Two Upper West Siders. Twenty blocks apart. How had we not crossed paths before? Or did we? Well, after finally matching on Hinge we made that happen and the rest is history! We have combined families and now as a family of 7 (three dogs, two cats) we have become an unstoppable force. We both share the same passion for photography, capturing the beauty all around us and making magic happen. Our dog Lucy, embodies love, kindness and poise. We couldn’t imagine naming our business after anyone but her. That’s how Love, Lucy Photography came to be.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Bethany and Raquel as my wedding photographers, and I cannot speak highly enough of their talent and professionalism. From the moment we met them, they put us at ease with their warm and friendly demeanor, and we knew we were in good hands. On our wedding day, they arrived early and worked tirelessly throughout the day to capture every special moment, from getting ready to the ceremony to the reception. They were unobtrusive and respectful, but also knew how to direct us and our guests to get the best shots. When we received the photos, we were absolutely blown away. The quality of their work is simply stunning, and they managed to capture so many beautiful and candid moments that we will treasure forever. The attention to detail and eye for composition are truly exceptional, and we have received so many compliments on our photos from friends and family. Overall, I cannot recommend Bethany and Raquel enough. They are true professionals who are passionate about their craft, and it shows in the amazing work they produce. If you're looking for a talented and dedicated wedding photographer team who will capture all the special moments of your big day, Raquel and Bethany are the perfect choice. Thank you both, for making our wedding day even more memorable!

I am also a football mom, lacrosse mom and basketball mom. Wife to a very understanding husband and emotional support person for my big puppies.

It was great to work with Michelle and her team. She was very professional, got along with all of the guests and the staff at the venue. She traveled to our hotel and to the venue with no complaints. Michelle and her team captured our wedding beautifully, from the getting ready photos, the ceremony and the reception! I love all the candids, the camera and picture quality are amazing. Everyone was able to tell that Michelle works very diligently and cares about the work she puts out. She sent the photos to us in a very timely manner and was communicative throughout the whole process. I love how at the time of booking, we had to schedule a consultation just for her to get to know us. It was camera’s on so we were all able to get a feel for who each of us would be working with. The exercise she had us do, when we needed to choose the pictures we love the best, of us during our relationship to assess if we would be a mutual fit, in terms of her working style was super cool because it showed us that she wants to make sure she meshes well with her clients. Overall, a wonderful experience & everyone should book!

Our style is artistic and documentary, and can be described in three words; Sincere, Scenic, and Inspirational. Sincere, we will never ask you to act unnaturally in front of our camera; we will adjust to your personalities and photograph you as you are. Scenic, because we love beautiful landscapes and love to incorporate everyone in such environments. Inspirational, because there is always a new way or a new idea to capture a photo but in the end it's capturing that special moment.

Sam was super talented and professional and made our day special by keeping everything organized and timely to make sure it didn’t impact our schedule. His artistic taste helped create great photos and poses. Definitely booking him again for our next special event

When I first started wedding photography, I made a goal of being more than just the photographer on your big day. I made it my goal to be your friend, someone you can crack inside jokes with, and someone who isn't afraid to get down + have fun at the reception (while still doing her job). I made it my goal to capture more than just photos, but an experience. Whether it’s high in the mountains, on a beach near the ocean, in a forest meadow - you deserve to get married however you want to & I want to capture it for you.

L & L Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding day. Lexi, one of the photographers, was incredibly effective and charismatic in her communication style, making the experience fun and easy. She was patient in answering all our questions and ensuring every moment was captured beautifully. The quality of their work is truly top tier, and their services are very affordable, making them a tremendous value. Lexi rocked every single moment, seamlessly blending into the celebration and creating absolute magic with her moody, romantic photography style. I've worked with many photographers, and Lexi is now my go-to - I cannot recommend L & L Photography highly enough.

Edward was amazing from the beginning when we booked him for our wedding and engagement photos. He has such an eye for detail and light--and certainly did not disappoint on our big day! He takes his craft seriously and while my husband and I didn't realize how important the photos were as we were taking them, we were so impressed and grateful we took all of Edward's direction and the extra time for a few more shots. We had our NYC wedding in St. Patrick's Cathedral with photos in Central Park and he knows exactly what to do for each of these places for the best photos. Our friends and family have given us so many complements from our sneak peak we cannot wait to see the rest of them! Thank you Edward for your discretion and expertise-- we can't recommend you enough!

Hello, my name is Erica and I'm the owner of Ebakes Cakes. I make custom cakes, cupcakes, and treats for all occasions. I've been baking for 4 years, and I absolutely love it.

Ebakes cake is hands down one of the greatest cakes I had! She made each layer a different flavor, and each flavor had a filling that complemented each other so well. I had wedding guess coming up for seconds and by the time I saw the entire cake was gone by the end of the wedding!

After fifteen years in theatre and television production, Kate O’Donnell Diaz discovered a love for planning events but wanted to do so with a different approach from what other planners were taking. Kate desired to help couples cultivate weddings that truly reflected them and not just what bridal magazines, their future mother-in-law or high school frenemy said they just HAD to do. The literal and financial waste she witnessed going into weddings because of something “someone” said the couple HAD to have made Kate feel incredibly uncomfortable. Kate saw a need for a more eco-friendly approach to event planning.

Awarded Best of Zola
We never expected to have the perfect wedding, but thanks to Kate and Jen/Green Apple, we truly had the perfect wedding for us. It was more than we could have ever dreamed of, and Kate and Jen made the process so easy. Between choosing the venue, picking the band, dealing with COVID uncertainties, actually running the show the day of, and a million other things, they were always responsive, patient, and so much fun to work with. It’s hard to know what the perfect wedding will look like ahead of time, and although we had some vague general ideas and a couple weirdly specific requests, we weren’t really sure about how it would all come together. Kate and Jen took the time to listen to us, giving us formal questions and plenty of their time to talk things out informally. It felt like they immediately got what we were saying and had ideas about how to make our wedding come to life. They were honest when they thought something might not work, and creative when we were trying to come up with solutions to an issue. All of that was so important because it could often feel really hard to plan a wedding while managing two busy careers and everything else in our lives, and it was so reassuring to know we had them making sure everything was on track. Their experience and their willingness to get to know us made everything come together that whole weekend in a way we’ll never forget. The best part about working with Kate and Jen is how much they clearly LOVE what they do, and truly feel invested in the couples that they are planning with. This really does not feel like just a job to them, and we felt so supported throughout by their warm and personal approach. We genuinely miss them so much already, and it's only been a month since our wedding.

Her experience, creativity & knowledge in the event industry puts her ahead of most in the area. She loves creating and working with clients on all levels to make their vision become a reality. "I love getting to know my clients and enjoy becoming their "New Best Friend" prior to the event.". Her talent in design, organization, and management makes any experience working with her effortless. She makes you feel so comfortable & give you the confidence it will be an amazing event.

Eileen was amazing as our wedding planner / month-of coordinator. Both my husband and I were SO glad we hired her. Eileen helped us make so many decisions during the planning process that led to an extremely smooth wedding day - from where the bar was located to how we processed down the aisle, from whether to do cake or a dessert bar, to when champagne was poured - she really nailed it. She also worked with all of our vendors to coordinate setup and was onsite to help make sure everything was set up correctly & as planned. Everyone jokes that something *always* goes wrong on your wedding day, no matter how much you plan, but really we had nothing go wrong thanks to Eileen! She made our day stress-free! It's also important to call out that our venue wedding coordinator quit a couple of weeks before our wedding, and Eileen stepped up and swooped in to make sure our new point of contact at the venue was fully up-to-speed. Thank god for Eileen! I highly recommend her. And if you're on the fence about needing a wedding coordinator -- just take the leap! SO SO worth it.
