About

We are Paul and Chelse. Obsessed with telling your story naturally. Fine art and photojournalistic approach which will tell the story of your celebration. Each event is tailored and every couple unique.

Our first step is to meet with clients and outline exactly what they are looking for on the day of their celebration! We always focus on the story, the connections, the details and make it about YOU. Our wedding photography is not about us...it is about you. Before the event we fill out contracts and paperwork with exact arrival locations and times. Making sure no detail is left out. After an engagement session together we both know exactly what to expect! On the day of your celebration we are there of course to photograph your event, but we also do our best to help you through day and put you at ease!

Photography that is bold, fresh, modern, and honest.

We have a studio in Mendon, NY (Fingerlakes region, near to Rochester, NY and Buffalo, NY and available for travel to other destinations.

We offer wedding, engagement, newborn/maternity, family portraits, and boudoir photography and videography.

Contact us soon to see if we still have your event date available! We want to hear all the details!

Best Photography/Videography Team EVER

The Northglow Team was the BEST vendor decisions we made! They were professional, personable and extremely talented! We were very nervous going into our engagement photo session, and they made us extremely comfortable! They joked with us and became our friends instantly! This made the wedding day that much better! All of our bridal party also enjoyed the photographers! I will be telling EVERYONE getting married in the area to book Northglow Photography

One of the best decisions I made during wedding planning was picking Chelse to be our photographer. I considered this one of the most important choices in my wedding planning and I met with at least 8 others. Chelse's portfolio is incredible. What makes Chelse stand out from the rest is that she was able to show us a great portfolio from just one wedding. (Keep that in mind while you're shopping for a photographer! Any photographer can just show you their one or two greats from a variety of weddings.) But an excellent photographer like Chelse can show you all her photos from one wedding that really speaks to her talent. I love the romantic/dreamy quality of her photos (I have no idea what the technical term is haha) and she captures you in the moment. I felt instantly comfortable with Chelse, too. This was VERY important to me because I'm not someone who enjoys getting her photo taken. :)

The day of the wedding was great and Chelse was an all around problem solver the day of. The turn around time on getting our photos back was amazing. She had teasers out right away (which we all know we want instantly) and then the rest of the photos came out within a month and a half. I love the photos from our wedding and I am 100% certain that I will use Chelse again for all our family photos, as well. (Her work with families and babies is just adorable!) I would recommend Chelse over and over, without hesitation!

Chelse is AMAZING. We ended up with hundreds of photos from our wedding day from the moment we started getting ready to the end of the night, and I'm not exaggerating when I say that we love every single one. She (and our second photographer that she brought, that was also amazing) captured every single detail and memory from that day. I'm not sure how she did it, but I feel like she captured every moment and I barely even knew she was there.
Beyond the amazing pictures - she was also an amazing resource to have both through planning and our wedding day. It was like having a friend that had been to hundreds of weddings there to help, give advice and help me keep everything in some kind of order.
Seriously, you would not regret hiring her for a second. Worth every single penny we spent!
