WE LOVE MJC IMAGE !!!! Mary is the absolute best !!! With any questions we had Mary responded instantly, she was fabulous with communication. If I overloaded her with questions, as every bride does, she would squeeze me in quickly with a zoom or ft call. She is super busy so her quality of response time was so appreciated. The second I saw Mary’s work, I knew I had to have her photograph my wedding. My husband and I had never done a photo shoot before our wedding, so we did an engagement shoot to get a little practice in before the wedding. Mary made us feel so at ease, we thought it would be awkward, Nope! Mary instantly felt like a friend we knew forever. Not to mention her pictures from both engagement shoot and wedding day are my favorite pictures ever taken. If you’re looking for a photographer Mary is your best option !

This is delightfully different elopement + wedding photography! From helicopter elopements and lakeside wedding bashes to hiking engagements to weddings with bouncy houses, I capture the adventurous, quirky, and unique.

My creative, fun, & candid photography uses innovative techniques and unique ideas to get photos that make you look twice. Whether you're saying vows in your backyard or having a 3-day adventure wedding in the rainforest, I'll catch every spontaneous moment of joy and laughter—and plan a few unique shots on top of it all.

We were so lucky to have found Kathryn for our wedding. As a photographer, Kathryn is an artist. She has incredible talent, creative ideas, and delivers stunning results. As a person, Kathryn is simply a joy. She is warm, easygoing, and fun. She made the process so easy from start to finish and we actually miss getting to chat with her! We are a same-sex, interfaith couple, and came to the table with family drama, a crazy dog, and a mashing of cultures. Kathryn didn't bat an eyelash. She has a true inclusive spirit, and that continues to mean a lot to us. If you want to be able to relive your special day with profound joy for years to come, just choose Kathryn! We so hope for our paths to cross again someday and we look forward to recommending Kathryn to anyone who will listen. We wish her nothing but the success that she deserves.

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
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 !

We LOVED Eddie! From our engagement shoot in Dumbo where he got to know us and helped to loosen up, to capturing every special moment of our wedding day, we couldn’t have chosen a better photographer. We got along super well with him and the second photographer he brought along. The pictures they captured were stunning! Eddie really has an eye for lighting and it came through in our special shots. We would highly recommend choosing Eddie — he does amazing work and becomes a part of your love story. We loved him so much we recommended him to a friend and now are excited to have him capture their wedding day.

We’re Hudson Valley and Catskills wedding photographers who specialize in intimate celebrations filled with connection and emotion. Our focus is on real moments, beautiful light, and photos that feel like you. Whether you’re planning a cozy backyard wedding or an adventurous elopement in the mountains, we’ll capture it with care and creativity.

Our experience was far beyond what we’d hoped for! We had so much fun at the engagement shoot; it felt like spending time catching up with friends, but then we somehow also ended with incredible photos of us as a couple that we’ll always cherish. This translated to the wedding day but also extended to so much more — as a couple we aren’t particular about a lot of things and prefer to go with the flow and enjoy the moment. Megan and Kenneth both provided a sense of structure for us without anything ever feeling forced, using both wedding expertise and also careful consideration of us as individuals. From the way Megan rapidly buttoned up my dress, to the beautiful shots taken of our treasured guests, to the bits of advice and kind encouragement before the ceremony and in our first moments as a married couple - our day truly wouldn’t have been the same without you both. We felt so lucky to have two people helping us to be present and focus on one another throughout the craziness of the day - and to have Kenneth make sure that my dress stayed clean and unwrinkled! I wish we had better words to capture how great our experience was! We also had very clear and consistent communication via email and video calls throughout the process! As someone who was planning quite a bit in advance, they were the one vendor I never felt nervous about because of large periods of time lapsing without hearing from them.

Hi, I’m Richard, a wedding photographer based in the Hudson Valley. My passion is finding the beauty in the simplest moments and capturing them in a way that feels raw, real, and full of life. As a candid, photojournalist photographer, I’m all about ditching stiff poses to focus on the relationships, the laughs, and the genuine emotions that tell your distinct story.

Richard is simply the best! From our very first initial wedding call through the big day, he was absolutely fantastic. He arrived while we were getting ready and instantly made us feel comfortable. Richard struck the perfect balance of professional and fun—he blended right in with our quirky, crazy crew and truly felt like part of the day. I honestly couldn’t recommend him enough. All of my family and friends adored him too—he’s an absolute 10/10 rockstar. To top it off, he delivered a full batch of preview photos just two days later, and they are absolutely stunning. He had such a gift for capturing the true essence of who we are. Words can’t express how grateful I am that he was our photographer. Don’t hesitate—just book him. You won’t regret it!

I'm Matthew, a wedding photographer based in Garrison, NY. With a decade as a wedding photographer and 15 years as an educator, I bring two things to every wedding: the ability to document moments as they happen, and the calm to handle whatever the day brings. I prepare carefully, communicate beforehand, and stay present when it's busy. My style is mostly documentary. I blend into the wedding, observing and documenting moments as they happen rather than staging them. Feedback I hear most often is that couples weren't aware of me, but that I got everything. I work with all couples and celebrate every kind of love, and every kind of marriage.

Awarded Best of Zola
Matthew was phenomenal. From our first meeting through the end of our wedding, Matthew was calm, friendly, organized, and professional, and he worked well with everyone from our grandparents to our 3-year-old ringbearer . We felt at ease with him in control of our wedding photos and could not be happier with the results--absolutely beautiful photos that tell the complete story of our wedding. Highly recommend!

Hi I'm Olivia! I am a 22 year old portrait & wedding photographer based in the Hudson Valley, NY. Photography for me is a lifestyle & brings out my creative side. I shot my first wedding in 2022 & immediately fell in love with photographing weddings! I started photography when I was 13 after being inspired by local photographers. I love connecting with everyone I meet on this journey. I am so grateful for all my previous & future clients. You all make this possible. If you're new here, I'd love to get to know you & create long lasting memories

We truly cannot recommend Olivia enough! From our engagement shoot to our wedding day, she was absolutely incredible. Going into our engagement session, I was so nervous that I would feel awkward and not know how to pose, but Olivia made us feel comfortable almost immediately. She guided us through everything, gave us direction, and came up with so many fun and creative shots. Some of the photos genuinely looked like scenes straight out of a movie! We loved our engagement photos so much that choosing Olivia for our wedding day was an easy decision. She was so kind, flexible, and understanding when we realized we needed to add on more coverage, and she made the entire process so easy. On our wedding day, Olivia was more than just our photographer. She made us feel like we had known her for years, and she brought such a fun, calming energy to the entire day. What stood out the most was how genuinely invested she seemed in capturing every special and meaningful moment. From getting ready in the morning all the way through the reception at night, she was constantly looking for those little moments that we otherwise might have missed. You can truly tell that Olivia loves what she does. She wasn’t just there to take pictures — she was genuinely enjoying herself, celebrating with us, and making sure we had the most beautiful memories to look back on. Our photos are absolutely incredible, and we will cherish them for the rest of our lives. We are SO grateful we found Olivia and would recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer who is talented, creative, kind, and truly cares about her couples!

You know that all encompassing feeling when you’re revisiting a vivid memory? You can smell the fresh air, feel the way the sun hits your face just so, hear the voice of the loved one next to you, remember the joke that they delivered and instantly you’re laughing all over again. That magic is what I hope to capture as your photographer. It’s my job to hold those moments in time so that they don’t have to fade. You’ll forever be able to revisit the moment, see the exact way they smiled, revisit that incredible sunset, relive the memory and turn back time.

Where do I even begin with Jessica? From our initial meeting straight through our wedding day Jessica has been amazing. The work that she does can speak for itself. Jessica captures photos that are posed and candid with a simple ease. We have gone through our wedding photos and anyone that looks at them can feel the love that we have for one another. Jessica makes you feel comfortable when you are working with her. I hate being in front of the camera but with Jessica capturing our special moments all one can be is comfortable. On your wedding day when Jessica says if anyone messes with you not to worry for she will fight the fight. If something goes wrong she finds a way to make it right. If you are a selfless person she will tell you that you have every right to be selfish. Jessica made our wedding journey relaxed when it came to the photography. She also knows how to pick just the right second shooter for your event. Thank you for picking Emily for ours. I tell all the couples that I work with at my job to book the vendors that you click with; be comfortable with them. It makes a big difference. Mike and I can truly say that Jessica is a wedding super hero and along this journey we are proud to call her FRIEND!!!

At Portraits by Lisa Marie, photography is about preserving the moments that make your love story uniquely yours. Based in the Hudson Valley, I specialize in documentary-style wedding photography with timeless, true-to-color imagery. My goal is to capture your day naturally as it unfolds, the laughter, happy tears, and quiet in-between moments that often mean the most. I focus on creating a relaxed experience so couples feel comfortable and present while I document their story with care, creativity, and heart. Your wedding photographs should feel authentic, emotional, and timeless memories you will cherish for generations!

Awarded Best of Zola
Lisa was hands down one of my top vendors for my September 2024 wedding. Ultimately when booking vendors we had two non- negotiables- affordability and character. I met with several photographers before her and either their pricing was not within our range or I didn’t feel any “connection” with them. When I met Lisa over FaceTime I was in Target with my two toddlers because I had my schedule mixed up. She laughed about it and we were able to have a productive meeting despite the mix up. I hired Lisa not long after and I am so glad I did. Besides from being a phenomenal photographer, her personality is what put the cherry on top. She is detail oriented and assertive - like myself- and had a very efficient way of photographing our bridal party where we were even able to enjoy our cocktail hour without having a first look. She was excellent and extremely patient with our two kids. Our family loved her as did we! We were even able to get her out on the dance floor for a bit! We wish we didn’t live so far away otherwise we would be using her as our photographer a whole lot. Thank you Lisa for being such an important part of our day and for having such an incredible heart.

My approach is rooted in a documentary style that focuses on capturing genuine, unscripted moments as they naturally unfold. Whether it's the quiet emotion of an intimate vow exchange or the energy of a packed dance floor, I’m there to observe and preserve it all with honesty and intention. From small elopements to full-scale celebrations, I pay close attention to both the subtle details and the powerful, unforgettable scenes—because every wedding has its own unique story, and my goal is to tell it truthfully through my lens

From start to finish, Aleksandra was absolutely incredible. Not only was she professional, organized, and communicative every step of the way, but she also made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera. She captured every special moment of our day. What stood out most was how genuinely invested she was in us as a couple and in making sure our families felt included and cared for. She was respectful and thoughtful of our cultures and took the time to understand what was important to us, and handled everything with warmth, grace, and professionalism. We never had to worry about a thing because she was always one step ahead and incredibly organized. If you're looking for someone who feels less of a vendor and more like a trusted friend who just happens to take amazing photos, look no further. We are so grateful that Aleksandra was able to capture our day!! She's the best.

Hi, I'm Stef. I photograph intimate weddings, NYC City Hall ceremonies, and micro celebrations where presence matters more than production. My approach is documentary at its core. I'm not directing every moment, I'm moving through your day quietly, watching for the ones that actually matter. I shoot both digital and 35mm film, not as an aesthetic choice but because film asks everyone to slow down a little. That slowness is kind of the whole point. Based in New York City and the Hudson Valley, available for travel.

I had the pleasure of working with Stef when I created a bouquet for one of her elopement shoots. The experience was wonderful from start to finish. She was incredibly easy to communicate with throughout the process - always responsive and clear about her vision and needs. The final photos were absolutely beautiful and she captured the romance and intimacy of the shoot perfectly. As a vendor, I really appreciated how collaborative and pleasant she was to work with. I would definitely recommend her to any couple looking for an elopement photographer who combines artistic talent with a genuinely caring, professional approach.

Mike is truly an exceptional wedding photographer. From the very start of the process, he took the time to connect with us and understand our vision for the day. His warmth, professionalism, and genuine passion for his craft made him a joy to work with. On the day itself, Mike felt like part of the celebration—capturing every emotion, detail, and special moment with effortless artistry. His ability to make everyone feel comfortable and at ease is just one of his many talents. Looking back at the photos is like stepping into those cherished moments again, and we’re beyond grateful for the memories he's given us.

A good friend of mine has said that my brand is to care. She isn’t wrong-my brand is one of caring because my being is one of caring. I’ve been a wedding photog for 14+ yrs. I find that being a wedding photog is a gift - I barely have the words to describe how special it feels to be invited into clients’ most momentous & intimate wedding moments over & over again. I’m a champion for the weird & whimsical, the fun & funky - even & especially on wedding days. Plan your day the way you want to, trends be damned. Let your wedding day reflect your joy. That’s what we’re all there to celebrate, anyway. ✨

We cannot recommend Sweet Alice Photography enough!!!! If you are getting married in the Hudson Valley area, you won’t find a more professional, personable or talented photographer than Erica! When we decided to spend our lives together, we knew we wanted a wedding that was an authentic presentation of who we were; a celebration of two families coming together that was filled with color and nature. We called upon family and close friends to help us with their talents for many elements of our wedding, but knew we needed a professional behind the lens to capture our big day. Erica at Sweet Alice Photography seemed like the perfect fit for us. Her honest and candid photos tell a story that feels real without excessive filtering. We felt so comfortable working with Erica. She was cheerful, communicative and accommodating through every step of the process. Regular email updates and words of encouragement arrived in our inboxes unprompted, and even when we had to make a last minute venue change she was so incredibly supportive. She really felt like part of the family! We loved the preview shots she sent us within days of the ceremony and couldn’t wait to share them with all our guests. We were surprised to receive all our images so quickly and in an adorable gift box with the coolest flash drive!!!

Julia is a wizard. She is a fairy. She is a magical being that was sent from another realm to make us feel like the most special people on our special day. Wedding planning can be stressful, but spending time with Julia means putting all those stresses behind and falling in love with your partner again. She manages to get the most intimate shots while making sure we’re completely comfortable and happy. We thought a good while over who we were going to pick for our photographer and with unbelievable luck we chose the best photographer in the Hudson Valley. Completely outstanding, 10/10, we will be hiring her for all life events. From our first conversation with her, prior to the engagement shoot and prior to real wedding planning, it was clear that she was the right choice as she made us feel secure and made it clear that she had a vision that aligned with ours. Julia made our wedding dream come true and immortalized in her photos, there is absolutely no one we would recommend over her. You would be doing yourself a disservice by not hiring her for your wedding.

I’m known for documenting candid moments in a bright and vibrant way. I love capturing and creating narratives from start to finish - being a wedding photographer and videographer is the ultimate storytelling experience, and it’s one of my greatest joys. Weddings feel like home to me. I’ve found that it’s hard for me to stop smiling throughout the day, and even afterward, during the editing process. There’s just something about weddings that gets my heart all aflutter.

From our first inquiry, Ashley was quick to respond, incredibly informative, and thoroughly addressed all of our questions. Her communication style put us at ease and made the planning process seamless. On the day of our wedding, Ashley and her husband, Seraphim felt like friends, helping us relax and feel comfortable in front of the camera. The final photos were nothing short of stunning - beautifully detailed and capturing all the special moments in a way that truly reflected the joy of our day. Ashley provided incredible value and we are thrilled with the beautiful memories they were able to preserve for us.

If I have a camera in my hands, then I am most definitely smiling. Photography has been my passion since I was a teenager and I love bringing that passion to weddings. I strive to capture all the intimate details that make a wedding truly personal. Don't be surprised if you see me crying during the parent dances, it's one of my favorite moments :)

Angie was the first vendor we secured after booking our venue, and she set the bar incredibly high for everyone else. Professional, personable, and deeply engaged, Angie takes the time to truly understand your vision and needs for the big day. When the time comes, she ensures everything runs smoothly, expertly guiding you, your family, and your friends through the wedding photo process. Angie and her team captured both planned moments and spontaneous memories, all while collaborating seamlessly with our other vendors. From our very first meeting—her idea, and the only in-person sit-down we had with any vendor!—to the engagement photoshoot she organized for us in Central Park, and finally to the hundreds of stunning photos she captured at our wedding in Throgs Neck's Marina del Rey, Angie was incredibly thorough and meticulous. What impressed us even more was her efficiency and thoughtfulness. Within a month of our wedding, she delivered an impeccably organized gallery of photos, complete with a sneak peek that arrived the very next day to satisfy our excitement. Angie also provides excellent value, handling both an engagement photoshoot and our wedding at a fair price point with a level of service, professionalism, and care that is truly unmatched. If you're looking for a photographer who will guide you through the process with expertise and a collaborative spirit, we recommend Angie. She was an invaluable part of making our wedding unforgettable.

Chris and Chrissy were incredible! My wife and I are so thankful they were not only able to capture our wedding, but make taking photos an enjoyable and smooth experience. We cannot recommend them enough! Every picture is more beautiful than the last, and they thought of everything! Every combo, every angle, every time of day. They made us feel comfortable in front of the camera, and took pictures that will last a lifetime. We cannot thank them enough for everything. While we already knew they were the right choice for us when we first chatted, on the big day, they confirmed that they were the slam dunk, best choice to be our photographers.

I hold a special place in my heart for intimate weddings, destination weddings, elopements, and anything in nature. I believe in the happy coexistence between posed and candid photography, and live for them both. I thrive off of positive energy and always promise to bring my own. For each couple I work with, I create a detailed and extensive timeline, posed list, and photo itinerary to ensure a smooth, relaxing, organized, and absolutely magical day. I’ve got a case of wanderlust and adore nature. Let’s explore.

My husband and I could not be happier with our choice to have Caitlinn as our wedding photographer. She is unbelievably talented and has an incredible ability to capture the emotions of each moment. Caitlinn pays close attention to the small details, from the way we held hands to the expressions on our guests' faces, bringing every precious memory to life in her photos. I first met Caitlinn when she was the photographer for my best friend's wedding, which happened to be on one of the coldest days of the year. I’ll never forget Caitlinn’s energy and enthusiasm—despite the chill, she was a warm and positive presence, making everyone feel comfortable and excited. After that, I knew she would be the perfect choice for our wedding as well. We booked Caitlinn for our engagement photos, and it was one of the best decisions we made. Our friends and family couldn’t stop raving about how stunning the photos were! She even joined us on a cold winter hike, creating such a relaxed and fun atmosphere that I told my husband afterward, “I want to be friends with her.” That’s how wonderful she is! On our wedding day, Caitlinn made me feel absolutely incredible. She was professional, timely, and brought a sense of calm and joy that made the day even more special. Caitlinn is so efficient that we received our sneak peek photos the very next day, and they were breathtaking! Despite shooting two weddings after ours, she had all our photos to us within three weeks—unbelievable! I cannot recommend Caitlinn highly enough. Not only is she incredibly talented and attentive to every detail, but she is also the kind of person you want to have around on your special day. Her warmth and positivity light up the room, and we are beyond grateful to have had her as our photographer.
