NYC Wedding photography by Elizabeth Solaka

“A lovely, extremely talented person.”

I’m Elizabeth Solaka, a New York City wedding photographer based in Manhattan serving the five boroughs and the region. Since I began photographing weddings, I’ve included medium format film and have focused on telling a beautiful heartfelt story. This simple approach has kept me inspired year after year. One of my clients said, “There are many difficult decisions to make when planning your wedding, but if I can help you with one of them, it would be this: Have Elizabeth photograph your wedding. You won't regret it.” I’m so grateful for my clients and all of the vendors I work with who make weddings so special. My heart is full.

“I could gush about Elizabeth for days! We chose her for many reasons: her generosity, flexibility, her enthusiasm, her impressive portfolio, and her ability to capture quiet, honest, spontaneous moments. If you are looking for a photographer who will make you, your family, and guests feel at ease, who will capture moments of laughter, tears and silliness, who works with you to ensure that your photos are exactly what YOU envision, and who is so sweet that you'll want to call her a friend, then consider using Elizabeth for your special day. “

My Approach

Since every couple and every wedding story is so different, I never tire of finding new angles, light and perspectives. I remain curious and observant of the special way beauty reveals itself at each wedding. As time passes, I fall more in love with the process and keep adding couples to my circle of friends.

My photography has been recognized for years with WeddingWire and The Knot Couples’ Choice Awards, Martha Stewart Weddings, and Style Me Pretty. It has been featured in The New York Times, Elle Magazine, and many others. You can read what couples say about working with me here.

Elizabeth is an extremely talented photographer. She is able to capture ‘in the moment’ and charming pictures that brought our wedding day to life.

Elizabeth photographed our wedding and we couldn't be happier with the experience and the photographs. She is a lovely, extremely talented person. She is easy to work with and makes everything feel natural. You can tell that she loves her work through her enthusiasm, as well as her attention to detail. I highly recommend Elizabeth to anyone who is looking for a natural experience with beautiful results. - Jessica

We worked with Elizabeth for our wedding celebration in Los Angeles. We wanted to document our wedding with candid and authentic moments, which she did perfectly! She was friendly, easy to work with, and we would highly recommend her for any wedding or event. If you are looking for a down to earth photographer who will capture those magical, spontaneous moments, hire Elizabeth!”
