My name is Jonathan Henderson, Photography became a passion of mine while being involved in the school news paper at my high school. Holding a camera in my hands and seeing the smiles and enthusiastic gestures of my clients made my job worth while. Elegant Production Photography job is to get you to smile, set aside worry and enjoy what is happening right now in this moment. To feel comfortable about you and your choices. My goal is to produce at my very best, I aim to please from start to finish your wants and needs on your special day. It's here that I say thank you for being who you are and for choosing Elegant Production Photography.

I had the pleasure of having him as my photographer and I must point out his talent. I think all of us have been to events where it’s all pose pose pose switch pose pose - which is fine. But he captured life- he captured the moments of my wedding. The pictures have facial expressions because he took the pictures in a natural state. He was able to create a still frame of moments that now i can recall for the rest of my life. The whole experience was warm and organic- we communicated prior and he guided me through the plan. I highly recommend him.

Caitlin Cooper Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,200
  • Serves West Islip, NY

I’ll try to keep this short: I’m a silly, introverted, rule breaker with a sincere whimsical streak. Originally from Iowa with a decent chunk of time spent bopping between Minneapolis and Oregon, I love weddings + photography (duh), my nephew, a stiff gin + tonic, propagating too many damn houseplants, and my cats. Last I checked I’m an INFP, Enneagram 4, and Capricorn which makes me quite the pragmatic daydreamer + observer: as unnecessarily prepared as a Boy Scout, curiously creative, and hella laid back, all of which uniquely prepares me for the ebb and flow of a wedding day.

I can't say enough good things about Caitlin! My partner and I wanted more non-traditional portraiture for both our engagement photos and wedding and Caitlin just immediately understood the vibe we wanted. She's great at getting to know her clients and making you feel comfortable in front of the lens. Similarly, she just melts into the background during the wedding and captures everything you wanted and more, all without being front and center. You won't regret hiring her and I'd say book her while you still can, because she's only set to blow up more :)

Hi, I’m Nicole (she/her) - a Rhode Island-based wedding photographer. I have more than a decade of experience shooting weddings of all kinds - and today, I work collaboratively with my couples to create photos that evoke how their day felt. Photos of honest and emotional interactions; small details that hold weight and meaning; effortless portraits that capture the feel of the surrounding space or landscape. The result is a narrative visual story of enduring human connections, and a chronicle of emotional moments that they can revisit time and time again.

Nicole is absolutely phenomenal. She is kind, funny, professional, smart, and supportive throughout the entire wedding process. She made my husband and I feel comfortable, constantly checked in with our needs, and is incredibly talented. I've only gotten the sneak peeks back so far but we are THRILLED at how our photos turned out. Thank you Nicole (& Amanda)!!! We loved working with both of them on our day.

  • Serves West Islip, NY

I am a self-proclaimed nerd and total goofball who is always up for an adventure, especially if it means going to the beach. I love to travel. I have been blessed to find “home” on three different continents, and I speak fluent English, Spanish and Portuguese. My husband Mike, sons Javi & Ro, baby Soleil and pup Tag are my greatest motivation. They simultaneously drive me crazy and keep me grounded. The love, strength and energy I get from them shapes my perspective on the world, and is something that I want to share with you. In addition to all that, I happen to be one of the luckiest people in the world – I love my job!

The moment we got engaged , we were already thinking of pictures because we love Fall and wanted all the foliage! We had seen Bridget’s work and knew without a doubt we wanted her to be the one to capture our special moment! We told Bridget what we were looking for in our pictures and a little about us and the places she recommended could not have been more perfect. We knew we would have forever memories and beautiful pictures as a product from our wonderful photography session. Bridget brings humor, light, and positivity to her work which makes having hundreds of pictures taken of you a little less awkward! We knew we would be happy with our pictures, but what we received was 100X more amazing than we could have imagined. Bridget is truly a talented photographer, capturing the most beautiful angles and colors and we can’t wait to have her with us on our wedding day and any future picture sessions!

Run, don’t walk! Do yourself a favor and book a session with Acromatico - you won’t regret it! During our Covid wedding we felt safe working with them as they were professional, flexible and understanding. Acromatico brought our vision to life. Marietta ( Tica ) was a dream to work with, energetic, engaging, and a lot of fun! There just aren’t enough words to possibly describe how amazing each and every photo turned out to be. She has a magical way of finding the perfect angle, lighting and of course expressions. Would definitely recommend and use for future events!

She captured the most intimate and meaningful details of our wedding day, and we have hardly been able to stop pouring over the photos since we got them. On a gray flood-filled weekend, the colors and joy of everything popped so well in her film and digital shots. Savanna has created memories that are so beautiful that we can turn them into actual art pieces to hang on our walls!

Cate photographed our small wedding ceremony in 2021 and was an absolute pleasure to work with. She captured both the physical beauty of the day, as well as the love and joy of our families joining together. Cate confidently guided us through a few group shots, but mostly took candid pics of special moments with our family and friends. Her turnaround time with the photos was quick and her pricing was more than fair. I would highly recommend her to anyone who wants beautiful, intimate photos taken with great care and attention to detail.

FIVE STARS!! I knew my wedding day was going to fly by and I wouldn’t be able to witness every moment so having a good videographer was one of the most important things on my list. I felt discouraged with how much videographers seemed to cost though, until I booked Silver Arrow Band and saw you could also book videography services through them with a 10% discount when you booked both. I watched a few of their videos and was blown away, it was everything I was looking for! We did the full package of two videographers, full ceremony, speeches, and dance coverage, and the best part - drone footage! Our venue Saltwater Farm Vineyard is on a beautiful estuary and I was really hoping to cover both the nature and the important moments of our big day. The videographers were amazing to work with. They were both so kind, helpful, and made sure to capture every moment big or small. They had the groom and officiant properly mic’d up so they could capture every word. The teaser, the highlight reel, and the fully ceremony and speeches are incredible! They were able to capture all of our favorite moments. It was also so great seeing how much fun our guests were having. I promise your money is well spent if you book Lightwave Event Artists!

Tired of not seeing yourselves represented in the wedding industry? Welcome to the RTP fam - we're a husband and wife duo shooting a combination of digital, film and Polaroid photos so that your gallery will deliver all the vibes and capture your sick, nontraditional love. And because of all the time we'll spend together getting to know you and crafting the perfect photo timeline for your day, you'll feel like we're just your two best friends there to capture the moments. No matter your size, race, gender, sexual orientation or religion, we're here to hype you up as you share all your wildest wedding ideas with us!

Meaghan and Evan photographed our Halloween wedding and we couldn't imagine having anyone else! We met Meaghan and Evan last October when they shot our engagement photos. They were more than willing to trudge through our favorite park and stop at all our favorite spots to get some beautiful photos we used for our save the date. We got to get to know them a little more over at our favorite little ramen restaurant after the session and of course we were instantly sold! Meaghan was super communicative and responded to every email I sent her pretty much right away every single time. As we got closer to the wedding day, she sent an incredibly detailed questionnaire. It covered everything from our most important shots to what weird family dynamics she should be conscious of; we sincerely appreciated this level of care, especially as a queer couple with some iffy family things. When I was hiring vendors, it was extremely important to me to find vendors who were queer/queer friendly and body positive, and Meaghan checked off both boxes in spades. My wife and I both have huge body insecurities and are deeply self-conscious of photos-but Meaghan made us both feel so beautiful. I was never even aware of the parts of myself I am usually hyper aware of because Meaghan and Evan both made us feel so comfortable. We were able to laugh and feel every emotion without once worrying about how we would look in the photos. On the day of, Meaghan kept us right on track without rushing us or making us feel stressed. We were definitely running behind at points but Meaghan handled it all with grace and helped me keep my head above water the whole time. They captured every moment in such a storybook way that we are able to talk about and remember every detail of the day based on the photos. This gallery is such a keepsake and such a special reminder of the best day of our lives. Its so heartwarming to look back and see how happy we and our guests look. And my wife and I both couldn’t have asked for more stunning photos of ourselves. We both look and feel so feminine, so whimsical, so magical. She captured our authentic selves, which is what makes her photos so unique and beautiful. I can't wait to order our prints and have these photos in our home forever! Thank you, Meaghan and Evan. There's so much more I could say but I'll leave off with, we are so grateful to have had you on our day. We love our photos so much. And we can't wait to have you do another shoot for us sometime in the near future! We cannot recommend you highly enough!

I’m Lizzie, a wedding & engagement photographer in New York and New Jersey. For more than a decade, I’ve been capturing life's great moments. On wedding days, I am known for my happy and relaxed presence, making sure you’re on time and smiling throughout your whole day.

Working with Lizzie through the entire process, from shopping for a photographer, booking, engagement shoot, planning, day of and photo delivery was the smoothest process imaginable. My husband and I felt as if we were chatting with a friend every conversation, meeting and event we spent with Lizzie. To put it plainly, she is built for this business, in and out. Our engagement photos and wedding photos were all beyond stunning. We received sneak peak photos within days of both of our engagement shoot and wedding. The sneak peak wedding photos were received NEXT DAY! Our full wedding album came one month and one day later. Lizzie had the pleasure of photographing us when it was 20 degrees or less during our engagement shoot and torrential downpours our wedding day. The photos capture only our love and the best moments of our life, you would never even know the elements were less than cooperative. As mentioned previously, due to the weather on our wedding day 99% of our photos had to be fully indoors. Every single photos was even better than we could imagine. We were spoiled with being able to get a few awesome stunning outdoor shots when the rain broke for a little bit during our reception. Lizzie came with two additional photographers day off, Jacky and Hannah, that worked seamlessly with her to help towards our stunning lifelong memories. If you want to add a vendor to your wedding team that will ensure you have the day of your dreams to look back on forever, run don’t walk to book Lizzie.

My passion for photography started at a very young age. Polaroid,Kodak, disposable cameras anything I could get my hands on for as long as I can remember. After working for several years in photojournalism and editing I decided to make the switch to a full time wedding photographer in 2010. I haven’t looked back since. I love the rush and excitement of the wedding day. The ability to meet new people and travel new places. Every weekend I get to experience different families, friends, foods and cultures. It’s not a job it’s a gift. My gift in return to you is images I pour my heart and soul into.

I can't say enough good things about Meg. Not only was she just lovely to correspond with leading up to our engagement photos, but she did a PHENOMINAL job. She made us feel so comfortable and cute during our session, and her pictures came out AMAZING. She's the perfect photographer if you want natural, documentary style photographs that really just bring out your love and joy for each other. 10/10 would recommend!!

I’m a New York raised / Alaska braised 5’0″ multi-passionate, photographer and filmmaker – I can appreciate the grit of a city, but I also have a small-town heart. I’m layers of hard work, deep empathy, and a Roseanne cackle-laugh. I’m all about having my cake, eating it too, and sharing some with you. I believe in celebrating family & friends, NY pizza, actin’ a fool, editing my photos to candid perfection (mostly this), and skipping the small talk.

Megan is an absolute pleasure to work with!! I'm always excited to work with her because I know that the process will be seamless and her quality of work is like no others! And not only is she super talented, but a joy to be around!!

My couples mean the world to me. I love hearing their stories, what makes them tick, and the things that are important to them. It’s my goal to capture them exactly the way they are; how they crack jokes, poke fun, dance together, hold one another. I’m there to capture the genuine tears, the laughs, how you just fit so well together. With directive posing, I bring out real chemistry and personalities. With my laid back vibe, I’ll ensure even the photo-heavy parts of the day are a breeze. I believe every single part of a wedding should be a blast and that every couple should be celebrated in their own unique way.

I could not have asked for a better person to capture my wedding! On our wedding day, it poured rain and I was absolutely devastated that the outdoor wedding I had been dreaming of was not happening. As I was sitting there faced with that reality, about to ruin my makeup with tears, Andrea swooped in like a superhero and genuinely made me feel like the rain was a good thing. She was the only voice of reason that made me feel like everything was still perfect. She ran around in the rain with us all day capturing the most gorgeous photos and I didn’t feel like I missed out at all. She was prepared with clear umbrellas and we actually had fun! She is also just so talented, the pictures and the saturation are just absolutely gorgeous, and not only that but she also has an absolute talent for capturing joy and movement. All my vendors have chosen to use her photos from my wedding on their websites, seriously just hire her!!!

The hype is real future brides and grooms! Jess and Jose at La Vie Studios are the real deal. The only way you'll go wrong is if you dislike quality, wonderful humans, and amazing wedding/engagement pictures. Here's why... Our wedding pictures and video came out phenomenal! The quality and talent these two have is beyond. I love their style and approach to photography. Business-wise—They were quick and seamless with communication and logistics. They not only work well together but with the entire wedding team (wedding coordinator, stylist, chef, you name it). Also, they give the best recommendations for other wedding services—they will not steer you wrong! Thanks to them we had the best DJ and danced for 3 straight hours. My husband and I absolutely love Jess and Jose from the moment we met them. They take the time to get to know their couples and it honestly makes a difference. We love them and will forever recommend La Vie Studios. Even if Jess and Jose don't get to shoot your wedding, I trust their photographers because I trust them to the max, so I wouldn't turn them down if they aren't available for your day! So with that, we hope you highly consider La Vie Studios for your wedding photos and video!

I've been photographing weddings since 2010 and it's something that I feel incredibly fortunate to do. It really is remarkable to be able to combine my love for photography and storytelling in capturing the stories of so many wonderful couples in a genuine and authentic manner over the past 10 years. I currently reside in Brooklyn, New York with my wife, our daughter and our two cats. When I'm not photographing weddings you can find me exploring the streets of New York City with my camera, enjoying a good cup of coffee, visiting art galleries, and spending time outdoors.

James was fantastic. Really easy to work with and so helpful especially since my partner and I really didn't know what we wanted or should ask for. James was so nice, patient, and really guided us through the whole process and kept so calm on the wedding day, it made us feel calm. Im not a fan of kissing photos and I don't know what magic James has because he made me like a photo of me kissing my fiance. James is amazingly efficient with his time and made the whole wedding day photo shoot quick and we ended up having extra time.

I photograph wedding and lifestyle sessions that are genuine and natural. The moments caught in time that represent you. I love working with clients to create the perfect outfits, timeline, and plan so they can be fully present. Enjoying every candid moment, effortlessly. I really love people. Maybe it's the way God made me or that my grandma Irene worked tirelessly to make sure every single person she came in contact with felt known and loved. I have a passion for making you feel beautiful and ready to take on the world. Your story is worth capturing.

Emily is not only an amazing photographer, but also an amazing person! From our engagement session to detail meetings to our wedding day, working with Emily was a dream. She is so sweet, organized and fun to be around. We typically aren't "picture people", but Emily made us and our family/friends feel so comfortable. At one point, Emily stopped eating her dinner (and essentially her only "break" of the day) to run across the lobby to capture me holding my recently-born niece. Beyond just being an amazing person, she is so talented. Our photographs of both our engagement session and wedding are absolutely stunning and timeless and everything we could have hoped for. She does an amazing job capturing everything from the details to the big moments.... and there are so. many. pictures that she gets back to you so quickly. We cannot recommend her enough and would choose her over and over again!

Born and raised in New York City, I became a people's person at a very young age. I always enjoyed seeing people laugh and smile and have a knack for getting along with just about anyone. Music was my first creative venture. I became a music studio engineer and Entertainment Business Bachelor. As a career, I initially loved working on sound for film the most, which later lead to videography. After living in Los Angeles for a few years I decided to do more in regards to film and learned Cinematography and videography editing. While living in London, my love for cinema also extended to photography.

We hired Hunter to capture engagement shots before our big day. He is professional and has great communication. He captured stellar photos of us on the sandy beaches of FL. Our proofs were stunning. Don't waste any time and book Hunter ASAP!

You can call me Jem. The first think you'll notice about me is my accent. Originally from Sydney Australia, I followed love to the other side of the planet. I've been photographing weddings since 2010 after I was asked by a friend if I would be their wedding photographer and I haven't found another job that has made me feel quite the same way as Wedding Photography.

We recently had the pleasure of working with Jem for our wedding, and the experience was beyond amazing! From the initial consultation (over drinks!) to the final delivery of photos, Jem was professional, creative, and truly passionate about capturing every special moment. On the big day, Jem made us feel completely at ease, blending seamlessly with our friends & family while also taking charge to ensure all the important shots were captured. The quality of the photos is stunning—every shot feels candid yet perfectly composed, capturing the essence of our celebration. She also listened to our vision and incorporated those ideas into the photos beautifully. Her attention to detail and ability to capture not just moments, but emotions, really stood out. We couldn’t be happier with the results and highly recommend Jem to anyone looking for a talented, personable, and FUN wedding photographer. Jem truly made our day unforgettable!
