We can’t say enough great things about Billy and Katie! From the very beginning, Billy brought such a personal and thoughtful touch to our wedding experience. He reached out proactively during the planning process to make sure everything was set for the big day, offering helpful input and flexibility that made us feel completely at ease. On the wedding day, both Billy and Katie were absolutely amazing. They were not only timely and professional, but also worked seamlessly with our coordinator to help keep everything running smoothly. They weren’t just behind the camera—they were genuinely helpful, lending a hand wherever it was needed and making the day feel even more special. One of the most impressive touches was that Billy had photos ready and on display at the reception for our guests to enjoy, adding such a thoughtful and unique element to the evening. He also surprised us with a roll of 35mm film photos he took during the day, which captured timeless and nostalgic moments that we will cherish forever. He delivered our full set of photos incredibly quickly, and they came out beautifully—we couldn’t be happier with the results. So many of our guests commented on how great Billy and Katie were—friendly, accommodating, and just a joy to have around. They helped keep the energy up and the timeline on track, all while capturing every special moment. We feel incredibly lucky to have had them as part of our day and would recommend them to anyone in a heartbeat!

Hullo! So you're gettin' hitched (YaaY!), but you’re not super into the idea of the overly-manicured wedding. A+ for you, because this is not your parents’ wedding photography. I'm a farm kid who floats between the journalism and art worlds. I love telling stories as much as I love listening to the stories of others. I’m the type of person who makes up musicals for my own amusement and nurses a soft spot for sci-fi and fantasy. If I’m not taking photos, I’m usually dancing. Or cooking. It’s possible I may have a baking addiction and try to mitigate the damage by forcing the goods on loved ones.

Celia was incredible to work with. My (now) husband and I are usually pretty awkward in front of a camera so it was really important for us to find a photographer we felt comfortable with. I knew Celia would be that person as soon as we first connected! She's such a warm personality and a very calming presence to have around on a day that can be quite stressful. She did a phenomenal job capturing all of the candid moments of the day and then gave us some direction when she saw a cool opportunity for a shot, which is exactly what we were looking for. The photos she took are stunning and turned out better than we could have ever imagined. We both still cry when we look at them. Highly Highly recommend working with The Lovely Lens for your wedding!!

She only surrounds herself with people that make every moment so special, and shares all her values and for that i will forever trust her with capturing all the special moments in my life. Trusting Val with documentation of your special moments will forever make them that much more special, and cherished. She truly cares about making everyone's experiences their own and goes to beyond measures to make sure you feel comfortable, and checks in frequently to make sure you have no reservations.

We cannot recommend Artur enough. He was our photographer for engagement photos as well as our wedding photos, and was able to memorialize the important event with more beauty than I could have dreamed. He was professional, kind and when I told him we had no idea how to take photos, he was our guide, kindly helping capture everything we wanted, and so much more. The quality and turn around time has been incredible. I feel so thankful!

I'm SO glad you're here! I'm Abby, a photographer born and raised in the heart of the Finger Lakes (and will never let anyone forget it- proud Keuka girl for life!) currently living in Rochester, NY. I'm a dog-loving, sunflower obsessed, enneagram two, people person. And newly married to the sweetest of sweet husbands.

Awarded Best of Zola
What can I possibly express with words alone about Abby Arnold and her team? Abby is an exceptional human being and professional. She feels simultaneously like an unknowable entity and a long time friend or family member. She makes her clients feel extremely comfortable while also being so well-organized and accommodating. She has excellent artistic direction. I barely had to do anything, and when I look at my photos I feel like I don't know myself. I have never looked so beautiful, I didn't know I could even take pictures like this! She and her team worked overtime to make all my dreams come true, and I will be forever grateful for their hard work and dedication. These photos of my family and friends, who are from all over the country, finally all together in one place, will be cherished for the rest of my life. I would hire Abby and her team a million zillion times over, and I think you should too. Give her the opportunity to read your late night emails with all your pinterest inspiration attached. Allow her to soothe your anxieties about not looking tall enough or not knowing how to pose. Watch in awe as she wrangles your unpredictable family members into one beautiful photo you will value for the rest of your days. She is amazingly talented and a great person to be around in general. I will be forever thankful!

Hi, I'm Jacalyn — the photographer behind Jacalyn Meyvis Photography in Rochester, NY and the Finger Lakes. Photos should be timeless. No trendy wedding filters here. On a day as special as this, you should remember all of the important moments. In a way you'll love both now and in 20 years.

Awarded Best of Zola
I am SO glad I chose Jacalyn to take our wedding photos! As someone much more comfortable behind the camera, I was determined to find someone I could really trust with my very specific vision. Jacalyn delivered and more! Jacalyn took photos on our wedding day and during our Vietnamese tea ceremony the night prior. We also asked her to add on Super 8 film for our wedding day - and it was worth every penny! (For shooting the Super 8, she was accompanied by her second shooter, Bekah, who was equally amazing!) Jacalyn is truly a professional through and through. She was extremely organized throughout the entire wedding planning process and kept communication open. On the wedding day, I was stressed about a lot of things - but the photos were not one of them! Throughout the day, she was able to capture so many special moments that I would never have even seen otherwise given how preoccupied my husband and I were. I am eternally grateful for her ability to capture such details through her work. She not only has a great eye and instinct, but her editing style is impeccable. It's so timeless and natural, and exactly what I wanted! My husband and I are already talking about booking subsequent photoshoots with her for anniversaries and future events.

She is a true handle-it professional that will have you feeling prepared and confident from first meeting through reception. She made a real effort to understand us as a couple and planned unique shots that reflected us and our wedding vision. She makes shooting comfortable and fun no matter how awkward you might feel in the beginning. Our plans for an outdoor ceremony ended up with cold and rain all day, but our photos with Loryn came out more stunning than we could’ve imagined - we get so many compliments. We truly can’t recommend her and her work enough!

I'm Matt at Little Vows Photography, and I specialize in micro weddings and elopements as well natural, organic portraiture. If you are planning a wedding of 50 or fewer people and want an intimate celebration, I may be the right choice for you. When it comes to portraiture, I strive for the session to feel relaxed and low-pressure, like friends hanging out to avoid posed images that feel overly stiff and stilted. I want to communicate well with people to understand the ways they are comfortable showing their love to create the most natural and beautiful images possible.

We could not have asked for a more incredible wedding photographer! Matt is easy to talk to, it felt like having another friend at the wedding. He did a wonderful job capturing all the big moments and little details without ever feeling intrusive. I can just feel the warmth, happiness, and joy every time I look at our wedding photos. Our families are also so so happy with how the photos came out! We are really grateful to have these memories captured so beautifully. If you're looking for a very personable photographer who is just really good at what he does, Matt is your guy!

Hey, I'm Kelsey! Thanks for being here! When I'm not behind the lens, you'll probably find me at my favorite sushi restaurant or hanging out at home with my husband & cats drinking a Starbucks Matcha Latte. You'll notice as soon as you meet me that height is something I'm lacking, but I promise that won't stop me from killin' it at your session. I started taking photography when I was a freshman in high school. My high school offered film photography & I immediately fell in love.

We looked around quite a bit before we went with Kelsey, and we're SO happy we did. From our first meeting, I was impressed by her clear communication, her calm demeanor, and her attention to detail. She was amazing day-of in keeping things running and pivoting when we needed to. We love how are photos turned out!

Rich Paprocki Photography

Rochester, NY
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,900

When I'm not working, you can find me hitting live shows or adventuring with my wife and cat, Riesling. About my work: 10+ years of experience shooting both on-location and in the studio. Use of off-camera lighting, which allows me to add a creative flair when natural light isn't quite enough. I’ll crawl through cattails, get pelted with silly string, and wade out waist deep in the ocean, just to get the perfect shot. My goal is to make YOU feel comfortable and at ease so we can create compelling imagery for your special occasion or event.

Rich was very professional and fun to work with. He showed genuine care and love for his work, and it came through in the resulting pictures. He was willing to be flexible and adjust as the weather changed the plans for the day. He was like a gun slinger with his two camera holsters. My mother was skeptical at first, but once she saw the pictures she was completely happy with the outcome. The last picture really shows his dedication to get The Shot!

Rochester, NY
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,450

Personally, I’ll totally take timeless and authentic over trendy any day. To me, authentic moments always make for more beautiful and personal photographs. Because of this, it’s truly important to me that your wedding pictures say something real about you and who you are as a couple at the beginning, on this day together.

We had such a great experience with Michael as our wedding photographer. He made planning and communication easy; very responsive and he encouraged us to meet a few times before the wedding. During these meetings we went over the schedule and any updates that should be added and Michael really spent time getting to know us and what we wanted from our pictures. On the wedding day, we felt well prepared for our schedule and confident that he would capture the moments and people that were important for us. Neither of us are comfortable being in front of a camera and both Michael and his second photographer, Devon, helped us have fun and relax. I would absolutely recommend him!
