On top of them being genuinely nice people, they’re extremely professional, talented and really easy to communicate with. They respond to emails and calls very quickly and explain everything in detail while answering any and all questions you may have. My now husband and I hired them for our engagement session and wedding. Our engagement session was the first real professional photos we had taken together, so we had no clue what we were doing.

Their photo booth was also a huge hit with our guests, and we had a custom photo book made from the digital file they provided. My husband and I were so happy to be able to find a reasonably priced local vendor that could deliver on all of our needs. The icing on the cake was being able to support a small business owned and operated by such a delightful family.

My guest are still raving about Caroline! We are looking for more reasons to book her! She was absolutely amazing. She never missed a beat.

Spend your day having fun, not posing for photos. My approach is to focus on capturing what's really happening, so you can focus on making memories and I can deliver effortless, natural looking photos.

I cannot express how much I absolutely loved the experience. She was so accommodating to what we wanted. We struggle with queues and how to pose. We wanted more candid photos or posed photos that actually looked good since we don’t photograph well. She delivered and BEYOND. Her creativity with editing was so whimsical and made me relive the whole experience over again when I got the photos. If you’re debating, just book.

  • 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.

Awarded Best of Zola
I'd been following Nina Marin on Instagram for a number of years so once I got engaged, I knew exactly who to reach out to to capture my engagement shoot and elopement. As someone who cringes at being in front of the camera, she made me feel at ease and didn't hesitate to pose us or adjust our awkward hands/faces/etc. The pictures we got back felt like us — Nina was able to capture not only the visual aspects of our special day, but also the sheer bliss. I'm so grateful to have worked with such an easygoing and trustworthy photographer.

Katie was a breeze to work with! I am not big on real flowers and wanted something that would represent my husband and I. Her prices are comparable to real flowers and are even more lovely! I love that her flower designs mimic real flowers and that foliage was an option. She took the care to make sure I had what I wanted and sent me multiple pictures during the process and of the finished result before we picked them up for the wedding. She accepted my feedback and made changes to the bouquets to match my vision. I still have my bouquet and my husbands boutonniere as keepsakes that remind me of our special day. I would use her services again and again!

Rachael and I clicked from the second we got on the phone. I knew right away she was going to help make this a stress-free process, and that she did. We worked with Rachael for our October 2023 wedding at The Otesaga Resort Hotel in Cooperstown, New York. I couldn't have been more appreciative for her opinions, advise, and organization. Rachael helped me to create my vision for our wedding and executed it flawlessly. She was easy to communicate with and I felt like I could be honest and myself. Rachael had total control over all the vendors we utilized (even the last-minute additions) while also being there for me 24/7. Throughout the wedding planning process, she was the best friend I never knew I needed. Rachael is professional, calm, but also makes you feel like family. She is so passionate about what she does and you can tell from the minute you meet her. Our guests were also obsessed with her - She's an amazing people-person and someone you want by your side. My only regret was not finding her sooner. Rachael is your go-to wedding planner and coordinator.

Hi, I’m Justine! I’m here to help you and yours curate the event of your dreams leaving behind unforgettable memories. I’m here to help you through a small backyard party to a 100+ person wedding at your favorite venue.

Greetings to those who are reading. My name is Shanice and I had the pleasure of working with Justine as a makeup artist for an engagement party. The event was planned and executed flawlessly. On my arrival, parking was easy and there were clear directions made for all attendees. When I arrived I was greeted by Justine, and assisted with my bags by others staffed by Justine to offer helping hands to my work area that was separate, clean, and spacious. My work area had amazing lighting already set up, a chair and table set up, and a personalized gift bag and refreshments waiting for me. I thought that it was above and beyond with service for her vendors. It felt good to work in an environment where I walked in with great impressions, service, and appreciation for my services rendered. I was grateful to have a setup that allowed me to work with ease and comfort. Each person who required makeup had a time slot and was on time and prepped very well. Justine did a wonderful job at making sure everyone was aware of what was going on and where we would be, if working. I appreciated her attentiveness to detail and how through her planning was executed. I also received an itinerary of the event and it was filled with beautiful moments and fun. As an attendee the setup of the event space was gorgeous. There was plenty of refreshments in a spacious and well decorated area. The food was also amazing. I loved the cultural diversity that she offered at her event to make everyone feel welcomed and comfortable. While I didn’t come knowing many people, because of the events and ice breaker games that we played, I left making many new acquaintances. Justine’s event was flawless and I look forward to working with her anytime and in the nearby future.

We harvested a relationship over the last 3.5 years and she’s nothing short of incredible! My wedding would not have happened if it weren’t for Lydia! She knows all the right questions to ask, she advocates for her brides, she is there to talk you off the ledge during the stressful moments. I owe it all to her- I sent her my inspo and she executed exceptionally on everything!! Lydia is worth her weight in gold- she has a fabulous personality, is detail oriented, and her industry knowledge put alll my nerves at ease! I felt little to no stress knowing I had Lydia leading the pack! Inquire with her- her work is unmatched!

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.

I am a healer, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, Intuitive Tarot and Past Life Regression Reader, clay artist, self-taught photographer, chased of natural light, bee lover. Photography is my creative happy place and for as long as I can remember, I've always carried a camera around my neck. I'm an art enthusiast, a hopeless romantic and a documenter of soulful memories and joyful love stories that will last a lifetime. I am meticulous in my work, yet at the same time, I can improvise in the moment. A wedding is never a challenge should it go off planned course, but rather a series of enchanting opportunities.

Luckily for me, I have had the opportunity to work with Ella both on a professional and personal level. She is one of the most easy going photographers to work with. She makes you comfortable in everything that you do. She brings out the best of you in every aspect. She has featured beautiful photos of my work as a floral designer and she has also captured exquisite photos of me as a person. I currently do and have in the past highly recommended her to all prospective couples! Also, her hubby has also worked along side of her and he was so pleasant to work with as well! She provides top notch quality photos, professionalism and turn around time. You can tell how much pride she takes in what she does as well! Highly recommended!

Hi I'm Katie! I'm a wedding and adventure photographer based out of Salt Lake City specializing in outdoor engagement, wedding, and elopement photos. Let's head into the mountains, out to the desert, down to the beach, or shoot amongst the architecture of the city. I'm Utah-based, but split my time in Upstate NY, and will travel to wherever you need.

Katie helped shoot our engagement photos in the mountains of Colorado. She helped us find locations to shoot and knew right where to go to find views and capture the types of photos we'd asked for. She made us feel so comfortable as she shot beautiful fall photos for us on a trip that we'll remember for a lifetime! We would highly recommend.
