What 617 Media Solutions does

Scarinzi Media, doing business as 617 Media Solutions, is a privately held, family-owned multimedia studio headquartered at 2042 Owego Road, Vestal, New York. The company is co-owned and operated by husband-and-wife team Nate and Lauren Scarinzi and employs approximately 9-10 people serving the Upstate New York region, primarily around Binghamton. Its core services span wedding photography and videography, corporate and commercial photography, branding (logo, web, print, and marketing collateral design), Magic Mirror photobooth rentals, and PhotoLife portrait sessions including newborn and cake smash work. The team is structured around lead photographers/videographers (Nate, Lauren, Aaron, Stefan, Guppy), in-studio editors (John, Brandan), and photobooth attendants (Anthony, Jon), with Dan serving as an omnichannel content specialist.

Revenue is generated exclusively through one-time, quote-based project work paid per event or branding engagement, with pricing not publicly disclosed and packages described as fully customizable. The company has not raised external funding, has no parent company, and operates from a single physical studio with regional on-site service delivery at weddings, venues, and client locations across Upstate New York. Customer acquisition relies on The Knot marketplace, Google and Facebook reviews, and a referral network of regional wedding and B2B partners (e.g., DoubleTree Binghamton, En-Joie Golf Club, VanCott Jewelers, Ever After Binghamton Bridal). The firm has received The Knot Best of Weddings recognition in 2020, 2021, 2022, and 2023 and Hall of Fame status, providing vertical-specific credibility in the regional wedding services market. Underlying technology consists of standard photography and videography equipment and Magic Mirror photobooth hardware; there is no disclosed software platform, AI capability, or proprietary technology stack.

Scale indicators2 records

Recent moves5 records

Expansion highlights4 records

Others

• HoneyBook: Business management SaaS widely adopted by wedding and event professionals; comparable to Scarinzi Media's booking, consultation, contract, and invoicing workflows and either a partnership channel or an emerging substitute for parts of its back office.
• SmugMug: Portfolio, gallery, and print commerce platform serving professional photographers; comparable hosting, client delivery, and print-product capabilities relevant to Scarinzi's portrait and wedding work.
• ShootProof: Photography business platform providing galleries, contracts, and payments to wedding and portrait studios; serves the same professional photographer segment with overlapping back-office and client delivery needs.
• Pixieset: Photographer business platform for galleries, contracts, marketing, and payments; targets the same SMB photographer segment and overlaps with Scarinzi's client workflow needs.
• Artifact Uprising: Premium photo-print and heirloom product company popular with wedding and family photographers; an ecosystem complement that competes for part of the photo-product wallet and a potential partnership channel for Scarinzi Media's wedding and PhotoLife clients.
• Zenfolio: Photographer platform offering portfolios, galleries, and e-commerce to pros; serves wedding and portrait photographers with tools comparable to those Scarinzi Media could adopt.
• Pic-Time: Photographer gallery, print, and sales platform targeting wedding and family photographers; complements Scarinzi Media's PhotoLife and wedding delivery workflows and offers similar vendor-facing tooling.

Direct peers

• Bella Pictures: A national, multi-location wedding photography chain that operated a scaled-studio model directly comparable to a future-ambition version of Scarinzi Media; illustrates both the multi-market expansion path and the execution risk of scaling a personal-brand studio model.

Broad incumbents

• The Knot Worldwide: Operates the wedding vendor marketplace where Scarinzi Media is a featured vendor with Best of Weddings recognition; it shapes discovery, lead flow, and pricing dynamics that small regional studios rely on.
• WeddingWire: Competing wedding marketplace (now operating alongside The Knot under The Knot Worldwide) targeting the same engaged-couple audience and capturing an overlapping set of regional wedding photography vendors.
