Juliette Zyg Picture Studios 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,000
  • Serves Sterling, NY
  • Offer

Hello there!! I'm Juliette, and I've been wedding photographer and videographer for around seven years. I specialize in nostalgic and cinematic photo and video, and mix in-the-moment candids with editorial portraits (usually with flash photos!) Whether you’re having a wild wedding weekend, a thoughtful woodsy elopement or an elegant celebration at an estate, I'm here for it.

Awarded Best of Zola
From our very first call, I just knew Juliette was our photographer! She’s so down-to-earth and kind, and she immediately made us feel so comfortable—like we were working with an old friend. She’s insanely talented (seriously, her work speaks for itself), but it’s her warmth and energy that make her truly special. The second she and her husband showed up for our wedding weekend, we knew we made the right choice. They’re just such genuinely kind people, and everyone in our family and wedding party were impressed and loved them immediately (without even seeing a photo). Juliette wasn’t just our photographer—she became such an important part of the day. I honestly can’t imagine our wedding without them. To give you an idea of just how incredible Juliette is: my sister got engaged a month after our wedding hired Juliette immediately. My mom literally said, “We already love Juliette, why would you even look for anyone else?”. If that doesn’t say it all, I don’t know what does. We weren’t looking for a full wedding video, just something simple to capture our vows and speeches. Juliette put together a custom package that fit exactly what we wanted, and she still managed to go above and beyond. She just gets it, and somehow manages to exceed every expectation. What really sets Juliette apart is that she goes beyond simple wedding photography—she tells a story with her work. Sure, you can hire someone for 2-3k, but you will not get the high-quality, gorgeous, editorial photos that Juliette delivers (sorry!!!!). Her photos are next-level—every single shot feels thoughtful, stunning, and so full of life. Juliette is worth every single penny and then some. I cannot recommend her enough—she is such a gem, and I am honored that she captured my wedding.

Hey- I'm Nicole. When I'm not working with the raddest couples I'm typically brewery hopping with my wife, or home spending time with my three dogs. I live for SU basketball, and love just about any other Syracuse sports team (Crunch, Mets - count me in). I have been photographing weddings for over ten years, and in that time have had the opportunity to travel around the world and meet tons of new friends.

We couldn’t be more thrilled with the experience we had with Nicole. From the very first zoom call, she was warm, professional, and genuinely excited to capture our special day. On the wedding day, she was calm, organized, and made us feel completely at ease. Her attention to detail and ability to capture the most beautiful, candid moments were truly incredible. The photos are stunning—each one reflects the joy, love, and beauty of our celebration. We are so grateful to have had Nicole as part of our wedding, and we would recommend her to anyone looking for a talented, personable, and dedicated photographer. Thank you, Nicole!

I pride myself on being able to work with couples of all backgrounds and cultures. I am outgoing, energetic and have a true passion for documenting your day. Each wedding tells a unique story and it is my job to tell your story. I have been photographing weddings for over 6 years . Prior to that I worked weddings as a 2nd photographer and an assistant to several regional photographers. I felt that by working with several different companies I was able to gather experience from several perspectives. I shoot with the Nikon series of cameras and Lens. During the "off season" you can catch me photographing local High school sporting events.

Awarded Best of Zola
Cassie was a treasure to work with! She made me feel so comfortable! She makes you feel like you’ve been friends your entire life. I never like getting my photos done, and I thought about not getting any photos for my wedding, but I knew I might regret that decision later in life. She made me feel excited to be getting them done! She gave great recommendations and ideas for our photos and they turned out beautifully! My favorite picture was taken at night and the way she set up the cameras with the lighting - it was just gorgeous. Highly recommend her and her services!

Hey hey 👋, I’m LaDonna. Wedding photographer & videographer with a passion for celebrating the love stories of couples from all walks of life. Growing up in the suburbs of Boston and attending undergrad in Connecticut, I’m a true New England gal. Winter holds a special place in my heart, as I embrace the beauty and charm of every location I photograph. I’m always delighted to travel wherever your love story takes you—even an Aspen winter elopement. That would honestly make my heart smile! 😊 My mission: create timeless, heirloom-quality artwork that reflects the unique connection & individuality of each couple I have the honor to serve.

Awarded Best of Zola
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

Remember This Day Forever

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $3,800
  • Serves Sterling, NY

We see your wedding day as a collection of moments of pure potential that create a singular thread of energy, echoing through the universe, rippling outward and weaving new patterns of life and memory. There is a visual language that speaks to the values we share and the connections we nurture. We play with the presence and absence of light and movement, allowing each element to reveal and conceal, adding depth and mystery to every frame. We aim to craft images that carry the art of remembering, where every detail is preserved in light and shadow. This is wedding photography for those who seek the poetry present in every moment.

Whitney and Mike from Remember This Day Forever were the perfect photography and videography duo for our wedding. Their communication was always prompt, thoughtful, and kind. They were easy to reach during the wedding planning process and assisted us in creating the vision we hoped to capture in our photos and video. It’s important to keep in mind that you spend the majority of your wedding day with your photographers, and we were beyond grateful that we chose to spend our day with Whitney and Mike. Their calm yet professional energy was so comforting, and they helped us navigate any stressful moments with ease. The quality of their work is exceptional - from the angles, lighting, and editing style. Not to mention, they deliverer our sneak peek, complete photo album and completed video in a timely manner. They captured both big and small moments that truly reflected the joyous energy of our wedding day. Our wedding day flew by in what felt like an instant, and the only thing we have to look back on from that day are our photos and videos. We couldn’t be happier that they trusted Whitney and Mike with that huge responsibility. They have since photographed our maternity, newborn, and family photos over the years, and both have a way of making every occasion feel so special. We are so grateful to have worked with Remember This Day Forever and highly recommend them to any couple looking for talented, personable photographers and videographers.

The Story Photography

  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Sterling, NY

Wedding photography that matters is about the people and the feelings of the wedding day. It's not about the poses that I might imagine or the pretty details that surround the day. My passion is in finding the beauty in the REAL moments of a wedding day and preserving those to not only remind you of that love but to share it with generations to come.

There are no words to describe how incredible Chris is. He was calm, creative, and a pleasure to work with. Truly one of our favorite vendors. We were floored when we got our pictures back. He captured everything beautifully and we hardly knew he was there! At the end of the night he gave us the kindest words and smiles. Do not even think twice about contacting him - he is the real deal and will make the process easy.

Perfect, that is the only way to describe our wedding day with Forever Wild. The team, the locations, the time, and even the weather all came together to give us our dream wedding. Tom, Lexi, and Marc Anthony helped us put our elopement together in only 6 weeks! Their outstanding knowledge of the Adirondacks led us to the stunning mountain views of Cobble Lookout for our ceremony and the still, quiet waters of Cascade Lake. Tom and Lexi are outstanding photographers and really captured every moment of our day! With almost 200 pictures in our album, each one was better than the last. Marc Anthony, our officiant, is an absolute gentleman. He led our ceremony with positive, heartwarming thoughts that helped remind us why my wife and I chose to tie the knot. From helping us bring all of our wedding gear up the mountain, to even helping us change when we reached our location, they made every part of our day easy and carefree.

I photograph wedding and lifestyle sessions that are genuine and natural. The moments caught in time that represent you. I love working with clients to create the perfect outfits, timeline, and plan so they can be fully present. Enjoying every candid moment, effortlessly. I really love people. Maybe it's the way God made me or that my grandma Irene worked tirelessly to make sure every single person she came in contact with felt known and loved. I have a passion for making you feel beautiful and ready to take on the world. Your story is worth capturing.

Emily is not only an amazing photographer, but also an amazing person! From our engagement session to detail meetings to our wedding day, working with Emily was a dream. She is so sweet, organized and fun to be around. We typically aren't "picture people", but Emily made us and our family/friends feel so comfortable. At one point, Emily stopped eating her dinner (and essentially her only "break" of the day) to run across the lobby to capture me holding my recently-born niece. Beyond just being an amazing person, she is so talented. Our photographs of both our engagement session and wedding are absolutely stunning and timeless and everything we could have hoped for. She does an amazing job capturing everything from the details to the big moments.... and there are so. many. pictures that she gets back to you so quickly. We cannot recommend her enough and would choose her over and over again!

Elopement & Wedding photographer in the beautiful Upstate NY. We love sophisticated, stylish and romantic vibes, as well as rustic and adventureful days. We travel throughout the northeast and the mountain ranges of the ADK. In addition to capturing the traditional wedding photos, luxury high-end wedding photography services often include a range of extra features, such as engagement photo shoots, bridal portraits, boudior and even aerial drone photography. These services can help to create a truly unique and personalized experience that will be treasured for a lifetime.

Amanda from Golden Heart Studios was the photographer for our wedding in August, 2023. Before the wedding day we discussed the schedule and the look we were going for in our photos and Amanda went above and beyond to give us what we were looking for. She was great with directing us, the wedding party, and family to pose for photos and really thought through where she would be at different parts of the ceremony to make sure that she got beautiful shots. She was especially good at getting the little kids to look at the camera. The editing of the photos was also exactly what we were looking for. My only regrets are that I didn't schedule more time and that I didn't have a more detailed schedule for my family when it came to photos. On the wedding day itself, it was a bit like herding cats. But Amanda was very helpful, cooperative, and creative and made it work anyway! The pictures looked great and she really captured the atmosphere of the ceremony and reception!

  • Serves Sterling, NY

I am just a bubbly extrovert with a serious love for love & ice cream. Growing up, my dream job was to become a wedding planner. The wedding scene fascinated me! Thankfully, my lack of organizational skills shifted me away from that and directed me towards photography instead. Photographing a wedding day is one of my greatest joys, and I truly believe it's what I was made to do. I'm here to hold your hand when you're nervous, pin boutonnieres when no one else knows how, and to give you images that are timeless, romantic, authentic.

Lauren Victoria Photography was an absolute joy to work with on our wedding day. From the moment we first reached out, they were incredibly friendly, responsive, and made us feel like their top priority. Their communication throughout the planning process and on the day of the wedding was seamless. The final photos they delivered were nothing short of incredible - their creativity and artistic eye shone through in every shot, perfectly capturing the genuine emotions and effortless moments of our special day. We were thrilled to receive our full gallery in a very timely manner, allowing us to relive the magic of our wedding day. We cannot recommend Lauren Victoria Photography highly enough for any couple looking for a talented, professional, and personable photography team to help document their big day.

All couples of all genders, ethnicities, ages, faiths, shapes and abilities, are more than welcome.

Awarded Best of Zola
I couldn’t be happier with my experience working with Ali! She reached out to me on Zola and I am so glad she did. I was impressed with her portfolio and I really loved seeing how she would capture little moments in the weddings she had done. We set up a video call before booking and we clicked. She is very calm and helped with my pre-wedding nerves. She worked with us on a payment plan and she was always very quick to respond to any of my questions. She really listened to what we wanted. She got to the venue early to scout out different shots and came to check in with me a couple of times before we even began taking photos, which I did not expect but was very sweet and considerate of her. When we were taking photos, she really helped to guide the more “posed” photos but she also captured a lot of beautiful candid moments. We had so many guests come up to us and compliment her and that was before we even got the photos back. She sent us our sneak peeks the next day and I couldn’t be more thrilled with the results. She captured so many beautiful moments and her style is exactly what we wanted. Nothing felt “overly edited” just perfectly genuine. I cannot recommend Ali enough. I cannot wait to see the full gallery of photos because I know they will be nothing short of perfect.

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Isaac’s photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking.

From helicopter elopements and lakeside wedding bashes to hiking engagements to weddings with bouncy houses, I capture the adventurous, quirky, and unique. Based in both New York + California, with travel worldwide, I've photographed couples on 6 continents. My creative, fun, & candid photography uses innovative techniques and unique ideas to get photos that make you look twice. Whether you're saying vows in your backyard or having a 3-day adventure wedding in the rainforest, I'll catch every spontaneous moment of joy and laughter—and plan a few unique shots on top of it all.

We were so lucky to have found Kathryn for our wedding. As a photographer, Kathryn is an artist. She has incredible talent, creative ideas, and delivers stunning results. As a person, Kathryn is simply a joy. She is warm, easygoing, and fun. She made the process so easy from start to finish and we actually miss getting to chat with her! We are a same-sex, interfaith couple, and came to the table with family drama, a crazy dog, and a mashing of cultures. Kathryn didn't bat an eyelash. She has a true inclusive spirit, and that continues to mean a lot to us. If you want to be able to relive your special day with profound joy for years to come, just choose Kathryn! We so hope for our paths to cross again someday and we look forward to recommending Kathryn to anyone who will listen. We wish her nothing but the success that she deserves.

Hullo! So you're gettin' hitched (YaaY!), but you’re not super into the idea of the overly-manicured wedding. A+ for you, because this is not your parents’ wedding photography. I'm a farm kid who floats between the journalism and art worlds. I love telling stories as much as I love listening to the stories of others. I’m the type of person who makes up musicals for my own amusement and nurses a soft spot for sci-fi and fantasy. If I’m not taking photos, I’m usually dancing. Or cooking. It’s possible I may have a baking addiction and try to mitigate the damage by forcing the goods on loved ones.

Celia at The Lovely Lens was an absolute GEM!! Our wedding was not the typical / traditional ceremony-- on purpose! Leading up to the big day, Celia kept lines of communication open (so helpful for planning) and was 1000% supportive of our special day being so...well, special! She was such a total champ while capturing every moment in the pouring rain. She was fully prepared for the weather & didn't miss one beat! My partner and I instantly felt at ease and loved our time together with her. She encouraged us to be our authentically goofy selves! Her presence was so warm, her energy was delightful, and her work was STUNNING! Seriously, I'm obsessed with the photos! Not only do we have incredible images from this amazing day, but we also have wonderful memories with Celia. She was so friendly and kind us as well as to our family and friends, and immediately jumped on board with our 'potluck bbq at Grandma's house' vibe. By the end of the day she felt like part of the family as we chatted about our furkids and exchanged on where to order some cute socks with their faces on them, haha. If you're looking for an absolute powerhouse of an artist to capture your day in the way that doesn't feel awkward or intrusive, or if you're looking for a photographer with genuinely good vibes and authentic energy, or if you're looking for someone to simply help tell your love story through stunning imagery-- please consider The Lovely Lens of Celia for your special day. 3

Barry is a rare Gem. Photography is a huge deal for our family as my husband and I are very passionate about it. I lack the profound words to describe Barry’s work. He is reasonable, experienced and his end results do all the talking for him. His images captured everything that many use editing gadgets to portray. A simple black and white portrait makes you feel what a thousand colors may struggle to. Barry thank you so much for the amazing work you do.

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.

There is nothing I love more than photographing weddings - a day full of raw emotion and I get to document and make art of out it! I'm a newlywed so I totally get what you're going through! We recently adulted hard and bought a house - next up is a dog! Please tag me in all funny dog videos :) I love occasionally working out, always eating cookies, and watching nonstop romantic comedies - especially while I edit (let's not talk about how many times I've seen Dirty Dancing). Can't wait to meet you!

Michelle and Allison (her 2nd shooter) were absolutely phenomenal! We were so excited to get our photos back -they were stunning and exceeded by expectations. Michelle is a breeze to work with, and a true professional. She was able to help us navigate everything from various terrain, to family dynamics, all while calming my nerves. Several of my bridesmaids who had been in other weddings/recently married remarked that they had wished their photographer was as organized yet calm and directive as her. She wrangled a big bridal party quickly and made sure we had amazing shots. We had such a blast with her during our engagement shoot (which I highly recommend doing!) as it gave us a feel for her fun personality (along with her dad jokes) as well as how she shoots, which helped me figure out poses I liked/didn’t since I am very self conscious. We loved that she tries to take photos that reflect “in the moment joy,” rather than just a ton of posed photos (though don’t worry, she will take plenty of beautiful portraits too). She really understood the importance of capturing the spirit of the day and we are so excited our photos!!
