As most hopeless romantics do, I love love. I love the small, quiet moments as much as the grand gestures. It is a unique honor to be the one to document those details on a wedding day. I believe deeply that love is as close as we’ll ever get to magic.

We couldn't be more impressed with Jenn's photography. Her ability to capture our emotions and those special moments in her photos is what truly sets her apart. Every time I see a picture from our shoot, I'm immediately taken back to that moment and fall even more in love. During the shoot, we were able to play, laugh, and be completely immersed in each other all while Jenn captured us in our purest forms. We will definitely be asking for more photos from her in the future!

Being the daughter of first-generation immigrants, I saw how precious photos become in life. Some photos are the only tangible connection we have to a person or place that is dearly missed. Thanks to my dad, I was introduced to the world of photography the same day I was introduced to the world. Because of my parents, our memories growing up are preserved. When I was 6, I received my own camera, marking the beginning of a lifelong dedication to documenting every aspect of my life.

At that moment, fully understanding just how fleeting life truly is, that started our love affair with wedding photography. We love how wedding photography does not have to be corny or grossly over staged. It can be candid, genuine, and provide amazing couples with images that they will cherish for a lifetime.

I cannot explain how amazing this husband and wife team are! Jillian and Ryan were an absolute dream to work with. Hands down our favorite vendors!! So easy to work with and their photography skills are out of this world. We will cherish our pictures forever. And they couldn't be more down to earth.

Snowdrop Creative Co. was born from a dream. A dream that I could do the things that I LOVE, be present for my children and my partner, and create work that I am proud of. It sounds like what we all wish for, right? Well, it isn't always so simple as "I want this, so I'm doing it." I spent ten years in retail management. I spent long days away from my family, only to get home to them and be too tired to enjoy my time with them. My life was cold and dreary, and I knew something had to change. And so, Snowdrop was born. A place where I can create and love what I do. Capture memories and magic and joy in a single moment.

Alex photographed AND officiated our little last minute Vegas elopement and we had so much fun! She was incredibly creative and got some of the coolest shots. She even managed to capture those sweet little moments you didn’t even know you’d want photos of. She made the whole process easy, fun, STRESS FREE and made me feel beautiful on my wedding day.

So many times when I present a collection of images to a couple they'll find themselves overwhelmed with emotion. I've thought a lot about this and believe it's because so much happens so fast on a wedding day that your mind can only process a certain amount in the moment. When you see those authentic images that tell your story all of the information that your mind stored during your wedding is released. It's amazing how powerful images are. I am grateful to be able to give my couples photos that they'll treasure for life.

For our engagement photos, Ishan and Preeti were willing to drive aroubd local towns and take photos at numerous locations that meant something special to us. They are so creative with light and texture and are daring to go anywhere. And then our wedding day..Oh My Goodness. I have never seen such beautiful photos. We got married in Montauk, NY and after our first look, we went out by the lighthouse and took photos over the bluffs. They are INCREDIBLE!!!!!!!!!! We got married at a yacht club and we had mentioned to Ishan how we would love a photo on a big yacht. He again rose to the occasion. We found friendly boat owners who let us board their yacht and Ishan got photos of us opening champagne and drone photos of us lying on the bow. He thinks on his feet and comes up with awesome photos in any circumstance. Ishan Fotografi really captured the highlights of the wedding perfectly. The photos were available by the time we were back from our honeymoon. We just received our album, which is not only breathtaking, but really tells the story of the wedding day.

We are a husband and wife photography and videography team and have been shooting weddings for over a decade strong. The name says it all… we’re just different. If you don’t want cookie cutter video and images… look no further.

As a wedding planner since 2005, I have long standing relationships with so many photographers and video teams whose work I truly admire. When choosing who to work with for my own wedding day, I went with my gut! I knew Jenn and Colin could make me laugh and tell me when I needed to relax... I knew Jenn could put our nine groomsmen in-line when we needed to get a shot... I knew she would take plenty of detail photos because I told her one hundred times how important it was to me... Most importantly I knew that both Jenn and Colin would put their whole heart and energy into documenting our two day celebration in a truly genuine way, ugly cries and all! Thank you for allowing us to be ourselves... For capturing all the moments we never want to forget ... Jenn, Colin and team you have given us a treasure of memories to keep and for that we are truly grateful!

We are Danny and Ryan, a husband and wife photo and wife team! Our goal is to capture memories that you can feel. We want you to be able to relive your day in an authentic way. We have photographed and filmed over 20 weddings in the past year and hope we can add yours to the list :)

Ryan and Danny are a fantastic team. I reached out to Ryan, and she has been wonderful to work with. She was on top of communication and scheduling. We met to take pictures, and they spent the time helping us pose since we are not natural in front of the camera. The pictures came out beautifully and we fell in love with every image they captured. We will definitely be using them again!! Thank you again for the fantastic photographs, Ryan and Danny!

We are Cynthia and Rich Davis, the husband and wife duo behind Cyn Davis Photography. Based in Steubenville, OH, we will go just about anywhere to find adventure. We met in Phoenix, AZ as preteens, becoming quick friends. That friendship blossomed into love. Our love story has taken us through many highs and lows. Through every worst of times, we've grown stronger, fallen deeper in love, and found the best of times. We believe communication, selflessness, and laughter are vital in keeping the romance burning.

Cindy and Rick capture the most beautiful photos of my daughter’s recent wedding. They took time to make sure every shot was perfect. They caught every special moments and the candid photos I’m sure will help us remember special moments and special people. I don’t think my daughter and new son in law could have picked a more perfect photographer .

We're a pair of super fun wedding photographers, filmmakers + elopement planners (also officiants) and we're already your biggest fan <3 Award winning! Multi published! Featured in magazines! Neurodivergent! LGBTQ+! Artistic! Unique! Vintage videos! One-of-a-kind timelapse films! We love working with film + vintage video cameras, capturing little moments others forget about, and creating portraits that would make David Lynch + Alexander McQueen weep with excitement. Contact us anytime day or night and we'll be super pumped to get to know you and explain more of what makes us so unique.

I cannot recommend Requiem Images enough. I randomly found them on Instagram when I was searching for an elopement photographer. Being a photographer myself, I am extremely particular and was a bit afraid I’d never find someone to live up to my expectations. Not only did kitty meet my expectations, she exceeded them. From start to finish, I was impressed with the professionalism and love that poured out of this amazing human. I am, per my own designation, an incredibly awkward subject. I’m used to hiding behind the camera, but Kitty made me feel so comfortable. I honestly can’t believe the images she was able to capture. Her attention to detail and ability to make people feel at ease are truly a gift. Not only did I use her for our elopement, but I also subsequently hired her for our family pictures, and then my own branding session. She has raw talent and an eye for the extraordinary. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Requiem Images to everyone I know (or don’t know!). Book them immediately. You will not regret it!!

Paige Kowal Photography offers wedding, elopement, engagement, lifestyle, family, newborn, & brand photography. We work closely with clients from Harrisburg to Philadelphia & beyond - including destination weddings. Paige has always had an eye for design. As a child, she would bring her ideas to life through fashion design sketches & dream-home floor plans, & she collected clippings from advertisements. Always with a camera in hand & an old nostalgic soul, Paige treasures the value of a photo - a moment held in time, passed down for generations.

Paige is a joy to work with and incredibly talented at what she does. She makes sure she understands your vision to execute it perfectly for your big day. I was recommended to Paige because I wanted direct flash photography with a vintage vibe. Not only did we get the best photos with a mix of editorial and candid, but she completely nailed the look I was going for and included some more traditional first look shots as well! My husband and I aren’t models by any means, but we felt totally comfortable to be ourselves the entire day because Paige (and her second shooter Mackenzie) made us feel completely at ease. Cannot say enough good things about Paige. You will be gawking at your photos the minute you get them!!

Capturing the perfect shot isn't just about clicking a button – it's about feeling the vibe of the room with finesse and a special eye. From directing family formals to wrangling tipsy groomsmen (hey, it happens!), I've got the knack for orchestrating those must-have photos. I also know when to step back and snag those authentic, unfiltered moments (like drunk groomsmen dancing!) that make your story complete.

Kenzie Gates Photo was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding photography. Kenzie's communication throughout the planning process was fast, quick, and informative - she always responded to messages within a day and kept us updated on timelines and details. The quality and value of her work is magnificent, breathtaking and phenomenal. She perfectly captured the special moments of our wedding day and got all the pictures we could have ever dreamed of. Her artistic eye and talent shine through in the photos. The final wedding album she designed told the story of our love beautifully. I would highly recommend Kenzie Gates Photo to any couple looking for a photographer who delivers exceptional results and is a pleasure to work with.

Visit our website by clicking the globe icon below to start planning! We are Josh & Taylor, your go-to husband and wife photo & video team! Together, we bring authenticity to every shot. We love the details, the candid moments, the tears and the laughter that we can capture. Watching families come together and grow – it’s such an amazing experience for us.

Where to begin? I imagine if you are reading this section you are looking to see how the experience other couples had with JTR Media was and if you should consider hiring them. Well here is the short answer from one couple that had the pleasure of getting to work with Josh and Taylor for our wedding… absolutely yes! Josh and Taylor did the photography and videography for our March 2023 Disney Wedding. From the initial discussions of planning to the day of execution, JTR were very personable, professional, and knowledgeable. We originally were planning to work with Disney but due to the lack of knowledge of which photographer you could get until a couple of weeks out, we elected to go with a more sure thing and personal touch. We had a bunch of things Disney was covering and looking back at all the wedding choices, we are so glad we got JTR to cover our wedding. What separates them? Well I can’t speak for every couple’s experience but from Day 1 they made it about us. They listened to what images we absolutely needed, provided suggestions for other locations or experiences we could do, and engaged with us through the Disney planning process to make sure everything Day of was out of the bride and groom’s hands and under control. They had a great questionnaire that was thorough and helped establish a foundation for the picture catalog. Getting the images back, well that’s just as great as working with them. Wow! We constantly get compliments on how the images capture the spirit of the moment. You see such amazing emotions from all of our wedding guests at different stages of the wedding! The turn around time was great and accessing the images and video is a breeze. So if you made it to the end of this review my hats off to you but I wanted to elaborate on the experience because it is an anxious decision about selecting wedding vendors. With JTR you can count on a professional product with the personal experience. We will forever be grateful to Josh and Taylor and can’t recommend them enough!
