Since 2014, I have been working as a professional photographer, from dance competitions, to headshots, press events, engagements, weddings, corporate, and picture day in NYC public schools.

Not only did she brave a cold night on the brooklyn bridge, but the photos came out absolutely magical. She captured the moment perfectly, and even little side moments with family and friends. She captured every organic moment from tears to laughter, in a beautiful and truthful way. We are so happy with our photos and can’t wait to look back on them for the many years ahead.”

  • Starts at $5,000

Being married for over 25 years, we bring an understanding of real love and partnership into every wedding we document. We believe the best wedding photos don't come from perfect posing-they come from being fully present. Because the truth is, your wedding day isn't a photoshoot. It's a blur of emotion, energy, nerves, laughter, and moments you didn't even see happening. Our job is to catch all of it. Not by staging it. Not by interrupting it. But by paying attention in a way most people don't.

“My husband and I got married at Red Maple Vineyard in May 2025 and Rebecca photographed our special day. We also did an engagement shoot prior that was included in the cost of our package. We are both very camera shy and this is the first time we have ever taken professional photos. Rebecca kept our photos, lighthearted, helped to pose us, and made everything feel very natural and comfortable. I have never felt more confident than in her photos. She knew exactly how to capture the emotions of the day and the amazing hudson valley scenery at Red Maple even though it poured. Rebecca is genuine and truly cares about her clients. She even stayed late while I changed into my second dress to get some extras of us. She and her husband truly go above and beyond for their clients and have a passion and talent for photography and videography. Couldn’t recommend them more and will be working with them in the future!”

It poured rain the few hours before the ceremony, Carrie had the perfect backup plan for where to do our first look and made the whole experience of photos of us and our families seamless. Working with her was also fun, which was something we hoped to find in our photographer because we felt really comfortable in all our interactions with her.

It’s close to where I grew up and where my family lives in the Catskills. I love EVERYTHING about a wedding day; the anticipation, the joy, the laughter, the happy tears, and the simple fact that everyone you know is gathered to celebrate with you. I have had the honor of celebrating with so many couples and friends and family and it gives me so much joy. I want you to have the BEST day!! So tell me about your loves, your plans, and let’s start telling your story!

Awarded Best of Zola
“We can’t say enough amazing things about Kristin Lavigne of Kalz Photography. We have been absolutely raving about her since the wedding — she truly exceeded every expectation. Kristin captured the most stunning photos of us, which is saying a lot coming from Travis, who normally hates taking pictures. She made us feel completely comfortable and natural in front of the camera, and the results are beyond anything we imagined. Her energy was great and immediately put everyone at ease. Kristin is attentive, kind, caring, fun, and incredibly talented. Her eye for detail is unbelievable — she knew exactly how to capture each moment and turn it into the perfect shot. She didn’t just document our wedding; she elevated it. She made our special day even more special, and we know we’ll cherish these photos for the rest of our lives. Her assistant, Arianna, and her husband were also fantastic — the three of them worked together seamlessly and were everywhere all day, capturing every moment without ever feeling intrusive. They were the perfect team, and we are so grateful we got to work with them. Choosing Kalz Photography was one of the best decisions we made. We couldn’t be happier, and we recommend Kristin with all our hearts.”

Awarded Best of Zola
“As an anxious girl who knew nothing about wedding planning, I sent out about a million emails to photographers and planners. I had many conversations with many kind vendors. However, my first video call with Jenna and I knew she was my girl. I NEVER felt like just another bride and task on her list, she truly became my girlfriend and confidant. Jenna's team treats you exactly the same. Day of my wedding, I had ZERO stress. I trusted my team at vow & vision so deeply that I knew if anything went wrong in the background, it would be handled before I ever knew it occurred. Jenna & Gabriella made my wedding day and wedding planning process perfect in every single way. They wiped my tears of joy (and stress!), showed up for my every need, and made me feel truly loved, cared for, and safe on my wedding day. I truly cannot recommend them enough nor express into words exactly everything they did for me. Rachel, my content creator, made every bit of my day so fun and effortless and sent me all of the footage PLUS multiple beautifully curated clips of my day within 24 hours. If you are a stressed out bride looking for planners, photography, or content creation, I am telling you choosing Vow & Vision will bring you not only all of that, but a girlhood that lasts a lifetime!”

Hi, I’m Bridget — but you can call me Bee, cause that’s what my friends call me! And since we’re basically already best friends, let me tell you a secret: taking pictures isn’t even the thing I love most about my job. Now, don’t get me wrong, I’m as obsessed with taking gorgeous, dripping-in-light photos that you’ll look back on for ages as much as the next photographer. But what I really love? Meeting the most kind-hearted people and getting to know them on a level much deeper than the typical client-photographer relationship.

Awarded Best of Zola
“We feel incredibly lucky to have had Bridget as our wedding photographer. Looking back, she was one of the best investments we made…not just because of the stunning photos, but because of the experience she created from start to finish. After seeing her photograph other weddings at our venue, I knew she would be the perfect fit. From our very first call, she understood our style, and her organization and professionalism immediately put me at ease. She captured our day so beautifully that looking through our gallery still brings me to tears. Bridget describes herself as your "hype woman," and that couldn't be more accurate. She celebrated us throughout the entire engagement process, always offering encouragement, guidance, and thoughtful advice. We didn't book an engagement session since we had already done one while we were engaged abroad, so instead Bridget took us out to lunch before the wedding so we could get to know each other and feel comfortable together. That personal touch meant so much and made our wedding day feel even more seamless. Throughout the wedding day, she was incredibly encouraging without ever being intrusive. We never felt like we were stuck in awkward poses. Instead, she guided us with movement and prompts that brought out genuine laughter and emotion, perfectly capturing the joy and excitement of the day. She kept everything organized, gave us clear guidance leading up to the wedding, and made the entire photography process feel effortless. I truly believe Bridget is an incredible value, and our photos prove it. Her attention to detail, artistic eye, and signature style made every image feel timeless. In an age where so many people rely on their phones to document special moments, it's incredibly meaningful to have someone with the talent and vision to preserve your memories so beautifully. These photos aren't just beautiful images for social media…they genuinely captured the essence of one of the most important days of our lives. We are absolutely obsessed with our photos and couldn't be more grateful. Thank you, Bridget, for giving us memories we'll treasure forever!!”

Hi friend! I'm Becca. Ever since I was little, I wanted to listen to others stories and share them with others. As a result of a college photography class that I loved and my dad's love of nature photography, I was gifted a camera after graduation, and I never stopped! I started taking photos at a performing arts center and became mesmerized with capturing joy. I have been in the wedding industry since I was fourteen and have been taking photos professionally since 2019.

Awarded Best of Zola
“I cannot GUSH enough about Becca. She was hands down the MVP of our wedding day. In the midst of wedding planning busyness, Becca led a thorough meeting with us (the couple) going over the day-of schedule, and covering an exhaustive comprehensive list of all possible photos, helping us prioritize the ones we needed and letting go of those that may have ended up stressing us out to try to take! She made sure to be sensitive to all our hopes for photos, family dynamics, and more. I (the bride) was sick on the wedding day and had to make some adjustments to the day-of schedule, and Becca not only adjusted with such grace and flexibility, but also offered great game-time ideas to make sure we got all the photos we wanted with even less time! During the wedding, Becca stayed even longer than scheduled, was so patient but commanding with getting family photos organized, and stayed in the background throughout the day even though she was right by my (the bride!) side getting the best candid photos. That way, I was able to feel supported AND even more relaxed, she was so nimble, positive, and masterful. As I’ve said since the beginning of working with her, she is simply the BEST.”

Photographing weddings and elopements is a privilege that I do not take lightly. I treat each moment with as much care as if it were my own! While I am happy to take on weddings of any size, I specialize in intimate weddings or engagement sessions where I can embrace a documentary, candid approach. My favorite moments to capture are those quiet, unplanned interactions. I adore the small details. The moments that sometimes get overlooked but often times help tell the story of your wedding day the most. I thrive with couples who aren’t afraid to be silly and embrace the moments as they come as opposed to forcing it.

She really is so talented at what she does by capturing all of the in-between, authentic moments that you want to remember forever.

Hi, I'm Jaci Berkopec! A self portrait of me would include a frozen pizza, caesar salad bag, and a bottle of white wine. But more importantly I am a wedding, lifestyle and adventure elopement photographer based out of NYC. Weddings and elopements are one of my passions because witnessing love and marriage is one of the most beautiful things we can witness. When shooting with me, expect to have tons of fun and lots of laughs because I like to be weird! Life is too short to be normal! I photograph all types of love.

“My wife and I celebrated our wedding on September 19, 2026, at the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, NY, and we want to take a moment to recognize our incredible photographer, Jaci Berkopec. From the very moment we began this journey with her, she made us feel like queens. The way she captured our wedding day is exactly what we dreamed of. Not only did she capture all of our colors, details, and outdoor lighting perfectly, but she consistently made every person in front of her camera feel comfortable and completely at ease. Jaci has such a warm, genuine, and welcoming personality that it never felt like we were being “posed” or photographed. She has a way of making you laugh, relax, and forget that a camera is even there. Every vulnerable moment in front of the camera felt lighter because of her. She made us feel beautiful, confident, and most importantly, like ourselves. What meant so much to us was how naturally she connected with not only us, but our family and friends as well. She was professional while still feeling like someone we had known forever. She brought such a calming and positive energy to the entire day, and we truly believe that energy is reflected in every photo. Looking through our gallery feels like reliving our wedding day all over again. She captured not just what our wedding looked like, but what it felt like — the joy, the love, the laughter, and all of the little moments we may have otherwise missed. We are beyond grateful that Jaci was the person behind the camera for such an important day in our lives. We could not recommend her more highly and feel so lucky that we found her!”

Hi everyone! I live in Upstate NY with my husband and I've been a photographer for 4 years. I started off with people I know but now I'm starting to expand my business to the public. I absolutely love helping people tell their story through photos and it puts a smile on my face as well.

“From our first conversation with Molly Baker Photo, we knew we'd made the right choice. Molly was responsive to our questions and truly listened to what we wanted for our wedding day, making the entire planning process feel effortless. On the day of, she moved through our celebration with such ease, capturing the quiet moments between us and our loved ones that we'll treasure forever. Her eye for light and emotion is incredible—the photos are absolutely stunning and feel so natural. We were blown away by how she managed to get every shot we hoped for while also finding angles and details we didn't even know we wanted. Molly went above and beyond what we expected, and we can't recommend her highly enough.”

Hi, I’m Sarah (she/they), a wedding photographer based in the Adirondacks of New York. I photograph weddings with care, intention, and a deep respect for the moments that matter most for couples of all identities and love stories.

“Hawthorn Photography was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding! From the very first meeting, Sarah and Drew were so easy to talk to and we felt like we connected with them very quickly. They are very professional but do not make you feel pressured at all - Sarah has great ideas and really hypes you up throughout the process. Drew always found creative ways to shoot the day and Sarah was there for me every step of the way, even when I needed quick help with my dress. Sarah is so dependable and the pictures they captured showcase both of their talents and our love so well. I'd pick Hawthorn Photography for photos for every occasion and in every lifetime!”

From NY to TX, then back again... I started my photography adventure 10 years ago in a small studio in upstate, New York. Since then, I've traveled across the country, taking pictures the entire time. I've captured a lifetime of memories in pictures, and now, I hope I can do the same for you! I specialize in weddings and portraiture, with experience in real estate photography as well! I love helping my customers make memories to cherish for years to come. When I'm not taking pictures, I am working as a nurse and dreaming of the days when I can put my toes in the sand with my nieces in Cape Cod.

“Katharine M. Photography was amazing to work with for our wedding. Katharine communicated very well throughout the entire process, so there was never a question in terms of what was happening and how it was happening. She was right there every time I needed her, which was incredibly helpful. Katharine is an amazing photographer who had great suggestions regarding locations for photos. She was easy to talk to, gave great directions, had a very laid-back and amazing energy, and was even there to help me get into my dress. I loved working with Katharine and would highly recommend her to any couple planning their wedding.”
