Photos of the intangible: from moments of stillness to bursts of joy. What does love look like? A client once told me that I captured things in their wedding photos that until then they had only ever felt. I saw this as the ultimate compliment. My goal in every session is to do just that: Turn an intangible feeling into a tangible image that will make your heart soar every time you see it. But what does love look like?

Brooke is so flexible and easy to work with, she really has an eye for bringing your vision to light! I would never think to hire another photographer... wonderful person who shoots wonderful photos, 10000/10!

  • Serves Schenectady, NY for additional fees

You know those first few months that you fall in love & everything is so wonderful & terrifying & just so damn GOOD? It's that “new love” feeling & I’ve never been able to replicate that feeling with anything else, except photography. Your wedding day tells the story of your love. From that “new love” to the more comfortable kind, it is the culmination of all those moments leading up to “I do.” I consider myself the narrator of that day, telling that story and documenting your connection through my photographs.

Jenny Lebron is MA-GI-CAL!! She did our engagement photographs and they looked like something straight out of a magazine. My fiancé and I are a bit camera shy but she made us feel SUPER comfortable taking such intimate pictures. She was happy to direct the shoot when necessary but also encouraged us to share and try our own creative ideas to make the pictures super personal. She is such a kind person and I couldn't think of a more perfect photographer for us. I would (and do) recommend her to anyone who is looking their wedding photographer.

When my husband and I were looking into wedding entertainment, we wanted a band that would keep everyone on the dance floor all night long. As two Penn Staters, who couldn't have had a better fit than My Hero Zero. Everyone we worked with, from their management team, to the band itself was amazing. We couldn't have asked for a better band, the dance floor was packed the entire time and people commented how it was the most fun wedding they had every been too. Working with Angel, their manager, was a breeze. She helped to coordinate everything from ceremony music, cocktail hour and even the playlist during the band's intermission. Jason was great at all of the emcee aspects of a wedding and all of the Penn State tie ins, from fight songs to Zombie Nation was exactly what we wanted. We didn't feel like we were at a wedding, we felt like we were at a concert! Each member of the band is so talented, we couldn't have been happier with the decision to have My Hero Zero perform at our wedding, would hire them 10 times out of 10!

Tonya's work is unbelievable. The fog that rolled in for our ceremony made it hard to see just a few feet in front of us, but her pictures came out stunning. She's a great communicator, detail-oriented and really made us feel comfortable in front of the camera. She sent us a day-of timeline and helped plan out what photos we would like in advance.

Booking Rachel Stenger was one of the best vendor decisions that my husband and I made for our wedding day. Even from the first meeting we had with Rachel, she has such a calming and warm presence which we knew was what we would need the day of. She has such a unique way of photographing and capturing moments that make her so special and unlike a lot of other wedding photographers we met with. We did an engagement session with her and she made us feel so at ease, like most couples we're not naturally in front of the camera but she was able to easily talk us through poses throughout the session. We had a call the month of to discuss details with her - e.i, timeline, shot list, etc. This was a great call because it helped all of us get on the same page for day of. Forwarding to the wedding day - Rachel arrived early to start on capturing details. She helped us stay on-time during getting ready and first look since my DoC was at the venue setting up. She was able to capture SO many images throughout the day from getting ready all the way to the dance floor. Aside from the staged/traditional photos you'd expect from the wedding, she captured so many beautiful candid moments. She moved in SILENCE, I truly didn't see her for most of the day (in a good way!) yet we ended up with 750 images in the 7 hrs we hired her for. She captured everything and more. When we finally got the full album - my husband and I spent had an amazing 2 hours reliving every single moment! She blew us away and we were not prepared by how beautifully she captured the day - all of the details, the emotions, and the aesthetics, were EVERYTHING! Her talent is remarkable and we couldn't have asked for anything more. I'd recommend her to anyone - in fact, I already have a friend that's hired her for their day.

I like to think of myself as a lil bit southern, lil bit punk, and a whole lotta rock-n-roll. I’m a PBR lover, hardcore show corner dweller, disco ball queen. You’re going to hear me say, “hell yeah, brother” more than twice, Dale Earnhardt is an icon, and Dolly Parton is royalty. You'll love me if you're a little trashy, always classy, badass, sometimes chic, forever romantic. Unwedding, editorial, nontraditional, offbeat, colorful, joyful, film-inspired, and disco vibes always. If you like, I'll wear a rainbow suit, I'll definitely dance with your mom, and I will always be a champion for you and your lover.

Kathleen is AMAZING. She did our engagement photos and I cannot speak highly enough. She was so cool to work with, had a great eye for location, and was so fantastic with coordinating our forever-awkward selves to get some incredible shots. We both get very anxious on camera but she made the whole experience so safe and welcoming that we ended up having a so much fun. Her communication throughout has been absolute top tier - we knew exactly what to expect every step of the way - and the end result is beyond our wildest dreams. 10/10, cannot recommend her enough and can’t wait to work with her again in the future!

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!

Swiger Photography was the only vendor we didn’t have to think about. Having previously worked with Amanda during a mini-session we knew right away that we had to book her. We felt comfortable with her posing, free to be ourselves and completely respected. Nothing was ever pushed on us to try to “up sell” and we never felt we were getting handled or ignored. We’re really lucky to have had Amanda and her team there to celebrate with us on our wedding day and are crazy lucky to now call them friends. We love Swiger Photography!

We found Sufia through a recommendation from another Central Florida photographer, and we're so glad that we crossed paths with her! We booked her for our small wedding in March of 2021, and shortly after that booking we had engagement photos done. She had perfect recommendations for locations that would fit us, and was also so sweet and patient with our pup that we brought along for the morning too. Even in the super humid Florida weather, we had a great time doing our session and we loved the pictures- They're hanging in our house now! Once our wedding rolled around, Sufia and her partner for the day were lovely to work with- My husband and I are both pretty introverted, but they made the environment relaxing and fun. Sufia found ways to inject little pieces of our life into the final photos, which is so special to get to look back on- Even managing to get in some fun pictures with our very young nieces and nephews, which is no small feat with so many personalities in play. I loved our experiences so much, and actually booked her again just this month for some couple photos to commemorate a personal event. Of course the logistical things are important- she's prompt, professional, and the quality of her work is wonderful- but on top of that, she's simply a great individual with a warm, kind energy, and a genuine desire to gift others with memories of their most special days. If you have the opportunity to work with her, do it!

Kenny and her team were so helpful! They are professional, organized, kind and went above and beyond for us. We did day of coordination and Kenny jumped in about a month out, taking care of all vendor communications and creating a timeline for us. She kept everything running smoothly the morning of the wedding and made sure everything and everyone were where they needed to be. She set up the reception decor exactly as I had envisioned it. Also kept our timeline on track during the reception. Truly can’t imagine how we would’ve made it through the day without her!

Kie Thurman Photography

  • Photographer

  • Serves Schenectady, NY for additional fees

Hi there!! I'm Kie, pronounced like pie. I've been a photographer of some sort for nearly a decade, but weddings didn't come into my life until 2020 (perfect timing!!), it's become my personality trait and I truly don't think I could love doing anything more than this. Some things about me: I prefer series over movies (Gossip Girl, The Office, Buffy TVS, How I Met Your Mother are some of my faves), I'm nothing if not a Paramore fan, I love cute and cheesy romance novels, and I think I am hilarious. I love being your #1 hype girl, joining the party at the reception, and making you comfortable on your big day :)

We will rave about our experience with Kie for the rest of our lives! She is an absolute angel and has exceeded every expectation we have! We booked Kie for our wedding and she did our engagement photos as well! Her work is pure art and absolutely breathtaking. She is one of the most talented photographers we have come across. Not only will her work be the photos of your dreams, but she is such a remarkable person to work with! Kie is so kind, fun, and outgoing, she is very personable and makes you feel comfortable being in front of a camera (like it’s not even there). One comment that my husband made after our first session with Kie for engagement photos, was that it felt like going on a date, we enjoyed ourselves so much, it was really fun and light-hearted. From the very beginning, she was nothing short of amazing! She is flexible with scheduling and was super willing to travel almost 5 states away to photograph our wedding! She was always on time and never skipped a beat! The one thing that we really looked for in a photographer was someone who captures the raw, pure moments, rather than being posed for every picture. Kie does exactly that, you can feel the life and soul in every picture she captures, her photos are better than your pinterest inspiration and will be the art on your wall you will cherish forever. We will definitely be using her for all of our future photography needs and we will definitely be recommending her to anyone and everyone. Thank you so much Kie! God has blessed you with an amazing gift and talent!

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.

"As the mother of a bride who was getting married during pandemic restrictions that caused us to limit our guests, it was vitally important to me to capture the wedding day on video for those who couldn't attend. I can hardly believe how beautifully they captured the day. They paid attention to all the little details and the video so perfectly captures the joy and celebration of the day." Bridget Ballenger

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!).

We used Andrew for our Joshua Tree wedding in September 2020. Like many covid weddings it was very stressful. Andrew was very reliable and put us at ease. We absolutely love our video. He did a wonderful job of capturing the day and all the important memories. Would highly recommend!!

Club trained with over 1000 Weddings experience, there's no one better to make the formal parts of your day great and then keep your dance floor LIT. My mantra: 'I Make It So Good No One Wants The Day To End'

I would highly recommend Wedding Pro DJ's. Robert is easy to work with as he has so much experience. He is organized and professional. He takes care of details that I've never seen other DJ's do. Everyone gets his undivided attention in planning as he truly cares that your special day is the best and memorable. He does lovely presentations of family members and guests. I'm often asked to stay for the reception and I love his ability to pack a dance floor.
