“We had such a great experience with Enchanted Celebrations for our wedding! From the beginning, Summer was wonderful to work with. She was very responsive, helpful, and always quick to answer our questions throughout the planning process. Our photographer, Ash, was amazing. He was extremely professional, attentive, and so easy to work with. You can really see how devoted and passionate he is about his work and how much he cares about getting the perfect shots. He had great ideas throughout the day and made us feel completely taken care of. Even some of our friends noticed how great he was and commented on it afterward. Our videographer, Randolph, was also amazing. His enthusiasm and positive energy made us feel so comfortable and confident in front of the camera. He was very attentive throughout the day, and we could tell he genuinely cared about capturing all the important moments. The only thing I would recommend to future couples is that if you choose a specific photographer from their portfolio, ask Enchanted Celebrations to confirm that person’s availability before making your payment. We selected a photographer when we booked about eight months before our wedding, but around two weeks after booking, we were told that photographer wasn’t available. Their contract does state that if your selected photographer isn’t available, they can assign another photographer from those available, but I would have appreciated having the availability confirmed before we booked and paid. That being said, we ended up being extremely happy with Ash and Randolph. They were both wonderful to work with and made us feel like we were in great hands on such an important day. We can’t wait to see everything they captured. Thank you to the entire Enchanted Celebrations team! Her are pictures taken from Ash the photographer for the engagement shoot !”

“Paul was fantastic! He was the perfect photographer to have for our wedding, and we’d chose him again in a heartbeat. He was reliable, organized, professional, but most of all, he was very kind! We immediately felt comfortable working with him the moment we started planning together. Wedding day, he was almost also like our wedding coordinator, something we didn’t have. He helped keep us in time, know what the next thing was, and even stay present to each moment. His execution of photographing and the details he captured throughout the day, truly exceeded our expectations. The quality of the photos were stunning, and our family and friends still rave about not only them, but also him as a photographer, over a year later. The photos came out regal yet soft, and we loved how timeless they came out to be. We had him for the morning to take portraits of the bridesmaids then groomsmen, during and after the ceremony, couples portraits right after, and lastly the beginning parts of the reception, which included entrances, speeches, dancing, and the cake-cutting. I grew up with a photographer father, and a Filipino family that lives and breathes pictures, so I definitely had a taste. Paul was the perfect fit for us, and we definitely recommend you chose him for your next event!”

Welcome! I’m Anushka (friends call me Nush/Nushy), a Digital and Analog photographer serving the greater New York City Metro area. I specialize in photography for couples, intimate events, the arts, and general portraiture. My work is guided by a simple belief: the most powerful images are the ones that feel true. Whether it’s capturing quiet in-between moments or celebrating bold expression, I focus on preserving effortless, authentic memories and timeless beauty that will resonate for years to come. Let’s create something real, together.

Awarded Best of Zola
“Anushka is a natural talent behind the camera. Her eye for light, composition, and story is remarkable and it shows in every frame. She photographed our wedding shoot right after our courthouse ceremony in New York before our big celebration in Italy this September, and she delivered exactly the fairytale vintage editorial look we wanted. We built a Pinterest board together and she turned that inspiration into a clear plan, sending a timed schedule with locations and transitions so nothing felt rushed. From the first message she was organized, responsive, and thoughtful about light and timing. It absolutely poured the day of our shoot, umbrellas and all, and she powered through the elements without missing a beat. She found covered spots in the park and beautiful corners of the city and kept the whole experience lighthearted and fun. We are not big on posing and she made it feel natural with simple cues and small adjustments that never felt forced, even while we were juggling umbrellas. Her ability to capture light is impeccable. She moves with ease from digital to film and from indoor to outdoor settings, and the gallery reflects that range. Colors are true to life, and the black and white images are timeless. Beyond the photos, Anushka is a joy to be around. She is bubbly and friendly, connects with everyone, and puts you at ease the moment the camera comes out. She managed the timeline smoothly, kept us present, and still caught the tiny in-between moments that feel so personal. The final gallery is cohesive, flattering, and exactly our vision, with thoughtful composition and detail. Professional, prepared, and incredibly talented, she is also a light to be around. We are thrilled and so grateful.”

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
“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.”

I help couples stay present instead of performing. For 25 years, I've photographed weddings for people who care more about connection than perfection. Most photographers pose you. I build rapport first and guide gently, because people look their best being themselves. Before your wedding, we meet to discuss what matters. On the day, I protect your time so you focus on your people. I find the light, prompt gently, and capture what actually matters. You get both film and digital. The photos feel true to who you are and how your day felt.

“I cannot recommend Laura enough to photograph your special day! Laura was our wedding photographer this past June and was such a pleasure to work with. While in the process of picking a photographer, Laura and I chatted over Zoom and I was pleasantly surprised with how easy Laura was to talk to, as well as how organized she seemed with her planning. Leading up to the wedding Laura was very communicative and answered all my questions immediately. The day of the wedding she arrived right on time and was incredibly organized. Her second photographer, Bia, was also a pleasure to work with. She was professional and fun- the kids in our wedding party loved Bia and she was able to capture amazing pictures. My fiance and I were somewhat dreading all the group photos that a wedding entails, however Laura ran this process so smoothly we actually had fun taking the photos! We were blown away with the end results. The photos came out absolutely beautiful. Laura captured all the feelings of our special day in every one of her photos. We also received SO many photographs- quite impressive considering I barely even noticed Laura taking pictures while I was so wrapped up in the day. I have zero complaints and only wonderful things to say about Laura. I sincerely hope to work with her again one day!”

When I was a little girl, my favorite part about making the trip to Argentina to visit my grandparents, was rummaging through their old boxes of prints on a rainy day and just imagining life through those photos. I think that's what started my passion for photography. Knowing that a photo can have such an impact on a child, someone who hasn't even met you yet, makes taking them all the more meaningful. I am passionate about making meaningful images for others because I know how important those photos will be in the future.

“We had the absolute pleasure of working with Carolina for our wedding, and we couldn’t be happier with our decision! From the very beginning, she made us feel comfortable and at ease, which was such a relief for two people who aren’t always the most comfortable in front of the camera. Her pre-wedding connection shoot was a fantastic way for us to get to know her better and for her to understand our personalities and what we were looking for. It was a great way to break the ice and helped us feel much more relaxed on the big day. Throughout the entire process, Carolina was not only professional but also genuinely kind and attentive. She truly went above and beyond, even giving us a few sneak peek shots early, which was such a thoughtful touch and helped us relive some of the best moments right away. We couldn't have asked for a better photographer. She captured our day in such a beautiful, authentic way, and we are so grateful for all her hard work. If you're looking for someone who is not just talented but also warm and genuinely cares about making you feel comfortable and happy, we highly recommend Carolina!!”

“Choosing our wedding photographer was one of our most important vendor decisions. We wanted a photographer who was versatile enough to capture emotional moments and convey our wedding day through a story. We spent hours researching photographers, but when exploring a wedding expo, we had the opportunity to meet Daniel as he was advertising DTJ Photography. Even though it was a hectic day meeting tons of other photographers, we walked away from the expo impressed with Daniel's knowledge and artistic perspective. We were very specific with wanting a photographer to capture photographs in a moody candlelit ambiance, and after seeing Daniel's gallery we were positive he could capture our vision. After booking with DTJ, we were so impressed with his thoughtfulness and communication. Our engagement shoot session was the best way to not only get the perfect photos to share with our loved ones but to also work with Daniel and get any wedding day jitters out of the way. Our engagement photography session was invaluable as he taught us how to pose and helped us gained confidence in front of the camera. On the wedding day, Daniel and his team (Nelson and John) were a calm and commanding presence which made getting through our lengthy photo list effortless, even when we had our large extended family portraits. The entire day went without a hitch as Daniel, Nelson, and John brought an extremely positive energy that kept our spirits high throughout our wedding day. We felt that they were able to holistically, purely, and dynamically capture our wedding day. All of our photos are absolutely breathtaking: the details, our first look, formal portraits, bridal party features, and fun dance floor shots are all so meticulously captured. So many of our friends and family said we look like models or should be on the cover Vogue. We cannot express how ecstatic we are with the photos we will have for the rest of our lives. If you're looking for an authentic and charismatic person who is a versatile photographer that can capture unique moments and convey your wedding day through a story like we were, Daniel is the man!”

My partner and I were looking for a photographer who would make us feel comfortable and confident on our special day, and Lou exceeded our expectations in every way!!!

Over the past decade, my journey in the medical field as a Radiologic Technologist and CT Technologist has been transformative. Working in trauma has sharpened my ability to think quickly under pressure and has grounded me in the profound truth of how fleeting and precious our moments are. Each day spent in medical imaging, helping diagnose patients during their most vulnerable times, has ignited a passion within me—a desire to capture and celebrate the beauty of life’s happiest moments. This inspiration has led me to create my own photography business, where I strive to encapsulate the love, and fleeting instances that make life meaningful.

“Alexis is absolutely amazing photographer! My fiancé and I were nervous at first when looking for a photographer due to not knowing how we were going to pose and what the end results should look like. Alexis made the whole engagement shoot so easy and stress free. We connected and talked about inspiration and the game plan for the photo day. She found us the perfect venue to shoot our Tuscan engagement photos. The day couldn’t have gone anymore perfect she made sure we got every photo we could possibly ask for. She even gave us a sneak peak within 3 days of taking the photos. I would absolutely recommend her to all of my friends and family for any future photo opportunities. Her professionalism and friendliness makes her stand out from the rest!”

WHO WE ARE... Authentic? Artistic? Creative? Timeless? Nope! These are among the most overused marketing words in the wedding-photography industry. They aren't meant to capture your life. They are meant to capture sales. How do we describe our work? The same way you would describe your relationship: wild, unpredictable, playful, and - above all else - fun! Your biggest day shouldn't follow a tired script. Let us share in your vision and help you tell your story!

“Nick & Kelly...we freakin love you guys! Not only have our sneak peak pictures been AMAZING, Nick & Kelly's energy kept us laughing all night long. My husband and I hate posed pictures, but with Nick & Kelly, it never felt awkward or like work. There are absolutely no other photographers we would've liked to spend our entire wedding day with. And they absolutely NAILED all the shots we wanted, and then some. We can't wait to see the rest of our pictures! Hire them immediately!”
