Awarded Best of Zola
We had an amazing experience with The Hook Club for our wedding. Dan and his team were so easy to work with, and their 5-piece DJ band was the perfect, fun switch-up from a traditional band for our June wedding at Greenpoint Loft. We also had a ceremony guitarist and a saxophonist with tracks for the cocktail hour, which added great touches to the day. The uplights they brought for the room were priced very well and created a beautiful atmosphere. The music planning worksheet they provided was incredibly helpful, and they offered valuable advice on the timeline and flow of the reception, which was a huge help. They were fun to work with, and on the night of the wedding, they absolutely crushed it. The music was fantastic, they kept the vibes high, and their crowd engagement was excellent. We highly recommend The Hook Club for any event. They made our wedding unforgettable!

Gage Horne Studios

  • Videographer

  • Starts at $2,600
  • Serves Durham, CT for additional fees

My name is Gage Horne, the owner of Gage Horne Studios. I started my company in 2019 (officially) but have been doing video work starting at the age of 11. It started as gaming videos uploaded to YouTube, to shooting professional dance films in college, to starting my own Video Production Service. I found true passion in my work when I realized how important wedding videos are. I had already shot 100+ films before my wedding but realized as a consumer how valuable it is. I love what I do and finding intriguing/interesting ways to display those pieces is what keeps me creative and constantly making my films better.

Awarded Best of Zola
Absolutely amazing. Gage was fantastic! I was super uncomfortable with my weight gain and he made me feel like a queen on our day! He was incredibly sweet and not pushy at all. The final result was brilliant, made me cry all over again....!

Justin was lovely to work with from the start. He was booked for another wedding, but he paired us up with Rob, an associate DJ of his. Both Rob and Justin were so so fun to work with. Rob took the time to text or set up whatever zoom calls we felt we needed. For the actual day, Rob was amazing. We had dinner service, reception, and "after party". Robs killed it with his flow between songs, and was incredibly accommodating and flexible if we had any requests in the moment, and was able to dodge or handle any "questionable" song requests that came his way. We knew that he always put my husband and I's wishes first. We also had multiple people comment on how good the DJ was during the reception, and after the fact! He also went above and beyond to pull heroics the day of to get some of our DIY spot lighting set up that wasn't set up the night prior. Rob was incredible to work with, and just as fun to chat with. Will miss working with them, but absolutely will be following their journeys and would use them again in a heartbeat! So thankful for Justin and Rob!

After working in salons in New York City and Long Island, she now runs her own business, Palla Beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
Let me start off by saying I LOVED MY WEDDING DAY HAIR! Hair can be a scary thing for me, as I have always had very thick and stubborn hair and often hairstylist are intimidated or make weird comments as they're working on my hair :( Not Nicole though. She celebrated my hair and went into it with excitement! Working with Nicole was a relief. As a wedding/event planner myself, the logistics and details of my day/morning were very important to me. Nicole was patient with my ever evolving mood board changes, made great suggestions and asked all of the right questions. She was great with coordinating with our makeup artists, scheduling everything with enough buffer time to make sure the wedding party had time to eat a lunch! After listening to my hair style ideas, we eventually narrowed down on a middle part with Hollywood waves to compliment my wavey wedding dress. I would absolutely recommend Palla Beauty if you’re looking for a sweet human being who also does a 5 star job on your wedding day hairstyle.

Hi, I'm Kristen and I'm so excited you are here! I've been a wedding photographer for 17 years with hundreds of weddings under my belt. Diversity and inclusivity are very important to me both personally and professionally, so no matter who you are I want to document your love story.

Awarded Best of Zola
We cannot say enough good things about Kristen. Kristen knows how to capture the moment exactly how it happens and the emotional ride shines through in her photos. When everyone is at the height of their emotions, she’s there telling that story through her work. The attention to detail simply blew us away. Kristen is a magical story teller. Working with Kristen is also such a gift because of who she is as a human being. The love she has for her art is apparent right off the bat - but it’s the love she brings for all the people in her life that makes the biggest difference. She uses the love she has for her beautiful family to drive her work and in turn, we ended up feeling like family. She is down to earth, kind, knows how to party, funny, and the most open-minded human. She doesn’t judge anyone and we felt completely comfortable being vulnerable in front of her. Kristen bends over backwards (sometimes literally) to deliver the gallery of dreams. And she did that for us on three separate occasions. Each time we went through them, we cried, laughed, and felt like we went back in time and relived some of the best moments of our lives. Everyone is welcome and beautiful at Beck Photo Co. and in our opinions, that is such a beautiful gift to this world. Thank you, Kristen!

We originally found Thalia on TikTok and she captured the most magical engagement photos for us in NYC (we’re from Melbourne, Australia). She then made our absolutely dreams come true and agreed to come to Melbourne to shoot our wedding!!!!!!!! We had the most magical week with her and she made our friends and family feel so comfortable in front of the camera, and she captured the most incredible moments for us. Due to a mix up with our officiant on the day, we couldn’t actually get legally married - so we’ll be going to city hall in NYC next month and you BEST BELIEVE Thalia will be joining us for a THIRD time to capture our lil city hall marriage day!

  • Serves Durham, CT for additional fees

I love what I do. I found my way to professional photography in a roundabout way, having started my working career as a marine scientist and environmental educator in CA and then on Maui. After years immersed in the ocean and hundreds of hours spent underwater, I realized that I was happiest on days when I could adventure freely with a camera in hand. The drive to learn more and become a better photographer lead me back to school on the east coast, where I ended up finding a new dream career and a home and community that I love.

We first met Laura on a cold day in the middle of winter for our engagement photos. I mentioned snowshoeing up our family’s sleigh ride trail, and she came prepared with a smile on her face! Although it was cold, she was able to capture our warmth as a couple in so many ways. When it came to our wedding, Laura was extremely professional and dedicated to capturing all of the greatest moments of our special day. She made sure we had everything we needed throughout the day and all went so smoothly. The photos came out beautifully and we love reliving each moment through these wonderful photos and I know we will be cherishing them for the rest of our lives! We highly recommend using Laura for all sorts of photography, she is an amazing person!

I researched tons of videographers and had a handful of consultations. When I stumbled upon Alex' videos, I felt a sudden connection. My husband is very particular lol and Alex' was one of the few videographer/cinematographers that he really felt a WOW with. During our consultation with him, we felt very at east! He was very professional and guided us throughout the process. We received so many compliments with our highlight and feature film and I honestly can't stop watching them up to this day!

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.

When my now husband and I met Diana, we knew she was the one to photograph our wedding day. Her pictures are light, airy and capture every intimate moment. During the engagement session and our wedding day, we both could relax and be in the moment while she photographed. All of our guests complimented on how great and professional Diana is and absolutely our engagement and wedding photos. We love the fact we were able to share a link to our photos to friends and family with ease vs having them wait for us to post on social media. We highly recommend using Diana for all your special moments. She is willing to travel to capture special moments which is an added bonus.

Our wedding party was impressed with her organization. She went above and beyond to make sure every detail was perfect, and her efforts did not go unnoticed.

She is both highly skilled and genuinely dedicated, Liv is the one you want. I had met with a few other coordinators and had an instant connection with Liv! As my husband has said numerous times, Liv was worth every penny! She made our day unforgettable for all the right reasons. Thank you, Liv, for your outstanding work and for making our wedding day so special!

Throughout the whole planning process Shannon was so easy to communicate with and always had very prompt, timely responses. She was able to take my thoughts and visions bring them together and to life. She was very detail oriented down to having me select ribbons and vessels for our bouquets and florals. She sourced the most beautiful candles and bud vases for us as well. We had some last minute cancellations and cut down 2 tables and she worked with us to reallocate what we had paid for those tables to florals elsewhere in the space to not lose out. On our day there was so much love and hugging the groomsmen boutonnieres were falling off before the ceremony and she made new ones for all of them and placed them on. I cannot recommend Shannon enough!

I'm Katherine, a wedding photographer based in Oakland, CA. With over a decade of experience and features in Vogue, Brides, The New York Times, and more, I know how to create wedding photos that don’t just look stunning — they feel like you. No trendy filters, no forced poses, just authentic moments that reflect who you are. I believe the best moments aren’t staged. They unfold naturally, in the quiet glances, the belly laughs, and those unspoken connections shared with your loved ones. My goal is to capture those raw, in-between moments that truly make your wedding day yours!

Where to even begin! Investing in Katherine to do our wedding photos for our August 2021 wedding was the best decision we made, other than getting married! She had done a friends' wedding so I had started following her on instagram long before my husband and I got engaged. We were planning our wedding back west, and so we started looking at photographers back there but I just couldn't find anyone who measured up to Katherine. Listen--if you want "trendy" photos for instagram with lots of filters, orange skin tones, poses, etc--then Katherine isn't for you. But if you want photos that truly capture your day how it really was, then look no further. I spent years pouring over my parents' and grandparents' wedding albums wanting something that felt that classic and real. And real is exactly what Katherine does. She has this amazing ability to be everywhere and no where all at once. I have been in a lot of weddings, seen a lot of wedding albums, and I have never seen a photographer capture candids as well as she does--the photos feel like screenshots from a movie where we look happy and fabulous all of the time! She truly has a photojournalistic approach. She caught every teary hug, hand squeeze, and glance from across the room. And her ability to make every type of light work to her advantage (harsh mid-day, dark dance floor, etc) is truly incredible. And don't worry--she will also get all of those family photos that your parents want and do it in a painless, seamless way! While we were initially hesitant about the cost of hiring a photographer from NYC to shoot a wedding back west, her prices are MORE than fair for what you are getting! She even did a mini shoot with us the night before to get us comfortable in front of the camera and they are some of my favorite photos from the weekend. Also--she made everyone feel so relaxed and comfortable the day of. My bridesmaids were obsessed with her (I mean how could you not be? She shows up in a gucci suit with effortless cool girl energy and is like "let's do this!"), she managed wrangling our very large wedding party with ease and even got my grandma to smile in photos which is a big deal! We woke up the next day to about 15 sneak peak photos from the night before, and had our entire wedding album in 6 weeks! The hardest part is choosing which photos to print! There are just too many that we love. TLDR: Hire this girl, she is smart as a whip, reliable, talented, and a consummate professional!
