We are CityLux Studios - a husband + wife photography team based in the Boston area but we LOOOVE to travel. We photograph marriage proposals, weddings, boudoir and more! Sarah's passion for raw emotion + Peter's strong attention to detail blend to make an unmatched experience for each client. It's so important that we make each Bride + Groom feel confident, comfortable and completely at ease. Being married, we have been there and done that - so we know exactly how you're feeling!

I had the most incredible experience with Kyra from CityLux Studios. I’m not originally from New England and she helped me narrow down the best areas for pictures in Boston. She was so fun to work with and truly made this experience so wonderful. My fiancé hates getting pictures done and he even said he had such a great time. I am getting married back home in Iowa and was originally only going to use CityLux for engagement photos, however, it was such an incredible experience we are going to use them for our wedding next year. I can’t imagine having anyone else shoot our wedding. I felt so comfortable and she was able to truly capture the love in our relationship in photos. Attached are some of my favorite photos from our shoot. I would recommend CityLux to everyone for any occasions.

Sandy Soohoo is a dream. She is extremely talented and creative, knowledgeable about the industry, realistic about the challenges, reliable and responsive- all while being a joyous energy and pleasure to be around. For those reasons, I couldn't have imagined a better photographer for our wedding - or person to be by my side throughout that entire day and evening. She works with a variety of mediums (lens, cameras, flash/no flash) to obtain a variety of styles for the photos, which all turned out unique and fully capturing different "perspectives" of the event - and most importantly, capturing the true essence of the joy and outward and inner beauty of the wedding. The photos turned out beautiful, have this journalistic yet ethereal feel- an artistic quality which I believe is a rare skill. I'm so thankful for having worked with Sandy!!

Rebeca and Andrew were great! From the moment we first reached out to them about booking, they have always been very genuine and helpful. Rebeca was very good with remembering what shots & poses I wanted. We ran behind on timing due to other reasons so I was worried we wouldn't get all the pictures done in time before the ceremony but they were great at making sure we got what we wanted. We got over 100 sneak peak photos a few days after the wedding and so far we love everything! Cannot wait to see more and would recommend R&A to anyone! Also highly recommend doing your engagement photos with them as it was a great way to get to know them & get comfortable before the big day!

Hi! I’m Justin (he/him) and I’m here to affirm your love, make you feel like a fucking rockstar, and dance like a total fool. Oh, and take so many gorgeous photos of y’all. Obvs. My style blends both documentary photojournalism and fine art photography: coaching folks who are shy in front of the camera, then stepping back to capture authentic moments uninterrupted. I’ve been lucky enough to have my work published by A Practical Wedding, The New York Times, GLAMOUR, People Magazine and many other fabulous outlets. I'm a stereotypical Capricorn that loves drag shows, campy horror films, every dog I meet, and Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups.

Awarded Best of Zola
We absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVED our engagement photo session and photos from Justin McCallum. The whole experience with Justin was amazing. My fiancé and I felt so at ease, and we wish he could photograph us all the time. We knew we were going to have a good time and the photos were going to be great but the whole shoot really exceeded our expectations. One of the things that was important to us was to have our dog be a part of our engagement shoot. Justin was so accommodating and had no problem incorporating him into the session.   I was particularly worried about how people were going to react with how I look in our photoshoot. I'm a proud plus size girl, but my whole life it has been rare for me to take a photo without SOME sort of comment about my appearance from others. There was a good two years where I just did not take photos of myself which I really regret. When I got the photos back from Justin I just felt so beautiful and confident, really how every bride should always feel. I did not care what comments were coming my way because of how proud I was of the shoot. I'm crying writing this which is silly but I want everyone to know how beautiful I felt in my engagement photos! We absolutely recommend Justin to everyone. If you are not someone who is used to the camera or uncomfortable in front of the camera, definitely book with Justin, he will make everything easy and you will feel beautiful!

Hey, I'm Mary! It's nice to meet you. Summing up who I am in an "about me" is always difficult. 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.

We are a family owned and operated studio delivering Photography & Cinematic Video.

At PSPi we tell your wedding day story in a new style. A style that blends photo journalism with an unobtrusive cinematic approach. Bringing back that powerful and emotional experience to a product that is personal, unique, modern and artistic.

From the first phone call with Pavel, I knew we were going to have an amazing team. Pavel was so incredibly thorough and reassuring and helped create a perfect timeline for the day. The team, Eddy, Rob & Dave, were so charismatic and knowledgeable. They knew exactly what to do and what instructions to give my husband and I to create the most beautiful and intimate photos. We’re a little camera shy, so the fact they were able to direct us and make us feel comfortable shows their expertise. We are so beyond happy with our photos, full length video and highlight reels. Also - I have to say, the team is so great at capturing AMAZING candids during the party! There were times I didn’t even know they were behind me, and I am so happy to have all these moments captured. I did not feel like I had a camera in my face during the party at all! We had 3K AMAZING photos to look through, and EVERY photo is fantastic. I have also watched my highlight reel so many times, and I’ve already watched my full length film and plan on watching it again with my parents. I will seriously be recommending PSPI to everyone I know!! THANK YOU PSPI!!

Hey there! My name is Emilee, and I am a Minnesota-native living in NYC! I've been photographing people and events for 15 years. I shoot families, couples, individuals, and pets, but my passion lies in wedding photography. I love capturing the whirlwind of a couples' big day, and seeing the love that is shared between them and all their wedding guests. It's magical and wonderful every. single. time.

Awarded Best of Zola
What a dream Emilee was to work with, from start to finish. OUR CEREMONY PARTY: we decided on a private, courthouse elopement on a Wednesday, a 60 person reception party on a Friday. In both, our biggest priority was having a photographer capture the intimate, joyful small details. We went with Emilee because of her eye for the beauty in the small things. She captured both our days perfectly. DOCUMENTARY STYLE: Emilee was perfect behind the scenes, capturing beautiful moments of our friends and family, small details of the courthouse with just us. I look back at some of these photos and ask "how did she even get that?!" She has such an eye. POSED: We had about 20 minutes dedicated to posed, family photos during our reception. Emilee had our families relaxed and laughing, quickly swapping members in and out. In some newlywed photos, we sought her advice for how to pose. She gave quick direction, made us feel confident, and always found the perfect light. COMMUNICATION SPEED: Delivered on every promise, quick replies. Emilee was 15 minutes early to both locations, we never had to worry. PERSONALLY: We met with Emilee about 4 months before our big days. We had coffee, talked about our vision and our biggest priorities. She immediately felt like a friend, and knew she was firmly on our team. If you're looking for a photographer to capture not only beautiful photos of yourself, but more importantly, the feeling in every room, Emilee is the photographer for you. We recommend wholeheartedly, and can't wait for another occasion to work with her. Sincerely, Mara James

Hi, my name is Millie! I picked up a camera 11 years ago and I've been wholeheartedly devoted to this craft ever since. Through photography, I've come to understand that the meaningful connections I form with others hold a special significance for me and should be documented. My journey has naturally directed me toward wedding photography, enabling me to translate your love into art. To me, nothing compares to distilling love into photographs.

Best word to describe Millie…UNMATCHED! Millie has been so responsive from DAY 1. She photographed our engagement session back in April 2023. She was just as invested in checking the weather for that weekend as much as I was! She made the experience so seemless and the photos came out effortlessly and captured our love even though we were camera shy. Aside from being our photographer for our engagment session - she also photographed our wedding recently (June 2024) and through our numerous video calls she made a timeline! This was so helpful with planning! We received our gallery in such a short period of time that I was in such disbelief. I lived the photos and our story she captured - I will forever be grateful!

Awarded Best of Zola
If you are looking for an incredibly talented, professional, warm and creative wedding photographer then look no further. My husband and I feel so, so lucky to have worked with Celeste for our February 2022 wedding! We initially hired Celeste for our Brooklyn wedding planned for June 2020. After multiple postponements and major changes to our original plans, we settled on a February 2022 wedding in Marietta, GA. Celeste was an absolute gem through all of these changes, always super accommodating and understanding. Celeste is incredibly talented and shot absolutely gorgeous moments we are so lucky that she captured! She really goes out of her way to ensure a flawless experience. For instance, the day before our wedding, she scoped out the location for our "first look" and organized a shot list of different locations around the square that would make phenomenal backdrops. And they truly were- are now some of our favorite shots! Celeste is so friendly, warm, and just lovely to work with from start to finish. My sister also hired her for her engagement photos and had an equally superb experience! I look forward to working with Celeste again. Thank you for helping us preserve our wedding day memories so beautifully, Celeste!!

John Castillo and team has been amazing and effortless to work with from the day we booked them. I admired their work for a awhile and always knew I wanted them to be our wedding photographers, but they even exceeded our expectations. John and the team made our wedding day perfect. They are not only extremely talented at what they do, but such good people and so much fun to be around. We honestly loved taking our pictures and spending the day with them. They made our day so much fun. John is amazing, was always an email or phone call away to answer any questions, and is so sweet and kind.

I'm in love with human emotions, either it's laughing till it hurts or tears of happiness. When your man hugs you so strong, that you can't breathe or when your dad is crying (for the first time in his life!) listening to your vows at the altar. I do believe, that these un-staged moments are more meaningful than classy portraits on a sunset (but no worries, you'll plenty of both!) If you feel like we are on the same page - let's talk! Write me a few words about who you are, tell me your story and let's create something beautiful together!

I know Dasha for many years and love working with her both on the weddings and on my personal inspirational projects (she’d shoot a number of my dresses over the years) Dasha is very easy going person, who’s always up for something new and creative.

Weddings by Hanel (pronounced like Chanel without a c) is a wedding photo & video studio creatively blending artistic photojournalism with beautiful portraiture. Our philosophy for photographing weddings is based on the belief that the most important part of our job is telling your story as beautifully as the story itself. Everything else is secondary. With hundreds of weddings under our belts, my team and I have been a part of weddings of all colors, sizes, and locations. Our destination weddings have taken them to some incredible locations, including Hawaii, Korea, and Aruba.

Awarded Best of Zola
We booked Hanel for both our engagement shoot and wedding. We cannot say anymore great things about him. His email responses were timely, thorough and it was incredibly easy to set up time to meet with him to discuss his and our visions. My husband and I are not camera people in the slightest, and often make silly faces in order to balance our awkwardness. However, Hanel and his assistant made us feel at ease during both shoots, and gave easy directions for us to follow throughout that ultimately made us feel confident and comfortable in front of the camera. They were so welcoming/friendly, and we felt like we were just hanging out with our friends for the day. Hanel was able to handle the chaos that were my family and friends on the wedding day, and easily navigated all the different groupings for photos the day of with immense ease. He kept to our wedding timeline without making us feel rushed. Our photos were sent back to us quickly after a month, and they were absolutely gorgeous. I had never felt so beautiful in my life (neither has my husband) and Hanel was able to capture those feelings forever for us. Thank you again for everything Hanel.

  • Photojournalistic style

I found my love for photography in a high school dark room, and I have continued to follow that passion to find myself today working as a hybrid photographer in both Film and Digital. I strive not to just take pictures, but to capture candid emotions and capture them in a beautiful way. My photography is personal and intimate. My approach is a mixture of fine art and documentary, I try to capture your moments and day as it happened but highlighting the special details and taking advantage of the best lighting. As a lover of history I love capturing personal and family histories that surround weddings.

Awarded Best of Zola
LOVE! LOVE! LOVE! When we decide to have a wedding and not elope we knew our budget would be tight, but the photographer was the one thing we weren’t willing to compromise on. The catering and the venue could be modest, but our photographs will be part of our big day forever. Judson is the most kind and professional person we have worked with for our wedding. She was able to assist us through out the whole engagement through to the wedding day. Her artistic talent speaks for itself in the quality of our pictures. We couldn’t of asked for a more lovely person to work with. She was able to help us express our love and capture the true beauty of how we were loved.

Jenny Flora Photography 

5.0

New York, NY
  • Fine art style

Before I ever held a camera, as a kid I was obsessed with organizing and reorganizing printed family snapshots in albums. This infatuation with captured moments, led to picking out my first film camera, a 35mm Pentax, film developing and darkroom printing in high school, and then my BFA in Photography Degree. From there, I worked in varied sectors of photography, but my true passion lay in documentary work that could bring about awareness of challenging global situations. I have published and exhibited journalistic series internationally, notably at Oxford University and Aperture Foundation.

Jenny is an absolute gem! We are so happy we found her to photograph our modern beach wedding at The Wave in Long Branch, NJ. Jenny has an amazing eye and took advantage of all the beautiful aspects of the venue allowing for a great variety of photos. And a good mix of candid and posed shots. It was so apparent that takes such pride in her work and loves the art, making us feel so comfortable and calm the entire time. Both my husband and I are camera shy but Jenny gave us clear direction and took into consideration everything we were and weren’t looking for. Jenny and Camilla were also extremely flexible and supportive the entire day. We can’t thank them enough for their enthusiasm and dedication. It’s so apparent in their work. Thank you, Chris & Danielle

It was awesome working with Eugene!! The results were exactly not what we intended or planned, they were actually MUCH BETTER. My husband and I had a set place, but due to unforeseen events, we had to sort of improvise And change our photography setting, but thankfully Eugene has an eye for these things, and found much more beautiful spot! My husband and I love the fact that Eugene was not rigid, but he was very flexible with us which help us be more comfortable with him. If you were doubting, that’s fine, but not with Eugene Krasnaok.

Mei Day Photography

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $1,200

Hi, I'm Mei! I first started out in photography just taking photos of friends in college, and now I get to photograph weddings, performances, celebrations, special events, and everything in between. Whether you're a natural in front of the camera or you hide whenever one comes out (like me!), I'm ready to capture you at your most radiant.

I am not exaggerating when I say that the thing we have gotten the most complements on since our special day is the photos themselves. Mei is phenomenal at capturing tender and exuberant moments AS THEY HAPPEN. Nothing looks staged because nothing felt staged. She was there with us to make every step of what could have been a very stressful day feel as fun, loving, and exciting as possible. From booking to planning to the wedding weekend itself, Mei was communicative, gentle, and intentional. She wasn't just there to capture the weekend, she improved it in every way. I could not imagine a better photographer to work with—from communication to vibes to the photos themselves, Mei is the best of the best!

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $5,500

I photograph love because I believe in it. I don’t believe in it in the way that a little girl believes in ferries or unicorns, a hopeful “I think it is real” kind of a belief, I believe in its power. I believe that love is the most important emotion we will feel in this lifetime and I believe it has the greatest ability for good. I believe that each human on this earth should have the opportunity to feel deeply loved and to love another deeply themselves. I believe that love is something that should be treasured, cared for, and celebrated.

Awarded Best of Zola
Allison was an absolute pleasure to work with. She is professional, talented, and passionate about her work. She made our day significantly less stressful by being organized and efficient. She has the most inviting personality, and we warmed up to her so quickly I felt like she was just another friend hanging out with the bridal party while she was taking my getting-ready photos. Last, but not least, our wedding photos are absolutely stunning and something we will always treasure. I could really go on and on, but all you need to know is you will not regret booking her!

A little about me...I love color; maybe the purple hair tipped you off? I almost always have a bag of (biodegradable) confetti on me. You never know when you’ll need it! I have a cat named Icarus who has too many toes and likes to dress up like a lion. I used to work in publishing, where I was mostly getting romance novels published in other countries. I’m in a family band. And I can’t believe my job is to document wonderful, beautiful people and the most joyful moments of their lives. NOTE: Beginning in 2022, I'll be taking on ONLY elopements and microweddings.

After graduating from Parson's School of Art in Manhattan, I worked as a fine artist, my work involved photography and photo manipulation.

I realized that I had found my calling and have been producing stunning wedding photographs with my amazing team and clients ever since.

Emma Cleary and her team have been phenomenal to work with. Emma responds to e-mails quickly & has provided useful feedback throughout this process. When we had to change our reception date due to COVID, she worked with us to ensure that the dates aligned. Massimo (photographer) and Edison (videographer) have been amazing to work with and they shot our micro wedding. Planning a wedding during a pandemic is stressful, but Emma and her team made this process a seamless. The photos and videos are beautiful and we will treasure them. Thank you again!

Hi there, my beautiful people! This bio had all the chances to turn into one of those lengthy chat GPT-generated texts which would make your eyes roll up as you scroll down.
