  • Photographer

  • Serves Russell, NY for additional fees

When I went to college I knew I wanted to have a career that allowed me to work with people and so I studied Social Work and Psychology! Photography was a hobby but when my friend found her self with no photographer days before her wedding, she asked if I could shoot her day and from the first wedding I was hooked! 11 years later and I think I have the best job on the planet. I have been married to the love of my life Jordan for 6 years now and she is the extra magic in Swiger Photography. We have a lil rescue pup named Furgie and spend our free time trying new bourbons and exploring Philadelphia!

My wife and I got married in 2018 and had an amazing experience using Swiger Photography! She shot both our engagement pictures and our wedding and all the photos are incredible! Amanda and her wife Jordan are kind and professional as well as having the rare talent of putting people at ease. I will treasure the photos for the rest of my life and can’t thank Amanda enough.

Hi - I'm Lizzie! I am a story teller and professional hype woman who is dedicated to preserving your legacy through imagery. It is a privilege being trusted to photograph your wedding and it is not a responsibility that I accept lightly. I truly believe that the only things left after your wedding day are the photos and the marriage. Every couple has a unique story. I take the time to get to know my clients so that I can capture their wedding day in an honest and personalized way. I will work side-by-side with your wedding planner in order to create a custom, photo-friendly timeline that will ensure that my team captures every moment.

I spent a lot of time deliberating which photographer to choose. Lizzie Baker’s work really stood out. Her photography is truly a work of art and the passion comes across not only in her pictures but in how she engages with you end to end. Lizzie was one of my favorite vendors to work with and she truly made our wedding day better. We are delighted with how she captured our wedding, the scenery, and all the details and moments that you want to be able to look back on. Lizzie was always one step ahead of the program which was a huge benefit. She had great ideas for shots and her approach and personality kept us at ease during the planning process and throughout wedding day. Lizzie is not just an amazing photographer - she really is your hype woman, wedding day extraordinaire, and someone you will be happy to have at your side.

I am a Long Island based Wedding & Portrait Photographer that loves a good adventure. I'm the guy who just truly enjoys being behind a camera. I definitely think I got into photography because my Mom always was behind a camera. Most of the time she was the team Mom, and was frequently seen on the sidelines snapping photos of everything she could. It was her interest in photography that led me to appreciate what it takes to create a beautiful photograph.

We can’t recommend Mike enough! Upon initially seeing his work, we had our hearts set on booking him as our photographer and literally based our date on his availability. The entire process, from the initial meeting, to the engagement shoot, drafting a wedding day timeline, and the day itself, was seamless. Both our engagement photos and wedding photos are stunning and we are so in love with them. We’ll be making every excuse to use Mike as our photographer in the future! - Jaclyn and Mike June 22, 2024

I love creating beautiful, custom wedding henna! From intricate, elaborate bridal mehndi designs to speedy, satisfying designs for guests, I love it all. I have studied Indian, North African, and Middle Eastern henna design in depth, and am happy to create designs in a broad range of strictly traditional styles, or to combine traditional patterns with more individualized, unique elements for a customized henna experience.

Awarded Best of Zola
I'd first met Heather at a Rhode Island PrideFest, and instantly saw how much talent she had. Every piece she did looked amazing, her precision was immaculate. I went to her several times over the years, and when my now wife and I began planning our wedding, I brought up the idea of having wedding henna done. My wife agreed, and I knew immediately that I needed to contact Heather. We met up with her at a nearby farm where she was holding a henna event, and she sat with us discussing what we would like done for the wedding for probably a half-hour or so. She sketched design ideas out, which we loved, and made a contract right then and there. Our wedding henna was stunning. We received so many compliments on it that night, and repeatedly after as it lasted beautifully for quite some time. We still get comments if someone sees wedding photos. Throughout the entire process, Heather was a dream to work with. Very kind and professional, she is exactly the caring presence a stressed bride-to-be needs.

Hi I'm Andrew! I first started filming weddings when my sister got married in 2017. I quickly fell in love with the entire process and getting to know all the couples and their guests. Maybe I'm just a hopeless romantic haha (My guilty pleasure is Hallmark movies, once I walk in the room with it on I have to see how it ends!).

Awarded Best of Zola
We had Magical Multimedia be our videographer for our wedding and my husband and I could not be more impressed! Andrew and his second shooter were very nice and helped make suggestions to create great clips for the film. They captured the key parts of our special day and seamlessly wove it together to create a video that showed the highlights as well as the entirety of our ceremony, first dance, and toasts. Andrew went above and beyond by surprising us with a tablet that was placed in a cover that had our wedding photo on it. Now we can reminisce on our special day any time we want. If you're looking for a videographer, then look no further because this guy is the best!

Awarded Best of Zola
From the very beginning, Karl was such a pleasure to work with. Finding a great band for our wedding was our top priority. We were a little apprehensive about pulling the trigger on any band without seeing them live, since videos don’t necessarily do the band justice. We made the decision to go with PopStyle almost entirely because Karl was so responsive and a great communicator. 6 months later, when it came time to iron out details, Karl was consistently professional and put us at ease. Knowing we could trust him to handle everything on his end was invaluable. Obviously we were a bit preoccupied on the day of our wedding, but from what we could tell everything was so smooth. They took care of setting up for our ceremony with a variety of mics and speakers for our officiant, readers, and processional/recessional music. They seamlessly transitioned to the cocktail hour (different location), then introduced our first dance plus family dances, and kicked off the dancing with so much enthusiasm. We absolutely adored their performance. They got everyone out on the dance floor! There were also times when a few of them came out onto the dance floor to really engage the crowd. It was awesome and unexpected. Each band member that I personally interacted with could not have been nicer. They all seemed so genuinely happy to be there celebrating with us. It didn’t feel like a client/vendor dynamic. Additionally, every other vendor we spoke with told us what a pleasure it was to work with PopStyle. Overall, we would 100% book PopStyle again for any event. If you are considering them at all, I would look no further. They exceeded our expectations in every category

My name is Melissa Kelly! I am a Boston Metrowest based wedding photographer! I live in Grafton, MA with my wonderful husband and my two energetic boys! Photography has been a family hobby for my entire life! My father and I have always shared a special bond over our creative and artistic side and my maternal grandfather even had a dark room IN his home! It's in my blood! I am so excited to be able to share my passion with others!

Both my engagement photos and wedding photos were taken by Melissa! Honestly, she was the best! (And it should be noted, I am picky with pictures haha) While "wedding planning" some people recommended I hire a videographer, but with Melissa's photos I didn't even need one! She captures every moment, even ones you didn't realize were being captured. It's like reliving my day every time I look at these photos. There is a lot of beauty in her editing, lighting, and angles. She gives you pose ideas too for those who are a little camera-awkward. Plus I got sooooo much positive feedback from wedding guest about how much they loved her the night of the wedding due to her amazing, fun personality, but then when they saw the outcome of the photos afterwards, everyone including my husband and I were (even more) impressed. I absolutely recommend Photography By Melissa Kelly. You will get beautiful photos and memories a genuine kind person to hang out with on your special day :) I honestly can't thank her enough, hands down!

I have been photographing couples for nearly 10 years and have loved every minute of it. I have enjoyed following them through engagement, wedding, maternity and now family sessions. I have even become life long friends with some of them. I am a mother of 3 and have always loved art, and once I picked up my camera and found a way to tell others love stories, I knew I found what I was supposed to do.

We hired Michelle for our wedding and wow... where do I start?? Michelle and her assistant were INCREDIBLE! They were super friendly, thoughtful, funny, helpful and just made us feel incredible comfortable! My husband and I are shy people who do not like to be the center of attention and do not like to get our pictures taken, so we were both anxious about it. As soon as they started, we ended up actually having so much fun, laughing and having a great time getting our pictures taken! I have seen a few sneak peeks and am already in tears at how beautifully they turned out. I CANNOT wait to see how the others turned out! We will 100% be working with her again in the future! Thank you Michelle for the wonderful memories! Definitely do not hesitate and hire Valley Images Photography for your next event, you will not regret it!

After 10 years and over 200 weddings, I know how to fold into a large group of people, how to be there and make it feel like I'm not. I've been documenting weddings for nearly a decade and I love it even more now than when I started. My work is candid, emotional, and comfortable. I love to infuse editorial and documentary moments into my galleries, but mostly I just love to be able to photograph moments as they unfold.

Melissa was really fun to work with. Claudia was nervous and Melissa helped her feel more at ease. Claudia and I love all the photos she took, the ones she posed us and the ones we improvised.

Hey hey!! SO STOKED you're here! My name's Lennie! I'm based in Portland, OR but have been documenting engagements + tiny weddings all over the country since 2017. I'm a hardcore introverted enneagram 9 and am obsessed with my doggo, my husband, and all things travel!

Picking a photographer is not an easy task but once I saw Lennie's Instagram and realized she had done one of my favorite family photo shoots of my sister-in-law and her family, I knew it had to be her. After meeting her and going over wedding details I knew there wasn’t a better photographer for us out there. Lennie made us feel so comfortable on our wedding day and during our engagement shoot. She had fun games to play that made for the cutest pictures. She is very responsive and quick to answer emails and was willing to do whatever she could to make sure I got everything I needed day of photographed. I truly couldn’t imagine the photos being any better and we’ve only received the sneak peek so far. Even the second shooter was super sweet and friendly. Our photos were the most important thing to us and Lennie exceeded ALL expectations, truly blew them out of the water and we are forever grateful to her and her talent! I'd post our entire engagement and wedding album if I could and I could write a book about how amazing she is!

But even if none of those things apply to you, don't worry, we'll probably still get along just fine. I'm a wedding photographer, originally from Boston, but also living just north of Miami now. When I'm not in those two locations, I'm living my Carmen Sandiego dream by exploring the rest of the globe one city at a time. If you ever need advice on how to pack just a carry-on for a two-week trip abroad in a cold-climate country, I can help with that. Death before checked baggage, amirite? Let's be friends.

I had been following Danielle’s work for a long time and I couldn’t wait for her to shoot my wedding!! To say she went above and beyond is an understatement. She made me feel comfortable and beautiful, was organized, fun, and creative. We never felt rushed. She even helped pin boutonnieres and flag down family members for the after ceremony photo shoot! She captured all the decor, every important moment of the day as well as plenty of awesome candids. It was wonderful to see the day through her lens and you can tell how passionate she is with her work. We will surely cherish these photos for a lifetime. I would recommend her to anyone!!

Hi! My name is Sara. The last couple years of my photography career has allowed me to travel to new places which I have always wanted to do. Photography has allowed me to travel to Georgia, Florida, Missouri, Kentucky, Virgina, Connecticut Louisiana, and in July will be Oregon, and January 2025 will be Washington. I have been professionally doing photography for 3+ years. Somedays it doesn’t feel real I get to travel & meet all of you amazing people & capture all of these special moments for you. I never take it for granted. I love capturing all of the details, candid’s and the in between during your wedding day.

Sara’s photography skills are unmatched! She made every effort to get all of the shots that I wanted during my elopement and was so kind and understanding! I could not be happier with the beautiful moments that she captured so perfectly. I will definitely be booking with her again when photography needs arise!

Makeup Artist Caitlin

I'm a bridal makeup artist based in NYC/ Long Island. Makeup Artistry has been my passion for many years and nothing gives me more joy than bringing to life the vision someone has for their special day.

Caitlin did an amazing job. To begin with, she was very sweet, communicative, and helpful in the early part of the process. I do not wear a lot of makeup and don't know much about it, but she guided me through every step, even outlining the sorts of searches I could on Pinterest to find examples I liked. She made me feel confident that she understood what I was comfortable with even though we could not have a pre-bridal appointment due to distance. Then, on day of, Caitlin went above and beyond. She arrived ahead of schedule, brought everything she needed, provided lots of goodies, attention and skincare, and delivered a stellar makeup. To note, it was an insanely hot and humid summer day in New York (91 degrees and 85% humidity). I don't know what magic Caitlin worked on my face, but the makeup stayed on ALL DAY AND NIGHT. It was so astounding that almost every single guest commented on it (everyone else was sweating their faces off—sorry!). I looked like an elevated version of myself and was so so happy with it. Thank you for being such a key part of a great day, Caitlin!

When you choose Showcase Sound you will be able to relax knowing we are with you every step of the way. From the planning process to your wedding night we will ensure that your wedding is fun, unique and exactly the way you want it.

If I could give more than 5 stars I would. I used Showcase Sound for DJ, photo booth and the Led dance floor for my son's Bar Mitzvah. I already knew they were great but WOW! They kept the dance floor packed from the beginning to the very end. I had guests commenting all night (and after) how amazing they were. They kept the kids entertained and EVERYONE danced all night long. They responded quickly whenever I had a question. We had the most amazing evening. I cannot recommend Showcase enough.

Hi! I'm Kristen. I'm a wedding, boudoir, and portrait photographer who loves to make people laugh, connect with each other, and feel beautiful in their own skin. Based in New Milford, CT and serving Connecticut and beyond. Questions? DM me on Instagram!

Kristen did my engagement photos and will also be doing my wedding! She has been so flexible, patient, responsive, and understanding this entire process. My fiancé and I were both nervous the day of the shoot but Kristen was such a ray of sunshine she had us so comfortable and laughing the entire time! We were worried that we were going to stand there awkwardly but she walked us through the entire shoot. She really took her time with us and then was so excited to upload and edit our photos that she had them done within the next few days. I couldn’t recommend her more! Thank you Kristen!!

Hi friend! Grace here. I’m from a small town in south-central PA, where I was raised on the great outdoors, drive-in movies, & board games. My husband is my best friend & we have an adorable toddler keeping us on our toes! We're all about Jesus, our people, traveling, coffee shops & our two Aussies. I’m a big advocate of seeing new places, deep talks under the stars & being near the mountains any chance I can get. I believe that marriage begins with a promise & a lifetime of memories follow after that. My clients are my friends & I feel privileged to begin this adventure with you!

I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer. She was sooo easy to work with. Her visions aligned with mine, she was efficient and so sweet. I truly trusted her with everything in me and she did not disappoint! She traveled across the country for us and was a 10/10 human being and professional photographer. You need her!!

I am a destination wedding & elopement photographer + planner based in New Mexico. I am originally from the small college town of Lexington, Kentucky, but before long my family moved to Toronto, Canada. Fast forward a handful of years, we moved to Nashville where I finished up elementary school and attended high school. I graduated from UTK in the spring of May 2020 with a BS in marketing and a collateral in entrepreneurship. After graduation I moved down to Florida to be with my partner who is stationed in the area and this past year we got moved to NM! I am an avid traveler & learner!

Audrey is the best. She went above and beyond for my wedding which seemed so natural that she must do it for all. We had 3 phone calls since we lived far away. Ahead of the wedding she put together detailed timelines for myself and all those involved. We made edits together and we explored different package options. I had a large wedding where my Husband and I were getting ready at different locations, a Catholic Church Ceremony and a different location for reception. Audrey managed with ease. She has the calmest demeanor and the best art came from the day. I received “Sneak Peaks” of almost 80 photos within 2 days which was a shock to me. Upon opening them, the photographs were so beautiful we couldn’t even believe these were from our day. I HIGHLY recommend Audrey for your wedding. Big or Small, Formal or Informal. She is the girl. BTW her second shooter, Lauren quite literally saved our wedding ceremony when I forgot the rings. Lauren tracked down the limo driver and delivered the rings discreetly to the alter!

My name is Cecilia but you can call me Cece. I'm so happy you are here. I'm married to the love of my life and together we have three rambunctious little boys. I'm based in Utah and I LOVE traveling. If your wedding is out of state I would love to come to you. I have always found joy in taking photos. It wasn't until I got pregnant with my first child that I developed a strong passion for photography. When I'm not taking pictures I enjoy exercising, reading books, and hanging out with my family & friends

She did such a great job; she listened to us and got all the must-have photos we needed. Cece also kept the party going by having a fun time with us and capturing all of our guests' fun.
