Marilyn Lamanna Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $6,000
  • Serves Rockaway Beach, NY

Hey there! My name is Marilyn. I live in New York City with my sweet partner, and our orange cat Maple. I’m an introverted, soft-hearted mush with an insatiable need to document the beauty in life. Practicing self-portraits in middle school eventually led me to pursue my photography degree from New York University, and I have been joyfully creating photos of wedding days ever since. To me, weddings are a magical display of the human spirit. It’s my biggest honor and joy to create imagery that captures that human magic - especially in a way that breaks the boundaries of historically gendered traditions.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Marilyn was such a treat. She’s so warm, and communicating with her is a breeze. Both my husband and I were more interested in capturing the moments of our wedding day rather than spending loads of time on staged family portraits. Marilyn and her assistant Emma were great at getting the shots your grandparents will want while also capturing the essence of your night. She asked great questions, made sure we felt comfortable at every turn, and fully captured the essence of my (camera-shy) husband. Don’t hesitate to work with her!!

When I came across Rebecca's website and portfolio I was immediately smitten. Her style was so beautiful and unique, and exactly what I was hoping to find for our wedding. One quick call with her and I knew she was our photographer. She was so warm and welcoming and we felt completely ourselves around her. We had FUN spending time with her for both our engagement and wedding photos. Aside from her amazing skills - she went ABOVE AND BEYOND to coordinate our engagement photos with us when we were living in California. She was the easiest choice we made and we love every photo she took for us. Cannot recommend her highly enough! - Chelsean Nick

A New York native, she grew up on Long Island for many years where she received her BFA in Visual Arts from SUNY Old Westbury and now - if she's not traveling - you can find her enjoying a new coffee shop or re-watching The Office!

Awarded Best of Zola
It is difficult not to write this review entirely in all glowing all caps because Thalia's artistry truly gave us a gift of a lifetime. Thalia is an absolutely lovely person and a PHENOMENAL photographer. We could not love our wedding (and engagement) photos more! My husband and I could tell from our first introductory meeting that Thalia's energy, enthusiasm, and professionalism were precisely what we were looking for, but boy oh boy, did her pictures exceed these expectations. We wanted both editorial and documentary style shots, and we received a perfect blend of both. Thalia knows how and when to provide styling guidance as well as when to hang back in order to snap up all the organic moments too. So grateful that the best day of our life was captured with such care. Thank you, Thalia!!

His versatility ensures that he can accommodate people from all walks of life.

Awarded Best of Zola
Dj Sparkx Entertainment was an incredible experience from start to finish. From our initial contact to the post-wedding follow-up, he was consistently professional and attentive. Our wedding took place in December 2024, just a few days after Christmas—a timing that had both its challenges and blessings. Despite the busy holiday season, Dj Sparkx took the time to thoroughly go over all our preferences and ensure everything was perfectly planned for our big day. On the wedding day, he exceeded all our expectations. Our guests are still raving about how engaging he was and how skillfully he played music that resonated with both sides of our family. Dj Sparkx masterfully balanced the Caribbean spice with the classic American hits, making the event enjoyable for everyone. He is versatile and does his research for any cultural background! He also made it a point to ensure that my husband and I had time on the dance floor and enjoyed ourselves. What stood out the most was how collaborative he was throughout the process. He listened to our ideas, shared his expert opinions, and every suggestion he made elevated our wedding to another level. Trusting a vendor with one of the most important days of your life can be daunting, but my advice is simple: trust Dj Sparkx! The photobooth was also a fantastic addition. Dj Sparkx added a special touch by surprising us with a photo album filled with messages from our guests—a keepsake we’ll treasure forever. We couldn’t be happier with our decision to work with Dj Sparkx. He is professional, cost-efficient, and, most importantly, an absolute joy to work with. Highly recommended!

With an unwavering commitment to transforming dreams into exquisite realities, our distinguished team, led by industry visionary Lauren Luberger, boasts over two decades of collective expertise in orchestrating flawless celebrations.

Awarded Best of Zola
Let me start by saying my wedding was a tall order! I wanted a wedding that was gothic, elegant, Victorian-inspired, dark, and moody. We were going for gothic without it being “scare grandma” gothic! And to make it a step harder, our wedding was in a very modern looking building in Manhattan. And to make it even one step harder, my husband and I are based in Ireland. Lauren completely understood my vision and designed the most beautiful wedding I have ever seen. We had so many friends and family approach us about how beautiful the decor was, and even multiple members of staff and various vendors saying they have never seen the venue look so amazing. Her attention to detail is beyond phenomenal and everything is done with such thoughtfulness and due diligence. Lauren was so organised throughout the entire wedding planning process. She helped us look for the best vendors, she went to view different tablecloth landscapes and furniture when we couldn’t (again, we live abroad!) and kept me up to date every step of the way without bombarding us so we could continue to regulate life outside of wedding planning. I have recommended Lauren multiple times to newly engaged friends, and will continue to recommend City and Terrace in the future! You truly cannot get a better wedding planner who listens to the couples’ wants and needs, understands, and most importantly keeps you calm and organised through the chaotic planning process! Her attention to detail is phenomenal. I highly recommend.

Working with Greta for our February 2025 wedding was a dream come true. From the moment we met with her (and even before we signed a contract with her) she was incredibly supportive and helpful. If you want someone who is going to take care of every detail before you can even think to ask about them, she's your girl. From our first call, my husband and I knew we would be working with her. She has such a calming demeanor but she's also incredibly resourceful and uses her knowledge and abilities to the max. Having no family in the area, I really had to lean on her for a lot more than I thought I might, especially when I was having issues with my wedding dress. She even came with me to pick it up the first time!! Greta has so many connections and really knows her stuff when it comes to weddings. She'll be real with you about what's possible within your budget and she really helped us stay within ours - she has a great system that she provides you access to. I could go on and on about how amazing she is. I'm just sad that our wedding is now over and we won't have a reason to connect! We love you Greta!!!!

My wedding was this past weekend, and I still want to shout Amanda's praises from every rooftop! Hire her now! We had a complex wedding design: a full three-night, four-day weekend with several different spaces and layouts involved, and different guest lists for each day. Amanda handled everything masterfully. Every detail was exactly as we imagined (and more!), and she was a true joy to work with. My mother and I have different working styles and visions, and somehow Amanda found a way to meet both of our needs at each turn and help us avoid any conflict with one another. Amanda is highly detail-oriented and has a way of handling so many things "behind the scenes" and well in advance of the wedding - including crafting much of the decor and guest gifts weeks in advance, then personally transporting them to the wedding. It was efforts like this that really set her apart from other planners -- measurably reducing our stress each moment and taking things off our very full plates. We will genuinely miss speaking and working with Amanda. Our only regret was not hiring her sooner - she joined us after we had personally booked our venue and a handful of vendors, but having her with us earlier would have only enhanced our planning process.

We aim to work alongside clients to bring an unexpected mix of on trend designs and elegant classic styles. Whether it be an intimate gathering after City Hall or the event of the season, we can't wait to design something special and tailored to you!

I don’t know what magic Fern Botanica puts into their flowers, but they delivered the most impressive array of bouquets I’d ever seen in my whole life. We ordered bouquets a la carte from them (two bridal and 16 bridesmaids!), and gave them a color palette and inspiration image to work from—and I cannot even believe how stunning the result was. Our budget was limited, so we reused the bouquets as centerpieces for the tables, and Fernies also helped us figure out the best size vases, so we could transition them easily. Also, we were gifted flower preservation, and the artist immediately asked who our florist was because she was so impressed by the flowers. That’s how you know it’s good. I will absolutely be using them again for everything from causal arrangements to special events. The team there has such an incredible eye and style, they did all the heavy lifting, and we got to enjoy the rewards of people complimenting our beautiful flowers. Win/win.

Welcome to Velvet Valley Cakes, where vintage charm meets modern flair. Inspired by the timeless techniques of classic cake decorating books, I bring a bygone era's elegance to life with intricate, handcrafted buttercream designs. My diverse upbringing in Queens, NY, has infused my creations with a unique fusion of flavors, reflecting the eclectic culinary landscape of my childhood. From traditional to unexpected, my cakes blend nostalgia with innovation, making every wedding celebration a sweet masterpiece.

I had been following Velvet Valley Cakes on Instagram long before I was engaged and knew I was going to hire them to make my wedding cake when the time came. Soon after the proposal, my fiance and I ordered her sampler and were blown away by how delicious the cake flavors were. We could not decide between two specific flavors so Blair let us pick one flavor for our main wedding cake and the other for the supplementary sheet cakes. Our guests loved having options and both flavors. Style and aesthetic were the first things that piqued my interest in hiring Velvet Valley Cakes and I was excited to have a vintage style cake and even more excited when Blair used elements from my parents’ wedding cake as inspiration. We are very happy with our decision and can’t wait to have another reason to order a cake from her!

Hi I'm Corey In a well tailored suit and a scotch in hand is how you may find me; enjoying a good read, it's the makings of a wanderlust at heart. My true pastime is in the small imprints we make in the world around us; our connections with the people we love. Being a photographer reminds me of a simple truth, these imprints in time these echoes and moments, this is living! Your Love Story is nothing short of Amazing. Let's not miss a thing!

Corey is an excellent photographer, he has worked with my and my team a few times now and he is one of the top 3 people I like to call for my weddings. I can send Corey with a task and know he will do the best job. He is so kind and makes all my clients feel comfortable around him. He asks awesome questions and game plan items that help me navigate the wedding day easily. And above all his work is wonderful. I would recommend Corey to any client or vendors looking for some support.

We couldn’t have asked for a better wedding photographer than Ryan. He was prompt and extremely easy to work with. He made taking the wedding photos fun and we got compliments from many of our guests about how personable and talented Ryan was throughout the whole event. You could tell he really knew his stuff and he directed us and our guests around with ease to get the perfect shots. Also we had access to the photos very shortly after the wedding which was great. 10/10 experience. Thanks Ryan!
