Stellar Photography & Event Planning, LLC is a veteran-owned husband-and-wife team based in Stillwater, NY. Serving the Capital Region and beyond, we specialize in heartfelt wedding planning and timeless photography for couples who want a day that’s memorable, meaningful, and stress-free.
We’re Daniel and Kayla Archer—and our story is the heart behind our business.
Daniel discovered his passion for photography while serving in the U.S. Navy. From overseas cities to quiet coastlines, he developed a love for capturing genuine moments that tell powerful stories. Kayla planned their entire wedding in just two months while Daniel was deployed on active duty. That whirlwind experience showed us how magical—and manageable—wedding planning can be with the right support.
Now, we bring that same dedication and love to every couple we serve.
What We Offer:
Whether you need a full planning team or someone to capture your wedding day beautifully, we’re here to help at every stage of the journey:
• Wedding Photography – Candid, emotional, and true-to-you. We focus on real moments over posed ones, with packages that include engagement sessions and customizable upgrades.
• Wedding Planning & Coordination – From full-service planning to month-of coordination, we handle the details so you can focus on the joy. We also assist with pre-wedding parties and engagement events.
• Rental Décor – Need signage, ceremony pieces, or welcome displays? Our inventory is available to elevate your wedding aesthetic without the stress of sourcing it all.
We also proudly offer flexible payment options, including Buy Now, Pay Later plans, because everyone deserves the wedding they dream of—without financial overwhelm.
Why Our Clients Love Us:
We treat every wedding like it’s our own. We’re not just here to take pictures or keep the timeline running smoothly—we’re here to celebrate with you, calm the chaos, and make your vision a reality.
Kayla is known for her organization, emotional intuition, and ability to bring calm to even the most high-stress situations. Daniel is known for making couples feel comfortable in front of the camera and for delivering galleries full of laughter, love, and unexpected magic.
When you work with Stellar, you get more than vendors—you get a team that cares.

Kayla and Dan of Stellar Photography and Event Planning are truly some of the best people to have by your side during wedding planning. From the moment you start working with them, you feel like you’re in good hands. Kayla’s attention to detail is incredible, and it gives you full confidence that everything you’ve envisioned will come to life exactly the way you imagined.
Their photography is just as impressive. You never have to ask if they’re getting the pictures that matter at such important events. They have a strong work ethic and somehow manage to keep things calm, fun, and stress-free all at the same time. They’ll make you laugh, help you feel at ease, and bring a steady presence to a day that can feel overwhelming.
I honestly wouldn’t want anyone else handling something so important. They’re the real deal.
