I’m Kristin aka Kal... I live in a beautiful but hard to identify area just north of the Catskills and south of Albany, east of Oneonta and Cooperstown. It’s close to where I grew up and where my family lives in the Catskills. I love EVERYTHING about a wedding day; the anticipation, the joy, the laughter, the happy tears, and the simple fact that everyone you know is gathered to celebrate with you. I have had the honor of celebrating with so many couples and friends and family and it gives me so much joy. I want you to have the BEST day!! So tell me about your loves, your plans, and let’s start telling your story!

Awarded Best of Zola
Kristin was AMAZING! Our wedding pictures came out absolutely stunning, I’m obsessed with them, and the photos are even more beautiful than I could have ever imagined. Kristin is also so friendly, kind, and is great with her communication. The pictures are just amazing. Before working with Kristin, my husband and I were definitely camera shy, but she made us feel so comfortable during our engagement shoot that we felt ready for the wedding. I highly recommend Kristin!

Hi, I’m Bridget — but you can call me Bee, cause that’s what my friends call me! And since we’re basically already best friends, let me tell you a secret: taking pictures isn’t even the thing I love most about my job. Now, don’t get me wrong, I’m as obsessed with taking gorgeous, dripping-in-light photos that you’ll look back on for ages as much as the next photographer. But what I really love? Meeting the most kind-hearted people and getting to know them on a level much deeper than the typical client-photographer relationship.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment we hired Bridget, we knew we were in great hands. She was not just a photographer, but a true partner throughout the entire wedding planning process. Her support was invaluable as she helped guide us through timelines and offered advice on how to make our day even more special. From our engagement photos to our wedding day, she truly went above and beyond. She was not only an incredible photographer but also the ultimate hype girl—cheering us on, keeping us calm, and making sure every moment was captured beautifully. Her attention to detail was incredible; no special moment was missed, and she seamlessly blended candid shots with stunning portraits. When we received our photos, we were absolutely blown away! Each image was more beautiful than we could have imagined—emotions, laughter, and love were all perfectly captured. The photos felt like a reflection of our story, and we’ll cherish them forever. Thank you, Bridget, for making our wedding day unforgettable and for giving us memories that will last a lifetime! We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer.

I’m a wedding and portrait photographer located in Hudson Valley, New York. On a typical day, you can find me with a cup of coffee in my hands enjoying time outside with my family. I enjoy the simple pleasures of life and believe that so much of life is worth capturing on camera!

It will be hard to top the beautiful words written in Liz’s blog regarding our wedding! She is so creative and even cited all of our vendors. Go check it out! Liz went above and beyond capturing our big day. We had two meetings with her in the months leading up to the wedding with open communication between, making it so easy to plan. On the day of she was flexible with timeline changes and a comfort to be around. She made posing feel natural and captured so many details that may otherwise be forgotten or overlooked. Liz captured all of the shots that we wanted and was efficient enough to give us time to spend with our guests. Ten out of five stars and we will definitely use Liz for our important life events going forward. With love, Nikolas and Meaghen

  • Serves Rensselaer, NY

After nearly a dozen years of photographing feature stories, covers, and events for a statewide labor union, I found a passion for capturing beautiful moments for families and couples in a candid, photo-journalistic style. In June of 2021, I had the immense privilege of photographing twenty-four weddings - and an engagement! - for Beekman 1802's "Let Love Bloom" wedding marathon in Sharon Springs, NY, and fell in love with wedding photography. It's an honor to document a couple's love story - each one completely different than the last.

We are soo lucky to have connected with Becky for our wedding photography. As a couple on a budget with no experience in front of a camera, Becky made it easy to feel natural and delivered beyond what we could have imagined. Becky was by far our favorite vendor to work with. She's totally responsive, cool, and has a great approach to capturing authentic, beautiful photos. Our engagement session was so fantastic, and our wedding album has totally blown us away- every time I look I find another wonderful moment captured. It's hard to narrow down a few good examples since there are literally hundreds of gems! Guests commented how kind Becky was and anybody who has seen our engagement or wedding photos agree they are gorgeous. We've already had three couples ask for us to pass along her contact info! Thank you so much Becky for giving us memories that will last a lifetime and beyond! :) It wouldn't have been the same without you.

Always in Focus Photography

  • Serves Rensselaer, NY

​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.

Toni Walley Photography

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Rensselaer, NY

I grew up and reside in upstate NY. I always had a love for capturing life in its natural state, and turning those moments into memories that can be looked back on for many generations. I love to travel and shoot a variety of life’s experiences, especially elopements and micro weddings. I've been featured in many magazines over the years and specifically have been on the cover of several bridal magazines in the last two years.

My husband & I are not huge fans of getting photos taken. We both are pretty awkward with PDA and were nervous about this for our big day. I felt a bit stressed since I didn’t have anything prepared in my mind for our photography either. As soon as Toni arrived on site, all my worries disappeared! I could just feel her kind energy radiating as soon as she came into the room. She found her way to the bridal suite and immediately started her magic. Our favorite part about Toni was how she fit in naturally. It never felt awkward or rushed, and she made sure we were enjoying every moment. Our entire family loved her and everyone kept saying how great she did. She really prioritized family photos and helped make sure we got everyone in them. Definitely recommend booking Toni for your day. She really is the best and I’m so happy that I found a photographer that I will use for any big life event moving forward!!!

Hi I'm Hannah and I'm from tiny fishing village in Cornwall, England but moved here to North Carolina in 2017. Fun fact, they actually filmed some of scenes for the Game of Thrones spin off, House of the dragon there! It's hard to pick favorites but if your wedding includes a dog in the bridal party, a dress with pockets and the cupid shuffle....COUNT ME IN! Among my never-ending list of dream sessions is of course a wedding at Disneyworld and the ultimate outdoorsy engagement session with the wild horses at Shackleford Banks. Don't be surprised when I ask you to add me to your pinterest boards so I can fangirl over your wedding plans.

We were on a very tight budget and asked to removed some of the items in her package to ensure she would be the one to photograph our wedding. She was immensely passionate about our family struggles and understood that we were paying for our wedding with no help from family. Any questions I had even when they weren’t pertaining to photography, Lyn did research and found deals that helped us save money. I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer to work with than Lyn. She walked through every step of my wedding with us and when my wedding came, Lyn an Melissa were more than I could have ever expected! They were so personable, professional, and made sure we were comfortable every moment we were with them! After our wedding we had continually gotten compliments on how fantastic they were and how they always had a smile and never got upset when our guests asked for photos of themselves with others! When we received our photos, they absolutely blew our minds! I cried so many happy tears because I never thought I could look so beautiful!

I travel all over Michigan capturing my clients from Lansing to Grand Rapids to the west coast of Lake Michigan to Mackinac Island & Traverse City to all metro Detroit! I have a second home in Vail/Summit County, CO as well as Clearwater Beach/Tampa. This allows me to be local to multiple places and states! This career is so much more than just showing up and taking photos. It's emotion, it's detail, it's getting to know my clients and capturing each of them uniquely.

Dani did our wedding in 2022 and we have already had 3 more sessions with her and another on the books for this year. We also did our engagement session with her before we were married :) We are so thankful she has been someone that can document our lives as we grow!! She is AMAZING to work with and her photos are pure magic. It's really something that we haven't gotten bored from using her through the years, haha. But seriously, she seems to offer something a little different each time and oh my gosh we are still so blown away everytime we get our photos back from her!! We've even sent more of our family to her so she's basically become our whole extended family photographer :D

Julia is truly the BEST photographer out there and she makes everyone look SO GOOD!! We booked her for both our engagement session and our wedding because we loved her so much! She is so skillful at finding beautiful angles and working with natural lighting, and she was great at directing us with suggested poses that didn’t look forced or unnatural. She was also really easy to work with: we met up beforehand to communicate our vision and discuss the kinds of photographs that we wanted for the engagement session and we did that again for our wedding. On our wedding day Julia brought her husband Leo who is also a photographer to assist her and they came early in the morning to begin taking scenery photos, details, and other things while the rest of us got ready. She was there with us throughout the entire day all the way til the end of the evening and she went out with us to take some sunset photos in the middle of the reception, which turned out so beautifully! Finally, Julia was super prompt at sending us the final photographs, which I know she worked hard on because there were A LOT! We can tell that Julia truly enjoys what she does and really wants to get the best photos possible so she always goes above and beyond. I think the phenomenal photos that we’re sharing here can speak for themselves. She was such a joy to work with and we can’t wait to find some other excuse to hire her again!!

By the wedding day, I felt completely at ease and able to focus on the moment with my husband rather than my insecurities in my head.

Two Upper West Siders. Twenty blocks apart. How had we not crossed paths before? Or did we? Well, after finally matching on Hinge we made that happen and the rest is history! We have combined families and now as a family of 7 (three dogs, two cats) we have become an unstoppable force. We both share the same passion for photography, capturing the beauty all around us and making magic happen. Our dog Lucy, embodies love, kindness and poise. We couldn’t imagine naming our business after anyone but her. That’s how Love, Lucy Photography came to be.

Not only are they both lovers of Taylor Swift (so am I so we had lots to chat about!) Bethany and Raquel are phenomenal photographers/people in general and you shouldn’t hesitate to book them. I’ve recommended them to basically everyone I know getting married or has even the most distant of plans to get married. They go above and beyond the basic responsibilities of photographers and genuinely love documenting love. I hope to book them for literally anything in the future. They were the very first vendor we booked in our entire wedding planning process and set the bar waaaay too high for everyone else. They were one of the few vendors we reached out to that did an initial Zoom consultation. I think based on rom-coms I had this crazy idea in my head that wedding planning was done through in-person appointments, but I quickly learned most is done through emails and phone calls making it all feel a little impersonal. Our first meeting with Bethany and Raquel was amazing and it felt like they were actually invested in learning about us as a couple (they definitely were!) and the type of photography experience/style we were looking for. Their kind and thoughtful personalities led us to book them for our engagement shoot and wedding straight away. They definitely can meet you at whatever level of crazy you’re currently running at. For example, for our engagement shoot I had made a whole powerpoint of the types of shots I wanted as well as potential outfits. I did a complete 180 by the wedding and I told them I trusted their artistic vision completely and had no shot list other than the groupings for formal portraits. The photographs came in while we were on our honeymoon and we were blown away by the gallery. Everything was beautifully photographed, edited, and curated. On the wedding day my husband and I were excited for our first look partially because we got to see each other, but also because it was a hang sesh with both of them (lol!). They are wonderful people who put you at ease whenever you chat with them and become your genuine lifelong friends along the way. Many guests complimented their work style in which they weren't intrusive during the ceremony, but were constantly snapping both candid and posed photos. We didn’t want our wedding to feel merely like a spectacle –we wanted it to be a gathering of all our loved ones, so Bethany and Raquel's candid style was a perfect match for us.

Hello, I'm Kayla! Voted most likely to succeed in the field of agriculture. Yet somehow, landed here. And I wouldn't change a single thing. Life has taken me on some crazy adventures and up until 6 years ago, none of those pointed to being a photographer. Becoming a mom led me to pick up a camera and since then I haven't put it back down. I quickly developed a passion for telling people's stories. Capturing the most intimate, heartfelt moments truly sets my soul on fire.

Kayla French Photography was a fantastic choice for our wedding photography. Kayla provided great communication everything leading up to the wedding and after, and the day of she couldn't have been more helpful. Kayla's work is absolutely amazing - you can tell she loves what she does and it really shows in the beautiful photos she captured. Kayla helped in every way to contribute to our special day, and our guests really enjoyed her presence and positive energy. We are thrilled with the sneak peaks and can not wait to see final photos. We would highly recommend Kayla French Photography to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photographer.

When I first started wedding photography, I made a goal of being more than just the photographer on your big day. I made it my goal to be your friend, someone you can crack inside jokes with, and someone who isn't afraid to get down + have fun at the reception (while still doing her job). I made it my goal to capture more than just photos, but an experience. Whether it’s high in the mountains, on a beach near the ocean, in a forest meadow - you deserve to get married however you want to & I want to capture it for you.

L & L Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding day. Lexi, one of the photographers, was incredibly effective and charismatic in her communication style, making the experience fun and easy. She was patient in answering all our questions and ensuring every moment was captured beautifully. The quality of their work is truly top tier, and their services are very affordable, making them a tremendous value. Lexi rocked every single moment, seamlessly blending into the celebration and creating absolute magic with her moody, romantic photography style. I've worked with many photographers, and Lexi is now my go-to - I cannot recommend L & L Photography highly enough.

I reside in Jersey City, New Jersey, serving New Jersey, New York, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, and beyond. I grew up surrounded by family photos. My parents had a professional photography business, Infinity Photography, back in the days of film. My friend asked me to do her senior portraits, so I started my photography business after my parent's business was closed for nearly 20 years. Fun fact, I chose "Grey" because I'm a nerd, and I love Jean Grey - she's my fave X-men. Also, my name is hard to spell, especially when you hear it. It's like "Leah" with a "Tuh."

Taliya gave us the absolute best wedding photography experience. She was extremely professional and quick to answer any questions at any point along the way. She made sure every detail was arranged before hand so there were 0 surprises along the way and day of. Not to mention that the photos turned out phenomenal. She was great at posing and framing to get the best shots and made sure that everything got pictured and captured from our special day. Would recommend 100%

Photography should tell a story.. so let's get to writing! My goal is to capture the connection between people and convey a message through a picture. I specialize in portrait photography and work with clients to get those "must-have" moments for them to cherish for many years to come.

Great photographer who is extremely well organized and very professional. She will make sure that everything is running smoothly and go above and beyond to meet or exceed client expectations. As a wedding professional it is critical to be on the same page and She does exactly that. Very fun to work with. I look forward to the next time being able to work with Moments Captured in CNY.

As a wedding photographer, I get to capture those fleeting, special moments that make each couple's love story unique. With over 4 + years of experience, I blend artistry with technical skill to create images that are not only beautiful but deeply meaningful.

Working with Prest1ge Photography was a pleasure. He has great talent, professionalism, and dedication to his craft. It was worth every penny.

Caleb was so flexible with his time and listened to me with what shots I wanted to have. If I had questions or concerns, he was quick to reply. He was very personable to my guests at my wedding as many commented on how friendly he was.
