When I came across Rebecca's website and portfolio I was immediately smitten. Her style was so beautiful and unique, and exactly what I was hoping to find for our wedding. One quick call with her and I knew she was our photographer. She was so warm and welcoming and we felt completely ourselves around her. We had FUN spending time with her for both our engagement and wedding photos. Aside from her amazing skills - she went ABOVE AND BEYOND to coordinate our engagement photos with us when we were living in California. She was the easiest choice we made and we love every photo she took for us. Cannot recommend her highly enough! - Chelsean Nick

When I showed my mom the photos, she cried happy tears instantly. She kept saying how it brought her back to the day. That’s exactly how I felt too. They captured not just how everything looked but how it felt. The photos of me walking down the aisle with my dad are priceless. The video was even better than I imagined, especially with how they included little candid moments. My husband loved the fun dancing clips at the reception. The editing is seamless, you can tell they put so much care into it. They were also so nice the whole day, calming my nerves whenever I stressed. Even my bridesmaids commented on how great they were to work with. I truly couldn’t ask for more. These memories are priceless.

I am passionate about love, all types, all stories. It is my purpose to capture intimate moments of human existence through the lens of my camera. I am honored to get to live these special moments with all of my clients. Since starting wedding photography full-time 7 years ago, I’ve worked with countless couples to capture their proposals, engagements, weddings and elopements. My goal with every session or event is to leave with casually constructed as well as charming candid photos of my clients and to form a lifelong friendship along the way. Let’s talk!

Reese is one of those rare humans that radiates sunshine - both in her soul, and in her work. Reese photographed our Engagement Shoot and our Elopement/Micro-Wedding, and she was an absolute gem to work with. She made us feel so incredibly comfortable as two people who are usually camera-shy, and we truly had so much fun! Her energy, passion, and spirit shined through every moment and every photograph - and I am so grateful that she was able to capture these magic moments for us.

With a keen eye for detail and a passion for capturing special moments, I strive to deliver high-quality images that exceed my clients' expectations. From candid shots to posed portraits, I work closely with each client to understand their vision and deliver photographs that truly reflect their unique style and personality. With years of experience and a commitment to excellence, my photography business is dedicated to providing exceptional service and stunning images that will be cherished for years to come.

We absolutely loved working with Lana and cannot recommend her enough. From our engagement session through our wedding day, she was efficient, professional, and such a calming, confident presence. She coached us in a way that felt natural and comfortable, and she has an incredible eye for lighting. Our sunset photos in particular are stunning. Lana navigated the mixed weather on our wedding day effortlessly, from gray skies to bright sun to the bright sunset behind us. She made all of our family and friends feel at ease, and she was quick, intentional, and respectful of everyone’s time so no one ever felt stuck in photos for too long. Most importantly, our photos look like us. We wanted images true to who we are and true to the day we had, not overly filtered or edited, and Lana delivered exactly that. Every photo is beautiful, heartfelt, and authentic. We also ordered our album through her, and it is truly gorgeous: thick, sturdy lay-flat pages and such high quality that it already feels like a family heirloom. We would recommend Lana a thousand times over. We are so grateful for how she captured every moment and emotion from our wedding day.

I am a lifestyle photographer and i specialize in weddings. I love color, natural light, and love. I am drawn toward clients that like to let go and have fun! I love outside weddings and the more details the better. Your wedding day is so special and magical, the images from that day should be fine art and as unique as you are

Ina is a pleasure to work with. She is very calm, easy going and laid back during the day which puts everyone at ease on sometimes what can be a stressful day. She is creative with her shots and is able to find the best pose and angle for the couple which makes it easier for a videographer to shoot.

I created Capture by Alex to offer journalistic, natural, and stress-free wedding photography here on Long Island. My photography style avoids bossy posing, stuffy wedding day portrait sessions, and interruptions during your first dance. I approach each wedding as if it's my last chance to capture the moment because, in a way, it is. By the end of the night, your dress may no longer be pristine, and your partner may no longer be wearing their tie (or shirt). But you'll have photos that allow you to relive the day again and again. Contact me at capture by alex DOT com

Where to begin- Alex is an amazing, kind and talented human who is an incredible professional and so fun to work with. Our day was perfectly captured and I’ve received so many amazing reviews on both the pictures and his overall demeanor and professionalism throughout the day. Alex truly is the best of the best and I am so happy we booked him!!

I am a queer, New York City-based photographer documenting candid joy and human connection. Drawn to emotion and the beauty in everyday moments, I approach my work with mindfulness and intuition – balancing gentle guidance with an observational presence. What I value most about my job is the ability to connect with people and witness their stories unfold in raw, vulnerable ways. I hope that my work is a reflection of these moments: honest, emotive, and intentionally seen.

Awarded Best of Zola
Emma’s work is artistic, special, and outstanding. We LOVED working with her twice, for both an elopement and family celebration wedding day! She is extremely organized, detailed, prompt, and such a positive presence on your special day. She makes anyone and everyone comfortable in front of the camera and captures the day authentically (but with the most attention to detail you could hope for). She is wonderful and we are so lucky to have found her and been able to work with her! I would recommend her to ANYONE who wants unbelievable wedding photos that capture the magic, milestones, and tiny moments of the day.

Hey, I'm Mary! It's nice to meet you. What you must know: (1) I'm a nerd. If you want to talk video games, LOTR or Doctor Who, we HAVE to sit down for a bourbon or a coffee. (2) Yes, I will be out on that dance floor with you snapping away while joining in on the fun. And (3), while I'm a photographer first, supporting you during the planning process feels crucial to me - from building a timeline to having your back any way I can. Woman/LGBTQIA+ Owned

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 !

Stephen was amazing! He was an absolute pleasure to work with through the entire process! He was supportive, knowledgeable, patient, efficient, kind, and so talented!! There are so many little touches he adds that really contribute to the overall experience !!! I wont list them here as to not ruin the surprises he has in store for future couples he works with- but above and beyond doesn’t begin to describe it. My family is not easy to please or wrangle and they all couldn’t have been more impressed either! Perfect balance of “on top of every detail” and a “laid back/ stress free vibe”.

WildRoot Moments was absolutely incredible to work with for our wedding photography needs. Destiny, our photographer, was very communicative and detailed throughout the entire process. From our engagement and maternity photo sessions to the wedding day itself, she made everything seem so easy. Destiny had so many amazing pose ideas that we never would have thought of, and she made sure to capture a wide variety of beautiful, high-quality shots. We used the engagement and maternity photos for our wedding invitations and website. Destiny was a fun and easy person to work with, and her work was of the highest quality.

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Isaac’s photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking.

Hi, I'm Danny! My passion is to capture couples & their love story in a timeless way. I like to describe my style as a fusion between story-telling & editorial. I lean into true-to-life colors with a warm ambience and posing that's timeless but also interwoven with an editorial flare that's unique, artistic, and stylish. I also love incorporating story-telling stills that involve movement rather than a bunch of photos that feel "stiff" or overly posed. Story-telling moments bring wedding galleries life! I’d love the opportunity to connect with you, and hear more about your wedding vision!!

Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment we reached out to A Nomadic Love, their communication was quick, detailed, and responsive. My husband and I no longer live in Dallas, TX and despite the time zone difference, Carly was always so easy to reach out to regarding any questions or concerns about our wedding day. Carly and Elliot were both extremely professional, but also so easy to work with throughout the entire process both before, during, and after our wedding day! Three months prior to our wedding, Carly and Elliot even came to our wedding venue ahead of time to test the lighting, which was a concern of mine since our venue was indoors and I was concerned about how everything would photograph, especially in regards to my bright red wedding dress. In addition, the two of them worked so effectively throughout our wedding in regard to the photos. My husband wanted to be surprised when I walked down the aisle, so the only opportunity to take couple’s portraits was after our ceremony prior to the reception along with getting photos with our family. Their attention to detail and ability to work within our time constraints ensured we got beautiful photos that perfectly captured the joy and love of our special day. We couldn't be happier with the service and quality of work from A Nomadic Love, and would highly recommend them to any couple planning their wedding.

Working with the Big Shot Bun Company photographer and videographer was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. They were patient, attentive, and relatable, making us feel comfortable and at ease throughout the entire process. Their talent is truly magical - the photos they captured of our special day are perfect, showcasing their years of experience in a way that exceeds all of our expectations. They helped organize the logistics of when and where photos needed to happen, and even offered guidance on how we could best enjoy our wedding night, going above and beyond their duties as photographer/videographer. Both of them were so sweet and made sure all of our guests felt comfortable every step of the way. The photographer zoomed a couple times beforehand to ask questions, and about any family or friend situations to be aware of, which we thought was a thoughtful and smart approach. We got everything back WAY sooner than we thought we would, especially with it being around the holidays. These two seriously put in the work. We are thrilled with the final product and cannot recommend the Big Shot Bun Company highly enough.

Awarded Best of Zola
Choosing the right photographer is a big deal—truly one of the decisions that can make or break your entire experience. We met Nathan at the very beginning of our journey, during our engagement shoot at the Biltmore Estate. We were both nervous, awkward, and completely unsure of what to expect. Then Nathan arrived, and everything changed. Within minutes he had us laughing, relaxed, and genuinely enjoying ourselves. That was the moment we knew he wasn’t just talented—he was special. So when it came time to choose someone to capture our wedding in Sedona, we took a chance and asked if he would fly out. Honestly, we thought it was a long shot… but he immediately said yes. And thank goodness he did. I will never forget the moment he walked into the room on my wedding day. I had just started feeling that wave of nerves while finishing my hair, and the instant Nathan stepped in, I felt completely at ease. How does he do that? He has this quiet magic about him—an ability to ground you, hype you up, and disappear into the background all at once. His passion is infectious. His eye for intimate, meaningful moments is unreal. And somehow, while capturing every single one of those moments, he manages to remain practically invisible. When we received our gallery, we both laughed, cried, and sat there in awe. It felt like reliving the day, but through the lens of someone who truly understood us. To put it simply: Nathan is gifted. Exceptionally, unmistakably gifted. We even showed our engagement photos to another top-tier photographer, and her reaction was: “Book him immediately. His editing is some of the most incredible work I’ve seen—I want to talk to him myself!” If you're reading reviews trying to decide who to trust with your memories, stop here. You’ve found the one. Nathan exceeded every expectation we had—and then ten more we didn’t even know we should have. He is the best of the best.
