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

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.

Kevin did our engagement pictures and wedding day pictures. He was extremely professional, easy to communicate with and made everyone very comfortable in front of the camera! He did SUCH a wonderful job and we would choose him over and over again!!! Thanks so much, Kevin!!!

Kristen Renee Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (6 reviews)
Schenectady, NY
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,600

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!

T. L. Holloway 
Rating: 5.0 (5 reviews)
Schenectady, NY
  • Band or Ensemble

Wedding and event band based in New York’s Capital Region. We do cocktail jazz, wedding receptions, ceremony music and more. Today, jazz is a rarity, especially in its purist live form. This condition is a result of its limited availability, and the higher prevalence of rock bands in most areas. We at T. L. Holloway seek to alleviate this issue. As students of the jazz classics, we seek to provide authentic American jazz to venues and events all over the Northeastern United States.

Awarded Best of Zola
T.L. Holloway was the perfect band for our June garden wedding. Steve, John, Peter, and Dylan are fantastic people, extraordinary musicians, and organized planners. These four showed off their versatility and stamina by playing throughout our whole wedding day — from ceremony music with custom renditions of some of our favorite folk songs, through the cocktail hour and dinner with smooth jazz and Sinatra, and closing out the night with faster jazz mixed with classic American and contemporary tunes to keep everyone dancing. They graciously provided sound equipment for our outdoor ceremony, and Steve artfully handled wedding party introductions during the reception as well as various announcements. Throughout the night we noticed them checking their sound from various locations — that attention to detail and care typified our experience, from our first planning call until their last song. They made everything easy for us, were extremely generous with their time during planning, and their renditions of songs we selected were beyond what we imagined was possible. Our guests (and us!) were simply enamored! As lovers of jazz and classic American tunes (but not necessarily dancing), these guys had us and our guests dancing all night. They matched our style and energy level perfectly. We received countless guest compliments on their behalf, though the credit is all theirs. Whenever we think back on our wedding day, their music will always be a cherished part of it! We can’t recommend enough — or thank enough — T.L. Holloway.

Weddings can be incredibly stressful and sometimes not go as you planned, but I can guarantee The Edison Downtown staff will make your special day the best wedding or event you’ve ever had. Jena, our wedding coordinator and Bylinda, the owner, truly went above and beyond any of my expectations for my wedding day. The attention to care to not only myself but all family members and party members was impeccable. The organization and leadership day of from Jena highly attributes to the perfection and smoothness of our wedding. She was there late the night before and there bright and early the day of to make sure everything we wanted was done correctly and done timely. She made sure to keep to our schedule and even if there were any bumps in our timeline, she handed it for us. She paid incredible attention to detail to both our wedding and after party, as we had a completely different themed event also at the venue slightly after our wedding ended. I’m sure this made it more difficult than usual for the staff, but Jena handled the organization of all of our decor and organization of the staff and people involved like a seasoned professional. The food from Season’s Catering was divine and some of the best food we can recall having at a wedding or other event in a very, very long time. Our guests cannot stop talking about how absolutely delicious all of the food was, how gorgeous and unique the venue was, and how it was one of the best weddings they have attended. From the bartender to the servers, everyone was so sweet and seemed so excited to be working our wedding day. I didn’t know exactly what to expect planning my first wedding, but was so thankful for having Bylinda and having Jena from the venue to handle everything. Any event at The Edison Downtown is worth every penny. We cannot thank everyone enough for all of the effort they put into our special day.

She put me at ease when my nerves were acting up, helped us find my phone when it went missing for like and hour and a half () and even got some great pics of my daughter!

I’m the photographer/designer behind Redesignwithme. Booking a session with me is like hanging out with your slightly artsy, extremely enthusiastic friend who just happens to be really good with a camera (and obsessed with candy). I’m here for the real moments, the awkward laughs, and all the in-between magic. I like to keep things fun, stress-free, and very YOU.

Rachel was such a great photographer for both our engagement photos and our wedding day! She truly captured the important moments that make us who we each are; Ian on the piano and me on the dance floor with our friends and family listening to him play! At our engagement shoot, it was so cold, but Rachel made it so much fun with her little jokes and personality. She did a great job on the wedding day getting all of our family shots before the ceremony. We would highly suggest Rachel for any photography needs!

Your wedding day goes by in a blur—but the memories don’t have to. I love capturing the real moments, emotions, and details of your special day so that through photos and short videos, you can relive exactly how it felt.

From our first conversation with Dana Rae Photographs, we knew we had found the right photographer for our wedding. She stayed in touch with us throughout the planning process, always responsive and ready to answer our questions. Dana really listened to what mattered to us—I wanted my wedding jewelry to be highlighted in our photos, and she made that happen beautifully. On our wedding day, she captured all the small moments we didn't want to forget, from getting ready to the quiet details between big events. What impressed us most was how she made us feel so important and special, treating our day like it was her own. Dana's creative vision and willingness to bring ideas to the table resulted in photos we absolutely love.

River Stone Manor was absolutely incredible for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. The grounds were in beautiful condition, and the updated aesthetic created such a gorgeous setting for our celebration. We were married in front of the fireplace, which made for the most warm and romantic backdrop. Ashley Dariano was truly amazing to work with. She is kind, responsive, and exceptionally organized. She helped bring so many of our ideas to life and ensured everything stayed on track throughout the planning process and on the big day. We did not have a day-of planner, and our wedding still went off without a hitch, which is a huge testament to Ashley and her team. The food was spectacular, and our guests are still talking about it. The Dijon chicken was a personal favorite, and we are so glad we added the late-night French fry station. It was such a hit. We would highly recommend River Stone Manor to any couple looking for a beautiful venue, seamless execution, and an unforgettable experience

Working with Twin Dahlias was truly a highlight of our wedding planning process. We shared a few inspo photos but trusted the professionals to bring it to life and they did all that and more. During our design meetings they worked with us to really visualize how our centerpieces would look and took the consideration to help make sure the heights of our arbor would work with our height differences! Not only are they great to work with but the flowers themselves were so beautiful and it was clear they took time and care to make the most perfect arrangements.

I first met Rob at my best friends wedding when he was their photographer. His energy was the best and he made us all laugh and have such a good time. When it was my turn to get married, I thought about how important your photographer was. Not just for their experience and skills of capturing moments but who they were as a person because frankly, you spend a good portion of your wedding day with that person. My husband and I knew that Rob was the right person for that. When we went to our engagement photos, I remember both us feeling nervous because we had no idea what to do! Does anyone know how to pose for pictures?? But Rob showed up and made all the worries disappear. We had SO much fun during the entire shoot and we never once worried about how we looked. He told us exactly what to do while making us laugh in the process. Josh was in awe of how Rob picks up on what seems like a small detail but will change the whole picture. Come the big day, Rob made sure that we were on time and got all the pictures we needed but also made sure that there was good vibe throughout the entire process. I think the pictures speak for themselves but nevertheless, I geeked out when I saw our sneak peek photos because they were just amazing. I could go on and on about how amazing Rob is. He made our special day that much better!

My husband and I recently celebrated our wedding at Seven Ponds Farm, and despite some unexpected rain, it was truly the best day ever! From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the stunning beauty of the venue. The mountains, the ponds, the charming farm (and adorable goats)—it was all picture perfect. Our guests couldn't stop raving about the gorgeous setting. And even when the weather threatened to dampen our plans, the incredible team at Seven Ponds Farm had a backup plan to save the day. They seamlessly flipped our ceremony and cocktail hour so we could still get those breathtaking mountain views during our ceremony. They even brought delicious snacks and drinks from the cocktail hour to our bridal suite so we wouldn't miss out on any of the fun. We opted to have our rehearsal dinner at the venue as well as the reception, and we were not disappointed. We got many compliments on the food, and especially the fish tacos, which we didn't try during the tasting dinner, so we were pleasantly surprised! All around, everything was delicious. We also stayed at the venue from Thursday to Sunday, which definitely made the whole experience feel even more special, as it truly did feel like home while we were there. Olivia and Edvard were absolutely amazing. They were so professional, accommodating, and truly helped us every step of the way. When the power went out in the main house while we were getting ready, they were right there to help us get it back on. Their calm demeanor and quick thinking really put us at ease. We can't recommend Seven Ponds Farm enough. It's a beautiful place with an exceptional team who will make sure every detail of your wedding day is well thought out. If you're looking for a venue that's both stunning and has incredible service, look no further!
