Liesl NYC

  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Rockaway Beach, NY

Hi! I’m Liesl, founder of Liesl nyc. I started my career at an old time photo tourist trap in South Dakota and came to the big city to be a fashion photographer (with a few stops along the way.) Though I found a love for portraits and weddings and made that my focus, I’ve kept the editorial aesthetic. Though I’ve lived in Brooklyn for 15 years I’ve kept the South Dakota demeanor. A calm and comfortable presence helps a lot when you’re not used to being followed around by a photographer. Getting great pictures shouldn’t be intimidating. It’ll be way more fun than you think

I am beyond pleased with the engagement photos my fiance and I received from Liesl with Photo Pink. We had a specific vision for a 1920's prohibition-esque theme and she made that dream come to life. I was so nervous to book an engagement shoot in NYC in the dead of winter, but Liesl booked a gorgeous venue for our shoot where we could be warm! What I liked most about working with her were the thoughtful angles and directions she gave us throughout the shoot. It was obvious she was invested and present with us the entire time. Everything was easy - from the start of our communication to the end. I will absolutely be working with her in the future.

Hi! My name is Jeremy and I'm THRILLED you're here. I am passionate about authentic story telling and believe that more than a just one thousand words, a picture evokes memories, comforts, heals and brings life & joy to people.

We were a little nervous about our wedding and engagement photos before meeting with Jeremy. We are a mixed couple with very different skin tones and wanted to make sure we both looked our best in the pictures. After the first meeting with Jeremy we immediately felt better and became excited about the pictures. Our engagement session was a ton of fun (even though we had freezing rain instead of the expected snow) and he was organized, ready to go and flexible the day of the wedding. He also wasn't obtrusive or in anyone's way (I've seen this at other weddings), but still managed to get all of the important shots plus so many more throughout the day. As for the actual pictures, Jeremy FAR exceeded our expectations. The pictures are BEAUTIFUL and there are so many amazing ones to choose from when printing our wedding album and pictures to hang in our home. Neither of us were washed out and we both seemed to be glowing (not sure how he worked that magic). We are so incredibly happy that we went with Jeremy Lee Photography for our engagement and wedding pictures and would choose him again if we were to plan our wedding a second time.

Sam and Deb- I have only great things to say about this coordinating and decorating duo. I found them through Zola and am so glad I did. Most of our wedding was DIY and Sam and Deb really helped us get across the finish line on our wedding day. Through zoom meetings leading up to the wedding day and coordination on the day of they were extremely communicative, easy to work with, and a pleasure to be around. They understood our vision and executed it to perfection. Extra shout out to Deb who took our semi-vague wedding decor vision, ran with it, and absolutely nailed it. They did a great job of setting up our timeline, working with our vendors, and wrangling our friends and family for the ceremony. We would hire them again in a heartbeat.

Cynthia Ross Events

  • Planner
  • Offers 6 services
  • Starts at $200
  • Serves Rockaway Beach, NY

I’m Cynthia Ross – a New York City wedding planner with a well-stamped passport and a passion for helping brides, from Brooklyn to Barbados and everywhere in-between. I help brides create the perfect wedding day. I negotiate tricky contracts and plan dreamy destination weddings. After fifteen years and hundreds of events, I can help you shape a memorable, stress-free day. You deserve a wedding that delights your guests and meets your every expectation. Let’s make a beautiful wedding happen – just the way you dreamed it would be.

A day-of-coordinator is one of the last wedding vendors I considered, and working with Cindy made me wish I booked her right after getting engaged! Every step of the process working with Cindy demonstrated her professionalism, skill, and kindness. From our first consultation call, she immediately put me at ease and shared her own experience with weddings similar to ours. Throughout the planning process, she was highly accessible starting from the time we booked with her, striking the best balance of offering her perspective while encouraging us to make the decision that was best for us. She also offered invaluable insight such as recommending an excellent videographer who we were very happy with. Despite her busy schedule during peak wedding season, she always ensured that I, my now husband, and parents felt heard and received her full attention. The night before my wedding, a vendor reached out with a timing concern that would have led me to panic had it not been for Cindy, who solved the issue without my having to give it a second thought, leading to the ceremony entrance that my husband and I dreamed of. The day of my wedding, Cindy and Caroline immediately brought a sense of calm and joy when my bridesmaids and I were getting ready, and were on top of little wrinkles that arose in the plan, such as when a transportation vendor didn’t show up. I hadn’t realized that there would be so many wedding items to keep track of (vendor gratuities, favors, signs, toasting flutes, etc etc etc), but Cindy and Caroline ensured that all these things were set up correctly at the venue, and packed up at the end of the night. Overall, it is hard to imagine how the day would have gone without them. They were unquestionably an essential part of how we were able to enjoy some calm and lots of fun during our wedding day, and we are so grateful to them!

Katya Rusin established Lavka Flowers with the singular goal of revisioning the sentiment and enjoyment of what was once a humble act; the giving and accepting of flowers. As the lead designer, Katya is inspired most by art and it's a visual quality that connects people. She translates this visual quality through the use of color to transform individual flowers into a collective whole. Katya achieves her designs by utilizing the elements of design with an appreciation for texture.

I recently had the pleasure of working with wedding florist Katya Rusin from Lavka Flowers, and I cannot express enough how delighted I am with her exceptional service. From the initial consultation to the day of the event, Katya demonstrated a level of expertise and professionalism that truly set her apart. The flowers provided by Katya were nothing short of spectacular. Each arrangement was not only beautiful but also incredibly fresh, surpassing my expectations. Katya not only understood my vision but went above and beyond to deliver a result that exceeded my desires. Her attention to detail and commitment to perfection were evident in every petal. Katya's responsiveness and extensive knowledge about flowers and design made the entire process seamless. She was not only a skilled florist but also a delicate and intuitive professional who seemed to understand exactly what we needed. Her ability to interpret our preferences and turn them into stunning floral arrangements showcased her artistic flair and passion for her craft. One of the standout moments was during the wedding day when unexpected challenges arose. Despite the crazy wind, our Chuppah was set up outside. Katya and her team handled the situation with such expertise that we didn't have to worry about a thing. The Chuppah remained steadfast throughout the entire wedding night, a testament to Katya's meticulous planning and execution. I recommend Katya Rusin to anyone in search of an amazing and reliable wedding florist. Her talent, knowledge, and dedication ensure that your special day is adorned with the most exquisite floral arrangements. Trust Katya for your wedding, and you'll undoubtedly experience the same level of satisfaction and joy that I did.

Ty communicated with us promptly when asking questions or talking about the process of how each day would go. He is very skilled in making a wedding day run smoothly with photos and creating a timeline. He made us feel comfortable and in return created some amazing photos capturing our personalities and relationship perfectly. Unlike some photographers that do the same things over and over or using the same types of scenes he will bring you to new places, beautiful spots and create "poses" that fit you as a couple and the style of your wedding day. If you're the adventurous type he is your guy too! We snuck of to beautiful fields and landscapes near sunset and they are some of my most favorite photos.

Hiring AMP was the all time BEST decision we could have made for our wedding! We had immediate comfort and trust in them from the first time we spoke, and the show they put on for our day was better than we ever could have imagined. They were incredibly responsive and helpful throughout the whole process of planning and had no problem with even the most far-fetched ideas (including my wife surprising me by getting up and playing the drums with the band). If we asked each and every person what their favorite part of our wedding was, hands down it was the music. Ana, Jimmy, and the rest of the band had everyone dancing the entire night without question. It was hit after hit after hit with the whole crowd! So many people rushed to us to ask how we got so lucky finding them. Ana and Jimmy truly respected and acknowledged everyone’s pronouns and made everyone in our family and party seen and comfortable through the entire process. AMP put their entire heart and soul into every performance. Their passion is so evident with each song they play, and their energy is just contagious. You cannot help but smile and dance throughout their whole set. And the TALENT! The talent is through the roof! All of our guests were completely shocked at the level of professionalism and talent AMP brought to our event. I cannot stress enough how utterly amazing AMP is. Do yourself a huge favor and book them, you will not regret it for a second.

Jessica with Virtuous Endeavors was our day of coordinator and we couldn't have asked for anyone better! She gave us recommendations on vendors several months prior and then started helping with contacting our vendors a couple months out. She asked questions and made me think of things I never would have planned for. On the wedding day, she ensured that my vendors communicated with HER and not us. She truly went above and beyond and we are so happy we had her! We had an outdoor wedding on some family land so the planning and coordinating was even more of a challenge than usual and Jessica did absolutely incredible. Book with Virtuous Endeavors, I promise you won't regret it!!

I've always bought a strong work ethic to anything I do (thanks Dad), if I am chosen to be your wedding photographer you will get my full attention and devotion to produce the most beautiful and complete coverage of your wedding that 20 years of experience can deliver. I work hard and stay incredibly focused because I know that every moment cannot be repeated. I love what I do and it shows in the work.

Working with Craig and his team was an absolute highlight of the wedding day. He is the epitome of thoughtful and professional. Craig was incredibly organized in advance of our event. He asked for a schedule of the day so he could figure out where he and his team needed to be and when. He helped us layout all the shots we wanted to make sure we got and nailed EVERY ONE. He was the perfect balance of present and invisible. And not only that, the pictures are INSANELY GORGEOUS. We made a stunning album from his images and look at it all the time. I cannot recommend Craig and his team enough.

MARS TAKES PHOTOS

  • Serves Rockaway Beach, NY

Hi! I’m Marci, but I also go by Mars. I’m a photographer who specializes in analog film photography, but I also offer digital photography and am typically shooting both on a wedding day. My greatest inspiration comes from organic moments, lived-in details, cinematic storytelling and human connection — I take all these influences into consideration when photographing a wedding day and like to consider my approach documentary with an editorial flare.

We loved our photos from the elopement, and we are sure we’ll love the rest of the wedding photos when they come back. Thank you for everything. You had such a calming presence, and your work is exquisite! I’d recommend Marci to anyone looking for documentary style photography of their wedding day.

My style is distinct, a result of both my unrelenting commitment to my craft and complete trust from clients who commission me. You’re not going to read about any awards, badges, or “top 10 lists” because what matters is you’re in love with the work that you see and are ready to trust me entirely to do what I do. This trust drives me to find the perfect balance between creative experimentation and honest documentation.

Can't recommend Sam enough. Not only is his work some of the best I've seen and is well known around the world, but he is also just super chill to work with. He lets videographers do their thing and is very easy going with the couples and vendors he works with.

I’m Claudia, a full-time photographer based in Long Island, NY. When I’m not behind the camera, you can find me hiking, belting to Mariah Carey in my car, or curled up on the couch with my boyfriend Gabe. I’m gonna shut up about me, because this moment is about YOU. You are the guests of honor here, and I want you to set the pace of your own shoot. I am all for breaking tradition -- if you want to jump in a creek or tackle your partner into the ground, do it.

I highly recommend Claudia to be your photographer! She is professional, she knows what she is doing! I love that about her, she will take you through everything with ease. I honestly felt so comfortable during my wedding day, she played music and went straight for it! She will direct you and makes the environment feel so relaxed and you will have fun with her. Please book her!! My photos turned out so amazing! I love each picture, she knows how to capture the purest moments! I love you Claudia! You are the best!!

In an age of algorithms, hashtags, and followers photography has taught Alex the true importance of the human connection. To him, photography is more than composing a beautiful shot or finding the best light. It’s about finding moments that shares with the viewer a special insight into the couples, the friends, that he has the privilege to document. He strives to capture feelings and emotions that take people back to special moments worth remembering for generations to come.

Alex and his team were phenomenal. My wife and I just got back from visiting family for the holidays and they are still talking about how much they loved Alex and his team. Alex, Vlad and the team drove to upstate NY to capture our day! Since my wife and I live in NC, we had not met Alex before our wedding day but that was not an issue at all because he arrived early to learn who was in our family and bridal party. This allowed him to get all of our must-have pictures. Even though our day has passed, Alex continues to be extremely responsive. On Christmas, we were having difficulty accessing our video to show to family so we email Alex, not expecting a response...it was Christmas day. Within 5 minutes Alex responded with our video links so that we could share with family. Many of our friends have gotten engaged in the last several weeks and we are recommending Alex to all of them.

I'm just an 80's born, 90's raised millennial photographer who wants to shoot passionate couples and have his avocado toast too. My approach to photography is journalistic, directed not posed. My approach to a wedding day is calm, attentive, easy-going, non-intrusive without being awkwardly shy, and always with a smile.

We absolutely loved working with Hector for our engagement photos. The experience itself was a blast - we truly had so much fun shooting and he made us feel comfortable and relaxed, which is exactly what comes through in every single photo. The final product is beyond what we could have imagined and we have not stopped getting compliments from family and friends. We are booking him for our wedding and know he will take beautiful photos to help us remember the day!

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
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.
