  • Serves Valley Cottage, NY

I began my career a decade ago. As a tour photographer, I began accompanying musicians all over the world. Little did I know at that point the low lights, high energy, and late nights would translate well into my career as a wedding photographer. My start as a music photographer gave me the confidence to navigate even the most challenging and unpredictable situations, and I use the same philosophy now while photographing weddings: keep calm, stay observant, and follow the action.

Awarded Best of Zola
My wife and I worked with Jess over this past year for engagement photos and coverage of our wedding (ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception). The engagement photos were done in NYC and the wedding was at a venue outside of Philadelphia. It was a true pleasure to work with Jess. She is extremely skilled, knowledgeable, communicative, and prepared. The quality of the work in her portfolio speaks for itself but I cannot overstate how thrilled my partner and I are with the photos. She managed to capture so many lovely moments and the spirit of the day. The intimacy and beauty she brings out with her portraits are astounding—I have never felt more comfortable being in front of a camera and I have never loved the result so much. The variety of the media brings a beauty to the detail I didn’t think I would care about—the place settings, the venue, and everything else look great and are considered in composition and lighting. None of the photos delivered are there just to check a box. The amount of preparation and work she puts in for each job is evident just by the uniquely specific nature of her questionnaire—her questions were helpful for us in planning! She was always quick to email us back when we had questions for her and helpful in ways we never would have expected—good news if you don’t know how to pin a boutonniere, Jess does (and she brought extra pins). The amount of choices for any type of wedding vendor is overwhelming. You would be lucky, as we were, to choose Jess.

Hi there! I'm Nia, a wedding and elopement photographer based in Boston, MA but obsessed with traveling. I love the days when I stumble upon a new landscape, learn something new from a stranger or aimlessly drive until I end up somewhere decent. This is why I love storytelling. My favorite stories to tell are by far the love shared between two people. Storytelling and making a moment last is what drew me to photography. Documenting your day in an honest, soulful way that shows who you are is what I strive for.

Nia is a GEM! First of all, extremely talented. But she also makes you feel comfortable in front of the camera and the results are always so, so stunning. I am so grateful to have found her and you will be too!

I found my love for photography in a high school dark room, and I have continued to follow that passion to find myself today working as a hybrid photographer in both Film and Digital.

After graduating from Parson's School of Art in Manhattan, I worked as a fine artist, my work involved photography and photo manipulation. I quickly discovered that I loved and excelled at photo retouching, and went on to work for some of the best photo retouching studios in New York. In 2009 I shot my first wedding, it was a dear friend of mine and the beautiful photos were featured in one of the biggest wedding magazines. I realized that I had found my calling and have been producing stunning wedding photographs with my amazing team and clients ever since.

Emma was absolutely amazing, from the moment we enquired right through to the end; she was great to deal with, very friendly and helpful, provided great advise and made everyone feel at ease! Highly professional, talented, organised and a great communicator, with an eye for detail! She captured all those special moments without being intrusive or even knowing that she was there. My husband is not a fan of the camera, Emma worked with it, didn’t make it a problem and captured some fantastic candid photos! We are so incredibly happy with our photos and highly recommend Emma to anyone who is wanting a professional wedding photographer!

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.

My husband and I had Kayla as our wedding photographer as well as had her do two different engagement shoots with us during different times of the years! She made us always feel comfortable while also knowing all of the right angles that are flattering. She was so easy to work with and communicate with during the entire process and was affordable!

Her photographs looked so ethereal and magical and I loved the way she managed to make the couples look candid but also beautifully posed at the same time.

We couldn't have asked for a better photographer and the photographs were some of the most beautiful images and we couldn't be happier. Not to mention, Anna sent us our very generous "sneak peek" album within FIVE days of the wedding! I could not recommend Anna more.

i consider myself too much of a hopeless romantic and a laid-back photographer to bring the best in you! i’ve been told that nurture is my superpower, and documenting love stories is my outlet. over the years i’ve learned that when it comes to being creative, art it’s what makes me feel alive, that's why my approach to photography is to have an "as-personal-as-possible" experience with my couples by valuing authenticity and connection. to make the whole process feel light and easy! your life’s best moments and stages deserve to be documented in a way that tells YOUR story.

My (now) husband and I eloped in NYC and hired Juan to document the experience and I am so grateful we did!! Juan is the kindest, easiest person to work with and a wonderfully creative photographer. We spent the day taking photos in front of City Hall, Joe's Pizza, and the NY Public Library and time just flew by! We're obsessed with how our photos turned out and love that we get to look back on this day forever :)

For Couples who are good at heart, that live for the seconds and party like no tomorrow. Capturing Authentic moments, focused on heartfelt storytelling. Based in the Southern Adirondacks, I have been wedding photographer for 15+ years now telling over 400+ wedding days.

My husband Sean and I got married at the Blue Water Manor in June 2024. We are from northern NJ and took a chance on each of our vendors through their portfolios and online reviews. Jason went above and beyond what we could have ever expected from our photographer. Since we were from out of the area we had multiple phone calls to discuss timelines and specifics really helping us think of everything. Even met with us the week of to walk through the venue and other places we wanted to take photos, just rolling with it and helping us get exactly what we wanted. Nothing could have prepared us for the crappy weather we had the day of the wedding but Jason put a smile on with us and braved it. Never complained about how soaked he probably got and just did everything possible to help us have the best day. And we did. Every single one of our guests commented on lucky we were to have a photographer like him watching him in action and our photos speak to that. Even though our wedding day has come and gone we would still book Jason time and time again.

My name is, yensy marquez Born in the Dominican Republic where I spent my early childhood before moving to the United States at the age of 5. I have always had love for the arts and music. I spent my teenage years drawing cartoons and Japanase manga. I discovered my love for photography during my late teenage years when I got my hands on my first cellphone with a camera. I was always the go to picture person during family events and gatherings. Though they were admittedly average at the time, everyone loved them and always encouraged me to get a real camera. I finally saved up for one and never looked back.

Working with Yensy has been a very pleasant experience. He's able to connect with the flow of the photo shoot. He's polite, professional, and kind. He is also very good at making the client feel comfortable in front of the camera. Highly recommended!

BEST WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER IN THE GAME!!!! There is no need to keep searching for photographers. Siobhan is the best for any event! There are no words to describe how excellent Siobhan is, both with her work and as a person. Not only is she talented, organized, and professional, but she is also personable and made us feel like we have been friends for years. My husband and I first met Siobhan for our engagement shoot. We were nervous to be in front of the camera and worried we would look awkward. Siobhan made us feel so comfortable, and our pictures were AWESOME! My mom and sister also surprised me with Siobhan as my photographer for my bridal shower. Thank god they did! From detail shots to portraits with friends and family to all of the candid moments- Siobhan captured it all! Siobhan kept all lines of communication open as the wedding day approached. She had us fill out documents to update her on wedding details, family portraits, group pictures, and any “must-have” pictures we wanted to capture. Siobhan also shared a list of helpful suggestions and items to start putting together for detailed shots. She went above and beyond to put together a timeline of the day and helped put my mind at ease during the last few weeks of planning. Thank god we had Siobhan on the day of the wedding! We were married on a golf course, and the grounds manager told us we needed to wait to take pictures on the course because it would start pouring. Siobhan quickly took out her phone to look at the radar and insisted we go out on the golf course. Our pictures are beautiful— full of Sun and Smiles. No other photographer would have fought for us to get those pictures!!! She kept our bridal party in line and made sure we followed the exact timeline we had planned together. I did not have to worry about anything with her by my side. Siobhan sent us our edited “sneak peaks”… THE NEXT DAY!!! Our whole gallery was ready within one month of our wedding day. She captured everything! We are OBSESSED and couldn’t wait to share them with our families. We can’t recommend Siobhan enough! You NEED her as your photographer!

Hi! My name is Nick. I fell in love with photography as a child through my love for music; I was obsessed with album covers and photos that would draw my eye and immediately tell me a story. I have a passion for art and my way of expressing it has always been through music and photography. I love hanging out with my friends and being social. Going out to dinner, having drinks, and spending time with my family are a few of my favorite things.

We never even looked for another photographer when planning our wedding. We new from the start that we would use Nick Finochio Photography. We had seen his work for many years prior to our wedding and we were in awe at his attention to detail and overall style of photography. When it came time for our wedding, Nick delivered beyond our expectations. His calm manner was exactly what we needed on our big day and he made us and our bridal party feel so at ease in front of the camera. Nick realizes the style you are going for with your wedding theme and personalities and turns that into a story with his photos. We HIGHLY recommend Nick for your wedding day and promise that you will be blown away by his work.

Being a professional photographer for over ten years has allowed me to develop my artistic craft.

Ranging from engagements, weddings, and corporate settings, I have photographed a diversity of people from all different backgrounds in diverse moments of their life. I love bringing out the best in my subjects through various angles and filters, celebrating that special and unforgettable moment.

We had Pepe do our photo shoot for our wedding announcements at the venue. It was during covid and he was very professional. He took amazing candid shots not posed and had great artistic impression for backdrops as well as lighting and close up shadow photos. He did such a great job we hired him back to photograph the wedding. The results were fantastic and everyone adored the results from family photos, the ceremony, and the after party, and didn’t even miss the room decor. Pepe stayed well into the night and kept candid shots of the guests partying well into the night. All of the photos were ours to digitally keep. I would highly recommend.

Jason "Snorlax" Cun is an all around photographer that currently resides in Los Angeles, California. He was raised in the heart of Los Angeles, where he found his calling in photography. He aims to capture the beauty of the world and the people in them. He has recently begun his travels around the U.S capturing the life of those within that city.

I met Jason at a conference and learned that he does photography. When years later I got married, I remembered how intrigued I was with how photography style and the gorgeous landscape shots he would take. I asked him to fly out from California to shoot my wedding in North Carolina. He is kind, prompt, responsive to messages, and accommodated me on my wedding day. He made me feel comfortable and had fun ideas for shots of my wedding party. I would recommend Jason to anyone who needs a professional photographer for their event! Jason is one of a kind!

To start, I'm obsessed with memories! I am a mother of two wonderful kids and the wife of the most amazing, supportive man. Photography has been such a big part of my life the last twelve years and I can't thank my clients enough for allowing me to capture their special moments. I believe in capturing moments as they happen. My style is clean and natural and there's always those black and white moments that I can't live without! I love having a vision and seeing it realized through a photograph. Also, I love to travel!

My husband and I cannot recommend Amy enough!! Not only did she make our wedding so incredible special, memorable, and fun, but she was so impeccably organized and efficient — I can't imagine there are any other photographers who know the ins and outs of The Banks on the level that she does. We couldn't be happier with the photos and everything from the locations to the lighting was perfect! Not only is Amy at the top of her professional game, but she's just a lovely person — super responsive, detail-oriented, sweet, and supportive. We loved working with her so much and she made our day so stress free! If you're getting married there's no better photographer than Amy!! You will not be disappointed xo

Hi there, my beautiful people! This bio had all the chances to turn into one of those lengthy chat GPT-generated texts which would make your eyes roll up as you scroll down. Instead, I want it to be short and sharp like the photographs I take. And I want my visual language to speak for itself clearly and distinctly. That’s why I will try to answer the main question you all want to ask. Why me?

Valentinka was the wedding photographer for my city hall wedding. She took photos inside but the majority were spontaneous outdoor photos of my friend and us waking around downtown. They turned out amazing! We have so many fun and interesting pictures. They are all creative and original and Valentinka was extremely professional and had so many ideas that turned out to be great! I would highly recommend her.

Hi, I'm Kayla! I'm so glad you're here! I was asked to talk about why I'm passionate about my work. Well for one, I love meeting new couples. It brings me a lot of joy creating images for couples who want to preserve timeless memories. It's not just about the images but really connecting with my couples to make sure to make sure they have an effortless experience with me.

I’m the owner of Koat Floral. I’ve been working with numerous photographers since I started my job as a florist and I can say that Kayla was the best photographer I’ve ever worked with. I won’t describe how amazing her work is, because you’ll notice it within a second right after you visit her website or Instagram page. I adore her clean, classic and elegant style. Her photography never fails to capture the brightest/happiest moment of the couple. If I get married one day, Kayla will be the first vendor I will book(only If her availability allows it). Besides her amazing work, I want to mention how amazing of a person she is. Kayla is such a bright and friendly person. She makes the whole mood very easy and comfortable. Mostly, couples are not comfortable when they pose in front of others and cameras. But, with Kayla, it was totally different. The whole photoshoot seemed so much fun. I can hear the couple’s laughter and jokes throughout the whole shooting. When you see Kayla’s photos, you can see the couples’ genuine smiles. Those are hard to fake. The other one is her punctuality. Kayla is never late! Always come onsite earlier and even she sent the sneak peek photos so much earlier than it was scheduled(can you believe it?)! Normally, it takes a long time for the other photographers to send the photos and often it could be even delayed. But Kayla, she was the only photographer who sent the photos so much earlier. She said she couldn't wait to see the photos; that’s why she edited the photos without sleeping. I was genuinely touched by her work ethic and her passion towards her work. I’m so lucky to know Kayla because I've learned a lot from and been inspired by her and it’s always good to be surrounded by nice people. I hope many of you could have the same experience as I’ve done with Kayla. I LOVE YOU, KAYLA!!!

Momo Shot Photography

  • Editorial style

  • Serves Valley Cottage, NY

I’m a drummer, a mother of two amazing kids, and a proud owner of an 80lb Samoyed. My passion for photography is deeply influenced by my family legacy—my grandmother was a dedicated full-time photographer who spent her life capturing and hand-coloring her own images. Growing up immersed in her art has profoundly shaped my own approach to photography. As a photographer, I'd love to capture the journey of two people in love, telling the genuine and touching story of their life together. I strive to create images that convey heartfelt narratives and reflect the true essence of your relationship and the moments you share.

We hired Momo for our Chinese-Bengali fusion wedding celebration in lower east side of Manhattan in mid June 2024. We had a very small venue with 10 family members and 30 closest and dearest friends of ours for an intimate gathering. Momo’s camera closely followed and captured the unfolding of the event and the subtlest facial expressions of our family, guests and myself throughout the night. I got to know about her work from Red (Chinese Reddit) before entrusting her for one of the most important events of my life, but was still caught exhilarated by her work product on our event — her passion about photography and deep expertise in its technicality shined through the over 200-photo-well-woven storyline. Besides her exceptional work and high professionalism throughout our pre-and-during event communication, I appreciated her confident and genuine approach which I found down-to-earth, super helpful and reassuring — she really put in the work to understand you and amplify your shining traits. It’s such a pleasant and unforgettable experience to work with Momo. I would highly recommend her for any couples who are looking for wedding photographers.

All the beautiful moments, from the tiny ones to the big amazing ones - they are all important. We tell stories from start to finish, with a focus on emotion. We photograph in our home cities of San Francisco, Chicago and New York City, but also travel internationally - we've photographed weddings in seven countries.

Tuan B & Co are so kind and amazing to work with. Their team is dedicated in capturing every moment with such care and consideration that you can tell they love what they do and give it their all. They are the only team I know that will anticipate social interactions during all parts of the event day and capture all the emotion in those special moments. The energy of the day comes through in their work with what feels effortless- but in reality it is the years of experience and artistic vision that can only be brought to you by Tuan B & Co.

I'm a wife, a mom and a New Jersey wedding photographer!! I love Jesus! I really really love to travel!!! And I'm the one who always plan the vacations. My favorite food is Italian. If I had to choose between the beach or snow, you will definitely see me jumping into the water!! I have a degree in Accounting and Finance and I love to create budgets. I was born in Cuba, so my first language is Spanish, lived in Colombia for a few years and my plan is to get old in the United States.

Sarai came recommended in a wedding group I was in, and we could not have been more pleased with our decision to hire her for our intimate courthouse wedding. From our very first interaction, Sarai was incredibly responsive, friendly, and collaborative in helping us plan the perfect November morning around lower Manhattan. My husband and I have varying degrees of comfort with pictures, yet she was able to capture both staged shots and joyful, candid moments that made our wedding day so memorable. Sarai took the time to get to know us as a couple and brought out our goofy, playful sides without even trying. She went above and beyond anything we could have imagined, delivering the best value for the incredible quality of her work. Sarai is not only an incredibly talented photographer, but a genuinely kind and personable human being. We cannot recommend Sari Photography highly enough for any couple looking to document their wedding day with beautiful, timeless imagery.
