We had an intimate wedding in our townhouse with only close friends and family, and I can’t express how grateful we are for our photographer! She was absolutely amazing with every little detail, capturing the essence of our special day perfectly. Her attention to the small moments and her guidance with posing made us feel so comfortable, even in such a close-knit setting. The photos turned out stunning, and she beautifully brought our vision to life. If you're looking for a photographer who truly cares and will go above and beyond, I highly recommend her!

My name is Stephanie. Myself and my Husband Steve are Fireside Sparrow Photography. We lead with intention to create a gallery that is artfully authentic to your day because your wedding is unique and should reflect who you are. We do NOT offer video. We are boutique photographers that are for the clients and couples that value photography but also value being present in their day. Your wedding is not a day of photos, we come to take photos of your day. Every package is custom to each client as your experience with us is exclusive to you.

Awarded Best of Zola
I am typically a Type B person in my life, but when it came to our wedding day, I wanted everything to be exactly how I wanted it. This included researching quite literally hundreds of photographers. As a super DIY wedding, I wanted to be able to look back on our photos and be able to relive it without it feeling overly filtered or untrue to how it was in real life. When we came across Fireside Sparrow, not only did the style of photography stand out to us as authentic, but you could just feel that Stephanie was authentic as well. She and Steve fit our vibe perfectly leading up to and the day of our wedding. Her attention to detail and ability to be professional but also feel like your number one fan made our wedding day run so smoothly. They’re now a part of our story forever. I highly recommend Fireside Sparrow Photography!!!

On the wedding day itself, Britt literally coordinated all of our vendors and kept everything running smoothly and on time, making it feel effortless for us.

Just like you, I have felt awkward in front of the camera. I’ve had photos taken of me that I didn’t like. When you go on a session with me, I will not only make you feel comfortable, but I will make sure you look good! I will give you prompts to keep you moving and laughing. I’m sorry but there are some angles, and poses that are not flattering for everyone. Like, please don’t take a photo of me from below! Hello double chin! What I’m saying is, I got you!

Lacie was absolutely phenomenal to work with throughout the entire wedding planning process. From the moment we jumped on a phone call to see if they were a right fit, I knew they would be. Her enthusiasm, understanding, outgoing way that she relates to people is an energy that you want on your big day. Our engagement session was incredible, she moves so quickly but efficiently, as to ensure you get all the shots you want, but is very mindful of time. Our wedding day was COMPLETE because of Lacie. In addition to her positive attitude, she helped smooth the timeline of events during the day when exterior factors were impacting the photography, and problem solved so wonderfully on the spot. She stepped in to help in moments that were above and beyond what we hired her for, and for that I am truly grateful. Her photography style is versatile and beautiful, specifically catered to your preference. I can't imagine a better photographer for our wedding and we are so grateful!

When searching for a photographer, I was overwhelmed by the number of options available. Dominique didn’t make me feel pressured. She provided us with her wedding guide, which gave us insight into who she is. When we met remotely, I instantly knew she was the one. She was enthusiastic, listened attentively, and asked us questions about what is important to us leading up to the wedding and beyond. She was great to work with, and I knew what to expect. She drafted our timeline, offered recommendations, and helped us design it based on what was important to my husband and me. She curated a family shot list, and let me tell you, she did not disappoint. Her and her team were amazing.

It's hard to pick favorites but if your wedding includes a dog in the bridal party, a dress with pockets and the cupid shuffle....COUNT ME IN! Among my never-ending list of dream sessions is of course a wedding at Disneyworld and the ultimate outdoorsy engagement session with the wild horses at Shackleford Banks. Don't be surprised when I ask you to add me to your pinterest boards so I can fangirl over your wedding plans.

I seriously can’t put into words how amazing she was and cannot recommend her enough. She was great to have around on our wedding day and I am so happy with our photos. The groomsmen didn't have their act together, even though she provides a detailed schedule, and she was totally chill about it and was like no biggie I'll be back in 30. My fiancé commented on how awesome she was (didn't comment on any other vendors) and one of his groomsmen did too (see first pic). This was before we even saw the pics and they turned out better than I could have imagined. At one point I told her I was done taking pics I wanted to go talked to people and dance, so was a little worried if we got enough shots, but was blown away with the results. I also told her I didn't care that much about getting ready pics but wanted a lot of guest candids and she delivered. She also got way more getting ready pics than I even expected. We didn't want to spend money on a second photographer and she was fine with that and got all the pics we wanted on her own. She truly listened to what we wanted and was incredible at communication and organization. On top of that, she is one of the sweetest people I’ve ever met, and truly a calming presence during all of the chaos on wedding day. I feel sooo lucky we found her.

Felisha is hands down the BEST photographer I have worked with. Throughout the planning process she was incredibly organized, thoughtful about my vision, and also so accommodating to our work schedules when it came to communicating/planning. She was willing to travel all the way to NYC for our engagement shoot (a shoot I HIGHLY recommend before the big day to get to know Felisha and get comfy in from of the camera) and really made my husband and I feel at ease. We are not super natural in front of a camera and she helped us relax and the photos turned out great :) On the day of our wedding, she was so professional and kept us on track and getting great pictures all day long - my bridesmaids were raving about how organized and top of everything she was. I didn't have to stress at all about making sure we got all the shots we wanted, and we are SO thrilled with how everything turned out. We just received our photo album and we really can't stop looking at it. The pictures captured the magic of the day perfectly, and we're so grateful we found Felisha to give us these special photo memories!

I'm originally from East Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania but I've lived all over the country and have finally landed in Carroll Gardens, Brooklyn. My personal hobbies include rock climbing, learning French, fine-tuning my espresso skills, and drinking the best wine I can get my hands on (yes, if you're getting married at a winery, I'm interested!). I've been photographing weddings since 2009 (that's 15 years!) and I'm still not even the least bit bored. Hell, I still cry at weddings on a regular basis. Staying emotional and in the moment is what allows me to capture the moments that matter most to my couples.

Choosing Rima as our wedding photographer was one of the easiest and best decisions we made. She is exceptionally professional and proficient, while still being kind and calming. She knows exactly how to get shots that work, without making you feel like you're posing uncomfortably or being micromanaged. For both our engagement session and our wedding day, it felt like Rima was able to capture a perfect mix of "candids" where she just lets you play around and do what is natural, and posed photos. Also, on our wedding day both her and Fernando were such calming presences that we felt at ease, were able to laugh, and we knew we wouldn't be overwhelmed having the focus on us all day. She was also ridiculously prompt when communicating and delivered our photos so quickly!! We cannot recommend her enough!

I’m typically shy and not very photogenic, so I was extremely anxious about how our wedding photos would turn out. But after finding LaDonna through a Facebook ad, I immediately knew I wouldn’t have to worry if she was our photographer. She took the time to understand me and helped me find my confidence in front of the camera. By the wedding day, I felt completely at ease and able to focus on the moment with my husband rather than my insecurities in my head. LaDonna and the LT² team captured everything beautifully, balancing candid moments with fine art shots that truly tell our story. The photos are so authentic, and I’ll cherish these memories forever, along with the confidence I gained. Thank you, LaDonna, for an unforgettable experience! 3 7.27.24

Jenni with J Maurer Photography was a dream to work with for our wedding photography. Her communication throughout the planning process was consistently kind, fast, and professional, which we really appreciated during a hectic wedding season. On our big day, Jenni rolled with the punches when bad weather forced us to change plans last minute. She kept us calm with her reassuring demeanor, all while snapping gorgeous photos that she delivered many of the very next day. We were thrilled to relive moments from our wedding as soon as possible thanks to Jenni's quick turnaround. Overall, Jenni is a consummate professional who clearly loves capturing special moments with her lens. Her beautiful, adaptive work shined through despite the weather challenges. We'd enthusiastically recommend J Maurer Photography for any couple seeking stunning, timely wedding photos.

I worked with Melissa and her team on an April 2023 wedding in New Jersey (which I was planning/coordinating). From the moment we were introduced to one another, Melissa was extra communicative, kind and patient. She made sure to be attentive to my couple's desires and weighed in with her opinion too. It allowed the couple and the rest of the vendors to feel at ease when the day of arrived. Melissa and her team are fun to work with and I can't wait to work with her again!!!

Two Upper West Siders. Twenty blocks apart. How had we not crossed paths before? Or did we? Well, after finally matching on Hinge we made that happen and the rest is history! We have combined families and now as a family of 7 (three dogs, two cats) we have become an unstoppable force. We both share the same passion for photography, capturing the beauty all around us and making magic happen. Our dog Lucy, embodies love, kindness and poise. We couldn’t imagine naming our business after anyone but her. That’s how Love, Lucy Photography came to be.

Bethany and Raquel are a phenomenal photographer team and we loved working with them for our wedding. They were easy to work with both in preparation for the big day, and on the day itself. They have a special eye that captures moments perfectly, and ties them together to make you feel like you’re watching the day on film (yet it’s all ‘still’ photos). They are artists and masters of their craft. I’m honored and grateful we had the chance to work with both of them. In addition to all of the above, they delivered our photos in a very fast amount of time. We really appreciated that. We opted to purchase an album from them which was an investment we would make over and over again. While they let us help with the design, they truly know best. In my opinion you do not need a videographer if you invest in the right photographer. Bethany and Raquel are THOSE photographers.

My love for art and photography began 10 years ago. That's when I bought my first camera. It was love at first sight! My job is way more than just to create beautiful imagery. It is to help you have fun and feel like a rockstar in front of the camera!

I cannot recommend Hedi Field Photography enough and would give 100 stars if I could! If you are considering hiring her for your engagement, rehearsal dinner, or wedding please look no further. We used her for all three and could not be happier - not only did we end up with the most incredible photos that we will cherish forever, but we gained such beautiful, fun, memories working with her that will always hold a special place in our hearts. Hedi is extremely talented at capturing your love and bond with ease, and she has such a warm, kind, and infectious energy that makes you feel comfortable from your first picture with her. As a reference - we had worked with another photographer before that did not have this touch, and the photos came out very stoic and awkward as a result. Over 1000 photos from Hedi later and not one awkward one - each one was so full of life and beauty that it instantly transports you back to the moment and makes you smile! Hedi even made sure movement and life shined through the photos of the scenery and the little details that couples work so hard on, nothing went unnoticed! From our very first meeting, Hedi was incredibly organized, meticulously detail- oriented, and thoughtful. She took the time to understand our vision, ensuring that every moment we wanted to capture was prioritized, in every location, and in every outfit. She created timelines and shoot locations to coordinate with the lighting, time of day, and ease of transition to make the process less about logistics for us and more about fun! Hedi went above and beyond during our engagement session and rehearsal dinner, ensuring we got every shot (for the engagement this consisted of 4 outfits and 3 shooting locations later, and for the rehearsal it meant being extra flexible to the large family demands with a high guest count that all wanted pictures ). Hedi has a warm and approachable demeanor, but she knows how to maintain authority amongst what can be crazy family dynamics, keep on track, and expertly adhere to deadlines, ensuring everything ran smoothly, which was especially important and crucial on our wedding day. Beyond her incredible photography talent, Hedi helped take on extra responsibilities that eased the burden on our bridal party, family, and planner. Everyone at our event loved her personality, enthusiasm, and complimented her amazing work ethic and professionalism. Hedi did absolutely everything in her power to make our day as special as possible, and we are so honored and grateful to have had her as our photographer. After the wedding, Hedi delivered sneak peals on just a couple of days, and our full gallery within 2 months. She even went outside the scope of the contract and checked in with me on editing and preferences (she has the most incredible light and airy editing style that makes every pho look like the cover of Vogue) to make sure everything was perfect. We love you Hedi and cannot thank you or recommended you enough!

I reside in Jersey City, New Jersey, serving New Jersey, New York, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, and beyond. I grew up surrounded by family photos. My parents had a professional photography business, Infinity Photography, back in the days of film. My friend asked me to do her senior portraits, so I started my photography business after my parent's business was closed for nearly 20 years. Fun fact, I chose "Grey" because I'm a nerd, and I love Jean Grey - she's my fave X-men. Also, my name is hard to spell, especially when you hear it. It's like "Leah" with a "Tuh."

Taliya gave us the absolute best wedding photography experience. She was extremely professional and quick to answer any questions at any point along the way. She made sure every detail was arranged before hand so there were 0 surprises along the way and day of. Not to mention that the photos turned out phenomenal. She was great at posing and framing to get the best shots and made sure that everything got pictured and captured from our special day. Would recommend 100%

I fell in love with photography about 10 years ago, always liked capturing special moments in a tangible frame. Now this is what I do for living and couldn't be happier. I get to give people photos that they will cherish forever and look back at and share with their friends and families. That to me is rewarding and I'm grateful I get to do that everyday. I specialize in candids like weddings, events, corporate, parties, but I also do really well with portraits.

It's not every day you get all dressed up, and spend hours having someone follow you around with a camera. At least, not for most people! I am there to guide you every step of the way! Whether it is a family photoshoot or your wedding day, we will laugh, have fun, and create beautiful memories that will be captured for you to look back on!

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring Siobhan to shoot our engagement pictures and wedding was hands down the best decision we made. Siobhan is efficient, organized, friendly, and knows how to ease nerves and help you truly enjoy your day. After our initial call, I felt like I had known her for years, and knew she was the absolute best person to bring our wedding vision to life. And she without a doubt knocked it out of the park! The engagement shoot allowed us to get to know one another, her working style, and she made it fun! She posed us in a way that made us feel so comfortable, and each image turned out incredible. Doing this shoot before our wedding only further eased our nerves on the big day! On wedding day, she had Heather as her co-shooter, and both were a joy to work with. Siobhan came to the girls suite and immediately went to work, keeping us on time and really capturing the fun morning we were having. Once we got to the venue, we were on a pretty tight schedule, but you'd never know with how Siobhan and Heather were keeping things on track. We were able to get all of our family, wedding party, and portrait shots done early, so we could enjoy our full cocktail hour and evening. She didn't miss a beat and was there to capture any random pictures we wanted her to, as well as alllll of the candids to truly capture the love and fun of the evening. We received a TON of sneak peeks literally the next day, and every single one of them was incredible. She isn't just your photographer that day - she will be your friend too, ensuring you look and feel your best. If you are considering her for your wedding, it will be the best decision you will make!

We are beyond thrilled with how they turned out and how they feel like we felt on our wedding day. I will say, though, that we and our families all agreed that even if the photos didn’t turn out as we hoped, we would still be happy because of how great they were to work with. They made even the more camera-shy among us feel comfortable, never distracted from the important parts of our day, and were flexible and lovely to be around.
