From the moment we booked Russell Photography for our wedding, the communication was quick, thorough, and incredibly helpful. Lisa and was a true professional, providing insightful guidance every step of the way to ensure we captured all the special moments of our big day. On the wedding day, Lisa's keen eye for detail allowed her to beautifully document all the little things that made our celebration so wonderful and unique. Her ability to keep my husband and I laughing and comfortable in front of the camera resulted in photographs that truly reflect the joy and love of our wedding. I couldn't recommend Russell Photography enough - their work is simply wonderful.

Hi! My name is Lily and I am the founder and head photographer at Lily Catherine Photography. My business focuses on capturing the best in whoever is in front of the camera. I shoot 15-20 Weddings, 10-20 Engagements, 5-10 Family and a handful of real estate jobs every year. When I'm not working, I'm spending time with my husband and three children.

Awarded Best of Zola
Lily is absolutely wonderful to work with! We had originally scheduled with her for our wedding last year, but when COVID hit, we had to postpone to summer 2021. Lily was very flexible and understanding of our needs. We had her shoot our small, at-home wedding, and the pictures could not have turned out nicer. We've given several as gifts to our parents and grandparents, and everyone absolutely loved them. Lily also shot and organized our engagement shoot this past fall. My husband and I are not the most natural people in front of a camera, but Lily was great with telling us what to do and where to be. And those photos turned out wonderfully as well! She is always on top of communication - as many engaged couples may know, it is easy to get lost in the many details of planning - and she makes you feel like you are top priority. We can't wait for her to shoot our celebration this summer!

I'm a passionate photographer who absolutely loves capturing the special moments and emotions of your big day. With a relaxed and easy-going approach, I strive to make you feel comfortable in front of the camera so that your photos truly reflect your unique love story.

Awarded Best of Zola
I just wish we could relive our wedding day over and over again, even thought that isn’t possible I feel that I can every time I look at our wedding photos from Bee Photography. Bridget from Bee Photography is very professional. I would say this is also a major perk as well jf your husband is anything like mine and has a short attention span when it comes to any sort of photos, Bee photography made that process quick, easy and simple for my husband. I would recommend her over and over again, not just for your wedding but any special event your family may be having!

I'm Ondraea! Wedding photographer based in Buffalo, Ny, but would love to travel! Here at OGP, I strive to create an experience for my couples that goes beyond just taking the traditional ‘must-have’ wedding images. I believe that your gallery should be filled with genuine emotion, joyous laughs, and the intimate moments that take place between you and your loved ones. My job isn’t to just snap photos of your day, but to document each second in a way that allows you to not only relive the moments you remember but allow you to feel as though you were a part of moments you may not even know happened on your wedding day!

Awarded Best of Zola
1000000% recommend!!! I was referred to Ondraea from a co-worker it was by far the best wedding vendor referral we had! She met with me via zoom for an hour to discuss her photography style and what I was looking for. She was a perfect fit and was able to do our engagement photos and wedding photos. Her communication is so on point, she is also super organized (which being type A I totally appreciated!) My, now husband, and I didn’t know a thing about posing but during our engagement session Ondraea walked us through everything and we ended up having a really great time and has so much fun! When it came to the wedding itself, she has a great questionnaire for us to fill out about the day and she was instrumental in helping us plan out the sequence of the day. She helped us navigate the family formal process and list-which was clutch! Having it all planned out in advance made the family pictures seamless. When we got our photos back we loved them!! She is great to work with, makes taking pictures fun, and worked phenomenally with our vendors. Want to try a place she hasn’t been to before? No worries! Ondraea will go in advance and tour, she worked with our wedding coordinator to meet weeks before the wedding at the venue to find the best photo spots! Still on the fence? Check out her blog, her work speaks for itself! We will for sure be booking her again for future milestones and family photos. Thank you so much Ondraea for capturing our engagement and wedding so perfectly! Ps: If you are even thinking of getting wedding album just do it! By far the best investment we made throughout the wedding process. She takes all the guess work out if it and that is so appreciated!! Love, Rebecca and Paul

We are photographers based in Western New York. We're passionate when it comes to capturing those timeless in-between moments. When I'm not shooting, you can find me either hiking, tending to my ridiculous amount of houseplants, playing video games, or drawing. We specialize in weddings, couples, family and singles photo shoots. We love meeting new clients and getting the opportunity to capture moments that they can cherish for a lifetime. The only thing we love more is when clients become lifelong friends! Let's capture memories together!

Bound and Branch were the perfect photographers for our wedding day. From the moment we booked them, they were warm, friendly, and responsive, taking the time to really understand our style and vision as a couple. Their communication was always timely and comprehensive, and they provided creative ideas to make our photos truly special. On the day of the wedding, they made our family and friends feel so comfortable, and their fun, positive energy became a cherished part of our wedding memories. The value we received was incredible - their stunning, creative photos captured all the magic of our day, and we loved working with them so much that we've continued to book them for other milestones, like our engagement session and our child's baptism. We're so grateful to have found Bound and Branch and can't recommend them highly enough!

I am a wedding and elopement photographer located in Wyoming county. I love to take photos of weddings and elopements. Some say I have a true passion for what I do. I have learned a lot since I started and each wedding or session I am always striving to learn more. As a business owner I am fully insured and strive to be professional at everything I do. It's my goal to be able to do this full time someday! I love being able to capture someone's day it brings me happiness. I'm a pretty laid back go with the flow type of person. I do my absolute best to provide you with photos you'll remember forever.

I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer. Tabatha was more than willing to help with any wedding issues I had. She captured so many amazing photos. I’m so thankful we chose her for our big day. Because of her, our wedding was captured in beautiful photos to be reminded of our gorgeous day.

Kiran Photography

I’ll be the first to say I never thought I’d be here doing this. The day after I received my Bachelors in Science degree, I picked my childhood camera back up again and realized how effortlessly photography came to me. I was asked to do 2 weddings that year.. which turned into the 25 a year I do now... and I never looked back. Almost a decade later, I've worked in places like the tropical beaches of Puerto Vallarta to the serene rolling hills of Italy and everywhere in between, my one primary goal has remained to document love in the most authentic way.

Kiran is THE BEST couples photographer in the WNY area! We found her wedding photography page on Instagram while searching for Buffalo photographers. What we LOVE most about Kiran’s work is that her style of editing is true to tone, which is extremely important to us as a mixed and interracial couple. From the beginning Kiran made us feel cared for and was detailed with what we could expect throughout the process, which put our minds at ease during the day of. Kiran made us feel confident and comfortable while capturing all the special and intimate moments. She was so much fun to work with and the quality of her work shows throughout our gallery. We would recommend Kiran to everyone looking for a wedding/couples photographer and we are looking forward to working with Kiran again for as our destination photographer!

Dani did our wedding in 2022 and we have already had 3 more sessions with her and another on the books for this year. We also did our engagement session with her before we were married :) We are so thankful she has been someone that can document our lives as we grow!! She is AMAZING to work with and her photos are pure magic. It's really something that we haven't gotten bored from using her through the years, haha. But seriously, she seems to offer something a little different each time and oh my gosh we are still so blown away everytime we get our photos back from her!! We've even sent more of our family to her so she's basically become our whole extended family photographer :D

It's hard to pick favorites but if your wedding includes a dog in the bridal party, a dress with pockets and the cupid shuffle....COUNT ME IN! Among my never-ending list of dream sessions is of course a wedding at Disneyworld and the ultimate outdoorsy engagement session with the wild horses at Shackleford Banks. Don't be surprised when I ask you to add me to your pinterest boards so I can fangirl over your wedding plans.
