The Story Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,600
  • Serves Cortland, 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.

We are Maria and Scott, inclusive, film and digital destination wedding photographers, with an easygoing, refined, photojournalistic approach. Most of our work takes place all over New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania, but we've been to several states and as far as Scotland to photograph our clients (yes that was amazing). As your photographers, we will help you enjoy as much of your wedding as possible, try to make sure you get to eat, and then receive beautiful photos to help you relieve the day whenever you hold them.

Maria and Scott are absolutely everything you could want from your wedding photographer!! Aside from their photos turning out gorgeous, it is a pleasure working with them throughout the whole process. When we were looking for a photographer, we wanted a balance of being present and enjoying our day while still feeling like all the important moments were captured, and that’s exactly what we got! It’s so nice looking back at our photos and feeling like they really captured it all, formal and candid. From first contact, to wedding day, to receiving our photos, each step was stress free. It really feels like we got everything we could have wanted working with them, and we’re so happy we had them to capture our day!!

The Lovely Lens

  • Serves Cortland, 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 so amazing! She was kind and attentive and listened to what was important to us. We have a collection of action shots and some group photos, we just looked through them with family over the holiday and were reminded of how much fun we had at our wedding! Celia captured the color and action and we have such a lovely record of our event to carry forward with us. She also clearly communicated timing, pay and contract needs / expectations. Highly recommended!!

Hey! I'm Danielle, and I have been photographing weddings for over twenty years now.

Allison Usavage Photography

  • Photojournalistic style

  • Serves Cortland, 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.

Claire Teator Photography

  • Photojournalistic style

  • Serves Cortland, NY

My photography journey began in college with film. After moving from Pennsylvania to NYC, I fell in love with wedding and street photography while documenting daily life on 35mm. I brought my camera everywhere, observing how people interact and how moments unfold. Those years shaped the way I approach photographing couples and families today—with curiosity, patience, and a love for capturing real, unscripted moments.

Look no further! Claire is, by far, the most professional and reasonably priced wedding photographer in the Tristate Area. She was recommended to me by a very close friend who is also a wedding photographer. Claire started out as her assistant, but assistant she is no more! She is great at what she does and is extremely personable. We met for a drink and within 1min I knew she was who we would go with. She is calm, organized, friendly and good at her job! What more could you ask for? Besides our wedding coordinator, Claire was the one who made our wedding happen. Her timelines and schedule helped the day move along smoothly, she made sure we took great sunset beach pictures and (thankfully) convinced me to do a first look so we didn't completely miss our cocktail hour. We had 260 guests, most of them being family members, which would not be an easy task for anyone. Claire was professional and helpful and somehow it all worked out perfectly. The turnaround was very quick; we were able to make Christmas cards out of pictures she took less than 2 months before. We are still using her website to order prints (which come out beautifully btw) and will continue to do so! We are so thankful that this part of our wedding turned out as amazing as it did. Photos can make or break a day, and ours was a homerun!

Josh Baldo Photography

I have always been in love with photography. The hard part in the beginning was turning it into a career! But through exploring the different types and genres of photography, I settled on portraiture with an editorial or story-based style. Weddings were the natural outlet for this interest. They are beautiful, fun, and I can be creative. There is an element of joy and excitement that I am drawn too. Every wedding is different, but they all have these qualities.

Josh Baldo Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From our first interaction, his communication style was easy, comfortable and adjustable to our needs. The quality of Josh’s work was artistic and excellent. He delivered the photos in a timely manner as promised. On the day of our wedding, Josh moved with ease throughout the ceremony. He never drew attention to himself, and was able to capture all the special moments seamlessly. We are thrilled with the beautiful, vibrant photos that now allow us to relive our wedding day. We highly recommend Josh Baldo Photography to any couple looking for an exceptional photography experience.

Glad you're here! I am committed to authentic storytelling, candid moments and fostering amazing relationships with my clients. It doesn't matter to me if you're getting married in your backyard, or in a ballroom- all weddings are beautiful to me.

I wanted a photographer that would capture the authentic joy of our wedding day and Anna was the perfect choice! Our photos are so beautiful and looking at them instantly takes me back to how I felt on our wedding day. We had both blazing hot sun and rain during our wedding, and the photos from both are equally gorgeous. Anna was easy to work with and was very knowledgeable on how to schedule photos throughout the day. I am so grateful to have such beautiful pictures that I can treasure for years to come!

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!

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

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 feel so lucky to have found these amazing people! Heather and her incredible team feel like family to us, even though we only met a few months ago. They really care about their clients and want them to have the best photos possible. During the wedding, Heather would always make sure I was comfortable by giving me flattering poses and pointing her portable fan at me when I was too hot from dancing at the reception, ha! She stayed in communication with me, the other vendors, and her own team flawlessly, so I didn't have to worry about a thing. Not only was everything organized and efficient, but it was also fun! Our whole wedding party had a great time making jokes and messing around with the photographers, and seeing them have fun made the whole vibe a lot better. They hyped us up in every pose and made the day nothing but positive. I would highly recommend Heather and her team to anyone who wants a photographer who cares about them! I felt like a million bucks on my wedding day, and I have to say it is mainly because of these incredible photographers. Finally, the results speak for themselves! The pictures we received literally look like they're out of a movie. Their talent is unmatched and should be talked about more. The feelings and emotions of our special day were captured in such a natural and beautiful way. I am so grateful to have these pictures for life, and I can't wait to show my kids one day. I will never be able to forget what it felt like, thanks to these incredible people with unreal talent. I also cannot believe how easy it was to book her and for such a reasonable price!

After graduating from Parson's School of Art in Manhattan, I worked as a fine artist, my work involved photography and photo manipulation. I quickly discovered that I loved and excelled at photo retouching, and went on to work for some of the best photo retouching studios in New York. In 2009 I shot my first wedding, it was a dear friend of mine and the beautiful photos were featured in one of the biggest wedding magazines. I realized that I had found my calling and have been producing stunning wedding photographs with my amazing team and clients ever since.

It was such a pleasure working with Emma Cleary photography and videography. From the start, Emma was great to communicate with and always responded very promptly. She was organized from the start and made planning easy. The crew really captured the day so beautifully and professionally and looking back on the photos and videos makes us so happy. We keep watching the videos over and over! The editing and attention to detail on all of their work is all at such an incredibly high level. The photographers (David, Dilmurad) and the videographer (Kamil) were so fun and easy on the day of the wedding, they knew exactly how to get the perfect shots in a way that didn’t interrupt the flow of the day while still capturing everything so well. When the Groomsmen didn’t know how to properly attach their boutonnieres, the cameraman stepped up to help out and show them how to do it! We were running a bit behind schedule on the Bride’s side during the day of the wedding, but the crew was patient with us and found plenty to take pictures of while we finished getting ready. Emma Cleary’s team were all such fun to work with and we are so thankful for the memories that they captured.

Being able to send them a list of must-have shots was such a relief, and they powered through it all while still keeping things fun and natural. Those photos will be cherished for a lifetime!

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.

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.

This is delightfully different elopement + wedding photography! 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 worked with Kathryn for our October 2024 Hindu/Jewish blended wedding and were so happy with our decision!! We spoke with MANY photographers during the planning process trying to decide who fit our style and personality leading up to our wedding. Neither of us feel super comfortable in front of the camera so it was important to us that we found someone who truly fit us and what we were looking for. Kathryn's warmth, adventurous spirit, and genuine curiosity about us as a couple really stood out, and we immediately knew she was who we wanted to work with. We had a large wedding with many Hindu/Jewish traditions making the day busy & hectic, but Kathryn's professionalism and calm attitude made us feel at ease. We really appreciated how on top of it she was, sticking to our timeline and facilitating our rather large (and rowdy!) group, all while making the staged photos seamless and the candids from the reception/baraat so special and a true representation our special day. The colors are just magnificent, and we had many guests compliment her work, fun nature, and professionalism throughout the night. Thank you Kathryn for making our day so wonderful!!
