Why weddings? Why events? Well, love, of course. I am a hopeless romantic who has a knack for theatre and a love for organization. So....voila! Wedding planner. I am the stage manager to your special day and I do it because I absolutely love it. I love love. I love family time and the important connections that are the fabric of our very being and certainly our important life moments.

I was so overwhelmed and stressed in the final months leading up to our wedding. After our initial consultation with Kayla, I felt like I could finally breathe. She just "got" me, and knew exactly what was on my mind before I even said it. I felt so reassured knowing that she was helping to track the millions of little details for our big day. From calls leading up to our wedding, to site visits and in-person meetings, I left each time a little lighter knowing that she had our back. I can't even begin to thank her for how above and beyond she went on our wedding weekend. I know there were a million fires she put out that I thankfully never even knew about. That's what working with Kayla meant for us - peace of mind and the ability to REALLY be present and take in our wedding day. It was truly worth it to work with such a professional and I wish I could go back in time and have hired her sooner!

At Gruber Photographers, we are inspired by one simple truth, “A moment is defined not only by its subject but also by the effect it has on those who share it.” We believe life’s milestones deserve to be photographed with this in mind. Every detail large and small. Every feeling from only the right angles. From the behind-the-scenes preparations to the spotlighted celebrations. Un-scripted, un-posed and nothing like traditional wedding photography.

From our first meeting, sending us little packages leading up to our wedding, to staying in contact after our wedding, they amazing to work with. The photos speak for themselves, they are simply stunning and timeless - I know I will love looking at them for years to come! They helped us think about every detail leading up to the wedding and made great suggestions when needed. Were flexible with their packages - we had her come to our rehearsal dinner instead of doing an engagement session. On the day of our wedding, they made us feel comfortable and that we could really be ourselves. I consider myself incredibly lucky to have worked with you guys!

The photographs I create tell the full story of your unique wedding day and capture all of the anticipation, laughter, emotion, joy, and excitement which comes along with it.

I offer a wide variety of packages that tailored to fit your day and always personally am available to discuss everything on your mind no matter how big or small.

Working with William was one of the best decisions I made. He was always super responsive and my wedding photos exceeded my high expectations. What I love about William is how easy going he is. Not all photographers are like this, but he really made my day stress free while still capturing amazing photos. My parents commented on how well he seemed to know who everyone was and focus in on them throughout the day. He made sure to get every single photo on my shot list and I really couldn't be more satisfied with how the photos came out. Book him for your wedding. He is so nice and amazing at what he does.

I'm a beauty, boudoir, & wedding photographer living in New Jersey with my husband and two kitties. We’re both originally from Upstate NY (and I mean WAY upstate like Rochester) where we grew up, fell in love, and I studied photography professionally. I photographed my first wedding in 2010 and haven’t looked back. Too many “I do’s” to count and I am still getting excited over your dress, I’m keeping your friends and family laughing, and I cannot wait to congratulate you after the ceremony. I know how lucky I am to photograph such momentous milestones and create images you’ll cherish 50 years down the road.

Bri Johnson is an absolute pleasure to work with, extremely organized, professional and so talented. The services and products offered by Bri are top notch and her presence alone went beyond any of our other vendors. Bri is very responsive and her online portal is super easy to use. With Bri's strong attention to detail we created a timeline of our wedding day early on and she was kind enough to distribute it to our other vendors as well. Bri kept our wedding day running smooth and the quality of our photos are seriously spectacular! It was so fun to share our blog the week after the wedding and I could spend hours looking through the online gallery. We didn't initially include a wedding album but after seeing the finished product, we just couldn't resist!

CLY BY MATTHEW has evolved at year 2004 from fashion, portrait and still life photography to the wonderful world of wedding photography, which incorporates all three genres. We follow a non-intrusive photojournalistic style for your weddings, which our clients (and their guests) very much appreciate. We concentrate not only on the big picture, but also we take pride in capturing the sincere fleeting moments that evoke the senses the very essence of photography.

Where do I start…I have so many things to praise about Matthew and his team at CLY by Matthew. The search for our photographer took forever, but once I found CLY and Matthew’s work, it was essentially an instantaneous decision. I left the intro meeting/conversation 100% sure we’d hire him. His and his team’s photography is beautiful, elegant, classic, and natural – and it was so easy to work with them from a fit and personality standpoint. I’ll admit, it’s a little awkward to pose for photography! But in the months leading up, and the day of, the wedding, Matthew and his team made us feel very comfortable in front of the camera. Matthew is one of the kindest people ever, and his calm demeanor made everything so pleasant and easy (especially with the frantic nature of wedding planning!) We are in LOVE with the photos we got back. We still can’t even believe it’s us, and our wedding, because the CLY team captured everything so amazingly. It’s surreal! We are so lucky to have found them and worked with Matthew. I’m hoping to find an excuse in the future to work with him again for professional photography. If you’re here and in the middle of researching photographers, stop reading and contact CLY immediately. You won’t regret it, I promise you.

Just a girl living in Brooklyn who is obsessed with her Frenchie named Yoshi. I started my photography business 10 years ago and it was the best decision I ever made. Throughout the years I've photographed every type of wedding you can think of and have been so lucky to call a lot of my clients friends now. If you're into it, I'm a true Enneagram 2 & a Pisces - what a combo right? To sum it up, I'm emotional, I'm intuitive, I'm an empath, and I'm a dreamer. These traits are what represent/help my business - I'm able to work and connect with almost anyone (even those tough MIL's love me!). My main priority is to make sure my clients have fun!

I fell in love with Tonhya and her work from our first collaboration, and since then she has become one of my go-to photographers for all of my weddings. The amazing photos speak for themselves, and she is a fantastic energy to be around on your wedding. Love love love!

Photographs are forever. A visual reminder of your love, the celebration of the day, and the people surrounding and supporting you in this beautiful union. These are the photos you will be showing your grandchildren, hanging on your wall, and showing off on social media for many anniversaries to come. Photos are timeless.

I have come to realize that the photos of your wedding is a huge part that you really want to invest in, and my husband and I wanted all the right moments captured not only for ourselves to look back on, but for our loved ones to appreciate as well. Those moments that you will have in your wedding (no matter how big or small, possibly due to covid) is something that you don’t want to miss because you might never get that opportunity again. Our photographer Nina was honestly a God sent. She went out of her way to capture the moments that mattered and was very personable and attentive to our needs during this whole experience. That shot that you want, you WILL get if you choose her. Nina helped us tell our wedding story almost poetically. The turn around time was quicker than I expected and I was able to share my beautiful pictures with my loved ones. Ninas professionalism was top tier and the service you get was exceptional, period. Bottom line, if you are in need of someone to capture memories and not just take photographs, stop looking, you found just found her!

We are passionate about photographing kind-hearted people who are unapologetically themselves, and creating a safe and beautiful space in the wedding world for LGBTQ+ folx. Our favorite people to work with believe in giving back to their communities, that black lives always matter, that climate change is you know...real, and choose to embrace their own unique quirks and talents.

Awarded Best of Zola
When you elope in the middle of a pandemic, it matters all the more that you love your photographer--since they'll be the only other person at your wedding. :) And in short, we couldn't be happier that ours was Shawnee. She has such a gift and a love for the work she does—and it shows. We knew she was the right person from the moment we met on Zoom--she is warm and kind, asked all the right questions, and instantly put us at ease. My partner and I eloped at the end of October 2020 in DC, just before the election. It was a whirlwind moment for so many reasons, especially as a queer couple. And it mattered to us that the person who captured those treasured memories, really understood what that moment meant to us. Everyone who sees our photos marvels at how wonderful they are—and no doubt we look great, but Shawnee’s warmth and direction and stellar eye really made all the difference. Vibing with your photographer matters—we’re so grateful to have found one with such grace and as much love for her art as Shawnee. <3

We are extremely happy that we selected the RedBrick Duo to play at our wedding. Jess and Damien were phenomenal. We spoke with them multiple times prior to the wedding to go over our song choices. They sent us multiple samples so we would have an idea of each song that will play at the wedding. At the ceremony our guests were in awe when Danielle walked down the aisle to Goo Goo Dolls "Iris". At our cocktail hour, many of our friends started to sing out loud the lyrics to the songs being played. It was one of our favorite moments of the wedding. They were also super friendly. We waited until the last minute to book them and could not be any more happy with their performance.

Above all, our design work focuses on the natural aspects and personalities of the materials we are using, we always aim to reflect and express what our flowers and stems would do in nature. Our work also reflects our values. We work hard and smart to never use floral foam, a toxic and carcinogenic material, compost and recycle all materials post wedding, and encourage our couples to donate their wedding flowers and support our friends at Bloom Again Brooklyn.

I've worked with Stems now for three years and with every wedding we are lucky to partner together on, Stems continues to impress. Not once have I seen the same design and the florals are unreal. Zara and her team really know how to cater to their clients style. They bring the fun, the color, the glamor to every wedding and I cannot wait to work with them again!

Meaghan and Evan photographed our Halloween wedding and we couldn't imagine having anyone else! We met Meaghan and Evan last October when they shot our engagement photos. They were more than willing to trudge through our favorite park and stop at all our favorite spots to get some beautiful photos we used for our save the date. We got to get to know them a little more over at our favorite little ramen restaurant after the session and of course we were instantly sold! Meaghan was super communicative and responded to every email I sent her pretty much right away every single time. As we got closer to the wedding day, she sent an incredibly detailed questionnaire. It covered everything from our most important shots to what weird family dynamics she should be conscious of; we sincerely appreciated this level of care, especially as a queer couple with some iffy family things. When I was hiring vendors, it was extremely important to me to find vendors who were queer/queer friendly and body positive, and Meaghan checked off both boxes in spades. My wife and I both have huge body insecurities and are deeply self-conscious of photos-but Meaghan made us both feel so beautiful. I was never even aware of the parts of myself I am usually hyper aware of because Meaghan and Evan both made us feel so comfortable. We were able to laugh and feel every emotion without once worrying about how we would look in the photos. On the day of, Meaghan kept us right on track without rushing us or making us feel stressed. We were definitely running behind at points but Meaghan handled it all with grace and helped me keep my head above water the whole time. They captured every moment in such a storybook way that we are able to talk about and remember every detail of the day based on the photos. This gallery is such a keepsake and such a special reminder of the best day of our lives. Its so heartwarming to look back and see how happy we and our guests look. And my wife and I both couldn’t have asked for more stunning photos of ourselves. We both look and feel so feminine, so whimsical, so magical. She captured our authentic selves, which is what makes her photos so unique and beautiful. I can't wait to order our prints and have these photos in our home forever! Thank you, Meaghan and Evan. There's so much more I could say but I'll leave off with, we are so grateful to have had you on our day. We love our photos so much. And we can't wait to have you do another shoot for us sometime in the near future! We cannot recommend you highly enough!

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.

I can't say enough good things about Meg. Not only was she just lovely to correspond with leading up to our engagement photos, but she did a PHENOMINAL job. She made us feel so comfortable and cute during our session, and her pictures came out AMAZING. She's the perfect photographer if you want natural, documentary style photographs that really just bring out your love and joy for each other. 10/10 would recommend!!

I'm a wedding & lifestyle photographer currently living in upstate New York and serving the greater tri-state area. I love photographing special moments between people and exploring new places, it's that simple. I'm also a huge yarn nerd, iced coffee addict and a lover of all things the color red. Let's connect - I'd love to hear from you!

Look no further! Claire is, by far, the most professional and reasonably priced wedding photographer in the Tristate Area. She was recommended to me by a very close friend who is also a wedding photographer. Claire started out as her assistant, but assistant she is no more! She is great at what she does and is extremely personable. We met for a drink and within 1min I knew she was who we would go with. She is calm, organized, friendly and good at her job! What more could you ask for? Besides our wedding coordinator, Claire was the one who made our wedding happen. Her timelines and schedule helped the day move along smoothly, she made sure we took great sunset beach pictures and (thankfully) convinced me to do a first look so we didn't completely miss our cocktail hour. We had 260 guests, most of them being family members, which would not be an easy task for anyone. Claire was professional and helpful and somehow it all worked out perfectly. The turnaround was very quick; we were able to make Christmas cards out of pictures she took less than 2 months before. We are still using her website to order prints (which come out beautifully btw) and will continue to do so! We are so thankful that this part of our wedding turned out as amazing as it did. Photos can make or break a day, and ours was a homerun!

I am a lifestyle photographer and i specialize in weddings. I love color, natural light, and love. I am drawn toward clients that like to let go and have fun! I love outside weddings and the more details the better. Your wedding day is so special and magical, the images from that day should be fine art and as unique as you are

Ina is a pleasure to work with. She is very calm, easy going and laid back during the day which puts everyone at ease on sometimes what can be a stressful day. She is creative with her shots and is able to find the best pose and angle for the couple which makes it easier for a videographer to shoot. She is very professional on the day of and is able to collaborate and work well as a team. She delivers beautiful photos. I would highly recommend her to our couples.

Laura is wonderful to work with! Laura's style of photography is what had originally drawn us to her; her ability to capture candid moments and how she always seems to get the perfect lighting! The photos she took completely captured the overall warm and loving vibe of our wedding. She must be some sort of magician... or just the best possible wedding photographer... Booking her was easy. She was easy to get in touch with and was always prompt to respond. I'm glad we booked her early to lock in our date. She is a very popular photographer and she books up fast! We met Laura before our wedding to go over the details of the venue and timeline of the night. She is a pro so she can make any venue, even the warehouse we booked, look bright and not dark and dingy. Day of, Laura came happy and ready to shoot. Our portraits with parents and the bridal party were not only beautiful, taken in a field, but also super fun! Laura knows how to make you feel good about yourself when she's shooting you! She was also making jokes which helped make us all comfortable. The ceremony and reception pictures were just breathtaking! She captured how funny our officiant was, our special "I do" moment and of course our first kiss as husband and wife! During our reception, we had circus performers lead the guests in hula hooping and juggling... Laura was able to get some amazing action shots on the fly! Overall, Laura is the absolute best. She was the perfect photographer for our special day and I cannot imagine having someone else in her place! She is so talented, sweet, punctual and professional; all things you want and need in a photographer! We love her and will be hiring her in the future for family portraits!

Hi! I'm Maria! I am a New York based fine-art wedding photographer that longs to capture real and authentic love anywhere and everywhere. I say Fine Art because I actually have a fine arts degree in photography. I am a happy wife who mar­ried her high-school sweetheart, an art book hoarder and slightly dog obsessed. I have loved photographing for as long as I can remember.

Working with Maria for our wedding was a really great experience. She worked within our budget and timeline, produced beautiful photos that matched my vision, and also was just a really kind person. She was communicative, I was always able to ask questions or get in touch with her as needed. Reliable, organized, and really a master of her art. Highly recommend booking her for your wedding or elopement!
