If you want to relive your wedding day over and over again, BOOK CASSANDRA DAYE ! From the moment we booked with Cass, she became so much more than just our wedding photographer. She became a friend. She was a steady, calming, supportive presence throughout the entire planning process, someone we could lean on, reach out to, and even vent to when things felt overwhelming. Her energy was exactly what every couple needs during the chaos of wedding planning; grounding, reassuring, and genuinely caring. We had the best time during our engagement shoot with Cass. We had no idea what we were doing but she made it so easy and most importantly- FUN. The photos left us absolutely speechless. We always knew Cass was the right choice, but we could never have imagined just how beautifully, and how magically she would bring our memories to life! On the day of the wedding, I was so overwhelmed and she continued to bring me back down to earth with her calm presence and unwavering kindness and support. She and her team were iconic on the day and everyone had so much fun with them. When we received our wedding gallery, we were absolutely blown away. Every image felt ethereal—soft, emotional, timeless—and yet so true to who we are. Cass has this rare ability to capture raw emotion in a way that feels both effortless and deeply intentional. Cass didn’t just photograph our wedding, she preserved the heart of it. Looking through our pictures brought us right back to the day—the laughter, the nerves, the tears, the joy. She bottled up the feelings of our wedding in the most beautiful way, and we’re forever grateful. Cass isn’t just an incredibly talented photographer, she’s the kind of person you’re BLESSED to have beside you on your wedding day. We couldn’t recommend her more and absolutely love her.

Kozmo Photography

  • Serves Waterford, NY

Hello ! first and foremost, congratulations on your engagement as you embark on this new chapter of your lives. My name is Kevin and I started the ground work Kozmo Photography back in 2014. My goal has always been to capture the uniqueness of each and every couple on the biggest day of their journey together. It is therefore my belief that a great wedding photographer must be able to capture the big and small details throughout the day with minimal interference while being keenly aware of the surrounding conditions. This is my promise as I strive to deliver to each and every couple the wedding photos they deserve.

I would recommend Kozmo Photography to anyone getting married. We had a courthouse wedding, and Kevin still went out of his way to capture the most special moments. He was professional, yet was still able to keep the mood light and fun. He knew the perfect locations to capture the most beautiful photos. He was extremely patient and willing to incorporate our idea with his. He was very responsive/communicative throughout the entire process. He even had the sneak peeks available the very next day. 10/10 would recommend.

I am a wedding photographer who splits time between my hometown of Fargo, ND and Albany, NY. I'm all about adventure and meeting new people, and my work has taken me to just about every state in the U.S. and put countless special humans and connections in front of my camera. I strives to portray love stories with authenticity and meaning and I happily tailor my approach to my clients’ tastes and preferences. My mission is to ensure that you enjoy the day, while I take care of catching those quiet moments in an unobtrusive way.

Oh my goodness, Kay was so much fun to work with! I was the day-of coordinator for a recent wedding that she shot, and we truly had a blast. Not only was her creativity and dedication to the couple's vision unmatched, but her time management skills were 10/10. When our timeline fell behind and we were getting super close to ceremony start time, she managed to catch us up perfectly and somehow captured significantly MORE pictures than we had planned. She was a perfect match for our client and I can't wait to see all of the beautiful photos that she captured. Hire her now, you won't regret it!

Awarded Best of Zola
Our family has known Rob Spring for almost 15 years, all the way back to when he volunteered to photograph the Saratoga Spring High School Drama Club. He blew us away, so we then hired him to do my senior photos! We knew he was an exceptional photographer then - but seeing his company grow over the years has proven that he is truly a step above every other photographer in the area! Hiring him and his team for our wedding was a no brainer and we are so glad we did. Rob is not only an excellent, technically proficient photographer - he is truly an artist! His team is top notch - organized, kind, funny and helpful. Our concerns about uncertain weather and large unruly family photos quickly dissipated - Rob and his team are true professionals who know Saratoga venues like the back of their hand. They made everyone so comfortable and kept us smiling and laughing the entire day. Once the dust had settled, seeing the sneak peek photos a couple days later completely blew our mind! Our photos are more than we could've ever hoped for and truly captured the joy, love and beauty of that day. We've had friends from around the country inquire about Rob after seeing those photos - they are on a completely different level in terms of quality. If this review doesn't make it clear enough - hire Rob and his team. You will have absolutely no regrets.

Capturing love in every color of the rainbow, Kristen Renee Photography tells authentic wedding stories through a relaxed, documentary style. Based in Albany, New York and traveling wherever love leads, Kristen and her team focus on genuine moments rather than stiff poses. From intimate elopements to vibrant celebrations, every wedding is approached with curiosity, empathy, and a deep respect for each couple’s unique story. The goal is simple: photographs that feel real, timeless, and unmistakably you.

We worked with Kristen & Sheridan for our wedding earlier this year and are so lucky to have found them! TL;DR: From planning and day-of execution to the delivery of our wedding gallery, Kristen & Sheridan were incredible to work with. Not only were they the perfect presence for our wedding day, they captured it in such an authentic way with a stunning final product. We connected with Kristen & Sheridan the moment we met them which was important to us considering the amount of time you spend around your photographers. We did an engagement shoot prior and we not only received an incredible batch of photos, but we were able to establish a rapport that made the flow of our wedding day feel that much easier. When we had to tweak our photo schedule or change locations, they were the perfect people to help us pivot and keep things on track. And when it was time for the ceremony & reception, their discrete coverage led to incredible results that captured our day in such an incredible way. The wedding gallery they created was nothing short of amazing and we were able to see moments of friends & family we would have never seen day-of. And truly, everyone who interacted with them LOVED them. We had opted not to have a videographer and knew our photographs were going to be our primary memory of the day, and we have no notes! Kristen & Sheridan captured the perfect story of our wedding and we would recommend them to anyone!

Established in 2011, CLH images Photography creates classic, authentic, and true to color photos that stand the test of time. My personal motto is "more is more!" More angles, more photos, more personalized attention to each gallery. Simply put: the more I put in, the more you get out!

From the moment we inquired with CLH Images Photography for our wedding, Carrie's communication was timely, professional, and engaged. The quality of her work is exceptional - both the attention to detail and organization she brought to the planning and execution of the day and of course the photos themselves. 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. We are over the moon with the final photos Carrie produced and could not have asked for a better person to document our wedding day.

We can not recommend Lindsey with Heart Speak Visuals enough!

We were beyond lucky to have three separate shoots with Lindsey for our engagement, courthouse elopement, and wedding day with each one being more stunning than the last. She listened to exactly the style of photos we wanted and organized the shot lists with our family and friends on our wedding day with ease. She is excellently priced for the stunning galleries you receive, she is prompt, always available when we needed to check in and as a plus, the site she uses for her galleries is so user friendly and we have all of our professional photos in one place. We could go on and on about how special these photos are to us. Lindsey does not disappoint and we look forward to hopefully having other photo opportunities with her in the future!

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
From the moment we first spoke with Bridget, we knew we had found the perfect wedding photographer. Her photography style, her attention to detail, and her bubbly, yet calm, demeanor all contributed to the fantastic work she did for our wedding. Her communication was always organized and succinct, putting our minds at ease throughout the planning process. Most importantly, the quality of her work was truly amazing - Her classic, beautiful photography captured all the special moments of our day, going above and beyond our expectations. Not only was her photography the best that we've seen, it was also SO timely - We had sneak peeks within a few days of our wedding. Bridget was an absolute joy to work with, serving not just as our photographer, but as a wedding guide and hype woman, too! She kept our entire timeline running smoothly and made Brooke (the bride) feel so beautiful and special. Bridget has become more than just a vendor/photographer to us - she's a friend, and we plan to use her services for all of our big life events in the future. Choosing her as your photographer will be the best decision you make for your wedding day!

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
Becca was wonderful to work with, her talent really showed on our wedding day. I especially loved her ability to take photos in the moment. I never felt like I was dedicating too much time to photos during the wedding and I had a great time working with her. Becca is truly also such a kind individual, we had a DIY outside wedding and she always checked in with us asking if we needed any help or needed to take a break. That’s something above and beyond what any photographer needs to do. In addition, our photos came back super fast and were absolutely stunning. There was a ton of photos to look at days after the wedding which was great to be able to share with my family and friends. I would 100% recommend Becca to anyone looking for an engagement photo or wedding photographer she really captured more than I ever dreamed of with our photos and I really enjoyed working with her.

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.

JB Photography was the absolute best to work with! From the very first zoom call, Jenna’s energy, experience and passion were so clear. She is creative, thoughtful and detail-oriented - from making us feel at ease during our engagement photoshoot (the first time we ever did a “formal” shoot as a couple), through expertly navigating the wedding day timeline ensuring that every moment was captured, Jenna made sure that every detail was covered. When we received all of our photos we were blown away by how she and her team captured everything, from the smallest detail to the full group shots, in such beautiful and creative ways. Now the hard part - choosing our favorites (which we know Jenna will beautifully layout in an album which we’ll cherish 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.

I’m SO glad that we hired Jaci to be our photographer for our wedding. I felt that she was 100% aligned with what I wanted for the photography: minimal posing/forced moments and lots of candids of all the love and fun times. We’ve only received our preview photos so far (we just got married a couple weeks ago) but I can already tell she killed it. I’m already so happy with what we have and have been looking at them nonstop! On the day Jaci was a delight to work with and so much fun. Her and her assistant were so friendly and nice, really putting me at ease while I was freaking out. I am NOT comfortable in front of a camera but somehow in the pictures I look totally natural. They were also very much on the dance floor during the reception getting in the mix and getting those incredible pictures of people partying and celebrating that we hoped for. I remember a couple times spotting them out of the corner of my eye and just thinking “I know these are gonna be good” and they very much are! At brunch the morning after many people were remarking about how much fun the photographers were. Just good vibes and great photos all around, I would definitely recommend working with Jaci!

Paul Saunders Wedding Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (5 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,650
  • Serves Waterford, NY

My smashing team photographs weddings have different coverage options that will hopefully not break the bank. Our people go throughout upstate New York, Massachusetts, and Vermont. Couples receive all edited pictures on flash drives to print and share with no restrictions; plus, online viewing is always included with any coverage for at least five years. Paul Saunders Photography is the most-reviewed photography company in New York, Massachusetts, Vermont, and all of New England.

We hired Paul Saunders Wedding Photography early on and didn't worry about communicating until closer to the wedding, but Paul stayed organized and kept us in the loop every step of the way. He sent us Chris, a photographer we immediately clicked with, who had such a relaxed energy that we barely noticed he was there while he captured incredible candids. My husband and I are both introverts and get awkward in front of cameras, but Chris kept us laughing and made the whole day feel fun instead of stressful. He even remembered our guests' names and reminded us to actually eat at our reception, plus he made our first touch and vow exchange way less uncomfortable than we expected. Chris had a gift for putting us at ease while still getting stunning shots. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and would absolutely recommend Paul Saunders to any couple looking for a photographer who truly cares.

Maisie Snyder Photography

My name is Maisie and I am SO. DARN. EXCITED you are here! Celebrating and capturing you cool cats and kittens is one of my FAVORITE things to do and I am so stoked to share in your story. It’s not about the photos. It’s about you. It’s being playful and emotional; it’s being authentic; it’s creating something that is effortlessly you. I am known for my genuine, immersive, classic images and my easy-going, joyful nature from booking to gallery completion.

Our photographer, Maisie Snyder Photography, was absolutely incredible. Her photos speak for themselves, you can see how talented she is from her website and social media, but what you can’t fully capture from that is just how wonderful she is as a person and how easy she makes the entire experience. She was so organized and helpful leading up to the wedding, making sure we felt prepared and ready for the whole weekend. And as a family with kids, this was especially important, she was amazing with my stepdaughters. Photographing kids isn’t always easy, but she connected with them so naturally and made everything feel fun and comfortable. Honestly, I don’t even know how she got some of the photos she did as I barely noticed her half the time, but somehow she didn’t miss a single moment. She captured everything so beautifully and authentically. These are photos our family will cherish for the rest of our lives. As someone who loves photos, this was one of the most important decisions for me and I can confidently say we made the perfect choice with Maisie. I would 100000% recommend her.
