  • Photojournalistic style

I am a healer, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, Intuitive Tarot and Past Life Regression Reader, clay artist, self-taught photographer, chased of natural light, bee lover. Photography is my creative happy place and for as long as I can remember, I've always carried a camera around my neck. I'm an art enthusiast, a hopeless romantic and a documenter of soulful memories and joyful love stories that will last a lifetime. I am meticulous in my work, yet at the same time, I can improvise in the moment. A wedding is never a challenge should it go off planned course, but rather a series of enchanting opportunities.

Awarded Best of Zola
We loved working with Ella! I was looking for a photographer I could click with, friendly and artistic. After a long search, I was happy to come across her page. I contacted her with a thousand and one questions, and she was sweet and responded in a timely fashion. She advised on venues that might accommodate my guests, djs she's worked with, catering businesses that her previous brides used, florists - I mean, I was so happy to have an insight, as a new bride I had no idea where to turn, and I was happy to get her help. On our wedding day, Ella was everywhere I turned my head. She got to the venue a little before our scheduled time and took pictures of our venue and table décor and scouted places we could do our family and bridal pictures at. I wanted a first look with my Dad - and Ella organized that to happen without ruining the moment. I liked that she suggested things I haven't thought about, like a first look with my bridesmaids, cute pictures with my flower girls, etc. Every detail I wanted, Ella captured, and so much more. Our wedding pictures are so beautiful, I sit and look through them every few months and sometimes I print different ones for our living room walls.

We live for the little in between candid moments that you’ll look back at and think - they were capturing this!? Your happiness is what makes Julia Hart thrive.

Awarded Best of Zola
I was lucky enough to have Julia Hart be a part of my small wedding in November 2020 and again for my big wedding in November 2021. Despite already being married and having her back for a second time, Julia, Raleigh, and team made us feel like it was our first celebration all over again. From the beginning of planning in spring 2019 to finally having our big day in Fall 2021, Julia was there to encourage, reassure, and help with everything along the way. On the day of Julia is more than just a photographer, she is coordinating with the venue, the families, the DJ all to make sure everything is in time and executed perfectly. Julia had the full galleries delivered to me electronically and in person within 8 weeks as promised! She is thoughtful in her delivery and my husband and I couldn’t have asked for better photos and videos from both of our weddings. Julia is worth every penny and knowing you have video in addition to photo is the icing on the cake!

Dani T Photography

  • Photojournalistic style

  • Serves Canandaigua, NY

I've photographed 100+ weddings and countless engagements during this wild ride of a career, that started about 10 years ago. Trust me, when I say, I have seen it all. From busting my best moves on the dance floor, getting that wild uncle away from the bar for family formals, to making sure you feel like the baddest B in the room..I've got you! Need help with a timeline, what to wear for your engagement session or what location is going to rock your world? I've got it under control.

Dani is undeniably exceptional. Her work starts weeks/months before wedding day as she makes a point to get to know you, your vision, any pertinent family details and dynamics, and how she can capture not just our day but who you are. My now husband doesn't love being in front of the camera but she made him feel comfortable and at ease. She has a way of blending in perfectly while having a fun and calming presence that was very much needed. Dani's eye is amazing and our photos were romantic, fun, and stunning! We had a very unique wedding at a wildlife museum in update New York where everything was DIY. She noticed every detail and could read the room as well as our DJ. We are so grateful for her for helping us to embrace our special day and giving us memories through her photos that will last the rest of our lives. Do yourself a favor and include her in your wedding day or any other special moment you want captured. If you are lucky you'll also walk away with a lifelong friend.

Kenzie Gates Photo

  • Photojournalistic style

  • Serves Canandaigua, NY

Capturing the perfect shot isn't just about clicking a button – it's about feeling the vibe of the room with finesse and a special eye. From directing family formals to wrangling tipsy groomsmen (hey, it happens!), I've got the knack for orchestrating those must-have photos. I also know when to step back and snag those authentic, unfiltered moments (like drunk groomsmen dancing!) that make your story complete.

Kenzie Gates Photo was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding photography. Kenzie's communication throughout the planning process was fast, quick, and informative - she always responded to messages within a day and kept us updated on timelines and details. The quality and value of her work is magnificent, breathtaking and phenomenal. She perfectly captured the special moments of our wedding day and got all the pictures we could have ever dreamed of. Her artistic eye and talent shine through in the photos. The final wedding album she designed told the story of our love beautifully. I would highly recommend Kenzie Gates Photo to any couple looking for a photographer who delivers exceptional results and is a pleasure to work with.

With unwavering inclusivity, I capture the spirit of all my clients, including the LGBTQ+ community. I love what I do and because of that, I put my all into it. I want to capture the moments that reflect the genuine emotions and connections shared between couples. The candid interactions that unfold throughout the day. My aim is to create a visual narrative, a collection of images that transport you back to that magical day, evoking laughter, and tears of happiness. When sending your wedding gallery over, I imagine you looking through it together and I want you to be taken back to that day.

Working with C.M. Russ Photography was nothing short of amazing. Working with plenty of photographers over the years I have seen it all. He is easy to work with, a great personality, great turnaround time, and very skilled at what he does. I highly recommend working with him!

  • Serves Canandaigua, NY

Personally, I’ll totally take timeless and authentic over trendy any day. To me, authentic moments always make for more beautiful and personal photographs. Because of this, it’s truly important to me that your wedding pictures say something real about you and who you are as a couple at the beginning, on this day together.

We had such a great experience with Michael as our wedding photographer. He made planning and communication easy; very responsive and he encouraged us to meet a few times before the wedding. During these meetings we went over the schedule and any updates that should be added and Michael really spent time getting to know us and what we wanted from our pictures. On the wedding day, we felt well prepared for our schedule and confident that he would capture the moments and people that were important for us. Neither of us are comfortable being in front of a camera and both Michael and his second photographer, Devon, helped us have fun and relax. I would absolutely recommend him!

On the big day, Katie made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera while capturing timeless photos that were pure art and exactly what we envisioned. My husband didn't quite understand why photography was such a priority initially, but once we got our sneak peeks, we were both blown away by the images.
