NataliaRes Beauty 

5.0

Bronx, NY
  • Beauty professional
  • Serves Howard Beach, NY

My passion for makeup and hair artistry was visible since a very young age. At 16 years old, I entered my first creative competition and placed top 3 for all of Long Island, New York. After years of pursuing hair/makeup as a hobby, I wanted to take my craft to a professional level and wound up at the London AOFM. The journey from NY to London gave me an entirely different perspective of the beauty industry. While learning from top artists from around the world, I honed in on and advanced my technique. I am now a freelance artist working in Bridal and with the Photo Studio Group specializing in modeling portfolios.

Ashley Guice Creative

Ashley Guice Creative is a Phoenix-based luxury wedding photographer with a passion for capturing the beauty of human connection. Since 2017, Ashley Guice has been creating stunning images that blend artistic flair with genuine emotion. With over seven years of experience in photography and a decade-long background in the arts, she brings a unique perspective to every event she covers.

We couldn't be happier with our experience working with Ashley! From start to finish, she was an absolute joy to work with. Her attention to detail and creativity truly brought our vision to life, capturing every moment beautifully. We had an unfortunate cancellation of our original venue, and with our new venue having a completely different look, Ashley was a great thought partner in scouting locations and helping us achieve the look and feel in our photos that we were going for. Despite the challenges of a venue change and the usual wedding planning craziness, Ashley remained positive, resourceful, and was also just down right fun to work with! Ashley is a true artist, dedicated to the artful execution of every detail. Nothing felt cookie-cutter or ordinary—she took the time to understand our vision and how we wanted to remember the day and then actualized it through her artistic lens. I wanted something artful, chic, and elevated but also real, candid, and documentary-style—and Ashley delivered exactly that. She was also fantastic at understanding how we wanted to be photographed throughout the day. More than anything, she made sure our enjoyment of the day was a priority over just "getting the perfect shot," which was crucial for us. We were able to enjoy every moment, and the photos capture that perfectly. Her team was amazing, too! We got to work with two of her assistant photographers, and they were just as supportive and friendly as Ashley. We would recommend AGC to any couple looking for a photography team who is dedicated to capturing the essence of your wedding in a way that feels unique, personal, and meaningful. - L & L

Cappy Hotchkiss Photography 

5.0

Beacon, NY
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,000
  • Serves Howard Beach, NY

I grew up in Amagansett, NY, one town away from Montauk, hanging out at the ocean, riding horses, and photographing my plastic Breyer horse models in different scenarios with my little crappy film camera, always searching for the perfect light. I have since moved on to photographing people with better equipment and I still always search for that perfect light. I now live in the lovely Hudson Valley after a long stint in NYC and Brooklyn where I trained under fashion and editorial photographers before starting my own photography business almost 20 years ago. Full disclosure, I'm a little scared of the ocean.

I have had the pleasure of working with Cappy Hotchkiss many times through the years and am always blown away by her upbeat energy and enthusiasm that she carries throughout the wedding day. Couples love working with her. She is professional, charming, a great sense of humor and her work is stellar. Her photographs are candid and emotionally stirring. Most importantly, they will warm your heart.

The SpeechLess Party Band is the collaboration of 6-11 musicians trained to play music without words and adding top-notch vocalists equaling music with MORE MELODY! ‘More than a cover band’ means the band doesn’t just play songs, they make them their own.

I could not recommend Speechless enough. They are always one of my go-to vendors when my wedding clients are looking for professional and extremely talented people to perform on their wedding day. Not only do they provide the perfect background music for a ceremony or cocktail hour, they also have a great line up of party bands that turn the wedding into the amazing party it should be. Speechless has a great presence on the wedding day that is both calming and energetic and I know I can always rely on them to get the job done.

Daphne reached out to our family saying she wanted to expand her business in Atlanta, so we gave her a chance!

There were for sure a few hiccups the week of the wedding with timing and pickup, but she 100% made it up on wedding day. Her and her team were so on it, on top of setting up and breaking down all decor, they went above and beyond to communicate with vendors, keep me in a good mood, and handle any last minute issues!

Chemistry is important to us, we believe in getting to know our clients and tailoring our services to their exact needs!

Kerry Gittle was the most amazing wedding planner we could dream of. After our first Zoom meeting when looking for planners we knew that she was the one. From the moment we hired her 16 months before our wedding all the way up until our wedding day, she went above and beyond for us the entire time. Kerry is extremely professional (as well as the rest of her team) but she always treats her clients as friends too which makes it an extremely comfortable relationship during an extremely stressful time. That was something that we appreciated and we did not take for granted. She was basically absorbing our stresses in order for us to focus on what we needed to do. You can literally call her at 3 in the morning and she will take care of whatever you need. She was on call 24/7 for us and took care off everything from A to Z 16 months out all the way up until the wedding day. Long story short, we had the PERFECT wedding that all our guests can attest to and we literally owe it all to Kerry. BEST WEDDING PLANNER EVER. 100 out of 100!

I'm a Boston based weddings & elopement photojournalist serving New England & beyond. My style is authentic, nostalgic, and a calculated blend of soft and romantic + moody and edgy.

I believe it’s my job to remind you of how beautiful and fleeting life is. My hope is that after our session is over, my work turns into some of your most cherished memories decorating your home and your hearts.

Hi! I'm Chrissy. I've been lucky enough to photograph weddings and meet tons of awesome couples since 2014. I'm based in Boston, MA but I'm always more than happy to travel anywhere your adventure takes you. My work has brought me as far as Tokyo and I'm so ready to explore more new places! In my down time I love to surf, paint, go to concerts, and watch horror movies. I'm full of useless astrology facts and I always have extra snacks with me.

Chrissy is an absolutely amazing photographer. I’ve followed her work for years and knew as soon as we got engaged that Chrissy would be our photographer. During the process I stressed to Chrissy I just didn’t want the same traditional boring poses/portraits for either our engagement photos or wedding photos and she delivered! Granted, there were some exceptions for family photos of course, but overall exactly what we wanted. Chrissy made us feel extremely comfortable and I trusted her judgement on everything. She is easy to work with and really goes above and beyond to make sure that your day goes smoothly. Thank you so much for everything! You really helped capture the love and happiness on our wedding day!

Alessarro Beauty 

5.0

Brooklyn, NY
  • Beauty professional
  • Team of 4
  • Serves Howard Beach, NY

I thought I would share with you what 'Alessarro' means. 'Ales' ... taken from Alessio ... my mother's family name & 'sarro' ... taken from DiSarro ... my father's family name Growing up I was very fortunate to be close to both sides of my family. So why not name my business after the people the helped mold me into the woman that I am today. I am also forever indebted to many of them for stepping up to be a model as I cultivated my artistic ability.

I loved working with Ashley and her team at Alessaro Beauty for our September 2021 wedding. Our wedding was affected by COVID-19 and we ended up shifting our date to over a year out. Ashley was extremely accommodating and worked with us to update the contract to our new date without hassle. I met with Ashley and her hair stylist, Zuleika, for a trial a month or so before the wedding. It was a great opportunity to meet in person, talk about the wedding vision, and get to know them better to ultimately feel more comfortable on the day. I was initially drawn to Ashley because she not only does weddings, but also high fashion, film & TV, and other events in NYC, which was important to me for a chic look. She has such extensive product knowledge + expertise, and as a makeup/skincare lover myself, I really enjoyed talking through all the products she was using. The makeup trial wasn’t exactly what I had in mind, so we discussed alternatives and shared reference photos via email to nail down the final look. To start, Ashley did my and my sister’s makeup for the rehearsal dinner, which was stunning and got us excited to kick off the weekend. On the day of the wedding, Ashley and her team arrived on time and were a joy to have getting ready in the bridal suite. They did hair and makeup for not only myself and 6 bridesmaids, but also my mother, MIL, and SIL, so it was a tall order and they absolutely nailed it. I was OBSESSED with my final bridal look - I loved the false eyelashes and the gorgeous Mac lipstick (which Ashley gifted so I could reapply throughout the day). I truly felt like a show-stopping bride and the absolute best version of myself. We arranged for Ashley to stay throughout the first look, ceremony, and the start of the reception to do a few touch ups, which honestly was the best decision to keep me looking gorg all day and night. At the end of the experience, Ashley proved to be more like a friend than a vendor. She is so kind, enthusiastic, and truly has a passion for what she does, which shines through every interaction. I highly recommend Ashley and her team at Alessaro Beauty for your wedding or event.

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.

I cannot explain how amazing this husband and wife team are! Jillian and Ryan were an absolute dream to work with. Hands down our favorite vendors!! So easy to work with and their photography skills are out of this world. We will cherish our pictures forever. And they couldn't be more down to earth. They're fun, warm, passionate, responsive, talented, creative... I could go on and on! They captured us as a couple perfectly. We have received so many compliments on how beautiful our photos turned out and how awesome our photographers were! We are so thrilled that we picked Jillian + Ryan for our photographers. I could not recommend them enough!

Hi, I'm Mei! I first started out in photography just taking photos of friends in college, and now I get to photograph weddings, performances, celebrations, special events, and everything in between. Whether you're a natural in front of the camera or you hide whenever one comes out (like me!), I'm ready to capture you at your most radiant.

I am not exaggerating when I say that the thing we have gotten the most complements on since our special day is the photos themselves. Mei is phenomenal at capturing tender and exuberant moments AS THEY HAPPEN. Nothing looks staged because nothing felt staged. She was there with us to make every step of what could have been a very stressful day feel as fun, loving, and exciting as possible. From booking to planning to the wedding weekend itself, Mei was communicative, gentle, and intentional. She wasn't just there to capture the weekend, she improved it in every way. I could not imagine a better photographer to work with—from communication to vibes to the photos themselves, Mei is the best of the best!

Bringing along my expertise as both wedding planner and travel agent, I’m your personal concierge for all your wedding and travel arrangements! It’s my pleasure to walk with you on a wedding planning journey that is elegant, sophisticated, and enjoyable!

Brooke once told me during one of our many consultations, that the name of her business was “practically perfect” because nothing is ever 100% perfect, but her goal is to get it as close as possible. I didn’t realize how right she would be. First off the vendors she chose- the catering, the dj, the hair and makeup artist, the bartender, the florist… every single one of these vendors came through in a big way for me! They all knocked it out of the park, and that’s mostly because of Brooke! She knew what she was doing when she chose them, and she handled pretty much all of the communication. I just had to give approval and tell them exactly what I wanted, and Brooke made sure that happened. You just have to trust that you chose her for a reason and that she is going to make the right decisions. Every single thing about my day exceeded my expectations. Now let’s talk about her professionalism. I had someone at my wedding be… not so nice to her. Not Brooke’s fault. She handled it with grace and professionalism both during and after the situation, and made sure it caused as little of a hiccup as possible during my day. I can’t tell you how much it meant to me that Brooke was there for me every single step of the way taking care of things. I’m sure there’s things she tackled that I don’t even know about, and for that I am grateful also. Brooke, thank you from the bottom of my heart for everything you did for me. You never once seemed stressed or overwhelmed which put me at ease during this process. I am so grateful for you, my wedding wouldn’t have been the same without you!

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.

We worked with Bethany and Raquel for our 2023 wedding in August. Not only are they both super personable, they truly made us feel organized as well as made the entire picture process amazing (and fun) the day of. Our wedding gallery was delivered on time within the 2 week frame they provide and we got well over 1,000 photos. We had so much fun looking through our album! We could not have chosen a better team to work and we are so thrilled we trusted our big day with R&B. THANK YOU!

Our big day at the 3 West Club in Manhattan was beautifully captured by her. From the get-go, Daria made us feel comfortable and relaxed, which showed in the natural shots she got. The photos are like something out of a fancy magazine – seriously, they're stunning! Daria has this way of playing with light that made every moment magical. Candid photos? She's a pro. And the way she highlighted us and the venue – just perfect. She even scouted around the venue and found these amazing spots for photos that we hadn't even noticed. And the best part? We got our photos super quickly, and they looked amazing. We also got 30 preview photos back on a next day! Daria's photos didn't just freeze our wedding moments; they turned them into forever art.

My work is inspired by romantic minimalism, modern elegance, and non-traditional perspectives. From stolen glances to joyous celebrations, I strive to capture what is at the heart of your relationship, weaving together a narrative that is uniquely yours. I blend a unique mix of documentary and editorial style photography in my craft: the documentary style to capture the events of your day in close detail, and the editorial style to provide copious amounts of posing guidance so you and your loved ones feel confident that you look like your absolute best in your photos.

After interviewing a few photographers for my proposal, Sravya clearly stood out to me as the best one for the job. She was very responsive, flexible, and kind. Most importantly, I loved her vision and support day of during the shoot. Her artistic eye made the photos turn out beautiful! She also delivered all of the pictures on time. Highly recommend working with Sravya!

Kristen was awesome to work with. She is super professional and organized. She was by our side helping us get ready in the morning. She was so helpful and had great tips. She was also prepared with safety pins that one of my bridesmaids needed. She was super chill and relaxed which also kept us relaxed. Our wedding was mid November and it was pretty cold outside but Kristen stood out there with us getting amazing photos. Our sneak peak photos look beautiful and warm, you can't even tell it's 30 degrees! Later in the evening, she was about to leave but we decided we wanted more photos. We asked if she could stay one more hour and thankfully she was able to. We definitely appreciated the last minute flexibility. If we could do it all over again we would!

About 80% of the day I am capturing your day as it naturally unfolds in a beautiful way. The other 20% I love to prompt you or direct you to create romantic images that have intention and FEELING. Sometimes portraits will feel romantic and editorial and other times they will feel playful and fun. It fully depends on your personal relationship. I love to tell your story as authentically as I can.

Six years of taking bright, colorful, fun wedding photos in the city has taught me how to deliver a complete gallery of your day told in an artistic, meaningful, and unobtrusive way--because I'm here to document your day, not to direct it. As much as I love taking photos (it's truly my favorite thing in the world!), I believe your wedding is about celebrating all your people being in the same place at the same time + kicking back and enjoying while I make sure all those memories are on camera.

Awarded Best of Zola
Alana and I connected over Instagram shortly after Nick and I got engaged. Over the course of a year, I fell more in love with her shot style, her colors, and just about everything she posted. She and I messaged, liked, and commented so it was nice having as much of a connection as people can have through Instagram before booking. When we decided to book she helped so much with ideas for outfits, time of day, and locations to shoot as well!! When we scheduled our engagement shoot, it worked perfectly to where she could come to our location while she was in Cinci. Day of the shoot, anything that could have gone wrong, went wrong BUT Alana handled everything with such flexibility and ease. We were able to get shots before and after the torrential downpour that forced us to change locations and WE ARE IN LOVE with the photos. I seriously can’t say enough amazing things about her. She makes us even more excited for our wedding just through looking at our engagement photos and the photos she shares on her blog/website/Instagram. Long story short: book her. She’s your girl for all things wedding ❤️❤️

My wife and I met Sarah a few years ago when she photographed our friend’s wedding. She did such a great job that we had to have her do our wedding as well. My sister is getting married next year and I told her not to bother interviewing any photographers other than Sarah. You will not find anyone who will do a better job. We absolutely love the way our wedding photos came out. Sarah is so creative and has such an artistic eye which made our pictures unique and very cool. She was so awesome to work with. She really cares about her work and her clients and it really shows. In addition to being a great photographer, she is very sweet and genuine. We felt so comfortable with her which makes a huge difference! Not to mention, a photographer that can make you smile and laugh makes for some pretty great pictures! Her communication was clear and quick from the very beginning, which is super important in the wedding planning process. She really listened to what we wanted and what we didn’t want. I could not recommend Sarah more. She went above and beyond all expectations and by the end, we are happy to call her a friend! If you are planning a wedding/event, do yourself a favor and call her!

I simplify the wedding planning process, ensuring every event exudes modernity, timeless luxury, and incredible detail while providing an iconic experience for everyone. I first fell in love with weddings when I watched The Wedding Planner as a child, and I've now been planning events for over a decade. I'm obsessed with the details and ensuring every event is as unique as its hosts.

Talk about making the impossible, possible! I had worked with MVW Events to plan a surprise engagement picnic for my then girlfriend, now wife. Around the time, I was wrapping up my graduate program and set to graduate the day after I planned on proposing. MVW helped me set the vision for the picnic and coordinated sourcing vendors for the right deals on items that would make the moment extra special. With all the details in place, I was confident in what we had planned and was actually less nervous about the whole bended knee thing because of it. Fast forward to the day of and guess what ... It RAINED!! so the park area I had in mind did not allow folks on the grass after fresh rain so we had to change plans on the fly. Morgan and her super creative brain proposed she and her team set up everything in my apartment instead. That way we could have everything we needed for the occasion within arms reach. She even secretly met me while I was out with my partner at a school event to grab my apartment keys and head over to set everything up while I was out. When we got home, when I say the place looked like MAGIC!! We were both blown away (but of course I had an idea of what to expect). And of course, it went perfectly from there. We are now coming on a year happily married and I would not have had the confidence to execute such a plan on my own. THANK YOU Morgan & Team!! 10/10 Recommend!

However, Hanel and his assistant made us feel at ease during both shoots, and gave easy directions for us to follow throughout that ultimately made us feel confident and comfortable in front of the camera. They were so welcoming/friendly, and we felt like we were just hanging out with our friends for the day. Hanel was able to handle the chaos that were my family and friends on the wedding day, and easily navigated all the different groupings for photos the day of with immense ease. He kept to our wedding timeline without making us feel rushed. Our photos were sent back to us quickly after a month, and they were absolutely gorgeous.

Hi! I’m Julia, middle name Margo, a film school dropout and music buff who wants to make your wedding look like art. I'm here to represent diversity in the couples I work with and weddings I shoot (love is love), to give you something hyper-shareable that will instantly transport you in space and time for the rest of your lives, and to make you cry upon watching. The crying is very important. Bear with me on this analogy, but basically I like my wedding films like I like my salads: raw, organic, a little bit of quirk and flare, and consumed alongside great music. If this sound pretty good to you, have a look at my work and get in touch!

Margo Sees Stars created the most beautiful wedding video for my sister’s 2018 wedding so when it came time to choose my video team, working with Julia and her team was a no-brainer! As expected, our second experience with Julia and team was as comfortable and seamless as the first! If I had another sibling, Margo Sees Stars would be the videographer of choice!

A dad, a son, a brother and a jack of all trades musician that loves to rock out any chance I get. I grew up in New York City. My inclination towards photography came from classic street photography and photojournalists from all over the world that told their stories through a lens. It made me pick up a camera and start shooting. Now, living in Maryland I shoot all sorts of stories and moments locally, domestically, and abroad. It's taken me a while to figure out what my "thing" is but I've come to figure out that I'm a milestone photographer. The moments your life that have proven to be meaningful -- I'll be there.

Based in Jersey City, I've been photographing weddings since 2010. I have two degrees in photography and wouldn't change a moment of what I do or how I got here. I spent 5 years producing celebrity photo shoots for magazines like Time Out and InStyle, so keeping cool under fast-paced pressure is kind of my thing. I'm always trying to push the envelope with what I do, whether that's finding a way to make better photos or optimize your experience with me.

Lauren is the absolute GOAT. Her photography style drew us to her, and then her professionalism, excellent organization, fun personality, and take charge yet flexible attitude made us die-hard Lauren fans. I loved working with her so much that I also hired her to work on my business' branding shoot. And honestly, how could I work with anyone else after working with the greatest of all time? Thank you x a million to Lauren for making our wedding photography an absolute dream from start to finish!

This is the easiest part of your wedding planning. PICK THEM. Of all aspects of the wedding, the photographer was one of our highest priorities. We combed the internet researching photographers that would capture our wedding in a very specific, lovely, meanful and not cheesy way. We did what felt like days of research and found Forged In the North through a recommendation from another photographer who highly regarded their style and ease in the field. FIN is punctual, professional, kind, lovely to be around and bananas talented. I have bullied two close friends into using them and they were also thrilled with their work. Both of my sisters used them as well and the love and beautiful photos continues. I cannot recommend them enough. Also, spring for the video if you can, worth every penny.

I found Jura through Instagram, where all of her arrangements were not only beautiful, but felt organic, interesting and creative. After meeting with Migle, the owner of Jura, I was excited to support a newer small business like Migle's. She has had plenty of experience within the event/florist industry prior to starting her own business. She put together a quote that was very reasonable. In the month leading up to our wedding date, I met with Migle to finalize our design ideas. She included an update with specific flowers and art inspiration the week leading up to the event, and we emailed back-and-forth to finalize a couple small details prior to the event. All of the florals, from the bouquets (to color match the bridesmaids' dresses!), the centerpieces, the bar installation, fireplace installation-wow!!- words can't describe how beautiful they were and how they were exactly what I was hoping for and more! I'm so happy and grateful Jura was a part of our day at the Bowery Hotel. Migle's artistry and talent is truly so special. I HIGHLY recommend Jura and their team!

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.
