Keith MacDonald Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From the very first interaction, his communication was clear, transparent and made us feel comfortable. The quality of their work exceeded our expectations - he captured every shot we had envisioned, even when we unexpectedly had to shoot our first look in rain and sneak the bridal party photos in during then too. Keith made us so comfortable during our photo sessions, helping us feel at ease despite our natural discomfort in front of the camera. Keith has a true talent for seeing through that and capturing us exactly as we had hoped. He is a one-of-a-kind photographer, and we are thrilled with the beautiful memories he was able to create for us on our special day. I would recommend Keith to absolutely everyone and would book him again in a heart beat.

  • Serves Schenectady, NY

You want to capture the heartfelt, milestone moments – but also the head-thrown-back laughter and the ease of your connection. You want photos that look like art but feel exactly like you. You’re in the right place. I’ll never stop being sentimental about the simple beauty of people living, celebrating, and loving. I’m endlessly inspired by the way life unfolds when people are just being themselves.

Claudia is FANTASTIC. Her photos are beautiful and natural. No stiff, awkward wedding photos that you feel like you see all the time. She is a true artist and awesome to work with. She made this somewhat camera-shy couple feel at ease, and we are so proud of the pictures we got for our perfect day. We heartily recommend her services, you won't regret it for one second!

Jose Almeida Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,600
  • Serves Schenectady, NY

Weddings are celebrations that are full of emotion and romance all in a highly dynamic environment. Wedding photographs are timeless and irreplaceable so as a photographer, I feel I have a great responsibility at hand. I try my best to work with clients on their needs, provide flexible coverage hours and I work within their budgets. I am drawn to those unguarded candid moments. I attempt to portray an artistic feel that reveals feelings of emotion onto the viewer. Be it a gaze, a beaming smile, tears of joy or a blurred image to depict movement my goal is communication. It is these moments along with many others I feel should be captured.

Jose is fantastic! He has so much experience and very professional. Before our wedding day, he always had quick and clear communication. We loved his artistic eye and dramatic style of photography. He knows how to give good direction for those that aren’t used to posing or being photographed, and was always looking for the next shot. He definitely lets you be you and can still get amazing shots. We were surprised at how quickly we got to preview our gallery. After the wedding day, I realized that there was so much I didn’t get to document personally to remember the details from that day. But after seeing some of the shots, Jose had made me so happy to see how much he documented from the day! I highly recommend Jose :)

Amber is without a doubt an extremely talented photographer. My only complaint is that all of my pictures were amazing! There was not one I did not like. She is detail oriented, organized and fun to wok with. She was in touch with me leading up to the wedding, during and after to make sure the entire process went smoothly. She got my pictures back to me very quickly. I cannot say enough good things about her. Your wedding lasts one day but your pictures last a lifetime. Make sure they are memorable. With Amber they will be.

I’m Donna Marie—the introverted, hella awkward + nerdy, all about the vibes and adventure(ish) soul that you can typically find behind the camera (rather than in front of it). I'm here to serve + empower all the introverted, awkward in-front-of-the-lens, adventure(ish) couples who want to have an authentic, non-traditional wedding experience across upstate and northern New York.

I’m your go-to gal when you decide to take control of your wedding day.

Donna Marie Photo Co. was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding photography. Donna's communication was top-notch - she was available for questions and planning every step of the way in the months leading up to our big day. On the wedding day itself, Donna rolled with the punches when our schedule got a bit delayed but still managed to capture all the moments beautifully. Most importantly, the quality of the photos is truly amazing. Donna managed to take artistic shots that perfectly encapsulated the style and emotion of our wedding. The final edited photos were delivered promptly. We could not recommend Donna highly enough for wedding photography services - her professionalism, flexibility and amazing talent made our photos everything we hoped for and more to document our special day.

When I'm not taking photos you may find me mountaineering, playing an accordion or piano, tending to my tiny house and tiny garden or riding my bike here, there, and ev'ry where. Also, I'm afraid of gum.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot say enough great things about Lindsay as our wedding photographer. She has such a talent for capturing emotion and truly telling the story of your wedding day through her photos. So many of her photos bring me right back to how I was feeling in those moments. She shoots a perfect blend of traditional portraits and the candid "in-between" memories. She captures details and moments that you never even realized she was there to catch. During the formal portraits she does a great job helping you feel comfortable and giving posing directions. However, I truly think she stands apart because of her ability to capture “real” moments and be discreet during parts of the day where she isn't explicitly giving direction, while still getting every aspect you could want (e.g. during the ceremony, dance floor, etc.). She has some angles of our ceremony that I still don’t know how she was able to capture them, we didn’t even notice she was right there! Her work truly speaks for itself. I am so very grateful that we chose her to photograph our wedding and that we have continued to work with her in the years since our wedding for our maternity, newborn and family photos. Lindsay has truly become a friend in the process of being our wedding photographer. I recommend her to all of my friends who are planning their weddings and I look forward to working with her in the future.

In addition to how talented she is, she brought a sense of calm and joy to the day. Her friendly demeanor and approach made us feel like we were in the best hands possible. We couldn't have asked for a more dedicated and compassionate photographer to be a part of our celebration.

Hey there, I'm Joy! Years from now when you look at your wedding photographs, I want all of the memories and emotions to come flooding back: the joy, the love, and the laughter. It’s so easy to live our lives, missing the sweetest moments because how quickly they fly by. Those sweet in-between moments that can be so easily missed are my favorite to capture. Whether it be your candid smiles, the tears shed on your wedding day, or your beautiful family laughing together, I find joy in capturing you being YOU!

Joy made us feel special and relaxed in the midst of a hectic day. She captured our love so beautifully and delivered photos that looked effortless and natural, which is exactly what we wanted! So much of that is owed to her encouraging words off-camera that made the environment feel comfortable even while being photographed. She wholeheartedly lives up to her name and brought sunshine to our already bright day!

Hi, Thanks for reading! Here's my photography short story: 2017, after 13 years of teaching, I said goodbye to the classroom and pursued Olympic weightlifting photography- my company was Everyday Lifters. Shortly after, I launched my wedding business. The Long Version: Weightlifting has taken me to places like Turkmenistan, Germany, & across the country! The weightlifters started getting married, and along the way, I received training to advocate for diverse bodies as a photographer. During this time of transition, I started taking documenting courses through the International Center of Photography and work on documenting local stories.

Equality matters. Black Lives Matter. Trans & Womens rights are human rights. Science is real. No human is illegal. Love is love. Period.
