Rayleen is perfection! If you are looking for a photographer that will not only give you the best photos ever, but also become your friend then Rayleen is your girl! I was very specific about the photographer I was looking for as our venue is very dark and moody so I wanted a photographer that does that same thing. From the moment we met Rayleen we knew she was the one. We loved that we were vibing with her right away and she got that we did not want a lot of posed portraits. We were looking for a lot more candid photos. We did out engagement shoot at the brewery I work at and the photos came out amazing. We knew then that we had picked the right photographer. We had the best day taking photos, we never felt rushed or over photographed. We got our photos back in about 15 weeks which I thought was great even though she kept apologizing it was taking so long! Thank you Rayleen for not only being an amazing photographer, but also for becoming a friend!

Rob Spring and his team were phenomenal! They photographed my wedding on September 29, 2024 at Inn at Erlowest in Lake George and I couldn't have asked for a better photographer. Rob is so professional and his eye for photography is superb. My guests were raving about Rob and were even more astounded at the sneak peek photos from my wedding.... which he provided less than a week later! My bridesmaids from Long Island were joking that Rob better make room in his schedule and travel down to Long Island for their future weddings haha When looking for a wedding photographer, he is definitely worth the money!! He even knows all of the best spots at particular venues to take photos, leading to absolutely stunning portraits. I would book Rob and his team again in a heartbeat! Thank you so so much!!

A New York native, she grew up on Long Island for many years where she received her BFA in Visual Arts from SUNY Old Westbury and now - if she's not traveling - you can find her enjoying a new coffee shop or re-watching The Office!

Awarded Best of Zola
If you’re looking for a photographer who captures not just moments but *feelings*, Thalia is your girl. From the second I scrolled through her Instagram feed, I knew I needed her to document our wedding. Her documentary-style photography is pure magic...she has such a natural gift for catching those small, in-between moments that so often go unnoticed. The hand-holding, the extended hugs, the quiet happy tears - she sees it all, and I’m truly beyond grateful to have had an artist like her capture those moments for us. We booked Thalia for three different wedding events (an intimate church ceremony, our welcome party, and the wedding day itself), and let me tell you...she did her thing! She was professional, punctual, and precise, yet brought this wonderfully calm, grounding energy that I truly needed on a day full of emotions. She also took the time to ask questions and understand my (very tricky) family dynamics, making sure to prioritize what mattered most to me while still staying true to her signature style. After we booked her for the wedding, we got to plan our engagement session too. I showed up with a bag full of disco balls, confetti, champagne, and multiple outfit changes, and she RAN with it! No hesitation, no stress - just total creative freedom and fun. She made me and my husband feel so comfortable, like we could be our fullest & most authentic selves. I’ve already recommended Thalia to my closest friends and even complete strangers because EVERYONE deserves to have their love story captured by her. If you’re on the fence...book her. You’ll be endlessly grateful you did!

From start to finish, Carly and Kasey were absolutely amazing! We first met with Carly back in 2018 and booked her for our 2020 wedding. Because if COVID, we changed our date three times and Carly was incredibly flexible and accommodating during the whole process. Her availability calendar being right on her Instagram made it so easy to choose our new date (keeping Carly and Kasey as our photographers was our #1 priority when rescheduling). She quickly sent updated contracts and was just so kind and understanding. Our engagement photo session was fun and Carly made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. Some of the images from that session will forever be my favorites of us. When it came time for the wedding, Carly was critical in helping me come up with a timeline. She knew our vision and offered suggestions and locations for pictures. On the actual wedding day, she and Kasey were amazing. We expected it to rain all day so they were super flexible about making last minute changes to the locations and timeline to accommodate the possible rain. The sneak peeks we’ve gotten so far have been perfection and I cannot wait to see the rest! Carly and Kasey are not just exceptionally talented photographers- they are good, kind people. They make you feel comfortable and like you’ve known them your whole life. I could not have imagined better people to know or to take our wedding photos.

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

My wedding day was perfect thanks to PSPi. He was professional, funny and extremely kind and creative. He knew all the perfect shots to capture. My wedding day was so hot and he dealt with me being cranky and sweaty and didn’t complain about the heat once. He also gave us over 3k photos to look through which was seriously amazing and it took us forever (in a good way) to go through all of the insanely beautiful shots from our special day.

Hello! I'm Florencia, a wedding photographer based in NY/NJ and I'm looking forward to meeting you! I'm fluent in English and Spanish and I found myself working with multicultural couples a lot. That's one of the many amazing parts of my work. I've been capturing love stories for more than seven years and I LOVE to do this for a living.

Awarded Best of Zola
We absolutely loved our experience with Flo as our photographer and hiring her was the best decision that we made about our wedding day. We interviewed a few photographers but had an instant connection with Flo who seemed so enthusiastic and genuinely excited for our love story and wedding. She had such positive energy and we knew we wanted that kind of energy surrounding us on our wedding day. She was also willing to customize a package for us to work with our budget and our needs for the wedding day which was so reassuring - and she is worth every penny of what she charges. We had an awesome engagement session with her before the big day, and even when I broke a nail on the way there, she was so great at keeping me from stressing out. We were able to relax and laugh a lot and be ourselves on camera, and the photos were stunning. We also appreciated how Flo kept in touch with us on Instagram leading up to the wedding and afterwards - it must be so much work to keep up with all of her clients but it really felt so nice that she was following us on our wedding journey. She was so supportive, liking our stories and posts and letting us know she was consistently invested in our story. When the wedding day came it was like we were meeting up with an old friend even though we'd only met in person once for the engagement session. Flo also worked with us to figure out the "wedding timeline" that every vendor seemed to want even though we were a little clueless about it to start. She came up with a plan for the most efficient use of our time to make the day go the smoothest and it really worked out perfectly. She kept us on schedule and used the questionnaire we had filled out to make sure she got all of the shots we requested. All of our wedding party and family told us how great she was and how much they liked working with her. She and her second photographer and assistant were ON IT and captured so many moments throughout the day, they didn't miss a thing! We were able to put complete trust in her and just enjoy the wedding. As for the photos themselves, her style is so beautiful and striking and exactly what we were looking for - we love how saturated her colors are and it worked perfectly for our jewel tone fall wedding. She has a passion for sunset lighting as well and the pictures from our engagement and wedding day at sunset came out so beautifully. For both engagement and our wedding, we had a bunch of sneak peek photos within a day or two which was great to tide us over while we waited for the final products. Communication and payment and the photo gallery platform were all super straightforward. We cannot recommend Flo enough for the genuinely positive energy she will bring to your planning process and wedding day and for the gorgeous photos she will capture on your special day.

Emily is a Hudson Valley based couples & wedding photographer. Her philosophy in photography is that a genuine connection with the couples she works with are the key to intimate, emotional photographs. She’s drawn to capturing honest images; pictures that aren’t just pretty but tell real stories about real couples.

Awarded Best of Zola
I worked with Emily for some engagement photos, which are pretty high stakes and high stress given the whole surprise/suspense element, and she was truly a godsend. - She was supremely helpful in choreographing and planning the moment, from figuring out what flowers/props to set up to coordinating with the hotel to make sure everything went off without a hitch - She has amazing 'bedside' manner and managed to make the photoshoot feel like a romantic extension of the proposal moment rather than an awkward cringe-fest (which both of us, as historically non photogenic people, were expecting). - The end results were phenomenal, we're beyond thrilled with the photos and feel grateful to have such a special memento of this moment I don't plan on getting engaged again, but if I did I would definitely use Emily ;-)

She listened to exactly the style of photos we wanted and organized the shot lists with our family and friends on our wedding day with ease. She is excellently priced for the stunning galleries you receive, she is prompt, always available when we needed to check in and as a plus, the site she uses for her galleries is so user friendly and we have all of our professional photos in one place.

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
Steph is a wizard, ninja, and a unicorn all rolled into one. From the minute we reached out to her she immediately made us know we were in good hands. She was clear, communicative, and professional, but every time we talked it still felt like talking to an old friend. (Several of our guests assumed that she WAS an old friend of ours who happened to be a photographer — that’s how warm and chill she is.) Ahead of time she was great about getting details of exactly what we wanted, so that on the big day she just slipped in and out seamlessly without pulling us away from the fun. She was also careful to figure out exactly what we wanted the vibes of the final product to be (candid, colorful, joyful) and she delivered in spades. The finished products are beautiful and were delivered quickly (both the digital copies and the physical prints we ordered). We cannot recommend her highly enough!

From that point we never felt anxious about any aspect of the wedding photos, because we knew we had found the best photographer we could possibly find, and we were totally right! We love our photos so much, and I can't recommend that peace of mind highly enough. She is incredibly talented and efficient, quickly understood what we wanted and managed to give us everything we hoped for without disrupting the big day in any way. Many of our guests have commented on how great the photos were and how amazing it was that our photographer captured them while never getting in the way. Working with Nicole was easily one of the best decisions we made in the wedding planning process!

Zina was so patient and thrived in a new atmosphere when I asked her to shoot my interior design projects. Her patience made it so easy for us to work together and we trusted each others talents and expertise to create her beautiful images. I will definitely be working with her again! If you’re ever doing an in-home shoot, she will nail it.

When you choose Nick as your photographer, you can trust that you're getting someone with an artistic eye, who can capture the beauty of every moment. With my background in various areas of art, I capture the details and composition of each photo giving you the organic look and feel in every shot.

From start to finish, our experience with Ellis N Design was incredible. Their communication was always prompt, clear, and incredibly helpful - they truly went above and beyond to ensure we felt supported throughout the entire process. The quality of their work was simply levitating; the photos they captured of our special day are breathtaking and we couldn't be happier. We didn't need to worry about a single thing on our wedding day because Ellis N Design handled everything seamlessly.

Booking Alli as our photographer was one of the best decisions we made wedding planning!! From creating a fully comprehensive timeline of the day, putting together a collage of Pinterest inspiration photos to know exactly what we wanted, scouting out photo locations at our venue the day before the wedding, making everyone feel comfortable and confident on the day of, and truly just working with efficiency, skill, and professionalism. Alli and Josh truly went above and beyond and we are so grateful for them!! Our friends, family, bridal party and everyone involved agreed that the Mannixco was the best overall photographer that any of us have ever worked with! One of our groomsmen said, “a lot of people with a good camera can take a good photo, but not everyone can be a great photographer like Alli”!! If you want beautiful wedding photos and a photographer who knows what they’re doing but feels like a friend at your wedding, I 100% would recommend the Mannixco to anyone!!

Lindsay is absolutely the best, from first connecting with her she has always kept great communication and always answers timely. We scheduled our engagement shoot and it happened to be a rainy day. Lindsay traveled hours to make sure she was there for us and despite the rain and conditions she made everything about the shoot amazing and fun, and worked her magic to make sure we got as many beautiful pictures and poses as we can even with the rain. She exceeded our expectations not only with the our photos but also receiving our full online album so fast to help us get our save the dates out quicker. We can’t wait to have Lindsay photograph and video our wedding. To be able to work with someone like Lindsay is such a relief she is truly the best not only at what she does but she is reliable, trustworthy, hardworking and dedicated to putting her full time and effort into her clients!

I started working as a photographer because I'm passionate about helping people showcase who they are and what they have to offer. I work to remove myself from the equation and let my clients take the spotlight. It's thrilling to jump into a session and come out on the other side having learned beautiful new things about a person. When behind the camera I'm coaching you ever step of the way - helping you feel comfortable enough to let your true self emerge.

Michael was such an incredible addition to our vendor team. He is thorough, creative, personable and thoughtful. He made sure we felt comfortable at all times and did everything he could to make sure we had the best day. We have not even received our full album yet and cannot stop singing his praises to anyone we can. If you are looking for someone to feel like they care about your wedding as much as you do, Michael Haller Photography is the way to go!
