  • Serves Essex, NY

I am a wedding and elopement photographer located in Wyoming county. I love to take photos of weddings and elopements. Some say I have a true passion for what I do. I have learned a lot since I started and each wedding or session I am always striving to learn more. As a business owner I am fully insured and strive to be professional at everything I do. It's my goal to be able to do this full time someday! I love being able to capture someone's day it brings me happiness. I'm a pretty laid back go with the flow type of person. I do my absolute best to provide you with photos you'll remember forever.

I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer. Tabatha was more than willing to help with any wedding issues I had. She captured so many amazing photos. I’m so thankful we chose her for our big day. Because of her, our wedding was captured in beautiful photos to be reminded of our gorgeous day.

Alyssa Morgan Photography

  • Serves Essex, NY

June of 2012. Just two months after my mom was critically injured and hospitalized. I began using my camera as an emotional outlet. I started taking portraits for family and friends, and eventually, photographed a courthouse wedding. As time went on, it hit me: These photos are freaking important! And I knew from personal experience that these moments, & the people in them, aren't going to be here forever. That camera became so much more than an outlet. It gave me purpose. And now I see my job as an act of service to you. I'm honored to use my talents and skills to deliver what really matters: TANGIBLE MEMORIES OF YOU & THE ONES YOU LOVE

I truly do not even know where to begin regarding my experience with Alyssa and her team at Alyssa Morgan Photography. Over the past 2 years planning our wedding, Alyssa became much more than a vendor; she became a friend and trusted wedding planning confidante. From the moment I met her on my first wedding planning scouting trip (we live in NJ and had a destination wedding in Islamorada), I KNEW she was the photographer for us. Her photos clearly speak for themselves (I mean come ON, they are like something out of a magazine), but her personality (awesome), knowledge of the area (she is a Keys native, which is SO important when having a destination wedding in my opinion – you need someone familiar with the lighting, the locations, etc.), and her overall expertise in the industry (she even coaches other photographers!) truly make her worth every penny. This girl is worth her weight in GOLD and MORE. Alyssa photographed our engagement shoot almost 2 years ago, which helped us to get to know each other more. She knew how to make my then-fiancé laugh and even SMILE in front of the camera (which is not his favorite place to be) and make us look like supermodels in the process. We have her shots of us hanging all over our home because they are too beautiful not to show off. Despite COVID, missing out on our additional wedding planning trips due to the pandemic, and the overall unknown that was our wedding over the past year (we were worried we would have to postpone, cancel, etc.), she was virtually by our side every step of the way. Keeping us filled in on the state of the Keys, helping us troubleshoot obstacles, and keeping me calm in the process. When it came to our wedding, obviously as a bride it is a very overwhelming and nerve wracking day, but when Alyssa and her team of Kat (2nd shooter) and Kurt (videographer – we never even wanted a videographer until Kurt jointed her team and I saw his work and I am SO glad we decided to do it!!!), I instantly felt better. She worked with me and our planner before the wedding to put together a detailed outline of the day, photography timeline, important shot list, and she even helped me pull off a surprise first look for my fiancé with his best man dressed in a wedding dress to calm his nerves too! The day went off seamlessly, she coordinated us, our family, friends, bridal party, extended family to make sure every shot we wanted was taken. We got our sneak peeks back within days and my *husband* and I spent the remainder of our minimoon entranced by them! I always told Alyssa that photography was THE MOST important aspect of my wedding (I am a huge picture person) – and we COULD NOT BE HAPPIER that we chose her to shoot the most important day of our lives. We WILL be returning to the Keys and look forward to Alyssa shooting things like our anniversaries, pregnancy photos, and family photos in the years to come. **In summary, if I can just drive home just one point: IF YOU ARE GETTING MARRIED IN THE KEYS AND NOT USING ALYSSA FOR PHOTOGRAPHY: YOU. ARE. DOING. IT. WRONG!**

I'm Kari, and I'm obsessed with real emotions. I've been a photographer since 2007 and I still get all gooey inside when I see a couple laughing together, crying together, or living out dreams together. I only accept 12 wedding commissions a year so I can give each couple the attention you deserve. I'm based in New York, but I'm never opposed to traveling far and wide for a gorgeous wedding! Get in touch to see if I'm available for your wedding and to see if we're a good fit for each other!

Kari and Caleb were such a pleasure to work with! I cannot say enough good things about them. Personality-wise, they were a great presence to have around on our wedding day - fun, personable, professional, relaxed, and looking out for my husband and me the entire time. Photography-wise, I am even more impressed. Kari and Caleb expertly guided us through our first look and couples session before the wedding. They found amazing locations to shoot in, helped us pose, and kept track of the time to make sure we got where we needed to be. During the ceremony and reception, they were incredibly dynamic. When I saw the photos, I couldn't believe they were able to capture so much of the night from so many angles. The images are STUNNING. They are fun, unique, candid, expertly shot and edited, and I love them all so much. I would work with Kari and Caleb again in a heartbeat.

  • Serves Essex, NY

​I began photography in early 2015 by offering a few free sessions. Soon my business grew and I was booking numerous family and children photography sessions each month. In the summer of 2015 I began photographing weddings by offering to photograph a wedding for free and now I have seen my business grow from a few weddings a year to being fully booked with weddings nearly every weekend! In 2019 I decided to turn something I was passionate about into my full-time job. Many of my weddings are booked through "word of mouth" from some of my amazing clients! I am located in Rotterdam, NY and I travel in NY, VT, and MA for weddings.

Melanie with Always in Focus Photography was a joy to work with for our wedding day. Her communication style is very prompt, responding to emails and calls quickly, which was much appreciated during the hectic wedding planning process. Melanie takes her time with each shot, is very patient, and comes up with lots of creative ideas to capture the perfect moments. On our wedding day, she was amazing - capturing every important shot while never getting in the way of the event. The turnaround time for receiving our final edited photos after the wedding was faster than expected. Overall, Melanie is a talented, thoughtful photographer who helps document all the special moments of your wedding day. We'd highly recommend Always in Focus Photography to any engaged couple looking for a photographer who prioritizes communication and delivers beautiful, creative work.

I've photographed 100+ weddings and countless engagements during this wild ride of a career, that started about 10 years ago. Trust me, when I say, I have seen it all. From busting my best moves on the dance floor, getting that wild uncle away from the bar for family formals, to making sure you feel like the baddest B in the room..I've got you! Need help with a timeline, what to wear for your engagement session or what location is going to rock your world? I've got it under control.

Neither myself nor my husband are super comfortable in front of a camera. That said, Dani was AMAZING at making us feel relaxed the whole time. From the first minute of our engagement photo shoot to the last dance at our reception, we loved having Dani capture our relationship - awkward moments and all. Her photos are breathtaking and perfectly encapsulate our laughs, our emotions, and our love. We could not have asked for a better photographer for our wedding and I am so thrilled we chose Dani.

When I shoot photography, it’s not about composing the perfect pictures or getting a great shot. Yes, those things are essential. But, to me, photography is so much more. It’s about capturing a moment in time that you will forever be able to look back on and feel something magical.

Emily was such a pleasure to have be a part of our day! She was very professional through the entire process and made sure she knew exactly what we were looking for and expecting. We received a few teasers within 24 hours after the wedding that we could share with friends and family and received the entire package in a very timely manner! All of the ceremony shots were so intimate, the traditional shots turned out perfect and all of our couple shots were so elegant and very creative! Emily did a great job taking our vision and making it come to life! We will be showing off our wedding photos the rest of our lives and we are so glad we put our trust in Emily to make them everything we dreamed!

Hi, I'm Jacq! The first thing I'd like you to know about me is that I am obsessed with dogs (particularly my own, but probably yours too if you have a pooch!) and generally an adoring animal lover. I am a SF/bay area native who has now been in NYC for almost 15 years. I started Love in Theory in 2011 and fell in love with capturing the love and vibrant personalities of couples, both as individuals and as a united entity. We have become a multi national award winning portrait studio, with a main focus on weddings and couple shoots with an editorial style and a fashion influence.

Awarded Best of Zola
Let me start out by saying Love In Theory is the best wedding photographer out there. Look no further brides and grooms. As a bride, my #1 priority was finding a photographer who would I could trust enough to provide me with photos to capture some of the most special moments of my life. Photography was more important to me than any other vendor (including food and music, and I love food and dancing). After in depth research, I kept going back to Love In Theory. Not just because of their exceptional value, responsiveness, the calming effect of Jacquie's beautiful, warm personality but the pure talent and the love and light that shines through in her photographs. She has a way with capturing the most magical and fairytale-like moments. Her use of color and light come through in every shot. Trust me- just look at her site! My experience working with Jacquie & crew was sheer perfection from start to finish.My husband Tom and I received such an outpouring of positive response from our guests, bridal party and social media friends. Everyone we know has raved about our pictures from Love In Theory but not as much as we can. If anyone needs a recommendation, this is it. Jacquie is an artist and a professional. You are in the best hands with Love In Theory. Aside from her spectacular photography, her attention to detail is exceptional. All of our photos were delivered to us in the most adorable, thoughtful way. Anyone who was blessed enough to work with her knows what I mean by that. We fell in love with Jacquie from day one and now she is a friend to us. I posted about this photographer in the past after she shot our engagement photos because I already trusted that she would deliver the same results for our wedding. Jacquie- who I will always refer to as the Queen of Photography- we love you! Thank you and your team for being there as our most treasured photographer, our most sane, reliable vendor, and now our friend. Love always, M&T

Elizabeth Willis Photo

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,000
  • Serves Essex, NY

I'm a hybrid film + digital photographer who loves squishing baby cheeks and is terrible at making the bed. I'm a glass-half-full kind of gal who loves naming and caring for my plant babies, creating new cocktail recipes, the color yellow, and twinkle lights. Collaborating with clients to make images that tell your story is what drives my art. I strive to be inclusive, so if you aren't seeing yourself reflected in my portfolio, I aim to change that to make sure others feel seen too. I'm a sucker for weddings that include pieces of family history and love creating images that will be dog-eared and adored for generations to come.

I've worked with Elizabeth Willis Photos as a client and as a professional in the wedding industry. I'm a florist in the wedding industry and Elizabeth shot a wedding we both worked on. I was thrilled with the photos that I got back of my work. Not everyone can capture the beauty of flowers. It sounds funny, but there is a special talent for it, and Elizabeth has it. Not only did she capture the flowers beautifully, but all the soft and quiet moments of the couple as well. Once I saw that, I knew I had to book her for a family session. The session was comfortable and fun. I'm usually pretty awkward in photos, so I was completely prepared to have trouble picking the ones I liked. When the proofs were delivered, there was so many good photos to choose from that I elected to purchase more than what was included in the package. I will forever cherish the photos she took of my family!

Justin Lee Weddings

  • Editorial style
  • Serves Essex, NY

Drawing inspiration from films, photojournalism, and fine art— my work is best described as cinematic and timeless. From photographing small to large weddings, intimate elopements, to covering the Tony Awards— I've learned that every wedding & event is important and unique. My approach as a photographer is to not only create images that feel honest and interesting, but to document a story— while subtly being in the background. Capturing moments you were in the middle of, and moments that you probably never even saw— so that one day when you look back on these images years from now, you'll be reminded of what that day was.

Please book Justin for your special event - he is amazingly talented and the kindest soul to share your day with. We booked Justin for our wedding and by far it was the best decision we made for the day. From the moment we met to discuss the photography (prior to any sort of contract), Justin felt genuinely invested in the day, our happiness, and felt like a good friend. As the process continued on, he helped us remain organized and had clear expertise in how best to time manage and execute the photography. He was readily available for any questions and gave excellent suggestions in what might be needed during the photography that we had not thought of. When the wedding day finally arrived, Justin was an immediate calming presence and source of joy. He made everyone feel so relaxed and I think that is so important in photography to capture a momentous occasion. The photos turned out stunning and we will cherish them forever. Everything was exactly according to timeline (even early!). I can not thank Justin enough for playing such an important role in our wedding and making such incredible memories with us.

When I’m not photographing amazing people, you'll find me hiking in the Hudson Valley with my family, brunching with my girlfriends, or planning my next vacation (mostly likely on a beach somewhere). I'm obsessed with warm weather, family gatherings, and sunsets. When it's chilly out, you'll find me with a hot cocoa in hand. If there's music on, it's likely country or throwback 80s jams. ALL people and love stories are welcome here!

There are always things you would do differently, but hiring Debbie Gander Photography is certainly not one of them. Debbie made us feel right at home from the moment we met her. She is professional, but also kind and personable. Our engagment shoot was perfect, and set our minds completely at ease for the big day. When our wedding day arrived, Debbie delivered with the most stunning pictures, some of which we never dreamed could be possible. We will certainly work with Debbie again, that is a certainty.

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.

Elopement & Wedding photographer in the beautiful Upstate NY. We love sophisticated, stylish and romantic vibes, as well as rustic and adventureful days. We travel throughout the northeast and the mountain ranges of the ADK. In addition to capturing the traditional wedding photos, luxury high-end wedding photography services often include a range of extra features, such as engagement photo shoots, bridal portraits, boudior and even aerial drone photography. These services can help to create a truly unique and personalized experience that will be treasured for a lifetime.

Amanda from Golden Heart Studios was the photographer for our wedding in August, 2023. Before the wedding day we discussed the schedule and the look we were going for in our photos and Amanda went above and beyond to give us what we were looking for. She was great with directing us, the wedding party, and family to pose for photos and really thought through where she would be at different parts of the ceremony to make sure that she got beautiful shots. She was especially good at getting the little kids to look at the camera. The editing of the photos was also exactly what we were looking for. My only regrets are that I didn't schedule more time and that I didn't have a more detailed schedule for my family when it came to photos. On the wedding day itself, it was a bit like herding cats. But Amanda was very helpful, cooperative, and creative and made it work anyway! The pictures looked great and she really captured the atmosphere of the ceremony and reception!

I have been a serious and successful photographer in the portrait, wedding and fine art fields for over twenty years and while working in London, I was awarded a distinction by The Royal Photographic Society for my documentary portraits. I have also been awarded several merits of distinction and photography awards in the USA. Educated as an artist and photographer through The Brooks Institute of Photography, I was also fortunate enough to study under the late Ansel Adams and attended intensive workshops given by the top wedding photographers in the world including Jerry Ghionis, Parker Pfister, Brook Shaden, Cliff Mautner and Paulina Duczman.

There are simply no words to describe how phenomenal Sally was. We searched far and wide for a photographer who really understood what we wanted- nothing cheesy, just authentic pictures that captured our love. And boy did Sally do that! She stepped up without question when our original plans were thwarted by COVID and drove 2 hours to capture our elopement. The pictures were beyond perfect and Sally was such a pleasure to work with! We can’t wait for next year when we get to work with her for again for our reception!

Fueled by equal parts coffee & puppy snuggles, I spend my days capturing the kinds of images that make you stop, smile & immediately update your phone's screen image so you can live in that moment everyday. Your story, your love & joy is so beautiful & I can't wait to capture it in images you will treasure for years to come. I believe in real moments & heartfelt conversations on porches & around campfires. In the kinds of images that remind you of the pure joy that can be found in the simplest of moments together.

Linds is THE BEST!! She took such gorgeous images at our wedding and was so easy to get along with. She went far above and beyond our expectations and we would hire her again in a heartbeat. Thank you for capturing the magic of our special day!!!

You can call me Jem. The first think you'll notice about me is my accent. Originally from Sydney Australia, I followed love to the other side of the planet. I've been photographing weddings since 2010 after I was asked by a friend if I would be their wedding photographer and I haven't found another job that has made me feel quite the same way as Wedding Photography.

I have nothing but amazing things to say about Jem! From planning, to our engagement shoot to our wedding day and beyond. She made planning stress free and always available to check in. Having Jem at our wedding felt like having another friend there. She capture every moment we wanted perfectly. I never felt annoyed with taking endless photos, she made it effortless and so enjoyable! I cannot stop looking at our photos and can't even narrow down our favorites. She is perfect & magic!

We are Jenn and Ro, a husband and wife team based out of Central Jersey. An AOL chatroom brought us together in 2003 when we were high school seniors and we got married a few years later. Shortly after our wedding, we fell in love with photography and all things wedding. As a boutique studio, we love to create a relationship with our couples that lasts throughout the entire wedding process and beyond. Our goal is to make sure you are having fun and enjoying every second of your day while we are working behind the scenes to capture every moment.

We just received our album and seeing the photos in print is truly incredible!!! Jenn & Ro did a fantastic job - from communicating / booking through wedding day and even after, everything has been such a breeze. Jenn was very organized throughout the planning process which I so appreciated. Ro was so creative with our shots- we really love them all! It was so hard to pick our favorites but the process for Ordering prints and picking the album was super easy and efficient. We are sooo happy that we went with J&R Photography and are forever grateful to Jenn and Ro to have given us these memories that we will always cherish. Thank you!!!

My favorite thing in life is sitting out by my fire-pit with a glass of Riesling and a s’more in hand with friends and family surrounding me. I'm completely obsessed with traveling, going on adventures, and elephants, and actually foster one named Kamok in Kenya! I feel extremely lucky to have found the love of my life, Scott, when we were studying abroad in Copenhagen, and we now spend our days dreaming up our next adventure! I've been obsessed with weddings and knew I wanted this to be my career after attending my first one when I was 14, and haven't looked back since. I can't wait to hear about your day!

Simply the best! From the beginning, Laura was very responsive and reached out to me immediately once I inquired. From our first Skype call, to her online billing system, everything about working with her was simple and professional. She is truly passionate about her work and knows these photos are meaningful and will be around forever. From our engagement shoot to our wedding day, Laura was continuously engaged with us throughout the process and put together our day of timeline. Days before the wedding, she made sure all our vendors and family members were on the same page with the timeline by sending them an email and her contact information. Truly a STRESSFREE process for a bride and groom knowing that you have Laura and a support team behind you. She’ll go the extra step for great pictures. We received so many compliments from our friends and family on how hard she worked and how friendly she was! I believe that photos are the biggest part of a wedding and an investment since they last forever. Every bride wants a beautiful sunny day for their wedding, even if it was extremely hot on my wedding day, I knew that Laura would be able to capture us in the best light. I could go on and on about how wonderful Laura is. I strongly recommend Laura Lee Photography and I look forward to continuing my relationship with her. Thank you for everything you did for us on our special day!!!
