  • Starts at $6,500
  • Serves Hartford, NY for additional fees

I am a Long Island based Wedding & Portrait Photographer that loves a good adventure. I'm the guy who just truly enjoys being behind a camera. I definitely think I got into photography because my Mom always was behind a camera. Most of the time she was the team Mom, and was frequently seen on the sidelines snapping photos of everything she could. It was her interest in photography that led me to appreciate what it takes to create a beautiful photograph.

I cannot say enough good things about Mike. I’ve known for years I wanted him as my photographer and was so happy he was available on my wedding day. Easy to work with, flexible and extremely helpful. Pictures are stunning. I’m so grateful he was my photographer.

Our experience with Melissa Vergo Photography was world class- from the initial meeting with Melissa to receiving a special photo keepsake box with photos from the engagement shoot. On our initial meeting, Melissa did an amazing job of understanding our wants and needs. On the day of the shoot, she made us feel so comfortable and made the experience so fun. We received our photos in a very timely manner. We are in love with every single photo. We can’t thank Melissa enough for these memories she beautifully captured.

If you are looking for a engagement/wedding photographer, look no further because Nicole is itttt! She will be there for you through thick and thin. We had to reschedule our engagement session a few times due to the pandemic but Nicole was super accommodating and understanding through it all. She even helped us with our location research and we ended up with some of the most breathtaking golden hour pictures I have ever witnessed like my goshhh. We were also so so grateful to have her during our wedding - an intimate backyard wedding in western MA. She drove all the way from Boston and captured a piece of 2020 for us that we hold so dearly: our eternal love that we shared with all the people we care about. So not only is she going to capture your story, she will be a great friend who will give you all the support you can ask for! And I am so ecstatic to work with her again in the near future!

Love, Jackie Wedding Photography

  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $2,850
  • Serves Hartford, NY for additional fees

Hi I'm Jackie, and I literally love my job! I’m a New England-based photographer for the last 18 years. I have to admit though, I love taking this one woman show on the road and travel makes me the happiest. I have been lucky enough to shoot destination weddings in England, Iceland, and Alaska. I would describe my photography style as very laid back and natural. The little in between moments make for the best photos, and I’m not about capturing awkward prom poses and forced smiles. I want the real stuff - the stuff that’ll make you laugh till your cheeks hurt and will make your heart beat faster.

Jackie was the best to work with. I'm not huge on being photographed, but she was great at making us feel comfortable. She was also easy to get in touch with, responding to emails within a few days. I'm glad we did an engagement shoot to get to know her a little before the wedding day and help ease the photography anxiety. We got a handful of sneak peek shots a few weeks after the wedding, which was exciting, followed by the full set of photos a few weeks after that. The photos are beautiful and capture our day perfectly. I don't even remember seeing her at the ceremony I was so focused on everything else, but she captured it and all our emotions beautifully. She also was very good at getting through the portrait photos quickly, as I had a lot of family members to move around. Very happy to have worked with her.

I, Zig Metzler, do solemnly swear to bring integrity and enthusiasm to your celebration. I promise to document you & your day with compassion, humor, and heart. — But what’s that?? You’re a road dog, you say? Getting married in a National Park? An abandoned mall? A remote mountain top chapel where Bear Grylls officiates? Bring it on! Whether your wedding is in your grandma’s backyard, a swanky hotel, or a canyon in Big Bend I’m there to create photographs that feel like classic *you*. It’s exciting to get to make images of such a special time in your lives— I want to help preserve those moments, and create something personal that endures.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot say enough good things about Ziggy. Not only is she an amazing photographer who takes beautiful and emotional images - she’s one of the best people to be around. You will spend most of your wedding day with your partner and your photographer - probably more time than you’ll spend with your parents or best friends on that day. Ziggy is the most fun, warm, caring person to be around and will make your day a blast. She’ll make you feel comfortable in front of the camera, and when you look at the images afterward you’ll notice that she captured not only the people and events of that day but the FEELING it held for you and everyone who was there. She is also radically inclusive and very capable of working with LGBTQ+ families and multicultural families. I have worked with Ziggy on multiple occasions and every time I come back to her images I am blown away by the care, thoughtfulness, and artfulness she pours into them. Book her IMMEDIATELY.

I love creating beautiful, custom wedding henna! From intricate, elaborate bridal mehndi designs to speedy, satisfying designs for guests, I love it all. I have studied Indian, North African, and Middle Eastern henna design in depth, and am happy to create designs in a broad range of strictly traditional styles, or to combine traditional patterns with more individualized, unique elements for a customized henna experience.

Awarded Best of Zola
I'd first met Heather at a Rhode Island PrideFest, and instantly saw how much talent she had. Every piece she did looked amazing, her precision was immaculate. I went to her several times over the years, and when my now wife and I began planning our wedding, I brought up the idea of having wedding henna done. My wife agreed, and I knew immediately that I needed to contact Heather. We met up with her at a nearby farm where she was holding a henna event, and she sat with us discussing what we would like done for the wedding for probably a half-hour or so. She sketched design ideas out, which we loved, and made a contract right then and there. Our wedding henna was stunning. We received so many compliments on it that night, and repeatedly after as it lasted beautifully for quite some time. We still get comments if someone sees wedding photos. Throughout the entire process, Heather was a dream to work with. Very kind and professional, she is exactly the caring presence a stressed bride-to-be needs.

I’ve been a touring drummer for the last decade with Pattern is Movement.

I’ve also been booking shows for years at Philly’s own Johnny Brenda’s. My life revolves around music and that is why I love to DJ.

Chris took our rather opposing tastes in music and created a symphony of sound that resulted in an incredible multi generational dance party. A week after the wedding and we're still getting notes from guests about how incredible our DJ was. Chris is super intentional about creating a space for all and being strategic about how the dance floor evolves throughout the night. We appreciated his thought and expertise and general kindness and can't wait to have a reason to work with him again.

From the very beginning, Karl was such a pleasure to work with. Finding a great band for our wedding was our top priority. We were a little apprehensive about pulling the trigger on any band without seeing them live, since videos don’t necessarily do the band justice. We made the decision to go with PopStyle almost entirely because Karl was so responsive and a great communicator. 6 months later, when it came time to iron out details, Karl was consistently professional and put us at ease. Knowing we could trust him to handle everything on his end was invaluable. Obviously we were a bit preoccupied on the day of our wedding, but from what we could tell everything was so smooth. They took care of setting up for our ceremony with a variety of mics and speakers for our officiant, readers, and processional/recessional music. They seamlessly transitioned to the cocktail hour (different location), then introduced our first dance plus family dances, and kicked off the dancing with so much enthusiasm. We absolutely adored their performance. They got everyone out on the dance floor! There were also times when a few of them came out onto the dance floor to really engage the crowd. It was awesome and unexpected. Each band member that I personally interacted with could not have been nicer. They all seemed so genuinely happy to be there celebrating with us. It didn’t feel like a client/vendor dynamic. Additionally, every other vendor we spoke with told us what a pleasure it was to work with PopStyle. Overall, we would 100% book PopStyle again for any event. If you are considering them at all, I would look no further. They exceeded our expectations in every category

My name is Melissa Kelly! I am a Boston Metrowest based wedding photographer! I live in Grafton, MA with my wonderful husband and my two energetic boys! Photography has been a family hobby for my entire life! My father and I have always shared a special bond over our creative and artistic side and my maternal grandfather even had a dark room IN his home! It's in my blood! I am so excited to be able to share my passion with others!

Both my engagement photos and wedding photos were taken by Melissa! Honestly, she was the best! (And it should be noted, I am picky with pictures haha) While "wedding planning" some people recommended I hire a videographer, but with Melissa's photos I didn't even need one! She captures every moment, even ones you didn't realize were being captured. It's like reliving my day every time I look at these photos. There is a lot of beauty in her editing, lighting, and angles. She gives you pose ideas too for those who are a little camera-awkward. Plus I got sooooo much positive feedback from wedding guest about how much they loved her the night of the wedding due to her amazing, fun personality, but then when they saw the outcome of the photos afterwards, everyone including my husband and I were (even more) impressed. I absolutely recommend Photography By Melissa Kelly. You will get beautiful photos and memories a genuine kind person to hang out with on your special day :) I honestly can't thank her enough, hands down!

After 10 years and over 200 weddings, I know how to fold into a large group of people, how to be there and make it feel like I'm not. I've been documenting weddings for nearly a decade and I love it even more now than when I started. My work is candid, emotional, and comfortable. I love to infuse editorial and documentary moments into my galleries, but mostly I just love to be able to photograph moments as they unfold.

Melissa was really fun to work with. Claudia was nervous and Melissa helped her feel more at ease. Claudia and I love all the photos she took, the ones she posed us and the ones we improvised.

I'm a bridal makeup artist based in NYC/ Long Island. Makeup Artistry has been my passion for many years and nothing gives me more joy than bringing to life the vision someone has for their special day.

Caitlin did an amazing job. To begin with, she was very sweet, communicative, and helpful in the early part of the process. I do not wear a lot of makeup and don't know much about it, but she guided me through every step, even outlining the sorts of searches I could on Pinterest to find examples I liked. She made me feel confident that she understood what I was comfortable with even though we could not have a pre-bridal appointment due to distance. Then, on day of, Caitlin went above and beyond. She arrived ahead of schedule, brought everything she needed, provided lots of goodies, attention and skincare, and delivered a stellar makeup. To note, it was an insanely hot and humid summer day in New York (91 degrees and 85% humidity). I don't know what magic Caitlin worked on my face, but the makeup stayed on ALL DAY AND NIGHT. It was so astounding that almost every single guest commented on it (everyone else was sweating their faces off—sorry!). I looked like an elevated version of myself and was so so happy with it. Thank you for being such a key part of a great day, Caitlin!

If you love cats, traveling the world, the TV show LOST, and chocolate, then we might be twin flames. But even if none of those things apply to you, don't worry, we'll probably still get along just fine. I'm a wedding photographer, originally from Boston, but also living just north of Miami now. When I'm not in those two locations, I'm living my Carmen Sandiego dream by exploring the rest of the globe one city at a time. If you ever need advice on how to pack just a carry-on for a two-week trip abroad in a cold-climate country, I can help with that. Death before checked baggage, amirite? Let's be friends.

I had been following Danielle’s work for a long time and I couldn’t wait for her to shoot my wedding!! To say she went above and beyond is an understatement. She made me feel comfortable and beautiful, was organized, fun, and creative. We never felt rushed. She even helped pin boutonnieres and flag down family members for the after ceremony photo shoot! She captured all the decor, every important moment of the day as well as plenty of awesome candids. It was wonderful to see the day through her lens and you can tell how passionate she is with her work. We will surely cherish these photos for a lifetime. I would recommend her to anyone!!

They are laid back with fantastic personalities, but are also extremely efficient and super professional. As with my style, they are unobtrusive and let the day flow naturally for the couple and all their guests. The final result is always a stunning piece of art. I can only imagine the reactions the couples and their family & friends have after viewing their incredible films. Every time a prospective client of mine asks for videographer referrals, Skyride is always at the top of the list. I cannot recommend them enough!

From the planning process to your wedding night we will ensure that your wedding is fun, unique and exactly the way you want it.

If I could give more than 5 stars I would. I used Showcase Sound for DJ, photo booth and the Led dance floor for my son's Bar Mitzvah. I already knew they were great but WOW! They kept the dance floor packed from the beginning to the very end. I had guests commenting all night (and after) how amazing they were. They kept the kids entertained and EVERYONE danced all night long. They responded quickly whenever I had a question. We had the most amazing evening. I cannot recommend Showcase enough.

Hi friend! Grace here. I’m from a small town in south-central PA, where I was raised on the great outdoors, drive-in movies, & board games. My husband is my best friend & we have an adorable toddler keeping us on our toes! We're all about Jesus, our people, traveling, coffee shops & our two Aussies. I’m a big advocate of seeing new places, deep talks under the stars & being near the mountains any chance I can get. I believe that marriage begins with a promise & a lifetime of memories follow after that. My clients are my friends & I feel privileged to begin this adventure with you!

I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer. She was sooo easy to work with. Her visions aligned with mine, she was efficient and so sweet. I truly trusted her with everything in me and she did not disappoint! She traveled across the country for us and was a 10/10 human being and professional photographer. You need her!!

Hi! I'm Kristen. I'm a wedding, boudoir, and portrait photographer who loves to make people laugh, connect with each other, and feel beautiful in their own skin. Based in New Milford, CT and serving Connecticut and beyond. Questions? DM me on Instagram!

Kristen did my engagement photos and will also be doing my wedding! She has been so flexible, patient, responsive, and understanding this entire process. My fiancé and I were both nervous the day of the shoot but Kristen was such a ray of sunshine she had us so comfortable and laughing the entire time! We were worried that we were going to stand there awkwardly but she walked us through the entire shoot. She really took her time with us and then was so excited to upload and edit our photos that she had them done within the next few days. I couldn’t recommend her more! Thank you Kristen!!

I am a destination wedding & elopement photographer + planner based in New Mexico. I am originally from the small college town of Lexington, Kentucky, but before long my family moved to Toronto, Canada. Fast forward a handful of years, we moved to Nashville where I finished up elementary school and attended high school. I graduated from UTK in the spring of May 2020 with a BS in marketing and a collateral in entrepreneurship. After graduation I moved down to Florida to be with my partner who is stationed in the area and this past year we got moved to NM! I am an avid traveler & learner!

Audrey is the best. She went above and beyond for my wedding which seemed so natural that she must do it for all. We had 3 phone calls since we lived far away. Ahead of the wedding she put together detailed timelines for myself and all those involved. We made edits together and we explored different package options. I had a large wedding where my Husband and I were getting ready at different locations, a Catholic Church Ceremony and a different location for reception. Audrey managed with ease. She has the calmest demeanor and the best art came from the day. I received “Sneak Peaks” of almost 80 photos within 2 days which was a shock to me. Upon opening them, the photographs were so beautiful we couldn’t even believe these were from our day. I HIGHLY recommend Audrey for your wedding. Big or Small, Formal or Informal. She is the girl. BTW her second shooter, Lauren quite literally saved our wedding ceremony when I forgot the rings. Lauren tracked down the limo driver and delivered the rings discreetly to the alter!

My name is Cecilia but you can call me Cece. I'm so happy you are here. I'm married to the love of my life and together we have three rambunctious little boys. I'm based in Utah and I LOVE traveling. If your wedding is out of state I would love to come to you. I have always found joy in taking photos. It wasn't until I got pregnant with my first child that I developed a strong passion for photography. When I'm not taking pictures I enjoy exercising, reading books, and hanging out with my family & friends

Awarded Best of Zola
She did such a great job; she listened to us and got all the must-have photos we needed. Cece also kept the party going by having a fun time with us and capturing all of our guests' fun.

Real moments & love stories. Queer/LBGTQ+ always Hi, I'm Sasha (she/her or they/them). I am friendly, easy going, and real happy to join you on your wedding day. It’s your wedding. Be comfortable. Enjoy it. I pay attention, I anticipate, and I work hard to get your real, genuine moments and emotion.

I feel so passionately about recommending Sasha I don't even know where to begin! My fiancee and I, as well as several members of our wedding party, have not stopped talking about how great she was since our wedding a couple weeks ago. Sasha did our photos for both our engagement shoot and our wedding. When we started wedding planning, it was important to us to hire vendors who not only aligned with a product we wanted and our price range, but also who were kind, good people we'd want to spend our wedding day with. Some vendors fell short, but Sasha made up for it and then some. First of all, Sasha is EXTREMELY talented. She really captures your essence in her work and several people commented to me that they could "feel" our wedding and emotions through our photos. Her photos are not cheesy or contrived, which was something we knew we wanted when hiring a photographer, and her values aligned with what we were looking for. She is very talented at working with lighting in special and artistic ways. She will "yes and" every single one of your ideas and suggestions for your photos, and really listens to your requests and preferences. Beyond all of this, even if I hated the photos (which is far from the case, I love them so much), I would hire her again and again. Your photographer is someone you spend a LOT of time with on your wedding day. Having someone with good, calm, kind energy who you vibe with is really important. I had a somewhat rough start to my day, getting a bit overwhelmed and behind schedule. Sasha was exactly the person I needed to be with to help ground and calm the energy of everything when it otherwise felt chaotic. She is cool as a cucumber under pressure, kind to every single person she meets, carries such a positive energy, and is a true professional at pivoting/troubleshooting when something goes wrong. She's also a quiet leader who will help keep your wedding running smoothly, pay attention to your timeline, etc. We had a giant wedding party and she somehow corralled people very quickly to get all the group shots we requested, so that I never had to think about it. On the wedding day, as others have said, she was somehow everywhere, but in the least obstructive way possible. I didn't even notice her during the reception or ceremony yet somehow she captured amazing pictures from lots of amazing angles. Leading up to the wedding, Sasha was a delight to work with. She was VERY responsive and willing to meet with us both over the phone and in person. She took the time to do a walk-through of our venue with us, which put me at ease to scope out where we'd take pictures. She even hopped on a Zoom call with us while on her vacation the week before our wedding. Last but not least, Sasha got us our engagement pictures AND our wedding gallery preview much faster than anticipated! If I sound slightly crazed in my obsession for Sasha, it's because I am lol. Sasha's beautiful spirit matches her the high level of talent and artistry in her work. This is your sign to hire her!
