Hi, I'm Lisa Bettencourt! Since 2014, I have been working as a professional photographer, from dance competitions, to headshots, press events, engagements, weddings, corporate, and picture day in NYC public schools. But no matter where my career has taken me, my favorite moments have always been about capturing love and togetherness. As your wedding photographer, I promise a relaxed, fun, and creative atmosphere, making sure you feel confident and at ease in front of the camera. My goal is to deliver stunning visuals that will exceed your expectations, all while being mindful of your budget. I know firsthand how expensive weddings can be!

My partner booked Lisa to take photos of our proposal, and we could not be happier with the whole experience!! Not only did she brave a cold night on the brooklyn bridge, but the photos came out absolutely magical. She captured the moment perfectly, and even little side moments with family and friends. She captured every organic moment from tears to laughter, in a beautiful and truthful way. We are so happy with our photos and can’t wait to look back on them for the many years ahead.

On the wedding day itself, Donna rolled with the punches when our schedule got a bit delayed but still managed to capture all the moments beautifully. Most importantly, the quality of the photos is truly amazing. Donna managed to take artistic shots that perfectly encapsulated the style and emotion of our wedding.

My experience with Butterfly photography is really good. Our first consultation was so informative. She really wanted to get to know us and what we like/ don't like with photos. At our wedding day she came prepared with different props for our rings and detailed shots. She had so many ideas for the family photos and she got them done very quickly. Which I was shocked because we have such a big family. Her and her assistant are amazing at what they do. I would recommend this photographer to anyone who is getting married in the Thousand Islands NY

In the 20 years that I've been photographing professionally, I’ve honed my skill of knowing when to step in and make things happen, and when to step back and simply *allow* things to happen. Documenting the REAL emotion of the day is how we capture those picture-perfect moments. They happen organically, not by force, and I promise you: we're not going to miss ANY of them. = )

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Christopher and his team was the absolute best! From the beginning they were so thoughtful and informative every step of the way. Christopher eased our jitters by recommending a fun pre-wedding photoshoot before our rehearsal dinner which we would've never thought to do but absolutely loved. His calming presence throughout the wedding day made it so easy for us to relax in the moment, this sense of calm and joy was perfectly captured in our photos. Following our wedding, we worked with his design team on our wedding album. They too made this part of the process seamless, we were able to make decisions swiftly and with ease because of their expertise and support. We couldn't be happier with the overall experience or results!

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Rob, Tyler, and the team. Rob did my high school senior photos 10 years ago and has been part of the family since. He’s done all of my sisters’ weddings, and most recently mine on October 14. At each one he amazes me with his creative eye. The photos he captured for us are absolutely stunning. They’re truly magical pieces of art. He makes you feel comfortable the entire day. He laughs with you, he always makes sure to you have the good lighting, AND when I needed help with my bustle, he was right there with safety pins to help!! He is truly one of a kind. He makes you feel so special and really makes every effort to capture your perfect day in such a personalized way. I would (and DO) recommend him to anyone looking for a wedding photographer.

Thalia is truly a dream - to work with, to communicate with & to be with. Her work speaks for itself - I’ve never seen someone capture events the way she does. It’s like reliving the day. She is simultaneously incredibly helpful and present and yet you barely notice she’s there until you review the photos and are like wow she even got that small moment! As someone who has never loved posed photos / being in wedding photos I have to say Thalia completely changed my tune. She is truly a joy to work with an artist beyond comprehension. I cannot wait for another excuse to hire her again.

There is too much to say about Albert - 1. **Overall Satisfaction** - We could not be any more satisfied from our experience with Albert. Trust me when I say that this won’t be the last time we use him! You think you know what you want - until you meet Albert and he just makes it 1000x better! 2. **Quality of Photos** - The quality was exquisite!! He knows exactly what you want and what you’re looking for and makes it better!! We are in-love with his aesthetic and his work! 3. **Professionalism** - I don’t think we’ve met anyone as invested as Albert! He always had a plan and was ready for anything! Albert is a perfectionist - he was so intentional with every moment and could get inspiration from anything! Seeing him lose himself in his work was truly inspiring and made our time together so much more meaningful. 4. **Communication** - From the beginning, middle, to the end - Albert was always present. He was always early - to ensure he was set up and to get a clear vision of what could be done! He was very accessible at any moment we needed him to obtain any clarifications or even to share an idea! He was so clear and concise of what we could expect from him and what he could do to make it better! 5. **Comfort and Ease** - Albert has a gift of making anyone around him comfortable! He makes you aware that his customers are His priority and will do anything to ensure you leave satisfied!! We felt so comfortable trying a whole bunch of things! He can truly make ANYONE look good & will give you the confidence that you need to feel secure! 6. **Deposit Process** • The financial portion of our agreement is exactly what I envisioned it would be! He was flexible and gave us a reasonable amount of time to turn in what corresponded to us.

You know that all encompassing feeling when you’re revisiting a vivid memory? You can smell the fresh air, feel the way the sun hits your face just so, hear the voice of the loved one next to you, remember the joke that they delivered and instantly you’re laughing all over again. That magic is what I hope to capture as your photographer. It’s my job to hold those moments in time so that they don’t have to fade. You’ll forever be able to revisit the moment, see the exact way they smiled, revisit that incredible sunset, relive the memory and turn back time.

Jessica was truly amazing to work with for our wedding day. From the very first time we spoke, Jessica had a sweet and attentive communication style that immediately put us at ease. I remember after our first virtual meeting her even sending a little thank you gift for meeting with her. And she was so kind, she asked so many questions and seemed genuinely interested about us as a couple and about our dogs! I spoke with some other photographers who seemed to care less about us as people. Which is ultimately why we went with Jessica to begin with, she was just so nice and her pictures were amazing to top it all off. Her passion for her craft was evident in the beautiful, high-quality photos she captured. Also her photo package names were so great (THE STAR WARS - "I LOVE YOU, I KNOW”)! For our engagement shoot we suffered through some of the hottest, awful, sticky, July weather and she was positive the entire time, managed to get amazing shots and deal with our crazy dogs! Before the wedding, Jessica was always easily reachable, and very on the ball. And will always be your biggest cheerleader, anytime I posted anything on Instagram, Jessica would be there celebrating, she is truly a delightful and genuine person! And I think her run through of the wedding day was the first one I got and it was perfect! And she went to the venue a week before the wedding to scope out the absolute perfect spots to take photos! On the day of the wedding, Jessica was able to calmly get every picture perfect, meanwhile making silly dad jokes to help us feel more relaxed in front of the camera. She was amazing at trying to calm down our crying moms, and giving us some moments just to ourselves, listening to literally everything we said, and always making sure we were okay, all while getting amazing shots! And all of our guests loved her! We had people reaching out during and after the wedding to tell us how wonderful Jessica was. Everyone was obsessed with her, both of our mom, my sister, my bridesmaids, even the best man kept talking about how great she was, how amazing everything went, and how nice she was with everything! Meanwhile I am sure it was like trying to her cats to get some of the photos together, especially when we both wanted huge extended family photos, but she was positive and amazing through it all! Jessica went above and beyond on our special day, making sure everything was perfect. I am sure I even missing some of the little touches she added to our wedding. And we are so grateful to have had her as our wedding photographer. She says on her website “YOU CAN CALL ME JESS (SHE/HER). AKA YOUR NEW BEST FRIEND!” And that is honestly how I felt throughout the whole process, literally love her! And I mean the photos really speak for themselves, they are absolutely flawless!

Dani and I have known each other for 15 years, which is wild within itself. I’ve watched her photography journey for a long long time. Which is why the second we got engaged I KNEW we would hire her. We had an engagement shoot, as well as an “our day” vow shoot. Let me tell you, my husband and I are very much “guide us and we’ll follow” people. We’re indecisive, we’re go with the flow people, and that’s not always easy to work with. Dani from day one has guided us and taken care of EVERYTHING. From giving us options/ideas and brainstorming, to nailing the plans in place once we decided what we wanted to do. We had our vow day shoot in the Dolomites in Italy. Sebastian and I have never traveled like that together and Dani literally planned everything including what hike we were taking and timelined everything out. Which is exactly what we explained we needed and were looking for when working with her. She took everything we wanted and what we explained we wanted each experience to be like, and she nailed it. Nailed the photos. Nailed the locations. Nailed being an all around fantastic and easy person to work with. She also stayed in contact with us throughout the entire 2 years we have been planning together. She was our cheerleader, our planner, our listening ear, without a doubt I would recommend her to everyone and anyone. Not to mention these photos are to die for, and everyone is obsessed!

So, when my Husband and I got Engaged, we called Eddie right away hoping he would be available for 1 of our 2 desired dates.

Eddie considered all our requests and inquiries on types of photo documentation and was always available within 24 hours either by phone, text or email. Not bothered by any challenge, Eddie was always personable, wearing a Smile.

I have been photographing weddings for over ten years, and in that time have had the opportunity to travel around the world and meet tons of new friends.

From start to finish, our experience with Nicole was absolutely fantastic. We knew we wanted someone who could capture not just the big moments, but also the small, intimate details of our day, and she did exactly that. On the wedding day, she was professional, organized, and made us feel completely at ease. The photos turned out breathtaking! Every shot was beautifully composed, with natural, candid moments that truly captured the emotions of the day. We were especially impressed with how she managed to get stunning group photos without it ever feeling forced or rushed. Our family and friends also commented on how friendly and unobtrusive she was, allowing everyone to enjoy the day without constantly worrying about posing or being in front of the camera. The turnaround time for our photos was faster than we expected, and we were so happy to relive our special day through the incredible images.

I cannot GUSH enough about Becca. She was hands down the MVP of our wedding day. In the midst of wedding planning busyness, Becca led a thorough meeting with us (the couple) going over the day-of schedule, and covering an exhaustive comprehensive list of all possible photos, helping us prioritize the ones we needed and letting go of those that may have ended up stressing us out to try to take! She made sure to be sensitive to all our hopes for photos, family dynamics, and more. I (the bride) was sick on the wedding day and had to make some adjustments to the day-of schedule, and Becca not only adjusted with such grace and flexibility, but also offered great game-time ideas to make sure we got all the photos we wanted with even less time! During the wedding, Becca stayed even longer than scheduled, was so patient but commanding with getting family photos organized, and stayed in the background throughout the day even though she was right by my (the bride!) side getting the best candid photos. That way, I was able to feel supported AND even more relaxed, she was so nimble, positive, and masterful. As I’ve said since the beginning of working with her, she is simply the BEST.

Hullo! So you're gettin' hitched (YaaY!), but you’re not super into the idea of the overly-manicured wedding. A+ for you, because this is not your parents’ wedding photography. I'm a farm kid who floats between the journalism and art worlds. I love telling stories as much as I love listening to the stories of others. I’m the type of person who makes up musicals for my own amusement and nurses a soft spot for sci-fi and fantasy. If I’m not taking photos, I’m usually dancing. Or cooking. It’s possible I may have a baking addiction and try to mitigate the damage by forcing the goods on loved ones.

Celia's laid-back and friendly approach put us at ease from our very first email. On the day of our wedding, she was a calming presence and vibed with all of our guests. The photos she took are stunning and perfectly capture our celebration. We are so grateful to Celia for her artistry and approachability!

This is delightfully different elopement + wedding photography! From helicopter elopements and lakeside wedding bashes to hiking engagements to weddings with bouncy houses, I capture the adventurous, quirky, and unique. Based in both New York + California, with travel worldwide, I've photographed couples on 6 continents. My creative, fun, & candid photography uses innovative techniques and unique ideas to get photos that make you look twice. Whether you're saying vows in your backyard or having a 3-day adventure wedding in the rainforest, I'll catch every spontaneous moment of joy and laughter—and plan a few unique shots on top of it all.

We were so lucky to have found Kathryn for our wedding. As a photographer, Kathryn is an artist. She has incredible talent, creative ideas, and delivers stunning results. As a person, Kathryn is simply a joy. She is warm, easygoing, and fun. She made the process so easy from start to finish and we actually miss getting to chat with her! We are a same-sex, interfaith couple, and came to the table with family drama, a crazy dog, and a mashing of cultures. Kathryn didn't bat an eyelash. She has a true inclusive spirit, and that continues to mean a lot to us. If you want to be able to relive your special day with profound joy for years to come, just choose Kathryn! We so hope for our paths to cross again someday and we look forward to recommending Kathryn to anyone who will listen. We wish her nothing but the success that she deserves.

Photographing weddings and elopements is a privilege that I do not take lightly. I treat each moment with as much care as if it were my own! While I am happy to take on weddings of any size, I specialize in intimate weddings or engagement sessions where I can embrace a documentary, candid approach. My favorite moments to capture are those quiet, unplanned interactions. I adore the small details. The moments that sometimes get overlooked but often times help tell the story of your wedding day the most. I thrive with couples who aren’t afraid to be silly and embrace the moments as they come as opposed to forcing it.

Sydney was a dream to work with for our wedding! She is so kind and easy-going, she instantly eased all of my wedding day anxieties. She truly does it all and was essential in making our day run smoothly. From fixing my veil, to bustling my dress, and wrangling up our wedding party all while getting fantastic photos. She really is so talented at what she does by capturing all of the in-between, authentic moments that you want to remember forever. Our photos turned out better than I could have ever imagined and are so timeless, we will cherish them for the rest of our lives. We couldn’t recommend her enough not only because of her beautiful work but for the person that she is!!!

Hey there! I’m Kelsey, a wedding, engagement, and couples photographer based out of upstate New York. I live in Sidney, NY with my husband and our five cats (we love all the animals.) When I'm not behind the camera, I love cooking, calligraphy, graphic design, and traveling.

Kelsey Travis is an exceptional choice for your wedding photographer. She has a timeless editing style, a rare talent for capturing beautiful moments, and a personality that is so wonderful to work with. Even before we saw our wedding photos, my husband and I kept saying Kelsey (and her colleague Matt) did such a great job and we were really grateful she was our photographer. She's so organized and communicative and you get so much value from working with Kelsey. Her results are spectacular--she made a little bit of a dreary day for an outdoor wedding look absolutely stunning. We don't even know which photo to frame because there are so many beautiful pictures to choose from.
