Daria Orlova Photography was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From the moment we first connected, Daria and Connor were efficient, unflapped, and good-humored in their communication, putting us at ease throughout the entire process. Their work has an Old Hollywood style that is both classic and romantic, perfectly capturing the authentic joy and love of our special day.

Hi, I'm Kevin. I love capturing my images with natural light and my favorite time in the day for it would be sunrise and sunset. That's my motivation for my photography.

We worked with Kathryn for our October 2024 Hindu/Jewish blended wedding and were so happy with our decision!! We spoke with MANY photographers during the planning process trying to decide who fit our style and personality leading up to our wedding. Neither of us feel super comfortable in front of the camera so it was important to us that we found someone who truly fit us and what we were looking for. Kathryn's warmth, adventurous spirit, and genuine curiosity about us as a couple really stood out, and we immediately knew she was who we wanted to work with. We had a large wedding with many Hindu/Jewish traditions making the day busy & hectic, but Kathryn's professionalism and calm attitude made us feel at ease. We really appreciated how on top of it she was, sticking to our timeline and facilitating our rather large (and rowdy!) group, all while making the staged photos seamless and the candids from the reception/baraat so special and a true representation our special day. The colors are just magnificent, and we had many guests compliment her work, fun nature, and professionalism throughout the night. Thank you Kathryn for making our day so wonderful!!

Hey there, I'm Emma! I am an outgoing and free-spirited photographer living in Manhattan (but born & raised in the Midwest! My heart longs for creating art and telling remarkable stories. I love a good trip to the farmers market, a wine night with my friends, and spending time with my loved ones. Emma Melin Studios is queer-owned and is an inclusive wedding vendor!

Awarded Best of Zola
Emma was awesome to work with. Communicating with her from the beginning of the process was super clear, prompt, and professional. She was easy to talk to and has a casual style that I appreciate, while still guiding us through the process and making sure we were on track with scheduling, deciding on details for the day, etc. Of all of our vendors, she was by far the most organized. The quality of her work is simply gorgeous and she managed to make us look much cooler than we really are! She captured all the candid moments we had hoped for, and we were amazed at how quickly she got through our posed photos so we could just enjoy the rest of our wedding day. My dad even commented, "Wow, I don't know when you guys had time to get all of these!" after seeing the gallery. We also had a laundry list of family/wedding party pairings and we got through them all promptly after the ceremony, without a ton of fuss, which is exactly as we'd requested. She pulled us aside after dinner when the sun was at the perfect height to get a few more photos, and they're some of my favorites despite only taking us away from the party for about 5 minutes. The preview gallery came SO fast (I believe it was within a day or two) and the pics were just amazing. She was so accommodating of anything we wanted to do, and also had suggestions whenever we weren't sure what we wanted. I also requested to get a couple photos before our final gallery was done so that my mom could use them for Christmas cards and she was so accommodating of that request and sent them right away. We had a great experience and are so happy with our final gallery. Thanks, Emma!!

Rebeca and Andrew were great! From the moment we first reached out to them about booking, they have always been very genuine and helpful. Rebeca was very good with remembering what shots & poses I wanted. We ran behind on timing due to other reasons so I was worried we wouldn't get all the pictures done in time before the ceremony but they were great at making sure we got what we wanted. We got over 100 sneak peak photos a few days after the wedding and so far we love everything! Cannot wait to see more and would recommend R&A to anyone! Also highly recommend doing your engagement photos with them as it was a great way to get to know them & get comfortable before the big day!

Hi! I’m Justin (he/him) and I’m here to affirm your love, make you feel like a fucking rockstar, and dance like a total fool. Oh, and take so many gorgeous photos of y’all. Obvs. My style blends both documentary photojournalism and fine art photography: coaching folks who are shy in front of the camera, then stepping back to capture authentic moments uninterrupted. I’ve been lucky enough to have my work published by A Practical Wedding, The New York Times, GLAMOUR, People Magazine and many other fabulous outlets. I'm a stereotypical Capricorn that loves drag shows, campy horror films, every dog I meet, and Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups.

The man is a wizard with the camera, able to capture moments and poses you never imagined possible. The photographer for our wedding was the one thing we knew we would need to splurge on to make sure we felt comfortable and happy on our wedding day. Justin spent so much time working with us on exactly what we wanted while at the same time, truly getting to know us and my god, does it show. Justin was able to capture the true essence of ourselves in our wedding photos, to the point where we started tearing up just looking at them. We cannot recommend this BEAUTIFUL human enough.

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. Woman/LGBTQIA+ Owned

Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment we booked MJC IMAGE, Mary was incredibly communicative and friendly. She did both our engagement shoot and wedding and detailed everything clearly and worked with us to find the right package for our needs. She went above and beyond just photographing our wedding - she played coordinator and was always there to make sure my husband and I were taken care of. Mary is not only a great photographer, but she took something we were dreading, pictures, and made the experience enjoyable. She has a calming presence and was great to work with throughout our special day. We are thrilled with the beautiful photos she captured that we will cherish forever.

I don’t even know where to start when it comes to Shelby. To put into perspective how much I absolutely love her work, we not only hired her for our city hall wedding, but also hired her and her partner Jordan (videographer) for our big wedding. They also just photographed my cousin Kate’s wedding this past weekend. Kate met Shelby and Jordan at my big wedding, and absolutely fell in love with not only their work, but them as people. My partner and I aren’t good at taking photos. We are very awkward, and feel uncomfortable being the center of attention. But Shelby made it SO EASY and SO FUN for us. Not only were our photos beyond our expectations, the video Jordan created for us was absolutely out of this world. They are such incredible human beings, and both so talented. I plan to use Shelby and Jordan for every event in the future.

Hey there! My name is Emilee, and I am a Minnesota-native living in NYC! I've been photographing people and events for 15 years. I shoot families, couples, individuals, and pets, but my passion lies in wedding photography. I love capturing the whirlwind of a couples' big day, and seeing the love that is shared between them and all their wedding guests. It's magical and wonderful every. single. time. My current markets are Minnesota and New York, but I'm available to travel anywhere in the US and the world for additional fees!

Awarded Best of Zola
What a dream Emilee was to work with, from start to finish. OUR CEREMONY PARTY: we decided on a private, courthouse elopement on a Wednesday, a 60 person reception party on a Friday. In both, our biggest priority was having a photographer capture the intimate, joyful small details. We went with Emilee because of her eye for the beauty in the small things. She captured both our days perfectly. DOCUMENTARY STYLE: Emilee was perfect behind the scenes, capturing beautiful moments of our friends and family, small details of the courthouse with just us. I look back at some of these photos and ask "how did she even get that?!" She has such an eye. POSED: We had about 20 minutes dedicated to posed, family photos during our reception. Emilee had our families relaxed and laughing, quickly swapping members in and out. In some newlywed photos, we sought her advice for how to pose. She gave quick direction, made us feel confident, and always found the perfect light. COMMUNICATION SPEED: Delivered on every promise, quick replies. Emilee was 15 minutes early to both locations, we never had to worry. PERSONALLY: We met with Emilee about 4 months before our big days. We had coffee, talked about our vision and our biggest priorities. She immediately felt like a friend, and knew she was firmly on our team. If you're looking for a photographer to capture not only beautiful photos of yourself, but more importantly, the feeling in every room, Emilee is the photographer for you. We recommend wholeheartedly, and can't wait for another occasion to work with her. Sincerely, Mara James

I specialize in creating uniquely personalized images that will set your photos apart from the rest. I am stealthy and observant, catching all of the little moments that end up meaning so much more. Feedback from clients includes my seamless workflow and calm demeanor made for a stress-free photo experience and that I achieved the perfect mix of natural and directed moments that do not come off as stiff or posed. In addition to photography and videography I also specialize in designing unique "photobooth" sets for you and your guests to have stylized photos without tracking down the photographer.

My experience working with Bee Roll Media was amazing. My wife and I both needed headshots for new jobs we were starting, and also wanted to do a fun couples shoot for holiday cards. The photographer Brianna made us feel super comfortable in front of the camera and styled us to look our best. I got many compliments from colleagues for how professional my headshot was and was asked if they could get the photographer’s contact to do their own. As for the couples shoot, we had tons of fun. The studio had an awesome retro vibe that totally fit our aesthetic and we felt like we were models in an 80’s catalogue. She even shot on film to boost the retro look! People loved the holiday card we sent out and so did we! 10/10 would definitely recommend!

I'm in love with human emotions, either it's laughing till it hurts or tears of happiness. When your man hugs you so strong, that you can't breathe or when your dad is crying (for the first time in his life!) listening to your vows at the altar. I do believe, that these un-staged moments are more meaningful than classy portraits on a sunset (but no worries, you'll plenty of both!) If you feel like we are on the same page - let's talk! Write me a few words about who you are, tell me your story and let's create something beautiful together!

Awarded Best of Zola
If you are reading this, go book Dasha! The wedding photographer was the most important vendor for us. After talking to many photographers, we ended up booking Dasha and that's the best decision we've ever made. Through our engagement session, we got so comfortable in front of her camera and the photos turned out great. Ahead of the wedding, I had a final meeting with Dasha and you could tell that she cares about her couples and gives good advice on the timeline. On the wedding day, her professionalism and creativity made the day so easy for us, and we didn't need to give her a long shortlist because we trusted her. When we received the full gallery, we were so BLOWN AWAY. The editing style speaks for itself. We also loved the way she documented our special - it feels very natural and authentic. Many of our families and friends asked us who our photographer was, and we cannot recommend Dasha enough. Thank you, Dasha!!

After working 10+ years in corporate America in NYC, California and traveling the globe, I found myself wanting more than what the traditional career path had set for me. I stumbled into photography while I was on maternity leave with my oldest and started a side hustle that I had no idea was going to turn into a complete career change years later. From the very first wedding I shot, I knew I was onto something. And ever since then, I haven't looked back.

Awarded Best of Zola
Kim-Trang Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From the start, Kim’s communication style was ahead of the game - she was warm, friendly, and we were excited to have her on our team. Kim is talented and committed and truly captured the joy and intimacy of our special day. She connected with us and our family in a way that felt more like having a friend there than just a vendor. One of our favorite touches was the sweet Polaroids she left with our wedding cards - the perfect surprise when we were feeling a bit of the post-wedding blues. We couldn't be happier with the sneak peeks we've seen so far and can't wait to see the full gallery. Kim-Trang Photography went above and beyond to make our wedding day truly unforgettable.

I’m a wedding photographer drawn to quiet glances, soft light, and the kind of love that lingers long after the day is done. My work blends cinematic stillness with emotion—documenting each celebration with a poet’s eye and a romantic heart. I don’t just capture what happened—I preserve how it felt. Based in New York and traveling worldwide, I create timeless images that feel like memory and magic, carefully told and deeply felt.

After our first photographer fell through, we found Caz and luckily he happened to be available on our wedding date. From the very first contact, he was incredibly responsive (super important to us), friendly and professional. His work looked great so we were excited - then we found out he was featured in Vogue! We were stoked. He was amazing to work with on the wedding day - punctual, friendly, got all the requested shots, and the whole bridal party loved him. We got our pictures back today - and they’re so much better than we could have dreamed of. It’s no wonder he was featured in Vogue - his work is artistic, candid, and beautiful. Thank you Caz for giving us such beautiful memories so we can relive the best day of our lives.

I can’t say enough amazing things about Daniel! My husband originally found him on Snappr for our engagement shoot back in January 2024 and he was so incredible to work with, we just knew we had to book him for our wedding!! He made us feel so comfortable and made 2 awkward people look INCREDIBLE in front of the camera. He captured the most important moments of my life thus far and he did it so beautifully. All my guests loved him and appreciated all the fun pictures he took of them on the dance floor too!! LOL! I really can’t thank him enough for being such an important part of my day.

Emma Cleary Photo and Video 

5.0

New York, NY
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,000

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.

From the moment we first spoke with Emma Cleary Photo and Video, we knew we were in good hands. Their communication style was clear, prompt, detail-oriented, and educational, putting us at ease throughout the entire planning process. The quality of their work was truly exceptional - the photos they captured were comfortable, beautiful, magical, ethereal, and so clean. They asked all the right questions, from inquiring about golden hour and sunset shots to handling a multitude of family and necessary photos on the day. Most importantly, Emma, the owner, was incredible. I couldn't have planned and executed my wedding without her services and immediate attention to detail, the timeline, the photos needed, her suggestions and discussions, and the seamless edits and delivery of the final products. I highly recommend trusting this business with your event or special day - they were everything I didn't know I needed, and I would hire them again in a heartbeat.

Coco J. Photography 

5.0

New York, NY
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $5,200

A photographer with 10 years of experience specializing in love stories, portraiture, and immortalizing a moment filled to the brim with feeling. I’m French, which means I have aways been attracted to beauty, art, and romance & love to have a good time; my photography embodies this. When I am not behind the camera I enjoy eating good food and drinking wine (again, I’m French), going on roadtrips with my wonderful boyfriend, Max, and cuddling up with a good book - my favorite is The Pillars of the Earth - and my cutie pie cat, Jack.

Coco has a way of combining an artistic, personal touch with a natural photojournalistic style that gives the perfect wedding photos. Nothing is overdone or too staged or cheesy, and the photos evoke a timeless quality with all the human emotions packed in. Her down to earth energy, professionalism, and fun personality are an added bonus - an absolute pleasure to work with. She helped us plan by having several meetings before the day to discuss our wants, key moments we wanted captured, brainstorm ideas, etc. It's the one aspect of planning I never felt stressed about. And all of our guests wouldn't stop commenting on how great the photos were! I have hired her for my wedding, for personal photos, and have recommended her to multiple friends who have walked away happy and satisfied.

Milieu 

5.0

New York, NY
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,000

What do you imagine your wedding to be like? Imagination is a nice gift we have. It helps us building our identities and shaping our individual uniqueness. Imagining carries a degree of anticipation, depending on our past experiences and who we are, of how something that hasn't happened yet is going to be when it actually happens. Like traveling to a place where we've never been before and we take photos of its landscapes and people living there: we tend to capture in those photographs how we had imagined that place. A wedding is a destination in the journey of life, perhaps the most important one.

Awarded Best of Zola
Salvatore (Milieu) made our wedding day even more special than we could have expected. We LOVED his beautiful and creative ways of capturing our most special moments (if you look at his portfolio, you will know exactly what I mean). He is so very kind, professional, and made us so comfortable. He was so accommodating and helped us come up with a way to get all of the photos we wanted within the time frame we had to work with. I can go on and on about how much we loved working with Salvatore! He is truly a 1 of a kind find and we HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend him!
