Wild Elegance 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Meridale, NY

Hello hello! My name is Marie and I am the owner and photographer for Wild Elegance. We are a brand for adventurers, for lovers of life, and genuine people who love those little moments between the moments in life and seek out truth over perfection. Your marriage is unique because of the relationships you have with the people you choose to celebrate with. Spending my day with you and your closest family and friends brings me such joy, and creating art out of some of the best moments of your life is something I am truly honored to be a part of for so many.

Knowing how much of a financial investment a wedding photographer was going to be, I did not take my decision lightly. I reached out to several companies and had several questions when determining who would be the right fit. And I have to say, Marie was by far the most understanding and compassionate during that process. While many photographers seemed annoyed by the (many) questions I would ask before booking, Marie was patient and very thoughtful with her responses -- she even took time to arrange a phone call with me while traveling! And during that phone call, she made sure I didn't feel rushed and that she answered all questions I had fully, it truly felt like I was talking to a friend. That was when I made the decision to book with Marie. Beyond that, when booking the session for our Engagement photos, she brought several creative and adventurous ideas to the table and had the PERFECT locations to take us to. We had a blast together. I would recommend Marie to anyone looking for a photographer who is friendly, compassionate, accommodating and just a joy to be around.

We primarily work with weddings, but we have also worked at family barbeques, coming-of-age ceremonies, anniversaries, birthdays, and corporate events.

Having Mixer Sisters bartend our wedding was one of our best decisions regarding planning our day. In the weeks and days leading up to our event, they were always available when we needed suggestions and responded to our requests almost immediately. The owners of Mixer Sisters developed unique recipes for our signature drinks and were attentive to our guests' requests on our wedding day. I recommend Mixer Sisters to bartend any event as they will help to make your day unforgettable.

Kate Elaine Photo 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Meridale, NY

Hello! My name is Katie, and I am the wine-loving, adventure-seeking, memory-making human behind the camera. I am passionate about supporting small and/or local businesses, especially when I travel. You can usually find me trying out a new brewery or restaurant or exploring a different trail leading to some new view!

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring Katie for our wedding photos was our best decision! We would hire her again in a heartbeat. For the entire year-and-a-half that my fiancé (now husband) were engaged, Katie met with us periodically on the phone to check in about specific topics such as scheduling or a family photos “shoot list”. We got our initial response within a couple days of sending our inquiry, then met on Zoom that week to meet her. She asked about our relationship, our personalities, etc. to get to know us, which was great and made everything more personal. It was easy to book a second shooter through Katie to get more photos, since she will find and contact another professional photographer for you, which is a step out of the way while you’re busy wedding planning! Our wedding day/photos being taken: What we loved about Katie is that her photography style is that her photos don’t feel awkward or too posed, and they feel more journalistic. There will of course be lots of formal portraits of the couple and wedding party, but Katie does an amazing job to get genuine smiles and laughs out of everyone. She is super funny, kind, and down-to-earth. Katie got along great with the wedding party and made everyone feel a lot more relaxed on our wedding day. Photographers are such an important part of the wedding day and keep the day going smoothly and on-time, and Katie did an exceptional job. Our edited photos: My husband and I were in LOVE with our edited photos from both our wedding and our engagement photoshoot. I am usually not the biggest fan of photos of myself, but when I looked through our wedding photos, I loved every single one. We immediately put together photo albums for our parents and had such a hard time picking our favorites! We would put all 1000+ photos in there if we could. I still look at these photos almost daily, and can’t wait to have nicely framed ones in our house. Professionalism: Lastly Katie was extremely professional. She wrote a contract, kept notes of everything so that nothing was forgotten, and was always on time or early for everything. You could tell she really cares about every single client, and puts the work into getting to know each couple far in advance before their wedding day. Altogether we would definitely recommend any engaged couple to hire Kate Elaine for wedding photos. We rate her 100/10 and could not have picked a better photographer!

We worked with Jon for our civil wedding photos in Brooklyn Heights and couldn't be happier with the whole process.

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.

I was voted Friendliest in high school (very proud of that fact), and I genuinely love what I do. I cry at every wedding, and I usually cry again when I'm editing your photos. I used to be an actor on Broadway and TV, and I think that makes me a stickler for making sure your photos are authentic and believable. (And I will help you get there!) I'm married to a wonderful man, so I've been through the wedding planning from the other side (ahh!), and we have an adorable little dog. :)

David is an absolute gem! For two people who hate having their pictures taken, my husband and I had a blast working with David. He makes the whole process so fun and exciting.

I proudly serve all gender identities, sexualities, races, cultures, religions, bodies, and abilities. Your love is welcome here! I am truly honored to capture your special day and celebrate with you the beginning of this new chapter in your lives. I love capturing their couples connection and the genuine connections with their family and friends. I love hearing about your story - from dating to proposal and everything in-between!

Erika was incredible!! From the moment I reached out, she was quick with her responses and made the contracting process as simple as possible, by providing questionnaires and detailed information to make sure that everything was aligned. The package that my partner and I chose, also included an engagement shoot, which gave us an opportunity to not only witness the way that she works, but to be able to experience her incredibly kind spirit. During the engagement shoot, my partner and I had felt the most comfortable in front of the camera because of Erika's encouragement and guidance throughout. This further solidified our decision to choose Erika as our wedding photographer. The pics from our engagement shoot were spectacular! The edits were nicely done and even though I'm generally critical of how I look in pictures, she made sure to bring out the best of me and my partner! Erika remained in constant contact with me leading up to the wedding, which gave me so much peace of mind. On the day of the wedding, Erika was prompt and brought such a calmness, that one could only want on their wedding day. She made sure to capture the pics from the shot list that I provided her and she was able to capture so much more! We just received a sneak peek from our wedding photos that she sent within a week and OMG the pics are stunning!! I actually teared up when looking at them because she perfectly captured the beauty and love from that day! My husband and I are overjoyed with the pics and can't wait for the final edits of the remaining pictures. I would recommend Erika to anyone for the simple fact that she knows what she's doing and it is evident!! I'm looking forward to other events that we will be able to utilize her services because she was just that amazing!

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.

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!

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!

Working with Tonhya was so much fun! She has a clear artistic vision and instantly understood the mood we wanted to capture. Beyond being great to work with, she’s just a wonderful person—chill, easygoing, and so easy to work with. We can't wait to come back to her for any future photo opportunities.

Our experience with Gabby from the beginning was fantastic! I don't think I'd ever recommend anyone else! So when she asked me today if I could leave a review I was shocked I hadn't already!!!! To start with...Communication with her was always informative and detailed. She actually did our wedding back in January and Our wedding was one of the unlucky ones impacted by COVID so when we were scrambling to get our plans together in preparation for postponements and downsizing gabby was the sweetest and the easiest to talk to. She was very understanding with our situation since we're both frontline workers and even went as far as to get tested twice before our small backyard ceremony. The photos are beyond beautiful... we're so happy we chose Gabby for our mini ceremony and our part 2 in 2022!!!

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

Stems Brooklyn specializes in garden style designs that feel natural, organic, and textural. We like to play with color and experiment with funky materials and unexpected combinations. 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!

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!

Claire was amazing!! She is so sweet and personable, right from the very first email exchange. Her rates are very reasonable and transparent, and she even helped us customize a package that worked best for our wedding. We had two pre-wedding sessions to go over the details, list of photos needed, and all the logistics, and she was very accessible via email throughout the process. She emailed me two days before the wedding letting me know that she had scoped out the venue and the surrounding area to find good photo spots, which made the day of so much smoother. We did our formal photos before the ceremony, and she corralled the family and wedding party professionally and kindly. She kept our spirits up and she wasted no time. Her assistant was also very professional and friendly, and they collaborated so well to get maximum photos at every angle. Claire made sure we had plenty of time for just the grooms, various locations and poses, and we got to have fun and create some really unique shots! During the ceremony I didn't even register that she was in the room, and yet we have beautiful photos of the entire thing, so she did a great job of staying out of the way while also getting all of the important shots! Throughout the cocktail hour and reception Claire and her assistant split off to maximize coverage, but I felt that one of them was always close by for a good shot. They also pulled us to the balcony to catch some beautiful shots at sunset, and those were absolutely worth it! Throughout the evening, if I found myself dancing or talking with someone I hadn't gotten a picture with yet, I could easily gesture or call to them to get our picture, and they also got plenty of other action shots. We received a "sneak peek" of about 50 photos within 24 hours of our event, and the full set of photos within 2 months. She gave us the time we needed to finalize our photo album, and had it published very quickly. We are so glad we chose Claire, she captured our day perfectly and was such a pleasure to work with.

We hired Michelle to design our wedding flowers this past Fall. She did an amazing job! From her first email to the second I saw my bouquet, she was kind, full of creative ideas, and right on our budget. She designed the most beautiful flowers for us that I've ever seen! Everything was perfect. I still get teary eyed thinking about my bouquet and the amazing chuppah. My favorite thing about her is that her studio only books one wedding a weekend. Some florists I was talking to said they do up to 5 in one day! That's crazy. I felt secure knowing that my wedding was the only one that her and her amazing staff were working on. Her attention to detail definitely showed! Hire her, you won't be disappointed.

Hi! I grew up in NY and came to Milwaukee 8 years ago - you could say it was for love. We have settled in and embraced our new community. I have been so lucky to always have working with people at the forefront of everything I do. From teaching to non profit work, photography allows me to do all of those things. I LOVE being outside and exploring new places. We live on the shores of Lake Michigan and visit the beach regularly year round. When I am not frolicking and photographing amazing people, I am usually spending time with my nutty little family outside.

Chelsea is an absolute dream! She has an incredible eye and captures the big moments, but also the intimate and special moments throughout the day. Her photos are stunning and so so special, as she really gets to know you and your family. Chelsea will find the beauty in and celebrate what is special about/unique to you as a couple, and the results show that. She is so kind, easy and fun to work with, and was a real support throughout our whole planning process. Especially since we got married during the pandemic we had a lot of questions and unique hoops to jump through. Chelsea was always willing to talk through details (even those not photo-related!), share suggestions, etc. throughout our planning process. The day of Chelsea was a joy to have around and her positive energy and willingness to do whatever it took for the perfect shot (including walking backwards for several blocks during our mariachi band parade through the streets) is unmatched. I recommend Chelsea Matson Photography to any and everyone- you will not be disappointed!

I had the pleasure of listening to Travis and Kareem play the Steel pan at 2 weddings I was working at. They both played a variety of genres like Reggae, Soca, Afro beats, Hip Hop/R&B, and Pop. I was so surprised at how many popular songs they knew how to play. The pan also gave an extra special touch to my clients' weddings that made them unforgettable. All of the guests were up dancing during their whole performance.

I’m a New York raised / Alaska braised 5’0″ multi-passionate, photographer and filmmaker – I can appreciate the grit of a city, but I also have a small-town heart. I’m layers of hard work, deep empathy, and a Roseanne cackle-laugh. I’m all about having my cake, eating it too, and sharing some with you. I believe in celebrating family & friends, NY pizza, actin’ a fool, editing my photos to candid perfection (mostly this), and skipping the small talk.

Before we booked Megan for our wedding, we were on the fence about a videographer. We set up a call and after talking to Megan for almost an hour she truly understood our vision for our wedding and it was a no brainer that we needed to work with her. Megan was such a pleasure to work with and her creative energy and empath nature shined through. Megan was a strong communicator throughout the process of planning our wedding and the day of. And, our wedding video came out AMAZING! If you want someone to perfectly capture the emotion and energy of your wedding day for you to re-watch for years to come - Megan is your girl!!

​I began photography in early 2015 by offering a few free sessions. Soon my business grew and I was booking numerous family and children photography sessions each month. In the summer of 2015 I began photographing weddings by offering to photograph a wedding for free and now I have seen my business grow from a few weddings a year to being fully booked with weddings nearly every weekend! In 2019 I decided to turn something I was passionate about into my full-time job. Many of my weddings are booked through "word of mouth" from some of my amazing clients! I am located in Rotterdam, NY and I travel in NY, VT, and MA for weddings.

Melanie with Always in Focus Photography was a joy to work with for our wedding day. Her communication style is very prompt, responding to emails and calls quickly, which was much appreciated during the hectic wedding planning process. Melanie takes her time with each shot, is very patient, and comes up with lots of creative ideas to capture the perfect moments. On our wedding day, she was amazing - capturing every important shot while never getting in the way of the event. The turnaround time for receiving our final edited photos after the wedding was faster than expected. Overall, Melanie is a talented, thoughtful photographer who helps document all the special moments of your wedding day. We'd highly recommend Always in Focus Photography to any engaged couple looking for a photographer who prioritizes communication and delivers beautiful, creative work.
