New York, NY
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $1,500

As a wedding photographer and videographer serving New York and New Jersey, my team and I are dedicated to creating authentic, timeless, and emotionally rich visuals that tell the story of your special day. With over 11 years of experience in the industry, we've developed a keen eye for capturing the natural nuances, energy, and relationships that make each wedding unique. Our style combines wedding photojournalism with fine art and fashion photography. We focus on guiding rather than posing, allowing your photos to reflect the genuine essence and emotion of your celebration.

Awarded Best of Zola
Kostromina Production was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding photography. From the very first interaction, their communication style was transparent, straightforward, and fast - which put us at ease immediately. Alena, our lead photographer, was instrumental in helping us create a detailed timeline for the day and even stepped in when our wedding coordinator was unavailable, ensuring everything ran smoothly. Her warm, outgoing personality and willingness to help with all aspects of planning, from budgeting to timeline creation, went above and beyond our expectations. The quality of Kostromina Production's work is undeniably high, and the final photos captured the beauty and emotion of our special day perfectly. We couldn't be happier with our decision to work with them and highly recommend their services to any couple planning their wedding.

Andrew and I met in the most random place, hiking in the woods 100 miles from where either of us lived. We spoke on the phone for months and saw each other when we could, while we lived hours apart. 7 Years later we're married, raising a handsome pup, and running a business together. Since inception we have won Best of Westchester 2020 for weddings and numerous other industry awards. We take a modern approach to photography. We will light you and pose you in the most flattering natural ways and place you in front of the most beautiful backgrounds, while being professional, respectful and patient with everyone on your guest list!

Awarded Best of Zola
Rebeca and Andrew were great! From the moment we first reached out to them about booking, they have always been very genuine and helpful. Rebeca was very good with remembering what shots & poses I wanted. We ran behind on timing due to other reasons so I was worried we wouldn't get all the pictures done in time before the ceremony but they were great at making sure we got what we wanted. We got over 100 sneak peak photos a few days after the wedding and so far we love everything! Cannot wait to see more and would recommend R&A to anyone! Also highly recommend doing your engagement photos with them as it was a great way to get to know them & get comfortable before the big day!

Emilee E. Photography 

5.0

New York, NY
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $500

Hey there! My name is Emilee, and I am a Minnesota-native living in NYC! I've been photographing people and events for the past 15 years. I shoot families, couples, individuals, and pets, but my passion lies in wedding photography. I love capturing the whirlwind of a couples' big day, and seeing the love that is shared between them and all their wedding guests. It's magical and wonderful every. single. time. My current active markets are Minnesota and New York, but I'm available to travel anywhere in the US and the world for additional fees!

Awarded Best of Zola
What a dream Emilee was to work with, from start to finish. OUR CEREMONY PARTY: we decided on a private, courthouse elopement on a Wednesday, a 60 person reception party on a Friday. In both, our biggest priority was having a photographer capture the intimate, joyful small details. We went with Emilee because of her eye for the beauty in the small things. She captured both our days perfectly. DOCUMENTARY STYLE: Emilee was perfect behind the scenes, capturing beautiful moments of our friends and family, small details of the courthouse with just us. I look back at some of these photos and ask "how did she even get that?!" She has such an eye. POSED: We had about 20 minutes dedicated to posed, family photos during our reception. Emilee had our families relaxed and laughing, quickly swapping members in and out. In some newlywed photos, we sought her advice for how to pose. She gave quick direction, made us feel confident, and always found the perfect light. COMMUNICATION SPEED: Delivered on every promise, quick replies. Emilee was 15 minutes early to both locations, we never had to worry. PERSONALLY: We met with Emilee about 4 months before our big days. We had coffee, talked about our vision and our biggest priorities. She immediately felt like a friend, and knew she was firmly on our team. If you're looking for a photographer to capture not only beautiful photos of yourself, but more importantly, the feeling in every room, Emilee is the photographer for you. We recommend wholeheartedly, and can't wait for another occasion to work with her. Sincerely, Mara James

Mei Day Photography

New York, NY
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $1,200

Hi, I'm Mei! I first started out in photography just taking photos of friends in college, and now I get to photograph weddings, performances, celebrations, special events, and everything in between. Whether you're a natural in front of the camera or you hide whenever one comes out (like me!), I'm ready to capture you at your most radiant.

Awarded Best of Zola
I am not exaggerating when I say that the thing we have gotten the most complements on since our special day is the photos themselves. Mei is phenomenal at capturing tender and exuberant moments AS THEY HAPPEN. Nothing looks staged because nothing felt staged. She was there with us to make every step of what could have been a very stressful day feel as fun, loving, and exciting as possible. From booking to planning to the wedding weekend itself, Mei was communicative, gentle, and intentional. She wasn't just there to capture the weekend, she improved it in every way. I could not imagine a better photographer to work with—from communication to vibes to the photos themselves, Mei is the best of the best!

My husband and I cannot applaud Mikkel enough for being such a superstar photographer! She is truly a professional with a bubbly, upbeat attitude and she possesses the rare ability to make you feel like the most important person in the world when she speaks to you. Not only did she remember our wedding day details, but also she made an attempt (successfully) to remember all the names of our family members and friends. My husband and I were also blown away by her amazing talent of being in five places at once on our wedding day. Mikkel captured absolutely gorgeous photos that look bright and natural--exactly what we wanted! It is impossible to pick a handful of favorites from her gallery because they are all gorgeous. We cannot thank her enough for her positivity, professionalism, and eye for what we wanted to remember. You have found your photographer here- look no further :)

Alex Knight Studio 

5.0

New York, NY
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $5,500

In an age of algorithms, hashtags, and followers photography has taught Alex the true importance of the human connection. To him, photography is more than composing a beautiful shot or finding the best light. It’s about finding moments that shares with the viewer a special insight into the couples, the friends, that he has the privilege to document. He strives to capture feelings and emotions that take people back to special moments worth remembering for generations to come.

Awarded Best of Zola
Alex Knight Studio is an 11/10. When my now husband and I were first planning our wedding, there was no one else we would have considered for the job. He has shot the engagements and weddings for more than a handful of my friends. We all keep coming back to his studio because he is immensely talented. The photos are natural and emotive, and everyone always looks good. Through his lens, subjects resemble how they must see themselves on their best day. He can play it straight or incorporate more artistic elements - for us specifically, he helped capture our unique vision for our engagement shoot that came included within the wedding package, which he always does so he can get to know the couple and their chemistry. On top of all of this - Alex is also just the coolest. He is a great hang, interesting and interested, easy going, calm, joyful, professional and organized. He becomes seamlessly apart of the party - which I'm sure is how he gets the best photos that truly capture the spirit of the room and interactions. Weddings are overwhelming and fast moving - and he's right there by your side with the right energy needed. He goes above and beyond - quelling nerves and even helped my bridesmaids fasten my veil. He knows weddings!

New York, NY

I was voted Friendliest in high school (very proud of that fact), and I genuinely love what I do. I cry at every wedding, and I usually cry again when I'm editing your photos. I used to be an actor on Broadway and TV, and I think that makes me a stickler for making sure your photos are authentic and believable. (And I will help you get there!) I'm married to a wonderful man, so I've been through the wedding planning from the other side (ahh!), and we have an adorable little dog. :)

David is one of my go-to photographers for any wedding I plan! His work is fabulous as is the professionalism and positive energy he always brings on site with him.

We operate across the USA, Canada, & Europe, and travel around the world.

FIVE STARS!! I knew my wedding day was going to fly by and I wouldn’t be able to witness every moment so having a good videographer was one of the most important things on my list. I felt discouraged with how much videographers seemed to cost though, until I booked Silver Arrow Band and saw you could also book videography services through them with a 10% discount when you booked both. I watched a few of their videos and was blown away, it was everything I was looking for! We did the full package of two videographers, full ceremony, speeches, and dance coverage, and the best part - drone footage! Our venue Saltwater Farm Vineyard is on a beautiful estuary and I was really hoping to cover both the nature and the important moments of our big day. The videographers were amazing to work with. They were both so kind, helpful, and made sure to capture every moment big or small. They had the groom and officiant properly mic’d up so they could capture every word. The teaser, the highlight reel, and the fully ceremony and speeches are incredible! They were able to capture all of our favorite moments. It was also so great seeing how much fun our guests were having. I promise your money is well spent if you book Lightwave Event Artists!

Hi There! I'M KALA (PRONOUNCED KAY-LUH) Let’s dive right in. I’m a wedding, portrait, and lifestyle photographer and if you don’t spot my hair first, you’ll hear my voice. I have a list for everything (yes, they’re color-coded) and am somehow still finding new ways to decorate a one bedroom NYC apartment (one word—plants).

I can’t recommend Kala enough. She has photographed countless special moments for my family, friends, and even my pets. We started working together when she photographed my wedding in Vermont. She captured the day so perfectly and we have stunning photos. She’s photographed my growing family, from infant photos to first birthdays. She is a pleasure to work with. Kala is very timely and provides sneak peak photos usually 1 day after the event. She does an excellent job editing photos and will work with you if you have any feedback. I love working with her and highly recommend her!!

My clients and even wedding guests often comment on my calm demeanor in the midst of a wedding day "crisis" (yes, they happen at every wedding). I definitely attribute this to my time in the entertainment industry. My goal is to be a place of peace and calm for you, not just on your wedding day, but throughout the wedding planning process. In short: I'm going to help you (over) prepare for the best day ever, and when we need to pivot, you can count on me to be easy going and along for the ride.

Georgia blew our expectations out of the water on our wedding day! Not only did I feel like she was one of my friends alongside me all day, making sure we got the money shots & keeping it fun- she also came an hour earlier than we planned/ paid for just to be overly prepared and cover all her bases. She made us and our friends and family feel so comfortable and the photos look so authentic because of it. It’s clear this is her passion and she DELIVERSSSS!! We’re so obsessed with our photos and are so so grateful to have worked with Georgia on such an important day.
