We’re Hudson Valley wedding photographers that want to see you at your happiest. Every love story is unique, and we want to make sure yours is captured naturally and exactly as you want to remember it. Let us make your wedding photography experience comfortable, relaxed and beautiful.

Megan and Kenneth have been our go-to photographers for many moments of our relationship -- because they're so good that we keep coming back!!! Years before we got married, they photographed us in a staged shoot and made such an impression that we hired them 2 years later for our engagement and wedding. The photos they capture bring out so much more than the obvious beauty of the moment. Somehow, they evoke emotion so effortlessly. The only time you remember they are even photographing you is when they are complimenting you & hyping you up. What I love even more is that they pop over to show you how good you look on camera. There is no time to feel self-conscious when they are behind the camera because they make sure you feel as good as you look. Some of our favorite things about them include: There are two of them!!! Which means more perspective and better shots. They have such an insane eye for detail and creative vision. You can just focus on being present, knowing they’ve got it handled. can't stress this enough: the hype. They make you feel like the main character of your life. The finished product!! They can walk the walk. Their photos are just stunning. Their editing style feels natural and vibrant but also tailored to the couple they photograph. Their generosity. They feel like more than photographers in the room. They become your friends and your cheerleaders. Never in a million years would I have imagined that my guests would still be talking about our incredible photographers months after our wedding, but people remember them!! They remember how much fun they are, how kind they are, how freaking cool they look while they're trying to get different angles of the shot. Our wedding will definitely not be the last time we work with them. We can't recommend them more highly. They are indeed the best investment you can make for your day. 100 out of 10.

Christine Merson Photography

Hello! My name is Christine and I love weddings. I have been photographing weddings since 2005 and the more I do it, the more I love it. I also love chocolate, binge-worthy television and Betty White so much, I named my dog after her.

Our wedding weekend was one of the most special times in our lives thus far, and Christine was such a huge part of that! We're New Yorkers who got married in Vermont, and Christine had hired a second shooter from that area. Although she'd coordinated with the other photographer over the phone, they only met in person for the first time the day of the wedding. We were so taken with how well they worked together, and a big part of that is due to how great Christine is with people. Whether she was photographing us as we got ready, or she was rallying all of the guests into a single shot after the ceremony, Christine worked seamlessly. She's funny and charming and knows how to get the shots she needs. She makes the whole operation look effortless, and she'll definitely put you at ease on your big day. We were so happy with our pictures in the end! They look great and really capture the magic we felt that day.

My name is Robenson Charles, and I am a Haitian born, Brooklyn raised portrait and event photographer from New York. What I do involves the best thing in the world and that's to captivate cherishable moments of life, love, and memories through photography. During this new transition in my life, I learned that photography isn't something you "do", it's something you grow into and boy did it grow! Each day I learned new techniques, researched any information on photography, and took part in classes to strengthen my skills. As a result, this new insight was birthed off of how I visualize the world's most intimate moments and turn it into art.

Rob was sooo amazing! Long story short, we hired him for our wedding but we ended up moving our states wedding to destination. We asked if we can put our deposit towards an engagement shoot instead. He did such an amazing job and he was so prepared day of. He bought his equipment and even a DRONE!! We went to two locations, the American Museum of Natural History and the Castle on the Upper West side of Central Park. He let us be us but also posed us. We felt at ease and taken care of. He sent us back the photos pretty quickly too! 11/10 recommend!!

I’m known for documenting candid moments in a bright and vibrant way. I love capturing and creating narratives from start to finish - being a wedding photographer and videographer is the ultimate storytelling experience, and it’s one of my greatest joys. Weddings feel like home to me. I’ve found that it’s hard for me to stop smiling throughout the day, and even afterward, during the editing process. There’s just something about weddings that gets my heart all aflutter.

Rayleen is perfection! If you are looking for a photographer that will not only give you the best photos ever, but also become your friend then Rayleen is your girl! I was very specific about the photographer I was looking for as our venue is very dark and moody so I wanted a photographer that does that same thing. From the moment we met Rayleen we knew she was the one. We loved that we were vibing with her right away and she got that we did not want a lot of posed portraits. We were looking for a lot more candid photos. We did out engagement shoot at the brewery I work at and the photos came out amazing. We knew then that we had picked the right photographer. We had the best day taking photos, we never felt rushed or over photographed. We got our photos back in about 15 weeks which I thought was great even though she kept apologizing it was taking so long! Thank you Rayleen for not only being an amazing photographer, but also for becoming a friend!

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
We loved Isaac and his wife, Jing, who photographed our wedding earlier this month. Isaac was super calm and collected and on top of everything. His 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. He was very considerate when I first reached out about his work and wanted to use him and was very mindful of his travel fees to fit in our budget.

Hi! It's so nice to meet you! I'm a Pennsylvania, New Jersey and New York Photographer from Scranton, Pa. I began my journey as a wedding musician, playing in countless bands in Pennsylvania. It wasn't until the birth of my son that I was thrust into the world of photography. As soon as I snapped my first photo of him, I found the beauty of photography. I quickly noticed the parallels between the music I create and the photos I was taking. The balance between light and dark, joy and sadness, bold and muted, energetic and relaxed intrigued me and drove me to this passion.

And by combining that with digital imagery, I create a collection of photographs that are both captivating and timeless.

Hiba removed any stress I had about photos as a nervous bride who did not feel confident or comfortable being in front of a camera all day. She spent time getting to know us and made sure we were able to capture amazing, memorable photos, without losing sight of the actual point of the day and party we were there to enjoy. Multiple times she seamlessly adapted our shot plan on-the-fly to let us have more time to be with guests or have a moment to ourselves when she sensed we needed it. ALSO she was a baby whisperer with our flower girl and turned frowns into smiles and I'm still not sure how she did that. Highly recommend Hiba!

Anna is absolutely incredible! From our first interaction to even post wedding she has been a dream to work with. Anna is someone you can trust with anything! Not only was she an amazing photographer capturing both our engagement and wedding photos, she was also there to provide advice and even vendor recommendations. (she was the foundation of our dream team!) We can't thank her enough for all that she has done for us and for capturing the most beautiful memories. She is the BEST!

Nelson and his team photographed our May wedding in Plattekill, NY and the experience was absolutely extraordinary! They were professional while also personable making the experience very relaxed and natural. Prior to the big day, Nelson was very communicative and helped design a schedule meeting my interests of different shots and perfected the timing. On the day of, Nelson and his team eased right in without a hitch bouncing from one location to the next and corralling us and family seamlessly while staying on time. There wasn't a single moment of concern or stress during photos! Now to gush about the product!! Nelson and his team caught the most PERFECT moments. My husband and I expressed early on that we preferred candid or organic shots and not so much the typical couple poses. And I must say, Nelson got it right! It brought us right back to the day when we were looking through the huge inventory of shots. Brought tears of joy and gratitude. Lets not forget the video!! My GOD!! It was truly an emotionally provoking video and definitely a fan favorite with family. To Nelson and his team, Dave and I couldn't be happier with all your hard work. We will cherish the moments you captured for a lifetime!

I've had a camera in my hand since I was a kid. My mom was a wedding photographer also. I spend my days taking photos because it inspires me and fills me with joy. To me, there is nothing better than capturing a beautiful moment. I have photographed weddings all over the US TX, NY and the Hudson Valley, the East Coast, as well as in Europe, the Caribbean, & Hawaii. A few more things about me… I love the ocean, traveling, exploring, hiking, dancing, the change of seasons, the outdoors, sunrises, sunsets, walking without a destination, that few minutes of magical golden light before the sun sets, life… and telling stories with photographs.

You need to book Kim whether it be for an event or photoshoot because you will not be disappointed!!! I recently got married at Windham Manor and was only looking for photographers who have photographed there. I found Kim since she was one of the photographers tagged on the venue’s instagram page. Kim was very responsive from the beginning and although i was still a year and a half away from my wedding, we scheduled a zoom call and started planning immediately. The call was very productive as she helped me generate a timeline super early in the game that helped me start planning and getting everything in order with my other vendors. She also showed me photos she had already taken at the venue which were stunning and exactly what we envisioned. Come to the big day, Kim was there early to set up and was ready to go immediately. She let me know her plan along the way and made sure that we were sticking to the timeline and had no problem being able to quickly adjust to things that were not under our control. Either way, everything ran so smoothly thanks to her, including helping me button my extremely difficult dress!! She honestly acted like a friend and was there for us the entire night while also being able to capture everything we wanted. I knew the photos were going to be amazing but she totally exceeded our expectations. She sent some teasers the day after and we were completely blown away by the colors, angles, and backdrops. You can tell that she put so much time into each photo because every single one is stunning. Not to mention, she took soooo many photos and really captured everything from start to finish. We are so grateful to have so many pictures that we can have for a lifetime. Everyone I have shared the photos with have said the same exact thing I worked with a few photographers in my life and I have to say that Kim was the best. Her talent and professionalism is unmatched. I seriously hope we can work with her again one day!!

Momo Shot Photography

  • Serves Vails Gate, NY

I’m a drummer, a mother of two amazing kids, and a proud owner of an 80lb Samoyed. My passion for photography is deeply influenced by my family legacy—my grandmother was a dedicated full-time photographer who spent her life capturing and hand-coloring her own images. Growing up immersed in her art has profoundly shaped my own approach to photography. As a photographer, I'd love to capture the journey of two people in love, telling the genuine and touching story of their life together. I strive to create images that convey heartfelt narratives and reflect the true essence of your relationship and the moments you share.

We hired Momo for our Chinese-Bengali fusion wedding celebration in lower east side of Manhattan in mid June 2024. We had a very small venue with 10 family members and 30 closest and dearest friends of ours for an intimate gathering. Momo’s camera closely followed and captured the unfolding of the event and the subtlest facial expressions of our family, guests and myself throughout the night. I got to know about her work from Red (Chinese Reddit) before entrusting her for one of the most important events of my life, but was still caught exhilarated by her work product on our event — her passion about photography and deep expertise in its technicality shined through the over 200-photo-well-woven storyline. Besides her exceptional work and high professionalism throughout our pre-and-during event communication, I appreciated her confident and genuine approach which I found down-to-earth, super helpful and reassuring — she really put in the work to understand you and amplify your shining traits. It’s such a pleasant and unforgettable experience to work with Momo. I would highly recommend her for any couples who are looking for wedding photographers.

Based in Jersey City, I've been photographing weddings since 2010. I have two degrees in photography and wouldn't change a moment of what I do or how I got here. I spent 5 years producing celebrity photo shoots for magazines like Time Out and InStyle, so keeping cool under fast-paced pressure is kind of my thing. I'm always trying to push the envelope with what I do, whether that's finding a way to make better photos or optimize your experience with me.

Lauren is the absolute GOAT. Her photography style drew us to her, and then her professionalism, excellent organization, fun personality, and take charge yet flexible attitude made us die-hard Lauren fans. I loved working with her so much that I also hired her to work on my business' branding shoot. And honestly, how could I work with anyone else after working with the greatest of all time? Thank you x a million to Lauren for making our wedding photography an absolute dream from start to finish!

Ryan and Heidi are GEMS! We are so thankful we hired them for our wedding. I was actually sad when I had to say bye to them at the end of the night! They made the whole experience personal and fun. We just received a preview of our photos and we could not be happier with the results. All our friends and family were talking about how incredible our photographers were all day. We had 18 people in our wedding party, which is a lot of people to manage for group pictures. There was never a point where photos felt difficult or forced. It was like they were a part of our wedding party crew just enjoying the day with us. My husband and I are not extremely comfortable getting pictures taken, so we were a little nervous to have photographers following us around all day. The whole day felt natural and all of the photos captured real moments rather than posed or staged moments. They were genuine, accommodating, thoughtful, creative, and warm - basically every quality you could want in someone who is with you by your side throughout your entire wedding day. HIRE THEM NOW.

Hey there, I’m Shukhrat, a proud husband, a father and an artist. My love for photography started about fifteen years ago with photojournalism. Today, I continue to utilize my skills in capturing beautiful wedding and portrait moments that evoke the same emotions as the real moment. My photography style is diverse and has been refined over the years to showcase my creative vision. I am all about creating stunning, timeless artwork that truly captures the essence of a moment in true to life colors.

Shukhrat and his wife Rachel just shot our June 8th wedding and we couldn't be happier. They were amazing to work with and the photos are phenomenal! About the pictures: Shukhrat is versatile and very skilled. When we took our engagement photos he provided us with various styles of photos and editing, and then used our feedback to guide the photos he took at our wedding. He is also flexible. We got married in a city park and there were wayyyy more people in the park than we were expecting at 6:00pm at night. Without missing any of the candid details or true-to-life colors that we wanted, Shukhrat was able to frame the photos and/or alter the lighting so that the park goers were barely visible in the background. Both Shukhrat and Rachel are also very skilled at giving direction when needed, but letting you do your own thing the rest of the time. Neither my husband nor I have a lot of experience in front of a camera—they gave us enough direction to feel confident, without making us feel stifled or overly posed. We wanted photos that felt organic and genuine, and they were really able to capture that. Working with Shukhrat and Rachel: The two of them were a dream to work with. Incredibly professional--very communicative, punctual, quick turnaround time on photos. And they are also just lovely people. You spend so much time on your wedding day with your photographers, it's really important to feel comfortable with them, and we certainly did. They brought both a fun, but calming energy, easing our pre-wedding jitters before the ceremony, and leaning into the excitement as the night went on. Although we hardly know them, they felt like friends. We are so glad we booked Shukhrat for our wedding!
