I've been married for over 15 years and LOVE weddings!! Weddings make me happy! Marriages make me happy! I strive to give you photos that will bring you back to the moment of your wedding day for years to come!

Barden Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From our first session a few years ago, she was quick to respond, incredibly helpful, and so kind throughout the entire process. After our engagement photos, I knew I wanted her to photograph our wedding. Her communication style put us at ease and made planning our wedding photography a breeze. She shared in the excitement with us. The quality of her work was simply lovely - she captured all the beautiful, thoughtful moments of our special day in such a stunning way. Barden Photography had great ideas that helped make our wedding day even more special. We are thrilled with the photos and would highly recommend them to any couple looking for a talented, professional, and personable photographer.

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!

Our photographer Caroline was so nice and accommodating! She made us feel so comfortable which is not easy as I am not a photogenic person. We loved having her at the wedding. She fit right in with the crowd so she got some amazing pictures. We love all of our photos but especially the ceremony shots and the candids from the reception. The planning process was amazing- no notes. We wouldn’t change anything!I’m

I present fun, elegant, and exciting Wedding Photography for my clients. My style is photojournalistic; I feel it's the most effective way to tell a story. After all, there is so much happening on a wedding day. Between the ceremony, dancing, and endless extravaganzas, the most memorable moments will naturally occur.  My goal is to capture the emotions and memories of your day through my lens. These recollections are your forever keepsakes, a chapter of your life's story. Every image accounts for those who were by your side, delighted for you, and the next step in your journey. I appreciate you for giving me a few moments of your time.t

My husband and I were from out of town and hired Sean to photograph us at a Christmas gala at the place we got married. He was accommodating to last minute changes to make the most of the session and even went above and beyond to make it happen. Upon first impression, he was upbeat and had a vision. We were outside in sub 30 degree weather with fading evening light as well as low light inside a building and he was up for the challenge. We ended up with beautiful images in less than ideal conditions and that is what makes a great photographer. Sean has a sense of humor and an eye for that perfect photograph. He was fun to work with and his heart for people and creativity shows through. Thank you Sean for capturing this time in our lives.

We cannot say enough good things about Heather and her team. I discovered Heather in a bride group and knew that I just had to have her as my photographer. I expected beautiful photos, but we got so much more. Heather and her team made our wedding era so wonderful. She treats you like a best friend she’s known her whole life. Not to mention her team’s passion for travel. Heather and Andrew traveled 6 hours each way for our engagement photo shoot, then again for our wedding. Their attention to detail and passion for real-life photos really makes the perfect wedding album. They captured every important moment. We are so thankful. We could not recommend the team enough!

My name is Maya (they/them), and I'm a queer, love-obsessed photographer operating out of Pennsylvania and traveling all over. I specialize in weddings and elopements, especially non-traditional, LGBTQ+, and multicultural celebrations. I am the 'picnic elopement in the woods' or 'weekend campsite celebration' or 'screw it, let's get married at a Waffle House' photographer.

Awarded Best of Zola
Maya is one of the most wonderful, genuine, and detailed photographers I've ever met, and I've worked with a lot of photographers in my line of work! My partner and I chose Maya first for our engagement photos because of their dynamic, warm style, and ended up enjoying working with them so much that we decided to book them for our wedding! My partner is quite shy and doesn't enjoy his photo being taken, but Maya made him feel so comfortable and confident. We are an LGBTQ couple, and Maya made us feel so valid and loved expressing who we are. Maya was so communicative throughout the whole wedding planning process, and constantly provided us with resources to help us with our general planning. Maya and their co-photographer took so much care and detail on the day of the wedding to get every small detail to every huge moment. Everything worked like literal clockwork, everything felt super chill and fun, and even shooting large family photos (with way too many cousins) ended up being a breeze! Maya truly cares about their work, especially their clients. We could not recommend Maya enough!!!

Snowdrop Creative Co.

  • Photojournalistic style

  • Serves East Smethport, PA

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.

From the moment we first spoke with Snowdrop Creative Co., we were impressed by their kind, prompt, and super prepared communication style. On our wedding day, Alexandra and Ashley went above and beyond to make sure everything was captured perfectly. They helped me get ready, made sure I had my wine and pain reliever, refreshed my lipstick, and were great company throughout the day. The quality of their work exceeded our expectations - they were incredibly creative and didn't miss a single special moment, including capturing our cake cutting for free. We would recommend Snowdrop Creative Co. to any couple looking for 10/10 wedding photography services.

Hayley Anne is an AMAZING photographer! I had the pleasure of working with her at a wedding in upstate New York and the results were out of this world. Hayley seemed very laid back and personable during the shoot, but looking at the results, you can see just how diligent and focused she was in capturing all the details in every moment, all while always keeping the technicalities of composition in mind. For the dancing portion, there's so much action captured, it rivals some of the best I've seen. There's even photos of a guest being hoisted (or perhaps launched!) into the air by a friend, which to me serves as a reminder that you can only capture these details if you have a photog who is keenly aware and lightning quick. If you are looking for a photographer who can capture the unique personalities of your family members, all the fine details, and all the dancefloor action without breaking a sweat, I would absolutely recommend Hayley!

Hello! I'm Jandi, a spirited photographer dedicated to capturing unforgettable moments with passion and creativity. Photography, for me, is more than just a profession, it's a desire to live in the intense moments. The ability to tell stories through visuals is a power that never ceases to amaze me. My journey into the world of photography began with a fascination to take a photograph and have that moment forever, and since then, it has evolved into a relentless pursuit of preserving that moment.

Jandi and her second shooter Joe were absolutely great to work with! Super friendly and energetic. We’re definitely a camera shy couple but they made photos a fun and easy experience. They also didn’t give us any weird looks when our friends inevitably goofed off and suggested a photo of my maid of honor pretending to stab the groom or the best man suggestively riding a rake we found on the ground or even when the groom insisted Joe hop in a group photo with all the other Joseph’s attending the wedding (there were several) My husband who absolutely hates having his photo taken has already told me he intends to only use Jandi for any future events or occasions that will require professional photos so I consider that the highest praise possible from him lol You should absolutely hire Jandi if you want a comfortable and enjoyable experience!

My name is Maddie and I'm the photographer behind Eternally Wild. With a camera in hand, I capture stories that would have otherwise become lost - the ones memories can only hold for so long before they fade away. I capture nature and lovers and soulmates in their most fleetingly beautiful moments. I believe photography is magical. Photographs remember the past in vivid color and tell the best love stories without words. They are reminders that we were, are, and will always be eternally wild.

Maddie is amazing to work with! We have hired her multiple times as a second/3rd shooter for wedding photography. She is not only incredibly talented as a photographer, she is personable and professional. She is punctual, easy to communicate with, and is such a joyful person to have around on a wedding day. Her talent, personality, and creativity make her an easy choice for an elopement photographer! She is a joy and I can’t wait to work with her again soon.

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.

Thank you for being one of the sweetest people we ever met Nicole! Please come back soon!

We are Ryan + Jillian, a husband and wife photography team. We fell into wedding photography after our own wedding when Ryan's best man/cousin Sean passed away. Receiving our wedding photos while helping plan the funeral was the greatest gift we could have ever gotten. 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.

Several years ago I had the privilege to see behind the curtain to just how magical the portrait process and experience is with Jillian + Ryan of With Love & Embers. We were all working together on a progressive elopement that occurred in parts along a waterfall hike, so in between the stop for vows, or exchanging of rings, I got to see how they create comfortable and visually powerful photos with their couples. Nobody was feeling awkward or posed, Jillian + Ryan have a way about them that builds rapport and trust with their couples--people know that the photographer thinks they are beautiful...the setting is beautiful...their connection and relationships are beautiful and worthy of fine photography. In all the years that I've watched photographers work and also my experience being photographed, I can't stress how important it is for the people being photographed to not only feel comfortable but also feel confident that they are at their best. With Love & Embers is one of my favorite photography teams, they don't just take pictures, they create beautifully composed moments of connection and then photograph that!

I have been a photographer since 2017 and have shot over 200 weddings to date. If you’re looking to add an ally to your wedding team you are in the right place! We will provide consultation to avoid the common wedding day hiccups. Whether it’s running behind schedule or securing the best available locations for your photos. Have you ever modeled before? Probably not, and that’s ok!! We have successfully worked with all personality types. Our goal is to bring your vision to life. No two weddings should be the same. We will approach your special day as a huge collaborative effort.

Manai was so communicative. We started with a nearly 2 hour video call. He was so good about making sure he understood our vision. We had several emails afterwards to get his help with our schedule and other vendors. We had a final 1 hour call just before the wedding to finalize all of the details. 10 out of 10. Manai knows his stuff and it felt good on the day of my wedding realizing we hired the right person. He pretty much knew everything that was happening even before it happened. I'm a pretty anxious person so it was nice having someone to kind of help guide the day along. Thank you Manai! Wishing you so much success. You deserve it!

I’m a photographer, mom, wife, snowboarder, roller coaster enthusiast, former math teacher, and former mechanical engineer. I love the process of learning, which led to me earning my Ph.D. (but you don’t have to call me Dr.)! I have an extremely short attention span, am addicted to wearing beanies and headbands, and am fueled by chai tea. I'm socially awkward and I make weird faces when I concentrate to take photos. I dress for comfort and for rolling around on the ground, standing in creeks, and climbing into trees to capture the best angles for my photographs — but I do clean up reasonably well on wedding days!

Carrie is UHMAZING! We’ve had her photograph our engagement, wedding - flew her to Maui b/c we love and trust her work so much! - and we go back every year for Santa photos. She’s the absolute best and worth every cent.

Hello, and welcome! Nick here, and I first wanted to stay thank you for taking the time to check out my work, and I look forward to the opportunity to capture your wedding day! My approach to your wedding day coverage is more of a documentation of genuine moments between you, your partner, friends, and family. Specializing in a photojournalistic style, I'm on the hunt for those natural smiles, tears of joy, and most importantly, finding you and your partner lost in the moment. I also strive for a clean and timeless look, focusing on composition, and I'm not afraid to give direction when needed.

The photos turned out stunning—every detail, emotion, and moment was captured perfectly. Plus, they sent us sneak peeks the morning after the wedding, which was such a sweet surprise! It was amazing to have some gorgeous photos to share with friends and family while we waited for the full gallery. Ryan and Danny, thank you for giving us memories we’ll cherish forever. If you’re looking for photographers who are talented, professional, and genuinely wonderful to be around, these two are the best of the best. Highly recommend!

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.

Ishan & Preeti Ishan Fotografi were the perfect photographers for our wedding day.

The quality of their work was truly exceptional - their photos were beautiful, professional, and perfectly balanced, capturing all the special moments of our wedding in a way that felt natural and authentic, while also getting all the family shots and formal portraits. They worked with us to reschedule our engagement photos when we had weather issues, and really listened to our ideas for the couple portraits, helping us feel comfortable in front of the camera. Ishan & Preeti have an amazing ability to build rapport and make you feel at ease, which was invaluable on our big day. We are thrilled with the final photos and couldn't recommend them more highly!

To start, I'm obsessed with memories! I am a mother of two wonderful kids and the wife of the most amazing, supportive man. Photography has been such a big part of my life the last twelve years and I can't thank my clients enough for allowing me to capture their special moments. I believe in capturing moments as they happen. My style is clean and natural and there's always those black and white moments that I can't live without! I love having a vision and seeing it realized through a photograph. Also, I love to travel!

I can’t recommend Amy enough to be the photographer for your big day. She was our photographer for our wedding, our engagement session, and several mini sessions at her studio! Every time I work with her I’m amazed at how perfect she captures each moment, our personalities, and is able to create the most amazing memories. Several guests and members of our bridal party said how amazing she was to work with at our wedding! She is so organized, professional, but also so much fun! My husband and I were so blessed to be able to find the perfect photographer to capture our big day.

Wedding, couples and boudoir photographer based in Owego, NY. I do both outdoor session and studio sessions. Some fun facts about me: #boymom, book worm, gear head, horror fanatic, iced coffee is life.

I had the pleasure of working with Morgan at a styled photo shoot I planned. Morgan was professional, easy to work with, and fun to be around. She worked well with the other photographers and gave clear directions to the couple being photographed. She was quick to edit photos and get them back to me. Even though it was a staged shoot, none of the photos of the couple look “staged.” I absolutely love her editing style, and her photos from the shoot are some of my favorites from the whole day. I use her photos frequently in social media posts, printed marketing materials and advertisements. I’m looking forward to having Morgan take some branding photos for me and my business coming up this spring. I’ve added her to my preferred vendor list for a reason. You definitely want Morgan to capture your day!

We are Codey and Logan! Your husband-and-wife photo and video duo! We are two passionate storytellers who strive to create some kick ass content and have fun while doing it. We live for adventure and love traveling. We are suckers for hopeless romantics and capturing details. being able to photograph and film weddings and elopements in a unique and intimate way is what makes it all worth it. It’s what fuels us. and we are so blessed to be able to take something like photography and film and turn it into something so much more.

Finding Logan and Codey was an honest dream come true. This was one aspect to my wedding I was so nervous about because it’s the only thing you have to look back on when the event is over. I knew I wanted a specific look (given our slightly non-traditional wedding) and they more than delivered it! They both were incredibly professional, super sweet, had amazing suggestions and ideas and had both my husband and I’s jaws on the floor when we got our video and photos back. I can not recommend them enough and if I can help save any bride the hours of research I did to find them, then I will be happy! 10000/10 recommend!
