We are a married couple of photographers. Within years of career, we discovered what’s really matters - we want to make people happy. Weddings have it all: new interesting people, touching stories, warm family relationships, tears. A lot of tears! Oh, don’t forget dances and sparklers! So, it’s fun! 🙂 Also, we love weddings because it’s the most challenging kind of photography in the field, it combines all the genres. It make you think, move and react quickly in constantly changing surrounding. We have no room for mistakes. So It’s never boring! 🙂

Millie Elangbam Photography

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $7,000
  • Serves South Ozone Park, NY

Hi, my name is Millie! I picked up a camera 11 years ago and I've been wholeheartedly devoted to this craft ever since. Through photography, I've come to understand that the meaningful connections I form with others hold a special significance for me and should be documented. My journey has naturally directed me toward wedding photography, enabling me to translate your love into art. To me, nothing compares to distilling love into photographs.

Best word to describe Millie…UNMATCHED! Millie has been so responsive from DAY 1. She photographed our engagement session back in April 2023. She was just as invested in checking the weather for that weekend as much as I was! She made the experience so seemless and the photos came out effortlessly and captured our love even though we were camera shy. Aside from being our photographer for our engagment session - she also photographed our wedding recently (June 2024) and through our numerous video calls she made a timeline! This was so helpful with planning! We received our gallery in such a short period of time that I was in such disbelief. I lived the photos and our story she captured - I will forever be grateful!

Hey! I'm Jess, the owner of the company that's named after me - shocking, right? I'm from the suburbs of Philly but now live up in the mountains of Northeast PA in Montrose, right on the border of Central NY. I'm married to a woodworker (who HAD to be the inspiration behind Ron Swanson because they're the same human), we live on 25 acres with three huge dogs (2 Golden Retrievers and one Great Pyrenees) and three ducks - and I'm constantly begging for more animals. I'm outgoing, sarcastic & humorous, and I love organization/cleaning, sushi, reading, The Office, and traveling everywhere I can.

Jess is a master of her craft and we could not imagine having chosen anyone else to capture our wedding day. Working with Jess is like working with a close friend — she immediately made us feel comfortable in front of the camera, helping us pose (and making us laugh) for shots that truly blow our minds and fill our hearts. She expertly captured our individual personalities and dynamic as a couple, the vibrant color of our event, and the energy and happiness that filled the room. We are indescribably happy and grateful to have worked with such a talented, thoughtful, hilarious, and creative human to make the memories of our wedding day last forever in her incredible photographs.

I hired Chef Ellen for a dinner party that I was hosting for 20 people, and she absolutely EXCEEDED my expectations. From our first call about planning the event, to the event itself, Chef Ellen was fantastic. She has such an impressive rolodex of appetizers and meals she can prepare, and she worked with me to customize a perfect menu for the evening. We chose 5 hors d'oeuvres, and she surprised me on the night with two additional ones on top of the five we'd chosen! Every single appetizer was delicious. From there, we did a sit down dinner that included a soup (amazing butternut squash), salad (the best salad my guests have ever had - who knew a salad could be that life changing!), and then guests had a choice of filet mignon or arctic char for their main course. Both main courses were so thoughtfully prepared, perfectly cooked, and the presentation for everything was stunning. On top of that, there was a mini pizza delivery crisis for my 5 and 7 year old nephews who were over, and Chef Ellen graciously offered to make pasta for them -- all while preparing a 20-person dinner. What more could you ask for?! After dinner, she also surprised me with mini passed desserts :) Chef Ellen also had brought a server with her, who was professional, charismatic and on top of everything to ensure the night went smoothly. To sum it up, Chef Ellen helped make the night so special, and I was thrilled with all of her hard work. If you're looking for delicious food, beautiful presentation, great service, and a hell of a personality, don't hesitate to book Chef Ellen. I am so glad I found her and am already looking forward to having her back for another event!

Sandy Soohoo is a dream. She is extremely talented and creative, knowledgeable about the industry, realistic about the challenges, reliable and responsive- all while being a joyous energy and pleasure to be around. For those reasons, I couldn't have imagined a better photographer for our wedding - or person to be by my side throughout that entire day and evening. She works with a variety of mediums (lens, cameras, flash/no flash) to obtain a variety of styles for the photos, which all turned out unique and fully capturing different "perspectives" of the event - and most importantly, capturing the true essence of the joy and outward and inner beauty of the wedding. The photos turned out beautiful, have this journalistic yet ethereal feel- an artistic quality which I believe is a rare skill. I'm so thankful for having worked with Sandy!!

Taylored Events & Co. is a wedding and special event planning company operating out of New York, New York. Owner and lead planner Taylor draws on years of rich experience in orchestrating a number of special celebrations to provide clients with exceptional experiences.

Awarded Best of Zola
When we say Taylor EXCEEDED our expectations, we truly mean that. From start to finish Taylor was such a calming and supportive presence in our lives. During the planning portion of our event, Taylor communicated with all of our vendors and made sure we were always on the same page. She was organized and had all of our contracts, seating charts, floor plans etc all in one google doc making it extremely easy to follow and stay on track. She was always responsive and answered every single question we could possibly have. As the wedding got closer, we had weekly calls to make sure we tied up any loose ends and that all the vendors were on the same page. The wedding day was beyond perfect. Taylor looked like a boss woman the whole time with her clipboard and made sure that she was keeping everyone in line and on track of time. There were a few times when things didn’t go as planned like having to move the ceremony inside due to rain and changing the floorpan last minute but she handled that with STRIDE. She made all the executive decisions and explained them to us calmly. We trusted that no matter what, she would make the best decision for us in the end and she 100% did! Everything ended up working out better than planned and we will be talking about this day for years to come. At the end of the event, Taylor helped all the vendors pack everything up and out of the venue and made sure that nothing was left behind. We could not recommend her enough as your wedding planner. She is strong, resilient and intelligent. She is organized, reliable and knows exactly what she is doing! You can really see how much she loves what she does and how she strives to be the best she can be every step of the way. Shout out to her assistant Joy for everything she had her hands on, including being so delicate and gentle while steaming my heavy wedding dress and taking some incredible behind the scenes shots of our day and for just being another amazing person to rely on. We couldn’t have asked for a better team!!!!

Hi there! I’m Emma CotéEwers, your East Coast & Destination Wedding and Lifestyle Photographer! My work is a seamless blend of traditional heirloom portraiture, lively artistic shots, and a little ​photojournalism if the day calls for it. With a true-to-color, film-inspired approach, I strive to craft visuals that capture love, ​laughter, and those beautifully authentic moments that weave together the story of your ​wedding! I feel like these should include fun ​facts? Patsy Cline’s Walkin’ After Midnight is my favorite song and I am currently on my 8th ​nostalgic binge of Gilmore Girls (which might just be fueling my banter lately).

Emma is literally the kindest soul you’ll ever meet and my pictures came out so well! I’m plus size girls, so I felt very nervous about getting my pictures taken. She made me feel so confident and so loved in such a small amount of time. The photos are breathtaking and she is willing to do anything to get the perfect shot! You need her if you want the best photos!!

Cooper Union was the absolute BEST wedding band I have ever seen at a wedding (yes, I may be a little biased as it was my wedding, but this is also what all my friends and fam said as well!). Brennan played and sang several songs on the piano for the ceremony, and it really made the ceremony special. He took our special requests, singing everything from The Grateful Dead, to Jack Johnson, to John Legend. His voice is absolutely incredible. And he did all this in 45 degree weather, mind you! We had a 6-piece band for the reception, and our guests absolutely loved them! Everyone was dancing the entire time, and we had an absolute blast! They sounded amazing and had tons of energy (despite the freezing cold). I would definitely recommend that you book them for your wedding! I knew I wanted a live band for my wedding, and Cooper Union exceeded my expectations.

  • Serves South Ozone Park, NY

There is nothing I love more than photographing weddings - a day full of raw emotion and I get to document and make art of out it! I'm a newlywed so I totally get what you're going through! We recently adulted hard and bought a house - next up is a dog! Please tag me in all funny dog videos :) I love occasionally working out, always eating cookies, and watching nonstop romantic comedies - especially while I edit (let's not talk about how many times I've seen Dirty Dancing). Can't wait to meet you!

Absolutely THE BEST! It has been a month after our wedding and looking through our hundreds of wedding pictures just takes us back to that magical day. Michelle does an amazing job as your photographer the day-of but also helps guide you every step of the way during the pre-planning stages. Here's a few reasons why you HAVE to pick Michelle if you connect with her style: *She will make you feel comfortable in front of the lens. We were very unsure as to what to do during our engagement shoot and we definitely did not want our pictures to come out as very posed, stiff or fake. Michelle took care of this in an instant, we got to talk, laugh, tell dad jokes throughout the shoot and our pictures came out like US which is what we truly wanted. The same goes for the day of the wedding, with a 12 person bridal party and multiple family configurations, Michelle was able to make everyone comfortable and naturally pose for our pictures. Not to mention, she was able to organize everyone for the church exit with the rice throw in a matter of minutes! *She will listen to what you want and provide her honest feedback with her years of experience. We were very set of having an engagement shoot in Jersey City not only was it crazy to get there, we got washed out with a huge storm (none the less she got great shots in a matter of 10 minutes!). She suggested we did another try but something more local like where we lived in Morristown. Not only were we more comfortable because we knew where to go, the pictures came out again looking more genuine in our hometown. *She is incredibly professional, takes her job seriously AND has an awesome personality. We got our pictures both for the engagement and wedding within a matter of weeks with some sneak previews the very next day! No watermarks and the possibility of downloading all of them instantly. She does her job with a smile on her face that is just contagious!

Hey, I'm Mary! It's nice to meet you. Summing up who I am in an "about me" is always difficult. What you must know: (1) I'm a nerd. If you want to talk video games, LOTR or Doctor Who, we HAVE to sit down for a bourbon or a coffee. (2) Yes, I will be out on that dance floor with you snapping away while joining in on the fun. And (3), while I'm a photographer first, supporting you during the planning process feels crucial to me - from building a timeline to having your back any way I can.

Having Mary as our wedding photographer was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From our first phone call to engagement photos to the day of she was so helpful, warm, and organized; she made getting the photos we wanted and being where we needed to be at the right time feel so easy and fun.

I'm Raquel, a native New Yorker in the wedding & event industry with about 500 events & counting under my belt. I have a psychology degree and an extensive project management & logistics background. My true passion for all things wedding related along with my professional background have served to bring my wedding planning and coordination expertise to my clients. I've traveled all of NYC, and the surrounding regions, planning & coordinating weddings in every event space there is- from raw spaces, to rooftop venues, NYC Landmarks, high end hotels, and private residences.

Raquel and her team are all-stars. With her full service planning, she asked us for our rough ideas for the wedding and connected us with vendors we meshed with *perfectly* with to turn those rough ideas into a stunning reality. My wife and I cannot say enough good things about Raquel. She kept us on track and was incredibly organized throughout the planning process and clearly communicated all of her expectations to us at each meeting. She was immediately supportive of our non-traditional ideas. We didn't have a single worry during our wedding because we knew Raquel was taking care of everything, and had the whole wedding planned to the minute. She shielded us from the stress of the day, and this allowed us to feel like guests at our wedding rather than stressed out hosts. She was genuinely the first person we hugged after our ceremony was over, because we were so grateful to her and she was so integral to the success of the evening. We cannot imagine our wedding without her!

My wedding day was so hot and he dealt with me being cranky and sweaty and didn’t complain about the heat once. He also gave us over 3k photos to look through which was seriously amazing and it took us forever (in a good way) to go through all of the insanely beautiful shots from our special day. My guests were also talking about how great he was and love the photos so much. 10/10 would recommend!!!!!

Hi there! We're the team behind Duet Photography & Video. We're a collection of wedding photographers, filmmakers, designers, and editors. We each have our own story of how we've come to be a part of this incredibly field of wedding journalism. As individual as we are, we're all bound by the same love for our craft – the artistry of blending documentary journalism with stunning, creative vision. With over a thousand weddings under our collective belts, we've photographed and filmed weddings of every shape and size imaginable. We can't wait to document your wedding as well!

I can’t say enough good things about this company, they were one of the most affordable we found and did an absolutely incredible job for our October wedding. We loved them so much, my sister ended up using them for her August wedding and they did an equally incredible job! I loved their bright, slightly editorial style. One of my vendors (who sees photos all the time) even said my album was one of her favorites! The team was sooo awesome and one of the best parts of the day! Mike was our lead photographer and was so knowledgeable while Adam was our awesome videographer. Yosaidy was our 2nd shooter and she was with my husband getting ready; he said she made the process so smooth and fun (which means a lot from a guy who hates pictures). She also fixed my train and veil in every photo, making sure it looked perfect which I really appreciated. The team made the day seamless and really helped to capture the beauty of our venue. After my husband switched jackets for the reception they made sure to take additional portraits of us which I didn’t even think about! They were able to fix a few issues that came up with sound on the video and were very communicative, definitely would recommend.

  • Serves South Ozone Park, NY

Brent is considered one of the top wedding cinematographers based out of the Northeastern USA. He frequently travels the globe, documenting weddings for couples who deserve the best of the best. After growing up in Central Jersey, Brent chose to move down to Nashville for college and then shortly after graduation, officially founded 550Park out of New York City. He is a passionate tennis player, chef, and world adventurer.

We found 550Park at a wedding show. At the time, I was not looking nor interested in hiring a videographer. Brent asked me to have a look at a highlight reel, and it instantly gave me chills. After some long nights of thinking about this video, we decided we could not live WITHOUT this. We made room in our budget to add this and realized that capturing this day is actually priceless. The first time I watched our highlight reel, it gave me such an adrenaline rush. Our friends had goosebumps and tears. I can't stop watching it. He really caught all the moments that I adored... and barely remember! Everything looked so beautiful, and everyone had so much fun... more than I even realized. We are able to relive and remember the day that took over a year to plan. Brent's filming and editing skills are unsurpassed. The video quality, the extra time he took to capture the beauty of the venue and the scenery, shots of the guests and wedding party along with us (bride and groom). The video was everything we could have ever wanted and so much more. My friends said they wished they would have hired him for their weddings...

My heart lies in finding genuine, fleeting moments that tell your story. Whether it’s the laughter that makes your eyes sparkle or a tender touch that speaks volumes, my goal is simple: to turn your delicate moments into lasting memories—not just the exchange of vows and rings, but also those energetic, wild scenes of your loved ones.

We hired Hannah for our baby's first 100-day photoshoot (Baek-il). Photographing a newborn is no small task, but Hannah made the experience comfortable and enjoyable. Her patience and loving approach with our baby were remarkable. The photos came out amazing, too! Just about everyone who saw the pictures asked about the photographer. I highly recommend Hannah for her outstanding work.

My husband and I have really diverse tastes in music, and the crowd at our wedding was honesty a weird mix, so Ernest and Marlowe had their work cut out for them. Pros: -Had a cool app you could plug all your music into, incredibly detailed. -The MC was an absolute hoot -Tried very hard to get the guests to dance. -Everything was set up in time and looked nice. -Open communication, could accommodate our venue needs. Cons: -(my biggest issue) The DJs phone was hooked up to the ceremony speakers, he got a message as I was walking down the aisle. Funny in retrospect, upsetting at the time. -Would skip songs midway through. Have a very funny video of the groom and groomsmen singing a song and the DJ stopped playing it midway through. -My nephew requested "We Don't Talk About Bruno" and for some reason he played the instrumental version? It was really weird. If you're a really type A bride I wouldn't go for Electrified DJs. If you're planning your wedding like its a big party for you and your guests? Have at it

We are so grateful to have had Amy as our wedding photographer. Not only did she take amazing photos, but she also brought such a joyful and supportive energy to the day, and made what could have been stressful moments very effortless and fun. Every single person who was in our portraits complimented the way she conducted the shoot (one of our friends who is a photographer said she was the most intentional photographer she’s ever seen!) Amy made us, and everyone at our wedding, feel so comfortable in front of the camera, and helped us feel at ease trying different poses and styles that would best reflect our personalities and vibes as a couple. We also received many candid photos that friends took that had Amy smiling in the background - we feel so lucky that we had a photographer who had as much fun on our wedding day as we did! Amy is truly one of a kind and we cannot recommend her enough.

Lensy Michelle Photography

Hi there! I’m Lindsey “Lensy” Michelle (she/her) – a New York City and Boston based wedding and elopement photographer specializing in non-traditional celebrations. My style is a mix of candid and directed coverage that seeks to amplify and celebrate what makes each couple unique.

Awarded Best of Zola
When we first talked about getting married, I was committed to the idea of a city hall wedding. I Googled “Boston elopement photographers” and fell in love with Lindsey’s style months before we even got engaged. We eventually ditched our city hall plans for a small(ish) wedding of 80 people at a restaurant in Cambridge but knew that we still wanted to work with Lindsey. After our intro Zoom call, she was the first vendor we booked even as we were still ironing out our exact date and location! We included a couples/engagement shoot in our wedding package, and I’m so glad we did – having the opportunity to shoot with her ahead of our wedding day put us totally at ease. I know that everyone thinks that they’re awkward in photos, but we’re not a very romantic, affectionate, or “touchy-feely” couple and I was worried about how that would work for wedding-related pictures. Lindsey found a way to keep us laughing (mostly at ourselves lol) during our entire shoot and the photos she took are a perfect reflection of us – we’re not very romantic, but we have so much fun together. On our wedding day, Lindsey and her second shooter Brian were an absolute dream to work with. From the moment they arrived, they made everyone feel comfortable and Lindsey took over running the day and keeping us on time. The locations she scouted for our couples’ photos were STUNNING and it looked like we ventured all over the city when in reality we only traveled a few blocks – her eye for architecture makes her the perfect photographer for city weddings. Every part of the day was seamless – largely due to Lindsey and Brian. They understood the shots that were important to us, stepped back when picture fatigue was setting in, captured our beloved pup from every possible angle during the ceremony, kept us (and our families) laughing all day, and got down on the dance floor while still taking pics! So many of our guests commented on how awesome they were that night, and our nieces (ages 10, 9, and 7) still talk about how much fun they had with them. We loved working with Lindsey and cannot recommend her enough. I keep describing our wedding as pure magic, and Lindsey’s ability to capture the magic and the emotion of the day was beyond our wildest dreams.

Hi! I'm Alëna! I’ve been making videos for over 10 years now. I believe in sucking the joy out of life and documenting it. It’s by immersing myself in travel that my eyes were first opened to videography. Being an adoptee from another country I fell in love with the process of collecting memories. I feel that my exposure to changing environments has allowed me to appreciate things from various perspectives and remain calm and assertive in fast pace situations. Such as weddings! I love capturing different traditions & religions AND of course documenting people in love or breaking the dance floor are my literal favs! Let's freakin' go yeah!?

Awarded Best of Zola
I was on the fence about getting a videographer due to budgetary reasons and not knowing if I would really treasure it compared to photos. After several discussions with my family, I decided to book a videographer and found Alenka Films. I have to say, hiring Alenka Films to shoot our wedding was one of the best decisions we made! She went above and beyond to capture our day. From the pre-wedding discussions and check-ins, to the day-of logistics and everything after the day, Alena has been so responsive and communicative - I never had any worries about her ability to follow through and provide the best videos possible. She captured all of the most important parts of our day and even stayed a little late to get some amazing shots of our guests dancing. Since the wedding day, the videos were provided well within the given timeframes and are all so beautiful. Everyone I have shown the videos compliments them so much. I am so glad we hired Alena to film our day and that we have a beautiful video to look back on for years to come!

There are not enough stars in the world to give Maya and their assistant Anne!! My wife and I hired them for our wedding, and they absolutely outdid themself. They were professional, timely, and incredibly fun to be around!! We even had a little mixup with family photos, and they worked through it with ease and grace. They never stressed anyone out either, which is HUGE for an event as big as a wedding. I honestly would have loved having them there as invited guests, photography aside! I’d be remiss to not mention the final photos—we have received a handful of edited photos to share with family, and they are GORGEOUS. Everybody we’ve shown them to has commented on how beautifully they turned out, and oh my god they really did!! Maya is absolutely worth every penny you pay for them and more. I cannot recommend them enough for your photography needs!!!

Hannah and Matt were so much fun to work with. They had a lot of creative ideas to get good footage, as well as did a great job of capturing what was naturally happening throughout the day. The final product they delivered was AMAZING. There were interviews with our wedding party, aerial shots of our venue, a dance compilation at the end, and most importantly to us, our entire ceremony, first dance, and all of our toasts. These are the things that could not be captured by photography alone, and we’re so happy we have a beautiful video we can watch back to remember the most important parts of our wedding day.

I stumbled upon Dear September in the midst of my wedding entertainment search, as they had worked with the band I had my eye on, and when I found out that they offered design and management packages - I knew I had to book them.

Well, the Dear September team did just that and more.

Whether you're saying vows in your backyard or having a 3-day adventure wedding in the rainforest, I'll catch every spontaneous moment of joy and laughter—and plan a few unique shots on top of it all.

Awarded Best of Zola
We cannot recommend Kathryn enough! First (and most obvious) (and also most important) point is that the photos she took were incredible. She captured our night beautifully. More than that though, she captured how the night felt. The photos weren't overly posy, but rather showed off how much fun and excitement there was for the entire night. I think one of the best things I can say about Kathryn is that she really made a point of figuring out HOW we wanted her to photograph the wedding and delivered. As I wrote above, we wanted the photographs to look great, but mostly just capture how the wedding felt and she delivered on that 100%. Also, as much as she made sure we were leading all the decision making, she really knew her stuff and took things off of our plate where we could. We knew how we wanted the photos to look generally, but neither of us are photographers. So we talked to her about style and vibe and she really took it from there. She was an absolute professional, a great person to work with, and kind and caring. We felt like we were in great hands every step of the way. Truly cannot recommend her enough.

hey you! thanks for dropping by. my name is shelby, and i am a queer artist and manhattan based photographer who specializes in weddings + equine portraiture. my priority as a photographer is developing a personal relationship with each and every one of my clients (two or four legged). your special moments are their most pure when you are comfortable and ready to just have fun, and i am here to create that joyful space.

Awarded Best of Zola
Shelby Phillips impressed me from the start. Before reaching out to her via email in the summer of 2018, I took some time to learn about her. From her personal blog, I learned that she is a graduate of NYU, that she loves photographing horses, that she is also an actor and a writer, and that she has a passion for bringing moments to life through photography. From looking at her curated selection of photographs on her website, I quickly learned that she cares about the minor gestures, the subtleties of a moment, and the play of light. At the time I found her (in 2018), I believe wedding photography was not her main focus; it seemed that she photographed more four-legged animals than did two-legged ones. I personally did not mind this one bit; rather, I found her versatility as a photographer to be a source of strength. If she could capture emotion and beauty without outward displays of emotions and beauty, then that speaks to her craft as an artist. I found her gentle and personal touch to photography to resonate deeply with me, and I also appreciated how she wrote about her life experiences in her blog. Here was a passionate young woman who not only observes the world with her eyes, but also attunes to it with her heart fully open. There was so much feeling evoked in both her writing and her photographs. There was so much vibrancy in her black-and-white captures. I was immediately hooked. I dedicate a whole blog post to Shelby here: https://www.booksmartstreetsmart.com/blog/2019/an-intimate-wedding-my-search-for-a-local-new-york-city-wedding-photographer Here's another snipped from my experience working with Shelby: The 5-minute walk to the wedding venue felt like eternity (in a good way!). I opted for an impractically long train for my wedding dress (I’m old-fashioned at heart!) so my younger sister dedicatedly carried it as I walked ahead of her. There were many stares from strangers along the way, but honestly, I did not pay attention because I was so focused on taking small steps so that I would not trip, or worse, get my heels stuck between the cracks in the sidewalk. It was past 5pm and the sun was blazing hot, but because we were situated right by the water, there was an occasional gentle breeze. Shelby was particularly excited about the wind, because it paved the way for some truly magnificent “action shots.” As I slowly made my way to the venue with my sister directly behind me, and my mother and soon-to-be mother-in-law next to us, Shelby was quick on her feet, capturing the magic in the small moments, while playing with the light. As I look back on the photographs that she took of that day, I am amazed by how she chased the light throughout the day and into the evening, how she beautifully brought life into still photographs, and how she managed to capture all our family and friends in a way that reflects each person’s personality. Today, when I visit Shelby’s website, I immediately notice that it has grown substantially. Since I signed my wedding photography contract, Shelby has taken on many other weddings, bringing life to a blank canvas by means of her camera lens, coupled with her eye for precious moments. I am so pleased to know that she is doing well, and that her dedication to her craft has paid off. PS. It is now 2021 and Shelby and I are still in touch! :) Thank you Shelby <3

Awarded Best of Zola
Going into my wedding planning process, I knew that our crowd would skew older and probably not be too into dancing. This was a bummer for me as I love music and dancing! We also were blending two cultures (Hispanic and Russian) as well as an eclectic taste in music, so I was concerned that a DJ wouldn't be able to smoothly transition between all these "vibes". When I met with Kelton to discuss our wedding and these situations, he was so positive and reassuring that it made me feel a lot better. We stayed in touch over the months between the initial booking and the wedding, and he was always SO helpful and detail-oriented that it even helped other parts of the wedding schedule! On the big day, he arrived right on time and ready to go. He worked flawlessly with my venue and the officiant to make sure all the cues, announcements, etc were correct and timely. The ceremony went off without a hitch, but the reception was even better! Kelton managed to get EVERYONE - even our 65+ year old crowd - on their feet!! He had a huge variety of music, so there was really something for everyone. It was everything I dreamed of, made possible by Kelton's DJ skills and experience. Can't recommend him enough for your event!
