Donna Marie Photo Co.

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Aurora, NY

I’m Donna Marie—the introverted, hella awkward + nerdy, all about the vibes and adventure(ish) soul that you can typically find behind the camera (rather than in front of it). I'm here to serve + empower all the introverted, awkward in-front-of-the-lens, adventure(ish) couples who want to have an authentic, non-traditional wedding experience across upstate and northern New York. What matters most are the emotions you experience as your wedding day unfolds. Whether that be in a place with easy to reach epic views, or any place or location that embodies who you are. I’m your go-to gal when you decide to take control of your wedding day.

Donna Marie Photo Co. was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding photography. Donna's communication was top-notch - she was available for questions and planning every step of the way in the months leading up to our big day. On the wedding day itself, Donna rolled with the punches when our schedule got a bit delayed but still managed to capture all the moments beautifully. Most importantly, the quality of the photos is truly amazing. Donna managed to take artistic shots that perfectly encapsulated the style and emotion of our wedding. The final edited photos were delivered promptly. We could not recommend Donna highly enough for wedding photography services - her professionalism, flexibility and amazing talent made our photos everything we hoped for and more to document our special day.

Awarded Best of Zola
Jess and her second shooter were absolutely clutch - they came EARLIER than expected, took a look at all the spacing, and planned out what exactly what we would do and where. Jess also managed my absolutely crazy family by figuring out who should be in what photo EVEN THOUGH she had never met them before. And she did amazingly beautiful getting ready photos. I don't know what to tell you except that I'm in awe of her artistic talent and what a complete steal she is. For someone who already had really high expectations to live up to from the engagement shoot, Jess hit every single expectation we had and more! We chose a crazy artistic venue with a courtyard, garage, townhome, and gallery - but Jess managed to find all the best lighting while also managing to keep us away from guests during our first-look photos. She has just such an eye for style it's CRAZY! And she captured all the small details perfectly. There's really no choice here - if you want someone who captures the real moments and gives you photos that let you remember what your wedding FELT LIKE - not what it looks like on a postcard, but the real gosh-darn emotion, then you need to book Jess. You 100% will be so happy you did - because the person behind the lens is also a gem. <3

I love to take pictures and I always have. For me, it started with spending time with my father in the darkroom as we developed black and white film. In high school, I went to Rochester's School of the Arts and focused on photography. Over the years, I have enjoyed working with so many beautiful couples on their wedding days, and I feel truly blessed to be the one chosen to be behind the lens. Let me preserve your special moments through photography, while you enjoy your day worry free, knowing that I have it covered.

Jose Almeida Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Aurora, NY

Weddings are celebrations that are full of emotion and romance all in a highly dynamic environment. Wedding photographs are timeless and irreplaceable so as a photographer, I feel I have a great responsibility at hand. I try my best to work with clients on their needs, provide flexible coverage hours and I work within their budgets. I am drawn to those unguarded candid moments. I attempt to portray an artistic feel that reveals feelings of emotion onto the viewer. Be it a gaze, a beaming smile, tears of joy or a blurred image to depict movement my goal is communication. It is these moments along with many others I feel should be captured.

Jose is fantastic! He has so much experience and very professional. Before our wedding day, he always had quick and clear communication. We loved his artistic eye and dramatic style of photography. He knows how to give good direction for those that aren’t used to posing or being photographed, and was always looking for the next shot. He definitely lets you be you and can still get amazing shots. We were surprised at how quickly we got to preview our gallery. After the wedding day, I realized that there was so much I didn’t get to document personally to remember the details from that day. But after seeing some of the shots, Jose had made me so happy to see how much he documented from the day! I highly recommend Jose :)

Ishan & Preeti | Ishan Fotografi

  • Serves Aurora, NY

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

Awarded Best of Zola
Where do we even begin with Ishan and Preeti of Ishan Fotografi?! Our experience with them was nothing short of amazing. My husband and I (and all of our guests!) would highly recommend Ishan Fotografi to any couple looking for talented, thoughtful, creative, adventurous, understanding, professional, responsive and downright fun photographers! I first got introduced to Ishan & Preeti a year before my wedding at another wedding they were shooting. I really liked their vibe/personality while working with the couple - they were really thoughtful in their approach and shots they took, had great ideas/visions and were really great at demonstrating poses for the couple because they're a couple themselves! I immediately reached out to them the next day to get to know them a bit more. Ishan and Preeti were very communicative from the beginning - answering any of our questions via email, text or phone call; inviting us to their place to see their work; asking us how the wedding planning was going; etc. We got along with them instantaneously and knew we didn't want to book anyone else. Not only were Ishan & Preeti great photographers, but also GREAT company! We loved every minute of our engagement shoot with them. It can get a little awkward taking photos in public, but Ishan and Preeti made it super fun and relaxed. That kind of energy and vibe cascaded throughout the wedding weekend. We were so appreciative of this, especially because they knew how to help us navigate stressful situations as they arose throughout the weekend and made sure our photos still came out great! They also took the time to walk around our venue and scope out the best places to take the different types of photos we wanted. We received our photos very quickly after the wedding. There are so many amazing shots we are having a hard time picking our favorites!! Definitely a good problem to have :) If we ever are in need of photographers again, we know exactly know who we'll be calling!

An easy, enjoyable wedding with beautiful photos and videos captured is why you book with us! My team and I are easy going, can roll with whatever is thrown our way and like to have a good time with the couples we work with. It's not just about getting amazing shots, it's also about enjoying your day while getting those awesome memories captured!

Awarded Best of Zola
Jason and his team were absolutely amazing on our special day. From the beginning of our time with him, he offered budget friendly plans that included so many perks that most photographers/videographers do not offer. My husband and I choose the highest package because we couldn't turn down all that it had to offer. Not only did we get a beautiful engagement shoot, we got another shoot we can use for the future, we received a leather bound guest book for our guests to sign, a scrapbook with messages of all the photo booth pictures our guests took, a highlight video of our special day, and all day coverage capturing all the special moments from beginning to end. Jason even tried something new and did a same day edit slideshow for us during our reception. He is so personable to work with and ensures you feel comfortable taking pictures. He accepts feedback and really works with you to create a unique experience specific for the people he's working with. We will continue to use Jason Pierce Photography for all of our special life moments! Thank you for a job that exceeded our expectations!!

I would highly recommend Ivy Lane Photography! We used Brittany for our wedding day and were so glad we did.

However - Brittany was able to set us both as ease, and capture some truly beautiful shots that we will treasure forever. Overall I was happy with the experience - we had fun during the process and were so happy with the end result!

Awarded Best of Zola
We had the pleasure of hiring a documentary-style wedding photographer for our special day, and I couldn't be happier with the results. Their ability to capture candid moments and genuine emotions was truly remarkable. The photos tell a story that goes beyond posed shots, giving us a vivid and authentic memory of our wedding. Their attention to detail is impeccable, and they have a keen eye for capturing the little moments that often go unnoticed. From the laughter shared between guests to the heartfelt glances exchanged during the ceremony, every emotion was beautifully documented. Not only did they capture the essence of the day, but they did so with a level of professionalism and discretion that put everyone at ease. They seamlessly blended into the background, allowing for natural interactions and genuine expressions to shine through. Their post-processing work enhanced the photos without veering into heavy editing, maintaining the genuine feel of the day. The color palettes and tones used in the final edits were tastefully done, adding to the overall storytelling. We wholeheartedly recommend this photographer to anyone seeking more than just pictures – they deliver an emotional journey through their lens. If you're looking for a wedding photographer who can capture the true essence of your day, this documentary-style photographer is an absolute must.

I'm a wedding & lifestyle photographer currently living in upstate New York and serving the greater tri-state area. I love photographing special moments between people and exploring new places, it's that simple. I'm also a huge yarn nerd, iced coffee addict and a lover of all things the color red. Let's connect - I'd love to hear from you!

Look no further! Claire is, by far, the most professional and reasonably priced wedding photographer in the Tristate Area. She was recommended to me by a very close friend who is also a wedding photographer. Claire started out as her assistant, but assistant she is no more! She is great at what she does and is extremely personable. We met for a drink and within 1min I knew she was who we would go with. She is calm, organized, friendly and good at her job! What more could you ask for? Besides our wedding coordinator, Claire was the one who made our wedding happen. Her timelines and schedule helped the day move along smoothly, she made sure we took great sunset beach pictures and (thankfully) convinced me to do a first look so we didn't completely miss our cocktail hour. We had 260 guests, most of them being family members, which would not be an easy task for anyone. Claire was professional and helpful and somehow it all worked out perfectly. The turnaround was very quick; we were able to make Christmas cards out of pictures she took less than 2 months before. We are still using her website to order prints (which come out beautifully btw) and will continue to do so! We are so thankful that this part of our wedding turned out as amazing as it did. Photos can make or break a day, and ours was a homerun!

The photos she took completely captured the overall warm and loving vibe of our wedding. She must be some sort of magician... or just the best possible wedding photographer... Booking her was easy. She was easy to get in touch with and was always prompt to respond. I'm glad we booked her early to lock in our date. She is a very popular photographer and she books up fast! We met Laura before our wedding to go over the details of the venue and timeline of the night. She is a pro so she can make any venue, even the warehouse we booked, look bright and not dark and dingy. Day of, Laura came happy and ready to shoot. Our portraits with parents and the bridal party were not only beautiful, taken in a field, but also super fun! Laura knows how to make you feel good about yourself when she's shooting you! She was also making jokes which helped make us all comfortable. The ceremony and reception pictures were just breathtaking! She captured how funny our officiant was, our special "I do" moment and of course our first kiss as husband and wife! During our reception, we had circus performers lead the guests in hula hooping and juggling... Laura was able to get some amazing action shots on the fly! Overall, Laura is the absolute best. She was the perfect photographer for our special day and I cannot imagine having someone else in her place! She is so talented, sweet, punctual and professional; all things you want and need in a photographer! We love her and will be hiring her in the future for family portraits!

I've photographed 100+ weddings and countless engagements during this wild ride of a career, that started about 10 years ago. Trust me, when I say, I have seen it all. From busting my best moves on the dance floor, getting that wild uncle away from the bar for family formals, to making sure you feel like the baddest B in the room..I've got you! Need help with a timeline, what to wear for your engagement session or what location is going to rock your world? I've got it under control.

Neither myself nor my husband are super comfortable in front of a camera. That said, Dani was AMAZING at making us feel relaxed the whole time. From the first minute of our engagement photo shoot to the last dance at our reception, we loved having Dani capture our relationship - awkward moments and all. Her photos are breathtaking and perfectly encapsulate our laughs, our emotions, and our love. We could not have asked for a better photographer for our wedding and I am so thrilled we chose Dani.

I also really liked that they have been photographing weddings for their own companies for years. Who doesn't love a good rebrand. On our wedding day, they were prompt and efficient. They did not miss a shot and when I got my photos back later I could not believe how many memories they were able to capture. THANK YOU for making my wedding day perfect.

When I’m not photographing amazing people, you'll find me hiking in the Hudson Valley with my family, brunching with my girlfriends, or planning my next vacation (mostly likely on a beach somewhere). I'm obsessed with warm weather, family gatherings, and sunsets. When it's chilly out, you'll find me with a hot cocoa in hand. If there's music on, it's likely country or throwback 80s jams. ALL people and love stories are welcome here!

Working alongside Debbie was a joy! I was a videographer to a wedding she was photographing. To the couple, Debbie was patient, calm, and professional throughout the day, and helped the couple not only stay at ease during some stressful moments, but also enjoy their wedding day amidst the hiccups. To myself and the other vendors, Debbie was collaborative, creative, and flexible to each of the fellow vendors specific needs for the day. Her photos from the wedding were authentic, timeless, and stunning! I would highly recommend Debbie Gander Photography to any couple looking for a photographer for their wedding!

My wife Nicole and I love to travel and are huge foodies. We have a dog and enjoy finding new hikes to take him on as much as we can. We are very family oriented and enjoy having game night with friends whenever we can :)

Matt and Nicole photographed our NYE wedding in the Catskills and they did a wonderful job! The pictures turned out beautifully. We were impressed with how quickly they were able to get our group photos done even though we had a big wedding party. This was especially appreciated since we opted for outdoor photos and it was cold! They were also very communicative throughout the process, including leading up to the wedding and during the wedding day. Despite our large wedding (185), they captured almost everyone in attendance in at least one picture. We know we’ll really appreciate that in the years to come as we continue to look back at the photos in our album.

I did not not grow up with a camera in my hand knowing I wanted to be a photographer. I started with photography by photographing Punk/Hardcore bands but eventually stopped photographing those shows because I didn't want my camera gear to get broken by someone stagediving. Being apart of that music scene help me cultivate friendships with people all over the world, and gave me lots of travel opportunities. Those experiences carried over into weddings helping me understand real documentary style moments and being comfortable surrounded by new people.

Yaritza was amazing to work with! She was the best we could have asked for. So nice and considerate and just perfect for our wedding!

With unwavering inclusivity, I capture the spirit of all my clients, including the LGBTQ+ community. I love what I do and because of that, I put my all into it. I want to capture the moments that reflect the genuine emotions and connections shared between couples. The candid interactions that unfold throughout the day. My aim is to create a visual narrative, a collection of images that transport you back to that magical day, evoking laughter, and tears of happiness. When sending your wedding gallery over, I imagine you looking through it together and I want you to be taken back to that day.

Working with C.M. Russ Photography was nothing short of amazing. Working with plenty of photographers over the years I have seen it all. He is easy to work with, a great personality, great turnaround time, and very skilled at what he does. I highly recommend working with him!

I've been shooting unique, non-traditional, very-traditional, queer, straight, weird, normal, sexy, just-plain-fun weddings for over a decade now. Don't think your wedding falls into that category? Don't be so sure. Your unique love deserves to be documented whoever that may look. If you want bad-ass photography that stands out, all while having fun doing it, we're what you've been looking for. Let's connect. We'd love to hear your love story.

I haaaate having my photo taken. I was super anxious about the whole process going into it. It takes a certain amount of trust to let someone photograph you... Jay and his Bellocq team were A from start to finish. We were blown away by A) the sheer amount of photos given back (they don't cap their packages at certain photo counts) and B) how seamlessly the entire collection flowed together from start to finish. We couldn't have asked for more. We will definitely be re-booking them for our family photos (first baby on the way!!!) in the future. Jay is incredibly kind and fun to be around, and just puts you at ease. That is the first thing you'll notice when you meet. Can't recommend Bellocq enough!!!

Glad you're here! I am committed to authentic storytelling, candid moments and fostering amazing relationships with my clients. It doesn't matter to me if you're getting married in your backyard, or in a ballroom- all weddings are beautiful to me.

I wanted a photographer that would capture the authentic joy of our wedding day and Anna was the perfect choice! Our photos are so beautiful and looking at them instantly takes me back to how I felt on our wedding day. We had both blazing hot sun and rain during our wedding, and the photos from both are equally gorgeous. Anna was easy to work with and was very knowledgeable on how to schedule photos throughout the day. I am so grateful to have such beautiful pictures that I can treasure for years to come!

I started in photography much as everyone else did. What was once a hobby in 2002 quickly became a passion. I started out with a 35mm film set up and would hang out in the city capturing candid moments of people going about their day to day lives. For me, it was like stepping outside the world around me and documenting it like looking through a window into a world I was no longer part of. In 2008, when I myself got married, I realized that a wedding day is one of the most emotional moments for a couple. Not only for them but for the families involved as well! It was Oct. 31st, 2008 when I shot my first wedding. I haven't looked back since.

My sister got married about a year ago and used Inspire me imagery, we had such a great experience it was a no brainer when I was planning my wedding! Lauren and her crew could not have been anymore amazing! I felt completely comfortable with her and took her lead on everything, the result were some pretty amazing photos we’ll be able to cherish forever! Shout out to Mediha and Jyoti for being a great addition to team! All smiles and there to lend a helping hand wherever needed The day started out a little shaky as most wedding days do(our wedding party was late to the venue) but once we got going we had the best time! Everyone was relaxed and having a great time, this crew captured some truly amazing and memorable moments! We’re struggling on which photos to hang up there’s so many good ones! Thank you Lauren for making our day even more special and for capturing some great moments for us to cherish! Hire these guys you will not regret it!

Ever since I was a child, I've been passionate about arts and culture. Wedding photography fulfills my passion in various ways more than I would have ever imagined. I studied photography at U-Arts and PCAD, and have been photographing weddings for over 10 years, throughout which I've been developing my style of photo-journalism. I enjoy natural and simple moments. When I'm not photographing or editing, I love spending time with my family and exploring places. Most of the time you’ll find me strolling around the city with my son in search of exciting adventures.

Our experience with Maria was excellent! We were initially overwhelmed when trying to select a photographer for our interfaith wedding, but seeing Maria’s photos on her website made the decision easy. We really appreciated her style of photography - deep rich colors and focus on the couple. Other photographers seemed to have a lot of strange angles and washed out colors, which we were trying to avoid. Hiring Maria was a breeze. She is responsive by email and always happy to jump on a call when needed. Part of her package included engagement photos, which were extremely helpful when putting together our save the dates and website. She is intuitive, yet also did a good job of asking us for our preferences to confirm. The wedding day was also a breeze, and Maria documented all of our key moments without being intrusive at all. Maria’s turnaround times are excellent, and she was never late with delivering sneak peeks or the digital albums. Finally, we also worked with Maria on the final physical photo album. She was very flexible and allowed us to have multiple rounds of revisions. She was very accommodating even when we wanted to swap out many photos for more preferred variations. It was a lot of work and Maria did not hesitate to help us develop the perfect album. Overall my wife and I would highly recommend Maria for any event based on our experience working with her for our wedding. Thanks Maria!

When I'm not behind the camera I'm hiking, fly fishing and doing yoga. I'll use any excuse to head north to the Adirondacks. (Eagle Bay donuts is my favorite incentive for a day trip.) I'm on my way to becoming a licensed yoga instructor. I'm obsessed with how my hair smells after a day in the woods. If you can relate, we'll probably be best friends. I live with my amazing fiancé, Alex, and we have two kids who are way cooler than we are. We also have FIVE cats and two dogs. I'm always down for a coffee date if you want to chat wedding details or hiking trails. I always want your dog to come to your engagement sessions.

Booking Jen Pecka Photography for our wedding was one of the easiest and definitely one of the best decisions we made for our January wedding! From the moment we met, Jen made us feel super comfortable and confident in front of her camera. She shot both our engagement session as well as our big day and all of the photos came out absolutely GORGEOUS!!! She captured every single detail of our wedding beautifully. As we looked through our wedding photos for the first time, we were able to relive the best day of our lives. Jen not only captures special moments, but the genuine emotions of those being photographed. All of our photos are STUNNING, I am having a very difficult time choosing favorites to print and hang in our home. Trust Jen Pecka Photography to capture your wedding day, you will not regret it!
