Skylark Music 

5.0

Beacon, NY
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $800

Jesse and Justin have been playing music together since they met performing in a band at Disneyland in 2001. After moving to Beacon, NY around the same time, it made sense to start an official wedding music business to share their love of music with some of the many happy couples getting married in the Hudson Valley. One thing they love about playing music for weddings is the variety that is required of them. Every gig is different and they all happen on one of the happiest days of the clients' lives!

Awarded Best of Zola
Justin and Jesse are talented musicians and were lovely to work with. Justin was a personable and tasteful DJ, and Jesse’s piano playing made our ceremony even more beautiful. They offer a range of options and reasonable prices, they are friendly and professional, and I’m very happy with their work. I highly recommend them!

Awarded Best of Zola
Justin was lovely to work with from the start. He was booked for another wedding, but he paired us up with Rob, an associate DJ of his. Both Rob and Justin were so so fun to work with. Rob took the time to text or set up whatever zoom calls we felt we needed. For the actual day, Rob was amazing. We had dinner service, reception, and "after party". Robs killed it with his flow between songs, and was incredibly accommodating and flexible if we had any requests in the moment, and was able to dodge or handle any "questionable" song requests that came his way. We knew that he always put my husband and I's wishes first. We also had multiple people comment on how good the DJ was during the reception, and after the fact! He also went above and beyond to pull heroics the day of to get some of our DIY spot lighting set up that wasn't set up the night prior. Rob was incredible to work with, and just as fun to chat with. Will miss working with them, but absolutely will be following their journeys and would use them again in a heartbeat! So thankful for Justin and Rob!

I cannot say enough good things about my experience with Tyler for my wedding video. I booked with Tyler almost two years in advance. He assisted me in picking the best package to fit my needs and vision for my day. Regardless of how early it was Tyler always responded quickly and efficiently to my emails, questions, concerns, and requests. He was very clear and knowledgeable on the process throughout our entire experience. On my wedding day, Tyler was amazing. He was present, but not in your face. He worked extremely well with all of my other vendors, working together with my Photographers and making sure he got all the best footage. My family and friends even commented on how nice he was! I cannot be happier with the final outcome of my video. I cry every time I watch it, I feel like I’m watching a movie and not my actual wedding day. It has the perfect touches and brought all the best moments together to make the best memory of the most perfect day. I cannot thank Tyler enough for how amazing my video came out and how amazing he was throughout the entire wedding planning process!!!! . You will not regret your decision to get a wedding video and having it done by Tyler!!!!

I believe love is love and happily photograph couples of all backgrounds, orientations, religions and gender expressions. I aim to create authentic and emotive images for my clients and edit true to color so the work will be timeless. My personality is friendly and warm, which helps make my couples feel at ease and open up in front of the camera. I donate $100 from every wedding day package to a non profit organization (either the ACLU, End the Backlog or the Triple Negative Breast Cancer Foundation) because I believe paying it forward in honor of love is an excellent first step into marriage.

Jenna was recommended to us by another photographer and it was such a pleasure to work with her! We greatly appreciated how much she wanted to know us and our personalities in advance of our wedding day. We ended every zoom call or email exchange feeling confident in our decision to work with her. The weather on our wedding day wasn’t very cooperative, but Jenna and team were on the lookout for any break in the rain so that we could go up to the roof and get a few pictures. And she totally nailed them—they are some of our favorite pictures from the day. Jenna and team made everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera and also captured some incredible candids.

DJ Lou Paris 

5.0

Kingston, NY
  • DJ
  • Starts at $3,000

DJ Lou Paris is a Wedding DJ out of the Hudson Valley area of NY, providing an extraordinary service to my clients. From gathering all the important information about your wedding in detail to having emergency plans in place to make sure there are no interruptions. I go the extra mile in everything that is done.

My wife and I had Lou DJ our upstate wedding and it was more than we could have dreamed of. From the beginning, he was nothing but professional. He met with us multiple times prior to the event to go over music selection, flow of the ceremony day etc. His website was very easy to use and allowed us to have a large role in our music selection for the day, even for the reception dance portion. Everything was reviewed at least 3 times to ensure there were no hiccups, and also to make sure we wouldn't have to worry about anything on the ceremony day. On the day, Lou came in very early to setup and his equipment was extremely unobtrusive and sounded amazing. From the ceremony to reception (and especially cocktail hour), the sound was fantastic and there was not a single hiccup (even with an outdoor ceremony and cocktail hour!). His flow through the reception was so smooth - and as a former college radio DJ, his music choice to fill in the gaps between the 'must plays' we sent him were impeccable!!! If you have a big heart for music and want it to be the backbone of any great party while having one of the most professional guys out there - Lou is 100% your guy. Thanks again Lou!!!!

The food served was delicious and we loved our wedding cake! Another great thing about booking the wedding at Diamond Mills is that the hotel is attached to the wedding venue - it was very convenient for us and our guests!

You know that all encompassing feeling when you’re revisiting a vivid memory?

That magic is what I hope to capture as your photographer. It’s my job to hold those moments in time so that they don’t have to fade. You’ll forever be able to revisit the moment, see the exact way they smiled, revisit that incredible sunset, relive the memory and turn back time.

I can not articulate how happy I am to have found Jess to capture our wedding. She was extremely professional throughout the process and yet somehow now I feel like we are best friends?! She made the planning process seamless and we were happy to have gotten to know her during our engagement shoot. Then at the wedding - she was ON! She kept our families in line AND ON TIME, which is not a small task. She even helped coordinate a surprise with my husband that left me speechless! Our wedding was all about the details and she absolutely captured that. AND THE PHOTOS! Aside from being a wonderful person to spend the day with, Jess is a true artist! The photos are absolutely gorgeous, and my husband and I feel SO LUCKY that we get to cherish them forever.

DJ Fish is hands down the best. Leading up to our wedding Dave came to all of our virtual calls so prepared and helped guide us through the entire process. He was always available and definitely helped to take some of the stress out of the planning process. We were worried that our intimate wedding of about 75 people might not feel like a party but that was not the case at all! Dave had just about everyone up on the dance floor. He is truly the best at what he does and did so many fun things throughout the reception that made it even more memorable. He also owns his own Photo Booth which we decided to add on when we were about a month out and so happy we did! He sent us a Dropbox link with all of the Photo Booth pictures from the night which was great. Highly recommend! He was truly a pleasure to work with and we only wish we could party with him every weekend!

Jim and Sarah of Black Walnut Farm have created a haven for love. Every inch of their 34 acres is carefully curated for a truly magical experience. As Matt and I approached our forest ceremony enclave, filled with our loved ones, the happy tears were instant thanks to their attention to detail. We chose Black Walnut Farm, after exploring numerous venues, because of their perfectly decorated barn complete with 4 foot disco ball, manicured gardens, equally charming farmhouse to stay the weekend with family, smore station, popcorn machine, audio guestbook, and of course their property manager, Miss Lily, the barn cat. What we didn’t expect to be included in our wedding package was the amount of care, energy, support, and love we felt from Jim, Sarah, and the staff at Black Walnut Farm as they effortlessly managed the most memorable day of our lives. Thank you for making our dreams come true and for being the best wedding venue we could ask for! There is no place like Black Walnut Farm.

When I’m not photographing freaking awesome people, you can find me sitting on the couch in my husband's pajama pants, drinking coffee, snuggling my pets, and editing. Coffee and snuggles are my two primary love languages. My favorite Netflix binges are The Office, Shameless, and Friday Night Lights. Clear eyes, full heart. Speed date: I’m obsessed with Vermont, avocados, dark chocolate, and cats. Pinterest is only my friend for recipes. My favorite fair food is fried dough but I’m allergic to it - what kind of cruel joke is that? I didn’t study photography in college (gasp), but I did study music, and that kind of relates...right?

Erica is AMAZING!!! From our very first consultation call with her, my fiancé and I knew she was the best choice for our engagement shoot and wedding. We laughed and chatted and felt comfortable right off the bat. I have been told that you end up being around your wedding photographer more than almost anyone else on your wedding day - so it's super important you feel comfortable around them, so I was thrilled to feel like I have known her for years just over a Zoom call! Then, she managed to fit us in her schedule last minute, and drive over 3 hours to us in the Greater Boston area to shoot at the Arnold Arboretum! Talk about going above and beyond!!!! She frolicked around the park in the cold with us, LITERALLY climbing in and out of bushes and trees to get these gorgeous shots. You couldn't tell by the photos... but I was super duper nervous going into the shoot. I’m not a huge fan of my picture being taken… and the thought a professional camera made me feel extremely anxious. But Erica was so kind, and calm, and made me laugh and feel comfortable literally immediately!!! My fiancé and I are sooooo awkward too, but she expertly posed us in many different ways that make us look like pros LOL! A day that I had so much anxiety for… ended up being such a blast for both of us, truly. JUST THE SHOOT IN ITSELF will be a wonderful memory we will cherish forever. And then she got us the photos in record time, I couldn't believe it! So fast!!! And to no surprise, they were all incredible. It's so hard to choose a favorite, I have like 10 haha. I am beyond excited to have her shoot our wedding in the future. Five stars for EVERYTHING! Seriously. She is so incredibly talented!!!!

I could not recommend Jill and Melissa more for your wedding. I was very concerned about having a limited floral budget but I do not felt like I had to sacrifice at all in order to have the decor of my dreams for my wedding. Jill was consistently respectful of my preferences in terms of colors, types of flowers, and general aesthetics and struck a good balance between giving her advice / sharing her expertise and deferring to me when making decisions. I felt listened to and understood throughout the whole process and was thrilled with the outcome. If you are even remotely close to this area for your wedding, don't think twice!

I'm Carroll, a photographer for those who love to live a happy, fun life! I'm married to the most amazing man and together we hike, travel, eat a lot of Chinese food, and watch WAY too many Friends reruns (which explains my crazy love for coffee). I'm also a fur-mom to the two most adorable (and spoiled) little fur-babies, Levi and Chloe. The more you get to know me, you’ll realize how much I love the simple moments of life and to make the most of it all!

For several years, I have worked many weddings where Carroll was the photographer. I saw her behind the scenes, where I saw her go above and beyond for her clients. So as soon as I began wedding planning, I only had one photographer in mind. It was Carroll. She’s professional at all times and also knows how to lighten the setting when nerves might take over. Both my husband and I are not used to being in front of the camera, but Carroll made it comfortable and fun! Both our engagement photos and our wedding photos came out absolutely beautiful, better than we even expected! We loved every single one of them! We are so grateful to have had her there to capture all of our special moments! If you’re looking for a photographer who truly loves what they do and takes pride in their job, Carroll is the one for you without a doubt!

We met with them in 2019 for our wedding that was supposed to be in 2020, had to cancel the wedding, rescheduled it for 2023, and were in touch with them the entire dang time. Not only were they professional and responsive, their hard work, organization, and positive attitude helped our wedding day go off without a hitch. Giana came in as our day of coordinator and made sure everyone knew where they were supposed to be, that we were fed, that our vendors were doing well and had everything they needed, and that we didn't have to think about/worry/stress about a dang thing the entire night. They plan a heck of a great party - they were truly instrumental in making our wedding one of the best days of our lives!

We cannot say enough about how amazing Megan and Kenneth are! I first found them on Instagram and was immediately drawn to their photography style. When we started planning our wedding, I knew I wanted them to photograph our wedding. Throughout the entire process, they made us feel so comfortable and offered so much additional help recommending other vendors we needed. We are so blown away with the pictures and videos from our wedding day. They truly captured the joy from our day and we can't stop looking at the pictures and watching the videos. It was so nice having both of them getting different angles and their energy is infectious. All of our guests have commented on how wonderful Megan and Kenneth were and have loved seeing the pictures. Megan and Kenneth truly go above and beyond for the couples. While planning our engagement shoot with them, they learned that our dog was sick and would not make it to the shoot. They offered to do an impromptu photo shoot of us with him and we are so incredibly grateful to have had those photos with him before his passing. It truly meant so much to us and we cannot thank them enough for their generosity. We cannot recommend Megan and Kenneth enough! They are not only incredibly talented photographers, they are also wonderful people. We are so grateful to have worked with them and hope to capture more special moments with them in the future!

I grew up in Amagansett, NY, one town away from Montauk, hanging out at the ocean, riding horses, and photographing my plastic Breyer horse models in different scenarios with my little crappy film camera, always searching for the perfect light. I have since moved on to photographing people with better equipment and I still always search for that perfect light. I now live in the lovely Hudson Valley after a long stint in NYC and Brooklyn where I trained under fashion and editorial photographers before starting my own photography business almost 20 years ago. Full disclosure, I'm a little scared of the ocean.

Two Upper West Siders. Twenty blocks apart. How had we not crossed paths before? Or did we? Well, after finally matching on Hinge we made that happen and the rest is history! We have combined families and now as a family of 7 (three dogs, two cats) we have become an unstoppable force. We both share the same passion for photography, capturing the beauty all around us and making magic happen. Our dog Lucy, embodies love, kindness and poise. We couldn’t imagine naming our business after anyone but her. That’s how Love, Lucy Photography came to be.

Bethany and Raquel are artists of the finest caliber and they will deliver above and beyond your expectations. I cannot stress this to you enough: Book them immediately! They excel at both pieces of the wedding photographer's role: the experience of having them photograph the event, and the photos they deliver at the end. On your wedding day: They of course will follow your requested shoot list, portraits of family, and whatever else you want to prioritize for your wedding day. *But the real magic they deliver is that everyone forgets they are there.* Your family doesn't feel like they're being stalked by paparazzi or in a never ending staged photo shoot. I don't know how they do it, they didn't meet anyone in my family before our wedding, but every photo they delivered was an authentic reflection of that person and the moment. Nothing felt strained, staged, or uncomfortable for the subjects. Several of my family members, including my husband, don't love being photographed, and they were both so sensitive to that without losing anything important. They melt into the background and capture the smallest, lovely moments you didn't even know were happening. When they deliver the photos: The story of our wedding was told brilliantly in the first set of preview photos, which they delivered very quickly after the wedding, and even more so when we saw the full set of photos and the album. They are very responsive and delivered the shots exactly on the promised timeline and of course answered every single question we could have had along the way. They also helped us create a timeline for the day which kept everything on track and as planned which helped keep my head on straight! They weave the narrative structure beautifully - the wedding album they delivered (after very politely waiting for a long time for me to mark my favorites) is truly a work of art. 10/10 recommend to a friend!

She was also prepared with safety pins that one of my bridesmaids needed. She was super chill and relaxed which also kept us relaxed. Our wedding was mid November and it was pretty cold outside but Kristen stood out there with us getting amazing photos. Our sneak peak photos look beautiful and warm, you can't even tell it's 30 degrees! Later in the evening, she was about to leave but we decided we wanted more photos. We asked if she could stay one more hour and thankfully she was able to. We definitely appreciated the last minute flexibility. If we could do it all over again we would!

They were extremely personable and professional. Their equipment had beautiful covers so that they looked nice and blended right in with the wedding decor, rather than staring at poles and wires.

With over a decade of experience in weddings and corporate events, this isn't my first rodeo. Weddings are sort of my thing!

Charissa is an excellent planner and coordinator! I started working with her with our venue booked, but pretty much no other vision or idea of how I wanted our wedding to be. She was patient, provided suggestions and recommended excellent vendors to help it all come together, and was also on top of all vendor communications. It was also super easy to schedule time and get in touch with her throughout the whole process (15 months of planning!), even if it was just for 10-minute call to touch base on random questions that we had. She, Kevin and Melissa also did an excellent job coordinating day-of and making sure everything was set up, cleaned up, and ran smoothly. She was also available throughout the day (and into the winddown at night!) to answer any questions that came up. Having Charissa and her team really removed so much stress from wedding planning and the wedding day. Highly recommended!

Her timing and communications were perfect, Including plenty of mockups and vision boards during our preliminary meetings, and continued conversations leading up to the big day. Plus - I love that she works with in season/local blooms, in addition to other sustainability efforts. Photo Credit: The Lovewigs

I’m the self-declared winner of “most likely to hear someone’s life story in unexpected places.” Whether it’s an antique shop owner telling me about her and her late husband’s favorite meal from their Italian vacation 40 years ago, or a fellow TJ Maxx customer recalling how she met her best friend of 17 years in a shared hospital room, I listen. And not a polite listen, but an I really give a shit listen. At the core of my being, I’m story obsessed. It’s why I was an English major in college and why I fell in love with photography. If there is a story to be heard, I will listen. And if there's a story to be told, I'll tell it.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Lindsay on a styled shoot I coordinated. I cannot sing enough praise for this woman! Her photography gallery blew me away as every photo was so beautifully framed and each picture more stunning than the last. She is a master of composition and color and will capture all of those special details that make your wedding so unique! The sentiment of your day will be reflected in a candid, clean, bright and fresh gallery that will beautifully curate the story of your love. Lindsay will also make you feel COMPLETELY comfortable, giggles and all, because she has a contagious fun-loving personality. I highly recommend Lindsay and know that you will LOVE your wedding photos if you chose her!

Your wedding is a day that is filled with a wide range of emotions. A new beginning comes with more than just happiness. There is fear of the new, letting go of the past, the feeling of accomplishment from parents and loved ones and of course the excitement and joy in deciding to take a life long adventure with someone you love. My goal is to capture all of these emotions for you, so you can cherish and relive them for many years to come.

I've been a professional photographer since 2016 but really I've been invested in photography since I was 15 years old.

I have used writing, art, and photo to document my life and it is an incredibly special thing to be able to share that with my clients.

We will be there to make sure you’re picture perfect!

I had a vision for my wedding day to accentuate my long hair – soft, glamorous waves similar to an Old Hollywood look. If this is the look you're going for as well, you likely quickly discovered that this is a much more difficult look to achieve than you think. Better yet, most of the professionals who have perfected their technique charge well over 500 (one even quoted me 900) for the wedding day look and that didn't include a trial. I am all for paying vendors what they deserve for their skills and talent, but it felt so unattainable. But beyond that, these stylists booked up far too quick to even get on their books. Some others I was able to get trials with simply didn't have the skill to achieve the soft Hollywood style. I went to Coven for a haircut and met Alexis and ironically struck up a conversation about my wedding. She was inquiring about what kind of look I was going for and we ended up booking a trial for glam waves. When I say I was beyond surprised and overjoyed leaving my trial – and the wedding day?! I could not say enough amazing things about Lex. She even washed and styled my hair before my rehearsal dinner the day prior to the wedding (separate cost) so the amount of product in my hair was exactly what we wanted to work with on the wedding morning. She is the kindest, most professional soul with the talent to match. And as it is a very important factor in the process of wedding planning, the pricing is reasonable and attainable. The amount of compliments I get on my hair to this day anytime someone sees a wedding photo, and I will forever recommend Alexis and her team at Coven!! Don't hesitate to reach out and book for your big day – you won't be disappointed. Note: I did my trial in the salon and Alexis assistant came to us on the wedding day.

Hello! My name is Christine and I love weddings. I have been photographing weddings since 2005 and the more I do it, the more I love it. I also love chocolate, binge-worthy television and Betty White so much, I named my dog after her.

Dear Prospective Couples, In the summer of 2017, I had the opportunity to hire Christine Merson for my wedding. Besides the decision to marry my husband, she was the best decision of the day. If you have the opportunity to hire this talented professional I would recommend it. You will not be disappointed. Christine planned out the timeline for the entire event with me a week before the big day. Christine is a wonderful listener and was able to provide insightful suggestions to make sure the day was a stress-free as possible. Because of her years of experience, her advice really changed the course of the event in positive ways. Moments before the outdoor ceremony, the skies opened up and there was a downpour. The venue switched the ceremony to inside. Christine and her second photographer adapted to the situation as if that was the way the ceremony was originally planned. My dad was recovering from major surgery the day of the wedding. My father-in-law and godmother were also recovering from medical issues. Four days before the wedding, my husband came down with a nasty virus. Christine and her employee were able to capture everyone with a smile and with their best foot forward. Christine captured so many special and intimate moments of my wedding day without being intrusive. I will cherish each documented memory for years to come. If you choose to work with Christine, I am sure you will feel the same way. Best wishes!

Kristin and Demi were fabulous to work with. From our first trial, the vibes were relaxed and fun. My makeup wasn’t quite what I was looking for on my first trial and Demi really listened to the feedback I gave and blew me away on the second try. They listened to my concerns about sensitive skin and really made me feel comfortable the whole time. I don’t typically wear makeup either, and originally came in with no real idea of how I wanted to look, so I know I wasn’t the easiest customer either. They were fabulous with my family and friends too, catering to several different styles. My hair stayed in place all night despite wind and rain and a lot of dancing and my husband told me my makeup still looked fabulous at the after party! Thank you both for helping me feel beautiful on a very special day!

Not only is it a stunning location with a perfect mix of indoor and outdoor space (get married/take photos in a literal apple orchard, and party it up inside a modern-with-tons-of-charm taproom) but Devin and his team were incredibly helpful throughout the entire planning process. They answered our questions quickly, and were extremely flexible and helpful the week of our wedding. We were able to bring up boxes earlier in the week, set up the day before our wedding, and had private access to the grounds/taproom on our wedding day. As a queer couple, we also loved that Bad Seed partners with Big Gay Hudson Valley year-round, so we already knew they would be a queer-affirming space and our wedding day was no different. Everyone we spoke to / worked with helped make our wedding a magical experience.

Hi, Thanks for reading! Here's my photography short story: 2017, after 13 years of teaching, I said goodbye to the classroom and pursued Olympic weightlifting photography- my company was Everyday Lifters. Shortly after, I launched my wedding business. The Long Version: Weightlifting has taken me to places like Turkmenistan, Germany, & across the country! The weightlifters started getting married, and along the way, I received training to advocate for diverse bodies as a photographer. During this time of transition, I started taking documenting courses through the International Center of Photography and work on documenting local stories.

Choosing a photographer is always hard, it is even more nerve racking when choosing your wedding photographer. That wasn’t the case when we met and connected with Viviana. Viviana from the start was able to put us at ease and was incredibly welcoming. She was very open and helpful as we navigated the planning process. During the day of our wedding we felt like we were in safe and good hands. We didn’t feel like we had to act a certain way or pose in an inauthentic manner. We felt at ease and like our true selves throughout. Viviana’s approach and warmth helped us be our true selves and embrace the day to its fullest. When we received the photos we were thrilled about how they all came out. We loved that each picture captured a special moment on our special day. Whether that was at our first look, ceremony, or when we hit the dance floor. We included pictures to our friends along with our thank you notes. It was an absolute pleasure to partner with Viviana on our wedding day photography. We highly recommend her and her work for your wedding!

It’s Katie if you haven’t guessed already! I’m a photographer in the Hudson Valley. My goal is to give you the newest best friend you didn’t ask for and an incredible memory you get to keep forever. I live for the giggles, full heart felt moments and even shed a tear or two at almost every wedding I attend (just because I am so freaking happy). I can’t help but be so deeply intertwined in the moment that I get lost in the love and magic of it all.

I would HIGHLY recommend Katie. She travelled relatively far for my wedding but was energetic, easy to work with and willing to try anything to make our day special! She was timely, easy to contact and went above and beyond for my husband and I. 10/10 cannot say enough good things!

Welcome! I'm Anita. I aim to freeze moments in time, ensuring they never fade away. Picture this: the exact curve of a smile, the hues of an unforgettable sunset, the ability to relive a cherished memory and rewind time. I value creating a safe haven for every facet of your humanity. Whether you're camera-shy or uncertain about interacting with a stranger, I strive to make the process comfortable. Let's not just capture moments; let's craft an experience where, perhaps, we'll both discover a new friend in the making.

From engagement shoot, to family shoot, to the wedding shoot, and soon to be newborn shoot .. we couldn’t ask for a better photographer. She is willing to make whatever dreams you have come true.

We love when our clients are curious about creative design and the artistic process. Our time planning florals is an exciting process of co-creation and visioning.

We absolutely adored our wedding flowers!!! Working with Rebekah and her team was an incredible experience, and you could really feel her passion for flowers, colors and design in the design calls. We are so honored too that she took on the task to come down to central Jersey for our wedding and undertook her first travel trip. It turned out absolutely beautifully and transformed our church and lakeside reception venue into even more magical places than we could have imagined. Thank you Rebekah and it was such a pleasure having you as our florist!

Ahh you made it this far and I am so happy that you are here. Come get to know me a little bit better… I am a Hudson Valley photographer who occasionally dips their toes in NJ too. Having fun and capturing special moment with your loved ones and families is what makes my day. I am a girl mom to my favorite tiny human RyRy and a fire fighters’ wife and when you don’t see me behind a camera or working my full-time job as a graphic designer, I am usually soaking up the sun at the beach or outdoors doing something fun with my family.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot say enough good things about Katie! She was so wonderful to work with, and her work is absolutely STUNNING! I'm totally obsessed with my wedding photos, and how she captured everything that day. She and her assistant Lauren were so lovely and fun! From the first phone call, I knew I had to book with her. We clicked right away, and she gave a rough rundown of how the day would go, which made me feel at ease. It rained the day of my wedding, and at first I was really upset because I'm such a fall girl and I was really looking forward to getting those rich fall colors in my photos. Well, we still took pictures outside and Katie did NOT disappoint! As I said, I'm totally obsessed with my photos, and the ones we got outdoors still captured the fall colors and aesthetic I wanted. All I can say is "WOW!". I highly recommend working with Katie for your wedding!

I’m Cass, and I truly LOVE what I do! Everyone has a story; my lifelong love for creativity and background in the Arts have played a huge role in developing my own personal photography style and it's made me who I am today! Born and raised in the gorgeous Hudson Valley, I've always loved being outdoors. Incorporating the beauty of nature and landscapes into my work is one of my favorite things!

Awarded Best of Zola
Cassondre was the perfect choice for a wedding photographer. We did an engagement shoot with her ahead of the wedding and when we saw the photos, we knew she was going to do a great job. She was very professional and very friendly to work with leading up to the wedding. And for the day of the wedding, she knew exactly where and how to take the best pictures of us. We got back our sneak peek and are extremally pleased with how they came out. Cassondre is truly a great photographer and would be the best choice for any event. You can see the passion and attention to detail in her work. Thank you Cass!

Hi, I'm Jen -- a semi-awkward, nice person and a wedding photographer based out of the Catskills of New York. I am a huge fan of dogs. I love to tell stories -- even more so, I love to tell side stories, so rambling - I guess I just love rambling. I'm down to earth - easy going - and always intimated by writing descriptions about myself.

I've worked alongside Jen of Story & Gold Weddings for a few years and I can honestly say that besides being an incredibly talented photographer, Jen is an all-around wonderful person. She's creative, kind, reliable, and dedicated to creating a high-quality product and experience for her couples - and her artistic vision on wedding days continuously blows me away. I recommend Jen to all my family and friends who are looking for a modern, bold approach to wedding photography - don't hesitate to hire her!!
