“Our experience with George Street was excellent! Their service was professional, timely, and more affordable than some other vendors we were considering. We loved the safety net included with going with a company like George Street. One of my biggest nightmares was worrying about one of our photographers/videographer missing our wedding day. The coordinators provided us peace of mind stating that if an emergency should happen, they would have another staff member come and fill in. The coordinators respond quickly to emails, which was great being so busy working full time while wedding planning. We got our photos back about a month later which was much faster than I was expecting. Our video took another month or so and was so sweetly edited. We got contact information from our photo/video team the week before the wedding just in case we needed to contact them individually. They did a great job helping us capture memories that we will cherish forever”

“I could not be more thrilled with our choice in photographer than Sound Originals! The quality of shots we received from our wedding were stunning, and that is entirely thanks to Kevin. He was so great at working with us to create beautiful, posed shots, but my favorite photos of the night are those were he captured the live moments of joy. Having the ability to have multiple editing styles was so amazing as it led to some beautifully crafted shots with unique lighting.”

  • Photojournalistic style

Hi there! We're the team behind Duet Photography & Video. We're a collection of wedding photographers, filmmakers, designers, and editors. We each have our own story of how we've come to be a part of this incredibly field of wedding journalism. As individual as we are, we're all bound by the same love for our craft – the artistry of blending documentary journalism with stunning, creative vision. With over a thousand weddings under our collective belts, we've photographed and filmed weddings of every shape and size imaginable. We can't wait to document your wedding as well!

Awarded Best of Zola
“I used Duet for my June 2025 wedding and had a wonderful experience with them from start to finish. Everything from our first meeting through the weeks following our wedding day was seamless, and the communication throughout the entire process was clear, timely, and professional. My husband and I are both very easygoing and wanted to work with a company that understood our vision, could take charge when needed, but also wouldn’t overwhelm us or constantly pull us away from our celebration for photo opportunities. Duet delivered exactly that. The pre-wedding questionnaire was extremely detailed and was very helpful in making sure we had conversations about our timeline, priorities, and expectations ahead of time. On the wedding day, the lead photographer even came over to us at one point with a checklist on his phone to make sure they had captured all of the group shots we requested. Other than that, they gave us space to enjoy our wedding and worked the room naturally, capturing so many special moments without us even realizing they were there. Once we received our photos and films, Duet was also very receptive to feedback. There were a few photos that had been edited in black and white that I preferred in color, and they were happy to make those changes for me. I did express some disappointment with the length of my edited reception film. I understand that the film is an edited snapshot of the day, but I felt that it was significantly shorter than the average range that had been discussed with us during our prior meetings. That said, Duet listened to my concerns and worked with me to lengthen the film to include specific moments that I requested, which I really appreciated. One thing to keep in mind: make sure you complete your wedding album within one year of your wedding date, as there is a small additional fee if you go beyond that timeframe. Overall, Duet was an amazing company to work with. The entire process was smooth, the communication was excellent, and most importantly, we felt like we could truly enjoy our wedding day while knowing our memories were being captured beautifully. I would absolutely recommend Duet to other couples looking for a photography and videography team!”

We're not a big studio with a team of strangers behind the cameras. We're a husband-and-wife duo who built this business around one thing: making people feel something. We take on a limited number of weddings each year because every couple deserves our full attention, creativity, and energy. No copy-and-paste galleries. No cookie-cutter experience. Just honest photography, real connection, and images that hit just as hard decades from now as they do today.

“My husband and I still can’t stop looking through our wedding photos from Kovy Photo. There’s something different about how they shoot — it doesn’t feel staged or forced, it feels like they just quietly captured our actual day. The photo of my mom crying during the vows, the way my husband looked at me before I even reached him, our friends laughing during the toasts — all of it feels so real when we look back. You can tell they weren’t just taking pictures, they were paying attention to us the whole time. If you’re getting married in Columbus and want photos that actually feel like your wedding and not a photoshoot, Kovy Photo is who you need.”

I'm Michael Anthony, a wedding photographer based in Dallas–Fort Worth, with a second studio in Los Angeles. I shoot across DFW — Dallas, Fort Worth, McKinney, Frisco, Prosper, Plano — and travel for couples marrying farther afield. Nine countries and 1,000+ weddings so far. My approach is editorial and unobtrusive. I document the day rather than direct it, because I want your images to make you feel the moment again, not simply see it. I take a limited number of weddings each year so each one gets real attention. Tell me your date and venue and I'll confirm availability right away.

“From the moment we partnered with Michael Anthony Photography for our client's special day, the experience was nothing short of remarkable. Their team, led by the incredibly talented Michael, delivered an extraordinary level of professionalism and artistry. Jennifer, a true gem in their team, ensured that every little detail was captured beautifully. Her keen eye for detail and her ability to work seamlessly with us as wedding planners made a significant difference. The detail shots she provided were not just photographs, but pieces of art that told the story of the day in a magical way. Furthermore, the efficiency and organization skills of Courtney, their studio manager, were impeccable. She was always on top of everything, ensuring smooth communication and coordination. This level of dedication and attentiveness is rare and was greatly appreciated. The final images were breathtaking, and our clients were overjoyed with the memories captured. Michael Anthony Photography didn’t just take photos; they created a visual narrative of the day that will be cherished for a lifetime. It’s a pleasure to give Michael Anthony Photography a well-deserved 5 stars. Their blend of talent, professionalism, and passion for their craft sets them apart. We highly recommend them to any couple looking for a photography team that goes above and beyond to deliver exceptional results.”

About wedding photographers

How much does a wedding photographer cost?

Wedding photographers early in their careers can cost as little as $1,500. Super experienced photographers, as seen in magazines like Vogue and Vanity Fair, can cost upwards of $30,000. The range is wide, but, in general, you can expect to spend around 10% of your budget on wedding photography. Rates also vary based on wedding length, the services you want, and location. A photographer based in an area with a lower cost of living, for example, will be less than one based in New York or San Francisco.

How much should we tip our wedding photographer?

A good rule of thumb is to tip 10% of their rate, or at least $100. If they’re bringing second photographers or assistants, an additional $50 to $75 per person is an appropriate and nice gesture.

What questions should we ask wedding photographers?

Aside from logistical questions about packages, pricing, and availability, it’s also important to use your conversation to get a sense of their personality. This person will be with you and your loved ones every step of your wedding day, including, if you want, in the dressing room! It’s very important that you and your partner both feel comfortable with them and their working style. Talk about your venue, how you want to feel when you look at your photos, and which photos from their portfolio you like best.
