Hi! My name is Lily and I am the founder and head photographer at Lily Catherine Photography. My business focuses on capturing the best in whoever is in front of the camera. I shoot 15-20 Weddings, 10-20 Engagements, 5-10 Family and a handful of real estate jobs every year. When I'm not working, I'm spending time with my husband and three children.

Awarded Best of Zola
We got married in 2020 so it goes without saying that our plans changed drastically when it came to our wedding. Lily happily accommodated those changes and we ended up with the most beautiful wedding photos despite not being at the venue we dreamed of. We loved working with Lily, she was great at posing for group and solo shots but also captured some wonderful candids. I would 100% use her in the future for family photos.

My now husband and I, chose Jaimie to photograph our engagement, COVID Ceremony AND Post-Covid Reception and it was the best decision we ever made! Just like most people, we don't spend most of our time in front of the camera, so we were apprehensive about the whole process but Jaimie made us feel like old friends and made us feel so at ease! She has an amazing eye to get the best shot, but also make you feel and look like yourself. We had SO much fun and the pictures all turned out amazingly, do yourself a favor and book Jaimie for any professional pictures you may need!

Welcome to Russell Photography. This is not just my job, but my passion! Your wedding day is as special to me at it is to you! My #1 goal is to give you the most amazing photos for you to have for a lifetime. High quality photos, at an affordable price! Plus, we are going to have fun while doing it!! I bet you do not hire a photographer every day so we understand 100% how the process can be overwhelming. You photographer needs to be fun, personable and most important makes you feel comfortable. If that resonates with you, you have come to the right place. I can't wait to talk to you, get to know you and to hear all of your amazing plans!!

Lisa went above and beyond with every detail. She made sure my dress was positioned properly, she helped my awkward self know what to do when posing, she was so personable, and went the extra mile to keep me comfortable and feeling confident. After I made a comment about “my good side” she made sure I was always posing in ways that emphasized my good side. After receiving my preview I was so happy with how the photos came out. The pictures were clear and vibrant. She even captured candid moments that I will cherish forever. If I had to go back and do it again I would hire her 100 times over!

I'm Ondraea! Wedding photographer based in Buffalo, Ny, but would love to travel! Here at OGP, I strive to create an experience for my couples that goes beyond just taking the traditional ‘must-have’ wedding images. I believe that your gallery should be filled with genuine emotion, joyous laughs, and the intimate moments that take place between you and your loved ones. My job isn’t to just snap photos of your day, but to document each second in a way that allows you to not only relive the moments you remember but allow you to feel as though you were a part of moments you may not even know happened on your wedding day!

Awarded Best of Zola
I started using Ondraea as a second photographer and photography assistant at weddings in 2019. We worked together closely and I quickly realized her value. She is always so on top of everything, wanting perfection (like I do), and makes my couples feel comfortable in front of the camera. She has been my personal replacement in emergencies, and my highest recommendation as a main photographer. Her portfolio speaks for itself. She is respectful, trustworthy, kind, observant, and hardworking. She’s the best!

We are photographers based in Western New York. We're passionate when it comes to capturing those timeless in-between moments. When I'm not shooting, you can find me either hiking, tending to my ridiculous amount of houseplants, playing video games, or drawing. We specialize in weddings, couples, family and singles photo shoots. We love meeting new clients and getting the opportunity to capture moments that they can cherish for a lifetime. The only thing we love more is when clients become lifelong friends! Let's capture memories together!

Bound and Branch was absolutely perfect and they exceeded all of our expectations. Justin and Cedric were charismatic, comforting, fun to be around and skilled at their trade. As I sit here writing this review, I cannot think of adequate enough words to describe how beautifully they captured our special day and how much we enjoyed their company. They are the most down to earth photographers, and people, I’ve ever met. Bound and Branch will forever be our go to for every photography need! Thank you, Justin and Cedric! :)

For the past decade, I have worked tirelessly to hone my craft to create beautiful moment based compositions. Stories are what drive me each and every day. Life is a story, let me be a part of telling yours. My desire to visit anywhere and everywhere makes me the perfect candidate for your big adventure! Near or far, I am always excited to travel to you for your moments big or small.

Awarded Best of Zola
Sarah is incredible - she's the kind of person you WANT at your wedding, birthday, family gathering, party. She is so professional, her photographs are incredible and she's got a great sense of humor. Not only have we had the pleasure of asking Sarah to capture milestones in our life (wedding, child, dog), we have also gotten to see her work at many of our close friends weddings. Sarah makes you feel entirely comfortable whilst being photographed, and all of her directives are clear and concise. She always puts the bride/groom first and I'm always amazed by her calm demeanor at the often-times very busy wedding ceremonies and receptions. When you hire Sarah, you're going to know that on the day she is going to capture exactly what you want. When she sends you the sneak peak, you're going to be blown away, and when she gives you the password for ALL of your photos, it will put a huge smile on your face because you'll realize that somehow, Sarah really did capture in photos exactly what your celebration felt like on the day.

Since 2010, I've been connecting with individuals, couples, and their families to capture and create beautiful memories. Whether it was a family session filled with laughs while trying to get the father to smile, a shy senior showing confidence in their senior portrait session, or a beautiful couple saying yes to forever together, I've been there to capture all of the love. I've also worked with a variety of clients such as Canisius College, Fisher-Price, Mattel, Thomas & Friends, the Associated Press, The Guinness Book of World Records, and more.

Awarded Best of Zola
I’ve known Brianna since my freshman year of college. I fell in love with her work and jokingly told her she would one day be the photographer for my wedding when I wasn’t engaged yet. When I finally found Mr. Right, I booked her right away. Her pricing is amazing, her work is phenomenal. She is so down to Earth and has such a beautiful, authentic personality. My husband hates getting his picture taken as well as attention. Brianna made him feel comfortable and we had so much fun on our special day. She gets so excited about editing your photos as you are to receive them, so expect a quick turn around. She doesn’t rush, she just genuinely loves her work. She balances professionalism with being a kind hearted person. So many photographers can come off as robotic and cold, she is the complete opposite and her communication with you from beginning to the end is awesome as well. Even with a pandemic, she adjusted and made our day feel as normal as it could get even with all of the safety regulations. I cannot recommend her enough. She’s the best!

I am a wedding and elopement photographer located in Wyoming county. I love to take photos of weddings and elopements. Some say I have a true passion for what I do. I have learned a lot since I started and each wedding or session I am always striving to learn more. As a business owner I am fully insured and strive to be professional at everything I do. It's my goal to be able to do this full time someday! I love being able to capture someone's day it brings me happiness. I'm a pretty laid back go with the flow type of person. I do my absolute best to provide you with photos you'll remember forever.

I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer. Tabatha was more than willing to help with any wedding issues I had. She captured so many amazing photos. I’m so thankful we chose her for our big day. Because of her, our wedding was captured in beautiful photos to be reminded of our gorgeous day.

Kiran Photography

I’ll be the first to say I never thought I’d be here doing this. The day after I received my Bachelors in Science degree, I picked my childhood camera back up again and realized how effortlessly photography came to me. I was asked to do 2 weddings that year.. which turned into the 25 a year I do now... and I never looked back. Almost a decade later, I've worked in places like the tropical beaches of Puerto Vallarta to the serene rolling hills of Italy and everywhere in between, my one primary goal has remained to document love in the most authentic way.

Kiran is THE BEST couples photographer in the WNY area! We found her wedding photography page on Instagram while searching for Buffalo photographers. What we LOVE most about Kiran’s work is that her style of editing is true to tone, which is extremely important to us as a mixed and interracial couple. From the beginning Kiran made us feel cared for and was detailed with what we could expect throughout the process, which put our minds at ease during the day of. Kiran made us feel confident and comfortable while capturing all the special and intimate moments. She was so much fun to work with and the quality of her work shows throughout our gallery. We would recommend Kiran to everyone looking for a wedding/couples photographer and we are looking forward to working with Kiran again for as our destination photographer!

Love is rare, wild and true. Let me worry about capturing your fleeting moments while you soak up all the good vibes! Im a wedding and elopement photographer based out of Buffalo, NY but I love to travel. Let’s adventure!

Michelle Godfrey Photo's communication was fast, anytime of day or night, which was so helpful during the busy wedding planning process. The quality of their work and value was absolutely amazing, beyond what I could have imagined. Michelle was so attentive - I had almost forgotten my veil and she reminded me, and she made sure to capture all the special moments I love. She listened to everything I wanted and made the day so special, never making me feel like I was being shoved into taking more and more pictures. Michelle was simply perfect and I couldn't have asked for a better wedding photographer.

Weddings, births, celebrations—the priceless moments that make up a life. At Moonshine we’re love-obsessed. We live to photograph all that matters to you with a vision that’s creative, unique and personal; as special as the time you share with your loved ones, forever captured to keep & share always.

Megan was the first photographer that we sat down with to discuss our wedding photography and after that first meeting, we felt zero need to speak with anyone else because we loved her so much. She and her sister photographed our wedding and did a phenomenal job. We received hundreds of photos within 3 weeks of our wedding and we couldn't be happier with them. We can't wait to see them all once they are done being edited. They were a dream to work with and I am so happy we went with Moonshine!
