Jenna Rosalie Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Long Island City, NY for additional fees

I was the student who had no idea what she wanted to do after High School. As my peers were applying to college with a clear career path in mind, I struggled to choose just one route. I could see myself in so many roles, and yet none of them fit JUST right. In 2011, my son was born and a new path appeared on my map: Motherhood. This role took over and nothing else mattered. The year progressed and my son grew, and grew and grew some more. I bought my first DSLR to document that rapidly growing boy of mine. It wasn't long before those peers from high school came to me to document their lives as well, and my career path was finally chosen.

When I first reached out to Jenna I was very concerned about how our timeline would work, before even hiring her she sent a mocked up time line for what our day would look like. That's the moment I knew I had to hire her- she put my mind at ease. She went with all of our ideas from our engagement shoot including our dog to the day of timeline where we told her we wanted to enjoy happy hour. They respected all of our requests and captured the MOST BEAUTIFUL PHOTOS. People are constantly impressed when I show them our wedding album and they captured the magic of the day while allowing us to enjoy ourselves as well. Any and all questions I had, she answered. I'm a very anxious person and any time I talked to Jenna ahead of the wedding she put my mind at ease.

Fourth Photography, LLC

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,299
  • Serves Long Island City, NY for additional fees

I'm William, a dedicated and passionate photographer/videographer based in Washington, DC. My love of photography was born out of my love of travel. While exploring other countries and cultures, I was using my phone to document the people that I met and the places that I have been. This led me to buy my first professional-level camera; it has been with me ever since. I consider my photography style to be timeless. When I'm not behind the lens, you'll find me at my local movie theater or spending quality time with my family and friends.

Fourth Photography, LLC was a wonderful choice for our wedding photography. From the start, the photographer was incredibly helpful, friendly, and punctual in all of our communications. On the day of our engagement photos, it was very windy and cold, but the photographer remained professional throughout and made sure to get all the special moments, even going the extra mile to spot a great location we hadn't noticed and encouraging us to stay for some extra photos. The final photos were absolutely beautiful and captured all the joy and details of our special day. We're so grateful for their attentive service and the wonderful, high-quality work they provided.

I have been photographing weddings professionally for 14 years and have reached the phase in my career where I can relax and have fun with my couples knowing that I have the skills and experience to back up my passion and creativity. I split my time between the Gulf Coast of Florida and New England, though I now call Maine home. I am both a dog & cat person - I have a Golden Retriever named Oliver, a lab mix named Juniper, a Maine Coon named Meadow, a Siamese mix named Healy, and a teeny little runt-of-the-litter kitty named Lucie. I am an avid audiobook listener - if I am editing, cleaning, or driving, I most likely have an audiobook going!

We had a wonderful time doing our engagement shoot with Tara! She was so easy to work with and made us feel comfortable throughout the process. We wanted to have our dog included in our photos as well and she worked so well with him and the photos turned out so great!! Thanks Tara :)

Big or small, with her trained eye Danielle captures every brushstroke to fully realize the memory of your special day.

We hired Danielle for our elopement, and by the end of the day, it felt like she was a close friend. Then we got the photos — WOW. We will truly cherish this forever.

Like with anything I do, I’ve put much heart, work and energy into photography. Yet, the most rewarding part are still the emotions, and happy messages I get from my clients. Nothing charges and empowers me more. On your wedding day, you shouldn't have to worry, cause I am there to help you in every way possible. I make sure your dress is all nice and fluffed in every picture, that there is nothing in your teeth, I catch every fly away and I am there to be your hype girl.

Grace was an absolute gem of a human on the day of my wedding and leading up to it. I can't get over how stunning the photos are just from the sneak peek gallery. She has such an eye for unique shots and is amazing at directing you as well as your overly-stimulated new husband. We coordinated a ton of surprise aspects and were able to pull them off with Grace's help. She also ended up fixing boutonnieres, ensuring my hair looked amazing before each shot, and worked so well with our videographer, planner and all other vendors. I can't wait to see the full gallery and can't recommend her enough!

Someday, years from now, someone close to you will ask about your wedding day - someone that may not have been able to be there, or a new friend or family member who you have welcomed into your life. As you sit on your couch and reminisce while sipping on a cup of coffee, rather than just telling them about your wedding day - I want you to be able to show them. Photographs have an amazing ability to freeze special moments in time. I want to do that for you.

Julia was a complete joy to work with for our engagement photos and then wedding! From the day we met I knew my (then) fiancé and I would be able to relax and be comfortable in front of her camera. She was so much fun to work with and had us in beautiful but still comfortable poses/positions. Her and her husband shot our wedding and they were so patient throughout hectic family photos.

  • Serves Long Island City, NY for additional fees

My name is Helena, pronounced Ha-Leen-nuh (don't worry I get it all the time haha) I am a San Francisco native and ex-Silicon Valley techie who decided to take leap of faith (during the pandemic) to pursue my dreams of being a full-time Wedding Photographer. This journey has been SO wild, but I don't regret a minute of it. When you hire me, you hire not only a photographer, but a planner and a cheerleader as well ;) If you like dogs or cats, coffee (oat milk lattes FTW), thriving plants, outdoor adventures, dancing, and sunsets, I think we'll get along great ;)

Helena skillfully captured our most joyous and precious moments of our wedding day. She was everything we wished for in a wedding photographer and more! A unique vision. On multiple occasions, Helena would excitedly pose us in a certain position or she would run up some stairs to capture a certain angle. I knew I was watching an artist in her element. She is so stunningly creative in her use of the environment. My favorite example of this was when Helena had a whimsical idea to use the afternoon light through the window to cast a silhouette of us on the wall. The shot left us in awe. It is one of my favorites! The right time and place. Helena has a unique way of knowing what might happen next so she can position herself to capture subtle and sweet moments. For example, during the reception, right after we made our toast to all our guests, I sat back down next to my Mom who then leaned in for a quick hug and a kiss. I barely remembered it (was starving and a bit tipsy). Imagine my delight to find that precious little memory captured in the sneak peaks we received shortly after! I still can't believe Helena captured that. It's one of those "is someone cutting onions?" pictures that I will cherish. A friend. Helena made us feel at ease and comfortable throughout our three sessions: the ceremony, welcome party, and the reception. All our friends enjoyed their time meeting Helena and complimented her on her creativity (we heard all the ooh's and ah's as Helena was posing us). When we were posing with our parents who weren't very fluent in English, Helena spoke in Chinese to help direct them as well. Towards the end of our reception, we had to make sure we had a photo together so we can remember what a special part she had. We felt she went "above and beyond" for us. Helena is simply amazing. Hire her.

She took the time to get the details right, and put just the right amount of her artistic touch into each picture. Best of all, Sabrina is extremely kind, sweet, and funny-- the perfect addition to your special day. We feel very lucky to have worked with her. Her portfolio speaks for itself, as I'm sure you have already noticed!

Mario Oliveto Photography is genuine and heavily focused on real emotions, always believing that everyone has a story. Our photography makes you feel as if you were connected with those in front of the camera. Wedding photography is capturing real, raw, emotions, in the most beautiful fine art style.

We had nothing but positive experiences with Mario from engagement shoot to the big day! We used Mario for our engagement shoot in Philly about a year before our wedding. We were really unsure of locations and he had great suggestions that he ran by us and offered ideas ahead of time and during the shoot, he helped adjust as we looked at the lighting and space. We both expressed how unsure we were about taking professional pictures since this was a first for us and were not comfortable with a lot of the trendy shots and he really worked with us to make all the poses feel natural to us while still looking phenomenal. We decided to go with his associates for the big day based on our budget and they did not let down. Mario specifically picked two photographers who were familiar with our venue and had great suggestions for where to get the best shots. Our two associates, Rachel & Alyssa, were helpful, kind, fun, professional and absolute champs to get all the best pictures on our day. We had 100 degree temps and they worked so hard to make sure we were comfortable the entire time while not sacrificing the pictures we had planned for. They checked in with us often and were not afraid to tell our family that the group pictures were done so that we could actually enjoy cocktail hour (after confirming with us that is was what we wanted). They also took adorable couples pictures of our guests during lulls in the dinner service that my family and friends were beyond excited for. Mario and his associates are an absolute recommendation in my book and I can not say enough nice things about working with them!

She helped bring all my visions to reality, I couldn't ask for better! The results were stunning! Kira made me feel comfortable and confident during the photoshoot, which really showed in the results. I can tell she paid attention to each little detail.

Hey, how cool of you to end up here. I promise not to bore you with a bunch of flowery language or over-the-top promises. I love to document real moments. Weddings, elopements, couples' shenanigans - you name it, I am here for it. I do this with a healthy dose of humor, a dash of sarcasm and a whole lot of heart. So if you're looking for someone to capture your day in all its imperfect glory, say something, let's make it happen.

Loy at Sweet Lime takes some great photos. He was a joy to work with and helped set the room up by providing a suggestion that none of the restaurant staff, or us, had thought of which ended up working swimmingly. The day of the wedding, he was present but also not too if that makes sense. He was kind enough to send us a couple preview shots while we impatiently/patiently waited. The photos are well worth the wait. I would be happy to recommend Sweet Lime Photography. You will not be disappointed in his service.

Photos of the intangible: from moments of stillness to bursts of joy. What does love look like? A client once told me that I captured things in their wedding photos that until then they had only ever felt. I saw this as the ultimate compliment. My goal in every session is to do just that: Turn an intangible feeling into a tangible image that will make your heart soar every time you see it. But what does love look like?

Brooke Seminick Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From the moment we first spoke with Brooke, we were impressed by her creative, attentive, and authentic communication style. She demonstrated a deep dedication, enthusiasm, and passion for her work, as well as a wealth of knowledge that shone through in the quality of the photos she captured. Brooke was meticulous in documenting all the big moments of our special day, but it's the tiny, detailed pictures that really make me smile. She seemed to anticipate and capture moments I hadn't even thought to request, and I'm forever grateful. Tragically, my grandmother passed away shortly after our wedding, but I'll always have the amazing photos Brooke took to cherish and share with my children someday. I couldn't recommend Brooke Seminick Photography highly enough.
