“Duet, without question, was our favorite vendor to work with. From a simple money drop off appointment to the all awaited wedding day, the care and attention from the team was unmatched. We first had our engagement shoot with Mike and knew after that moment we wanted to work him for our wedding day. We absolutely loved the photos from that session and knew our wedding day photos would be nothing short of beautiful. His tenure and experience truly shows, a calm and confident photographer- a demeanor needed when having your photo taken is not second nature! He handled our extensive family portrait shot list with grace, photos we prioritized and are forever grateful to have them. There is not a day that goes by that we don’t look back at photos from our wedding and for him, we are thankful. Hanel, the studio manager, was with us every step of the way. Every meeting, form, money drop off appointment and email was met with care and patience. He made all the difference in making Duet a vendor that was a true pleasure to work with. We went with video and can’t watch it back without crying. Thank you to our videographer Mike and our second photographer, Rachel, for being so kind and capturing the candid moments. When I look back on my wedding day, having them around brought me peace in knowing I was working with a best in class photography/videography group. Could not recommend them enough! Effortlessly amazing.”

“We are so happy we chose Studio 27 for our wedding photos! They are both knowledgeable and professional as well as offer great packages including a whole team day-of. Truly a one stop shop for all things photography and videography on our wedding day. My fiancé and I chose Boy Wonder as our main photographer. He has such a great eye for capturing photos that are far from cliche and feel more like art. For our engagement shoot, we discussed inspiration ahead of time and he asked what we like and didn’t like in the inspiration photos to make sure they were exactly as we expected. We still get compliments from family and friends for how amazing our photos turned out. We booked a package with Studio 27 that included save the dates, photo and video, and album and thank you cards. Our wedding photos came out absolutely beautiful despite a hiccup in our timeline. The entire team we worked with (Boy Wonder, Kunal, Paul, John and Emma) worked so hard all day and night to deliver a stunning finished product. They paid careful attention to our inspiration photos and shot list. Not only did we receive photo and video of us, but also our guests and all of the details and decor throughout the day. We will cherish these photos and videos of ourselves, friends and family forever! Studio 27 not only does great work but is an extremely trustworthy business you can rely on for such important moments. They also offer a great package with everything you need!”

  • Serves Lawrence, NY

My name's Rachel, but most people call me Rach. I'm a laugher. I talk a little too loud, and sometimes a little too much. A New Yorker, turned Bostonian, turned back to New Yorker. Traveling is my favorite thing...ever. I order in Thai food about three times a week (I know, it's a problem). My glass isn't just full, it's overflowing, and I am committed to capturing the true beauty and joy I see in the world. If you're looking for a photographer who isn't just there to click the button, but to go the extra mile and become pals with, look no further.

“Where do we even start…Rachel is so friendly and easy to talk to – by the end of our very first conversation with her, we felt like we had been friends for years. She has such a light about her that makes you feel at ease in front of the camera (which is huge for us since we’re both very uncomfortable being center of attention) and energized from the liveliness she exudes. We admire her creativity and professionalism (while still being fun, relaxed, and dancing the night away with us!), and was so accommodating, had wonderful suggestions, and was fantastic at corralling our wedding party and family members. Most importantly, she captured the small moments that we didn’t even know were important and would cherish. Rachel took both our engagement and wedding photos and we loved seeing what she captured from two awkward people who were having the time of their lives; they’re beautifully stunning. We love her and will 10/10 use her again in the future.”

“Having Nathalie capture our wedding day was the best decision we made! We had a shoot in Dumbo and she knew all the spots and took her time capturing lovely moments between my Husband and I. The pictures came out AMAZING, the backgrounds, the attention to detail she has. Everything was beyond perfect!”

Hello, I'm Elsie. I'm a New York based photographer with a passion to capture people’s stories in the right light. Like any relationship, we have to vibe. I want us both to be comfortable and excited to work with each other because that’s what you deserve from a photographer. I love margaritas, my house plants, and my dog Arthur. I'm a phenomenal cook, and love bringing people together.

“Elsie was by far our favorite vendor to work with for our wedding! Not only is her work absolutely stunning, but she truly became a friend during the process of us working together. We started working with Elsie when my then-boyfriend had a photographer back out last minute to shoot our proposal -- he reached out to Elsie and she was immediately down to photograph the proposal last minute. We felt so comfortable with her during that shoot that we knew from that moment that we wanted her to be our wedding photographer. Elsie makes you feel so at ease during your engagement and wedding shoots. Neither my husband or myself are particularly photogenic people, but Elsie is great helping us find the right, natural poses AND she's fantastic at capturing organic moments with friends and family throughout the day to really give you that documentary style result. We LOVE her and would recommend her over and over again!”

After ten years as a New York-based photographer, I recently moved to Argentina and now return to NY once or twice a year for weddings. I also photograph destination celebrations across the US, Europe, and South America. I’ve photographed everything from large weddings with packed dance floors to intimate days shared with only a few loved ones. What I love most is getting to know each couple and creating photographs that feel personal, honest, and true to them.

“We had hired Nicole to come on a hike with us in Upstate, NY to photograph our engagement. Not only did she capture beautiful photos, but we had a fantastic time hiking with her and formed a relationship with her, which is a rare find when it comes to vendors! Despite it raining and being foggy, she was a trooper and the pictures turned out amazing - we think even better than if it was sunny! We love both her documentary-style photography and editing style. She really knows how to capture the moment without it being performative! We had so much fun and it didn't even feel like we were in a photoshoot. I was a bit anxious because I don't do well in front of the camera or know how to pose, but Nicole knew exactly how to make me feel comfortable! She was super friendly and professional. We would definitely work with her again, and are currently looking to hire her for our wedding!”

I am a quiet presence who notices what goes unseen. I don’t arrive with a checklist. I arrive with intuition, empathy, and care. Not just as a vendor, but as a trusted friend—someone who listens, who feels, who sees.

“Yanni's is an absolutely amazing photographer! We found him through Zola and instantly connected with him. His picture were absolutely beautiful and were the vibe we always imagined for our wedding day! He was so professional the whole day and was so nice to be around. He was there to capture moments that we thought would be forgotten, but he was always there ready to take all the pictures! As well, he was able to have our pictures edited and back to us within days of our wedding, that's unheard of! We could not be happier with how our wedding pictures came out. Seriously, book him for your wedding! You will not be disappointed! Thank you so much Yannis!”

Leanne Gelish Studio 
Rating: 5.0 (1 review)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,200
  • Serves Lawrence, NY

Welcome to Leanne Gelish Studio! I am a wedding photographer on Long Island, New York who specializes in capturing real moments in an artistic way. A born story-teller, I believe your wedding day should be captured like a story. After all, it’s the love story you always wanted and it’s worth remembering the little details.

“My husband and I had a fairytale courtship. We started dating in February of 2019 and were engaged by June. We both felt a lot of stress and pressure from both sides of our family as soon as we announced our engagement. We decided that we wanted our wedding day to be just about us, and we would do a reception later on that would include our family and friends. We were engaged on Sunday June 9th and by Monday I was scouting the internet for photographers. I’m not from Long Island, so I’m not familiar with vendors here. However, being the daughter of two photographers, I knew that the most important part of my wedding (besides the bride & groom) was the pictures. I reached out to so many photographers and no one was the right fit. We were under a time crunch, so some weren’t available on short notice. I wanted my pictures taken with a Nikon camera, not all vendors are loyal to that brand. Then I found Leanne. Not only were her pictures GORGEOUS, she took pictures with a Nikon, and she was available! Under her excellent guidance, I reached out to the local town hall and secured our wedding date 7/12/19. Leanne was up for the challenge of taking pictures of a couple she had never met at a wedding in just over a month. Over the course of that month she made us feel so comfortable. She had so many beautiful and creative portraits planned, and also listened to all of the images I wanted. We asked her to be our witness at the wedding ceremony. It just felt right. The day of the wedding was beyond anything I had ever imagined. Leanne (having never met me) jumped right into action when I was in the middle of a wardrobe malfunction. She then expertly guided us through portraits before, during, and after the ceremony. She gave us the space to enjoy our day and captured our love in such a stunning way. We went to a lovely park after the ceremony for more portraits. We took breaks here and there and unbeknownst to us, she captured those candid, intimate moments that we shared. Those pictures are some of my favorites. My husband isn’t as comfortable in front of the camera as I am, but Leanne was so wonderful in helping him pose and stand in ways that didn’t feel super awkward to him. She even got him up in a tree! We both have that picture as our background on our phones. I really feel like Leanne went above and beyond what I had envisioned. She gave me all of the images I requested, and also made them her own using smoke bombs and prisms and really unique poses. Two and a half years later, Leanne is the only person we trust with taking our pictures. She has also become a close friend of ours. She is the most talented photographer, and we are so lucky that she was the one to capture our special day!”
