Katie Merkle 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Jay, NY

I want to cover your day in a way that highlights the joy and sincerity that surrounds you and the people you love. Some emotions are unbridled, but most are nuanced and fleeting. When you look back at your set of images, I want you to be transported back to that day and to have those feelings rekindled. My role is to be an observer and a listener. The less time I spend interrupting, the more time I can spend watching, waiting, and capturing the moments that should be remembered. If I’m there to record it, it’ll be without printed pages from other photographers you’d like to see imitated. I'll be there as me – and I’ll be capturing you.

Awarded Best of Zola
My search for a wedding photographer was pretty much a full time job. In fact, it was harder finding a wedding photographer than it was finding a man I wanted to marry. After spending hours and hours searching for the perfect wedding photographer, a google search found me Katie and I knew I had to work with her. From day 1 she was so easy to work with and was willing to work with me on my budget. I was extremely particular when it came to my photos and from the engagement photos to the wedding photos, she really hit it out of the park without me having to describe every little thing. The photos invoked the emotion/feeling I wanted from them and I particularly was wowed by her black and white photos. She clearly knows what she's doing and was able to work efficiently and work around a ton of sudden changes. I was a bundle of nerves on my wedding day and really valued her calm, peaceful demeanor. She truly has an extraordinary style and eye for photography and she's my #1 recommendation for brides looking for timeless wedding photos that transcend what's trending today. We've since worked with her for family photos and she wowed us once again. Honestly I'd have her photograph every momentous occasion of my life if I could. If you go through her portfolio you'll see all different styles of weddings but each photo is stunning. God forbid if I ever have another wedding, partnering with Katie is a no-brainer.

Justin Lee Weddings 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Serves Jay, 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.

We LOVE to make people dance !!!!!! Our music library is enormous, if you can dance to it, we probably play it. Great party music that will have EVERYONE on the dance floor. We play all styles of music and sound amazing. Our goal is to make your event AMAZING

Being that we booked our wedding 18 months in advance we had the luxury of listening to just about every band in the Albany area. What we loved about Grand Central Station was, consistency ( same band members all the time), professionalism, cost, and references. We spoke to couples who had them at their wedding and the general consensus was they exceed their expectations. Hands down the best band in the area. If you are looking for a fun time with a band that can play ALL styles of music, you need to hire Grand Central Station

Katherine Frizzell Films 

5.0

  • Videographer
  • Vintage style
  • Starts at $1,200
  • Serves Jay, NY

I create short films from your old home movies and favorite photographs. Process: First, we'll chat and you tell me everything you'd like to share about you or your loved ones featured in the footage. I'll walk you through selecting the photos/videos to best tell your story. You gather all the footage (feel free to outsource to family + friends!) and send to me. And that's it! I take it from there and get to work creating a short film that reflects you + your unique story.

My mom hired Katherine to create a video for my wife and I - we saw the video for the first time at the wedding welcome party alongside everyone else and it was one of the highlights of the weekend. It seamlessly connected all the old home movies, from both sides, throughout the years and was such an amazing way to highlight and celebrate the joining of two families.

We currently service over 25 metropolitan areas throughout the lower 48, and provide musical entertainment for hundreds of events every year. Our past clients include The United Nations, Lockheed Martin, Nationwide Auto Insurance, The Shell Oil Corporation, and many more. No event is too small or large for us.

I was blown away by the talent of the musicians, they really take their craft seriously. I requested a Roaring Twenties theme from Louis Pettinelli and they went above and beyond to make it happen. The singer Karlea was phenomenal and did an amazing job of keeping our guests engaged and entertained. The musicians were all courteous, professional, and exceptionally talented. They dressed appropriately for our wedding theme and many of the guests at the Hawthorne Hotel wanted to take pictures with Karlea in her Twenties attire. In addition to being a wonderful experience, they were also a great value for the price. These are top quality musicians and we paid a reasonable price for the band. I highly recommend this group for your wedding.

Debbie Gander Photography

  • Photographer

  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Jay, NY

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!

Working alongside Debbie was a joy! I was a videographer to a wedding she was photographing. To the couple, Debbie was patient, calm, and professional throughout the day, and helped the couple not only stay at ease during some stressful moments, but also enjoy their wedding day amidst the hiccups. To myself and the other vendors, Debbie was collaborative, creative, and flexible to each of the fellow vendors specific needs for the day. Her photos from the wedding were authentic, timeless, and stunning! I would highly recommend Debbie Gander Photography to any couple looking for a photographer for their wedding!

Award winning Videographer team that specialize in the very best day of service. Telling your story of the entire day from start to finish with a Cinematic touch. Everything filmed in 4k with the ability to livestream.

If I could give Chris more than 5 stars, I WOULD! He did such an amazing job at our wedding! Not only was he professional and punctual, but he went above and beyond! Helped me stay calm when we hit a couple bumps along the way, brought me water after the ceremony (I hadn’t realized I hadn’t drank any for awhile), made sure I had drinks throughout the night, but also made sure I ate before attending to my guests! He helped me take care of myself in the midst of the chaos! My husband and I read our vows privately before the ceremony and Chris already sent that over and I have cried so many times watching it already because he captured the moment perfectly! I can’t wait to see the rest of the footage! 10000/10 would recommend Chris for your wedding videographer!

  • Serves Jay, NY

Our films are classic. No filters or vintage film styles that quickly date your video. You’ll be watching this for the rest of your life so we want to make sure it stands the test of time. Our artistic approach lies in finding the authentic moments, in between snapshots, where you’re swept up in excitement and emotion. We think of our films as moving family portraits. We offer affordable aerial drone, 4K, multi-day coverage & more from $4980.

I've been a wedding planner in NYC for over 8 years and NST Pictures have been my go-to videog team since the day we connected! I even hired them for my own wedding back in 2016. They're just really great to work with, the process is always very smooth and on the wedding day you won't have those crazy lights and giant cameras in your face, you won't even know they are there, which is the true beauty of working with them. They coordinate and work alongside your photography team and you get to just live in the moment, and soak up every second of fun on your wedding day all while not being posed or interrupted to re-do something. Then when the final video edits are being made and you have that final product you can also really appreciate why you chose to hire a videographer. They capture live moments in action that you just can't get with still photography. Knowing what I know now I would ensure to hire NST Pictures for my wedding day over and over again, they're truly amazing!

Mama Juke

  • Band or Ensemble

Mama Juke is a gumbo of New Orleans influenced blues, blue-eyed soul, funk, and folk. Actor/singer Elijah Bridges brings elements of bluegrass and rag with his soulful harmonica, acoustic guitar, and voice. Amos Rose is a world traveling multi-instrumentalist who also sings and plays lead Telecaster guitar, and was recently featured by Jazz at Lincoln Center. Brendan O’Grady is an in-demand session musician and fixture on the greater New York scene since his roots growing up in Yonkers. Drummer Jon Wert is a sought-after musician, collaborating with a wide variety of artists in the jazz, rock, pop production shows and songwriter worlds.

We booked Mama Juke for our 9/24/2022 wedding and they did not disappoint. I can’t say I wasn’t nervous, as they didn’t have any reviews posted yet, but Jon was very helpful in addressing all our concerns and they kept our guests entertained and dancing all night long! They learned our first dance song- Golden Hour by Kacey Musgraves and put their own flair to it, which we loved. They are such a fun mix of rock, jazz, bluegrass, country and played a good mix of songs for all ages. I would also recommend listening to some of their original songs and including them in your day, my husband and I were so happy we did. :) I want to have another wedding just so we can have them play again!

Key Moment Films

  • Serves Jay, NY

Anywhere near the ocean is where we like to be. I prefer historical places to modern venues, climbing stairs to elevators, and good puns over sounding sophisticated. I love immersing myself into the family traditions. Blending right in as one of the family members on a wedding day is vital to capturing authentic moments. Oh- and I usually make friends with the dog first. There is no destination too far or an idea too crazy—I have hung off the bow of sailboats, woke up at 3 am to film meteor showers and filmed backward on rollercoasters to document couples’ love stories. - #loveislove

Mary and her team were a pleasure to work with - they are professional, but they are also tons of fun and they brought such positive energy to our wedding day. We are so excited to see our wedding video!

I started my photography journey as a simple hobby where I carried my camera with me everywhere and took photos of everything. Over time, I began to develop my skills into a more sophisticated / professional style as you might expect for weddings and other formal events. I paired up with a local multi award winning wedding photographer who helped me in refining my skills and taught me the ins and outs of wedding photography and I've never looked back. Since then, I have started my own business as a photographer and take pride in my style and skill as being mostly self taught, candid, emotional and captivating.

Russell has worked with me on several weddings and his drone footage and videography was amazing as well as the stills. He is a dream to work with, all the couples loved him and I am looking forward to working with him again in the future.

My passion for photography started at a very young age. Polaroid,Kodak, disposable cameras anything I could get my hands on for as long as I can remember. After working for several years in photojournalism and editing I decided to make the switch to a full time wedding photographer in 2010. I haven’t looked back since. I love the rush and excitement of the wedding day. The ability to meet new people and travel new places. Every weekend I get to experience different families, friends, foods and cultures. It’s not a job it’s a gift. My gift in return to you is images I pour my heart and soul into.

My husband and I could not imagine our wedding without Blue Jar Photo. Meg is truly an artist and captured such beautiful and unique shots of our wedding. If you're looking to commemorate the candid and intimate moments of your special day, Blue Jar Photo can do just that. I could not be happier with our engagement and wedding photos. I highly recommend Blue Jar Photo! Absolutely amazing!

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 also been awarded several merits of distinction and photography awards in the USA.

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!

R&B, Motown, Funk Soul, Jazz, Reggae, Swing, Rock, Pop, Disco, and Top 40 are only a few of the decades represented in our music. Five of our eight members sing lead vocals so we are able to offer a wide range of music to choose from. If you are looking for a high-energy, fun, versatile live wedding band with a flair for style and sophistication you have found us!

Renee and Shaded Soul Band were the life of the party at our wedding in Madison CT this June!! After speaking with a number of Boston and NY based bands, we came across Shaded Soul and had the opportunity to chat with Renee. For the first time in the process we didn't feel like we were being sold magazines at the door or an overpriced used car with hidden problems. Renee spoke with us like we were real people, had endless tips and tricks for planning a fantastic reception, and didn't nickel and dime us for every extra note sung or string strummed. Renee and Shaded Soul provided music for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. They accommodated our friends acoustic guitar number during the ceremony, played playlists we had put together during times they weren't playing, but when it came time to play the right song to keep everyone on the dance floor, we left it to the band and they made all the right choices.... we saved money on booze because no one would take a break from dancing to go to the bar! The musicianship of this band is top notch, they are all masters of their crafts and unlike many other wedding bands they have clearly been playing together for years. No rotating through a roster of musicians, booking the band under the same name at multiple events in one night, just a group of talented players with a deep repertoire whose passion is getting people to dance and have a great time. A huge thanks to Renee and Shaded Soul Band for helping make our wedding the best night of our lives!

She was very responsive, flexible and kept me informed where she was in the process of preserving the bouquet. I picked it up today and I am blown away, along with everyone I’ve shown, with how it turned out! It’s truly a piece of art and they are so beyond talented!

Bringing a luxury makeup experience from New Jersey to south Florida, Giuliana is a makeup artist and licensed cosmetologist with a decade of experience. From the first inquiry, to the moment you look in the mirror on your wedding day, Giuliana is with you every step of the way to make sure you walk down the aisle with the bridal look of your dreams.

I found Giulianna on Zola and booked her for my bridal hair and make up for my wedding day. I did a trial hair and make up based on some inspiration photos, and I took some notes of things I wanted to change or try differently on my wedding day. For my wedding she had those notes and made the changes happen! I was SO happy with my overall experience and final look. She was always very professional, sweet, and really nice to work with. I definitely recommend!

enjoy! has been providing live music for all styles of events for close to 20 years along the Jersey Shore. The band has performed over 300 weddings in it's tenure and has carved out a unique niche in providing powerful performances for the live music lover.

We first saw Enjoy! playing a show at one of our favorite local bars the summer before our wedding and after a few songs, we knew they would be our perfect wedding band. Not only are all of the members extremely talented, but they played an awesome combination of songs that we love dearly from artists like Phish, Jimi Hendrix & Talking Heads. Once we met John and the rest of the band, we knew their personalities meshed so well with ours and it was the perfect match. They were extremely easy to work with when we planned out our song list and gave us great recommendations. When it came to the actual wedding day we were blown away! Not only did they do an awesome job on the songs we requested, they added some more that they felt would keep the party going. We still get comments on how awesome our band was to this day. We could not have picked a better group of guys and we highly recommend them to anyone who wants their music to make their wedding! And added bonus: they are great guys - a ton of fun! Any time we get the chance, we go and see their shows. Thank you guys!!!! You are the best.
