Our experience working with Megan & Kenneth was beyond our expectations! From the moment they both stepped foot at our venue, they made our day 10x better!

On top of this, our photos/video are more than we ever could have hoped for and the turnaround time was QUICK! Megan and Kenneth have true talent and they FREAKING ROCK! We HIGHLY recommend hiring them -- They will make your wedding dreams come true!
"They made us feel comfortable, confident and SEXY!"
- Kaitlin & Jacob, boscobel house & Gardens
They truly went above and beyond as well, one example being Kenneth's gorgeous candid shots of our rehearsal. Megan is unbelievably responsive and always had ideas and solutions, like planning our engagement session through to doing an additional bridal session. Their emails throughout our planning season were so helpful in connecting the dots between what we were planning with other vendors, and what they'd need to know to make the day as seamless as possible. We can't recommend this team enough, and are so grateful for their beautiful work!
"They are talented, organized, and knowledgeable. They are also the nicest people and truly a pleasure to share these moments with."

Wedding Videography and Photography packages
When it comes to Hudson Valley wedding photography and videography, most couples end up hiring two separate teams. That means two different styles, two different creative visions, and a lot of coordination headaches. At Megan & Kenneth Photography, we do things differently. We both shoot wedding photos and wedding video, giving you seamless coverage from a single team that truly works together.
So what does hybrid wedding coverage actually look like? Your wedding photos and your 4-6 minute wedding film feel completely cohesive. Same artistic eye, same documentary style, same authentic storytelling. Because we're not competing for angles or trying to coordinate with strangers, your Hudson Valley wedding day flows more naturally. The result is a cinematic wedding film you'll actually want to rewatch for years to come.
Want to capture every word of your ceremony or preserve those heartfelt toasts? We offer full ceremony video and full speech recordings as add-ons to any wedding videography package.
For couples who want the most comprehensive wedding day coverage possible, we highly recommend adding a third shooter to your photography and videography package. With three creatives working together, you get complete coverage from every angle. That means candid guest reactions during your vows, simultaneous getting ready coverage with each partner, and multiple perspectives on your first dance and reception highlights. It's the difference between beautiful wedding coverage and truly complete wedding documentation where nothing gets missed.
Either way works for us! We’ll be in touch in no time at all to book in a chat with you and, yes, we’re sure Cordy and Phoebe will pop up and say hi.
