Paul was incredible to work with. He was very communicative but laidback leading up to the wedding, which helped ease any anxiety we felt leading up to the wedding day. The week before the wedding, we had a quick phone call to discuss the details, though he didn't need any guidance from us. He advised us to be ourselves during the day, which also alleviated so much stress, and our favorite photos were the ones when we didn't have to worry about the camera. We trusted Paul throughout the entire day and are so glad we did--he knows exactly what he is doing. We were utterly blown away by the beautiful moments he captured. One of our favorite things about Paul was how lovely he was to work with. He is very kind and funny, which made us feel very comfortable throughout the day. If you are considering working with Paul for your wedding day, we enthusiastically recommend him. We are so glad we trusted him to capture such special moments. Ali & Harmon
We used Sandra as our photographer for our French Mountain Christmas wedding! Paul and Sandra were immediately responsive, professional and flexible. I'm not a big photo girl and never felt photogenic but Sandra made everything so easy with her direction and suggestions. When things didn't go as planned, she quickly jumped in with solutions. Our first touch didn't go exactly how we originally envisioned since guests started to arrive pretty early and we didn't want them to see us; she quickly came up with a backup plan that was even better than our original plan. Sandra also quickly turned into an expert seamstress when the loop on my dress broke, without hesitation she said "it's okay, we can fix it" something she absolutely did not have to do. Couldn't have been happier with our day and of course the pictures are stunning! Kaylee & Randie
Paul was fantastic! My husband and I are not great at being in front of a camera. We don’t know how to pose and can feel awkward at times. But Paul made us feel super comfortable and got us to have genuine smiles! We wanted a lot of “in the moment” shots and he was great at capturing them. 10 out of 10 would recommend! We absolutely love how his pictures came out! Erika & Dave
We were having a difficult time finding a photographer who offered an assortment of packages at a price we could afford. We found Paul Saunders Photography online, read great reviews and took a shot in the dark. We are so happy that we did! Paul's associate, Geoff, was our photographer and we are so in love with our photos. Geoff did a great job capturing the moments we requested and also some great unexpected moments from our day. Paul's communication has been clear, and prompt and all of the details of our package have been clearly defined. The value is incredible! Michelle & Eric
Paul was recommended as a preferred vendor by our wedding venue, and we immediately knew why. He was prompt in his responses with an amazing portfolio in various locations in upstate New York. His associate photographer, Todd, took both our engagement photos and our wedding photos. He was kind, personable, and somehow managed to be everywhere at our wedding in the most unobtrusive way, capturing everything. We couldn’t possibly be happier with the way our photos came out and we are so looking forward to creating our album and prints. Christina & Dylan
My name is Matt Hogan, and I had the pleasure of officiating my sister’s wedding (Katie and Tyler) at Hiland Park Country Club this past Saturday, November 9th. I’d like to recognize that the wedding photographer for the day/evening, Sandra, was nothing short of phenomenal. While weddings are a time for joy and celebration, they also come with bountiful amounts of stress leading up to the big day and in the hours leading up to the celebration. I couldn’t help but notice how instrumental of a role Sandra played throughout the day in keeping my sister, her bridesmaids, and my mother calm and on schedule, taking every ounce of pressure off them to give them an unforgettable and immaculate day. Her attention to detail, time management, skillful facilitation and experience with different poses, angles, lighting, and the variety of shots was simply spectacular. I wanted to pass this along to Paul, so he knows just how much we appreciate his team and the services they provide; and how much I personally appreciate Sandra for her efforts and the noticeable calming effect it had on my sister and mother on a day when I know their stress levels were very elevated. Her leadership and expertise and the way she handled everything was perfect. She made my sister’s big day immaculate. Matt Hogan
Highly recommend! Incredible photographer and person! We got married in Saratoga and hiring Paul as our wedding photographer was the best decision. He is incredibly talented and attentive. He remembered every family member’s name and was so personable - all while being an absolute joy to spend our day with. His work ethic is unparalleled. He is clearly dedicated to his work and to the bride/groom, family/guests. Beyond photos, he is so experienced and helpful with the planning process - his expertise is unmatched. He is a one-of-a-kind gem - we are so lucky to have him as our photographer and would absolutely recommend him in the highest regard to anyone planning a wedding. Rose & Matt
Cannot recommend Paul Saunders Photography highly enough! The level of customer service and professionalism is second to none! Paul created a custom timeline for our big day, which was such a help for me as the bride. His expertise made the process as seamless as possible, and I felt no stress or worry leading up to the big day when working with Paul. Sandra was our day of photographer, and she was incredible! She stuck to our wish list and timeline, was kind and professional, and captured some of the most special moments that will last a lifetime. 11 out of 10! Kylie & Issac
Paul was a joy to work with as we planned our wedding! He was responsive and very helpful with all of his planning tips. Michele, his business partner, photographed our event. She was professional, flexible, fun, and beyond successful at capturing moments during our wedding day! I would recommend Paul and Michele to anyone! Erica & Abe
We worked with Paul for our wedding, and he was absolutely amazing. Everyone was very impressed with his ability to take amazing pictures quickly. He is very funny and charismatic and made everyone feel very comfortable. My husband and I are so happy with how the pictures came out! Derek, who works with Paul, shot our engagement photos in Northampton and was great as well. He captured some amazing shots of our very nervous dog. I would definitely recommend Paul Saunders Photography to anyone looking for a photographer for their next event. Exceptional with everything. Jill & Jake
Professional. Affordable. Responsive. Paul and his team are everything I had hoped for! Paul is detail oriented, easy to communicate with, professional, and incredibly kind! He delivered us over 1500 beautiful pictures in a little over a month! I had the pleasure of working with Todd on our wedding day. Before the wedding, he called me to make a game plan. Todd gave his own recommendations while also giving me the opportunity to take the lead. I did not go into my wedding day knowing what poses to do with my husband and where we wanted photos taken. Todd handled everything and picked some perfect locations near our wedding venue that I would never have thought of! He also helped us create some super cute poses that made our photos timeless! Our pictures really captured the beauty of our wedding venue by the St. Lawrence River! Taylor & Todd
My husband and I could not have asked for a better photography experience with Sandra from Paul Saunders Photography! We got married in June of 2024 at Surfside on the Lake in Lake George. Sandra was amazing! We had met her the summer prior for our engagement shots (which we were also very happy with). She somehow managed to be everywhere and get amazing shots of every little detail, without ever being in the way. She was friendly and professional. Also, Paul was very responsive and generous. The portfolio of pictures we received was overwhelming - in a good way! Thousands of photos and all were amazing! Worth every penny and we cannot recommend them highly enough. Fiona & Corey
Great experience with Paul Saunders! Our experience with Paul on (and before) our wedding day was exceptional. He spent about 30 minutes on the phone with me a couple of weeks prior to the wedding to talk about my hopes for wedding photos and learn about my family. We have a blended family with seven kids, and he cared to learn about each one of them and their personalities. He also wanted to know about my siblings and parents, anyone special to us that is no longer with us. He showed great sensitivity. On the day of the wedding, Paul was on time; he may have been early, but I was busy getting ready. He bounced around in a non-intrusive way catching candid moments and offered some advice that helped capture some special moments. What was most impressive is that he was able to recall everyone's names! When directing the larger group photos, he could tell a specific kid, by name, to move one step to the left or to lower their bouquet. Paul also had a great sense of humor - he has clearly been doing this for some time. He made wedding photos fun! The pictures arrived a bit sooner than Paul had told us they would, and they came out great! The website couldn't have been easier to navigate (select favorites, order photos, albums...etc.). Incredible photographer and person. Jordan & Mike
I can't say enough great things about Paul!! I can absolutely see why he is the best rated photographer with so many yearly 'best of' awards. Every step of the way Paul guided us to ensure our day went smoothly and perfectly. There was never any feeling of being pressured, everything was what we wanted to do and how we wanted to do it. The pricing was very reasonable, not too expensive comparatively and has so many different options tiered to what you are looking for. He has some packages with albums, larger prints, different time lengths, etc. but what really stood out to me was you could simply just pay by the hour without the extra stuff if you wanted. It made making the decision very easy for me compared to other photographers. Closer to the wedding he was able to help provide us with an itinerary for when everything should be taking place, which was just so incredibly helpful to me. I was able to use that itinerary to have a stress-free, fun, memorable day that didn't feel rushed or like we were tied to taking pictures. We were able to shoot a lot of our pictures before the ceremony, which allowed us to enjoy the day making memories with our friends and family instead. Our photographer, Sandra, was just as professional and amazing as Paul. She had great visionary ideas for our photos that I couldn't have imagined! Again, there was no stress or pressure on the pictures - she very much went with the flow of what was going on. She also guided us both on different poses, different areas, lighting, etc. All around it was the best experience we could ask for and we both cannot recommend him enough. You need this photographer for your wedding! Melissa & Ryan
We were very grateful to have Paul Saunders Photography as a part of our wedding in Killington. They were very responsive and organized, which helped take a lot of the stress off our shoulders as the wedding approached. We never had to worry about whether things would be taken care of on time, and we’re given a clear outline of their process from start to finish. Their photo packages had many options for photo prints in different styles and were all a great value. We are also looking forward to receiving our Coffee Table Designer Photo Album in the future, which we will be able to go through and choose our favorite photos to fill it up with. We had Geoff as our photographer, and it was a pleasure to work with him throughout the day. He showed up on time and was very flexible with where we needed him for photos. We were able to get all of the pictures we were hoping for, and they came out wonderfully. We are very happy that we found Paul Saunders Photography and would certainly recommend them to anyone looking for a photographer for their wedding or other event. High quality and professionalism all the way through! Karyn & Jack
Paul was an amazing wedding photographer. We got married in Northampton (MA) and he drove in from upstate New York to be our photographer. He was professional with great communication. He listened to all of our ideas and tried to help make the day run smoothly in any way he could. He was friendly and humorous and made us and our wedding party feel very comfortable. He has great ideas for poses and made things feel natural. We had many family members and friends comment on how personable he was. He captured so many amazing moments of us and when we were busy, of our guests on our special day that we have enjoyed looking back on. The quality of his work is top notch! We were so impressed by our photos! We highly recommend working with Paul! Megan & Nick
Paul made the photography piece of my wedding very easy! He walked me through the process and set me up with Geoff who took amazing pictures of my wedding. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I would hire Paul (and Geoff) again in a heartbeat and have recommended him to friends I have planning their weddings. Kiaya & Taylor
As someone that is extremely camera shy, they made this the most comfortable, relaxed, and natural experience! Jason far exceeded my expectations as he was super accommodating, efficient, and extremely friendly and professional! He made something that was such a difficult task for me, easy and relaxing and very enjoyable! Even after the wedding, their communication with me and customer service has been amazing! Everything on my end has been so crazy busy with a newborn in the house but Paul has been extremely patient, responsive, and accommodating through everything! I wish it was possible to rate higher than a 5/5! Essa & Barry
Highly recommend! We hired Paul Saunders Photography for our wedding and would do it again in a heartbeat! Paul was great about getting back to us in a timely manner, with many different pricing options and packages available. Geoff from Paul's team photographed our wedding and was amazing! He arrived early and made sure to get all the photo combinations we requested. We cannot thank Paul and Geoff enough for making our wedding day a success. Sarah & Robert
They were amazing for our wedding! We went through Paul after my sister used him as well. Steph was our photographer and everyone including us kept saying how awesome she was! She got so many great photos. Paul always answered within a reasonable time through email which is great since wedding planning is so stressful! No matter how many times I sent him things throughout the planning he always replied quickly which helps with the nerves! We’re so happy with everything. Jen & Ricky
Amazing! So happy! We recently did our engagement photos and I'm so happy with how they all came out. So many amazing shots it's hard to choose my favorites. Alicia did the photo shoot and she made it so much fun and easy to be in front of the camera. Paul did a great job communicating and giving us tips, so we were prepared for our session. He also did an awesome job editing and getting them back to us so fast. We are so happy that they are doing our wedding next fall. Cat & Scott
Paul was amazing to work with from start to finish for our wedding! I am very late writing this review, but we worked with Derek, from Paul's team back in May for our wedding in Westfield and he did such a great job capturing our day. He got so many amazing shots and helped us to feel very comfortable with the whole process. He also avoided all the contrived awkward boring staged poses that we didn’t want and kept it real and authentic. Thank you!! Meg & Pat
Paul was unavailable for our wedding date (it was a short engagement), so Derek was our photographer. Both were very responsive and helpful. We outlined the schedule for the day and who/what we wanted photos of, and Derek delivered! He was flexible as our plans changed throughout the day. The photos were beautifully captured and edited – highlighting the surrounding nature while not taking away from the people/events in the photos. Would recommend to any other couple! Katie & Kaidan
It has been a great pleasure have had Paul Saunders as our wedding photographer in Boston and reception at Indian Pond Country Club. It was a rainy day full of anxiety and last-minute adjustments due to the weather and he made EVERY moment to be a magical experience. He first arrived very early to become familiar with our church and get great shots; second had a great attitude with a beautiful smile helping everyone to get to seat in their places. He even memorized the names of our wedding party to personalize even more his outstanding customer service. We loved the fact that he guided our family through every shot to get the best pictures. We were incredibly happy and honored that our unforgettable memories were captured by the hands and eyes of Paul. He is a wonderful vendor to work with and the best photographer you can ever hire: Super professional, resilient, nice, lovely, caring, and very detailed oriented with his work. If you are looking for outstanding customer service and experience on your special day, you should hire Paul. BELIEVE ME YOU WON’T REGRET IT. Karla & Anthony
Our experience with Paul was phenomenal from start to finish. Paul is such a sweet, funny, and patient man. He had us laughing throughout the entire wedding, which eased the wedding jitters. He somehow memorized each of our family member’s names, as if he had known them for years. When we received the link to our photos, I was in awe. His work is absolutely outstanding. I cannot recommend Paul enough. Please hire Paul for your special day, I promise you won’t regret it! LauraAshley & Brian
Amazing photographer I cannot say enough great things about Paul Saunders Photography. Paul was the photographer for my sister’s wedding and the minute I met him then I knew I wanted him as my photographer. Paul was extremely responsive from the beginning. He is very professional and loves what he does. He makes a phone call about the week before and answers all your questions and put my mind at ease. The morning of the wedding he shows up and instantly creates a sense of calm. His sense of humor helped lighten the mood and it felt like I had known him for months. The photos I got in return with unlimited viewing and the opportunity to save them without watermarks is very unique and unheard of with other photographers. I am so thankful I hired Paul to capture the most important day of my life, I absolutely love my photos, and will cherish them forever. Jen & Chris
Incredible!! From start to finish Paul was amazing. He understands the assignment. Mike and I wanted to be as present as possible to enjoy every moment of our big day and Paul captured the love in the room perfectly. He didn’t miss a beat and got all the important pictures. With a guest list of 251 that’s very hard to do but Paul nailed it! Every single guest complemented us on how amazing our photographer was! Jackie & Mike
Paul Saunders did an outstanding job in recommending Sandra as our wedding photographer. From start to finish, Sandra was an absolute delight to work with! Sandra's creativity truly shined through in her photographs. She captured not just moments, but emotions, turning them into timeless memories we will cherish forever. Her attention to detail was impeccable, ensuring every shot was perfect! We are not from the area, and she knew beautiful places to take photos and they came out great! Beyond her technical skill, Sandra's warm personality and enthusiasm made the entire experience enjoyable. She effortlessly blended into the festivities, becoming a part of our celebration while still maintaining her focus on capturing the essence of the day. Overall, Sandra exceeded our expectations, and we are very grateful to Paul Saunders for connecting us with such a talented photographer. We wholeheartedly recommend Sandra to anyone seeking a photographer who not only delivers stunning images but also enhances the joy of their special day. Ashley & Andrew
We just got back our wedding photos and I am so happy we chose Paul Saunders Photography! I talked to a bunch of photographers before choosing and found Paul to have the best portfolio and best value for our budget. Paul was unavailable for our date so paired us with his associate Jason who was excellent - fun, kept the stress down, listened to what we wanted and made the whole day everything we dreamed of! The communication between Paul and Jason leading up to the wedding and after was seamless and easy for us! We got previews about a week after the wedding and all of the (~1500 shots) about a month later. The only problem is I don’t know how we are going to narrow down to shots for our album but a problem I’m happy to have!! I would recommend Paul Saunders Photography to anyone who wants great photos, great value, and professionals who will make your special day even better! Kara & Patrick
While searching for photographers we came across Paul and his abundance of amazing photos and excellent reviews. We decided to work with Paul for our engagement shoot and wedding photos. Our engagement photos came back quickly, and we absolutely adore these photos. I tend to be very awkward in photos, but Paul made us feel relaxed and happy and we ended up with AMAZING photos! We can't wait to have him again as our photographer during our wedding in October! I would highly recommend having Paul as your photographer! Anna & Grant
My husband and I found Paul Saunders Photography on the Knot and asked if he was available for our May 11th wedding. Paul was very prompt to respond and while he wasn't available, one of the photographers he works with, Geoff, was available. Paul kindly sent us portfolios of other weddings Geoff had photographed previously. My husband and I were happy with the photos and decided to hire Paul and Geoff to capture our special day. Paul was always responsive to emails and sent us the next step for everything leading up to the big day and after. I was never left chasing him down. Even after the day he has been wonderful to communicate with as we waited for our photos. Both my husband and I and our guests were impressed with Geoff. The photos were beautiful, and he was amazing at being there without drawing attention to himself. I found his style to be candid and documentary. He captured the details as he found them, which I appreciated. That doesn't mean he wasn't also excellent at giving us directions for the formal photos. Most importantly, at least to me, he was very calm the entire day and went with things as they happened. I had sent him as much information ahead of time and given him a photo list of everything I wanted. He did his best to cover everything I wanted and more. I keep getting compliments on how beautiful the photos are and how great he did. And I completely agree. I have been entirely happy with my experience using Paul and Geoff. I chose to do the wedding by the hour instead of one of the packages. But Paul has been great about sending all my options should I want to add in prints or an album. In 100% honesty, I plan to print an album, but I am a photographer and an artist and want to do all that myself. We received some preview photos days after the wedding and the full collection about a month after the wedding. Kristina & Wayne
Once we decided on Paul Saunders Photography, Paul told us that “Sandra” would be our photographer as he was booked on our wedding day. Admittedly this made us nervous BUT… were we ever surprised! Sandra was so easy to communicate with prior to the wedding; we texted just a couple of times and then spoke on the phone so that she could gather important information about our “who” and “what’s”. On the morning of our wedding she showed up all smiles and greeted everyone by name. I was very impressed and immediately comfortable with her. She had a friendly and professional demeanor that made us feel relaxed. It was quickly evident that she had done a wedding a time or two before. We just received a sneak peek of the photos she took, and we are now soooo excited to see the rest!!!! Her suggestions while taking the pictures worked out so well! The photos are beautiful-I’m in love with all of them!!!! Trust me on this, you just can’t go wrong working with this professional photography company. From what I understand, they’ve been around for a while now and I can easily see why. Paul, thank you for sending Sandra to our wedding as she is amazing. Tina & John
Must-have Photographer!! We had the pleasure of booking Paul for our wedding 6/1/24 at Belhurst Castle in Geneva. From the very beginning, we knew we would be in good hands with Paul. We booked roughly a year in advance, and he provided detailed explanations of the various photo packages, his personal recommendations, and demonstrated flexibility by tailoring the experience to make it "ours". The week of the wedding, Paul truly showed his value, taking stress off our plate. He was thorough in his preparation while always being considerate of our time. His familiarity with our venue made things easy for us as he already had recommendations for family photos, wedding party pictures, and even our first look! By the day of the wedding - he knew our parties as well as our direct family members by name. He directed the crowd while always remaining friendly and professional. He made sure ALL our guests felt included throughout the night. He eased our day-of anxieties by providing comic relief at just the right time and had all our guests laughing during photos. He considered the little things and made sure to capture moments of memories that we will treasure for life. One of the first comments we received from SEVERAL of our guests was "Where did you find your photographer?!" We truly couldn't have been happier with our experience. Kerstin & Tanner
Beautiful photographs, great value, and so easy to work with. My husband and I are not very photogenic so we were looking for a photographer who could help capture our whole wedding experience and make us feel at ease and we were not disappointed! We got married at Full Moon Resort and Paul was so easy to communicate with and understood what we were looking for. We worked with Sandra on his team, and she was so great the day of the wedding! She took so many great photos of the details and of guests, and these were just things I never thought to have the photographer take but I’m so glad she did! We ended up printing and sending our guests the photos of themselves with our thank you cards, and I loved that we were able to do that because the photos of them smiling were just too good not to share. We shared a list of family shots I wanted so that my in-laws couldn’t dictate too much. We kept on schedule and got all the photos we needed and wanted without any hiccups! The packages that were offered were unlike any other vendor. Great value, great service, and most importantly great photos! Thank you to Paul and Sandra for helping to capture our special day forever. Anastasia & Joe
Thank you very much, Paul, for making this process from start to finish go so smoothly, and please thank Todd from my whole family!!! He was amazing, super to work with, and did an awesome job!! We have wonderful picture memories from Wolf Oak Acres we will cherish forever. I recommended you to a friend who also used Todd as her photographer and was delighted with everything. Taylor & Tom
We had our engagement shoot yesterday and I would be remiss if I did not take a moment to express our gratitude working with Sandy. For both of us - we realized the last time we ever had a professional photo taken was our yearbook photos. Firstly she was incredibly accommodating when we had to reschedule. Sandy was so warm, provided thoughtful direction and made us instantly comfortable. She totally embraced the preserve, and we tried a variety of backdrops — the possibilities we took advantage of were beyond my initial expectations of what we could get from the location! We truly had fun. And we’ll look back on this as one of our favorite days that took us both out of our comfort zone and became an adventure in itself. Sandy brought out the tender and the silly moments between us and we’re so excited to see the photos and frame them all over the house. We look forward to working with you and your team this year!!! Jenn & Kyle
I had the pleasure of working with Paul as our wedding photographer, and I must say that he exceeded all expectations. From the very beginning, Paul was incredibly accommodating and took charge of coordinating the photo shoots and events for our special day. He displayed excellent organizational skills and made sure everything ran smoothly. Not only did Paul capture beautiful moments throughout the day, but he also went above and beyond his role as a photographer. He took it upon himself to hold onto important items, ensuring that nothing was misplaced or forgotten. He also choreographed the pre-ceremony and reception, making sure that everything flowed seamlessly. Paul's professionalism and attention to detail were truly remarkable. He made us feel at ease and comfortable, which resulted in stunning photographs. He was not only amazing with my husband and me but also with our guests. He interacted with everyone in a friendly and approachable manner, making the photography experience enjoyable for all. I cannot imagine having anyone else by our side on our special day. Paul's dedication, talent, and exceptional service made our wedding day complete. I highly recommend Paul as a photographer for any event. He will not only capture beautiful moments but also go above and beyond to ensure your day is unforgettable. 5 stars is not enough for Paul. Ronda & John
Honestly, Paul Saunders was fantastic from start to finish. I could email or call him and get a response within minutes or a couple hours. He was funny, kind, and really knew how to put people at ease. I was quite nervous for my ceremony, not to mention I'm camera shy, and Paul not only got me comfortable with the camera within minutes but went above and beyond by helping direct my family and bridal party! He was directing people to move decorations to better spots, ran around finding my shoes for me, and made every single person in the room feel happy and comfortable. Paul took a great deal of photos, and I absolutely love them. The clarity, the editing, everything was kept natural, but beautiful. He caught wonderful candid moments of my guests, friends, and family. I'm forever grateful for how wonderful he made my wedding. I had several guests ask me for his business information so they could either book him themselves or recommend him to relatives planning on getting married. Thank you so much Paul for making our day perfect. I hope you get as much business as you want! Worth the money. Fantastic person. Hannah & Clayton
We went with Paul Saunders Photography because of their excellent reviews, and we couldn't be more pleased! Derek was our photographer, and he did a great job capturing both the posed and candid shots. It was important to me that the photos looked natural and not "over-edited", and Paul delivered there as well. I would highly recommend this company as they are first-class with everything. Alana & Pat
We hired Paul Saunders photography for our wedding at Pat’s Barn. We had Michele, his associate, as our photographer. I cannot say enough good things about her and the photos we got back. Michele knows what looks good and what doesn’t, she was very informative, and amazingly patient. The price is unbeatable for everything that you get in packages. Paul was very responsive via email after the wedding and was such an important part of our big day! We received our photos back in a timely manner. Would 10/10 recommend! Zahra & Anthony
Working with Paul Saunders Photography at Megan and David's wedding was an absolute highlight. As a wedding filmmaker, finding a photography team that complements your workflow on the day of the wedding is priceless, and Paul Saunders Photography did just that. Their professionalism and seamless approach to capturing the day were remarkable. They have an intuitive sense of positioning and timing, which allowed us to capture both our mediums without stepping on each other's toes. This kind of teamwork is essential in a live event setting, and they nailed it. What really stood out was their friendly demeanor and open communication throughout the day. It felt like working alongside old friends, which made for a relaxed and productive atmosphere. Their stunning shots are a testament to their skill and dedication, perfectly capturing the essence of the day. I highly recommend Paul Saunders Photography to any couple looking for a photographer who is not only immensely talented but also a joy to work with. Their ability to work in harmony with other vendors ensures your wedding day is captured flawlessly from every angle. Novél Cinema.
Responsive. Reliable. Beautiful! From my first interactions with Paul via email leading up to our wedding, to meeting and working with our photographer Sheila for our wedding, there is nothing negative to say about this business. Everyone was so friendly and responsive. It was absolutely seamless to work with Paul. He was even able to help put together a day of timeline for us to ensure plenty of time for photos. Sheila was so calm and level-headed on the day of our wedding. She was encouraging and creative, and we got so many beautiful photos. Absolutely wonderful experience all around! Brianna & Jake
Everything we could ask for in a wedding photographer, and at a great price! We got married at The Sablewood at Highview Springs and loved working with Paul Saunders Photography. Paul was incredibly responsive to all our questions. While Paul was already photographing another wedding, we booked with Paul’s assistant, Veronica. We spoke to Veronica about 10 days before the wedding and were instantly impressed with her professionalism and sincerity. She helped us create a timeline for our day and a list of family photos to take. Her photos turned out incredible and were a great mix of posed vs candid. She captured the day beautifully and we are so excited to always have her photos to look back on to remember the day. Amazing experience! Sarah & Chris
Extraordinary work. We got married in Norwood and Derek was so personable, so helpful! He caught some wonderful pictures during our day! He was also very accommodating and kind to everyone. He made sure to get all the candid and authentic moments we wanted! He is a phenomenal photographer! Pahola & Connor
Excellent Wedding Photography Experience. We had Paul's assistant Michele photograph our wedding on September 16th. Paul was very responsive, and his packages were well outlined on his website, with our additional questions quickly answered by him. Michele did an OUTSTANDING job! She was super nice, efficient, and was great at getting all of the shots we had asked for, while also giving us the space to fully enjoy our day. A few days later we received some sample photos, and they turned out amazing! We are looking forward to seeing the rest of the photos and know that they will be perfect reminders of our wedding day! We highly recommend Michele and Paul Saunders Photography. Jen & Ryan
Amazing Wedding Photographer. I reached out to Paul when my fiancé and I were planning our wedding and he was so responsive and helpful through the entire process. He always answered our emails so promptly and Geoff, our photographer, spent quite a bit of time with us to go over the game plan and the kinds of photo's that we wanted. On our wedding day, Geoff was there early snapping 1000's of pictures and capturing every little detail! He was so great and easy to work with! We got our photos back last week and we were amazed at the quality and the number of pictures that were shared with us. He captured our day absolutely perfectly. I would highly recommend Geoff and Paul Saunders Photography! Reyvan & Dustin
Amazing experience. From the start correspondence is quick, professional, and easy. Paul and his team truly make the connection with you, so they know exactly what you want from your photos; they make your day as smooth and special as you want it to be. Our photographer Sandy was especially wonderful to work with, by the end of the day she was one of the family and the proof is in the photos. We cannot thank Paul Saunders Photography enough for their amazing attention to detail and outstanding customer service. They made our wedding perfect with so many beautiful pictures. Jenn & Andy
Wonderful experience! It was absolutely lovely to work with Paul on our special day. He made everything so wonderful and took away so much stress with his kind, positive attitude and how organized he was. I don’t live locally so he was recommended by a vendor in the area, and he lived up to the reputation that preceded him. His photos came back amazing, and he made sure not to miss a thing. I would recommend Paul to anyone in need of a photographer for their special day or any event honestly. He was very responsive, helpful, and punctual. He knew exactly what to capture and just made the entire process stress free. Very happy with the service and our decision! 10/10! Kayla & Anthony
Paul was the most amazing photographer we could have chosen for our special day. He was calm and easygoing, and very genuine, which put us at ease. He has a wonderful eye for detail and made me feel beautiful, even though in general I can be overly critical of my appearance. We had three different locations for photographs (ceremony at the church, our engagement site for our first newlywed photos, and the reception). Paul was happy to go to each and find the most stunning shots of us. He captured touching moments during the ceremony and the reception. When we got our preview photos, and then the full package of about 1000 photos, we were pleasantly surprised that we loved them ALL. Looking at the photos, you can feel the absolute joy everyone felt on our wedding day. We feel so lucky to have had Paul as our photographer as we now have so many spectacular photos to help us relive our favorite day. Jeni & Stephen
We had a wonderful experience with Paul Saunders Photography. Geoff was our photographer, and he did a great job. Our pictures came out incredible and I’m thankful I found them on The Knot. Paul was very friendly and responsive to any question or inquiries we had and that was very comforting. Would absolutely recommend as they are exceptional. Hollie & Eric
We just got married this past Saturday and I must just say, Kristy and Paul were fantastic! Kristy is very easy going, personable, and friendly! My family and my wife’s family absolutely loved her! Will definitely recommend them to everyone I know! Thank you and we cannot wait to see the pictures of my beautiful bride and I! Edit: This morning, just two days after our wedding, Paul contacted me with preview pictures and I’m IN LOVE. I cannot thank them enough for capturing the best day of my life! Anthony & Erin
You need Paul at your wedding. He is professional, organized, funny, kind, and so helpful. He was so responsive to all the emails. The week of the wedding, the phone call with him was so helpful with discussing what pictures we wanted and the timeline of the day. The pictures he took were stunning. All our guests commented on how great he was throughout the night. He perfectly captured our day in Lake George, and I cannot thank him enough. Rachel & Zach
We just had our engagement photos done with Sandra from Paul Saunders Photography team and we couldn't be happier with the experience and the results! My fiancé and I had never done a photo shoot before, and Sandra made us feel at ease right away. She gave us just enough direction so we knew what to do and could be ourselves. She was also very flexible - we showed up to our first scheduled session and it immediately started to rain. She was able to reschedule us for the very next day. We were also very impressed with how fast we got the photos back - only two weeks! Now I can send our save-the-dates out earlier than I originally expected. We are looking forward to Sandra photographing our wedding next year. Fiona & Corey
I cannot speak highly enough of Paul Saunders! If I could give him more than 5 stars, I would. Not only is he professional and extremely talented, but he is really fun to work with and made our entire wedding day fun for everyone involved. He had everyone truly smiling and laughing during photos. He has an incredible eye for photo location and lighting. He is extremely knowledgeable, and a truly exceptional photographer. In addition to his talent, he was very responsive from start to finish, from assisting in deciding photo locations, helping us create a wedding timeline that worked best for us, working with other vendors, and helping us design and create our wedding album. I am so glad that Paul was our photographer, and we could not be happier with our photos. Thank you so much Paul! Julia & Mitch
Paul was such a pleasure to work with throughout my wedding planning process. He is the vendor I communicated the most with as he was helpful with everything starting from vendor recommendations all the way to the planning of the day. I always felt at ease knowing that I have Paul in my corner. He was always prompt with his emails and answered all my questions along the way. This is how you want your vendor to be!!! On the day of our wedding, we worked with Sandra who was very professional and a great person to work with. Incredibly nice and kind to everyone. The pictures came out amazing and she was able to capture the vibe of the day which is what I wanted. I know that years down the road I can look through the pictures and relive the day as it was!!! Thank you so very much!!! Amira & Mike
There is a reason why Paul Saunders Photography has so many 5-star reviews! He was highly communicative from the get-go, from talking to us about the best wedding package to hammering out the final details. We worked with Geoff who photographed our wedding in Stowe, and he was great to work with. We took some location shots, and Geoff enthusiastically ran with our ideas. The beautifully edited preview shots we received from Paul just hours after our wedding were breathtaking! I would highly recommend Paul and his team to everyone! Ashley & Julian
Paul Is Absolutely Amazing. Paul has such a great personality and really brought ease to our special day. He knew how to get the best reactions, even from our family members that never smile at the camera. Great guy to work with and made everything easy for me and my bride. Very much on top of our schedule and communicated very well with us before, during, and after our wedding and reception. He made sure we got to enjoy our day and we didn’t miss our cocktail hour. He also knew Hiland Park Country Club very well and all the best places for photos. We will be recommending him to everyone we know who’s wedding planning as he is amazing. Jon & Allie
Last minute but excellent. I had a simple backyard religious wedding and initially was on the fence about getting a photographer, because it was a simple and last minute (six-weeks to plan) event. I looked on WeddingWire to see what was out there just in case something good popped up and reached out. Paul was very responsive with good reviews, good information, good rates, transparent, and had an opening. It was really smooth and stress-free to book someone from his team; Jenn was assigned to my event which was on a Sunday. She was lovely. Timely, professional, culturally sensitive, easy to work with and the pictures came out just as we wanted. Really grateful to Paul and Jenn for stepping up at the very last minute for me and my now husband. Sundus & Nizam
Working with Paul was an absolute joy. We booked Paul over a year before the wedding, yet he always kept in contact. I had many questions which he answered promptly and made planning a breeze. On wedding week, he focused solely on our wedding. He made it a point to understand our crazy family dynamic and all our names. My family and friends all raved about how great he was. Paul captured every moment of our wedding so beautifully and had over a 1200 photos edited and back to us within a month! We can not thank him enough, a must hire vendor! Katie & Nick
Affordable and Professional! After spending a lot of time looking for the perfect photographer, my now husband and I landed on Paul Saunders' team. The reviews were spectacular and true to our own experience. We had a set schedule of how pictures would be taken beforehand so we knew exactly what to expect. Our thoughts about what we wanted were taken into account but when we weren't sure what would look good, due to not being professionals ourselves, Michele, our photographer, was able to lend her expertise. We even took some night photoscthat came out very well! The price did not blow our budget, but I would recommend Paul Saunders to anyone, even with an unlimited budget. Michele made us feel at ease during the whole event and we knew she had everything well in hand. I felt I could make suggestions on pictures I wanted but did not have to worry if I let go of the reigns. Chloe & Jason
Paul had Geoff capture our wedding. Paul has been so responsive and helpful since the day we contacted him for photography services. The prices were honest and true and for the amount of pictures and beautiful touches, you can’t beat that! I am so over the moon with what we received and I will forever recommend Paul and his services. We received our photos before the time frame expected. Geoff was very flexible and captured every detail and important moment even the random moments through the event/night. I HIGHLY recommend Paul and his team. Thank you so much again!!! Cassi & Michael
Paul was honestly just the best. He is so professional, kind, and funny. He was incredibly kind and helpful throughout the entire planning process, especially with the timeline of the wedding day. His phone call the week of the wedding was just great and so helpful. We are so excited to get our pictures from our wedding day as we know they are just going to be incredible. Throughout the entire night and even the next day our guests kept talking about how great Paul was and how funny he was. Paul is just amazing, and we are so lucky that he was there to capture our special day. Highly recommend that your hire Paul! Rachel & Zach
Thank you so much Paul for all you did at our wedding. We are seriously blown away by your talent, as we love every single photo! They are memories that will last a lifetime. Also, you proficiency shone that day as everything went so smoothly, which we 100% owe to you; keeping everything in check and on time so we got to enjoy ourselves and not miss our party. We are still in awe of the whole experience and thank you for making our day unforgettable. Victoria & Michael
We would highly recommend Paul Saunders Photography! Paul was very responsive and offered excellent options for photo packages. He also helped map out our wedding day timeline perfectly. Our photographer Michele was a joy to work with on the day of our wedding. She captured all our special moments, and our pictures are absolutely beautiful! We are so happy with everything. Arielle & Dominic
We just wanted to thank you for a PHENOMENAL job well done at our wedding this past Saturday. From interacting with our wedding party and guests, to taking photos of Dumpling, to accommodating my mobility limitations, to bringing an incredible energy to our afternoon/evening -- thank you from the bottom of our hearts! You truly went above and beyond for us; I cannot express just how much we appreciated having you there. We are so excited to see all the photos -- I'm sure they will be phenomenal! Caroline & Matt
Picture perfect! We hired Veronica from Paul Saunders Photography. Veronica and Paul were absolutely wonderful to work with. Paul was very responsive to any and all questions we had prior to the big day. The month of our event, Paul helped us establish a “rough draft” timeline for our wedding day. A week prior to the big day, Veronica called to introduce herself and helped make the timeline more exact based on what photos we wanted. The day of Veronica was at the venue and ready to go when we arrived. She did an amazing job helping us pose, when necessary, but her focus was on capturing the moment in a more natural, candid way, which she did beautifully! We had a very large wedding party, just over 20 people, and Veronica did a great job directing people during group shots and made sure things were running on time! When a wedding party member was running late, Veronica was very flexible and took care of any and all photos that she could in the meantime, keeping us on schedule and calm. Veronica was also extremely professional, respectful, and worked collaboratively with our videographer, who she met the day of! We highly recommend Veronica from Paul Saunders!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you! Natalie & Kevin
Geoff was amazing to work with and all our guests loved him too. He is very easygoing and made our pictures look amazing! I would recommend him (and Paul) for your special day. They are super-easy to work with and made everything perfect. Christy & Gareth
We are extremely happy with our experience working with Paul Saunders Photography with Todd as our photographer! Leading up to the big day, Paul and Todd were very organized and responsive, which made planning a breeze and not at all stressful. Todd went above and beyond on the day, he stopped at our venue in the morning to make sure he had good settings for the difficult lighting and was completely on board with everything we wanted to do and try for poses and locations. He got pictures of everything we asked for and a ton of shots I wouldn’t have thought of. During the ceremony, he was very out of the way and quiet, so I didn’t even notice him moving around or taking any pictures, but he got shots of everything and everybody from all different angles. Todd was very flexible when the rain made the day a little bit more difficult and was able to get amazing shots inside and even monitored the weather throughout the reception to let us know when we had a break in the rain to get some outdoor shots. We are extremely happy with all the final pictures, literally every single picture is clear and in focus, with good lighting and multiple shots and angles to get different expressions. We could not be happier with the outcome. We chose the silver package that comes with enlargements and a full photo album, and I think the price for the experience and the final product was well worth it! Highly highly recommend working with this photographer!! Sam & Jon
Great photographer. Paul was very responsive throughout the planning and post-wedding process. All of the information provided pre-wedding was thorough and clear. Photos were returned to us in a timely manner via flash-drives and link. The online link was easily sharable to many people we sent it to. We got married at Knotting Hill Farm and our photographer Samantha was great to work with! She has an easy-going and organized personality. She was always right there with you to capture each special moment, blending in with the guests. Samantha was efficient in getting our photos captured in a timely, low-stress manner so we were able to enjoy our day. Brittney & Josh
Excellent team! Had a fantastic experience with Paul Saunders and his photographer Steph. They made the experience easy, were super professional, and provided excellent photos of our wedding at a reasonable price. Paul was very communicative via email and always responded within 24 hours. Steph was amazing! She was very friendly and creative with how to use the venue. She had amazing ideas! Haley & Louis
Amazing Experience! Paul Saunders Photography was an excellent choice! Paul was responsive, thoughtful, and professional! Paul listened to our vision for our wedding day and was able to provide thoughtful and professional advice about organizing our day/time, so we were able to most importantly enjoy our wedding day. He connected us with his partner Laura, who was a fabulous photographer. As soon as she arrived, she began working. She worked quickly and efficiently and was organized. She asked for a detailed list before our wedding day to make sure we got all the group pictures we wanted. She was able to gather large groups in a timely manner and due to this, we were able to enjoy our cocktail hour! Laura took many candid shots, which was our request, and was proactive throughout the evening. Paul and Laura are well experienced with weddings and were so amazing to work with! Lauren & Shawn
Excellent photographer! We lucked out in finding Paul, whose engaging personality kept things light and fun throughout the day. He has a strong passion for what he does and made things so much easier on us throughout the planning process. Our wedding was postponed twice due to the pandemic, and Paul was understanding and accommodating throughout such a hectic process during an uncertain time. He was quick to respond to any questions we had along the way, and when our wedding day arrived, he was wonderful to us and our guests. We couldn't have chosen a better photographer! Amanda & Mark
We are so happy that we hired Paul Saunders Photography to capture our wedding day. From the moment we chose them, Paul was awesome and was very responsive and would respond within hours. He was so helpful by making a wedding day timeline for us to help us with timing and when we were going to do our first look and family pictures. For our wedding day, our photographer was Steph, and she was the best! She was exceptionally reliable and was the perfect photographer to capture our day. What we loved most about Steph was that she got all the shots we wanted and was so calm and patient with our wedding party. I would highly recommend Paul Saunders Photography and ask for Steph to be your wedding day photographer! Jenn & Merry
Absolutely Amazing! Working with Paul and Veronica has been an absolute dream. They made everything so easy and helped to make our day so special. On more than once occasion Paul helped to connect us with other vendors and was so supportive of our vision. Even with Covid, Paul was so understanding and flexible with all of the changes that had to me made. We absolutely loved working with Veronica on the day of. All of our family was impressed with her, and she was so accommodating to any ideas or last-minute photos requests. Overall it was an absolute treasure to work with them and I would recommend them over and over again. You will not be sorry! Alyssa & Joe
Wedding day photographer, highly recommend! Michele was wonderful to work with! She was very sweet and flexible. I loved her creative ideas, and she knew exactly what she was doing. There were points where I didn’t even notice she was there taking pictures, but she was always present and capturing every single special moment. She was exactly what we wanted on our special day. Michele was great to work with and everyone enjoyed her professionalism and positivity. The photos she captured were absolutely beautiful. She made us feel comfortable and helped the day run smoothly. I highly recommend Michele or anyone on Paul Saunders’ team as the communication was phenomenal and I truly had the best experience. I cannot stop looking at my photos! Thank you, Paul and Michele. Rachel & Nick
Simply amazing!! Paul’s professional, responds hastily(which is great when you're a nervous bride!), and accommodating! Paul's coworker Sandra was the photographer who actually shot our wedding. She was just amazing. So kind, so easy going. She did not make us feel uncomfortable at any point. We have three kids and one of them is only two years old so that is a challenge in itself! She was patient and kind. After the formal pictures, she fit in so well at our wedding... I almost would have mistaken her for a guest. Thank you entirely Paul and Sandra! We absolutely LOVE our pictures. Chelsey & Cailden
Amazing team! First off, Michele did an amazing job capturing our special day. I cannot say enough great things about her. Communication leading up to the day was tough which was partly my fault. Time got away from me during the pandemic, but once we did make contact she made me feel so comfortable in knowing she would get the photos we were looking for. When picking a vendor we really wanted someone who didn't overly edit the photos and that is exactly what we got. The photos turned out AMAZING! Michele knew the right angles and the right lighting for every single photo. My husband really didn't want to spend a lot of time taking photos during cocktail hour/reception, we hadn't seen some of our guests in over a year. Michele really took that into account, she was very quick and efficient when she took us away for our pictures and also our family groups. She gave us a lot of guidance and really made us feel comfortable in front of the camera. I would highly recommend Paul and his team. Paul has been checking in since the wedding and we actually received our photos a lot quicker than we anticipated. Jordan & Andrew
Exceptional to work with! We used Paul Saunders for engagement and wedding pictures. Paul did the engagement photo shoot, and the pictures were absolutely beautiful. Paul was so easy to work with and beyond accommodating. Paul was very professional and courteous. He was very quick responding to my questions. There were so many changes that had to be made due to COVID, but Paul made it all so easy. Paul was not able to be the photographer for our new date but said Heather was available. At first, I was a little worried because I was only familiar with Paul. Heather was amazing! She was so easy to work with and was always right there for all the moments that needed to be captured. We did 2 weddings for my daughter that day, brunch, and dinner, for separate groups of family and friends. Heather was there for 10 hours and was still full of energy and enthusiasm at the very end. I highly recommend Heather and Paul Saunders Photography as they are exceptional! Karen (mother of the bride)
With our crazy ideas and do none of the cliche stuff and Paul was our guy! From our first phone call we told Paul our theme was “Biggest Party of our Lives” and Paul knew exactly where to go from there. During COVID he kept in regular contact and assured us he would be flexible. We were lucky enough to have our wedding in October. A few days before we reviewed plans and the day of Paul clicked away. He is not intrusive, does not do forced shots, but lets you be yourself - which on a day where everyone expects you to be perfect and smile was refreshing!!! He was great with our pup and the kids who were in the wedding. He took our ideas and ran with them and truly made our day easy and perfect. We are now making final selections for our photos and Paul is easy as ever to work with. The final product truly captured the day and allows us to relive our best day. We would 100% recommend Paul ... if you want an authentic photographer who is pure talent - Paul is for you!! Ashley & Mike
Paul will capturing major moments. His work ethic is astounding. It is rare to have wedding guests rave about the photographer to the bride & groom, but we have had numerous instances of that! He is talented, fun, calming, and much more. Everything you could ever want in a wedding photographer. If you want to have a good time and not worry on your wedding day - hire him! Amy & Joey
Excellent photographer! We lucked out in finding Paul, whose engaging personality kept things light and fun throughout the day. He has a strong passion for what he does and made things so much easier on us throughout the planning process. Our wedding was postponed twice due to the pandemic, and Paul was understanding and accommodating throughout such a hectic process during an uncertain time. He was quick to respond to any questions we had along the way, and when our wedding day arrived, he was wonderful to us and our guests. We couldn't have chosen a better photographer! Amanda & Mark
Vibes & energy were immaculate. I really can't put into words the amazing work Paul did for my husband and I. We got married at Hunter Mountain and it was 20 degrees and misting on the mountain top for our ceremony! Paul did not bat an eye when he laid on wet grass to get the perfect shots and was so energetic and positive the entire time. The pictures are absolutely breath taking. We can't wait to see Paul again when he shoots my sister’s wedding in October! Emily & Chris
Paul captured the most beautiful, happy moments of the entire day - our pictures are gorgeous! He is a true professional that ensures everyone is relaxed and laughs on their big day. Paul has such a calming presence and worked well with the venue and DJ to conduct our schedule flawlessly. He was also flexible and stuck with us when we had to reschedule our wedding due to the pandemic. We received our photos exactly when he said we would, less than two weeks after the wedding. We HIGHLY recommend Paul Saunders as your photographer! Courtney & Ray
One of the Best! Paul did a great job as our photographer! He has a great energy and a goal to get you as many high-quality images as possible during your time with him. Paul captured our different skin tones in all lighting and that is a big reason we went with him. No one looked too washed or too dark and his prices are competitive and a great value. Paul also does a phone call a few days before the wedding which gave him a head start with names, ceremony/reception setup, and what kind of images we were looking for. He has a great sense of humor and did a wonderful job focusing on us and avoiding any outside distractions and keeping all our wedding party focused, looking good and in correct positions. I would recommend Paul and his team to anyone looking for a photographer for their wedding. Tasha & Christian
Would highly recommend booking Paul for your special event! We booked Paul for our wedding and had such a wonderful experience with him. We were supposed to get married on March 21, 2020, but due to the pandemic we were forced to postpone very last minute. Paul was so flexible and made every adjustment in order to accommodate our new wedding date. Every time I had a question or concern Paul was right there to answer my email promptly and professionally. The day of our wedding, Paul worked his magic so my husband and I could be stress-free and just enjoy our day. He worked astonishingly hard to capture all the pictures we wanted with our family and friends. Paul also had many helpful tips and suggestions to perfect the more important shots. I have nothing but wonderful things to say about our experience with Paul. We are so happy to have had him as our photographer for our wedding and would highly recommend anyone to book Paul for their wedding as well! You can’t go wrong with him! Kathryn & Jason
Paul was amazing! We had initially booked Paul as our wedding photographer and were eager to have him do our engagement shoot as well! He recommended places where we could have our shoot take place and after having gotten our photos back, we were so glad we listened to his recommendation! The entire time during our shoot, he was engaging, funny and you could absolutely tell how much passion he has for his work. We even sincerely appreciated his compliments about the engagement ring and immediately knew that he understood just what sort of vibe and feeling we wanted to express through our photos and what we hope to achieve with our future wedding photos as well. We absolutely cannot recommend him enough and we hope anyone reading this gets in touch with Paul as soon as they can! Audrey & Jorge
Quick response & extremely easy to work with! I would highly recommend Paul as your photographer. Unfortunately, due to COVID restrictions we did have to reschedule our wedding from 2020 and then end up fully cancelling due to the unknown, but during all of it, Paul was nothing short of professional and responsive. He was very willing to work with us and help us the best he could and understood what situation we were in. He includes an entire tab on his website with answers to any COVID questions you may have and that is something I haven't seen any other business do and it was extremely helpful! His work is absolutely amazing as you can see on his website, and I fully wish we were able to see his finished product with pictures of our own. I highly recommend Paul for any wedding or any event in general! Sarah & John
Where to begin?! Being a bride planning to get married during the pandemic was a challenge- Paul was one of the first vendors I hired. I felt that we would be in great hands with him, and I was right. He was so flexible and helpful throughout my planning process (that included several venue changes!) Paul was always a calm voice of reason for me during my wedding planning!! The day of the wedding Paul was very punctual and got amazing shots of me and my girls getting ready. He also got some amazing photos of my now husband and his groomsmen. The ceremony church photos are gorgeous, and the reception photos really capture the fun night that it was. I should add, we had a huge bridal party of about 30 (yes you read that right, 15 groomsmen and 15 bridesmaids) including some very rowdy groomsmen. Paul had such a great way of rallying the troops and getting everyone together for photos effortlessly. He was also a huge help in between the ceremony and reception keeping everyone on schedule so we could head to cocktail hour. He is a pro at what he does. Something really special that my mom pointed out is that Paul had such a great way of making sure he got important photos of relatives- for example he knew exactly who my mom’s siblings were & to pull them for photos with my grandpa without her even having to ask. She was so thrilled with this, and it really made her day. She will cherish those photos forever!! Paul, we can't thank you enough. My family and friends have been raving about you- you did a phenomenal job, and our photos are stunning!!! Kelsey & Tim
10/10 -- Would hire Paul! While my sister didn't ultimately get to have her wedding because of COVID concerns, we were so amazed by Paul's professionalism, we wanted to make sure that everyone knew we would 1000% recommend Paul Saunders Photography. Thank you so much Paul for everything! Kait & Nick
My fiancé and I booked Paul as our wedding photographer after speaking on the phone with him during our first "meeting", and we could not be happier with our decision. Even before we met him, we were impressed by how responsive he was to our emails and questions, and also by the number of positive reviews he had. We met him in person when he took our engagement photos. We had our photos taken outside in a parkin January, and despite the bitter cold weather, it was a very enjoyable experience. Paul was extremely polite and professional, and at the same time very personable and easy to work with. He did an amazing job with our photos, and we are thrilled to have him as our photographer on our wedding day. We are very much looking forward to working with him again! Michelle & Eric
Absolutely amazing! Paul was phenomenal from start to finish! Booking was super-easy, and he has so many packages to choose from! Week of the wedding we had a phone meeting to finalize details which was a breeze. Day of I did not have to think ONCE about my photos. He thought of absolutely everything! Remembered everyone that was important to get photos with, posed us beautifully! I cannot recommend his services enough! Beth & Frankie
Perfect experience! My husband and I, as well as our family, loved having Paul around for our small wedding ceremony. We hired him for four hours and he absolutely made the best of that time. The quality of his photos are fantastic. He is very attentive to detail and helped us create photos that every member of our family was pleased with--including those of us who don't consider ourselves photogenic! Paul handled all the arrangements with great patience and brought humor to the occasion besides. He was also very safe and respectful, keeping his mask on at all times, and respecting our choice to have a socially distanced wedding ceremony whenever possible. He got our photos to us to share within a few days of our wedding, despite the impending holidays. I would highly recommend Paul to everyone looking for a fantastic photographer and person! Colette & Sam
Flexible, professional, talented & personable! Overall fantastic. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Paul was an absolute pleasure to work with. Our wedding changed multiple times due to COVID-19, including a significant change of date and location. Paul was both responsive and extremely flexible throughout the challenging circumstances. In a time filled with uncertainty, he was accommodating and helpful. Not only was Paul a pleasure to work with prior to the wedding. The day of the wedding he was personable with guests, kind, funny, and a detailed professional. He sent us our pictures within three weeks and they are amazing. Dina & Dean
We had originally hired Paul Saunders Photography for our upcoming 2021 wedding. Paul was incredibly responsive and helpful during the evaluation process. The experience and professionalism of Paul was outstanding. The flexibility of the packages he offers, which is a great value for the impressive sample albums he was able to share, gave me the utmost confidence in Paul Saunders Photography. Once hired, Paul fielded many planning questions and gave great perspective from his vast experience in the industry. Not long after hiring Paul, we had to move our wedding to accommodate a delay in my fiancé’s deployment schedule. Paul was very understanding and worked to accommodate our new date to the best of his ability. Unfortunately, he wasn’t available, and it didn't work out for us to stick with Paul for our rescheduled date. Even though we weren't able to have Paul and his team photograph our wedding, his focus on the customer and importance and personalization he puts into planning for your day was exemplary. I will most definitely keep Paul Saunders Photography in mind for future events and would definitely feel comfortable recommending him to friends and family based on the interactions we had. Erin & Chris
What fantastic job by Paul. He gets everything done that he says he would in a timely manner and made everything crazy fun. We didn’t miss anything AND he takes outrageous pictures! Nicolette & CJ
Paul was a pleasure to work with. Even through COVID, he was flexible, supportive, responsive, and professional. He helped keep our day on track and moving forward and we didn’t miss anything. He was lighthearted and fun and reminded us to treasure each moment and enjoy the day as it came. Our pictures are breathtaking and so beautiful. Anyone would be lucky to work with him :) Danielle & Mark
The Photographer you NEED for your Big Day! To say Paul is amazing is an understatement! We sought out to find someone who would run with our crazy ideas and do none of the cliche stuff and Paul was our guy! From our first phone call we told Paul our theme was “Biggest Party of our Lives” and Paul knew exactly where to go from there. During COVID he kept in regular contact and assured us he would be flexible. We were lucky enough to have our wedding in October. A few days before we reviewed plans and the day of Paul clicked away. He is not intrusive, does not do forced shots, but lets you be yourself - which on a day where everyone expects you to be perfect and smile was refreshing!!! He was great with our pup and the kids who were in the wedding. He took our ideas and ran with them and truly made our day easy and perfect. We are now making final selections for our photos and Paul is easy as ever to work with. The final product truly captured the day and allows us to relive our best day. We would 100% recommend Paul ... if you want an authentic photographer who is pure talent - Paul is for you!! Ashley & Mike
Paul was our photographer for our small garden wedding, and he was truly amazing. He was extremely responsive and helpful in the run-up to the wedding, for example giving us advice on how to livestream the ceremony for guests who could not attend in person. On the day-of, Paul was much more than our photographer - he helped us set the stage for the ceremony, helped with countless other organizational matters, and even made announcements to our guests ("here's the cake!"). Everyone loved Paul - he made us, our family, and our guests feel so at ease. And the photos are ***GORGEOUS*** Paul captured the quirky and intimate spirit of our wedding perfectly. Thank you so much, Paul, for everything that you did!!! Anna & David
Paul is the best!!! We had him taking pictures of our wedding day and he gets things done in perfect time for us to enjoy our party. He knows how to get the best of each person for pictures and if you want the best pictures stress-free call him!!! Paul really goes above and beyond making it fun for you and your guests, plus the pictures are to die for as beautiful. Alejandra & Nicholas
Paul is a wonderful photographer. We found Paul browsing through Best of the Knot and everything went great. He was attentive and easy to communicate with throughout the entire process. He stuck by us through all of the uncertainty of Covid and helped to put me at ease on the big day. You’ll get not only great photos but also a lot of wonderful general wedding day advice and tips. Thank you, Paul. Victoria & Mike
Paul is one of a kind and the best. He gives encouraging advice while taking the best pictures. He makes you feel beyond comfortable and treats you as if you are family. He was so responsive and made sure I got all the shots I wanted before he left at the end of the night. All our pictures are spectacular. Kayla & Tommy
Best Photographer Ever! We loved Paul from the first moment we spoke to him and hands down was one of the best and most enthusiastic wedding vendors we hired! He was extremely helpful and knowledgeable not only from the photography standpoint but also helped us with a day of timeline and outlining other logistics you wouldn't think about! Without a doubt hire Paul! We couldn't stop getting compliments about him and would hire him again for ANY event. Abby & Kelvin
Paul was amazing!! The pictures were the most important part for me, and they turned out great! He knew I didn’t want to be the center of attention and helped cater to what I wanted. He was funny, easy to work with, and all around simply great! I would highly recommend him! Brianna & Dustin
We hired Paul and he was amazing. So polite and prepared us for every step of the way. We both knew it was very important to have beautiful photos for future memories of our wedding day. We are so happy we decided to have Paul capture our wedding as all the photos turned out amazing! He was so professional on the day and was really personable with everyone and was great with the kids also. Paul fit in to the wedding and we didn’t even know we were getting our photos taken all that time. He really captured the love and how beautiful a day it was and just made the whole experience a breeze! Thank you so much Paul! Would absolutely tell anyone he is a must if you are getting married and want an amazing experience. Megan & Riaan
Everything you’d want in a photographer! OMG.... Honestly, I don’t know where to start because I don’t know if I’d could ever stop myself from raving. Paul Saunders was incredible. His positive energy was everything. He went above and beyond what we could have expected from a photographer. He truly made the most important day of our lives that much more special. He was never in the way yet had everything under control it was magic! We would have truly missed out on so much if we had decided to go with anyone other than Paul. It was never awkward, he fit right in, just like having another one of the family members around. I would recommend Paul 100 times over! I will never forget his kindness and endearing words on our special day. Thank You Paul for everything, for us he was more than just a photographer. Yvette & Edwin
Paul is absolutely wonderful. He goes above and beyond anything we expected from a photographer. The pictures are gorgeous, and he is incredibly organized which helped us get everything done with plenty of time to spare. We didn’t miss our wedding and he made the photos fun, and everyone was very comfortable. Thank you Paul for making our day flawless. Lisa & Ryan
Paul was our photographer for our wedding near Boston, and we were very happy with his professionalism and how he was quick and efficient yet maintained a sense of calm throughout the day. We had originally planned to have our wedding in Vermont; however, due to the pandemic, our plans changed. We got married in my husband's parents' backyard in instead, which is a beautiful setting, but definitely not the original plan. Paul was very flexible when these changes were made, and he stepped in to cover. We are very happy that he did, and we just received our pictures, which were on time (one month after the wedding). They look beautiful... he captured everything I had hoped he would and more. Tess & Tom
Book Paul Saunders and be amazed! Paul Saunders is a dedicated professional with an artistic eye that will make your wedding day shine! Paul was on-time and ready to roll with a smile and an energy level that never faltered throughout the 10-hour photo shoot. He is willing to travel outside the Albany area which helped tremendously when my daughter and her fiancé’s wedding was moved due to COVID-19 restrictions from a venue in Vermont to a backyard wedding ceremony and reception in Framingham, Massachusetts. He is unobtrusive yet friendly, while getting great shots and mindful of all our special requests. Thank you, Paul, for your expertise with everything! Isabelle DeRoy (mother of the bride)
It is a great experience to work with Paul. He is very flexible, kind, and considerate in every detail. He is also very experienced in timing and scheduling, so we didn’t run late for church after having our first look at a beach. I think a couple can really count on him to take charge as needed, especially during a very busy wedding day like we had. In addition, my guests/family really liked his humor and way of doing things when we took the group portraits as he made everything easy and enjoyable. Thank you Paul! Mili & Charles
Paul was highly professional and excellent from start to finish. Our wedding day at Stablegate Barn went perfectly and we have beautiful pictures to remember the day. We would highly recommend Paul for any event. We love our beautiful previews and so happy with everything. Christine & Michael
Paul exceeded our expectations. Paul was absolutely amazing as our wedding photographer. We had a change of plans due to Covid, but he was completely flexible and on board with our new arrangements. He was extremely responsive leading up to the wedding and our phone conversation right before the big day had my husband and I smiling from ear to ear. Paul memorized all of our family members names and was very excited and enthusiastic about us including our beloved dog, Bruno in our wedding. Everyone is still raving to me about how great he was! We’ve received some sample pictures and I couldn’t be happier with the results. He kept everything real and authentic, and I wouldn’t recommend anyone else for your big day. His style, personality, and enthusiasm are all top-notch! Thanks again, Paul! Ashley & Rob
Paul was amazing!! He took charge and made sure we got so many beautiful pictures and made it so much fun for everyone. We quickly got sneak peek pictures emailed to us within a couple days and love all of them. I would highly recommend Paul for any event as he is exceptional! Leigh & John
Hire him right away. I don't even know where to start when it comes to reviewing Paul. Sam and I have been together for almost 10 years, and we have two amazing kids together. We were told by a family friend to hire Paul as our photographer, and I jumped right to it. The night Paul called us; I knew he would be perfect. We just had our engagement photos done by him at Congress Park in Saratoga, and I cannot stop looking at them. We had our kids join in on the photos and he kept up with their high energy. Our daughter who is 5, later that night told us that she loved Paul and can't wait to see him again. Please hire Paul. He does not disappoint, and he really works with you! Sam and I got engaged in Congress Park, and Paul made sure we got pictures in the area where it happened. Furthermore, we are getting married at Jimbo's Club at the Point on Brant Lake and he made sure to take pictures with water in the background to match with our wedding for next year. I honestly can go on and on about how amazing he is. Thank you, Paul, for everything!! Hannah & Sam
When we first started talking to Paul, COVID was not really an issue. He was super-helpful over the phone and asked many questions to get to know my fiancé and I and even everyone in our wedding party. Due to some unfortunate circumstances we ended up cancelling our wedding last-minute and just eloping. Paul was very accommodating throughout and I am very sad that we did not get to work with him, but if anything ever comes up, I will be using him without hesitation. He was very quick with responses and his kindness really made everything a lot less stressful. We greatly appreciate everything he did for us. Kim & Chris
Paul exceeded every expectation I ever had for our wedding. My husband and I had a small, "covid-style" minimony in upstate NY. Paul truly made our dreams come true for our ceremony. He followed my vision, was responsive and engaging, and took some of the most incredible, authentic photos I have ever seen. He captured our love for each other in intimate shots, as well as our families' love for us both. He was able to blend in with the happenings around us, and not once did I feel the photographing was intrusive or taking away from the special day - everything felt natural and purposeful. He made me feel beautiful, and my photo-shy husband actually relaxed with Paul's direction, and by the end he LOVED taking the private photos with me (never thought that day would come)! My entire family has been raving about Paul since. My cousins want to use him for their future weddings. & I've been asked countless times already for me to blow up some of the photos for family members because they are so impressed with how they came out. Thank you Paul, for being an integral part of our special day and capturing the moments so that we can remember them for years to come. We are beyond grateful. Marianna & MichaelTop of Form
Awesome experience! I have dealt with Paul for the past two years planning my wedding. He has been great on advice for the entire planning process. We recently had to cancel my wedding because of COVID, and he has been nothing but sympathetic and understanding, he even gave our deposit back! I will not hesitate to recommend him to others, and will be using Paul in the future! Megan & Peter
Amazing! Fun, upbeat, and positive! With everything happening in the world right now, Paul was a super star in being flexible and positive with all our last-minute changes! We had our venue cancel on us twice due to covid and were beginning to think we couldn’t get married. Paul worked with us and encouraged us throughout and made us feel amazing with everything. On our wedding day, he was incredibly organized, happy, funny and now all of my wedding party wants to use him when they get married. I truly don’t have enough good things to say about Paul! We love all your amazing preview pictures too! Breanne & Connor
Excellent photographer and person! It was an absolute delight to work with Paul and we would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a photographer. If we have any other events that need to be captured, we know who we will use, without hesitation! Not only are his photos excellent, but Paul is such a warm and friendly person to work with and takes a genuine interest in making sure that he captures you and your wedding day. Starting with our initial conversation, engagement and then wedding photo shoot, he went above and beyond to ensure that everything went smoothly. Not only did he take photos of our day, but he also took on many other roles: helping us to plan certain aspects of our ceremony, vows, kept the flow of the day and more. He even took the time before the wedding to go over the wedding party and family names as well as certain group pictures to capture. We couldn’t be happier with the results! Fatima & Nathan
I would highly recommend Paul Saunders Photography! Especially this year when dealing with rescheduling plans due to Covid-19, Paul was extremely helpful and flexible in helping to capture our minimony and push our original contract to next year. He was flexible about the timing as we scrambled to reschedule what we needed for pictures for our minimony, and we now have so many beautiful pictures and memories of the day. We look forward to working with him next year again with our big wedding! Meghan & Mike
Great experience start to end. We hired Paul for our engagement shoot last summer and for our wedding this June. He did an amazing job for our engagement shoot and made us feel very comfortable. Our wedding was unfortunately postponed due to COVID-19, but we still had Paul shoot the small ceremony we had at our house with our immediate family. We had a phone call about a week before our new “minimony” as he called it. At the time of the call I was mostly just sad our original wedding wasn’t going to happen and feeling the stress of having to plan a new wedding from scratch on our own. But after the phone call with Paul I was actually excited for the first time in weeks. I was obviously excited to marry my fiancé, but it felt like a cloud was hanging over us. Paul was excited for our day and went through all the reasons he loved “minimonies” and the unique and intimate experience we would get. When the day came, we had 20 people in total attend our wedding and he memorized everyone’s name. He blended in when capturing candid moments (not easy to do in a crowded house) and put everyone at ease when taking posed photos. He even got our 2-year-old niece to participate in a fun way by throwing flower petals when she refused to cooperate for the photos, and they turned out to be some of my favorites. Overall, Paul will be a light and positive energy for your day and give you great quality photos to cherish forever. He was amazingly flexible with everything having to change. We can’t wait for him to shoot our re-do wedding next year! Lauren & Joseph
I cannot say enough great things about Paul Saunders Photography! Our wedding was slated for May 2020 and due to COVID 19 was pushed back to 2021. Paul was in constant communication with us the entire time and really put our minds at ease about the sudden changes in our plans. Our venue unfortunately closed permanently soon thereafter which put us into total limbo. Every other wedding deposit we had put down refused to refund us, but Paul said don't worry! We got our full deposit back right away which was incredible. We will absolutely be hiring Paul again when we reschedule our wedding. His photos are beautiful, he is a complete professional and his kindness will never be forgotten. Jen & Marc
Absolutely AMAZING!!!!!! Paul and his assistant were extremely amazing to work with from the very beginning. We had to reschedule our wedding due to COVID and she was unavailable for our new date, so Paul jumped in to take over! Unfortunately, we had to reschedule again due to gathering limitations with the pandemic, but Paul stuck by us all the way until the last second. When we did cancel, he fully refunded our deposit without hesitation! The check really was in the mail unlike two other vendors. We look forward to working with Paul in the future and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND him for any celebration!!!!!!!! Jamie & Britton
Paul saved my daughter's wedding! Plans changed last minute because of the virus and just when we were ready to give up on her dream wedding Paul was flexible and helped shape the perfect day! His exuberance and willingness to work with time and distance issues and last-minute changes truly made for a great time. Then we get to the pictures the day after! They are beautiful! He captured the emotional rollercoaster beautifully. He is incredibly talented and just wonderfully kind and helpful. Kelly (mother of the bride)
From start to finish, we truly enjoyed working with Paul! He’s a true professional—very responsive to questions and easy to work with. He made several suggestions for both the sequence of our day and photo opportunities that we hadn’t even considered (and ended up loving!). As our plans continued to evolve, Paul was more than happy to be flexible and work through changes with us. He treated every aspect of our day (including our church ceremony) and everyone involved in our wedding with the utmost respect. We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer to capture our day and highly recommend Paul! Emily & Thomas
Hands down the best choice for a photographer! Paul has an infectious upbeat charming personality while staying focused on the task at hand. He won us over instantly at a wedding expo last year! I am the MOB and I signed him up for my daughter’s wedding without even consulting her! There was just no one better or even close to his viewed talent and charming personality. Instantly becomes not a photographer but friend. He also treats you like your wedding is his only focus, and communication is swift and comfortable. He was very flexible to our needs. I would never recommend any other photographer as highly as I would recommend Paul. We have been absolutely delighted with everything. 10 stars out of 5! Cheryl (mother of the bride)
The wedding that wasn't. While my husband and I were not able to have the wedding we dreamed of, due to the Coronavirus, we had a wonderful experience working with Paul to plan for what would have been the big day. He was prompt and professional in his responses to our inquiries and was generous enough to grant us a full refund (unlike our other vendors) when we were forced to cancel our wedding last minute. We highly recommend Paul and his team for any functions you may be planning when the world is back to normal! We are so thankful for everything he did for us and his kindness and support. David & Justin
Amazing work! Paul was exactly what we needed! The pictures turned out beautiful and he made the day completely stress-free. He was so easy going and made everything so much less stressful. We were in contact a lot before the wedding, so he knew exactly what we wanted to get out of our photos, and he absolutely fulfilled what we wanted! He responds quickly and works around your schedule for planning. Photos were back very quick and there were hundreds of photos to choose from. It has been almost a year and we forgot to order our prints and he gladly offered to do them even this late! Highly recommend and pricing was very affordable for wedding photographers! Jill & Chris
Paul was quick to come up with ideas on how to make our day unique. As our wedding grew closer, we went through everything in detail and were reassured everything would be taken care of and we didn't need to worry. Paul always gave honest feedback on the best way to time and plan our day and we are so thankful for that. My husband later told me Paul could sense his nervousness on our wedding day and he helped calm him down, so he wasn’t anxious and got to enjoy everything. The pictures we received weren't just of the wedding party but of all our guests so we will forever be able to think back about the great time and memories experienced by everyone in attendance. The photographs were all beautiful and we highly recommend him to all couples. We are so thankful for everything Paul did for us. Sam & Jon
We got married at 90 State Events and I don’t even know where to begin with Paul! During the entire wedding planning process, he was there for me for every single question and concern that I had and always reassured me not to worry about anything and that he had it all under control. The day of the wedding, Paul was energetic and excited and made the entire day an absolute blast for everyone! His outgoing personality was so contagious and made it incredibly easy to work with him. Even though we had just met, it felt like he was someone I had known for years as he fit right in. He made me feel completely stress-free and took care of everything - including wrangling my husband and his rowdy groomsmen and making sure they were where they needed to be. No easy task. We received all our pictures two weeks after our wedding, and they are breathtaking and tell the entire story of our wonderful day. I can’t begin to tell you how many compliments we’ve received on photos saying how beautiful they are. I would give Paul 1,000 stars if I could and would recommend him to all future bride and groom. Best decision my husband and I ever made! Tricia & Phillip
After talking to a couple of vendors, I decided to hire Paul Saunders Photography for our Seaport Hotel wedding in Boston. Paul was always very responsive and was such a pleasure to deal with. Always kind and helpful without being pushy. He had a game plan from the very beginning and worked really hard to ensure that the day was a success even with some of our delays that made things challenging with time. We couldn't have picked a better photographer or person! He had so many great ideas for the pictures, and they all came out looking great!! Josh and I would hire him again in a heartbeat! Caroline & Josh
Paul was great to work with for our winter wedding in Watertown. His personality and professionalism both made the night go so smoothly. Paul was open to our ideas for pictures but also had great vision of his own to get some great shots during the snowstorm. His humor during the large group shots definitely made the photos more fun and genuine (everyone was laughing) than just standing still to take a regular looking picture. Definitely would recommend to anybody looking for an amazing photographer Kylie & Nathan
We got married in Saratoga and Paul was extremely professional, accommodating and just gracious all around. He took pride in the small details that made us feel so comfortable and at ease. We felt as though he was part of the family and respected our every request. I would highly recommend Paul for any occasion as he is such a kind and caring person. Just wonderful with everything. Amy & George
Paul was amazing to work with from the start! We had to change dates and he was super flexible with everything. We had a small ceremony and reception in Boston. Paul was fabulous and helped us coordinate when we would take group photos and made sure everything ran to schedule without us being rushed. I cannot say enough about what a pleasure he was to have as our photographer at our wedding! You cannot go wrong hiring him as your photographer as he is the easiest person you could possibly wish to work with. I would hire him and his team any day again!! We absolutely love all our beautiful previews he sent us right after our wedding. Simply put, Paul helped make our day perfect! Sam & Jake
Willing to go above and beyond for the perfect shot! Working with Paul was fantastic! My husband and I got married in Saratoga at Canfield Casino and Paul perfectly captured the day! He is very easy to work with and is willing to go above and beyond to get the perfect shot! He was very attentive and took the time to ensure that he knew everything that we wanted in terms of pictures for our day and even took the time to learn the names of our bridal party/immediate family. I was truly impressed by the work that he did! Anna & Mark
Paul was AMAZING! Everybody went on and on about how awesome and funny our photographer was, and I definitely agree! He was so fun, friendly, and easy to work with. He knew the layout of our castle venue very well and exactly what pictures to get and with whom and was super-organized about the whole thing. I didn't want to spend a ton of time doing photos and he made sure everything went quickly and smoothly without rushing us. I don't like being the center of attention either and Paul was so respectful of that throughout wedding day! From getting the guys' boutonnieres straightened, bringing us drinks later on, to making everyone laugh, he really took care of everything. My husband and I definitely recommend Paul to anyone looking for an amazing photographer. Lisa & Stephen
Adam and I are so happy that we went with Paul as our photographer for our Vermont wedding. He made sure to get all the pictures that we wanted to take and made sure too that we didn't have to stress or worry about anything on our wedding day. He really handled everything and was so kind and helpful. He took plenty of pictures without taking up too much time, so we could enjoy the cocktail hour and reception. That was very important for us. We would recommend Paul for anyone looking for a professional photographer who is exceptionally good at everything. Megan & Adam
Paul Saunders is absolutely incredible! Not only is he an amazing photographer, but he is also a pure gentleman. Paul had a quick response time and he always answered all of our questions. He made us feel completely comfortable and at ease with preparation for the day. We got married at The Lodge at Echo Lake and he helped make a timeline that worked for us and our family. The day of our wedding, Paul helped everyone feel relaxed and comfortable as he helped keep everyone laughing and smiling. Our entire family raved about how amazing of a photographer he is! We cannot believe how many beautiful pictures we received from our day. Could you want anything more? We highly recommend Paul Saunders! Brittani & Brian
Paul was amazing to work with. He kept us all laughing all day/night and moved through our larger wedding party/family photos quickly so that we could enjoy our cocktail hour after our ceremony, which was exactly what we were looking for. We really wanted someone who was going to capture the fun candid moments throughout our day and Paul got it right. He really delivered! He also has a wide array of packages and options which made it easier for us to get exactly what we were looking for and stay within our budget as well. Paul is wonderfully kind and thoughtful and would recommend him to anyone getting married! Meagan & Brian
Paul did an amazing job with our wedding photos even though it was raining. He even did our engagement photos last year and they were incredible. He was in constant communication with us leading up to our day and made us laugh all the time. Paul even made my husband laugh which he never does nor does he like getting his picture taken. It was great to see his actual smile come through in all the photos. The photography packages were very reasonable, and you could customize in the way you wanted to without spending a massive amount. Paul was easy to talk to and really gets to know you as a couple. We are so happy with everything and highly recommend Paul for everything. Moriah & Chris
We got married in Saratoga and I can’t say enough positive things about my experience with Paul!! He genuinely cares about making your wedding day special and as stress-free as possible. My husband and I both have very large families and Paul took the time to remember their names and relation (not an easy task). From my very first phone call with him, I could tell he was both a professional and kind person. He knew all the right questions to ask and foresaw questions that we might have had down the road. He always gets back to you within a timely manner and communicates thoroughly. In searching for a photographer, we found him to be very reasonably priced for the exceptional service he provides. He knew how to make the typical posed photos you see from weddings appear relaxed and natural. I enjoyed having him be our photographer and I highly recommend him to any couple that values quality service and professionalism. He is truly exceptional with everything. Not for nothing, but any photographer that can photograph large groups of children and is willing to lay on the floor to get the perfect shot is a 10/10! Stephanie & Duncan
Couldn’t have found anyone better! Paul was absolutely amazing on our wedding day at Liberty Ridge Farm. He was incredibly organized and friendly and made sure we got every picture we wanted without being rushed or missing our reception. There was an autistic teenager in the bridal party who isn’t one for photos, and Paul made sure he was very comfortable and found ways to get him to smile and enjoy everything. A few days before the wedding we talked on the phone and went over everyone’s names in the bridal party, and that day he knew them all by memory, I was amazed! He paid attention to all the small details throughout our wedding, and we got tons of compliments on how professional he was. People couldn’t believe all the little things he did to make sure everything was perfect for us! I couldn’t be happier and can’t wait to get our photos back as know they’re going to be amazing!!!! Ashley & Matt
Paul was everything we wanted for a wedding photographer and more. He made the day go smooth and made us less anxious at every moment. All our family and friends at the wedding said, “where did you find such a great photographer?”. He made everyone comfortable and has everyone laughing all the time. We would highly recommend him to anyone! The pictures we received were everything and more. Absolute perfection just like our wedding day. Such amazing photos! Thank you, Paul, for being incredible!!! Jess & Bryan
Paul was fantastic to say the least! He was extremely energetic, and he made my special day that much better. He was extremely easy to talk to and he made sure that everyone had a fantastic time when he was around. He went out of his way to ensure that me and my husband were having fun and taken care of. He is a photographer, but he did so much more for us. He made us laugh and he also checked in on us to make sure we had drinks and food and he even got us our pieces of cake! His quality of customer service is the best I have ever seen and better than any other vendor we hired! He is also extremely reasonably priced. If you need a photographer for your special day, CHOOSE PAUL SAUNDERS PHOTOGRAPHY!!! Ashley & Chris
Amazing!! From the first time I talked to Paul he was very calming and reassured us that he worked for us & wanted to do everything to make our day perfect. I had so many questions about ceremony & reception timeline and first looks and Paul answered everything with so much experience and helped form our schedule. He was better than our wedding planner we hired! The entire wedding party and guests fell in love with Paul’s personality and fun energy! I cannot wait to see the amazing shots he got and all the detailed pictures from the day. 10/10!! He’s the absolute best. It would be extremely hard to find a better photographer!! Also, he’s extremely reasonable for the top quality and service provided. Taylor & Joey
Not only were my husband and I impressed with Paul, but many of our guests, including my father, commented saying how professional and organized Paul was as our photographer. We got married at The State Room and he was always friendly, and made us feel comfortable, but yet made sure everyone was doing what they needed to do in order to get the best possible picture. We are so happy with everything and definitely highly recommend Paul Saunders! Jen & Chris
The number of times I heard on my wedding day and in the days after, "Where did you find your photographer? He was so funny and great!" is countless! We knew Paul was the right man from the first phone call we had with him. He was on the same page as us regarding doing first looks, staged photos, and the general vibe we wanted. We chatted a few times and he made sure he knew the plan, knew people's names, as well as making sure I brought certain items with me for photos (e.g. any special hangers, ring boxes, etc.). He impressed my family members by knowing and remembering all their names. Paul was energetic and ready to go from the very first moment we arrived at the venue. He was efficient as well - he got pictures of us girls, did some artistic photos of the dresses, rings, flowers, etc., went off to get photos of the boys (no first look). We had a videographer in addition, and it seemed to me that Paul and he worked together very well. Paul was so funny and made sure everyone was having a good time while we got all the obligatory photos. He would ask someone to just move their arm or leg a bit and it would change their pose completely to make for a better photo. He was joking with everyone, especially the grandparents, which was absolutely hilarious. The only thing I didn't like was we did do a lot of the same thing (smile looking at him, then looking at each other), but I know he was trying to make sure he got all the important shots before it started raining. He also effectively managed guests who were trying to butt in and get group photos when we still had important pictures to take. Later during the night, he was so gracious in taking my photo requests. Paul was just amazing. Shannon & Tom
Paul was an amazing addition to our wedding day at Revolution Hall! He made me feel at ease from our first phone call all the way up through the end of the night of the wedding. Paul gave us great advice to make our ceremony and reception run smoother. He also has such a great energy and positive attitude that many of our guests commented how much they enjoyed him. We would gladly hire him again for another event and couldn’t be happier with everything. Thank you Paul!! Erika & Pat
We recently had a wedding with Paul Saunders as the photographer and I cannot overstate how happy we were with his services. The quality of his pictures are top notch but most importantly, he was absolutely the easiest vendor to work with. He will have your whole party laughing (in another lifetime he would have been a standup comedian) while still ensuring he gets the professional shots. At one point he was on the ground in the garden to ensure he got the best angles for our special day. We were satisfied with all of our vendors, but Paul was easily the most memorable and nicest to work with. UPDATE: Thank you so much Paul! These pictures are truly incredible, we couldn’t be happier with how they turned out. They are amazing. Thank you for everything and helping to make our wedding so wonderful and capturing these beautiful photos that we will treasure forever! Simone & Mike
We got married in Albany and Paul was beyond amazing to work with! We received so many compliments on him and all of our guests wanted his information as everyone was so impressed. His pricing is also amazing with all the different packages to choose from. I will always choose Paul as our photographer for any of our photo needs in years to come as he made our wedding day simply perfect. Nicole & David
Above and Beyond!!!! Paul is the best decision we made regarding our Lake George wedding. He created an entire timeline for us to do a first look, get the majority of our pictures done, and still enjoy cocktail hour. Paul made everyone laugh and feel at ease, while still capturing major moments. His work ethic is astounding. It is rare to have wedding guests rave about the photographer to the bride & groom, but we have had numerous instances of that! He is talented, fun, calming, and much more. Everything you could ever want in a wedding photographer. If you want to have a good time and not worry on your wedding day - hire him! UPDATE: Paul there are no words.... we cannot thank you enough. Our pictures are better than we could have ever possibly imagined. You would think a team of 6 captured them!!! You are amazing and we so appreciate all your hard work and talent as we are overjoyed. THANK YOU!!! Amy & Joe
Great fun yet very professional. We asked Paul to shoot our daughter’s wedding in Lake George. He was immediately responsive and full of useful advice. Upon arriving at our venue, Paul took control of a very large bridal party using humor and experience to corral them and keep everything running to plan. He took a huge variety of shots and used his expertise to work with poses and candid photos through the day. During both the ceremony and reception, he was almost invisible yet everywhere at once. All our family and friends were so impressed. We highly recommend Paul Saunders as a wonderful person and photographer. Ann & Tom (parents of bride)
When my husband and I first met Paul at a wedding show we knew he was something special. When we talked with Paul, we were confident he would deliver amazing photographs that we would cherish forever; we also knew his expertise would be imperative on the day of to make sure everything was perfect. His calm and kind demeanor made the day run so smoothly. He was very personable with not only us but our bridal party and family as well. He took the time to get to know everyone on a first name basis and made everyone feel comfortable and relaxed I was confident that Paul would capture every special moment of our wedding, I had no stress on my wedding day with Paul. He truly was such an asset throughout; I couldn't thank him enough. I highly recommend Paul and his team for your wedding day. Emily & Will
Paul is fun, professional, and super experienced! He gets everyone laughing and having fun so your photos don't feel staged or fake. Paul was also very helpful in helping me plan, hire other vendors, and putting me at ease by allowing me to enjoy my wedding instead of worrying about anything else going on. We love all our beautiful teaser shots and can't wait to see our wedding photos. Thank you Paul! Rachel & Zac
Paul is absolutely AMAZING!! He was so prepared and made all the photos move way quicker than I've seen at other weddings which was great so we could catch the last part of the cocktail hour. I would 100% recommend Paul. We just received our photos, and they are so amazing. We got married at a winery in the Finger Lakes and he was able to capture our day without being intrusive and really let us just be us. He really is a "ninja"! Elise & Foster
Paul was amazing! He took the time to learn the names of all the relevant family members and wedding party which really made the photo process go so smoothly. Our families both felt very comfortable interacting with Paul, and he brought our more camera-shy relatives out of their shell. They were actually smiling and laughing for pictures which they never do! He was super-flexible and made sure that all of our special moments were captured without feeling pressured, rushed, or unnatural. We received our pictures very quickly and were blown away at how beautiful they are. Thank you, Paul, for everything. We couldn’t be happier!! Lindsey & Kyle
Paul was our photographer for our August wedding in Massachusetts, and we would highly recommend him as made everything so easy. He offered a range of options that were all very reasonably priced for the level and quality of service provided. Paul also took the time to get to know members of our families and bridal party (we had a lot) and was able to capture so many great moments throughout the day. We loved our beautiful preview photos and can’t wait to see the rest! Meg & Eddie
Paul was famous among my vendors at The Sagamore - now I see why! He provided us with a sample schedule for our wedding day, made sure I felt comfortable with it, and then made sure we stuck to it and got down the aisle on time. His hard work enabled us to be completely in-the-moment at our wedding, including our bridal party who still rave about what a fun spirit he brought to the party. Of course, his pictures were phenomenal. We were provided an entire flash drive with rights included. He made our beautiful day even more beautiful and allowed us to relive the day minute-by-minute. We’re so grateful for Paul and highly recommend him for any upscale event! Katherine & Matt
Honestly, we absolutely cannot sing enough praises about Paul. Leading up to our big day, he kept us in the loop. The week before our wedding, he called us and just walked us through the timeline and talked to us to find out more about us as a couple, a family and what kind of shots he will need to focus on. He definitely stressed that our only job as the bride and groom was to have fun and enjoy the day. My goodness was he right about that! He arrived early, took some getting ready shots, and his sense of humor just made our first look and family formal photos so easy to get through. Paul is more than a photographer. He played a wedding coordinator role to make sure everything was on task for the formal photos as well as the party photos. We honestly felt like he took on every role that was needed. Both our families enjoyed his company so much and we are absolutely glad we had Paul on our team. Without question, if you are looking for a photographer with an eye for great shots, an awesome sense of humor, who will care about you as a couple, and does everything to ensure that you have fun on your wedding day, then don't think twice and just go with Paul. You will not regret it! Plus, we absolutely love all our beautiful teaser shots he sent over right after our day. Naa Aku & Andrew
Paul is so wonderful to work with. Made our wedding day at Traditions that much better and he’s so much fun to be around! He was so nice and great with all our families. He had a ton of energy throughout our wedding and was really kind and super professional. You will not regret having him be part of your wedding team!! We received previews a few days after our wedding, and these are beautiful too!! Definitely hire him to be your photographer as he’s amazing!!!! UPDATE: We just wanted to say THANK YOU PAUL!!! Our wedding photos are simply beautiful. You captured our day perfectly and we love the amazing work that you did!! We are so incredibly happy with everything! Thank you again for being incredible to work with and for bringing so much love and energy to our big day with all the moments you captured! Thank you so so much! Kayleigh & Brian
Paul absolutely blew me away with how great of a photographer he was on our wedding day. You can tell he knows what he is doing and really enjoys it. Many of my guests and family members complimented on how organized, thorough, professional, and fun he was. I agree with them! My sister-in-law said she wants to hire him as her motivational life coach! LOL! He took the reins and made my day very smooth from start to finish. He called me the week before and we set up a plan on how we wanted to get pictures. He alleviated a lot of anxiety I had about the logistics of the day as he handled everything. He gave us ideas and directions on how to pose and captured many beautiful candid moments as well. He even remembered all my family members names that I told him once over the phone and made everyone smile and laugh!! I highly recommend him. His prices are great, and his work is beautiful. We got our previews right after our wedding and couldn’t be happier. I’m sure you will be as pleased as I was. Kate & Dan
We had the BEST experience with Paul, and he made everything so easy! He was incredibly responsive throughout and even send teaser shots right after our wedding. He had such a positive attitude and outlook on our day, and he made our photo "shoot" part of the day FUN! We had a bigger wedding party and he was able to get all the shots we hoped for and wrangle a really big crowd with ease! We would highly recommend as he is exceptional with everything! Steph & Brendan
Wow. Our wedding in The Catskills was so amazing, and I must thank you for your incredible work and dedication. I was so impressed that from the moment you arrived until when you left (later than scheduled), you were always capturing the action. You were such a significant part of our whole team of people working with us. I can't thank you enough for how you stepped in to coordinate things with the DJ, with our venue staff, and others to make sure everyone was in the right place, doing the right thing, at the right time. Additionally, you were so understanding of the different dynamics (the old, the older, the oldest, the divorced, the quiet, and the loud) we had going on. I think you worked the hardest out of everyone and I just can't appreciate enough how great a job you did. I know that you probably do so many of these events that they all blur together, and most are probably indistinct, but your dedication will always stand out in my memory of the day. You were simply amazing. Thank you, Paul, on behalf of Olivia and myself. Matt & Olivia
Paul was wonderful to work with for our wedding at Mountain Top Inn in Vermont. Very easy to get in touch with, always quick to get back to us, and very detailed about what the options/next steps are. Very professional in terms of coming prepared, he called us the week before to inquire about who will be present for what, everyone's names, etc., and to make a game plan. Super fun and easy going the day of the wedding, very funny in his interactions with all family members and friends. He made us feel completely at ease, was on top of everything and just wanted us to have a good time and enjoy everything. We had a great experience and so happy with all our beautiful pictures! Liz & Chris
Paul was absolutely amazing! We got married at Belhurst Castle in July during the one weekend where it hit 100 degrees. I can truly say we would not have survived the heat without Paul! He was efficient and managed our group beautifully so that he could get all the gorgeous outdoor shots and then get us into the air conditioning as quickly as possible. The entire day, he knew how to make our group laugh to get genuine shots that weren’t staged looking. He really made sure we were able to express our personalities in the photos. I have gotten lots of preview photos and they are stunning (you can't even tell we were dripping in sweat)! Paul not only supports you on the wedding day, but he spends so much time giving you much needed advice and planning with you over the phone and through email. We highly recommend you book Paul Saunders for your wedding photographer. We couldn’t be happier! Meg & Anthony
We couldn't have chosen a better photographer for our wedding at Water’s Edge Lighthouse. Paul was efficient, professional, and had a great sense of humor. He kept us laughing the entire day and made everything so stress-free. We just got our sneak peeks (two days after our wedding) and we are SO EXCITED to see the rest of our photos as they are incredibly beautiful! We decided not to do a first look and were worried at first about not making our cocktail hour, but Paul worked his magic and we had almost a half hour left to spare after all of our photos were done! We can't thank Paul enough for the wonderful work he has done. I will recommend him 10 out of 10 times to anyone looking for a photographer who will remember little details, is friendly, professional, and so amazingly affordable!!!!!! Thank you so much, Paul, for making our wedding experience flawless and beyond anything we hoped for!! Megan & Thomas
Paul is simply amazing and a wonderful photographer. He makes the day light and funny, his personality is amazing. He knew all my family’s name which was impressive! We received teaser shots right after our wedding and they are breath taking! He is definitely someone I would hire over and over! His pictures are so beautiful, and I could not have asked for a better person to have shot our wedding!! All my family and friends were amazed by Paul and how incredibly helpful and kind he was! Everyone kept saying we love your photographer! I cannot express how much thanks we give to you! You are the best! Ashley & Andrew
Paul was amazing to work with. He has such great attention to little details you wouldn’t notice which makes his pictures that much better. He was so fun to be around and respected our time and got amazing shots without us missing any part of our wedding celebration. We love all the teasers he sent right after our day. Everyone at the wedding was complimenting him and how nice he was! Highly recommend! Idil & Matt
We hired Paul for our wedding at Old Daley Inn on Crooked Lake and he was absolutely great! Extremely friendly, professional, and comforting through our day! We were very anxious, and he really tried to reassure us that the wedding was going to be beautiful; that everything would go smoothly and to focus on the moments and enjoy things. All of our guests gave us compliments about hiring Paul, everyone thought he was amazing! Such beautiful pictures too! He had great ideas for poses, he takes the time to really make sure you’re comfortable at all times. He also doesn't want you to lose any time at your own wedding, he made sure we were able to attend cocktail hour and enjoy the hors d'oeuvre. He takes the time to talk to you beforehand about the wedding, learn people's names, what kind of pictures we are interested in, etc. He makes sure he is fully prepared for the wedding. He had all the timing down, and communicated with the venue, DJ, and us very well throughout our wedding. It was such a team effort! My husband and I recommend hiring Paul for any event, especially your wedding as he is amazing!! Debbie & Travis
Paul was amazing to work with from start to finish. He took the time to get to know everyone’s names from family to bridal party and knew exactly what photos to take. He was great at staying on schedule and made the experience very easy and enjoyable. We’ve received a few preview pictures right after our wedding and they are beautiful, and we couldn’t be happier. We would highly recommend Paul to anyone looking for a great photographer who is super-friendly! Madeleine & Andrew
You’d be hard pressed to find another photographer who works as hard as Paul. Paul was running around from start (at 11am) to finish (at 9pm!) getting the perfect shots as well as cute candids we’ll cherish forever. Working with Paul is easy, he does all of the hard work for you. We live out of state and Paul was always available by phone or email to answer our questions, calm our nerves and to provide excellent recommendations for vendors, from pianists to videographers. If you’re looking for a photographer who puts his clients first, makes you feel immediately at ease, and takes brilliant photos, look no further than Paul. We recommend him so highly that my sister even booked him for her wedding next May, he really is a great photographer, and person, to work with. Maddi & Jackson
Paul was wonderful! Throughout the whole process, he was very responsive and provided helpful suggestions along the way. In our pre-wedding prep call, he asked all the questions to understand the photos we wanted (and didn’t want) and the feel we were going for. On the day of, he remembered everyone’s name (the wedding party, immediate family, and our grandparents!) and provided great direction that kept the pictures moving without us feeling rushed. He was a calm, positive and happy energy on the day of and really helped make our day special. I was nervous about not having a second shooter, advice I had received from friends and family, but Paul did not miss one thing. When he says he can capture it all just himself, he means it! The quality of Paul’s work is just as great as his work ethic and personality. The photos are beautiful and his attention to detail is amazing. He knows how to set up a great photo and ensure everyone and every detail in the photo look good. Lastly, the value for the cost of Paul as your photographer is untouchable. Not only is his work high quality, but his packages also include more photos than most photographers and a ton of additional items that other photographers charge you extra for (online viewing, albums, printouts, etc.). I cannot recommend Paul enough! Elise & Thomas
Paul was awesome! He was on top of things and helped the day progress seamlessly. He is so detail-oriented and focuses on making the day exactly what we wanted it to be. We were running very late on our wedding day (we got married at Canfield Casino) and he helped us get beautiful photos and make up for lost time. He was truly a blessing and took the most gorgeous photos at an incredibly reasonable price. Everyone we spoke to about our wedding told us that we were lucky to have him because he was the best. They weren't lying!! I would give him a thousand plus stars if I could! Thank you for everything Paul!! Alicia & Gabe
Paul was an amazing photographer! We booked him for an engagement shoot as well as for our wedding at Glen Sanders Mansion, and he was so wonderful to us. He did a great job of making us feel calm and comfortable and was constantly giving us great advice and encouragement the whole way through. We're not used to having our photo taken, but Paul made us feel like professionals and look like models. He was great at organizing everyone for photos and keeping everyone running to schedule without us being rushed. Thank you so much Paul for making our day perfect! Cathy & Carl
Paul has been fantastic throughout the wedding planning process into our actual big day. Every time we spoke to Paul, he was able to recount a fact about us or our families which showed a lot of attentiveness. We got married at Greywacke Meadows and the day of he had memorized everyone's names! Paul was flexible, accommodating, and really understood our vision. He is also very passionate about photography and put so much work into getting a great shot - our wedding party is still talking about seeing Paul up in the trees trying to get a perfect aerial shot! I would 10000000% recommended Paul to anyone who wants a laid-back, professional. We love all our teaser shots that Paul sent right after our wedding and so thankful we had Paul for both our winter engagement shoot and wedding as he gave us just an AMAZING experience!!! Monica & Joe
What can I say about Paul Saunders Photography? Paul was truly an amazing photographer to work with. From the moment I met him, I knew that he wanted only the best for my husband (still getting used to hearing that!) and me. He was knowledgeable, willing to listen, and wanted nothing more than to give us beautiful pictures to remember one of the most important days of our lives. When we finally sat down with Paul to discuss booking him, he made us feel incredibly comfortable and it was more like talking with an old friend than a wedding vendor! Once we booked our date, his professionalism and caring nature continued. He was quick with email responses (and trust me...there were a lot of emails sent in our almost 2-year engagement!) and put me at ease on more than one occasion. What sticks out in my mind was the open communication we had with Paul. I was truly touched when he called me the week of my wedding to finalize our timeline, ask for names of our family members and bridal party and discuss any last-minute questions I may have had. He truly made my husband and I feel as though we didn't need to worry about anything...he had it covered! The day of our wedding was exactly as we planned, and Paul only added to that. He was funny, friendly, took charge, and made everyone feel completely comfortable. In fact, we heard nothing but compliments about Paul from our family, friends, bridal party, etc. (all things we already knew of course). He made our wedding day spectacular in Nassau. Finally, Paul surprised me once more by sending us preview pictures of our wedding only a few days after we got married. I knew he was amazing, but I wasn't expecting these previews so quickly and again, they were beautiful and better than I could have ever expected. To summarize, Paul is amazing. He is a spectacular photographer and has truly mastered his craft. He is dedicated, caring, funny, down to earth - a truly wonderful and caring person. Your wedding day will be amazing and by booking Paul Saunders Photography, you will book a phenomenal photographer and will have the most beautiful pictures to remember such a momentous and happy occasion for years to come. Alicia & Alex
Paul became a member of our party by the end of the night. We got married at Longfellows in Saratoga and I provided him with our family trees, and he was able to call people into shots by name, without assistance. He made everyone feel a part of the process. Not only did get make his way around our party to get every shot, he also provided reassurance and comfort during some extremely stressful moments prior to our reception. These simple comments and compliments went a long way. I felt like he became my wedding planner and coordinator by the end of the night as he took charge and lead everyone in the right direction. I highly recommend Paul; not only did my husband and I love working with him, but our guests continue to comment on how amazing our photographer was! Micaela & Carl
Paul Saunders is quite simply the best. Paul is truly a wedding professional who quickly got the feel of my daughter's wedding. He explains things that happen during the wedding day and make many valuable recommendations to help make thing run smoothly. Paul makes it abundantly clear that he and all the other venders that your hire work for you. You should tell them what you want, not the other way around. Our wedding and reception pictures were outstanding. Additionally, he made sure the bridal party and their parents all got to enjoy the cocktail hour while still taking all the necessary family group photographs. Trust me, this guy is the photographer to hire. Not to mention, he is an absolute wealth of information about all facets of the wedding day. We couldn’t possibly be happier with everything. Russ & Natalie (parents of the bride)
Paul was communicative throughout our wedding planning process. He immediately got a feel for the style of our wedding and embraced it and integrated it into which shots he prioritized. He asked us which photos we wanted to capture and helped us to create a realistic photo timeline for our wedding day. In the midst of the busyness of wedding planning, it was great to work with someone who we knew would bring his all to the table and who we could 100% rely on. The value for the number of hours (we hired Paul for 12 hours) that he spent with us on our wedding day was excellent compared to the other photographers that we researched, but we never felt like we were sacrificing on quality or professionalism to get such a good deal. Paul was also very good at organizing our large families and wedding party for group photos, which made capturing those shots much less stressful then if he hadn’t been a strong leader. Our beach photos are simply gorgeous, and we couldn’t be happier with how the day went. Thanks Paul Saunders Photography! Carla & Eugenio
Paul was great to work with for our wedding! He came with some great ideas and made me feel completely at ease with the whole process. He's also got a LOT of patience and kindness as my family photos went from just my mom and brother to a whole flock of extended family members I wasn't expecting to show up and they all wanted pictures. Thanks for everything and our beautiful previews pictures we received on our honeymoon. Vassana and Pat
Paul was an amazing photographer to work with from start to finish for our wedding in Syracuse. He was very detailed and took the stress out of what could have been a very stressful planning session with making our timeline work, so we weren’t rushed. On the day of the wedding, he was perfect being both a fun person for our entire (huge 34 person) wedding party to work with and encouraging us to be our complete selves. Everything went perfectly and I would recommend Paul to anyone. We received preview pictures the day after and just blown away by these Thank you Paul for your amazing work! Justine & Bobby
I had hired Paul right after meeting him. He was very professional and personable. He was so helpful and helped plan all the details of my wedding. Any questions I had he would respond so quickly and efficiently and made everything so easy. The pictures came out beautiful. During our wedding (we got married at Key Hall), he did everything possible to help make sure we had a worry-day experience and weren’t rushed with anything. He has the perfect personality for this. I’d hire Paul again in a heartbeat. If you are looking for awesome pictures and an awesome photographer, look no further. He is your guy! Stephanie & Will
I could not have made a better decision when picking a photographer for our Vermont wedding. Paul was absolutely amazing to work with from beginning to end. He always got back to me same day when it came to emails and his enthusiasm and positive attitude is contagious. He worked so well with all of the wedding party including our parents / family and even remembered everyone's names. He also did a great job working with the young kids that we had and got a lot of pictures of them which was really important to me. He went above and beyond by helping out with smaller items such as making sure we didn't forget the ring box and helping the guys pin on their boutonniere's. He made sure that we got all of the pictures we wanted and even helped recreate a couple of photos from my parents wedding. He was amazing (with our engagement shoot too) and would choose him every time. Highly recommend Paul Saunders Photography to anyone looking for a great photographer! Sarah & Chris
Paul was absolutely wonderful! We got married at Glen Sanders Mansion and he made the entire day perfect, fun and full of laughs. Even people who don't like having their picture taken had a blast with Paul as he made everything so easy! Can't wait to show everyone our amazing pictures!! Erin & Pat
Although long overdue, Andy and I cannot thank you enough for everything that you did to capture the beauty of our wedding day in Boston. We truly appreciate all of the time, effort, and constant communication throughout the entire planning process. From start to finish, we knew we made the best choice to have you as our photographer. The bridal party, and all our guests, absolutely loved your professionalism and approach with everything. Every time we look through our pictures, we are reminded how lucky we were to have such an amazing day. They are even better than we ever could have envisioned! We are so grateful and love that we can relive our wedding day through the amazing pictures. You are truly an incredibly talented photographer, and a real pleasure to have worked with. Thank you so much. Stefanie & Andrew
Paul shot our wedding Thanksgiving weekend in Albany. How much fun he is! I loved his upbeat and fun personality! He didn’t miss a beat! Every time someone was taking a photo on their own, he was right there to take a professional one as well! I'm not one to know what to do for pictures and am always worried how they will look, I never once had that worry with Paul. He was beyond fabulous! I was also extremely impressed by his memory! He had found out the names of all groomsmen, bridesmaids, ring bearers, flower girl, and important family member and friends two days prior to the wedding and the day of the wedding he knew EVERYONES name by heart!! (my wedding party alone consist of seven groomsmen, seven bridesmaids, two ring bearers and one flower girl! not to mention parents and grandparents and significant others and siblings!). Paul is absolutely phenomenal! Kayleigh & Ryan
Paul was everything we could've asked for in a photographer! You can tell in every conversation you have with him that he truly cares about what he does, and he really cares about each couple he meets. He exceeded every expectation I had, and (being as my fiancé and I had never had professional photos taken like this before) he made us feel completely comfortable and able to show true emotion in each pose. He perfectly captures every moment, and we couldn't be more thrilled with how your engagement photos came out. We'll be recommending you to everyone with a photo need, Paul! Thank you so much! Samantha &Tyler
Paul was FANTASTIC! We ended up doing our outdoor engagement shoot on the coldest day ever, but Paul managed to get amazing photos that didn’t make us look like we were frozen and turning blue. We were so impressed with how many great shots he got in so short a time. He was extremely flexible with timing and location and had tons of great ideas. Neither of us are big into having our picture taken, but Paul made us feel very comfortable and made it a positive experience. Included in our shoot were some prints and a lovely canvas that is now hanging in our living room. We can’t wait to see what amazing shots he’ll get at our Saratoga wedding in August when he won’t have to battle the elements as much! Lindsay & Kyle
Paul was an absolute pleasure to work with! Throughout our planning process, Paul was always quick to respond to any questions we had and sent along very detailed information. We didn’t have to worry about anything. On our wedding day, he was so professional and amazing with time management as we were ahead of schedule all day. We even got pictures after church at a park in downtown Boston and still got to enjoy all our cocktail hour. Thanks to Paul keeping everything moving, we were able to get even more pictures than we anticipated without feeling rushed! We would highly recommend Paul to anyone looking for a very friendly and wonderful professional to work with. Thank you so much, Paul!! UPDATE: Although long overdue, here is an ‘extra’ gift for you as Andy and I cannot thank you enough for everything that you did to capture the beauty of our wedding day in Boston. We truly appreciate all of the time, effort, and constant communication throughout the entire planning process. From start to finish, we knew we made the best choice to have you as our photographer. The bridal party, and all our guests, absolutely loved your professionalism and approach with everything. Every time we look through our pictures, we are reminded how lucky we were to have such an amazing day. They are even better than we ever could have envisioned! We are so grateful and love that we can relive our wedding day through the amazing pictures. You are truly an incredibly talented photographer, and a real pleasure to have worked with. Thank you so much. Stefanie & Andrew
From my first meeting with Paul roughly two years ago to our wedding, he was kind, professional, and all around great! Through a few emails and a phone call or two, Paul took the time to get to know us in effort to get the best shots possible on our wedding day. Paul shot our wedding at The Century House, and he did such a great job getting all the shots we wanted and some we didn’t even know we wanted! He is a mastermind and truly an artist. Paul really took the time to get to know everyone in our bridal party and even knew names of all our family. He was extremely organized and very direct in a super-friendly way! He knows what he is doing! We are so happy with everything. Thank you so so much Paul!!! Nichole & John
Paul is amazing at what he does. We got married at Greywacke Meadows and he makes sure you feel special and relaxed on your day. He gets the job done and isn’t in your face making things comfortable. He takes all of the photos you need and does a great job doing it. We didn’t feel as if we were in the spotlight and really liked that. We used Paul for both engagement and wedding photos and would highly recommend using him as your photographer! Thank you, Paul! Bethany & Kendall
Paul is amazing!! We got married at Jimbo’s in Brant Lake and used him for both our engagement shoot and wedding. He is an absolute pleasure to work with. The perfect combination of professional and fun! He makes sure that you are enjoying every minute of your wedding while snapping fabulous photos. He’s not afraid to get down on the ground and roll around in order to get the best shot possible. We are so happy that we chose Paul to be our photographer! One of the best decisions we made!!! Jayme & Andrew
Paul was an incredibly professional and all-around wonderful photographer. Not only did he get every single shot we requested, and some we didn't that we will cherish forever, he was also able to help both my husband and I remain calm and focused on the reason of the day - to celebrate our love. The pictures came out beautiful and we cannot thank him enough for everything! I would recommend him as a photographer to anyone and everyone! Paul was phenomenal and so easy to work with! Lindsay & Mike Wedding
Paul was amazing. He not only took beautiful pictures on our wedding day (we got married at The Lodge on Echo Lake) but helped run the show too. Being a typical bride, I was running very late, and Paul was so kind and polite and helped things run so smoothly so we didn’t get stressed. It was like having a second wedding coordinator! He took such amazing photos of my husband and I and that we are in love with. The photo quality is absolutely outstanding and the moments he captured throughout our wedding will live with us forever. I’m so so thankful our venue recommended Paul. He helped make our day perfect!! Caitlin & Michael
WOW!!!!!! ALL OUR PICTURES ARE AMAZING!!!!! Thank you soooo much Paul!! And thank you for being a part of the best day of our lives!! Also, thanks for the beautiful canvas that just arrived for Christmas. We can’t believe how you managed to capture so many pictures throughout our day at Jimbo’s and we didn’t even know you were there at our reception party. All our family and friends are astonished too with the incredible quality and the way you made everyone laugh. We are obsessed with everything!!!!! Ciara & Dereck
Photography is arguably one of the most important aspects of your wedding day. We decided to meet with Paul based on friends' recommendations and knew right away we wanted to work with him for our wedding at Greywacke Meadows. He is warm, full of good ideas, and had a variety of affordable packages we could choose from. On the wedding day, he put the bride at ease right away and made everyone laugh constantly during the obligatory family photos. During the reception, he operated in the background to capture meaningful moments, while also taking requests from us for pictures with certain guests we wanted pictures with. We are very happy with Paul and how easy everything was! Thank you for making our day perfect. Jaime & Craig
The photographer is a big part of the wedding day, and it was truly a pleasure having Paul as ours at Fort William Henry. We were initially impressed with his charisma and professionalism in beginning conversations and were impressed again when he took the time to learn family member’s names and relations and was able to quickly put names to faces come our wedding day. This helped him to do a great job in making sure we got all the photos we wanted and kept everything moving right on schedule. He also had great ideas for creative photos and timelines of who should be ready where and when, and he helped coordinate it day of perfectly. Paul really helped maximize our experience by giving us private time while still capturing every moment. Just about everywhere we looked, Paul was there taking photos. We were just able to enjoy our day and let Paul work effectively with the rest of our wedding professionals to have a very organized, stress-free, and most importantly a fun wedding. Thank you, Paul. Ariel & John
Enjoying our wedding (we got married at Franklin Plaza) was the most important thing to us and Paul made sure that happened. He knew we didn’t want to pose for a lot of pictures, but wanted the special moments captured as they happened. We got through our family group pictures in no time, so we could enjoy the majority of our cocktail hour and be together with all our guests. Paul was wonderful and made everything very easy and worry-free. UPDATE: Paul, thank you SO MUCH!! We absolutely love all our pictures. Every free moment I have throughout my day is spent looking at these pictures!!! We are astonished how many beautiful moments you captured and cannot thank you enough for everything. We will be sending back selections for our album once we look through them about 100 more times!! Lindsey & Zach
Paul was absolutely the perfect match for our lake wedding in Ticonderoga!! He knew exactly what he was doing and made our wedding day completely stress-free despite all the rain. He always responded in a timely manner which can be difficult as we live in North Carolina. I especially love that he knew each family member by name and even made my two pups enjoy having their pictures taken :) Thank you Paul for everything and being so amazing! Elizabeth & Jeff
Working with Paul Saunders was an amazing experience. While managing so many different moving pieces in preparing for our wedding (we live in Chicago), selecting Paul as our photographer was easily one of the best decisions we made. He was incredibly responsive and supportive, both during the weeks leading up to our wedding and on the day of. With his wealth of experience in our location (Lake Placid, NY), he was able to make great recommendations for where to take pictures and how to coordinate the entire day. My husband and I had such a fantastic day and I know a big reason for that is because Paul was there documenting each and every moment. Thank you, Paul, for everything! Cassidy & Bradford
My husband and I highly recommend Paul Saunders Photography. We have never been big on taking pictures, because we don’t consider ourselves very photogenic, and we tend to hate the pictures that we take together. However, after the amazing job Paul did with our engagement photos, we have been so excited to receive our wedding photos. For our wedding at Canfield Casino in Saratoga, the cocktail hour began immediately following the ceremony, and we were using this hour to take a lot of our individual and group shots. It was very important to me that I did not miss all of our cocktail hour, because we wanted to enjoy some time with our guests listening to the live music and enjoying the food and drinks. Paul knew this, and he worked so efficiently and kept our very large bridal party and our family members moving along. We were able to get all of the pictures we wanted taken, and we still made it back for half of our cocktail hour. There were several times throughout the night where I saw perfect photo opportunities, and Paul was there capturing the moment each-and-every time; he doesn’t miss a thing! Not only was Paul the best photographer we could have ever asked for, but he also offered us such great advice on so many other parts of our wedding day, which kept everything running smoothly. Some of the advice that Paul provided us with included organizing perfect timelines for the girls to get their hair and makeup done (this was important since I had 15 girls getting ready with me). He also suggested when I should have my florist drop off our flowers, when the groomsmen should arrive at the ceremony, when the girls should be getting into the bus, and even the perfect spots for us to stand at our ceremony site for the best lighting for pictures. I am not the type of bride who knew exactly what to do and how I wanted things done, but my husband and I knew that we could trust Paul’s suggestions, so we went with every single suggestion he made. I have no doubt that we will be so happy with our wedding photos. Our engagement shoot took place on a very cold, windy day with drizzling rain (we made the choice not to cancel it), and in just an hour Paul had managed to take hundreds of photos that we absolutely loved; we still can’t narrow it down to our favorites! We honestly can’t say enough great things about Paul, and we highly recommend him!! Kelly & Zack
Working with Paul was an amazing experience! My husband typically doesn’t like having his picture taken, especially when it is a ‘staged’ photo. Paul made us both feel very comfortable because he took the time to get to know us as a couple, our families, and knew exactly what pictures we would want and avoided all those cheesy looking shots. Paul was so knowledgeable about other parts of our wedding, as well, and helped us make everything better with some of the suggestions he made. For example, he knew neither of us really enjoy being the center of attention, so he suggested we invite other couples to dance with us part-way through our first dance, which we did! He also knew how much our dog meant to us and he helped us create a plan so that our dog could be a special part of our family pictures at our country club. Paul’s knowledge of photography and of weddings in general made our day run smoothly without anyone missing a single second of the day. We are so thankful for Paul and all our beautiful pictures! Danielle & Jake
Just had our engagement shoot with Paul in Saratoga Springs. The photos are everything I dreamt of and more! Paul was very attentive with any email I sent and always very professional. He made me and my fiancé very comfortable during our session. After seeing how beautiful our engagement pictures are, I’m so excited to have him shoot our wedding. Paul is brilliant. Ashley & Andrew
Paul was amazing!! We live in Nevada but got married in the Finger Lakes and had no reason to worry about anything with Paul preparing long-distance for your day. He arrived early and ready to work right away. From the very start he was taking photos, gathered us all together in a huddle and told us exactly what to do, asked all the right questions and gave us very helpful tips. I love how promptly he responds to emails and his personality is just the greatest. I would HIGHLY recommend Paul to anyone getting married who wants a wonderful professional to work with. Kendra & Edward
Choosing Paul as our photographer was one of the best decisions, we made for our wedding day. Paul is not only a talented photographer, but his sense of humor and high positive energy were a great extra to add to our wedding day. We got married at in Lake Placid and highly recommend Paul and guarantee that you will not be disappointed. We were just so happy with everything. Demi & Pat
Paul is such an amazing photographer! He made our beautiful, special, and stressful day at Welch Allyn Lodge even more special and less stressful! He was so professional but was able to keep everyone laughing at the same time! We had a very large wedding party, and he was able to keep everyone's attention and on schedule, so we were able to enjoy the last half of cocktail hour. He also was really great with our family members who had their own ideas about what kind of pictures they wanted. He was able to balance everything beautifully. Many of our guests complimented Paul and told us they couldn't believe he was the only photographer because he was everywhere getting amazing shots all at the same time! Paul is truly passionate about what he does and works so hard. We are so lucky and grateful to have had him be a part of our big day. Paul is definitely someone I would recommend over and over again to anyone looking for a phenomenal wedding photographer! Thank you, Paul! UPDATE: I’m lost for words. Thank you SO much!!! I am obsessed with all the pictures. They are beautiful and amazing and so much more than we expected!!! You did an absolutely AMAZING job. We can't thank you enough for capturing our big day the way you did!!!! Kat & Dave
Paul was great! He had wonderful ideas for photos, truly listened to us and what we wanted to do, and his extensive experience took a lot of anxiety out of our wedding planning. He was very organized, flexible, and helped our wedding day go very smoothly. We had a church wedding and reception at Hiland Country Club and Paul made sure we didn’t miss any of our day. Can't recommend him highly enough! Kelly & Charlie
My husband and I could not be more pleased with choosing Paul as our photographer for our mid-week wedding at Burke Mountain in Vermont! From the very beginning he was warm, personable, and made us feel at ease. He answered all of our questions promptly and made an effort to get to know more about us before our wedding. He was so professional, beautifully captured our day, and most of all, his energy, optimism, and calm demeanor were a joy to be around on our special day! We would enthusiastically recommend Paul to any couple looking for a photographer who does everything right. Priya & Kyle
My husband and I had Paul as our photographer for our wedding in Albany. The day started off with rain and I was so nervous and anxious seeing our ceremony was outside. Our venue we booked for both our ceremony and reception had a beautiful background and we had our Harley Davidson outside for the ceremony and pictures. I got to the venue and the sun started to shine and the weather became beautiful. Paul came over to the limo and just spoke to me in the nicest tone telling me everything is going to be fabulous and beautiful, and the weather is going to be wonderful too for our wedding. He was an awesome photographer and made everything go smooth and on time. Paul made sure to get our pictures done quickly and professionally so we could relax and enjoy the last half hour of cocktail hour before the reception and fun began. Our family and friends thought he was great and very funny. He has a great sense of humor. We would definitely recommend Paul for any type of photography you would need. Paul is awesome, great, and quite a guy. Kim & Kevin
Paul was a fantastic photographer for our wedding at The Olde Tater Barn. His bubbly personality was making everyone laugh and enjoy the pictures. He was very creative with his shots, and he was even able to get all our pictures outside before the rainstorm came. Paul made the wedding day go very smoothly and I didn't have to worry about a thing. He does his best to make the day stress-free. He made sure he got all the pictures we wanted, and he pays attention to the details. He is very responsive and thorough in his emails, and he is also very accommodating. My husband and I are so happy we chose Paul as our photographer, and we would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a top professional photographer. Kate & Mike
My fiancé and I weren't going to get engagement pictures done but decided that we should just to be 100% sure of our photographer before our wedding since we are planning a wedding out of state and have had nothing to go by other than other people’s reviews. We are SOO happy that we did end up having an engagement shoot. Paul was such a pleasure to work with both through the planning process and the day of the shoot. He even helped us pick out an amazing castle venue in the Adirondacks for our pictures. He was on time, professional, and we both had a lot of fun taking pictures with Paul. The photos came out absolutely beautifully, just stunning and everyone loves them and now my fiancé and I have some gorgeous pictures to admire while we patiently wait for our wedding to get here. I can't wait to have Paul photograph our wedding in Vermont as I know the pictures will be spectacular! Thank you, Paul for everything! Sarah & Chris
I am so happy we went with Paul for our wedding day at Franklin Plaza. He was right on time for the big day. He made sure to capture photos of everything without me having to ask once. He made sure that we got photos with all of our close family and, perhaps most of all, he made the day so easy for me. I didn’t have to think about anything because he was on top of all of it. After the wedding, my father even made a comment about how Paul “ran his a** off” all night long, making sure he got as many photos as possible. If you’re looking for a hardworking man who is a professional throughout go with Paul! My bridal party also loved him and said that they made them all feel relaxed and comfortable! Nicole & Jeff
I cannot say enough good things about Paul Saunders Photography. EVERY interaction with Paul was wonderful from first meeting, to answering any question I had via phone or email, to the wedding day. From day one, Paul put us at completely at ease and assured us that all we would have to do is enjoy our special day. He was so knowledgeable and professional. We finalized plans about a week or so prior to the wedding and he asked questions about our families and what was important to us. He was very timely on the wedding day and remembered everybody's name and all of the special photos we wanted. Everything we asked for he did and more. It is 4 weeks out and my wedding guests are still talking about how great the photographer was - especially my 89-year-old grandmother! Paul was so personable and friendly, and everybody loved him. I cannot wait to see our photos from this amazingly talented man. Jaclyn & Stephen
Paul is the man!! He took the time to talk to us about how we envisioned the day, what we wanted and how we felt with style and what we didn’t want on our day. He had already shot our engagement pics at Saratoga track, and we knew he was a perfect fit. On our wedding day he kept everything calm and told us to enjoy ourselves, each other and not miss anything. He was with us the entire day just like a dear friend. Just delighted with everything and how wonderful Paul was as he made our wedding experience perfect. Christine & Scott
