Cassie Ann Images Photography

  • Serves Utica, NY

I pride myself on being able to work with couples of all backgrounds and cultures. I am outgoing, energetic and have a true passion for documenting your day. Each wedding tells a unique story and it is my job to tell your story. I have been photographing weddings for over 6 years . Prior to that I worked weddings as a 2nd photographer and an assistant to several regional photographers. I felt that by working with several different companies I was able to gather experience from several perspectives. I shoot with the Nikon series of cameras and Lens. During the "off season" you can catch me photographing local High school sporting events.

Cassie was so easy to work with, she was always available to chat with, and so helpful with planning our COVID wedding. She took the most beautiful pictures and captured our relationship in a very natural way. We couldn't have planned and re-planned our wedding without her help and expertise. We chose Cassie because we love the natural look of her photos. It is also very nice to have a photographer that is not completely booked every weekend with a wedding. We were not a number we were able to create a bond and friendship. Thank you Cassie for being so wonderful!

Hey hey 👋, I’m LaDonna. Wedding photographer & videographer with a passion for celebrating the love stories of couples from all walks of life. Growing up in the suburbs of Boston and attending undergrad in Connecticut, I’m a true New England gal. Winter holds a special place in my heart, as I embrace the beauty and charm of every location I photograph. I’m always delighted to travel wherever your love story takes you—even an Aspen winter elopement. That would honestly make my heart smile! 😊 My mission: create timeless, heirloom-quality artwork that reflects the unique connection & individuality of each couple I have the honor to serve.

Awarded Best of Zola
I’m typically shy and not very photogenic, so I was extremely anxious about how our wedding photos would turn out. But after finding LaDonna through a Facebook ad, I immediately knew I wouldn’t have to worry if she was our photographer. She took the time to understand me and helped me find my confidence in front of the camera. By the wedding day, I felt completely at ease and able to focus on the moment with my husband rather than my insecurities in my head. LaDonna and the LT² team captured everything beautifully, balancing candid moments with fine art shots that truly tell our story. The photos are so authentic, and I’ll cherish these memories forever, along with the confidence I gained. Thank you, LaDonna, for an unforgettable experience! 3 7.27.24

Elopement & Wedding photographer in the beautiful Upstate NY. We love sophisticated, stylish and romantic vibes, as well as rustic and adventureful days. We travel throughout the northeast and the mountain ranges of the ADK. In addition to capturing the traditional wedding photos, luxury high-end wedding photography services often include a range of extra features, such as engagement photo shoots, bridal portraits, boudior and even aerial drone photography. These services can help to create a truly unique and personalized experience that will be treasured for a lifetime.

Amanda from Golden Heart Studios was the photographer for our wedding in August, 2023. Before the wedding day we discussed the schedule and the look we were going for in our photos and Amanda went above and beyond to give us what we were looking for. She was great with directing us, the wedding party, and family to pose for photos and really thought through where she would be at different parts of the ceremony to make sure that she got beautiful shots. She was especially good at getting the little kids to look at the camera. The editing of the photos was also exactly what we were looking for. My only regrets are that I didn't schedule more time and that I didn't have a more detailed schedule for my family when it came to photos. On the wedding day itself, it was a bit like herding cats. But Amanda was very helpful, cooperative, and creative and made it work anyway! The pictures looked great and she really captured the atmosphere of the ceremony and reception!

  • Serves Utica, NY

I am just a bubbly extrovert with a serious love for love & ice cream. Growing up, my dream job was to become a wedding planner. The wedding scene fascinated me! Thankfully, my lack of organizational skills shifted me away from that and directed me towards photography instead. Photographing a wedding day is one of my greatest joys, and I truly believe it's what I was made to do. I'm here to hold your hand when you're nervous, pin boutonnieres when no one else knows how, and to give you images that are timeless, romantic, authentic.

Lauren Victoria Photography was an absolute joy to work with on our wedding day. From the moment we first reached out, they were incredibly friendly, responsive, and made us feel like their top priority. Their communication throughout the planning process and on the day of the wedding was seamless. The final photos they delivered were nothing short of incredible - their creativity and artistic eye shone through in every shot, perfectly capturing the genuine emotions and effortless moments of our special day. We were thrilled to receive our full gallery in a very timely manner, allowing us to relive the magic of our wedding day. We cannot recommend Lauren Victoria Photography highly enough for any couple looking for a talented, professional, and personable photography team to help document their big day.

She was immensely passionate about our family struggles and understood that we were paying for our wedding with no help from family. Any questions I had even when they weren’t pertaining to photography, Lyn did research and found deals that helped us save money. I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer to work with than Lyn. She walked through every step of my wedding with us and when my wedding came, Lyn an Melissa were more than I could have ever expected! They were so personable, professional, and made sure we were comfortable every moment we were with them! After our wedding we had continually gotten compliments on how fantastic they were and how they always had a smile and never got upset when our guests asked for photos of themselves with others!

We had such a wonderful experience with Ben and his 2nd photographer, Zee for our August wedding.

He has incredible talent and our wedding album was more beautiful than we could have ever imagined or hoped for. Photography is such an important wedding aspect, and there's no one else I would've felt so comfortable holding that responsibility than Ben. Ben and Zee captured every little moment and emotion felt on our wedding day and I'm grateful we will be able to relive the day through their photos.

Julia is truly the BEST photographer out there and she makes everyone look SO GOOD!! We booked her for both our engagement session and our wedding because we loved her so much! She is so skillful at finding beautiful angles and working with natural lighting, and she was great at directing us with suggested poses that didn’t look forced or unnatural. She was also really easy to work with: we met up beforehand to communicate our vision and discuss the kinds of photographs that we wanted for the engagement session and we did that again for our wedding. On our wedding day Julia brought her husband Leo who is also a photographer to assist her and they came early in the morning to begin taking scenery photos, details, and other things while the rest of us got ready. She was there with us throughout the entire day all the way til the end of the evening and she went out with us to take some sunset photos in the middle of the reception, which turned out so beautifully! Finally, Julia was super prompt at sending us the final photographs, which I know she worked hard on because there were A LOT! We can tell that Julia truly enjoys what she does and really wants to get the best photos possible so she always goes above and beyond. I think the phenomenal photos that we’re sharing here can speak for themselves. She was such a joy to work with and we can’t wait to find some other excuse to hire her again!!

We really could not be happier with Rich and his second shooter for our big day! He was professional and fun, and already delivered a ton of preview photos even though our wedding was a few days ago. We're so excited to see the film photos as well. He was willing to go along with some of our more time-consuming schemes (first look on top of a ski hill) and still managed to keep us on track.

Hello, I'm Kayla! Voted most likely to succeed in the field of agriculture. Yet somehow, landed here. And I wouldn't change a single thing. Life has taken me on some crazy adventures and up until 6 years ago, none of those pointed to being a photographer. Becoming a mom led me to pick up a camera and since then I haven't put it back down. I quickly developed a passion for telling people's stories. Capturing the most intimate, heartfelt moments truly sets my soul on fire.

Kayla French Photography was a fantastic choice for our wedding photography. Kayla provided great communication everything leading up to the wedding and after, and the day of she couldn't have been more helpful. Kayla's work is absolutely amazing - you can tell she loves what she does and it really shows in the beautiful photos she captured.

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

Awarded Best of Zola
It was love at first sight when I found Blooming Faith Photography on Zola! I was struck by the classic style of the portraits and natural air of those being photographed. It was exactly what I was looking for! Melissa was quick to respond to my inquiry and provided all the info I needed right off the bat. She is detailed and thorough in her correspondence and planning, which I appreciated since we only had 5 months to plan our wedding long distance. She offered an introductory Zoom consultation to discuss our vision for the photos so we could feel at ease leading up to the actual day. When the time came, Melissa was the consummate professional! We did a First Look shoot, and she lead the way completely, to avoid any awkward mishaps and to insure we got the moment captured on our video as well. All of our formal photos were posed beautifully and naturally, and she timed it all perfectly (which was great, because it was quite cold!) She’s also great with kids! Our flower girl and ring bearer had a great time doing photos. At both the ceremony and reception, Melissa didn’t miss a single moment yet remained respectful and discreet. Her experience and expertise is obvious! And the photos that we’ve seen so far have been absolutely gorgeous. Timeless and sophisticated while still capturing the joy from that day. And as a human being, we couldn’t have asked for a kinder soul to capture everything for us. Melissa’s warmth and care brought the whole experience to another level. My husband and I were blessed to have found Blooming Faith Photography!

When I first started wedding photography, I made a goal of being more than just the photographer on your big day. I made it my goal to be your friend, someone you can crack inside jokes with, and someone who isn't afraid to get down + have fun at the reception (while still doing her job). I made it my goal to capture more than just photos, but an experience. Whether it’s high in the mountains, on a beach near the ocean, in a forest meadow - you deserve to get married however you want to & I want to capture it for you.

Lexi did a wonderful job capturing my husband and I’s wedding day! We couldn’t be more grateful for all the amazing photos she took for us. We will cherish them forever! Lexi is a very skilled photographer who pays close attention to detail. Her calm & caring personality was also very comforting for the both of us. Highly recommend L& L photography!

My portfolio is a canvas that dances with diversity – a rich tapestry woven from both film and digital techniques. Embracing new trends and technologies, I blend the nostalgic allure of film with the precision of digital artistry, resulting in a mesmerizing fusion that speaks to the modern soul. Whether it's the classic charm of analog or the cutting-edge allure of pixels, my work resonates with a richness that only true connoisseurs can appreciate.

We had the privilege of working with Anna and it was such a wonderful experience! Anna’s photography style is so editorial and unique that we couldn’t believe how lucky we got finding her! Our photos came out absolutely beautiful! Everyone deserves to get their photos taken of this caliber at least one time in life and there’s no one better I’d recommend for the job than Anna Shastie Photography! It's truly a lifetime investment. Well worth it!!

Toxic Waste Photo delivers every time. The photographer is very pleasant, positive, and easy to work with.

Working with Toxic Waste made that fear a thing of the past and I'm so thrilled with how everything went. I also really enjoy how their photo style is stylized with a lot of personality - it made my photos feel more unique and exciting. Highly recommend for any special occasion!

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.

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!
