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 got very lucky finding Mary as our photographer. She was our photographer for our engagement party, engagement photos, and the wedding day. She always made time to talk and keep an open line of communication! She was great at making us feel comfortable and giving directions (which we definitely needed). Mary is also extremely thoughtful and I really appreciate the little things she had done to make everything as perfect as possible!

I began shooting weddings in 2011 and have shot over 300 weddings from coast to coast, north and south, and in Europe. I was born on a dirt road in Texas but raised in New York. The Hudson Valley has been my home for over 30 years. I have a passion for riding my motorcycle Betty, travel, hiking, my 2 huskies, my rescue cats, and my 100+ thriving houseplants. I have a bachelors degree in Fine Art Photography and a minor in Art History. My approach to photography is deeply rooted in my love an appreciation for art and the human form. As someone who loves love, I know how special your day is. My goal is to capture that magic.

Working with Caitlinn for our wedding was an AMAZING experience. We couldn’t be happier with our photos! I told her from the get go that my fiancé (now husband!) and I never take good photos, but she assured me that our photos would look natural and not overly posed, which is what we wanted. Caitlinn responded promptly to every email and worked with us to create an efficient timeline for our very large family and bridal party. We had four small children in our bridal party and Caitlinn handled them like an expert and got some amazing shots of all of them! She is incredibly organized and best of all, we received a “sneak preview” of our photo gallery one or two days after the wedding, and the entire photo gallery within a week of the wedding! And the pictures, OMG are they beautiful. The hardest part is choosing which photos to put in our album - they are all that good! (But we get to keep the full digital photo gallery which is being displayed on a digital frame). I particularly appreciated how “unobtrusive” her style is - especially during the very emotional moments like our first look - we didn’t “feel” like we were being photographed so we were able to enjoy the moment and act naturally. She captured all of the big moments and the small details too and her artistic eye created beautiful shots of everything from getting ready all the way to the cake cutting and everything in between. Caitlinn is also an incredibly lovely person - her energy carries through in everything she does, and we felt so comfortable from her right from the get go. Truly I can’t say enough about this wonderful photographer and person - she created beautiful memories for us that we will cherish forever.

Lindsay Lazare Photography 

5.0

  • Fine art style
  • Serves New Paltz, NY

I’m the self-declared winner of “most likely to hear someone’s life story in unexpected places.” Whether it’s an antique shop owner telling me about her and her late husband’s favorite meal from their Italian vacation 40 years ago, or a fellow TJ Maxx customer recalling how she met her best friend of 17 years in a shared hospital room, I listen. And not a polite listen, but an I really give a shit listen. At the core of my being, I’m story obsessed. It’s why I was an English major in college and why I fell in love with photography. If there is a story to be heard, I will listen. And if there's a story to be told, I'll tell it.

Awarded Best of Zola
Choosing Lindsay to be our photographer for our 10.19.19 wedding was 100% one of the best decisions we made throughout our wedding planning process. Lindsay was calm and collected, while continuing to keep everyone on track with a tight timeline. We felt that she was genuinely invested in our story as a couple as well as capturing the moments that we will now be able to treasure for years to come. Her second shooter was also incredible and they worked seamlessly together. Within 24 hours we had a sneak peek to view with a wonderful mix of both formal and candid moments, and we cannot wait for the full album. Lindsay, thank you for going above and beyond. We cannot thank you enough!

  • Serves New Paltz, NY

Hi! I'm Maria! I am a New York based fine-art wedding photographer that longs to capture real and authentic love anywhere and everywhere. I say Fine Art because I actually have a fine arts degree in photography. I am a happy wife who mar­ried her high-school sweetheart, an art book hoarder and slightly dog obsessed. I have loved photographing for as long as I can remember.

Maria is an absolute superstar behind the camera! We are blown away by our wedding day previews and engagement session photos. She captured our day perfectly and made us look so cool!! I am most grateful for her calm yet confident demeanor in the less than fun/uncomfortable moments that naturally come with weddings. Going into our engagement session, my husband and I had never been photographed together before, so we were definitely giving awkward couple energy. Maria took her time to talk to us on a personal level until we were relaxed enough to frolic around for our session. Come wedding day, we felt like professionals and being natural behind the camera was easy. She gave us energy when we were lacking it and kept things moving when we needed the push. My husband and I have very sticky family dynamics which gave me a lot of anxiety when it came to photos. But Maria was completely understanding and made that part of the day go off without a hitch. We can't thank Maria enough for all that she did for us over this past year or so. Her work speaks for itself - everything she shoots is absolutely gorgeous. The added benefit to all of the beautiful photos is the amazing, down-to-earth person you get to work with. We highly recommend Maria. You cannot go wrong with using her for your big day!

Hi! We're Jeremiah & Cody. We met working in a music store in 2009 and instantly became like brothers ("Did we just become best friends?" "YUP!"). In 2011, Jeremiah's wife volunteered him to shoot her sister's wedding and he genuinely enjoyed it. So, he began shooting weddings. In 2016, Cody graduated RIT with a Visual Arts degree and was looking for his next move. Luckily for all of us, Jeremiah talked Cody into relocating to the Hudson Valley to help him with his weddings. And here we are! The two of us get really excited to take really cool pictures.

Awarded Best of Zola
We met Jeremiah based off of a recommendation from someone who had not used him and was upset she didn’t. She had told us that her brother had used him and when she compared her photos to his she was sad she had not found him before her wedding. We met him with a lineup of photographers to meet after and we were not even out of the parking lot after meeting him before we decided to cancel all other appointments and book him right then and there. Jeremiah is the kindest soul we have ever encountered— he is genuinely funny, warm and he listens to everything you say.. and remembers it nearly a year later when you meet with him again before the big day! His personality alone makes him a 10/10 to work with and then you see your photos. He airdropped us five photos before the end of the reception and .. wow.. there is no other word but WOW. He sees the wedding in a way you do not.. he catches the REALNESS of the wedding. The love, the way you look at one another- it all just flows with him and Cody. It brings tears to my eyes writing this because he truly makes sure you get to see yourself the way everyone else does. Cody will go above and beyond (literally SCALING hills and climbing through bushes) to ensure you get shots from different perspectives. They both are awesome and I truly wish we could hang out with them on the regular.. that’s how down to earth and fun they are. Please if you’re reading this and deciding to reach out to him just DO IT! You will not be disappointed and his talent is endless. We adore you Jeremiah and Cody and are so thankful that you were part of our day. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for everything!

Edgar is the best! He was fun to be around and up for anything. He traveled hours to meet us and even went on a pretty buggy/muddy hike to capture the most incredible photos. We are both so awkward in front of a camera and he immediately made us comfortable - such an important skillset! We can't wait to see him again next June for our wedding, and have so much faith that he will hit it out of the park again!

Hey! I'm Jess, the owner of the company that's named after me - shocking, right? I'm from the suburbs of Philly but now live up in the mountains of Northeast PA in Montrose, right on the border of Central NY. I'm married to a woodworker (who HAD to be the inspiration behind Ron Swanson because they're the same human), we live on 25 acres with three huge dogs (2 Golden Retrievers and one Great Pyrenees) and three ducks - and I'm constantly begging for more animals. I'm outgoing, sarcastic & humorous, and I love organization/cleaning, sushi, reading, The Office, and traveling everywhere I can.

Jess is a master of her craft and we could not imagine having chosen anyone else to capture our wedding day. Working with Jess is like working with a close friend — she immediately made us feel comfortable in front of the camera, helping us pose (and making us laugh) for shots that truly blow our minds and fill our hearts. She expertly captured our individual personalities and dynamic as a couple, the vibrant color of our event, and the energy and happiness that filled the room. We are indescribably happy and grateful to have worked with such a talented, thoughtful, hilarious, and creative human to make the memories of our wedding day last forever in her incredible photographs.

Lindsay and Nathan are an incredible team. From booking them two years ago, doing our engagement session, and now having gotten sneak peaks back from our wedding that was just 2 days ago, I’m completely blown away by how incredible they have been! Lindsay is a complete pro. Group photos flew by because she was so great at directing and wrangling everyone. I had multiple people comment on how she was EVERYWHERE non-stop at our wedding, doing an amazing job the whole time! I just know she got every picture I wanted and more, and with how gorgeous our sneak peaks turned out I know I’ll absolutely love them! She and Nathan were so on top of everything, and made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera. Not only that, she truly went above and beyond helping to safety pin a rip in my dress. The day was a whirlwind but Lindsay and Nathan made it so easy! I would hire them a million times over!

I believe you should be present on your wedding day, not rushing through a timeline just to check boxes. That's why our goal is to provide our couples with a photography experience that allows you to be fully present so that you can truly have the time of your life celebrating with your people, laugh your way through pictures, and dance the night away with your best friends. In the end, your wedding images should be a direct reflection of the memories you made, not moments that were forced.

On the big day, Meghan brought a fantastic energy and kept everything running smoothly so my husband and I could truly be present. Her photography style resulted in gorgeous, natural, effortless photos that we will treasure forever. Meghan created a seamless timeline and helped our day flow from one special moment to the next. She guided us gently while allowing us to stay grounded in each special moment. The value of working with Meghan was fantastic - she brought out the best in us and captured it beautifully on film!

I’ve spent years refining an approach that allows me to sincerely honor the moment — knowing when to step in and adjust a subject or environment, and sensing when to stand back and allow a moment to just be. With me, your photographs will be an intentional representation of this time of your life — imagery that will make you feel like it was just yesterday, and yet, feel forever untouched by time. Truly, the honor is all mine. Thank you for considering me to document this luxuriously intimate wedding event.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about April and Mike. We, like so many others right now were a COVID couple, who were forced to postpone their wedding day several times. April and Mike hung in with us, from Dec 2019 Engagement Photos until FINALLY photographing our wedding on July 3, 2021. They are so easy and responsive with communication, and they work wonderfully together as a team. We have been so pleased with how well they captured our personalities, and the beauty of our wedding day. If you are looking for professional, easy-going photographers that will willingly go above and beyond for the perfect shot, look no further than April and Mike. Thank you so much, from the bottom of our hearts, for capturing our wedding so perfectly!

But we’re always excited to discover and capture the next amazing story.

As a mom, my daughter’s baptism was one of the most precious and joyful days of my life, and having Olya there to capture it was the best decision we made. From the moment she arrived, Olya felt like family. She was so warm and approachable, instantly putting us at ease, which made the entire day feel even more special. The photos Olya took are absolutely beautiful. She didn’t just capture the big moments of the ceremony, but all the little details that made the day unforgettable—the looks on our faces, the love in the room, and the happiness of our friends and family. Every time I look at the photos, I feel like I’m reliving that day all over again. Olya was incredible with my daughter. Baptisms can be a bit overwhelming, especially for little ones, but Olya was so patient and gentle. She made sure my daughter was comfortable, and the photos she captured are just filled with joy. I couldn’t have asked for anything more. The reception was such a fun celebration, and Olya managed to capture the energy and happiness perfectly! From the dancing to the laughter, every photo is bursting with life and love. I didn’t even notice her taking half the photos, but when I saw them, they felt so real and full of emotion. I can’t thank Olya enough for creating these beautiful memories that we’ll treasure forever. She captured the heart and soul of our day with such care, and I’m beyond grateful. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer who truly captures the love and joy of life’s special moments!

I've had a camera in my hands for as long as I can remember; I used it like a pocket journal of sorts and photographed constantly while growing up in Hawai'i. I fell into weddings when my dad remarried in 2013, and I remember being caught off guard by the swirl of emotions I felt standing at the edge of a new beginning. Turning those feelings into tangible memories was the only thing that made sense. I moved to New York City to refine my skillset and took a detour into the fashion industry before receiving my Bachelor's in photography from NYU.

Without a doubt, Natalie was the best 'purchase' of our wedding. We hummed and hawwed for months about whether or not to get a photographer - everyone has an iPhone right? They take pretty good shots. And a photographer makes up a significant portion of the budget. We were so very wrong on all counts. Every time I look through both our engagement shoot, and our wedding, I get teary. She has managed to capture the very essence of us, our emotions, our personalities and all of the special moments that made up the day. In the end we asked everyone to put away their phones and let Natalie and her amazing co-pilot husband Conor, do their work. Which they did beautifully. Natalie is an NYU trained photographer - her photographs are a mixture of fine art, portrait and breathtaking scenic shots. There's no WAY you can capture the heart of a day without a professional, and even some of those don't manage to get it right. Natalie does it all with a laugh, a smile, and an ability to make everyone feel at ease. Nearly every one of our guests commented on how much they liked our photographer - she made them feel at ease and was never intrusive or rude, like many photographers can be to guests. On this point, it was also important to us that we got shots of everyone having fun at the wedding - we didn't want to end up with 800 photos of just the two of us, like so many portfolio wedding albums we saw. Natalie and Conor made sure that they covered everything - we have photos of all of our loved ones enjoying themselves. We love it! Finally, in terms of support, Natalie is incredibly responsive, able to work to both a timeline and a direction, and her edits are speedy and beautiful. We made a life-long friend in Natalie and know that we will be hiring her again to capture all of life's most important moments. We cannot thank, or recommend her enough. Now, stop debating and get in touch with her! It'll be the best and easiest wedding decision you've made.

Hi, my name is Ryan, thanks for checking out my work! I am very passionate about photography and I am extremely fortunate to make a living doing it! I’ve held a camera in my hands almost all my life, but I’ve been a professional NJ wedding photographer since 2005. Getting married? I’d love to be a part of your day! After capturing hundreds of weddings in the NJ area, there are very few venues that I’m not familiar with, chances are I’ve been to yours multiple times! I’m also available for engagement shoots, portraits, head shots, and family photos.

Awarded Best of Zola
We absolutely loved working with Ryan. He was wonderful and he made us look amazing. He really knows photography and his love for the craft shows. We had an engagement shoot and our wedding photos with him. He is so much fun to work with. We were nervous for our engagement shoot and he showed us how to pose, how to stand, chose really great spots, and the hours just flew by. Then when we got the pictures back, we knew we made the right choice. I didn’t think I could look so beautiful. My husband loved his composition, creativity, and professionalism. For the wedding, Ryan was fun to work with, flexible, and made us both look like a prince and princess. We asked him to do 2 nerdy photos for us (sailor moon for the bride and bridesmaids and Green Lantern Core for the groom and groomsmen) and they turned out AMAZING. We’re now having trouble choosing which photos to frame because they all looked great. If you need an amazing wedding photographer with a fun, professional personality, and who will make sure you turn out great in every shot, and knows how to throw in a little extra something magical, go with Ryan. I hope we can work with him again.

Spend your day having fun, not posing for photos. My approach is to focus on capturing what's really happening, so you can focus on making memories and I can deliver effortless, natural looking photos.

I can’t recommend Jess enough! From the moment we booked her, she made everything so easy and relaxed. On the day of the wedding, she was a total pro—super attentive and really took the time to understand the vibe we were going for. She gave us just the right amount of direction to make sure we looked our best, but also let us be ourselves and enjoy the day. The photos came out absolutely stunning—she perfectly captured the emotions and all the little details we wanted. We couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. If you’re looking for someone who’s not only talented but also makes you feel totally comfortable, Jess is your person!

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.

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!

These ladies are so sweet, fun, and incredibly talented. Not only were they positive energy and good vibes during the girls' only getting ready process, they were such a joy to have around all day! Outside of a few standard portraits, and a couple ceremony specific shots, we gave them some general thoughts on the type of photography and images we liked, and they surpassed our expectations.

Richele was very easy to work with/flexible (plans for our wedding changed multiple times due to the pandemic), went the extra mile to ensure every special moment of our big day was captured, and the quality of her work is outstanding. When people look at the album she made, they are impressed and say they have never seen such amazing photos. We would highly recommend Richele to anyone!

We used Pepe for our Nov 2021 wedding. We are so glad we used him. Not only were photographs absolutely what we were looking for to capture our special day but he was a joy to work with. Everyone involved with the wedding commented on how genuinely nice he was. Pepe brought out the best in us and was able to capture that in our pictures. I highly recommend him!

I am a photographer and storyteller. For as long as I can remember, I have been fascinated by stories and traditions. I am passionate about documenting real human connections and I love learning all the meanings behind details at weddings and celebrations. When I’m not photographing, I can be found spending time with family and friends, exploring new places, and craving tacos. I love meeting new people, making new friends, and connecting with my clients. I can’t wait to get to know you, so let’s talk!

I fell in love with Beth's portfolio immediately after browsing through 30+ photographer's websites. Her style is very natural, romantic, and full of attention to details. She's always communicative throughout the process. On our wedding day she really made us feel at ease and our photos are so genuine and fun! We planned a fun entrance that didn't completely go according to plan, but Beth stayed calm and helped make it happen. Her quick turn-around also way exceeded our expectations. Thank you so much Beth!

French Rêveur, Film Lover. Bridging the gap between editorial and documentary photography using a minimalist/discreet approach. My typical couple is often camera shy and favors a candid/non posed approach for their wedding day.

Awarded Best of Zola
Fabrice is an artist of the finest caliber and he will deliver above and beyond your expectations. I cannot stress this to you enough: Book him immediately! Fabrice excels at both pieces of the wedding photographer's role: the experience of having him photograph the event, and the photos he delivers at the end. On your wedding day: He of course will follow your requested shoot list, portraits of family, and whatever else you want to prioritize for your wedding day. *But the real magic Fabrice delivers is that everyone forgets he is there.* Your family doesn't feel like they're being stalked by paparazzi or in a never ending staged photo shoot. I don't know how he does it, he didn't meet anyone in my family before our wedding, but every photo he delivered was an authentic reflection of that person and the moment. Nothing felt strained, staged, or uncomfortable for the subjects. Several of my family members, including my husband, don't love being photographed, and Fabrice was sensitive to that without losing anything important. He melts into the background and captures the smallest, lovely moments you didn't even know were happening. My favorite photo is our dads sitting on couches opposite each other by a doorframe while the wedding party was getting ready, which Fabrice noticed and shot without them even realizing. When he delivers the photos: The story of our wedding was told brilliantly in the first set of preview photos, which he delivered very quickly after the wedding, and even more so when we saw the full set of photos and the album. He's very responsive and delivered the shots exactly on the promised timeline. He weaves the narrative structure beautifully - the wedding album he delivered (after very politely waiting for a long time for me to mark my favorites) is truly a work of art. 10/10 recommend to a friend!

I had the pleasure of working with Cate on one of my recent weddings, and she is a joy to work with! Not only is Cate an incredibly talented photographer, but she also made the entire process of capturing the wedding day memories a breeze. She made my job as a wedding planner much easier by keeping everything on schedule and collaborating closely with the rest of the wedding team. Most importantly, Cate made the couple feel comfortable and at ease, adding humor into the day, allowing them to relax and enjoy the day, while getting incredibly authentic photos. The resulting photos were absolutely stunning and captured the essence of the couple's special day. It is so much fun to work with an artistic photographer, rather than a standard wedding photographer, because they see the day as an art piece, capturing little moments that others would let pass by. I would highly recommend Caterina to anyone in need of a talented and fun wedding photographer!

CLY BY MATTHEW has evolved at year 2004 from fashion, portrait and still life photography to the wonderful world of wedding photography, which incorporates all three genres. We follow a non-intrusive photojournalistic style for your weddings, which our clients (and their guests) very much appreciate. We concentrate not only on the big picture, but also we take pride in capturing the sincere fleeting moments that evoke the senses the very essence of photography.

Where do I start…I have so many things to praise about Matthew and his team at CLY by Matthew. The search for our photographer took forever, but once I found CLY and Matthew’s work, it was essentially an instantaneous decision. I left the intro meeting/conversation 100% sure we’d hire him. His and his team’s photography is beautiful, elegant, classic, and natural – and it was so easy to work with them from a fit and personality standpoint. I’ll admit, it’s a little awkward to pose for photography! But in the months leading up, and the day of, the wedding, Matthew and his team made us feel very comfortable in front of the camera. Matthew is one of the kindest people ever, and his calm demeanor made everything so pleasant and easy (especially with the frantic nature of wedding planning!) We are in LOVE with the photos we got back. We still can’t even believe it’s us, and our wedding, because the CLY team captured everything so amazingly. It’s surreal! We are so lucky to have found them and worked with Matthew. I’m hoping to find an excuse in the future to work with him again for professional photography. If you’re here and in the middle of researching photographers, stop reading and contact CLY immediately. You won’t regret it, I promise you.

I've been photographing weddings since 2010 and it's something that I feel incredibly fortunate to do. It really is remarkable to be able to combine my love for photography and storytelling in capturing the stories of so many wonderful couples in a genuine and authentic manner over the past 10 years. I currently reside in Brooklyn, New York with my wife, our daughter and our two cats. When I'm not photographing weddings you can find me exploring the streets of New York City with my camera, enjoying a good cup of coffee, visiting art galleries, and spending time outdoors.

Could not recommend James MORE to photograph your wedding. Not only is he an incredibly skilled photographer, he is kind and friendly and fantastic to work with! We have already recommended him to family and friends getting married in the coming years. I can’t wait to see the full album of our photos, because so far they are the most beautiful wedding photos I’ve ever seen. You won’t regret working with James!

And much to my family’s dismay, there isn’t a day that goes by that I don’t have my camera.

Romantic and candid with a hint of editorial flair is how I capture each moment of your day while letting your best version shine in every photo.

Tom Schelling is class, personified. Our experience with working with Tom and his fiancé Heather the day of our wedding was seamless and perfect! He is super creative, relaxed and flexible, as well as efficient and organized.. essentially he checks every single box you could ever want in your wedding photographer! My husband and I arrived separately to a predetermined location in Central Park by Tom for a genuine first look, followed by a breathtaking shoot at nearby locations in the park, and finally our ceremony at Dene Summerhouse. The entire experience leading up to our actual ceremony not only eased our own anxieties, but we had so much fun! He took the “pressure and work” off of us through his ability to gently and creatively guide us through our photos and make us laugh along the way. Tom is a visionary, and has an eye for originality, class, and romance. His photography embodies iconic NYC as well. Tom was extremely helpful in planning the timeline of our special day, in choosing the photo and ceremony locations, and in organizing the shot list for family photos. In conclusion, do not hesitate to choose Tom Schelling as your NYC Wedding Photographer or for your special event, it will be the best decision you have made! Thank you, Tom!
