Kozmo Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (10 reviews)
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,600
  • Serves Athens, NY

Hello ! first and foremost, congratulations on your engagement as you embark on this new chapter of your lives. My name is Kevin and I started the ground work Kozmo Photography back in 2014. My goal has always been to capture the uniqueness of each and every couple on the biggest day of their journey together. It is therefore my belief that a great wedding photographer must be able to capture the big and small details throughout the day with minimal interference while being keenly aware of the surrounding conditions. This is my promise as I strive to deliver to each and every couple the wedding photos they deserve.

I would recommend Kozmo Photography to anyone getting married. We had a courthouse wedding, and Kevin still went out of his way to capture the most special moments. He was professional, yet was still able to keep the mood light and fun. He knew the perfect locations to capture the most beautiful photos. He was extremely patient and willing to incorporate our idea with his. He was very responsive/communicative throughout the entire process. He even had the sneak peeks available the very next day. 10/10 would recommend.

Hi, I’m Richard, a wedding photographer based in the Hudson Valley. My passion is finding the beauty in the simplest moments and capturing them in a way that feels raw, real, and full of life. As a candid, photojournalist photographer, I’m all about ditching stiff poses to focus on the relationships, the laughs, and the genuine emotions that tell your distinct story. I aim to capture the little details and authentic moments that make your day uniquely yours.

Awarded Best of Zola
From our very first email exchange to the moment we received our photos, every step of working with Rich was an incredible experience. He always responded quickly, answered every question with patience, and offered thoughtful suggestions I hadn’t even considered. His preparation before the wedding gave us confidence that everything would run smoothly, and it truly did. Richard was exceptionally professional, respectful, kind, and understanding. On our wedding day, he brought a sense of calm amid the chaos. He blended seamlessly into the flow of events—always present when needed, but never intrusive—and coordinated effortlessly with our families, bridal party, and other vendors. He was also incredibly organized with the shots we needed, keeping us on track without ever making us feel rushed. Richard delivered our full gallery exactly one month after our wedding and just before Thanksgiving so we could share the photos with our families over the holiday. It meant so much to us and we were thrilled to receive our pictures so quickly. Looking through the gallery felt like reliving the entire day, moment by moment. He captured the vibe and essence of our wedding perfectly. I especially appreciated his ideas and direction, and his artistic eye genuinely blew us away. He noticed angles, lighting, and emotional moments, capturing everything from the big highlights to the smallest in-between moments. The pictures he took of us, our families, and our venue were stunning—so much so that multiple friends texted us saying the photos looked like they belonged in Vogue. That is entirely to Richard’s credit. Choosing Richard as our wedding photographer was, without question, one of the best decisions I made in the entire wedding process. I am endlessly grateful to have these photos to cherish forever. Choose Rich as your wedding photographer - you will not regret it!!!!

Cassie is fantastic! I have loved following her work and what stood out to me was that all of her photos make everyone in them look amazing. After working with her I can see that her process is to catch the emotion of the day and she does this so well. I love all of our photos and so hard to choose just a few to display. She captures light/dark so well whereas other wedding photographers tend to just wash everyone out. If you are thinking about booking her highly recommend going for it!

There is truly no one better than Rob Spring Photography. Rob and his entire team are outstanding. We were so fortunate to have Rob photograph our engagement session as well as our wedding and we are already sad we don't have an event to look forward to with him! Rob is so talented, genuine, comforting, and an overall amazing human. He brought so much peace, comfort, and laughter to my wedding day. My bridesmaids still are talking about his amazing work and fun personality! I would hire him again in a second. On our wedding day, he brought the amazing Dyan, who truly was our rock all day! She wore so many hats, but also did it with such ease and grace. I couldn't believe it. She guided and helped me in quite literally every way that day. I feel so grateful to have gotten to be with her and I can't recommend her enough either. Dyan is a superstar. When Rob and Dyan enter the room just know you are in the best hands ever. 100% the best duo in this world!

Lindsey, a Virginia native, took her first photo class in high school and has developed a passion for photography and videography ever since!

Awarded Best of Zola
We can not recommend Lindsey with Heart Speak Visuals enough! From the very beginning she made what could be an out of the ordinary and slightly uncomfortable act of professional photos and made it so calming, easy and beautiful! We were beyond lucky to have three separate shoots with Lindsey for our engagement, courthouse elopement, and wedding day with each one being more stunning than the last. She listened to exactly the style of photos we wanted and organized the shot lists with our family and friends on our wedding day with ease. She is excellently priced for the stunning galleries you receive, she is prompt, always available when we needed to check in and as a plus, the site she uses for her galleries is so user friendly and we have all of our professional photos in one place. We could go on and on about how special these photos are to us. Lindsey does not disappoint and we look forward to hopefully having other photo opportunities with her in the future!

It’s close to where I grew up and where my family lives in the Catskills. I love EVERYTHING about a wedding day; the anticipation, the joy, the laughter, the happy tears, and the simple fact that everyone you know is gathered to celebrate with you. I have had the honor of celebrating with so many couples and friends and family and it gives me so much joy. I want you to have the BEST day!! So tell me about your loves, your plans, and let’s start telling your story!

Awarded Best of Zola
Kalz Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with on our wedding day. From our first conversation, Kristin and her team were easy to communicate with, offering a heartfelt and honest approach that put us at ease. Her work is truly extraordinary - the photos they captured are wholesome, charismatic, and perfectly encapsulate the joy and love of our special day. Kristin took the lead, working tirelessly with her team to ensure they captured all the photos we requested. In true Kristin fashion, she went above and beyond, helping our day run more smoothly with her professionalism and attention to detail. We are thrilled with our sneak peak and know that the final product will be well worth the wait. Kristin has felt more like a friend than ‘just’ a photographer and I knew when she captured our engagement photos, it would only be more amazing come time for the wedding. I would without a doubt recommend her to anyone! Her husband is an excellent edition to the team and an absolute delight to have along for the ride.

Hi friend! I'm Becca. Ever since I was little, I wanted to listen to others stories and share them with others. As a result of a college photography class that I loved and my dad's love of nature photography, I was gifted a camera after graduation, and I never stopped! I started taking photos at a performing arts center and became mesmerized with capturing joy. I have been in the wedding industry since I was fourteen and have been taking photos professionally since 2019.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot GUSH enough about Becca. She was hands down the MVP of our wedding day. In the midst of wedding planning busyness, Becca led a thorough meeting with us (the couple) going over the day-of schedule, and covering an exhaustive comprehensive list of all possible photos, helping us prioritize the ones we needed and letting go of those that may have ended up stressing us out to try to take! She made sure to be sensitive to all our hopes for photos, family dynamics, and more. I (the bride) was sick on the wedding day and had to make some adjustments to the day-of schedule, and Becca not only adjusted with such grace and flexibility, but also offered great game-time ideas to make sure we got all the photos we wanted with even less time! During the wedding, Becca stayed even longer than scheduled, was so patient but commanding with getting family photos organized, and stayed in the background throughout the day even though she was right by my (the bride!) side getting the best candid photos. That way, I was able to feel supported AND even more relaxed, she was so nimble, positive, and masterful. As I’ve said since the beginning of working with her, she is simply the BEST.

Hi, I’m Bridget — but you can call me Bee, cause that’s what my friends call me! And since we’re basically already best friends, let me tell you a secret: taking pictures isn’t even the thing I love most about my job. Now, don’t get me wrong, I’m as obsessed with taking gorgeous, dripping-in-light photos that you’ll look back on for ages as much as the next photographer. But what I really love? Meeting the most kind-hearted people and getting to know them on a level much deeper than the typical client-photographer relationship.

Bridget was an absolute dream to work with on our wedding day! Her professionalism, warmth, and incredible talent made our experience truly unforgettable. From the moment we met her, we knew she was the perfect choice to capture our special day. Bridget has an extraordinary ability to put you at ease, making the photo sessions feel natural and fun, which added such a joyful vibe to our wedding. The photos? Absolutely perfect! Bridget’s keen eye for detail and creative vision resulted in stunning images that perfectly encapsulated the love and magic of our day. We were blown away by how quickly she delivered the final photos, beautifully edited and ready to cherish forever. Her efficiency and dedication are unmatched! We wholeheartedly recommend Bridget to anyone looking for a photographer they can trust with their most precious memories. She doesn’t just take photos; she creates art that elevates your entire wedding experience. Bridget’s work is nothing short of magical, and we’re forever grateful for the memories she’s given us. Trust Bridget with your forever photos, you won’t be disappointed!

Thomas and his team were wonderful for our wedding in December! Right from the start he was super helpful to give us all the information and didn't sugar coat anything. I will say I was a little suspicious at first when he said "I can do any style you want" I know some photographers only stick to certain styles. And with our wedding being in Sturbridge MA I was expecting a travel fee. But he wanted us to make sure that he was a professional, he keeps things fair all across the board. Thomas is also super quick when it comes to messaging! If I had any questions he would respond rather quickly. He surpassed my expectations with how accommodating him and his team were when working with us, even changing our minds about packages and addon's only a couple weeks out. On the actually day of the wedding, Thomas and his team were truly our hype men! Even when I was getting ready with my bridesmaids he was in on all of our jokes and making us laugh. While I was getting ready, I heard that the groomsmen and my husband were having the best time getting all the group photos of them. I can not recommend this team enough!

Photographing weddings and elopements is a privilege that I do not take lightly. I treat each moment with as much care as if it were my own! While I am happy to take on weddings of any size, I specialize in intimate weddings or engagement sessions where I can embrace a documentary, candid approach. My favorite moments to capture are those quiet, unplanned interactions. I adore the small details. The moments that sometimes get overlooked but often times help tell the story of your wedding day the most. I thrive with couples who aren’t afraid to be silly and embrace the moments as they come as opposed to forcing it.

Awarded Best of Zola
Sydney was a dream to work with for our wedding! She is so kind and easy-going, she instantly eased all of my wedding day anxieties. She truly does it all and was essential in making our day run smoothly. From fixing my veil, to bustling my dress, and wrangling up our wedding party all while getting fantastic photos. She really is so talented at what she does by capturing all of the in-between, authentic moments that you want to remember forever. Our photos turned out better than I could have ever imagined and are so timeless, we will cherish them for the rest of our lives. We couldn’t recommend her enough not only because of her beautiful work but for the person that she is!!!

Hi, I'm Jaci Berkopec! A self portrait of me would include a frozen pizza, caesar salad bag, and a bottle of white wine. But more importantly I am a wedding, lifestyle and adventure elopement photographer based out of NYC. Weddings and elopements are one of my passions because witnessing love and marriage is one of the most beautiful things we can witness. When shooting with me, expect to have tons of fun and lots of laughs because I like to be weird! Life is too short to be normal! I photograph all types of love.

We 1000000% recommend Jaci for any of your photography needs! She took our engagement photos and shot our wedding last weekend and she is an absolute DREAM to work with. Her confidence, poise, warmth and positivity helped us stay calm and have fun during the busy wedding day. We heard so many compliments from our loved ones who were also so impressed with her attitude and demeanor. And this is all before we saw the photos: her work is UNREAL. We are truly blown away- they are stunning, and capture the JOY and FUN and LOVE we experienced. I get emotional looking at just the sneak peek gallery because it so beautifully memorializes what it felt like on that day, and now we can share it with our grandparents who couldn't make the journey, and ourselves for decades to come. HIRE JACI!!!

Siobhan was truly a pleasure to work with on our special day. She joined us for over 5 hours during our NYC courthouse ceremony and she captured so many incredible moments. Most of my favourites are candid or in motion - we barely knew she was photographing. She also researched the area and managed to bring us to multiple landmarks that made for a beautiful setting. She was able to give clear direction on some of the more formal photos and she made the whole experience lots of fun. I’d highly recommend her very tasteful and professional work.

Capturing love in every color of the rainbow, Kristen Renee Photography tells authentic wedding stories through a relaxed, documentary style. Based in Albany, New York and traveling wherever love leads, Kristen and her team focus on genuine moments rather than stiff poses. From intimate elopements to vibrant celebrations, every wedding is approached with curiosity, empathy, and a deep respect for each couple’s unique story. The goal is simple: photographs that feel real, timeless, and unmistakably you.

We worked with Kristen & Sheridan for our wedding earlier this year and are so lucky to have found them! TL;DR: From planning and day-of execution to the delivery of our wedding gallery, Kristen & Sheridan were incredible to work with. Not only were they the perfect presence for our wedding day, they captured it in such an authentic way with a stunning final product. We connected with Kristen & Sheridan the moment we met them which was important to us considering the amount of time you spend around your photographers. We did an engagement shoot prior and we not only received an incredible batch of photos, but we were able to establish a rapport that made the flow of our wedding day feel that much easier. When we had to tweak our photo schedule or change locations, they were the perfect people to help us pivot and keep things on track. And when it was time for the ceremony & reception, their discrete coverage led to incredible results that captured our day in such an incredible way. The wedding gallery they created was nothing short of amazing and we were able to see moments of friends & family we would have never seen day-of. And truly, everyone who interacted with them LOVED them. We had opted not to have a videographer and knew our photographs were going to be our primary memory of the day, and we have no notes! Kristen & Sheridan captured the perfect story of our wedding and we would recommend them to anyone!

Hello, new friend! I'm Rebecca. I'm a journalist who fell in love with taking pictures and documenting love. I'm also enthusiastically lgbtq+ friendly, body-positive, delighted by DIY and pro making-it-up-as-you-go. Let's celebrate your love, your way. I have to be up front about a few things. First, I'm probably going to make friends with your grandma, and even shake it while taking photos on the dance floor. Oh, and if your pet is involved in your wedding, I might pass out from joy. I will almost definitely get a little teary-eyed during your vows, but don't worry... I can take pictures and cry at the same time.

We have the opportunity to work with Rebecca for our wedding photos. Not only did she bring the joy and energy with her on my wedding day. But she also gave amazing direction when taking photos. She made me feel so confident in every photo that we took. We had such an amazing time having Rebecca as a photographer. I can honestly say every single wedding photo was perfection!!!

I use photography as an exchange. An exchange of memories, thoughts, experiences, artistic expression, and time. Photography will always be some sort of a belief system in practice. It's not a business ordeal but a collaborative tool in the way that light shapes literally and figuratively every moment. I am passionate about photographing someone's soul within an experience. I have been photographing weddings since 2008.

I’ve hired Ellie multiple times to capture meaningful moments in my life, and I’ll keep going back. She’s special. Not just a great experience to work with, but the photos themselves feel rare. Unique, honest… and actually saying something. Think National Geographic, not People magazine. Do yourself a favor and hire her.

They are very professional but do not make you feel pressured at all - Sarah has great ideas and really hypes you up throughout the process. Drew always found creative ways to shoot the day and Sarah was there for me every step of the way, even when I needed quick help with my dress. Sarah is so dependable and the pictures they captured showcase both of their talents and our love so well. I'd pick Hawthorn Photography for photos for every occasion and in every lifetime!
