Nick Finochio Photography 

5.0

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,100
  • Serves Defiance, PA

Hi! My name is Nick. I fell in love with photography as a child through my love for music; I was obsessed with album covers and photos that would draw my eye and immediately tell me a story. I have a passion for art and my way of expressing it has always been through music and photography. I love hanging out with my friends and being social. Going out to dinner, having drinks, and spending time with my family are a few of my favorite things.

We never even looked for another photographer when planning our wedding. We new from the start that we would use Nick Finochio Photography. We had seen his work for many years prior to our wedding and we were in awe at his attention to detail and overall style of photography. When it came time for our wedding, Nick delivered beyond our expectations. His calm manner was exactly what we needed on our big day and he made us and our bridal party feel so at ease in front of the camera. Nick realizes the style you are going for with your wedding theme and personalities and turns that into a story with his photos. We HIGHLY recommend Nick for your wedding day and promise that you will be blown away by his work.

Love Knot Photography

  • Serves Defiance, PA

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
We loved Isaac and his wife, Jing, who photographed our wedding earlier this month. Isaac was super calm and collected and on top of everything. His photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking. He was very considerate when I first reached out about his work and wanted to use him and was very mindful of his travel fees to fit in our budget.

Lucid Memories Photography by Delycia 

5.0

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Defiance, PA

I’m a high energy self taught photographer, I started this beautiful journey 4 years ago. Lucid Memories Photography by Delycia has been published in about 15 portrait magazines and participated in countless collaborations with other great small businesses in my area. I fell in love with telling couples love stories so quickly! There was something about photographing two people in love and telling their story. I firmly believe your photos should show you and your partners personalities. There’s nothing better than being able to be comfortable, and act like yourself for those lifelong pictures!

Awarded Best of Zola
There aren’t enough words to describe the absolute icon that is Delycia. My husband and I initially reached out to her because she had photographed weddings at our original venue, and we were completely sold after looking through her portfolio. Her moody, emotional, and intimate photos were exactly what we envisioned. We are not “cookie-cutter” wedding photo people, and with every set of photos we reviewed, we found ourselves literally gasping. Our gut feeling was only reinforced once we started talking to her and getting to know her. Neither my husband nor I had ever had professional photos taken, but our engagement shoot was so much fun. It felt like hanging out with a long-time friend, coupled with Delycia’s incredible ability to give just enough direction to create stunning photos while still capturing “us.” We couldn’t stop gushing about her afterward. When we had to drastically change our venue’s location, we were worried it would be too far for her. But Delycia, being the flexible and amazing human she is, happily agreed and continued to be our photographer without hesitation. The lead-up and preparation could not have gone smoother. Every check-in with Delycia turned into a 30-minute chat about life, wedding planning, and whatever came up that day. Our wedding day was absolutely chaotic—things started late, I got injured, and general mayhem ensued. But Delycia was there to navigate it all, ensuring we got the photos we wanted—and so much more. She even ushered us out of our reception to take couple photos that turned out to be the most incredible images of the entire evening, photos we will treasure forever. Delycia isn’t just a photographer; she’s a director, choreographer, personal hype-woman, and miracle worker. Not to mention, she sent us first-look photos during our wedding afterparty, delivered final digital edits within a month, and had our prints ready within two months! If I had to plan another wedding, Delycia at Lucid Memories would be the only person I’d trust with my photos. In fact, I’m already figuring out the next time I can work with her! She’s not just my photographer; she’s my friend for life!

We are all here for you. All your family, your friends and I (yes, me too!) are here to honor you on your wedding day! As excited as I am to get to the dancefloor with you guys, I know a lot of planning goes into making your day special. As your photographer, I’ve been to a few weddings and am just a call or text away from any insight you might want. I approach every wedding with the same mentality, how can I tell the story of today in the most real way possible? I’ve found the best way to do that is to just be me. I allow myself to be present and listen to the stories unfold throughout the day.

Awarded Best of Zola
There are not enough words I can say about Gabe--he has been an absolute dream to work with! Literally anything that could've been thrown at him, he went with it, and executed beautifully!!! My wedding date changed THREE times because of COVID, and he was always willing and flexible to find the perfect date for him and all of my vendors. My wedding was also outside in Miami, FL in early April. Normally, our weather is pretty good and beautiful evenings are almost guaranteed. Instead, we had a storm unlike any other storm I have seen in YEARS (outside of hurricane season). There were TROPICAL STORM FORCE WINDS in our outdoor/indoor wedding, and Gabe somehow managed to get the most incredible photos EVER. We really emphasized just how much we wanted the pictures to be honest and candid, and the gallery he sent us is literally the essence of that. He truly captured all of the craziness, last-minute changes, fun, and love from our day. Gabe was so friendly, so easy to get to know, and we wouldn't have wanted any one else to be our photographer. So, what are you waiting for?! Book him for your next event!!! He'll be there, come rain or shine...and especially rain. :)

My inspiration comes from the stories around me.  In books, movies & art.  Long walks with my dog Cady Jane, time on the river with a fly rod, in the barn with my horses, conversations with friends and of course travel.  I believe that life is about experiences, relationships and ultimately love.   These things certainly are what fuels the passion to make beautiful fine art photographs.  So that, in turn, my clients can have photographic artifacts that they find beautiful and inspiring.  Photographs that can fill living and work spaces, bringing joy to the viewer.

If you are looking for someone who pays attention to detail, will run with your theme and idea for a shoot or if you are looking for someone creative to help you bring an idea to life you have it all with Tami. She worked with my crazy ideas for my engagement pictures and took on everything on my Wedding day. She knew exactly what shots she needed and who she needed just at the right time. She is very easy to communicate with and her images catch emotion and memories that last a life time - which is something I don't find with many Wedding Vendors or photographers I have worked with in the past. She gave me her professional advice and lent a listening ear through my many date changes and frustrations as a Pandemic Bride. Tami, I haven't thanked you enough for your beautiful work that touches my soul everyday I see it. Thank you.

So this is funny, when I was little, I was obsessed with the movie "The Wedding Planner." So much obsessed, I wanted to be a wedding planner someday. Jump into the future 20 years and my obsession with weddings has brought me to here! I love photographing weddings! From the gowns, the florals, the venue to the couple and the journey they are stepping into together! Weddings are a special day for not only the couple, but two families to come together to celebrate love and life together as one. And your photos should represent that life you are creating. Colorful, bold and full of energy. So let's plan, have fun and photograph your dang day!

We highly recommend her for any new couples looking to get married!

Hi! I'm Emily! Mom to 3 kids, two rats named Frodo and Sam and a bearded dragon. I like my couples like I like my pets - just slightly unconventional. Dress fluffer, timeline-keeper, family wrangler, prone to squealing over a perfect ray of sunshine- I'll dance with your grandma, cry during your vows, and make you laugh at inappropriate moments. You're a badass and deserve the space to express yourself and your love EXACTLY as you are, no holds barred. Say goodbye to not knowing what to do with your hands, fake smiles in photos, and stiff posing that *just doesn't feel like you*. LGBTQIA+ and looking for a safe vendor? I gotchu!

Emily photographed some of our biggest life events over the past year. We booked her for our wedding right after finding out we were pregnant so she was able to capture our engagement photos, maternity photos, and in-home family pictures welcoming our baby all leading up to our wedding in September. Emily was able to make us feel comfortable in front of the camera with natural poses but she was also able to capture lots of candid moments for our wedding. We love her bright editing style which fit so well with the vibes of our wedding! Sometimes our emails didn’t like to work with her gallery distribution site, but she was always willing to try-try again to get us our photos!

Hey - I’m Tillie! Does someone putting a camera in your face make you cringe? Me too! I know having your photo taken can be awkward and uncomfortable. I take my time to get to know my clients and their photo goals prior to their wedding day.

We cannot say enough positive words about tillie and the work she did for our wedding!!! She was amazing!! From the very beginning of hiring her she was available and communicative and listened to all our needs and wants for our pictures and at the end they were perfect! She was even adaptable to parts of the wedding that were a surprise to our guests and we forgot to inform her that they were happing and she was able to capture those moments! She sent us a little preview of our pictures right away for us to enjoy as she worked on the others. I as the bride also had a slight issue with how my hair turned out and though most people wouldn’t have noticed, to me it was a huge deal and she was able to edit out the hair in the pictures to make it exactly how I wanted! The wedding website she set up was beautiful organized and easy to navigate for us and our friends and family. Would highly recommend using Tillie for any event you have!

Imagine this: an evening just for the two of you, where you can finally slow down and simply *be* with each other. No distractions, no stress—just the warmth of your partner’s hand in yours, the quiet laughter you share, and that feeling of being completely seen and loved. That’s exactly what I want to capture for you. When you look at your photos, I want you to hear the songs that mean the most to you, the ones that play in the background of your story.

Jessica is an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish. The patience she had and the creativity she showed was something many people aren’t gifted. Whatever image I had she always did a great job making it come to life. Whether it was a family shoot with all my nieces and nephews or a shoot with just me and my wife under a freezing waterfall to our elopement day, she managed to encapsulate emotions, personality and create memories that I will cherish forever! I highly recommend Jessica for all your photography needs! Throw your ideas at her and I promise she will make it come to life!

Think of documentary photos that set the scene and tell a story in a fashion-forward way.

John and I got engaged in our hometown but decided to do a destination wedding. We found dozens of photographers but Chelsey's photos really stuck out to us because it was exactly what we wanted. We reached out and she got back to us the next day (We messaged her at like 11 at night). From there on, she personalized the entire experience for us, all the way from meeting for the first time, planning our style and what we wanted, down to the exact fine details of specific shots that we wanted (And many more that she recommended) . I had no idea how detailed photography can be! But when our pictures came back, I simply could not believe the level of attention she took. Chelsey is not just great at what she does, she's very friendly and is truly genuine in caring about the people she works with. Girl... if I can nominate you somewhere, let me know. I'll fill that form out immediately! :)

Hi! I am Molly! I’ve been capturing the magic of weddings for the past 6 years, and I absolutely love the organized chaos that comes with each wedding day. My goal is to document not just the moments, but the feelings—the laughter, the happy tears, the quiet exchanges that make your day so unforgettable. Through my lens, I aim to create timeless images that transport you back to those special moments, so you can relive them for years to come. I’m here to tell your love story in the most authentic, heartfelt way possible.

Molly rolled with the punches on what ended up being a crazy day and brought peace and a level of expertise we seriously needed! Our wedding day was nearly 100 degrees and we had to pivot some outdoor moments to being indoors, and Molly immediately had a million great ideas for photos and lighting. From our initial call to a walkthrough of the venue to the actual wedding day, Molly was a source of inspiration. My wedding portraits are my favorite photos on the world, and she captured one-in-a-million shots of the dance floor as well. She really has an eye for the special moments and captured so many details I would have otherwise missed on the big day. She also just brings joy into whatever space she’s in—my guests were telling me how fun my photographer was, which I love! Highly, highly recommend Molly 3

Sarah was amazing to work with! We first did our engagement photos with her and knew she was the right photographer for us. My husband is not super comfortable in front of the camera, but Sarah and Jack (her partner/second shooter) helped put him at ease for our photos! I love her photography style and editing, and I feel like her team truly captured the beauty and love we felt on our wedding day. Sarah was very easy to communicate and work with and I feel like she listened to my vision and knew the key shots I wanted for the day. She also was incredible with time management, ensuring we got all of the shots we needed so we didn't have to miss much of our cocktail hour or any of our reception! Her turnaround time was also super quick, as we had all of our photos back in about 6 weeks (we also got married in September, a high volume time for her!). Can't recommend Sarah enough, we will continue to use her in the future for milestone photos!

Hey there! Since you are trusting me to capture these special moments in your life, I figured you should probably know a bit about me, right? I am a Huntsville, Alabama native, but moved to Nashville after graduating from the University of Alabama in 2013. ROLL TIDE! Although I consider Nashville home, I am anything but a homebody. I love traveling and exploring new places (especially the food at those places!). I even studied abroad in Italy, which let me tell you, was a food lover's dream. I have always felt like an old soul trapped in a millennial’s body. I would rather listen to Frank Sinatra than anything on the radio today.

Diana Marie Photography was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding day. From the very beginning, Diana's communication style was open, professional, and timely - she was always checking in to make sure our day was going as we had imagined. The quality of her work is truly exceptional, with a clean, timeless, and emotional style that captured all the special moments beautifully. Diana knows the importance behind wedding photos - they aren't just a social media dump, but rather the memories we'll cherish for years to come. She reminded us to take in the little things, and that thoughtfulness really shines through in the final product. We couldn't recommend Diana Marie Photography enough for any couple looking for a talented, dedicated photographer to document their big day.

We are so happy we chose Lucia to capture our elopement. Lucia is professional, fast to respond to emails and texts, helpful with decisions, accommodating to any requests, concerns, and excited to give advice. Duncan and I really wanted our photographer to capture our true emotion and to get candids of us, and Lucia DID THAT! The day felt blissful and a key point for us was that we got to enjoy the day without it feeling solely like a photoshoot which I think speaks to Lucias talent and confidence in her craft. She was good at giving guiding advice for posing without us feeling posed. I put together a Pinterest board and shot list which she really did a great job pulling inspiration from. The photos are stunning and the exact style we envisioned. Also, our sneak peak was huge and she got them to us very fast. If you are torn between photographers or are just starting your research, you're in very safe hands to stop here. We hope to continue reaching out to Lucia in the future when we start a family.

Bogdanov Photography was an absolute delight to work with for our wedding day. From the moment we first connected, Svat was outgoing, reachable, and prompt in his communication, putting us at ease throughout the entire planning process.

Jenni and her team did a phenomenal job capturing our wedding day. We felt so comfortable from the moment we first met with her and that definitely translated to how easy it felt taking direction from her for our wedding day photos. Her team took time to get to know us and figure out what we were comfortable with so it felt natural (we're not the most comfortable in front of the camera but somehow she figured out how to get those sweet in the moment shots without it feeling forced!). The photos turned out stunning. From the formal portraits to our mountain top vows to the sweetest candids she captured of me and my dad and my adorable nieces and nephews there’s seriously so many amazing photos to choose from. I also appreciated how organized she was with our formal portrait list keeping it quick and everyone ready to move through those as soon as possible. Cannot recommend her enough. Thank you so much Jenni! We absolutely could not dream of better photos!

I am a passionate Boho Upstate NY wedding photographer dedicated to capturing the love between couples, ensuring that these cherished moments are preserved for a lifetime. Life is fleeting, and I believe in commemorating those precious moments because one day, those tiny hands will be grown, the hands we exchange rings with will become wrinkled, and all we'll have left are memories. That's where I come in—I specialize in capturing the essence of your special moments, whether it's a Family Session, Wedding, or any significant life event, providing you with timeless images to cherish forever.

Abigail photographed my engagement and wedding photos in May and October. She made an already special time into something magical. As someone who has never felt beautiful, the way she captured the day made me finally feel that way for the first time. She and her second shooter were both so sweet and on top of every moment of the day. She was so organized and knew exactly what she wanted to do for the photos, making the day feel like a breeze. Her boho editing style perfectly complemented the fairytale/fantasy feeling of the wedding. Overall, a wonderful experience and I couldn’t have asked for someone better to photograph mine and my husband’s special day.

With over 10 years of industry experience, my strengths clearly lie in wedding and portraiture photography. Whether you're a recently engaged couple looking for someone to preserve your journey from fiancés to newlyweds through photographs, an expectant Mama hoping to capture your maternity glow or simply wanting to document you and your loved ones during whatever special season of life you're in, I would love to hear from you, I specialize in all types of portraiture but I am renowned for my wedding and engagement photography above all else. Whatever your photo needs are, I would love to chat and find out if we're a good match.

Sam was our girl from the beginning. She encouraged our pups in our engagement photos and worked around their lack of being photogenic. She pushed us, comfortably, out of our comfort zone. She was found by my Maid of Honor on Instagram and I immediately knew her style was what I had been looking for. When it came to wedding day I was most excited to see not only our photographer, but a friend. She was supportive, easy to work with and guided us in the right direction when needed. She knocked out our photos in a timely manor while positioning and giving great direction as to where to move to make the picture look better (something that was important to me). I am happy to scream her name for recommendations from now on & return to her in the future!

What obsesses me with photography the most is that I get to capture a moment in time that we all can recall back to. This can be a simple photo with a friend or an intimate moment with a loved one. All these moments hold a special place in all of us. This is what your wedding day is supposed to be about. A day filled with the memories of all your loved ones as you celebrate the start of a new journey together. A day filled with laughter, cheers, and tears and I want to be there to capture it all!

I’m Sabrina, an Austrian-South African photographer living in New York City. I shoot weddings, elopements and engagements — and as an avid traveler, I absolutely love shooting destinations. Raised between South Africa, Austria and Luxembourg, I spent long periods of my youth traveling the world with my mother. I grew up surrounded by the arts and chose photography as my primary creative outlet. I practice photography professionally , as well as continue to document the many people and places from my travels. I love to capture moments and tell stories in a captivating , creative and organic way.

We hired Sabrina to capture our wedding day, and I couldn't be happier with the results! From start to finish, Sabrina was professional, friendly, and attentive to every detail. She worked closely with us to understand our vision and preferences, and went above and beyond to make sure that we were happy with the final photos. On the day of the wedding, Sabrina arrived early and captured every moment, from my bridesmaids and I getting ready, to the ceremony & party, & everything in between. The candid photos are some of my absolute favorites! She has a keen eye for framing and lighting, and her photos truly captured the joy and romance of the day. Most importantly - she made us (especially my camera shy husband) feel comfortable and natural in front of the camera, and the final photos were absolutely beautiful. Overall, I would highly recommend Sabrina to anyone looking for a talented and dedicated wedding photographer. Her passion for her work shines through in every photo she takes. Thank you, Sabrina, for capturing our memories so beautifully!
