Nina Marin Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,600
  • Serves Cortland, NY

Hey! I'm Nina. I'm a pretty energetic and charismatic person that loves love and enjoys life. Documenting through photo is my favorite thing on this planet. I've been a professional photographer since 2016 but really I've been invested in photography since I was 15 years old. My love for documenting moments came from a desire to capture my own life and that of my friends using disposable cameras to using flip phone cameras and point and shoot digital cameras on beach trips with friends. 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.

Bethany was an amazing photographer and overall person to work with!! I knew when we first met with her that she just had a natural grace and ability to help us with our pictures. She made us feel so comfortable during our engagement shoot that we did in Philly, and she knew the best spots to shoot so our pictures came out beautifully. On our wedding day, she traveled all over our location to take pictures - you can tell she is willing to go the extra mile for her clients and her pictures are FANTASTIC. She is amazing and our wedding wouldn't be half as good without her pictures and her help. Thank you Bethany!

For Couples who are good at heart, that live for the seconds and party like no tomorrow. Capturing Authentic moments, focused on heartfelt storytelling. Based in the Southern Adirondacks, I have been wedding photographer for 15+ years now telling over 400+ wedding days.

My husband Sean and I got married at the Blue Water Manor in June 2024. We are from northern NJ and took a chance on each of our vendors through their portfolios and online reviews. Jason went above and beyond what we could have ever expected from our photographer. Since we were from out of the area we had multiple phone calls to discuss timelines and specifics really helping us think of everything. Even met with us the week of to walk through the venue and other places we wanted to take photos, just rolling with it and helping us get exactly what we wanted. Nothing could have prepared us for the crappy weather we had the day of the wedding but Jason put a smile on with us and braved it. Never complained about how soaked he probably got and just did everything possible to help us have the best day. And we did. Every single one of our guests commented on lucky we were to have a photographer like him watching him in action and our photos speak to that. Even though our wedding day has come and gone we would still book Jason time and time again.

Awarded Best of Zola
Wedding Planning, Some of the most stressful periods all leading up to your perfect day. Fortunately, along this journey you will meet some of the best people in the business. Ella came highly recommended from my wife and I’s friends and we began by reviewing her portfolio. Gray Magnolia's photos appeared absolutely stunning, the style with natural lighting and that personal experience to tie in clients lifestyle really stood out to us. My wife and I took a chance with an engagement session, Ella met us at a convenient location with excellent lighting and a plan. She was able to provide us with “model” photos via tablet to give us a baseline for poses which helped out immensely. The remainder of the session is what really stood out to me with the personalization our passion of jeeps and offroading took us on some back roads to capture those perfect pictures I was looking for. Shortly later the photos arrived and there was my future wife and I looking amazing, exactly what I witnessed in so many other couples photos. This really sealed the deal for me I was confident Ella would be perfect for capturing “our” day. Fast forward to the wedding day, Ella confirmed all details prior to the day and arrived on time and began scoping the venue for perfect area to capture our photos. All typical shots were planned with samples to show family members that are not typically photogenic. Next, a similar curve like the engagement session, that little spark of capturing my wife and I passion our dream car shots with specific poses we were looking for. Ella is a sweet person with a true talent, as a casual photographer myself I can appreciate every little extra step she takes to capture natural lighting and has an excellent style that just was amazing. Thank you Ella for capturing the best day of our lives. I would highly recommend her to all family, friends, and anyone looking to capture your amazing moments in life, do yourself a favor and review her portfolio and book a session.

Creativity has played a role in my life ever since I was a little girl. I grew up in upstate NY loving the outdoors and being close to the mountains! Although I loved where I grew up, when I graduated high school I decided to move South to Georgia to pursue a degree. While studying Fine Arts at the Savannah College of Art and Design, I fell in love with photography. I received my B.F.A in photography and then moved back home to NY where I became busy photographing weddings.

Meghan shot our engagement and wedding photos in 2015 and did such an amazing job. She was very personable, open to suggestions and had a great vision in working with us. She also had a very large and rowdy wedding party to contend with and did so beautifully. We were so over the moon with her and her work that she has become our family photographer. She has shot our maternity pictures and every year since. She is very affordable and does amazing work. She is the kindest person and it really feels like she's become apart of our family.

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 :)

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.

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!

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.

Scheduling was simple, Carrie was very friendly in her commutations and responded quickly to any questions we had along the way. We love how all our photos and video came out in the end and enjoyed sharing them with family and friends. Overall wonderful experience!

Love is what motivates and inspires me every single day. I am a hopeless romantic, and absolutely love every sentimental moment of a wedding. I strive to capture real moments, genuine smiles, and raw emotion.

Jenna was absolutely the best decision we made in the entire wedding process. Not only does she produce incredible work but she also has the most amazing aura about her. On a very busy and bustling day, she remained calm and brought a light hearted fun energy. It truly feels like one of your best friends is taking your photos. It was exactly what I needed on that day. I feel so very blessed that we had Jenna as our photographer. The number of compliments I have received on our photos is CRAZY and that is all thanks to Jenna. I would recommend Jenna to literally everyone that I know! Her work is beautiful, her energy is amazing, and she is so organized. What more could a bride want?! Do yourself a favor and book Jenna!

Hi, I'm Jacalyn — the photographer behind Jacalyn Meyvis Photography in Rochester, NY and the Finger Lakes. Photos should be timeless. No trendy wedding filters here. On a day as special as this, you should remember all of the important moments. In a way you'll love both now and in 20 years.

Awarded Best of Zola
I am SO glad I chose Jacalyn to take our wedding photos! As someone much more comfortable behind the camera, I was determined to find someone I could really trust with my very specific vision. Jacalyn delivered and more! Jacalyn took photos on our wedding day and during our Vietnamese tea ceremony the night prior. We also asked her to add on Super 8 film for our wedding day - and it was worth every penny! (For shooting the Super 8, she was accompanied by her second shooter, Bekah, who was equally amazing!) Jacalyn is truly a professional through and through. She was extremely organized throughout the entire wedding planning process and kept communication open. On the wedding day, I was stressed about a lot of things - but the photos were not one of them! Throughout the day, she was able to capture so many special moments that I would never have even seen otherwise given how preoccupied my husband and I were. I am eternally grateful for her ability to capture such details through her work. She not only has a great eye and instinct, but her editing style is impeccable. It's so timeless and natural, and exactly what I wanted! My husband and I are already talking about booking subsequent photoshoots with her for anniversaries and future events.
