Relive the moments as you experienced them. When it comes to your wedding, what are you most excited about? The ceremony? Dancing the night away with family and friends? Indulging in the emotion of the day? The photos are important so you can relive each memorable moment. But the moments are only memorable if you take the time to experience them in the first place. This way, you'll not only experience the moments of your wedding day - you'll remember them well. Who better to photograph your experiences than a husband and wife team who understands the importance of this day. And the moments that shape it.

Ishan and Preeti are incredible people and artists. So talented, creative, artistic, fun and affordable. No cheesy typical wedding photos here! Our pictures are one of a kind. For our engagement photos, Ishan and Preeti were willing to drive aroubd local towns and take photos at numerous locations that meant something special to us. They are so creative with light and texture and are daring to go anywhere. And then our wedding day..Oh My Goodness. I have never seen such beautiful photos. We got married in Montauk, NY and after our first look, we went out by the lighthouse and took photos over the bluffs. They are INCREDIBLE!!!!!!!!!! We got married at a yacht club and we had mentioned to Ishan how we would love a photo on a big yacht. He again rose to the occasion. We found friendly boat owners who let us board their yacht and Ishan got photos of us opening champagne and drone photos of us lying on the bow. He thinks on his feet and comes up with awesome photos in any circumstance. Ishan Fotografi really captured the highlights of the wedding perfectly. The photos were available by the time we were back from our honeymoon. We just received our album, which is not only breathtaking, but really tells the story of the wedding day.

Ashley Sara Photo is hands down the best choice you will ever make! She is not only the most incredibly talented photographer, but also the kindest soul. You will be in awe of her skills and want to be best friends with her all at the same time. She made our wedding day 1000x better and we had the best time exploring our venue with her while capturing the most beautiful memories. I look at my wedding pictures at least once per day because they are just that good. I am someone who hates photos of myself and does not enjoy being in front of a camera, and she somehow managed to give me literally hundreds of beautiful photos that I adore. She’s also a pretty awesome hype woman and will give you plenty of confidence boosts. We already have 1 year anniversary pictures scheduled with her and plan to use her for every other occasion we can because who doesn’t need more beautiful photos they love!? To sum this up, just hire her. I promise you will not regret it :)

Kelly Jean Photography

Poughkeepsie, NY
  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,800
  • Serves Minerva, NY

As a photographer, I want to capture your happiest moments and your greatest achievements. I absolutely love working with people and creating long-lasting relationships. Making people laugh and have fun is something that comes naturally to me. I want to create authentic moments, bring magic to adventures, and make beautiful memories that will last a lifetime. So, can I help you capture your story?

I had a very clear vision of what our wedding would look like, particularly from a photo point of view. And even under a constant cloud of rain, Kelly Jean captured our day better than I could have imagined. We were already blown away by the engagement shoot Kelly did for us back in December 2022, but our wedding day photos were the real prize. Our whole gallery stunningly represents the moody, romantic look that drew me to Kelly Jean’s photos in the first place. I thought the rain would ruin the outdoor wedding we’d dreamed of for the last year and a half. But Kelly Jean knew exactly how to turn the weather into something truly wonderful — and the rain became the most beautiful backdrop for our ceremony photos. On top of that, the weather didn’t stop Kelly from committing to every detail of our day. She was a total pro (geared up in rain boots and a rain jacket) through every part of the wedding and knew exactly how to shift away from sunny day photos to what worked for rainy weather. We are FOREVER grateful we found Kelly Jean and have all these stunning memories to hold onto for life. Her unique, artistic approach and attention to detail truly shines through every photo. We haven’t been able to stop looking through our gallery and reliving every special part of our day!

Arius Photography

Stone Ridge, NY
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,900
  • Serves Minerva, NY

I like to find beauty in the balance between the shadows and the light. They are rarely inseparable. They are complex and totally opposite and yet they can not live without the other. Just like real connection. What is real is beautiful. Only love is real. Your wedding day is important. To you. To your families. To me. And I don’t take it lightly. I understand that you’ve never done this before and you may not even know where to start! Don’t worry- I got you!

Finding a good photographer was high on our priority list for vendors. We got married outside in the Catskill Mountains and as such we wanted a photographer capable of capturing the depth of the forest. After looking through Sam's portfolio we knew she was good, but after working with her and seeing her work firsthand we can say she's the best. Getting your photo taken can be awkward, especially given the high stakes of a wedding. But Sam is able to make you feel immediately comfortable while simultaneously taking the most stunning photos you'll ever see. We also had a connection session with her, which we would highly recommend so that you can know how she works - very fun and relaxed, but professional. Sam helped us outline the entire day of the wedding, and based on her knowledge the day went off without a hitch. We're so grateful she agreed to work with us!

She was so receptive to my feedback and it was obvious she really cared about me feeling my best on my wedding day. I ended up changing my mind about my wedding day hairstyle after our trial, and without even a second trial, Mia was able to nail my vision day-of. She and Taylor took such good care of my bridal party — everyone was so happy with their hair and looked stunning! Thank you, Mia and team, for everything!

NSM DJs spin live mixes at your event, with seamless transitions and expert blends. We’ve worked to build a reputation around a style that is fun, classy and memorable. That’s how we roll.

We are so happy to have found DJ Anthony B from NonStop Music for our wedding this past June 17th and would highly recommend him to any future bride and groom (or for any event)! My now husband and I are musicians, so we spent a lot of time researching DJs and debating what kind of DJ we wanted. As soon as we had the first meeting with Anthony (after listening to hours of his remixes), we knew he was the one. He listened to every need and concern we had regarding wedding music and DJs in general, and flat-out blew us away with his talent. His musicianship truly shows in his ability to get all of the guests out on the dance floor, no matter their age. Our guests are still raving about how good the music was more than a week after our wedding and how they have never danced so much at a wedding before (including our wedding coordinator)! He was able to take the classic wedding songs and put a nice spin on them so that it kept the original sound, but also added something new and special. He also took our wide, eclectic style of music and remixed oldies and rock with tech house and pop. Thank you for the Zedd remix and for our first dance song rendition! DJ Anthony was just the right amount of involved with the crowd, coming out to dance with us a few times, but also not over-involved. He was extremely professional and created a great atmosphere for our special day! This was one of our hardest vendors to choose, but also our most rewarding choice. We are looking forward to hiring him again for the next big life event, and really appreciate all of the hard work he did for us before the wedding and during the most special day of our lives! Thank you DJ Anthony. You really made our wedding (sound) incredible! -The Claffeys 3

We love making wedding films that tell the story of your day in the most creative way possible. When people watch their films, we want them to be transported back to the way their wedding day felt.

Awarded Best of Zola
In 2018, I first found Hannah’s photography on Instagram (Ramble Free). This was even before I was engaged, and I thought to myself that I could only wish to have photos like that for my engagement and wedding. The lighting, the quality, the mood, and the way the photos were unstaged but perfect all at the same time really captivated me. Fast forward 2019 when I actually did get engaged, I saw she also was part of a videography company echo in dreams. To describe Hannah and Jess’s style is elegant, breathtaking, moody, dreamy, and so personalized. I couldn’t believe they were able to take me, a plain ol’ person, and make me feel like I was a model doing an editorial (but it was my own wedding in my parents backyard!) Through the video footage, they were really able to capture the overall feeling of my wedding day. The love, the happiness, the tears, the fun, and the subtle moments/emotions I would have lost had I not hired them. The way they edited the footage really told a story, and is something I will cherish forever and still can’t watch without crying. Not only was their work impeccable, they were amazing to work with. Their communication was effective, they were extremely organized and really laid out my options for me, and made sure to ask me what I wanted to personalize my experience. 10/10 would recommend and am so glad I chose them to work with.

Brooklyn, NY
  • Photographer

  • Serves Minerva, NY

I’ll try to keep this short: I’m a silly, introverted, rule breaker with a sincere whimsical streak. Originally from Iowa with a decent chunk of time spent bopping between Minneapolis and Oregon, I love weddings + photography (duh), my nephew, a stiff gin + tonic, propagating too many damn houseplants, and my cats. Last I checked I’m an INFP, Enneagram 4, and Capricorn which makes me quite the pragmatic daydreamer + observer: as unnecessarily prepared as a Boy Scout, curiously creative, and hella laid back, all of which uniquely prepares me for the ebb and flow of a wedding day.

Caitlin is a dream. From the time she arrived to the beginning moments of our wedding, Caitlin right away was comfortable with everyone. She brings an ease which allows people be calm and we honestly forgot she was there, snapping away. There were many moments where she would check in and make sure everyone was good, the energy was so sweet. We received our photos right when she said they would be done. The work Caitlin does captures the warmth, and light of a love event. My husband cried the first, second and third time we looked though the collection. We will treasure them forever. Highly, highly recommend her! 100%

Wedding photography that matters is about the people and the feelings of the wedding day. It's not about the poses that I might imagine or the pretty details that surround the day. My passion is in finding the beauty in the REAL moments of a wedding day and preserving those to not only remind you of that love but to share it with generations to come.

There are no words to describe how incredible Chris is. He was calm, creative, and a pleasure to work with. Truly one of our favorite vendors. We were floored when we got our pictures back. He captured everything beautifully and we hardly knew he was there! At the end of the night he gave us the kindest words and smiles. Do not even think twice about contacting him - he is the real deal and will make the process easy.

My name is Danielle Majka. Also called Danielle Love by my husband, hence the business name :) I am a wedding and portrait photographer based out of Port Saint Lucie in South Florida. I have always known that I wanted to pursue a career with some form of creativity. I graduated with a degree in graphic design in 2011 and began working as a graphic designer at a local sign shop. While I loved most of the job, I learned that I really wasn’t meant to sit behind a desk from 9-5. That’s when I started thinking about photography.

Danielle and her staff were absolutely phenomenal! She was super professional while still being playful!Everything is laid out and explained and her organization is a work of art! She has you fill out a questionnaire that allows you to list exactly what you want, who is in the pictures and what order! It made the day of run so smooth and painless! The pictures we received were perfect, elegant, and absolutely beautiful! She was able to capture the exact style of pictures we wanted! Would recommend 10/10 to anyone looking for the perfect photographer! Thank you again Danielle!! ️

Our passion for visual storytelling and photography began over 20 years ago when we started capturing incredible stories, weddings and life’s most important events behind our lens in a little town in Abruzzo Italy, and later on we expanded onto South Florida’s warm beaches and New York's charm.

I am a native New Yorker and have built a career over the past 26 years as a wedding and special event makeup artist. My first job as a makeup artist with the Laura Geller Makeup Studio catapulted my career. Under Laura’s extensive training and mentoring, I ascended the ranks to become one of her most-requested makeup artists for studio clientele, makeup lessons, weddings, and special events. In 2003 I formed my own makeup business, Anabelle LaGuardia Makeup Artistry to provide reliable on-location makeup concierge services to brides and clients in NYC, the Tri-State area, and destinations beyond.

I had the absolute pleasure of having Anabelle as my makeup artist for my wedding, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the results! From the beginning, Anabelle demonstrated exceptional professionalism and a genuine commitment to making my big day as special as possible. What stood out the most was Anabelle's attentive and considerate approach. She took the time to listen to my concerns and preferences, ensuring that my wedding makeup not only reflected my personal style but also made me feel like the best version of myself. Her advice on preparing my skin for the big day was invaluable, and it truly made a noticeable difference. Anabelle's talent in creating a look that was both natural and stunning is truly commendable. She worked her magic not only on me but also on my bridesmaids and my mom, ensuring that each of us felt confident and beautiful. Striking the perfect balance between natural elegance and a touch of glamour is an art, and Anabelle is undoubtedly a master at it. Communication with Anabelle was a breeze throughout the entire process. She was responsive, accommodating, and genuinely invested in understanding my vision. The makeup trial went exceptionally well, and it was evident that she took the time to tailor the look to my liking. I wholeheartedly recommend Anabelle to anyone in need of a talented and reliable makeup artist. Her skill, professionalism, and warm personality make her a joy to work with. I am beyond pleased with the results, and I wouldn't hesitate to choose her again for any future events.

While we craft our videos around the love you share, the fun you have when it's just the two of you as well as the celebration with your family and guests is what really makes each story so unique. So, as you'll notice in the examples above, no two wedding highlight videos are the same. We do our best to customize each wedding video we create to fit the couple we're working with as well as the flow of the wedding day, which will allow you to relive your day the way that it actually happened!

Gordon was so nice to work with! He also was always checking on me throughout the day. the photographers of course will lead the way throughout the day and Gordon made sure he was capturing more natural things. We received all our footage so quickly! Gordon also cares about giving the best product to his clients and that’s something I really appreciated about him. The product was amazing and so flawless.

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.

I cannot say enough good things about Keith and his work. In fact, I'm about two months late in posting this review because I've been spending so much time trying to ensure that it perfectly encapsulates how much we loved worked with Keith. This is my best shot (no photo pun intended), but know that my husband and I could go on for pages! We were SO lucky to be connected with Keith by my brother, a former college crew-mate, and even more fortunate that not only was Keith available for our wedding weekend but more than willing to travel out-of-state to photograph our big day. Of all of the vendors we worked with (and there were a lot, even though we ended up having a very small, COVID-conscious wedding), Keith made me feel the most comfortable and totally at ease from day one. He put a great deal of thought and time into his correspondence with me from the very first time I reached out (over a year before our wedding). He was extremely timely in his responses (and still is, even after the wedding!). Even virtually, I felt that we were able to develop a good relationship, which is so important with all of your vendors, but especially your photographer. Keith made every business transaction super easy and overall was just SO good to work with. In the weeks leading up to the wedding, Keith continued to demonstrate his patience and empathy as we endured many pandemic related changes. He did not add to that stress at all and his easy-going nature actually put me at ease just days before when I was trying to perfect a timeline for him. The day of the wedding was our first time meeting in person, but it felt like seeing an old friend. He was totally delightful to work with and made both my husband and I feel very comfortable in front of the camera, despite both of us being a little nervous about our modeling skills. Besides being an all-around great person - kind, quiet, thoughtful, intelligent, talented - Keith's photography is out-of-this world stunning. I mean, truly incredible! Monday morning after our wedding, we had tons of sneak peak photos and he delivered our complete album on our one-month anniversary (and remembered that it was our anniversary!) which was several weeks earlier than anticipated. He captured more emotion than I thought possible in EVERY SINGLE PHOTO. We can't stop looking at them, and neither can our friends and family. We cannot wait to book Keith again in the future. Don't hesitate - book Keith today. You won't regret it!

June of 2012. Just two months after my mom was critically injured and hospitalized. I began using my camera as an emotional outlet. I started taking portraits for family and friends, and eventually, photographed a courthouse wedding. As time went on, it hit me: These photos are freaking important! And I knew from personal experience that these moments, & the people in them, aren't going to be here forever. That camera became so much more than an outlet. It gave me purpose. And now I see my job as an act of service to you. I'm honored to use my talents and skills to deliver what really matters: TANGIBLE MEMORIES OF YOU & THE ONES YOU LOVE

This means your photos are tastefully enhanced and still match the moment. I primarily work with couples and my work ranges from engagements, weddings, family sessions and more. Things that inspire my me are historical architecture, stone, sunsets, and water. I have a calm and laid back personality, but I am genuinely passionate about serving my clients to ensure they receive the quality photos they deserve.

Emily, and her colleague Katie, were absolutely incredible to work with. From day one meeting via Zoom, she made me feel fully at ease and brought that same warm, but organized, energy to the actual wedding day. She got all of the shots we asked for - and then some! Throughout the day, she was gentle but firm in guiding us to stay on track with schedules (my family is notoriously horrible at this) and I'm just so appreciative I had her presence there on my special day. She even climbed through the woods to get some sunset photos of me atop a hill - a ridiculous demand of mine but she did it with a smile. I feel like I made a new friend in her! Thank you again, Emily and Katie, for the amazing captures you took - you did a wonderful job. 11/10, highly recommend!

I'm Alex. I spend my free time with my husband and our dogs Conor & Belle. I'm lucky to live in the Hudson Valley surrounded by amazing nature and upstate lifestyle. Art is something that I fell in love with at a young age and has always carried me through life- it lead me to photography. The mixture of art and emotion is one of the things I love most about wedding photography. When you look through your collection of photos I want you to feel and see the emotion, love and fun you had on your best day ever.

As a wedding florist, I've had the pleasure of working with some extremely talented and gifted photographers throughout the years and certainly have my favorites. Alex from White Poppy weddings is for sure one of them. She is kind, genuine, very easy to work with and I LOVE that she has an eye for not only only capturing the tender and important moments, but the beautiful details that tell the story of the day. I am always excited to work with Alex, whether it be a styled shoot or a wedding because I know the vibe of the day will be easygoing and fun and the photos are going to be GOOD!! I could not recommend this sweet, talented gal enough.

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

Kim and Mike photographed a wedding at our venue the first summer I managed the department at Jay Peak. Immediately, I added them to our Preferred Vendor List. After recently getting set up as a vendor on your site, I suggested Kim and Mike and do the same. All of my clients who choose to work with Kim and Mike end up sharing a bond with these two that is lasting. Love Wins' branding and message really conveys the style of work they inhabit. They're not a clock-in/clock-out vendor. The goal of their work is to connect with and get to know their clients and to celebrate the hard work and beauty of a relationship and a marriage. When we know they'll be on-site shooting a wedding, as coordinators, we know that we can rest a little easier with competent and caring photographers on site. We can rest assured that they'll be cognizant of the timelines we've built and that they'll utilize the many amazing places on-site to capture the beauty of our mountain! They work hard to nurture their professional relationships, both with fellow vendors and with couples, and it shows in the portfolios they've built over the years.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot say enough great things about Lindsay as our wedding photographer. She has such a talent for capturing emotion and truly telling the story of your wedding day through her photos. So many of her photos bring me right back to how I was feeling in those moments. She shoots a perfect blend of traditional portraits and the candid "in-between" memories. She captures details and moments that you never even realized she was there to catch. During the formal portraits she does a great job helping you feel comfortable and giving posing directions. However, I truly think she stands apart because of her ability to capture “real” moments and be discreet during parts of the day where she isn't explicitly giving direction, while still getting every aspect you could want (e.g. during the ceremony, dance floor, etc.). She has some angles of our ceremony that I still don’t know how she was able to capture them, we didn’t even notice she was right there! Her work truly speaks for itself. I am so very grateful that we chose her to photograph our wedding and that we have continued to work with her in the years since our wedding for our maternity, newborn and family photos. Lindsay has truly become a friend in the process of being our wedding photographer. I recommend her to all of my friends who are planning their weddings and I look forward to working with her in the future.

​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.

From stolen glances to cheeky kisses and getting loose on the dance floor, I'll be there to document your love story (and all the fun bits). I'll even make sure to snap authentic moments that may've slipped by unnoticed - they're the best ones! Whether you want me to inconspicuously lurk in the shadows, snapping candid shots or be right up the front, rounding everyone up for group photos, I'll be the chameleon you need on the day. Either way, I'll not miss a beat behind the lenses.

We had hired Nicole to come on a hike with us in Upstate, NY to photograph our engagement. Not only did she capture beautiful photos, but we had a fantastic time hiking with her and formed a relationship with her, which is a rare find when it comes to vendors! Despite it raining and being foggy, she was a trooper and the pictures turned out amazing - we think even better than if it was sunny! We love both her documentary-style photography and editing style. She really knows how to capture the moment without it being performative! We had so much fun and it didn't even feel like we were in a photoshoot. I was a bit anxious because I don't do well in front of the camera or know how to pose, but Nicole knew exactly how to make me feel comfortable! She was super friendly and professional. We would definitely work with her again, and are currently looking to hire her for our wedding!

Photography is genuinely my passion. My goal is to tell your love story and get to know you and document your special day.

Mary is amazing!! She captured our wedding day so perfectly. We had never had professional photos taken before and were a little nervous about being in front of the camera. Mary eased our worries and even offered an engagement shoot to get us comfortable with the process. Her ideas are amazing and every photo captures us so well. We will have her beautiful work hanging up in our home for many years to come. Choosing West and Spring Photography to be a part of our special day was one the best wedding decision we made!

I've photographed 100+ weddings and countless engagements during this wild ride of a career, that started about 10 years ago. Trust me, when I say, I have seen it all. From busting my best moves on the dance floor, getting that wild uncle away from the bar for family formals, to making sure you feel like the baddest B in the room..I've got you! Need help with a timeline, what to wear for your engagement session or what location is going to rock your world? I've got it under control.

Neither myself nor my husband are super comfortable in front of a camera. That said, Dani was AMAZING at making us feel relaxed the whole time. From the first minute of our engagement photo shoot to the last dance at our reception, we loved having Dani capture our relationship - awkward moments and all. Her photos are breathtaking and perfectly encapsulate our laughs, our emotions, and our love. We could not have asked for a better photographer for our wedding and I am so thrilled we chose Dani.

Whimsical & FUN cake studio!! Ca-truffles (cake truffles), cupcakes & cookies. Local pick up and delivery in Upstate NY / Hudson Valley. Shipping ca-truffles & cookies in the USA. Growing up, my father loved to bake and dreamed of one day owning his own bakery. We all loved his creations at family get togethers and I believe a general appreciation for food, and awesome desserts, was cultivated in me then… As well as a love for art & creating things that bring people joy!

The cake looked awesome and tasted wonderful! We got a sampler of cupcakes from Keira before our wedding and thought they were a little dry/cakey and didn’t pack a ton of flavor. We went with Piping Dreams though because we cared more about the look of the cake (awesome!) in the end the cake also tasted a lot better (moist, more flavor!) than in our samples. So I’d definitely recommend Keira and keep that in mind.

I want to cover your day in a way that highlights the joy and sincerity that surrounds you and the people you love. Some emotions are unbridled, but most are nuanced and fleeting. When you look back at your set of images, I want you to be transported back to that day and to have those feelings rekindled. My role is to be an observer and a listener. The less time I spend interrupting, the more time I can spend watching, waiting, and capturing the moments that should be remembered. If I’m there to record it, it’ll be without printed pages from other photographers you’d like to see imitated. I'll be there as me – and I’ll be capturing you.

Awarded Best of Zola
My search for a wedding photographer was pretty much a full time job. In fact, it was harder finding a wedding photographer than it was finding a man I wanted to marry. After spending hours and hours searching for the perfect wedding photographer, a google search found me Katie and I knew I had to work with her. From day 1 she was so easy to work with and was willing to work with me on my budget. I was extremely particular when it came to my photos and from the engagement photos to the wedding photos, she really hit it out of the park without me having to describe every little thing. The photos invoked the emotion/feeling I wanted from them and I particularly was wowed by her black and white photos. She clearly knows what she's doing and was able to work efficiently and work around a ton of sudden changes. I was a bundle of nerves on my wedding day and really valued her calm, peaceful demeanor. She truly has an extraordinary style and eye for photography and she's my #1 recommendation for brides looking for timeless wedding photos that transcend what's trending today. We've since worked with her for family photos and she wowed us once again. Honestly I'd have her photograph every momentous occasion of my life if I could. If you go through her portfolio you'll see all different styles of weddings but each photo is stunning. God forbid if I ever have another wedding, partnering with Katie is a no-brainer.
