Marilyn Lamanna Photography

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $6,000
  • Serves Rockaway Beach, NY

Hey there!! My name is Marilyn and I'm so glad you're here ♡ I am a couples + wedding photographer based in New York City, and happy to travel to wherever your day is at! I've had pink hair for the last 6 years so at this point it has become a personality trait and I'm 100% okay with it. I love the outdoors, pat every dog I can, and thrive on ben and jerry's. My ideal place to be would likely be frolicking in wildflowers in a dress that's way too long, but the longer the better. The patio of my NYC apartment with a good book is a close second favorite though, for sure.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the first email, Marilyn was warm and welcoming! And that spirit stayed with us through planning, zooms, and the whole day of the wedding. Of course, her work speaks for itself, and i think you can feel the love and emotions she captures through her lens. She captured so many special joys and moments, I feel like I am reliving our wedding day over and over! I think Marilyn's pricing is fair and well worth the money spent. We went with the additional film option and the film shots are absolutely my favorite! Thank you so much, Marilyn!

Please reach out via the contact page on my website to connect! // I'm a digital & film photographer living in NYC capturing weddings, couples, and life around me. I approach photography intentionally, and am emotionally driven behind the camera. I’m all about those in-between candids and documenting in the moment, as well as artful editorial guided posing. I love making genuine connections with people, and the natural friendships that can come from working together! Approaching your wedding photography as an art form is just a small part of why I absolutely love what I do.

When I came across Rebecca's website and portfolio I was immediately smitten. Her style was so beautiful and unique, and exactly what I was hoping to find for our wedding. One quick call with her and I knew she was our photographer. She was so warm and welcoming and we felt completely ourselves around her. We had FUN spending time with her for both our engagement and wedding photos. Aside from her amazing skills - she went ABOVE AND BEYOND to coordinate our engagement photos with us when we were living in California. She was the easiest choice we made and we love every photo she took for us. Cannot recommend her highly enough! - Chelsean Nick

Thalia is a NYC & destination wedding photographer based in Queens, NY. Being the lead photographer and owner of her business, she has 10 years of experience capturing engaged couples. She has developed a keen eye for detail, leaving couples with intentional photographs that capture the authenticity of their wedding day. A New York native, she grew up on Long Island for many years where she received her BFA in Visual Arts from SUNY Old Westbury and now - if she's not traveling - you can find her enjoying a new coffee shop or re-watching The Office!

Awarded Best of Zola
I met Thalia in a professional setting and after meeting her, we connected on social media and for YEARS I knew I wanted to work with her in some capacity (ideally my wedding :)). Fast forward to getting engaged this year, I had the opportunity to hire her to photograph our city hall wedding. The photographs were everything I imagined and more but what was even better was experiencing what being in front of her camera felt like. She truly has a gift for making you feel comfortable, forget that she’s there, while still providing guidance when needed. Thalia is quick on her feet and knew how to maximize our time with her when plans on our timeline had to shift a little. She asked important questions prior to our ceremony and offered great suggestions when we needed them. She also offered solutions when I got a little carried away with my vision and started dreaming up a photo shoot that would just push our time limits (which I appreciated). If you love her work and her images, I promise you won’t regret your decision of hiring her!

Awarded Best of Zola
Dj Sparkx Entertainment was an incredible experience from start to finish. From our initial contact to the post-wedding follow-up, he was consistently professional and attentive. Our wedding took place in December 2024, just a few days after Christmas—a timing that had both its challenges and blessings. Despite the busy holiday season, Dj Sparkx took the time to thoroughly go over all our preferences and ensure everything was perfectly planned for our big day. On the wedding day, he exceeded all our expectations. Our guests are still raving about how engaging he was and how skillfully he played music that resonated with both sides of our family. Dj Sparkx masterfully balanced the Caribbean spice with the classic American hits, making the event enjoyable for everyone. He is versatile and does his research for any cultural background! He also made it a point to ensure that my husband and I had time on the dance floor and enjoyed ourselves. What stood out the most was how collaborative he was throughout the process. He listened to our ideas, shared his expert opinions, and every suggestion he made elevated our wedding to another level. Trusting a vendor with one of the most important days of your life can be daunting, but my advice is simple: trust Dj Sparkx! The photobooth was also a fantastic addition. Dj Sparkx added a special touch by surprising us with a photo album filled with messages from our guests—a keepsake we’ll treasure forever. We couldn’t be happier with our decision to work with Dj Sparkx. He is professional, cost-efficient, and, most importantly, an absolute joy to work with. Highly recommended!

This review is way overdue. My wife and I got married in December, and after our honeymoon and getting back into the swing of our busy lives filled with travel and work, I’m finally getting around to writing this. Honestly, choosing KND Photography was the best decision we made for our wedding. From our first chat, both Kinjo and Dawa dai were so attentive to what we wanted in our photos and really understood our style. On the wedding day and during the reception, they made us feel so comfortable and confident. They assured us through their gestures and communication that everything was under control, letting us truly enjoy our day without any worries. Everything did go as smoothly as they promised. We had been worried we wouldn’t have any frame-worthy shots based on past experiences with other photographers. But with KND, we ended up with too many favorites to choose from! It’s the best problem we could have had. I’m forever grateful to KND for capturing our special day. Thank you!

Awarded Best of Zola
Let me start by saying my wedding was a tall order! I wanted a wedding that was gothic, elegant, Victorian-inspired, dark, and moody. We were going for gothic without it being “scare grandma” gothic! And to make it a step harder, our wedding was in a very modern looking building in Manhattan. And to make it even one step harder, my husband and I are based in Ireland. Lauren completely understood my vision and designed the most beautiful wedding I have ever seen. We had so many friends and family approach us about how beautiful the decor was, and even multiple members of staff and various vendors saying they have never seen the venue look so amazing. Her attention to detail is beyond phenomenal and everything is done with such thoughtfulness and due diligence. Lauren was so organised throughout the entire wedding planning process. She helped us look for the best vendors, she went to view different tablecloth landscapes and furniture when we couldn’t (again, we live abroad!) and kept me up to date every step of the way without bombarding us so we could continue to regulate life outside of wedding planning. I have recommended Lauren multiple times to newly engaged friends, and will continue to recommend City and Terrace in the future! You truly cannot get a better wedding planner who listens to the couples’ wants and needs, understands, and most importantly keeps you calm and organised through the chaotic planning process! Her attention to detail is phenomenal. I highly recommend.

  • Not for you if you are drawn to more unconventional venues
  • Best for events with big guest lists
Awarded Best of Zola
We originally looked at more “industrial” venues because we wanted that intimate feel and didn’t love catering hall vibes. We found Renaissance as we live close by and loved it once we toured initially. They have the space of a catering hall but the experience of a single party venue. Food was great and we never felt like we were being uncharged/swindled. Even at one point we saw an error on the agreement and Lisa changed it no problem. She was a delight to work with and never made us feel like our ask was so unbelievable. Bridal suite was big enough for 10 people to get ready. Overall nothing but great things to say about Renaissance.

My wedding was this past weekend, and I still want to shout Amanda's praises from every rooftop! Hire her now! We had a complex wedding design: a full three-night, four-day weekend with several different spaces and layouts involved, and different guest lists for each day. Amanda handled everything masterfully. Every detail was exactly as we imagined (and more!), and she was a true joy to work with. My mother and I have different working styles and visions, and somehow Amanda found a way to meet both of our needs at each turn and help us avoid any conflict with one another. Amanda is highly detail-oriented and has a way of handling so many things "behind the scenes" and well in advance of the wedding - including crafting much of the decor and guest gifts weeks in advance, then personally transporting them to the wedding. It was efforts like this that really set her apart from other planners -- measurably reducing our stress each moment and taking things off our very full plates. We will genuinely miss speaking and working with Amanda. Our only regret was not hiring her sooner - she joined us after we had personally booked our venue and a handful of vendors, but having her with us earlier would have only enhanced our planning process.

I'm Kara :) I'm an adventurer, risk-taker, traveler, and wedding+ elopement photographer! I know that you're looking for more than just beautiful wedding photos which is why my work with you doesn't start (or end) there. You deserve an expert- somebody who can give you the best advice & industry secrets. I know the ins & outs of weddings because I live them every weekend & know the very real stress that comes with planning a wedding. Hiring me means being able to rest + relax knowing that everything is taken care of; somebody anticipating your needs before you even know them. I'm your hype girl, confidant, & the one to open the dance floor.

Awarded Best of Zola
Kara is in all things absolutely superlative. That might sound effusive, but I think it risks understatement. My wife and I had the privilege of engaging Kara’s talents for our wedding and it's difficult to convey how delightful working with Kara is and how happy we are with the photos that she took; language goes only so far. Picture me wild and gesticulating with glee, saying ‘look at this one, no look at *this* one!’ in sequence, for each and every photo of the wedding. I have Kara to thank for that, for these captured moments that I treasure over anything else. To get results like that I think you need to be an artist of considerable talent, a detail-oriented business owner, a capable director of unpracticed models, and to very much love what you do. I can say that all of these things are true about Kara: her work speaks for itself, her appointments are kept, her communications are prompt, detailed, and delightful, her directions while shooting ease you adroitly into your best angles, and her eye catches magic when you’ve forgotten about the camera entirely. Kara is a genius who will get you out of your head and into your heart, she is an absolute joy to work with, and I can’t recommend her photography enough.

We aim to work alongside clients to bring an unexpected mix of on trend designs and elegant classic styles. Whether it be an intimate gathering after City Hall or the event of the season, we can't wait to design something special and tailored to you!

I don’t know what magic Fern Botanica puts into their flowers, but they delivered the most impressive array of bouquets I’d ever seen in my whole life. We ordered bouquets a la carte from them (two bridal and 16 bridesmaids!), and gave them a color palette and inspiration image to work from—and I cannot even believe how stunning the result was. Our budget was limited, so we reused the bouquets as centerpieces for the tables, and Fernies also helped us figure out the best size vases, so we could transition them easily. Also, we were gifted flower preservation, and the artist immediately asked who our florist was because she was so impressed by the flowers. That’s how you know it’s good. I will absolutely be using them again for everything from causal arrangements to special events. The team there has such an incredible eye and style, they did all the heavy lifting, and we got to enjoy the rewards of people complimenting our beautiful flowers. Win/win.

After nearly a decade of freelancing as a wedding cinematographer and photographer, I’m excited to have opened my own studio, dedicated to capturing love stories. While I originally came to the U.S. in 2015 for a Master’s in International Business, I discovered my true passion for documenting life’s most special moments. Weddings are about more than just beautiful shots—they’re about preserving raw, candid emotions. My goal is to capture moments you’ll cherish forever, so you can relive your wedding day for years to come.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment we first spoke with Saajan and the team at Veil & Film, we knew they were the perfect photographers to capture our special day. Their communication style was responsive, attentive, and professional, yet they also had a warm and collaborative approach that put us at ease. The quality of their work is simply outstanding - artistic, high-quality, and truly emotional. They captured so many candid moments that we didn't even realize were happening, like my father tearing up during our first dance. Saajan and his team made us feel so comfortable during our first look, guiding us naturally while still letting us enjoy the moment. The highlight video they delivered perfectly told our love story, and the full-length documentary allowed us to relive every detail we might have missed. Veil & Film didn't just give us photos and videos - they gave us memories we'll cherish forever. Their services were worth every penny, and we couldn't recommend them more highly.

I’m obsessed with details and exploring new techniques, methods and combinations. I love exceeding expectations and showing people how fun floral design can be.

Awarded Best of Zola
Cristina did a phenomenal job on the florals for our recent wedding. She is so professional, talented, and listened to our requests. She was patient when we needed some guidance on specific sizes/details and helped us get comfortable every step of the way. The resulting florals were stunning and exactly what we wanted. She was so wonderful to work with and transparent on pricing/adjustments. I would use her again in a heartbeat!

Yvan smashed it out of the park with the food, I have never heard so many rave reviews from our friends and family in my life. Most importantly, they are so kind.

It was great to work with Michelle and her team. She was very professional, got along with all of the guests and the staff at the venue. She traveled to our hotel and to the venue with no complaints. Michelle and her team captured our wedding beautifully, from the getting ready photos, the ceremony and the reception! I love all the candids, the camera and picture quality are amazing. Everyone was able to tell that Michelle works very diligently and cares about the work she puts out. She sent the photos to us in a very timely manner and was communicative throughout the whole process. I love how at the time of booking, we had to schedule a consultation just for her to get to know us. It was camera’s on so we were all able to get a feel for who each of us would be working with. The exercise she had us do, when we needed to choose the pictures we love the best, of us during our relationship to assess if we would be a mutual fit, in terms of her working style was super cool because it showed us that she wants to make sure she meshes well with her clients. Overall, a wonderful experience & everyone should book!

Throughout the nerve wrecking wedding planning process, AJ was quick to respond and super helpful with any questions I had. His work has blown us away!! Even the most picky members of our family were speechless after watching the trailer that he created for us. Every component of his work is amazing, from the still shots, to the candids, and even the music that he chose for the trailer. We cannot thank him enough for providing us with the most amazing memories. I would be lying if I didn't say that I already watched the trailer 10 times and will absolutely keep turning it on.
