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.

Erin Glover Weddings

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $6,495
  • Serves Waterford, NY

I got my start at a luxury wedding studio in NYC in 2014, shooting weddings in all of the city's classic venues. In 2021, I decided to make some changes to move my business in a more boutique direction and relocate to the Catskills. I aim to bring the same attention to detail and professionalism from the NYC luxury market to my clients in the Catskills and beyond. My style leans more classic to ensure that your wedding photos will be heirlooms and stand the test of time, despite how many fun prevalent trends are making waves on social media at any given time.

My fiancé set up a surprise engagement photo shoot and Erin was amazing! Erin made us both feel comfortable and at ease for 2 people who aren’t used to taking professional photos. Erin knew the space/area we were staying in so well and was able to direct us to take photos in certain locations that came out amazing. Erin delivered sneak peek photos less than 12 hours later and the full gallery earlier than two weeks. Erin was a pleasure to work with and I hope we have friends that use her in the future! - Allie

Our photographer was calm, kind, and so fun to work with — even my husband, who hates photos, ended up enjoying the process. We received our gallery quickly, and every single image feels emotional and beautifully captured. They truly know how to tell the story of the day.

From our very first meeting with Rayleen to discuss what we wanted out of our wedding photos and engagement session, we knew we were in the right hands. She was bubbly, asked the right questions, giving us the feeling that she genuinely wanted to get to know us, and attentive to detail. These characteristics show through her work and we will treasure these photos for the rest of our lives. I also want to add that if you feel semi awkward having photos taken of you like I do, have no fear with Rayleen! I so appreciated that she would gently move me into a position that was the most flattering for me and made me feel so confident. Our photos came out so incredibly beautiful and we will be booking with Rayleen for any and all future events for photography.

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 did a wonderful job photographing our backyard wedding. He did a brilliant job capturing my visions as well as brought ideas of his own.

I honestly don’t even know where to start, that’s how happy I am with everything. From the very begining they made me feel comfortable, like I was in good hands. On the wedding day I was nervous and emotional, but they helped calm me down just by being so professional and KIND. The photos are absolutely breathtaking, like straight from a magazine but still real and us. The video… omg, the video made me cry, laugh, and cry again all in one sitting. They caught little moments I didn’t even see during the day because everything was happening so fast. My favorite part is how NATURAL everyone looks, not stiff or posed fake. They blended in like friends and made everyone relax, even my shy dad. I look back at these photos every week because I can’t believe it’s real. It’s more than just pictures and video, it’s my memories saved forever. Best decision we made, no doubt about it.

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.

Hi! It's so nice to meet you! I'm a Pennsylvania, New Jersey and New York Photographer from Scranton, Pa. I began my journey as a wedding musician, playing in countless bands in Pennsylvania. It wasn't until the birth of my son that I was thrust into the world of photography. As soon as I snapped my first photo of him, I found the beauty of photography. I quickly noticed the parallels between the music I create and the photos I was taking. The balance between light and dark, joy and sadness, bold and muted, energetic and relaxed intrigued me and drove me to this passion.

At Nebu Photography, we don’t just document weddings — we tell love stories through cinematic video and editorial-style photography, crafted with care, skill, and heart.

Nebu took headshots for my first NYC job back in 2018. Usually, companies provide headshots like school pictures and they’re always awful. So Nebu offered his services. Seven years later, I’m still using the photo Nebu took of me. It’s the best headshot I’ve ever had, even though I’ve paid other photographers since and haven’t loved any of them the same way. I would recommend Nebu 10,000% and he’s such a genuinely good person, which makes the whole experience comfortable and easy.

I strive to create images that convey heartfelt narratives and reflect the true essence of your relationship and the moments you share.

We had the absolute best time with Momo! We booked her for our wedding in May and did our engagement shoot the other day. Momo is an incredibly professional, talented, and kind individual. From the moment we started the shoot she was fully focused on us and capturing our best moments. She guided us through as this was the first time my fiancé and I were ever professionally photographed, and there was no awkward period, we instantly felt comfortable in front of her camera. We ended up having a rainy day and said let’s do it anyway, and had a great time. We got our photos back and WOW! They are better than we could have ever imagined! Momo took our vision and went above and beyond to make it a reality. Our photos feel like she captured intimate moments of our lives, in a cinematic and romantic way. And we got SO MANY GOOD ONES! We have to pick one for save the dates and it is just so difficult. If you’re looking for a photographer that truly cares to capture your vision, Momo Shot Photography will deliver.

Shukhrat Kamalov was a standout HIT. Our guests felt like absolute celebs! We didn't want the standard photobooth as it can come off a little too cheesy for my tastes. And since we were asking all of our guests to come dressed in their best, we decided it was only appropriate they also get their own designated photographer. Shukhrat took his time with each of our guest's photo sessions, directing them and taking multiple shots until our guests loved what he captured. AND he printed them out so our guests had something to bring home. All of our guests told us that these photos would be framed in their home . THEY WERE THAT GOOD.
