My name is Annie - I am a lifestyle and wedding photographer based out of Rhode Island. I live in the smallest town, in the smallest state with my extra large dog, Kingston. I document life’s big and little moments. Creating images that make you feel like you could step into them. I want to create a beautiful and timeless collection of images to forever memorialize your day. When you look back through these photos, I want you to be transported back to that moment as if you're right there doing it all over again.

Awarded Best of Zola
I don't know even where to begin - Annie was everything we dreamed of for our wedding weekend and more. From the moment we connected with her, she was professional, kind, and made the entire process feel effortless. Not only did she exceed our expectations, but she went above and beyond, bringing warmth and personality to every moment. It felt like we were working with a friend, not just a vendor. We hired Annie for both our Welcome Reception and Wedding Day, and it was one of the best decisions we made. Leading up to the weekend, she was always responsive, answering every question with thoughtful suggestions that left us feeling confident and stress-free. On the day of, she handled everything so seamlessly, especially when it came to my (now!) husband, who isn't a fan of taking photos. She made him—and everyone—feel completely comfortable, turning the process into something fun and enjoyable. Annie’s ability to capture candid, genuine moments while keeping things lighthearted is truly a gift. While we’re still waiting on our final photos, her work is nothing short of magical. She perfectly captured the emotions and atmosphere of the day, and we can’t wait to relive it through her lens. If I had to do this all over again, without a doubt, Annie would be the very first vendor I would hire. She brought not just her skill, but her heart to our special day, and we can’t thank her enough for everything she did. Her presence added an extra layer of joy to our weekend, and we are so lucky to have had her as a part of it! To anyone considering working with Annie—do it!!! She is truly the best, and I cannot recommend her enough. Thank you, Annie, for being such a huge part of making our wedding weekend as special and memorable as it was. We are forever grateful!

  • Serves Merrick, NY for additional fees

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. We can't recommend Julia enough!!

To start, I'm obsessed with memories! I am a mother of two wonderful kids and the wife of the most amazing, supportive man. Photography has been such a big part of my life the last twelve years and I can't thank my clients enough for allowing me to capture their special moments. I believe in capturing moments as they happen. My style is clean and natural and there's always those black and white moments that I can't live without! I love having a vision and seeing it realized through a photograph. Also, I love to travel!

My husband and I cannot recommend Amy enough!! Not only did she make our wedding so incredible special, memorable, and fun, but she was so impeccably organized and efficient — I can't imagine there are any other photographers who know the ins and outs of The Banks on the level that she does. We couldn't be happier with the photos and everything from the locations to the lighting was perfect! Not only is Amy at the top of her professional game, but she's just a lovely person — super responsive, detail-oriented, sweet, and supportive. We loved working with her so much and she made our day so stress free! If you're getting married there's no better photographer than Amy!! You will not be disappointed xo

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!

Zarnab Virk Photography

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Merrick, NY for additional fees

Specializing in editorial portraits and fine art photography, I strive to convey the essence of human experiences, evoking genuine emotions and telling captivating stories with a unique artistic style. Combining my background in psychology and photography, I strive to connect with my subjects and capture their authentic emotions. It is my mission to create photographs that tell stories and resonate with viewers, evoking a sense of nostalgia, wonder, and inspiration.

I previously worked with Zarnab as a second shooter at a wedding. As an experienced photographer myself, I know that it's not just about clicking pictures; it's about weaving narratives, immortalizing emotions, and encapsulating love in its purest form. Through a blend of skillful photography and subtle direction, we were together able to document the essence of the couple's relationship in its purest form. However, post-production was where the magic truly unfolded. With meticulous attention to detail, Zarnab enhanced each image, preserving the authenticity of the moment while elevating its visual impact. The final gallery was a testament to the couple's love story—raw, genuine, and utterly captivating. Working with Zarnab was an absolute pleasure, and I'm grateful to have played a part in capturing such beautiful moments together.

I’m a husband to my high school sweetheart, I’m a dad to three gorgeous little girls, and I love my city of Costa Mesa, CA. Me in a nutshell...good coffee, bacon, and whiskey are my jam. A perfect day off consists of a mountain bike ride, some tacos, and swimming in our pool with my wife and daughters. I spent over 8 years in jobs that sucked the life out of me, but now I have one that breathes life back into me. You see, photography is not my identity…but it's definitely an extension of how I was created to see life. And I got into capturing meaningful moments because I am all about the life behind the moment, not just the event.

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?

So many times when I present a collection of images to a couple they'll find themselves overwhelmed with emotion. I've thought a lot about this and believe it's because so much happens so fast on a wedding day that your mind can only process a certain amount in the moment. When you see those authentic images that tell your story all of the information that your mind stored during your wedding is released. It's amazing how powerful images are. I am grateful to be able to give my couples photos that they'll treasure for life.

We are Danny and Ryan, a husband and wife photo and wife team! Our goal is to capture memories that you can feel. We want you to be able to relive your day in an authentic way. We have photographed and filmed over 20 weddings in the past year and hope we can add yours to the list :)

Ryan and Danny are a fantastic team. I reached out to Ryan, and she has been wonderful to work with. She was on top of communication and scheduling. We met to take pictures, and they spent the time helping us pose since we are not natural in front of the camera. The pictures came out beautifully and we fell in love with every image they captured. We will definitely be using them again!! Thank you again for the fantastic photographs, Ryan and Danny!

Cristina is too wonderful for words! She is an absolute joy to work with and her photos are beyond stunning. Neither my husband nor I have any idea what we’re doing in front of a camera, and Cristina could not have been kinder or more patient with us during both our engagement photos and wedding day. We brought along our dog for our engagement photos, and Cristina never batted an eye during his less-than-cooperative moments. She made the engagement photo session a complete breeze and so much fun from start to finish. Her partner, Constantin, joined for the wedding day, and they made the most incredible photography duo. They captured all the important moments and ensured that we got every last photo we wanted. They also handled corralling everyone for large family photos in an extremely timely and orderly fashion. They’re both so lovely, fun to work with, and take the most incredibly beautiful photos! I could not recommend Cristina (and Constantin!) more highly.

  • Serves Merrick, NY for additional fees

I'm Sarah! I've been a wedding photographer for 10 years now and I love my job so so much! I have a BFA in Photography from Mass College of Art and Design and have been working in photography ever since I got it! I also do sessions for families, seniors, headshots, food, and music.

From the moment we booked Sarah Gates Photography, we knew we were in good hands. Sarah's communication style was understanding, clear, and prompt throughout the entire process. She demonstrated a dedication to her craft that was evident in the quality of her work. Sarah was diligent and professional, staying on track to capture all the important moments of our special day. She helped us feel comfortable and confident during our engagement and wedding photo sessions, continuously hyping me up and capturing so many beautiful memories. Sarah is extremely kind and easy to get along with, which was a huge help in keeping me calm during the more stressful parts of the wedding day. We could not be happier with the value Sarah provided and would highly recommend her services to any couple looking for a talented, personable photographer to document their big day.

I'm known for creating experiences that are fun, laid back, and authentic. I have an immense love for adventure and an eye for capturing raw, organic, in-the-moment feelings for families, small weddings, elopements, boudoir, and adventurous couples. I know I am not for everyone but if you find that I don't meet who you are seeking, I don't take offense. It's completely understandable. I wouldn't mind pointing you in the right direction either 😊 .

My husband and I cannot recommend Brey enough! She is professional, charismatic, and an absolute pleasure to work with. Brey showed up to our venue on our wedding day in April 2022 and immediately started doing what she does best: creating magic with her camera! If you need someone who will get the job done, with a little spice (well, a lot of spice actually), then Brey is the photographer for you.

Moira was the best photographer we could have hoped for! Not only was she flexible in the ever changing craziness of the day, but she made it so fun! We laughed pretty much the whole day through and it literally felt like we were working with a friend. On top of all that, the photos that we’ve received so far are absolutely amazing! She really captured the best parts of the entire day.

Stacie is a delight as a person, in her craft, and in the way she conducts her business and services.

Our photos come out beautifully every. single. time. we have used her services and the entire experience is always worth it 1000%. She is thoughtful, detailed, and fun.

Kathleen Baker Photography

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $8,997
  • Serves Merrick, NY for additional fees

I like to think of myself as a lil bit southern, lil bit punk, and a whole lotta rock-n-roll. I’m a PBR lover, hardcore show corner dweller, disco ball queen. You’re going to hear me say, “hell yeah, brother” more than twice, Dale Earnhardt is an icon, and Dolly Parton is royalty. You'll love me if you're a little trashy, always classy, badass, sometimes chic, forever romantic. Unwedding, editorial, nontraditional, offbeat, colorful, joyful, film-inspired, and disco vibes always. If you like, I'll wear a rainbow suit, I'll definitely dance with your mom, and I will always be a champion for you and your lover.

Kathleen is not only an incredible artist but an incredible person. She is incredibly thoughtful and has an amazing eye for documenting her couples in a unique and creative perspective. Kathleen is a delight to work with and her couples absolutely love her. Not only for the art she creates, but her couples know they will have the best time working with her. Kathleen makes you feel like an instant friend, and it's because you are! I absolutely recommend Kathleen.

When I went to college I knew I wanted to have a career that allowed me to work with people and so I studied Social Work and Psychology! Photography was a hobby but when my friend found her self with no photographer days before her wedding, she asked if I could shoot her day and from the first wedding I was hooked! 11 years later and I think I have the best job on the planet. I have been married to the love of my life Jordan for 6 years now and she is the extra magic in Swiger Photography. We have a lil rescue pup named Furgie and spend our free time trying new bourbons and exploring Philadelphia!

Swiger Photography was the only vendor we didn’t have to think about. Having previously worked with Amanda during a mini-session we knew right away that we had to book her. We felt comfortable with her posing, free to be ourselves and completely respected. Nothing was ever pushed on us to try to “up sell” and we never felt we were getting handled or ignored. We’re really lucky to have had Amanda and her team there to celebrate with us on our wedding day and are crazy lucky to now call them friends. We love Swiger Photography!
