Angelica Radway Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Manhattan, NY

Hi. I’m Angelica and I’m a Brooklyn native, a momma, and gamer who has been into art since a child. I focus on capturing candid, wholehearted moments portraying your true personalities while always keeping the vibe relaxed and intimate. Your wedding is a unique and precious celebration of love. It should be fun for you and your guests. Just be yourself as I capture all the happy, emotional, romantic and quirky moments that make you and your partner who you are.

Awarded Best of Zola
Angelica captured our special day absolutely perfectly. We had hired her for our wedding that was supposed to happen in 2020 but had to be rescheduled for 3 years later due to the pandemic and through that entire time she stuck with us! She was communicative and responsive, and her shots were absolutely gorgeous. She managed to capture every single important moment of our celebration and the way she guides and corrals everyone into taking pictures that look good is nothing short of a miracle (trust me, I feel so awkward in front of the camera and I look incredible in all of my wedding shots.) If you need a photographer for your wedding, Angelica is 100% your girl.

Justin McCallum Photography

  • Starts at $5,200
  • Serves Manhattan, NY

Hi! I’m Justin (he/him) and I’m here to affirm your love, make you feel like a fucking rockstar, and dance like a total fool. Oh, and take so many gorgeous photos of y’all. Obvs. My style blends both documentary photojournalism and fine art photography: coaching folks who are shy in front of the camera, then stepping back to capture authentic moments uninterrupted. I’ve been lucky enough to have my work published by A Practical Wedding, The New York Times, GLAMOUR, People Magazine and many other fabulous outlets. I'm a stereotypical Capricorn that loves drag shows, campy horror films, every dog I meet, and Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups.

Awarded Best of Zola
Justin is a fantastic photographer, but more importantly, he's really fun to work with. He's expert at posing and making his subjects feel fantastic! I'm a fellow wedding photographer and have worked with him on numerous occasions; he also took my maternity photos when I was 41 weeks pregnant - and made me feel beautiful!

Millie Elangbam Photography

Hi, my name is Millie! I picked up a camera 11 years ago and I've been wholeheartedly devoted to this craft ever since. Through photography, I've come to understand that the meaningful connections I form with others hold a special significance for me and should be documented. My journey has naturally directed me toward wedding photography, enabling me to translate your love into art. To me, nothing compares to distilling love into photographs.

We are SO happy with our decision to work with Millie on our wedding. She was the best (and even more). Our photos are gorgeous, and we are so grateful for all of her amazing work leading up to and throughout our wedding weekend. Ahead of our wedding, Millie did a beautiful job on our engagement photos and then sent us the most beautiful photo care package with a gorgeous and thoughtful wedding planning book. As we got closer to our wedding, we felt relaxed because Millie had planned all of the details and made sure to know exactly what we wanted and desired for the big day (and then organized everything into a very detailed timeline). On our wedding, Millie was the perfect photographer, capturing every special moment and fitting in perfectly alongside our loved ones. I could go on and on. Millie is kind, professional and hardworking. She was always on time and met deadlines. I would recommend her to everyone for their photography needs. You won't be disappointed!

Creative Photojournalism & Cinematic Video by PSPi

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Manhattan, NY

We are a family owned and operated studio delivering Photography & Cinematic Video. What started with my father who opened our first studio in Brooklyn, New York in 1992, has evolved into a spectacular studio that captures moments candidly for you to share with friends and family. At PSPi we tell your wedding day story in a new style. A style that blends photo journalism with an unobtrusive cinematic approach. Bringing back that powerful and emotional experience to a product that is personal, unique, modern and artistic.

From the first phone call with Pavel, I knew we were going to have an amazing team. Pavel was so incredibly thorough and reassuring and helped create a perfect timeline for the day. The team, Eddy, Rob & Dave, were so charismatic and knowledgeable. They knew exactly what to do and what instructions to give my husband and I to create the most beautiful and intimate photos. We’re a little camera shy, so the fact they were able to direct us and make us feel comfortable shows their expertise. We are so beyond happy with our photos, full length video and highlight reels. Also - I have to say, the team is so great at capturing AMAZING candids during the party! There were times I didn’t even know they were behind me, and I am so happy to have all these moments captured. I did not feel like I had a camera in my face during the party at all! We had 3K AMAZING photos to look through, and EVERY photo is fantastic. I have also watched my highlight reel so many times, and I’ve already watched my full length film and plan on watching it again with my parents. I will seriously be recommending PSPI to everyone I know!! THANK YOU PSPI!!

We are a married couple of photographers. Within years of career, we discovered what’s really matters - we want to make people happy. Weddings have it all: new interesting people, touching stories, warm family relationships, tears. A lot of tears! Oh, don’t forget dances and sparklers! So, it’s fun! 🙂 Also, we love weddings because it’s the most challenging kind of photography in the field, it combines all the genres. It make you think, move and react quickly in constantly changing surrounding. We have no room for mistakes. So It’s never boring! 🙂

Awarded Best of Zola
We absolutely loved working with Tati and Roman!! We knew that we wanted to work with them immediately after our first conversation with Tati. Having two photographers was a key differentiator for us because we knew that it would allow us to capture all of the important moments from our wedding day. Tati and Roman are both so genuinely warm, kind, and very easy to work with. They were quick to respond to all of our questions leading up to our wedding and also helped us organize our day-of-timeline in a way that allowed us to get all of the photos that we wanted while also providing us with plenty of time to be present and have fun with friends and family. Tati and Roman made us and all of our friends and family feel comfortable when taking photos and provided guidance when needed to ensure that we got the perfect shots. We were blown away when we got our wedding photos and are so happy with how they turned out! Tati and Roman captured all of the beautiful and authentic moments from that night and you can feel the love that was in the room. We cannot thank Tati and Roman enough and are so happy that we were able to work with them.

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Manhattan, NY

After working 10+ years in corporate America in NYC, California and traveling the globe, I found myself wanting more than what the traditional career path had set for me. I stumbled into photography while I was on maternity leave with my oldest and started a side hustle that I had no idea was going to turn into a complete career change years later. From the very first wedding I shot, I knew I was onto something. And ever since then, I haven't looked back.

Awarded Best of Zola
Kim-Trang Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From the start, Kim’s communication style was ahead of the game - she was warm, friendly, and we were excited to have her on our team. Kim is talented and committed and truly captured the joy and intimacy of our special day. She connected with us and our family in a way that felt more like having a friend there than just a vendor. One of our favorite touches was the sweet Polaroids she left with our wedding cards - the perfect surprise when we were feeling a bit of the post-wedding blues. We couldn't be happier with the sneak peeks we've seen so far and can't wait to see the full gallery. Kim-Trang Photography went above and beyond to make our wedding day truly unforgettable.

I'm in love with human emotions, either it's laughing till it hurts or tears of happiness. When your man hugs you so strong, that you can't breathe or when your dad is crying (for the first time in his life!) listening to your vows at the altar. I do believe, that these un-staged moments are more meaningful than classy portraits on a sunset (but no worries, you'll plenty of both!) If you feel like we are on the same page - let's talk! Write me a few words about who you are, tell me your story and let's create something beautiful together!

Awarded Best of Zola
If you are reading this, go book Dasha! The wedding photographer was the most important vendor for us. After talking to many photographers, we ended up booking Dasha and that's the best decision we've ever made. Through our engagement session, we got so comfortable in front of her camera and the photos turned out great. Ahead of the wedding, I had a final meeting with Dasha and you could tell that she cares about her couples and gives good advice on the timeline. On the wedding day, her professionalism and creativity made the day so easy for us, and we didn't need to give her a long shortlist because we trusted her. When we received the full gallery, we were so BLOWN AWAY. The editing style speaks for itself. We also loved the way she documented our special - it feels very natural and authentic. Many of our families and friends asked us who our photographer was, and we cannot recommend Dasha enough. Thank you, Dasha!!

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Manhattan, NY

I found my love for photography in a high school dark room, and I have continued to follow that passion to find myself today working as a hybrid photographer in both Film and Digital. I strive not to just take pictures, but to capture candid emotions and capture them in a beautiful way. My photography is personal and intimate. My approach is a mixture of fine art and documentary, I try to capture your moments and day as it happened but highlighting the special details and taking advantage of the best lighting. As a lover of history I love capturing personal and family histories that surround weddings.

Awarded Best of Zola
Just a few minutes into our first conversation with Judson, we knew she was our wedding photographer. She was great to work with — very easy-going, fun and the utmost professional who has a fantastic eye and the patience of a saint for our ... always sort of "extra" family — and dog, Kona, who refused to cooperate with most pictures haha. My husband and I normally shy away from being in front of the camera, but with Judson's energy and personality, our discomfort quickly melted away, and we could just focus on having the best day of our lives. She even got us to dance atop one of the hills on Roosevelt Island, which ended up being some of our favorite pics! By the end of the night, it was like Judson had been part of our family forever. I know she'd be a great addition to your family and wedding, too. We cannot recommend her enough! She really listens to what you want and delivers the most beautiful memories.

With nearly two decades of experience capturing weddings, I've honed my craft into an art form. As a lifelong New Yorker, the city is my canvas. I’m not just a photographer; I’m your insider, offering expert recommendations to make your special day truly unforgettable. My passion for preserving love stories is the driving force behind every image I create.

When you book Susan, you book an entire team. I was so confident the whole night that photos were completely handled because Susan's team was ON TOP of it. Before I even thought about a shot, they were already taking it. It didn't feel cheesy and they were so fun to work with. Susan was very patient and kind with me too whenever we did pre-wedding calls and I was an utter mess trying to plan everything.

I'm just an 80's born, 90's raised millennial photographer who wants to shoot passionate couples and have his avocado toast too. My approach to photography is journalistic, directed not posed. My approach to a wedding day is calm, attentive, easy-going, non-intrusive without being awkwardly shy, and always with a smile.

I had the pleasure of working with Hector on one of my weddings (I'm a Day of Coordinator) and he was great day of! He came early so we can scout out a few locations for photos at the venue, was easy to talk too and my clients loved him! Not the mention the photos delivered were soooo beautiful! I would highly recommend Héctor Javier Foto to anyone getting married!

I would describe myself as a minimalist on the outside, Liberace on the inside. Obsessed with: dogs, dog-like cats, oysters, urban planning, and really excellent stand-up comedy. I'm originally from the majestic state of New Jersey, and live in the Ditmars section of Astoria, Queens. When I'm not photographing weddings, you can bet I'm either reading or writing fiction (currently working on a project set in Pennsylvania coal country, where my grandfather grew up), watching or rewatching great television

As my Instagram bio says, I'm a country girl by birth, a city girl by choice and a photographer by obsession. I grew up on a farm in a small Midwestern town, but have lived in New York City for over 25 years. As a photographer I say I'm self-taught, but in reality I've had the benefit of amazing mentors and teachers along the way who helped me elevate my work and pursue joy along with results. When not making photos or hanging out with my husband and kids, you can find me with a book in hand or listening to music while indulging my love of textiles at my sewing machine (yes, I really own a sewing machine)! Oh, or dancing! :-)

We loved having Amy photograph our wedding day! Her style of photography is completely different from traditional wedding photography. Amy's candid photography really captured the emotion of the day and we love the black and white prints! Amy worked so well with our other more traditional photographer. The shooting is so different that there was zero interference. We cherish our photos and highly recommend anyone getting married to consider hiring Amy to capture the day!

We are Roge and Fernando and we want you to know some things about us. We passionately and creatively document love stories. (It feels so cheesy when I see it written, but it’s true.) And we want you to understand that there are no second chances to get it right, and that we are obsessed with getting it right. This is your wedding, our work will tell your story forever, and we don’t take that lightly. At all.

My now wife and I got Married on October 7th 2016. We reviewed and interviewed several photographers before making our decision and chose Roge and Fernando because of their photographic style, professionalism and warm personalities. Roge and Fernando were hands down the very best vendors and people to work with before during and after the event. Prior to the wedding we we able to connect several times to discuss the timeline and all details leading up to the big day, they both always had great input and were immensely helpful leading up to the day. We could always count on Roge to help us iron out the details of the timeline and Fernando has an excellent eye for photography and was able to give us direction when choosing some of the spots to take photos in. We decided to do a first look and walk around prior to our wedding to get some shots of just us before heading to the venue. They were able to take so many amazing pictures during that time and we ended up event having a bit of time to relax before the ceremony, because we were 30 minutes ahead of schedule! The balance they create as a team is great because Roge is able to direct Fernando and manage his time to best capture more moments and Fernando creates these wonderful images. The final outcome of our photos was absolutely breath taking, we did not have a videographer and it was not necessary because Fernando was able to capture all if the emotion, movement and feeling of our wedding in every shot. The reception the photographs have so much energy that when scrolling thru our final photos we were able to re-live our wedding again! The mood, lighting, energy and feeling of our special day is captured in these images forever and I cannot thank them enough for going above and beyond for us. I would recommend them to anyone. I have so many friends, family and colleagues that have asked us about them. They are the very best people to work with! Thank you again! We will forever be grateful and in-love with our wedding photos.

I stay behind the camera because I'm more than a little introverted. That is, until I get to know people. Then I open up and we can talk about movies, music, dogs (I'm happy to show you pictures and videos of my rescue dog). I love what I do because I get to capture moments between you and the most important people in your life that you'll be able to relive for decades to come!

Casey photographed my wedding in 2008. We chose him because we really found his photography to be stylish and beautiful without being pricey or pretentious, and we found it in him. Of course we had a budget, but Casey worked with us every step of the way to make it work without pressure. He made eye contact when we spoke, took notes and was attentive and sensitive to every detail. I finally felt seen. I didn't feel like I was just another bride. In that moment; I was THE BRIDE. At the wedding he was a calming presence, as he and his assistant helped with details sometimes above and beyond his job description. When it came time to actually pose with some family members, he was patient and his comedic personality kept us all entertained through those "mandatory photos". The rest? Well it was on artistic auto-pilot from there, it was incredibly smooth. He is able to move around the room capturing the pure emotions that made your day, yours. I remember him being there of course, but I just remember having the best time of my life;not if I closed one eye or had lipstick on my teeth. Our photos were the simply the best photojournalism I had ever seen. My jaw dropped because I don't consider myself photogenic AT ALL (hello, double chin! Just why? EVERY pic from girl's night..really?) but there it was. I looked GOOD. Everyone did. Great light and texture...high-def LOVE. It was INCREDIBLY difficult to narrow down the pics we wanted to an amazing album that he retouched to perfection and arranged! So. In conclusion.... Stop. Looking. Further. You found him. Be Happy. And Congrats on one of the first of many smart decisions as you begin your new life together.

We worked with Jon for our civil wedding photos in Brooklyn Heights and couldn't be happier with the whole process. From the moment we got in touch with him for the first time until the handoff of all the photos, the experience was seamless. His extremely organised work methodology made everything smooth and easy. We spent two hours with him walking around Brooklyn Heights and DUMBO, and the result was a great variety of photos. Jon's got a special eye for lighting, composition and editing. On top of everything, his personality while working made it possible for us to act natural in front of the camera. 100% recommend working with him. It will be fun and the final edits will be memorable.

I'm Kari, and I'm obsessed with real emotions. I've been a photographer since 2007 and I still get all gooey inside when I see a couple laughing together, crying together, or living out dreams together. I only accept 12 wedding commissions a year so I can give each couple the attention you deserve. I'm based in New York, but I'm never opposed to traveling far and wide for a gorgeous wedding! Get in touch to see if I'm available for your wedding and to see if we're a good fit for each other!

Kari and Caleb were such a pleasure to work with! I cannot say enough good things about them. Personality-wise, they were a great presence to have around on our wedding day - fun, personable, professional, relaxed, and looking out for my husband and me the entire time. Photography-wise, I am even more impressed. Kari and Caleb expertly guided us through our first look and couples session before the wedding. They found amazing locations to shoot in, helped us pose, and kept track of the time to make sure we got where we needed to be. During the ceremony and reception, they were incredibly dynamic. When I saw the photos, I couldn't believe they were able to capture so much of the night from so many angles. The images are STUNNING. They are fun, unique, candid, expertly shot and edited, and I love them all so much. I would work with Kari and Caleb again in a heartbeat.
