Elle and Zach, the married duo behind Kindred, have spent over 10 years documenting weddings with honesty and heart. As an experienced team with a signature point of view, their immersive photography is transportive and energetic and showcases real joy in its purest form.

With backgrounds in fine art and photojournalism, their work feels effortlessly authentic; a mix of street-style spontaneity and editorial sophistication. They take a collaborative approach, building strong relationships with each couple to create images that are both personal and visually refined. Hybrid shooters with a soft spot for film, each photograph carries a story that intimately preserves the small exchanges and unfiltered emotion of a wedding day. Rooted in the charm of New England and the high energy of New York City, Kindred’s images capture iconic scenery and ever-changing seasons with nostalgia and warmth.

Their personal, immersive style has earned them recognition in The New York Times, Vogue, Brides, and Martha Stewart Weddings. In 2020, they were named one of Rangefinder’s 30 Rising Stars, and in 2024, and 2025, they were among The Wed’s “Top 40 Photographers in the US.”
