My name is Stephanie and I am a Photographer that leads with intention. You can find me following you around on your wedding day crying at how beautiful you are and getting giddy as we get the shot. I am dying to do the HOTTOGO dance with one of my couples on the dance floor. Fireside Sparrow leaned into weddings in 2020, so you can trust me, I've been through it, seen it, and promise you that I have GOT YOU on your wedding day.

Awarded Best of Zola
Words cannot adequately describe how amazing, flawless, and special our experience was. From day one, Stephanie's professionalism, eye for detail, true love for photography, and desire to capture the essence of our love story was very clear. Although we are a bit further from Stephanie (eastern MA residents), she committed to coming to southern CT to meet us for our engagement shoot and then to central MA for our wedding. When we were surprised by a pop up thunderstorm right before our ceremony on the big day, Stephanie acted not just as our photographer but as a friend and helped us navigate the nerves and emotions of the change from outdoor to indoor ceremony. Her photos are exactly what we were looking for. When we view them, we are transported right back to that day, and every emotion, every hug, every sentimental moment is there for us to cherish. We HIGHLY recommend Stephanie and her beautiful photography and plan to work with her for many more years to come.

Nichole was absolutely amazing to work with! We had our engagement shoot with her last summer and she went above and beyond. We are so happy with how our photos came out. We got married this October and again, Nichole was a dream to work with. She showed up with my favorite Starbucks coffee. I was so touched by this gesture. From the moment she arrived, she kept me calm and directed my husband and bridal party on where to go. She was so organized that we were ahead of schedule and had even more time for photos. She was also so kind to everyone and my family and friends adored her. The morning after my wedding, we were sent sneak peeks and my husband and I love them! They're beautiful and we cannot wait to see the rest. I highly recommend Photography by Strain!

We love to travel so much that we keep our prices affordable- giving us the opportunity to cover all over the USA (no travel fees).

Check out our FB or Youtube for HUNDREDS of weddings we shot in the past.

We were so impressed by 505 media and their quick responses and quality of photo/video they took! From the initial phases of planning, they were quick to respond and eager to help in the planning process of making sure timelines were manageable. They were able to capture all of the milestones during the day and were even willing to hop on our party bus when we wanted footage of the wedding party driving around! We were so impressed by how quick the photos were delivered! We received a text while on our honeymoon the week after our wedding that our edited photos were done and one week later we received all our pictures! You don’t hear that often from photography companies! We also watched our wedding video trailer today (which was delivered in less than 2 months from our wedding) and can’t stop watching it!

Being the daughter of first-generation immigrants, I saw how precious photos become in life. Some photos are the only tangible connection we have to a person or place that is dearly missed. Thanks to my dad, I was introduced to the world of photography the same day I was introduced to the world. Because of my parents, our memories growing up are preserved. When I was 6, I received my own camera, marking the beginning of a lifelong dedication to documenting every aspect of my life.

Aside from his love of filmography, Marc enjoys basketball, playing guitar/bass/drums, landscape photography, cooking, and watching his favorite shows while cuddling with our mini dachshunds Sammie & Brady. As for me... well I have many loves in life, but mostly salsa dancing & my dogs :)

We couldn’t have asked for a more exceptional team than Kalena and Marc for our wedding photography and videography. From our engagement photoshoot to the wedding day itself, their talent and creativity truly shone through. Kalena’s eye for detail and ability to capture the most intimate and joyous moments made our engagement shoot an absolute delight, while Marc’s cinematic style brought our wedding day to life in a way we never imagined. Both their work turned out to be nothing short of stunning, exceeding all our expectations and perfectly capturing the essence of our special day. Working with Kalena and Marc was a joy from start to finish. They brought a fun and positive energy that made every moment feel natural and effortless. Their professionalism and passion for their craft were evident in every shot and frame, resulting in a breathtaking collection of images and videos that we will treasure forever. Their ability to blend into the background while still capturing every beautiful detail made the entire experience seamless, and we couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. We could not recommend MC Visuals more to anyone looking for truly extraordinary wedding photography and videography.

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

Awarded Best of Zola
Dasha was recommended to us by a friend, but we were unsure of what to expect and really weren't too enthused about having to take wedding photos (mostly a family request). We relented and ended up with a rainy day, which further worried us. Dasha calmly and efficiently guided us around her suggested locations, with minimal fuss. The whole experience was easy, efficient, and professional. The final product was excellent. We would absolutely recommend Dasha, especially if you have any doubts or are unsure of where/how/what you want...she will guide you perfectly!

Nelson and his team photographed our May wedding in Plattekill, NY and the experience was absolutely extraordinary! They were professional while also personable making the experience very relaxed and natural.

There wasn't a single moment of concern or stress during photos! Now to gush about the product!! Nelson and his team caught the most PERFECT moments. My husband and I expressed early on that we preferred candid or organic shots and not so much the typical couple poses. And I must say, Nelson got it right! It brought us right back to the day when we were looking through the huge inventory of shots. Brought tears of joy and gratitude. Lets not forget the video!! My GOD!!

Melissa photographed our May 2022 wedding, and I would definitely recommend her! We first contacted Melissa after a friend referred us to her.  Melissa was consistently communicative, agile, and punctual throughout the entire process.  Her vibe aligned exactly with what we were seeking, it became clear that we had found a great match, both in terms of style and personality. The quality and style of her images stood out in a crowd of wedding photographers. We were looking for a candid-style wedding photographer with a relaxed style that’s both modern and timeless.   The connection and ease we found with her shows through in the final product.  Melissa’s eye for detail is astounding, and beyond her technical expertise, she is a joy to work with.  We have the most beautiful and unrushed photos from our magical, big day.  If you’re looking for a cheap photographer, Melissa definitely isn’t the one for you. But if you value photography and want someone who is a master of their craft and a true professional all-round, look no further.  Plus, she offers something that not all photographers can – true artistry.  Our wedding photos are completely unique to us and our event, we framed a print that hangs over our couch and receives frequent compliments. We also purchased a fine art album which is quite simply a work of art. We will cherish these photos forever. Thank you, Melissa Marx Photography!

I've had a camera in my hands for as long as I can remember; I used it like a pocket journal of sorts and photographed constantly while growing up in Hawai'i. I fell into weddings when my dad remarried in 2013, and I remember being caught off guard by the swirl of emotions I felt standing at the edge of a new beginning. Turning those feelings into tangible memories was the only thing that made sense. I moved to New York City to refine my skillset and took a detour into the fashion industry before receiving my Bachelor's in photography from NYU.

We reached out to Natalie to be our wedding photographer because her portfolio was beautiful and colorful! From the moment we met Natalie, we felt a connection to her. When we had a vendor hiccup in the planning process, they were supportive and suggested alternatives - demonstrating their thoughtfulness and kindness. On the wedding day, her professional expertise shone through. They were organized, attentive, and seamlessly blended into the background, capturing moments without being intrusive. Her calming presence and ability to anticipate important shots made us feel completely at ease, allowing us to fully enjoy our day. Natalie’s talent for capturing genuine emotions and the smallest details was really evident in our wedding gallery. They managed to capture the essence of the celebration, the editing also felt like it was done with warmth and a lot of care. We wholeheartedly recommend her, you won’t regret it!

Every person is beautiful, unique and has a story to tell. Allow us to show you how we see you. Focus on what the day is about and everything else becomes secondary. We don't just show up and shoot. We want to ensure that we are constantly and collectively on the same page in regards to the vision of your session. Our goal is to work together with you in hopes of creating something special for future generations to look back on.

David was amazing at our wedding! He was fun, outgoing, and made all of us, specially me, very comfortable throughout the day. David provided us a nice timeline that really helped me be less stress (I'm very picky) and he was more than willing to meet several times prior to our wedding date. I absolutely loved that he was very transparent before, on, and after our wedding and I can't say that for the rest of the vendors. I highly recommend him to anyone who's looking for an awesome photographer!

Hiya, I am Vital (pronounces Vee-tal), and I am a 20 something guy with a camera in my hands and a cheerful smile. I have been a wedding photographer since 2016, and every year I fall even more in love with my job. My fiancee and I have a dog and a cat. We love to travel domestically and abroad, and I can't imagine life without photos. I enjoy reading or listening to books, especially novels and biographies. Alpine climbing, backpacking, and road-tripping are among my hobbies too. There is more to my life story on my website :)

Melissa is amazing! My mom’s wedding was Melissa’s first about 8 years ago, my family and I have been cheering her on ever since! When I got engaged I knew immediately who I was going to call for our photos! A total bonus an engagement shoot was included in her wedding package!! She was absolutely amazing to work from start to finish. Great communication the entire time, very helpful and very good under pressure. A few things did not go our way on our wedding day due to weather and time but Melissa immediately had an idea on what to do instead. To add, she’s also an amazing hype woman behind the camera and definitely helped our smiles shine on our wedding day. I would give her 100 stars if I could!!

LT² Photography did a great job at our wedding. LaDonna truly went above and beyond to make sure that we have beautiful memories of our day. I’m so grateful that she encouraged us to get prints and wall art for keepsakes and decor in our home. Since we put our picture on the wall our dining has never looked or felt better. It just feels more like us now. She communicates so well and helped us stay organized and even sent us a budget calculator to help us manage our wedding finances- we didn’t even know we needed a budget tool until we started using it. I wish we hadn’t opted out of their videography service, but she gave us a highlight video anyway! I can’t say enough good things - my husband and I are just so impressed and glad we chose to work with LT2 Photography for our wedding.

Hi, my name is Ryan, thanks for checking out my work! I am very passionate about photography and I am extremely fortunate to make a living doing it! I’ve held a camera in my hands almost all my life, but I’ve been a professional NJ wedding photographer since 2005. Getting married? I’d love to be a part of your day! After capturing hundreds of weddings in the NJ area, there are very few venues that I’m not familiar with, chances are I’ve been to yours multiple times! I’m also available for engagement shoots, portraits, head shots, and family photos.

Awarded Best of Zola
The best decision I made on my wedding day was marrying my husband. A close second was using Ryan (Artemis Photo) as our photographer. If you're searching for a true professional, then look no further. Ryan was my most responsive vendor, getting back to me right away and always courteous and professional. My husband does not enjoy getting photos taken but he agrees that Ryan made the process as painless for him as possible and the results are STUNNING. We couldn't recommend him more!!

My name is Christopher Kayfield. I’m a professional photographer working in the NYC and Philadelphia areas. My focus is on personality, humor, and sincerity. I deliver a visual storybook, capturing the day’s narrative true to personalities.

Christopher is the best! From initial zoom meeting through wedding day and even after. His personality and sense of humor make working with him so fun and easy. He brought Kyle as our second shooter who was also laid back and wonderful. Low stress experience and high quality, beautiful pictures!!! Chris has awesome artistic vision and will do what he’s gotta do to capture the shot (shoes off, standing on furniture included). Our formal portraits feel modern, not stuffy and the dance floor candids put us right back in the moment. It was such a pleasure to have him with us capturing all our moments, big and small. Thank you Chris - so glad we found you!

WE'RE MARIA AND RICARDO, WE ARE HUSBAND AND WIFE AND THE HEART BEHIND THE PICTURES. WE ARE BASED IN NYC AND TAKE WEDDING COMISSIONS ALL AROUND THE US AND ABROAD BUT WE ARE ORIGINALLY FROM SPAIN AND PUERTO RICO MARIA IS YOUR PHOTOGRAPHER, ALL THE IMAGES ARE TAKEN AND EDITED BY HER. RICARDO IS YOUR VIDEOGRAPHER AND RUNS THE BUSINESS AND MAKES SURE EVERYTHING GOES AS IT SHOULD. THERE IS A LOT GOING ON BEHIND THE SCENES.OUR PHOTOGRAPHY IS BOLD & CREATIVE, AIMING TO TELL STORIES AND DOCUMENT THE REAL MOMENTS. WE ARE MORE THAN HAPPY TO SHOOT A FEW FORMALS AND WE ALWAYS LOOK FORWARD TO THE BRIDE AND GROOM SESSIONS.

We are absolutely obsessed with our wedding photos and videos! This team seriously brought their A-game and made our special day even more magical. From the start, they were super chill and easy to work with. On the big day, they were like ninjas, capturing every awesome moment without being in the way. They have such a knack for finding those perfect, candid shots that totally show the real us. Plus, the way they set up the posed photos. When we got our photos and the video, we couldn't stop smiling and laughing. They caught all the love, laughter, and even the crazy dance moves (hello, epic dance party!). The highlight reel was like a mini movie of the best day ever—we’ve already watched it a million times! The whole experience was just fun and stress-free, thanks to their good vibes and clear communication. They really listened to what we wanted and made sure we felt comfortable and relaxed.

I'm Jarrod. I'm a wedding photographer based in the US. Originally from Florida and now traveling full-time in a Sprinter van shooting love stories. ​I like to describe my approach to wedding photography as documentary with an editorial flare. About 80% of the day I am capturing your day as it naturally unfolds in a beautiful way. The other 20% I love to prompt you or direct you to create romantic images that have intention and FEELING. Sometimes portraits will feel romantic and editorial and other times they will feel playful and fun. It fully depends on your personal relationship. I love to tell your story as authentically as I can.

Awarded Best of Zola
Jarrod and his wife, Taylor, are truly a dream to work with! My husband and I really wanted some simple engagement photos taken, but were reluctant because we’re not totally comfortable in front of the camera and didn’t want the poses/photos to look cheesy. Taylor gave us plenty of suggestions to pose us naturally and kept us laughing which put us at ease immediately. Jarrod was such a professional and really worked every angle and background to make it look like we spent an entire day shooting. The editing was super crisp and clean and the photos came back incredibly quickly. They far exceeded our expectations and we can’t thank them enough for giving us beautiful, lasting memories from such an important time in our lives. This couple is seriously amazing - genuine, fun, and experts at what they do!! Book them!

We’re Anton & Natalie - your new adventure buddies! On our first date we spent the day doing what we love most, getting outside. That’s also how we spent our wedding day, and most other significant, life-altering moments in our relationship. We fundamentally believe that the best day of your life should be spent doing what makes your heart sing. You’re not here because you don’t care about your day, you’re here because you care more. You don’t want the ordinary and traditional. You want care more about experiences rather than material possessions. You want the authentic, intimate, and intentional day which focuses on YOU as a couple.

Natalie and Anton were fantastic. They were super easy to work with and made us feel very comfortable with all things COVID. Our wedding was smaller than originally planned and they just made working with them so easy. They did a fantastic job the day off and we got our pictures back way sooner than I expected. They are great!! Can’t wait to work with them again next year.

I tell each couple’s story beautifully and comprehensively in a way that is uniquely them creating wedding photography that emphasizes raw emotion, subtle gesture and straight-up fun! I've been photographing weddings professionally since 2004 and have run my own business for over 15 years.

Awarded Best of Zola
WOW! If I could rate TEN stars for Michelle, I would. We were very serious about the person we hired to capture our special day as these are the images we will have to remember our wedding day for the rest of our lives. We knew our photographer would also spend the whole day with us so it was important we did our due diligence to meet with every candidate. Most initial meetings were very quick, but we just hit it off the second we met Michelle in person and it was a NO brainer after that day. Michelle is INCREDIBLY talented and a true master of her craft. She captures the most unique and special moments and told the full story of our wedding day from start to finish. She is very professional and was super easy to work with! From our engagement shoot right off the bat she helped us not feel so awkward in front of the camera and on our wedding day, almost didn't even realize she was there! I am beyond thankful for the amazing photos we will have to cherish from an incredible day. I could go on for hours, but if you are in need for a wedding photographer, look no further and book with Michelle ASAP! THANK YOU MICHELLE !!!! <3
