The Lovely Lens 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,400
  • Serves Smyrna, NY

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 was incredible to work with. My (now) husband and I are usually pretty awkward in front of a camera so it was really important for us to find a photographer we felt comfortable with. I knew Celia would be that person as soon as we first connected! She's such a warm personality and a very calming presence to have around on a day that can be quite stressful. She did a phenomenal job capturing all of the candid moments of the day and then gave us some direction when she saw a cool opportunity for a shot, which is exactly what we were looking for. The photos she took are stunning and turned out better than we could have ever imagined. We both still cry when we look at them. Highly Highly recommend working with The Lovely Lens for your wedding!!

Julia is truly the BEST photographer out there and she makes everyone look SO GOOD!! We booked her for both our engagement session and our wedding because we loved her so much! She is so skillful at finding beautiful angles and working with natural lighting, and she was great at directing us with suggested poses that didn’t look forced or unnatural. She was also really easy to work with: we met up beforehand to communicate our vision and discuss the kinds of photographs that we wanted for the engagement session and we did that again for our wedding. On our wedding day Julia brought her husband Leo who is also a photographer to assist her and they came early in the morning to begin taking scenery photos, details, and other things while the rest of us got ready. She was there with us throughout the entire day all the way til the end of the evening and she went out with us to take some sunset photos in the middle of the reception, which turned out so beautifully! Finally, Julia was super prompt at sending us the final photographs, which I know she worked hard on because there were A LOT! We can tell that Julia truly enjoys what she does and really wants to get the best photos possible so she always goes above and beyond. I think the phenomenal photos that we’re sharing here can speak for themselves. She was such a joy to work with and we can’t wait to find some other excuse to hire her again!!

Kayla French Photography

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,400
  • Serves Smyrna, NY

Hello, I'm Kayla! Voted most likely to succeed in the field of agriculture. Yet somehow, landed here. And I wouldn't change a single thing. Life has taken me on some crazy adventures and up until 6 years ago, none of those pointed to being a photographer. Becoming a mom led me to pick up a camera and since then I haven't put it back down. I quickly developed a passion for telling people's stories. Capturing the most intimate, heartfelt moments truly sets my soul on fire.

Kayla French Photography was a fantastic choice for our wedding photography. Kayla provided great communication everything leading up to the wedding and after, and the day of she couldn't have been more helpful. Kayla's work is absolutely amazing - you can tell she loves what she does and it really shows in the beautiful photos she captured. Kayla helped in every way to contribute to our special day, and our guests really enjoyed her presence and positive energy. We are thrilled with the sneak peaks and can not wait to see final photos. We would highly recommend Kayla French Photography to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photographer.

Allison Usavage Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Smyrna, NY

As a documentary-style wedding photographer, I help couples tell their honest and joyful stories. And honestly, you don’t need someone directing you– you’re more beautiful when you’re just being you. I firmly believe you should spend your wedding day focused on yourself, your partner, and your celebration– not the camera.

I can’t say enough good things about Allison!! She photographed our tiny 12-person pandemic wedding and was the only vendor we had for the day. She was beyond professional, so easy to work with, and really helped make our day feel special. She had great ideas about setting up our ceremony that we would have never thought of on our own (like where exactly to stand for vows, etc.). She made us all feel super comfortable in front of the camera and our families loved having her around. Best of all - the photos. Wow. Everyone who sees them says they can just feel the love radiating out of them. What a special memento of our wedding day. She captured the feeling of the day perfectly, and balanced a documentary style (non-invasively capturing sweet moments as they happened) plus really nice staged family pics that our moms loved and have already made the holiday cards! I can’t recommend Allison highly enough.

Morgan Courtright Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,300
  • Serves Smyrna, NY

Wedding, couples and boudoir photographer based in Owego, NY. I do both outdoor session and studio sessions. Some fun facts about me: #boymom, book worm, gear head, horror fanatic, iced coffee is life.

I had the pleasure of working with Morgan at a styled photo shoot I planned. Morgan was professional, easy to work with, and fun to be around. She worked well with the other photographers and gave clear directions to the couple being photographed. She was quick to edit photos and get them back to me. Even though it was a staged shoot, none of the photos of the couple look “staged.” I absolutely love her editing style, and her photos from the shoot are some of my favorites from the whole day. I use her photos frequently in social media posts, printed marketing materials and advertisements. I’m looking forward to having Morgan take some branding photos for me and my business coming up this spring. I’ve added her to my preferred vendor list for a reason. You definitely want Morgan to capture your day!

Claire Teator Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,200
  • Serves Smyrna, NY

I'm a wedding & lifestyle photographer currently living in upstate New York and serving the greater tri-state area. I love photographing special moments between people and exploring new places, it's that simple. I'm also a huge yarn nerd, iced coffee addict and a lover of all things the color red. Let's connect - I'd love to hear from you!

Claire was amazing!! She is so sweet and personable, right from the very first email exchange. Her rates are very reasonable and transparent, and she even helped us customize a package that worked best for our wedding. We had two pre-wedding sessions to go over the details, list of photos needed, and all the logistics, and she was very accessible via email throughout the process. She emailed me two days before the wedding letting me know that she had scoped out the venue and the surrounding area to find good photo spots, which made the day of so much smoother. We did our formal photos before the ceremony, and she corralled the family and wedding party professionally and kindly. She kept our spirits up and she wasted no time. Her assistant was also very professional and friendly, and they collaborated so well to get maximum photos at every angle. Claire made sure we had plenty of time for just the grooms, various locations and poses, and we got to have fun and create some really unique shots! During the ceremony I didn't even register that she was in the room, and yet we have beautiful photos of the entire thing, so she did a great job of staying out of the way while also getting all of the important shots! Throughout the cocktail hour and reception Claire and her assistant split off to maximize coverage, but I felt that one of them was always close by for a good shot. They also pulled us to the balcony to catch some beautiful shots at sunset, and those were absolutely worth it! Throughout the evening, if I found myself dancing or talking with someone I hadn't gotten a picture with yet, I could easily gesture or call to them to get our picture, and they also got plenty of other action shots. We received a "sneak peek" of about 50 photos within 24 hours of our event, and the full set of photos within 2 months. She gave us the time we needed to finalize our photo album, and had it published very quickly. We are so glad we chose Claire, she captured our day perfectly and was such a pleasure to work with.

Jen Pecka Photography

  • Serves Smyrna, NY

When I'm not behind the camera I'm hiking, fly fishing and doing yoga. I'll use any excuse to head north to the Adirondacks. (Eagle Bay donuts is my favorite incentive for a day trip.) I'm on my way to becoming a licensed yoga instructor. I'm obsessed with how my hair smells after a day in the woods. If you can relate, we'll probably be best friends. I live with my amazing fiancé, Alex, and we have two kids who are way cooler than we are. We also have FIVE cats and two dogs. I'm always down for a coffee date if you want to chat wedding details or hiking trails. I always want your dog to come to your engagement sessions.

Booking Jen Pecka Photography for our wedding was one of the easiest and definitely one of the best decisions we made for our January wedding! From the moment we met, Jen made us feel super comfortable and confident in front of her camera. She shot both our engagement session as well as our big day and all of the photos came out absolutely GORGEOUS!!! She captured every single detail of our wedding beautifully. As we looked through our wedding photos for the first time, we were able to relive the best day of our lives. Jen not only captures special moments, but the genuine emotions of those being photographed. All of our photos are STUNNING, I am having a very difficult time choosing favorites to print and hang in our home. Trust Jen Pecka Photography to capture your wedding day, you will not regret it!

Kam and her team at Kam Wickam Photography were an absolute pleasure to work with for our multi-day wedding celebration in Austin, Texas. From our very first interaction, Kam was prompt in her communication, easy to talk to, and incredibly helpful in answering all of our questions. On the wedding days, she was on it from beginning to end, capturing the most gorgeous, unique shots that truly felt like works of art. (I added some of my favorite film shots she took!) Despite having to photograph at multiple locations over the course of 3 days, Kam and her team were incredibly flexible. We are thrilled with the final photos and could not recommend Kam Wickam Photography more highly for any couple looking for a talented, professional, and personable photography team to help make their special day unforgettable.

My husband and I hired Edgar (Anchor Studios) as our photographer for our wedding on July 7, 2024. He did an amazing job!! Since we started working with him for our engagement pictures up to the wedding and after, he has been great at communication and very professional. He went above and beyond by helping us create a timeline for our wedding because didn’t know how weddings usually go. He worked so hard on the day of our wedding to get the best shots, and was very kind and helped us a lot with organizing order of events. He had great ideas for poses and was very mindful to get all the pictures we wanted with family members and bridal party. And even better than all of this, when we got the pictures, they came out amazing!! It’s very clear that he put a lot of hard work into making them look incredible. He is a very talented and skilled photographer. We were blown away by how they turned out! We are very thankful for how hard he worked and how great he made the picture look! We highly recommend him!

I present fun, elegant, and exciting Wedding Photography for my clients. My style is photojournalistic; I feel it's the most effective way to tell a story. After all, there is so much happening on a wedding day. Between the ceremony, dancing, and endless extravaganzas, the most memorable moments will naturally occur.  My goal is to capture the emotions and memories of your day through my lens. These recollections are your forever keepsakes, a chapter of your life's story. Every image accounts for those who were by your side, delighted for you, and the next step in your journey. I appreciate you for giving me a few moments of your time.t

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I were from out of town and hired Sean to photograph us at a Christmas gala at the place we got married. He was accommodating to last minute changes to make the most of the session and even went above and beyond to make it happen. Upon first impression, he was upbeat and had a vision. We were outside in sub 30 degree weather with fading evening light as well as low light inside a building and he was up for the challenge. We ended up with beautiful images in less than ideal conditions and that is what makes a great photographer. Sean has a sense of humor and an eye for that perfect photograph. He was fun to work with and his heart for people and creativity shows through. Thank you Sean for capturing this time in our lives.

I am SO HAPPY that we hired Ali for our wedding! She was so kind and easygoing while also totally in command and on top of every request we had photography wise. Her years of wedding coordination and event experience were truly evident throughout every step of the day. Not only was she totally on top of keeping us on our timeline and capturing all of the special moments, but she even went into super hero mode and on the spot sewed one of my bridesmaids dresses in the bathroom right before the ceremony without showing an ounce of stress. We already received our preview photos and are truly blown away by how she captured our love & our special day. Her attention to detail, calming presence, and creative approach are truly invaluable and we will be recommending her to everyone we know for years to come!
