Hi! I’m Ashley of Ashley Sara Photography! I'm a luxury wedding photographer based in Pittsburgh, but I capture love stories all over the globe!

Ashley Sara Photo is hands down the best choice you will ever make! She is not only the most incredibly talented photographer, but also the kindest soul. You will be in awe of her skills and want to be best friends with her all at the same time. She made our wedding day 1000x better and we had the best time exploring our venue with her while capturing the most beautiful memories. I look at my wedding pictures at least once per day because they are just that good. I am someone who hates photos of myself and does not enjoy being in front of a camera, and she somehow managed to give me literally hundreds of beautiful photos that I adore. She’s also a pretty awesome hype woman and will give you plenty of confidence boosts. We already have 1 year anniversary pictures scheduled with her and plan to use her for every other occasion we can because who doesn’t need more beautiful photos they love!? To sum this up, just hire her. I promise you will not regret it :)

Kathleen Baker Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $8,997
  • Serves Amherst, NY for additional fees

I like to think of myself as a lil bit southern, lil bit punk, and a whole lotta rock-n-roll. I’m a PBR lover, hardcore show corner dweller, disco ball queen. You’re going to hear me say, “hell yeah, brother” more than twice, Dale Earnhardt is an icon, and Dolly Parton is royalty. You'll love me if you're a little trashy, always classy, badass, sometimes chic, forever romantic. Unwedding, editorial, nontraditional, offbeat, colorful, joyful, film-inspired, and disco vibes always. If you like, I'll wear a rainbow suit, I'll definitely dance with your mom, and I will always be a champion for you and your lover.

Kathleen is hands down the best photographer I’ve ever worked with. Her professionalism and quality of product are unmatched. She goes above and beyond with her work and you can tell how passionate she is about it. If you want someone with great energy, clear communication, incredible products, great professionalism, and so much more then she’s your girl!

Swiger Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Amherst, NY for additional fees

When I went to college I knew I wanted to have a career that allowed me to work with people and so I studied Social Work and Psychology! Photography was a hobby but when my friend found her self with no photographer days before her wedding, she asked if I could shoot her day and from the first wedding I was hooked! 11 years later and I think I have the best job on the planet. I have been married to the love of my life Jordan for 6 years now and she is the extra magic in Swiger Photography. We have a lil rescue pup named Furgie and spend our free time trying new bourbons and exploring Philadelphia!

I have known Amanda both professionally and personally for several years, and when the time came to choose my own wedding photographer, there was no question that she was it. She is incredibly professional, personable, and has a way to bring the light out of every person who stands in front of her camera. She works with such ease and confidence that there was not a single moment that I felt stressed during our day, because I knew our moments were being captured. Leading up to the wedding, Amanda made sure that she really understood our vision for our day, and absolutely delivered! If you are looking for a photographer that can make even the most shy family member absolutely shine, who brings laughter and joy to your wedding, and who will unequivocally give her all to capturing your precious moments, you would be remiss not to hire Swiger Photography!

Sufia Huq Portraits 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Amherst, NY for additional fees

I’m a Sunshine State native, a Pisces, and a lover of the outdoors. Photography is my favorite way to connect with people. The ability to freeze a memory to look back on for years at a time is what kept me wanting more. I am forever in awe that taking photos allows me to create art, while also giving people stories to reflect on down the line.

Awarded Best of Zola
We found Sufia through a recommendation from another Central Florida photographer, and we're so glad that we crossed paths with her! We booked her for our small wedding in March of 2021, and shortly after that booking we had engagement photos done. She had perfect recommendations for locations that would fit us, and was also so sweet and patient with our pup that we brought along for the morning too. Even in the super humid Florida weather, we had a great time doing our session and we loved the pictures- They're hanging in our house now! Once our wedding rolled around, Sufia and her partner for the day were lovely to work with- My husband and I are both pretty introverted, but they made the environment relaxing and fun. Sufia found ways to inject little pieces of our life into the final photos, which is so special to get to look back on- Even managing to get in some fun pictures with our very young nieces and nephews, which is no small feat with so many personalities in play. I loved our experiences so much, and actually booked her again just this month for some couple photos to commemorate a personal event. Of course the logistical things are important- she's prompt, professional, and the quality of her work is wonderful- but on top of that, she's simply a great individual with a warm, kind energy, and a genuine desire to gift others with memories of their most special days. If you have the opportunity to work with her, do it!

Working with Treasure Films was amazing, the videographers arrived on time, were incredibly friendly, and got a ton of footage without feeling like you had a camera in your face all night. They communicated with us very effectively before and after the wedding. It's an incredibly video that I've watched about 100 times. Everyone who sees it says it looks like a real movie, they captured so many great moments and edited it together perfectly. 10/10 would recommend using them!

Tiny House Photo 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,200
  • Serves Amherst, NY for additional fees

Tiny House Photo is a LGBTQ+ women owned documenting love stories with intention. Stephanie, the photographer behind Tiny House Photo, is located in Fort Lauderdale, Florida but travels often around the country to photograph couples, elopements and weddings.

Awarded Best of Zola
We booked Tiny House Photo for our engagement session and wedding and I cannot recommend Stephanie enough for your special event. Stephanie’s photography is absolutely gorgeous, heartfelt, elegant, humorous, raw, silly, artful, and fabulous. My husband I were completely thrilled with all of our photos. Stephanie documented our wedding day in the most heartfelt way, capturing the essence of every moment. Looking through the photos brought us back to every moment, they enamored us as much as they made us laugh and say things like, “Of course this family member had 3 outfit changes.” Our wedding day was perfect not because everything was seamless and smooth, but because it was exactly what we wanted it to be, and Stephanie helped us both actualize that by giving folks directions when needed and by documenting it so truthfully to help us remember all the joys, laughter, tears, and mild annoyances of the day! What we loved about Stephanie’s photography from the start was its honesty and deep feeling. Her photography spoke to us in a way that was much deeper than getting some fancy or trendy shots of our wedding. We wanted to remember it all – each raw moment that paints the whole picture, each raw moment that has its own value even if it’s unknown at the time. We wanted someone who knew how to connect with all of the deep complexities of existing, that fortunately/unfortunately(?) won’t be put on pause during your wedding day! Stephanie has the gift to create a gorgeous documentary of a special day because she has the beautiful ability to tap into the deeper meaning of both the small and big moments. Her empathy and compassion were felt by all, which was evident in the comfort everyone felt around her. If you’re camera shy, Stephanie is amazing to work with, she helps you feel so comfortable and eventually you forget you’re even being photographed. Stephanie’s boundaries and fierce protectiveness kept things in line, which we so greatly appreciated. She also helped us develop our day of timeline and portrait list. She is a literal wedding guardian angel. Stephanie has such a special gift, and we’re so grateful that she shared it with us. We HIGHLY recommend that you book her for all of your events, especially if you are also a sensitive, deeply feeling, neuro-spicy (as she says!) person. We 100/10 recommend Stephanie for her kindness, professionalism, expertise and sense of humor. I’m already thinking of future photo shoots we can do with her… :)

Kie Thurman Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Amherst, NY for additional fees

Hi there!! I'm Kie, pronounced like pie. I've been a photographer of some sort for nearly a decade, but weddings didn't come into my life until 2020 (perfect timing!!), it's become my personality trait and I truly don't think I could love doing anything more than this. Some things about me: I prefer series over movies (Gossip Girl, The Office, Buffy TVS, How I Met Your Mother are some of my faves), I'm nothing if not a Paramore fan, I love cute and cheesy romance novels, and I think I am hilarious. I love being your #1 hype girl, joining the party at the reception, and making you comfortable on your big day :)

We will rave about our experience with Kie for the rest of our lives! She is an absolute angel and has exceeded every expectation we have! We booked Kie for our wedding and she did our engagement photos as well! Her work is pure art and absolutely breathtaking. She is one of the most talented photographers we have come across. Not only will her work be the photos of your dreams, but she is such a remarkable person to work with! Kie is so kind, fun, and outgoing, she is very personable and makes you feel comfortable being in front of a camera (like it’s not even there). One comment that my husband made after our first session with Kie for engagement photos, was that it felt like going on a date, we enjoyed ourselves so much, it was really fun and light-hearted. From the very beginning, she was nothing short of amazing! She is flexible with scheduling and was super willing to travel almost 5 states away to photograph our wedding! She was always on time and never skipped a beat! The one thing that we really looked for in a photographer was someone who captures the raw, pure moments, rather than being posed for every picture. Kie does exactly that, you can feel the life and soul in every picture she captures, her photos are better than your pinterest inspiration and will be the art on your wall you will cherish forever. We will definitely be using her for all of our future photography needs and we will definitely be recommending her to anyone and everyone. Thank you so much Kie! God has blessed you with an amazing gift and talent!

My Hero Zero

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $7,500
  • Serves Amherst, NY for additional fees

My Hero Zero has honed its captivating blend of showmanship, talent, and pop-savvy to become one of the most regionally recognized bands along the east coast. The dual fronting abilities of Jason Olcese and Eric Damiano give the band the ability to cross genres and help you create that epic night out with your friends. Acoustic pop meets indie punk. Storyteller intimacy meets sweaty in your face basement shows. A powerhouse 4 piece meets an audience that can compete with the power of the microphone.

Awarded Best of Zola
My Hero Zero is absolutely incredible. I've seen them countless in times in State College and my wife was also a huge fan after seeing them in Ocean City/Dewey many times. We reached out to ask about the possibility of them playing at our wedding in Dallas (a quick 24 hour drive from Pennsylvania) and we were so happy that they could do it. Not only did they all make the trip, they also were very easy to work with throughout the entire planning period and wedding weekend. The set up was incredible and they even took some song requests to make everything feel very special. Jason MC'd the wedding and did a killer job. I recommend seeing them at any of their many regular spots to just get an idea of how awesome they are. 10/10 would consider them the best wedding band I've ever seen (no bias)! -Ryan and Alli

We are so happy to have hired Angelica and her team. From the start she listened to what we needed, catered to our vision for our wedding photos, and delivered breathtaking images. Any questions we had she answered, so it was great to have quick communication with her, as most of our vendors took almost a week to get back to us! We go through our photos all the time, and I can honestly say our wedding photos are so much better than my friend's photos! We also had a full album and parent albums in our collection. Our main album came in a gorgeous wooden box. Our parent's album were custom created for them, instead of a replica. We even got a few large photos to decorate our home. They are absolutely gorgeous! We were very happy we did purchase them and Angelica delivered them within two to three months from our wedding! Thanks to her always following up with us, we were able to get our albums designed, our wall art photos chosen, and helped us guide our parents as to what photos to choose for their albums. I have friends still waiting for their albums and photos and it's been almost a year. You can't go wrong with Angelica Criscuolo Photography. She's sweet, a professional, and when it came time to family photos, she was the boss and took charged! We loved it as we have a very boisterous family. Thank you Angelica!

Hi I'm Andrew! I first started filming weddings when my sister got married in 2017. I quickly fell in love with the entire process and getting to know all the couples and their guests. Maybe I'm just a hopeless romantic haha (My guilty pleasure is Hallmark movies, once I walk in the room with it on I have to see how it ends!).

Awarded Best of Zola
We had Magical Multimedia be our videographer for our wedding and my husband and I could not be more impressed! Andrew and his second shooter were very nice and helped make suggestions to create great clips for the film. They captured the key parts of our special day and seamlessly wove it together to create a video that showed the highlights as well as the entirety of our ceremony, first dance, and toasts. Andrew went above and beyond by surprising us with a tablet that was placed in a cover that had our wedding photo on it. Now we can reminisce on our special day any time we want. If you're looking for a videographer, then look no further because this guy is the best!

Andrew studied music at Five Towns College in Dix Hills and graduated top of his class. After playing in the Long Island music scene for years, he turned his focus into performing for weddings and special events.

Awarded Best of Zola
We'd wanted a guitarist for the ceremony and cocktail hour to have a very mellow live music addition to the event. After some search, we hired Andrew to play our wedding from only a youtube video and it might have been the best decision we made for that day. Andrew was in contact with us throughout the almost 2 year delay (thanks, Covid) between booking and the event and gave us great recommendations on songs. We went into the wedding with zero playlists and just told him to play whatever - every song was perfect. We only had one requested song which he waited until we were outside to play, and it was great. Our guests still talk to us about the guitarist and how amazing cocktail hour was. Out of everything during the day, who knew the best part would be the first hour? Our biggest regret was not keeping him there for the entire day! You can't go wrong with this man, excellent voice and playing with a wide range. Thank you again, Andrew!

My name is Melissa Kelly! I am a Boston Metrowest based wedding photographer! I live in Grafton, MA with my wonderful husband and my two energetic boys! Photography has been a family hobby for my entire life! My father and I have always shared a special bond over our creative and artistic side and my maternal grandfather even had a dark room IN his home! It's in my blood! I am so excited to be able to share my passion with others!

Both my engagement photos and wedding photos were taken by Melissa! Honestly, she was the best! (And it should be noted, I am picky with pictures haha) While "wedding planning" some people recommended I hire a videographer, but with Melissa's photos I didn't even need one! She captures every moment, even ones you didn't realize were being captured. It's like reliving my day every time I look at these photos. There is a lot of beauty in her editing, lighting, and angles. She gives you pose ideas too for those who are a little camera-awkward. Plus I got sooooo much positive feedback from wedding guest about how much they loved her the night of the wedding due to her amazing, fun personality, but then when they saw the outcome of the photos afterwards, everyone including my husband and I were (even more) impressed. I absolutely recommend Photography By Melissa Kelly. You will get beautiful photos and memories a genuine kind person to hang out with on your special day :) I honestly can't thank her enough, hands down!

"OLVE", the letters in the word "love" rearranged. My passions and fascination lie with perception -- seeing, capturing and appreciating it in all the different forms. So many things happen on your wedding day; big and small, there is beauty in all the details. I find joy in every stage of documenting and telling your story via moving pictures. *Love is Love - we acknowledge and appreciate love in every shape and form. LGBTQ+ owned and operated.*

I had the pleasure of working with Liv on a bridal photo shoot and I just love her style! This was the first time I have worked with Liv and she is so much fun! She certainly brought the energy, the fun, the creativity to the table for a fun shoot, and she made sure everyone felt involved, included, and comfortable. She was an absolute blast to work with and I can’t wait to work with her again. Love her style, the energy she brings, and she is so creative!

Hi all, I’m Erin! I’m a wedding photographer based in Minneapolis but I’m always up for a destination or travel wedding/elopement. I feel my favorite images are always ones that are captured vs manufactured and embracing the true interactions between the couple, their friends and family. I LOVE love and I’ll probably cry at your wedding, all those feels get me.

Awarded Best of Zola
I can't imagine anyone better to work with for our wedding pics. Erin effortlessly met our vibe and helped us keep everything calm, cool, and moving right along. She was essential in helping us nail down a timeline that maximized our priorities but also resulted in an incredible variety of photos that perfectly captured the day. We ended up with so many photos we loved that our moms scheduled a day to reminisce on the wedding and go back through the pics together. Everything 10/10, can't recommend enough!

I was born off the coast of Portugal, in the Azores Islands and raised in Cartaxo, close to Lisbon. Portugal was my home until the age of 19. I then moved to the US and have resided in Boston ever since. I enjoy the gorgeous seasons that New England offers an explorer like myself. My career started out in Graphic Design but at some point, photography found a place in my heart and soul, and I have been wandering the globe with my camera always in hand. Over the past decade I have been photographing weddings and events all over the country.

We could not have asked for a better photographer for our wedding and engagement photos!! Pedro's attention to detail, professionalism, and attention to detail is impeccable!! And, his work is AMAZING!!

Hey all you cute love birds!!! I am a Boise area photographer, BUT I LOVE to travel and would absolutely kill to travel for you! Okay, not literally kill but ya know. I would love love to travel for you! I am a wedding photographer, who specializes in elopements and intimate weddings! Do I still offer more traditional big weddings? HELL YES. My business is all about creating exceptional experiences! I want to make sure your day is so special, and that you get the images of your dreams! I try to stray from the traditional, and go for more fun, unique experiences! If you're looking for that, let's get this party started!!

I had seen Jordan's photos on instagram and fallen in love with their aesthetic. I've been in traditional posed wedding photos as part of the wedding party and family in the past and I just never look like myself in them. I cannot pose and get very self-conscious if I know my picture is being taken. But having candid moments from the day really meant the world to me and that is what really resonated with me in Jordan's style; the documentary feel. Beyond this, there is this incredible eye for lighting and angle and capturing just the right moment that this duo (because it is Jordan and her husband, Trent) brings that I didn't find in any other portfolio I went through when looking for a photographer. She was super patient and understanding when walking me through the process on our introduction and every other subsequent call leading up to the day. We weren't going to be using engagement photos for the traditional announcements, but I had this idea of a wonderful series of photos at this location on the island where we were having the wedding that we could have as kind of our own celebration of our engagement and they were instantly on board and agreed to come out the day before to do those photos at that time. It ended up being a really lovely time for us 4 to bond and get used to each other so I highly recommend doing some kind of engagement photo session even if you're a photo-averse person like myself and the thought of doing more photos seems like the last thing you want to do. Jordan and Trent are so calm and relaxed that it made it really easy to be natural around them. And then on the day they were absolute rockstars. We were, as is surprising to maybe no one but us, running super late and they very gracefully helped manage our extended families and the venue to keep the pressure off us while still getting everything done they could. We showed up to the venue with 20 minutes to the ceremony and we somehow managed to get all our family photos (with toddlers and blended modern family combinations in the mix) and still be only 5 minutes late on the ceremony start. Then we snuck away for sunset photos and that ended up being this absolutely beautiful time we got to spend together during the reception, not awkward at all. And I truly think that's because of how natural and talented this duo are at their jobs. They were like the most lovely and helpful guests at the wedding, truly like having friends who are photographing the day for you. They made the day exactly what I hoped for, this beautiful, cherished time spent with family and friends in a magical place celebrating being all together and I cannot imagine my wedding without them there. I don't have the full album yet, but I do have the engagement photos and an absolutely breathtaking sneak peek of the day and they are so beautiful I almost don't believe it. Hopefully I won't need another wedding photographer (hahahaha) but if I do need family photos for the future they will be my first call.

Hi friend! Grace here. I’m from a small town in south-central PA, where I was raised on the great outdoors, drive-in movies, & board games. My husband is my best friend & we have an adorable toddler keeping us on our toes! We're all about Jesus, our people, traveling, coffee shops & our two Aussies. I’m a big advocate of seeing new places, deep talks under the stars & being near the mountains any chance I can get. I believe that marriage begins with a promise & a lifetime of memories follow after that. My clients are my friends & I feel privileged to begin this adventure with you!

I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer. She was sooo easy to work with. Her visions aligned with mine, she was efficient and so sweet. I truly trusted her with everything in me and she did not disappoint! She traveled across the country for us and was a 10/10 human being and professional photographer. You need her!!

Kristen did my engagement photos and will also be doing my wedding! She has been so flexible, patient, responsive, and understanding this entire process.

We were worried that we were going to stand there awkwardly but she walked us through the entire shoot. She really took her time with us and then was so excited to upload and edit our photos that she had them done within the next few days. I couldn’t recommend her more! Thank you Kristen!!

My name is Cecilia but you can call me Cece. I'm so happy you are here. I'm married to the love of my life and together we have three rambunctious little boys. I'm based in Utah and I LOVE traveling. If your wedding is out of state I would love to come to you. I have always found joy in taking photos. It wasn't until I got pregnant with my first child that I developed a strong passion for photography. When I'm not taking pictures I enjoy exercising, reading books, and hanging out with my family & friends

Cecilia captured our wedding day at Brighton Resort in the mountains. She was so personable and really got to know my fiance and I. She listened to what we wanted and delivered plus so much more! She was even dancing on the dance floor to drum up excitement and capture our friends' energy. I would book her again 10 times over! Best decision!

Real moments & love stories. Queer/LBGTQ+ always Hi, I'm Sasha (she/her or they/them). I am friendly, easy going, and real happy to join you on your wedding day. It’s your wedding. Be comfortable. Enjoy it. I pay attention, I anticipate, and I work hard to get your real, genuine moments and emotion.

I feel so passionately about recommending Sasha I don't even know where to begin! My fiancee and I, as well as several members of our wedding party, have not stopped talking about how great she was since our wedding a couple weeks ago. Sasha did our photos for both our engagement shoot and our wedding. When we started wedding planning, it was important to us to hire vendors who not only aligned with a product we wanted and our price range, but also who were kind, good people we'd want to spend our wedding day with. Some vendors fell short, but Sasha made up for it and then some. First of all, Sasha is EXTREMELY talented. She really captures your essence in her work and several people commented to me that they could "feel" our wedding and emotions through our photos. Her photos are not cheesy or contrived, which was something we knew we wanted when hiring a photographer, and her values aligned with what we were looking for. She is very talented at working with lighting in special and artistic ways. She will "yes and" every single one of your ideas and suggestions for your photos, and really listens to your requests and preferences. Beyond all of this, even if I hated the photos (which is far from the case, I love them so much), I would hire her again and again. Your photographer is someone you spend a LOT of time with on your wedding day. Having someone with good, calm, kind energy who you vibe with is really important. I had a somewhat rough start to my day, getting a bit overwhelmed and behind schedule. Sasha was exactly the person I needed to be with to help ground and calm the energy of everything when it otherwise felt chaotic. She is cool as a cucumber under pressure, kind to every single person she meets, carries such a positive energy, and is a true professional at pivoting/troubleshooting when something goes wrong. She's also a quiet leader who will help keep your wedding running smoothly, pay attention to your timeline, etc. We had a giant wedding party and she somehow corralled people very quickly to get all the group shots we requested, so that I never had to think about it. On the wedding day, as others have said, she was somehow everywhere, but in the least obstructive way possible. I didn't even notice her during the reception or ceremony yet somehow she captured amazing pictures from lots of amazing angles. Leading up to the wedding, Sasha was a delight to work with. She was VERY responsive and willing to meet with us both over the phone and in person. She took the time to do a walk-through of our venue with us, which put me at ease to scope out where we'd take pictures. She even hopped on a Zoom call with us while on her vacation the week before our wedding. Last but not least, Sasha got us our engagement pictures AND our wedding gallery preview much faster than anticipated! If I sound slightly crazed in my obsession for Sasha, it's because I am lol. Sasha's beautiful spirit matches her the high level of talent and artistry in her work. This is your sign to hire her!
