would have expected—good news if you don’t know how to pin a boutonniere, Jess does (and she brought extra pins). The amount of choices for any type of wedding vendor is overwhelming. You would be lucky, as we were, to choose Jess.

My images are a blend of formal photographic training and a passion for telling stories with pictures. I specialize in capturing natural, candid moments. I approach wedding photography as a documentarian with a deep love of family and a great respect for ritual.

I count my lucky stars that my husband and I were fortunate enough to work with Carey, and her amazing second shooter, Sandy, for our wedding photos. Carey’s photos are simply works of art. She has the ability to create exquisite, photojournalistic images that are so full of emotion, the feeling of the moment simply leaps off the page. I searched long and hard for the “right” photographer for our wedding day and just cannot say enough how truly grateful we were to work with Carey. As if her photography talents were not enough, she (and Sandy!) are simply the warmest humans who are so genuinely happy to be part of the special moments they are photographing, and were rooting so deeply for our happiness we (and frankly our whole extended families) considered Carey and Sandy part of the family by the end of our wedding night. They integrated with our crew seamlessly and were in no way intrusive. Carey was also so patient with us during the planning phases, made time late in the evening to speak with us when she knew our work schedules were hectic and invited us down to her Brooklyn studio for a pre-wedding photo shoot to help with the pre-wedding jitters. Not to be understated is just how calming a presence Carey was to us on our wedding day. She can take two stressed humans and work her magic so they are having nothing but the best time ever (and feel like subjects of a Time magazine/Vogue cover story). Easily the best money we spent in the entire wedding process – we had so much fun together and we are obsessed with our wedding photos. Carey and Sandy are incredible talents – run, don’t walk to book if you are in need of any photography for life’s most special moments. We hope to have an excuse to work with them again soon.

The pre-planning was very thorough and thoughtful, and she made sure she got all of the information she needed in ahead of time. She came well prepared, was able to wrangle our families who met for the very first time that evening, and made us feel very comfortable and at ease during out portrait session. Judson captured the essence of our celebration, made us and our friends and family look super cute, and documented all the beautiful moments that happened throughout the night. We were truly blessed by her talent and we are so happy to have such wonderful visual documentation of our special day.

She's fun and easygoing; she was great with all our guests. She arrived at our venue an hour early to get a look at some possible photo locations. Most of all, her photos are absolutely beautiful. They capture the moments that we never want to forget in a very touching way. My husband and I are so happy with the way they turned out. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an excellent photographer.

Throughout everything Adam was amazing to work with, and the quality of his work is outstanding. He perfectly captured our day including all of the best moments and angles. Further, he went anywhere we wanted and was very can-do to get stunning shots that took a little hiking.

Those photos are once in a lifetime photos and that's exactly what I'm all about - capturing the real you in that special moment. That is a gift that you will cherish for a lifetime and lifetimes after that.

My husband and I were lucky enough to have Melissa photograph both our engagement photos and our elopement. Melissa is so kind, flexible and professional. I can't say enough great things about her, and that's just as a person. She is truly an artist and fantastic at her craft.

i consider myself too much of a hopeless romantic and a laid-back photographer to bring the best in you! i’ve been told that nurture is my superpower, and documenting love stories is my outlet. over the years i’ve learned that when it comes to being creative, art it’s what makes me feel alive, that's why my approach to photography is to have an "as-personal-as-possible" experience with my couples by valuing authenticity and connection. to make the whole process feel light and easy! your life’s best moments and stages deserve to be documented in a way that tells YOUR story.

Juan goes above and beyond with his work. From the moment he interacts with his clients he has this genuine connection to him. He takes the time to be personal and truly understands his clients needs. He over delivers with his stunning work. Making sure each gallery is hand crafted to perfection for each couple.

Before we even met, Ryan and Tatiana had 10 years experience as wedding photographers, and Ryan had been named one of the Top 10 Wedding Photographers in the World by the two top industry magazines, American Photo and Rangefinder. We didn't mean to fall in love with the person whose style and experience fit most neatly with each others', but it happened. Now we manage our business and creative passion with our other passion … parenting our Tasmanian Devil of a toddler, Gavin, in our happy place of Cobble Hill, Brooklyn.

Hire the Brenizers! They are incredibly professional, talented, warm and dedicated. Within days of our wedding, they sent us a sneak peak of highlight photos from our wedding day. Their style is very personal; there is nothing "staged" about their photos. We truly felt like we had made new friends by the end of the day and would gladly work with them again! Strongly recommend.
