Zaitography

solutely stunning, but they reflect the love, and excitement we felt throughout our special day. Zai is more than just a photographer, she has an incredible eye for artistic detail and a natural talent for capturing candid moments that feel genuine and effortless. From start to finish, she was a pleasure to work with—she went above and beyond to get to know us as a couple and find out what was important to us to prioritize the photos. We had a destination wedding in Italy and Zai had immense knowledge and helpful recommendations throughout the planning process. She made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and guided us through each shot with ease. The final images are truly breathtaking, and we can’t stop looking at them! We highly recommend Zai to anyone looking for the best photographer who genuinely cares and delivers incredible results. Words cannot fully express our gratitude. Thank you, Zai for giving us memories we’ll cherish forever. -Love, Nicole & Anthony

to-earth demeanor made it easy for even the most camera-shy guests to feel at ease. Zai was also wonderfully efficient during group photos at the reception, keeping everything on schedule without ever coming across as rude or rushed. Many of our family and friends shared glowing compliments about her presence and work. We couldn’t have been happier with our experience and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a fantastic wedding photographer!

e was amazing at walking us through what to expect and ensuring she understood our vision. After an initial meeting, we both created mood boards to share inspo… believe it or not, our boards matched to exact photos! To say we were on the same vibe is an understatement. On the day of our elopement, Zai was such a calming presence. She fit in seamlessly, adding so much warmth and love. It felt like she was part of the celebration, capturing our most intimate moments in such a natural, unobtrusive way and being just as giddy with excitement as we were. It’s rare to find someone who can make you feel so comfortable, and Zai did just that. When we received the sneak peek photos, we were absolutely blown away—truly better than anything we could have imagined. Every shot was full of emotion and perfectly captured the essence of our day. But the final album... oh my gosh. Zai makes dreams come true. It truly told the story of our love and our day in the most beautiful, organic, artistic way. If you're looking for a photographer who will not only take stunning photos but also become a part of the heart of your celebration, we cannot recommend Zai enough. She’s talented, intuitive, and incredibly kind—just the kind of person you want by your side on your most special day. Thank you, thank you, thank you for everything, Zai! We love you. xoxo

s all feel so at ease in front of her camera, and the moments she captured truly reflect the magic of the day. Zai went above and beyond for both our engagement and wedding shoots, working with the venues and doing whatever was necessary to get the perfect shots for us. The photos are beautiful, romantic, and on brand for the look we were going for. They capture the main event, as well as those sweet in-between moments you want to hold on to forever. I cannot recommend her enough

wn her forever. She made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. Zai is truly the sweetest soul and her work speaks for itself. Her photos are timeless and authentic and I love how she was able to capture so many moments without having to pose us. We are so so excited to receive our full photo album, as our sneaks were to die for. She truly has a gift. I would highly recommend Zai! Xoxo

tate from our wedding venue and Zai was amazing in accommodating our engagement shoot and finding time during her own travels. On the day of the wedding. Zai was truly quarterbacking in a way I'd never expect - from helping getting into my dress to just being a comforting presence - and was incredibly flexible with last minute changes and making what your vision happen. Working with her you can truly tell how much she cares about everyone she works with. We love our initial photos and cannot wait to see the final album!!

Zai travel to where we live to do our engagement photos and she was a joy to work with. She made us feel at ease in front of the camera and really captured our relationship perfectly. Come wedding weekend (in Key Largo), she went above and beyond for us. It was clear to me that she not only wants to capture your day, but she wants to make sure the day is perfect for her clients. Her assistants were great as well! She shot our welcome party and wedding and sent a great sneak peek for us to look through on our honeymoon, which was so special! I also added her film package and I can’t wait to see those along with all of the other photos :) I cannot recommend Zai and her team enough. If you are looking for a photographer that captures the moment and allows you to live your wedding day focusing on your partner, rather than poses/fabricating perfect shots, Zai is your person!!! Her photos captured authentic moments and the joy we felt on our big day. I couldn’t ask for more. THANK YOU ZAI!

utiful, emotion-filled pictures that really show the story of our day. I still can't stop looking at them! As soon as we booked with Zai, she shared helpful tips, and we got an engagement shoot scheduled - which was great to meet her, and also get comfortable in front of the camera (we were so nervous LOL) As the wedding day approached, she made sure she knew all of our needs + wants, and was so responsive. Then, the day of, even with a few unplanned loops thrown our way, she was fabulous, she rolled with everything. She bobbed and weaved through the evening capturing everything we could have hoped for and more. Thank you, Zai ❤️

era, and she was such a pleasure to be around - our family and friends loved her!! Me and my bridesmaids are quite the handful and she fit in seamlessly without missing a beat. Not to mention her photography style is just unmatched. She made sure to give us a sneak peak the day after the wedding and I simply cannot wait to see the rest of our photos. Zai - thank you for being a part of the best weekend of our lives! You are absolutely incredible and we are so thankful you traveled to MA to capture these moments for us. We love you!!

ey are such professionals but also are such a pleasure and so much fun to work with. You will be so happy that you hired Zaitography. Zai will be with you every single step of the process to ensure she brings your wedding vision to life when it comes to capturing all of your special moments. Her photos will leave you in awe and you will have the best time working with her. You will have these photos and memories for life and I guarantee with Zaitography, they will absolutely exceed your expectations!

Zai has a warmth to her that puts you at ease on your wedding day. It's fun to watch her get inspired by a backdrop or excited about a shot. It doesn't feel like she's doing a job and going through the motions — you can tell she really loves what she does, cares about you as a couple, and puts so much heart into her work.

willing to go along with my ideas and vision!! Thank you so much for that!! Thank you for making us look like we aren’t awkward humans!! But most of all Thank you for giving Luis and I the wedding photos of my Pinterest dreams!!!!

ding process. We actually hired Zai before even picking a wedding venue because I fell in love with her work on Instagram (and she helped us pick the venue). She somehow made my camera-shy husband feel at ease and confident behind the lens. She captured moments of our wedding day that allow us to look back and relive those same emotions all over again. We are obsessed with the way our photos came out and have been told by friends/family that the photos could be in magazines or still frames from a movie! She’s insanely creative and charming. Just the whole package. Chefs kiss. Do yourself a favor, and hire her forreal.

er. What we didn't expect was how she'd feel like family from the moment we first spoke. Zai is radiant and brings her passion for life into every moment and sets the scene perfectly to unlock magical moments. She gracefully navigated every interaction with us and our loved ones. It was as if she had a beautiful vision based on the relationship she had built with us, and she had a perfect plan on how to make it reality. Some moments she'd bring the hype for everyone involved and in others she blended in with the backdrop to capture our most intimate moments. It was also a huge help that she could handle photos with our massive families without even breaking a sweat. As much as we try, we can't fully express just how excellent Zai is. She is more than a photographer. By the end of your experience with her, she's family, and that kind of feeling is something you can only capture by experiencing it yourself.

e time to get to know you; get to know your lover and what makes you both comfortable and happy! She will literally hike the highest part of a mountain to get that perfect shot. The little details that you will forget, (because who doesn’t with such a high stress day!) Zai’s got your back and will remember those small, but important, sweet details. To say she goes ABOVE AND BEYOND, is truly an understatement. Zai pours her heart and soul into her art; not only does it show, it is felt and experienced! Getting married was very emotional for me since both my parents have passed. Zai went out of her way to help me plan this day and it will always mean more than she knows! Thank you for an experience we will never forget Zai! We hold a very special place for you in our hearts!! We love you Zai!! ♥️

engagement session, which went comically awry. My glam was an actual disaster, so Zai grabbed a comb and fully redid my hair. How many photographers you know who are that hands on?! There was so much laughter that day, I remember turning to my partner and both of us letting out a huge sigh of relief as we knew we’d be taken care of on our big day. Sure enough, Zai walked into the door on wedding day with the best energy (and sparkly jumpsuit). She made sure to rub my scented oil on me several times so I locked in the sense memory and reminded both of us to be in the moment in the most beautiful way. Even as tons of family members started to gather during our first look, it felt like we were in our own little bubble and the photos absolutely convey that. We are so blown away by her eye, her attention to detail, light chasing ability, editorial story telling, moment capturing, and best of all, her beautiful spirit. Your wedding photos are the best investment you can make for your big day, and I cannot recommend Zai highly enough.

vendors to giving suggestions on design she really does it all. I can't wait to see the rest of our album because I know it's going to be amazing! Do yourself a favor and choose her!

end look and when I saw Zai’s IG I did not hesitate for a minute she was the one. There is a HUGE difference in the quality of her work and other wedding photographers!!! Huge!! I already liked her before meeting her and after meeting her I like her even more. She captures those special details and natural moments like no other. She is really nice, has a great great and positive vibe. Do not hesistate to choose Zai as your photographer. I will reiterate this, the difference between her work and other wedding photography is outstanding!

ographer. I planned my date around her availability and let me tell you...it was destiny 11.12.22! The first time I met Zai was for our engagement shoot. We were nervous and she made our session super comfortable and fun that at times we forgot that we were being photographed. We stayed talking for hours and bonding which lead to building a trust and comfort for our big day. That day, when I saw Zai arrive, it wasn't my photographer...but rather by friend that was about to capture the most important day of our lives. She is pure magic. We got a torrential down pour right before our reception and Zai didn't skip a beat. Her energy was contagious and we all made the best of it. Zai, thank a thousand times for being so amazing. Your professionalism and passion far beyond exceeded our expectations. You are worth every penny! I highly recommend Zai for any occasion that you want to memories to be treasured forever. And now.... bring on Spain 2023! Love ya - Yeline & Mikey

nd family keep texting me and saying how amazed they are with the photos they’ve seen so far from Zai. My husband and I are so happy we chose to work with her. She was an absolute pleasure to have at the wedding. We had a “big fat Indian wedding” with 3 events and Zai was at all of them. When I got a bit stressed out, Zai's calm demeanor helped to calm me down. She also worked well with the chaos and with guests who decided to also bring their pro cameras and ignore the “unplugged ceremony” sign. Zai expressed to us that she felt touched seeing our family and friends spend time learning and performing dances for us at our sangeet. It not only brought us to tears realizing that we felt so loved, but it also brought Zai to tears. Which we both found so special that she was able to enjoy that moment with us, our family, and friends. Zai is not just a photographer, but a lifelong friend to us, after all she did just experience the most important (and best) weekend of our lives. If any of my friends need a photographer, Zai will 100% have my recommendation. So far, we have only seen the sneak peeks - I cannot wait to see the final product!!!

ne else was enjoying the cocktail hour. She captured that serene, intimate time and everything from the day including sweet moments together & with our loved ones so beautifully. Everyone who has seen our gallery has been blown away by her art. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, Zai!

r medium and is knowledgeable about what techniques can be utilized to capture not just the moment, but the mood. You and your fiancé have a magic that brings you together, it's real and it's highlighted in the details. Zai not only captures the essence of these moments but her poised and relaxed personality put you at such ease that the shoot feels natural and fun! You don't have to be a professional model, or even ever had photos taken of you before, to have the most dreamy wedding (or engagement!) photography. Zaitography should be your one stop for all of the once-in-a-lifetime moments you want to cherish forever. Thank you, Zai!! Love Matt & Mel Silverman <3

oments. I booked her within the week. Her work speaks for itself. She doesn't just take pretty pictures, or pose you in flattering poses and lighting; she truly aims to capture how you felt, what the day meant. It's so obvious when she's working with you that she really looks for ways to relate, make you comfortable, and genuinely becomes invested in you and your day. Zai isn't just a photographer, that title seems so underwhelming for what she does and who she is. I always knew that one of the most important things for me in regards to my wedding would me the images I could look back on through the years. I wanted to look at them and be transported back into the moment, relive it, remember the emotions we were going through. Zai delivers exactly that, and so much more. I could sit here and praise her and her work forever, but cut it short. For real... she's the best.

e things about Zai and her team. She is lovely and a pleasure to work with.

t session and she made us feel like ABSOLUTE superstars on our wedding day!! She's professional, punctual but kind, and feels like a long-time friend after only spending a few hours with her. We can't recommend Zai enough for your wedding - her talent is unmatched!! We have not enough words to thank her <3

r ALL our vendors - if that does not speak volumes, or not something you care about, she's not the photographer for you. Her art speaks for itself, it is genuine, real, and unique to each couple. Zai and her art are the closest thing to euphoria that you will feel before your "I Dos". Zai went above and beyond what I assume are photographer duties and was an ESSENTIAL part of my day and more importantly of my PLANNING! She has so much experience with brides, couples, weddings, and does not gatekeep any information that can make your life a little easier for one of the craziest days of your life. She was extremely communicative and informative every step of the way. Her spirit brought light and laughter to our very awkward engagement shoot - because my husband and I were sweating weirdos lol We are extremely grateful and beyond satisfied with Zai and her work.

ai. Through my photographer research, Zai’s portfolio was the only one whose photos you could look at and actually feel something and feel a stranger’s moment. How special is that?! Zai is the most unreal photographer who more than captured our moments, but our feelings. Exactly and beyond what we wanted. (And this is only after a sneak peek of photos!) For the rest of our lives we get to relive these special, precious moments through Zai’s photographs. Not only that, but Zai has such a special energy too. It really felt like we were old friends. It made it even more comfortable to be in front of her lens. Zai truly has such a gift and we’re so blessed and honored to have had her capture our love.

ay. I immediately called my partner and BEGGED to hire her. I presented her work and he was impressed. She made us feel comfortable in our engagement session adjusting little gestures here and there. On our wedding day, I was stuck in a dissociative state going into power save mode to avoid stress. I came to when I saw Zai walking toward me with open arms to give me the warmest hug. I don’t mean to sound lame, but I teared up with joy and instantly knew everything was going to be okay. She immediately got to work and orchestrated the party throughout the day’s timeline. She carried herself so well despite how many mosquitoes had been out. That didn’t stop her from doing her work and making magic happen. She really is the best. Our album is fantastic and we couldn’t have asked for a better person to capture everything. We can’t wait to hire her again for future life events!

n’t have asked for a better experience with a photographer on our wedding day. First, the quality and style of her photos are objectively beautiful, she has a way of capturing feelings and telling a story through her lens. Second, Zai is extremely prepared ahead of the occasion (probably the most prepared of all the vendors), which shows her professionalism. Third, and likely most important here, Zai listens to you and you and delivers (we spent less than 10 minutes on family photos). Pictures and videography are (in my opinion) the most important piece from a wedding because they’ll last forever. My husband and I are so glad we found Zai who captured our most special moments on our wedding day, and we can’t wait for another occasion so that Zai can tell it through her lens again!

e who won’t just snap pictures of some of the best moments of our lives.. but someone who will create an experience to remember. Zai did that and some. Her personality is incredible.. she was born to do this. Her editing skills are unmatched. Zai includes a pre-wedding shoot in her packages- which at first I didn’t fully understand why.. but who would turn this down!? We spoke for months about the style and inspo I had in mind; I encouraged her to share her ideas as well. Well let me tell you, this shoot changed my life. It was one of the most memorable experiences. She literally put us in role play while shooting and it just made everything feel so epic. She truly loves what she does! This shoot made us as the couple feel so comfortable come wedding day. Zai became like a friend to us. Everything felt more natural. Everything felt right. She delivered above and beyond.. and I truly love everything about her. At the wedding she didn’t bombard us during our intimate moments.. yet she didn’t miss a single thing. Truly a star. An artist. A creative. A real talent. We love you Zai, can’t wait for you to capture all our future special moments. Best photographer ever ! Natalie & Jordan

n or idea if something doesn’t happen the way you expected. Her experience really lends towards helping you with a lot of things “wedding” even if it’s unrelated to photography. Our engagement shoot with her was such a fun experience that not only did we get incredible pictures but great memories of the actual moments; she has an incredible ability to see beauty in the simplest of moments, captures it and creates the most magical keepsakes of those moments frozen in time for her clients.

he’s not a vendor, she’s a ¨friend-or¨. She did an amazing job of making my fiancé feel comfortable having his photo taken, and it really showed how much we enjoyed spending time with her when we got our photos. And then came the wedding, she went above and beyond any of my expectations, and i can’t wait to use her for any future photo opportunities that come my way. If you are even considering Zai, just make the choice and go with her, you will not regret it, she truly is that amazing!

gh for our family and friends, to driving around the national park, making sure we found all the best photo spots. Zai made us feel comfortable and my family loved her! I mean...she belted out Queen with my maid of honor and my mom at the reception. What more can you ask for??? Thank you so much Zai for capturing our forest fairy tail wedding. I would absolutely recommend Zaitography to anyone who wants to have a kind, flexible, fun, adventurous, and amazing photographer!

is reflected in her helpful emails with suggestions & timelines. Also, gets excited to talk about your wedding day visions no matter what time zone she is in! Most importantly is that she just makes you feel comfortable. My favorite thing about Zai is her attention to the little details!

hat family portraits were done quickly and well, and then took us to take some pretty epic pictures. Most of all, she was that photographer that captured it all but was effortlessly flowing around the room without interrupting or being noticeable. I can’t recommend her enough.

expectations. Zai is very professional but the most fun person all at the same time. Having a shoot with her literally feels like hanging out with your friend who just happens to have a camera. As a matter of fact, true story, our wedding guests didn’t even realize she was the photographer, they all thought she was another wedding gust with a dope camera and being that “extra” person that’s all up in the kool-aid lol, she even makes your guests and wedding party feel at ease! Her finesse with the camera is so incredibly natural and she makes it fun and easy no matter how awkward you might feel going into it, she is like a breath of fresh air and takes that anxiety away effortlessly. The next thing you know the shoot is over and you’re left feeling like “wow that was so fun, I don’t want it to be over!” And then you get your gallery and you’re shook, like “wait.. what.. that’s us? But when did we become models?” And then you cry tears of joy because of how in love you are with the photos and how beautifully she captured the most special moments of your life. I think one of my favorite things is her inspiration and vision, her ability to see the magic before she even shoots it. I remember being so worried about my venue because I felt like there were no “pretty” places to take pictures outside.. we walked down to a random graffiti filled ally a block away from our venue, she saw a dirty motorcycle parked on the side of the road and told us to pose.. it’s literally one of our favorite wedding photos. You can 100% trust her vision and be confident that it will turn out amazing! Her style is so organic, magical, romantic, detailed and timeless. We will be cherishing our photos forever and cannot wait for Zai to continue to document our family as we evolve over the years.

d in having BOMB a** wedding photos, laughing the entire day and all the moments leading up to it, or forming a deep, personal connection with your wedding photographer that you will cherish for the rest of your lives, and probably continue to find reasons for her to take photos of you.... this ain’t your gal. She’s way too good for you. There’s a reason Zai’s photos come out amazing each and every time - she truly cares. Anyone can glance at her and see she is passionate about what she does, and she radiates her passion spectacularly at every event. We were able to do an engagement session with Zai prior to our wedding, and I took that as an opportunity to get to know her and see if we would “click”. Clicked is probably an understatement. Our engagement session was at the fair, and my husband and I felt like we were there with a life-long friend. We shared food, rode rides together, and she made us feel so incredibly comfortable behind the camera. She knew exactly what to say to get us to let loose and yield beautiful pictures that truly showcased how much fun we were having with each other. Then, in the weeks leading up to the wedding she helped in any way she could, was actually begging for pictures of my dress when I bought it, and graced me with a F.R.I.E.N.D.S. meme or two lol. The entire time, she just kept saying “I can’t wait to see you both get married.” And you could tell she really meant it. On the day, before she even got to work she gave me a much-needed and long-awaited hug, and having her there was like having another bridesmaid join the party. She got me comfortable enough to take some snazzy pics of me before I put on my dress.... which is saying a lot because I can be incredibly insecure. Right before my ceremony, she could sense how nervous I was and did breathing exercises with me, which I don’t even think she knew how much I really needed. We received our gallery a few short weeks ago, and I’ve seen the whole thing from start to finish just about 100 times now. Yet every time I see another picture, I find one more new detail I hadn’t seen in the last. Somehow she was able to capture not only the pictures every bride wants to see on their wedding day, but also the ones you’d think no one was watching you for. She captured the joy, laughter, tears, and insurmountable love from all our family and friends. She didn’t miss a beat. I don’t know how she does it, but I do know that I can’t wait for Christmas cards, babies, and everything in between because I have someone who deeply cares about my family and I to capture it all. Ladies- my husband looks like a GQ model in his photos!! PICK ZAI! This is your sign!!

ally knows how to make you feel confident and comfortable behind the camera. Her eye is spot on as she is able to capture truly magical moments and perfect settings that make you relive your special day with the fondest of memories.

We decided to meet her in Asheville and were supposed to do a mountain shoot, but on the day of, we tried to drive to our shoot location and were turned around by park service. Zai was super quick to troubleshoot and find a new location for us to do our engagement photos! I honestly have no idea how she found the spot she did, but it was absolutely perfect and magical. During our shoot, Zai made us feel completely comfortable and at ease. Zai has a presence that makes you feel like you’ve known her your whole life—like she’s a friend trying to capture you at your best, which helped us feel less anxious throughout the shoot. My partner and I had never taken professional photos before, and were honestly VERY nervous, but Zai directed us on posing and gave us prompts to make us feel more comfortable. We left our session saying how excited, thankful, and happy we were to have her as our wedding photographer!
 The photos we received back were absolutely lovely—Zai has a way of capturing you at your best, in a very natural and magical way. Her style is so dreamy and romantic. Hiring Zai was THE best decision we made for our wedding!

nd awesome at what she does. HIGHLY RECOMMEND :)

by the one and only- Zaitography. Not only was Zai communicative throughout the previous cancellations, but she was also incredibly understanding and accommodating. We were so appreciative. Prior to our big day, Zai specified the importance behind this monumental moment in our lives and made it clear that this day wouldn’t be treated like a staged shoot. This was our wedding day after all- and every emotion and moment was to be captured! And that she did... Our photographs are truly legendary. Both my husband and I got full body chills with even the earliest sneak peek and our minds were blown when our final album was delivered. Early in the wedding planning process I had fallen in love with Zai’s style, though I never imagined such magic was possible. Having worked with her twice now, I confidently know it starts with her incredible energy and zen-like persona which allowed us to feel completely relaxed, excited, and naturally confident. Zai’s attention to detail, professionalism, guidance and encouragement while shooting stands unparalleled and her presence alone was such a gift. To now be able to share these incredible moments with our friends and family from afar has been our ultimate blessing, and we will cherish these photographs (and weekend memories) for a lifetime.

would just check out her work right now because this review doesn't even do her pictures justice (wedding, engagement, pregnancy, all events about love). But...I will continue because it's my pleasure to recommend Zaitography in the loudest way possible! This wasn't just wedding photos. It was experiencing every moment organically while witnessing an incredible artist at work. It was personal attention to detail, timing, spontaneous inspiration with every click, paying attention to the precious moments most people don't even notice (the ones that truly matter) while checking off every box of the non-negotiable photos. It was professionalism, warmth, and amazing teaser photos THE NEXT DAY. It was being told "yes, absolutely" with a smile when we asked her last minute to extend the shoot for an hour. It was patience, grace and humor with 5 kids under 7. Not only does Zai have an incredible way with people, but her eye is meticulous and romantic. Of course when you book a photographer for your wedding, you are hoping for those gorgeous shots that capture every special person and every special moment. But Zai brought to the table what my husband and I didn't even know we wanted. She remembered every detail and hustled me along with such warm professionalism when my bride brain was all over the place and running behind. Zai and her second shooter went above and beyond to make sure not only the pictures were perfect, but that our experience taking pictures was epic. We had a blast and were so grateful for her. When the pandemic hit, she spent almost an hour with me on the phone trouble shooting, offering guidance and suggestions. I cannot recommend this photographer enough. She will travel to you and make your photo dreams come true!

t stop looking at these pictures when we first got them. She’s so professional and puts you right at ease. If you have any doubts about hiring her, don’t because you won’t have any regrets and will cherish your photos forever. Really an amazing photographer. 10/10 would recommend to everyone.

Zai was that person. The quality of her talent is breathtaking but her work ethic, character, and personality make working with her worth it! She captured every moment we desired beautifully and authentically just like I always dreamed of. Every moment felt natural and comfortable with her. Zai goes above and beyond what you expect because your day and your love is her passion and it shows in her work. She even offered me something to drink while I was being swamped by guests and always checked in to make sure I was doing well. I’m so grateful Zai said yes to doing my wedding, my day wouldn’t have been the same without her. It’s hard to remember parts of the wedding, like the ceremony because of how fast it goes by and the emotion of it but I’m grateful she captured it all and I can relive it forever. I feel I have gained a life long friend, I’ll be calling her for photos for every stage of our lives. Zai you rock! Brides... you deserve this kind of quality on your day. ❤️
