Working with Sound Originals was a dream! They were incredibly communicative leading up to the wedding, eager to send reminders and answer questions as needed. They listened to our concerns and made sure to prioritize the things we valued- like taking photos outside, getting LOTS of group pictures, and enjoying candid snapshots. The day was unexpectedly rainy, but our two photographers were ready, enthusiastic, and full of creative ideas. They were so fun to work with and incredibly flexible when things got slightly off schedule. We got our photos within a month, and we loved how they turned out. Both the candid and staged photographs were amazing. Our experience was incredible, and we would highly recommend them!

I can’t speak this companies praises enough. From the beginning of booking, the communication was incredible. We requested Agnes for our wedding photographer and were delighted to get her. Both our photographer and DJ were booked through them. They walked you through planning call stages prior to our wedding. Both our photographer Agnes and our DJ Mark Allan called us directly to confirm details, and go over timelines and our direct requests. We were impressed with Agnes from start to finish of our day. She communicated well, gave amazing direction, and did her very best with our rowdy group full of kids and ensured that we could get pictures that will last a lifetime. She kept us comfortable, calm, at ease and still managed to make the experience incredible regardless of the rain. DJ Mark Allan was everything we were hoping for. Organized, timely, and fun. He was very helpful with helping us get messages out to the guests, playing the brides most requested songs, and keeping the guests and vibe fun and exciting. He was amazing and loved having him as our wedding DJ.

From the moment we met and signed with Duet we were so happy!! Hanel was our main point of contact and kept us well in the loop up until the very last minute before the wedding. I had a lot of shots and things I wanted to make sure were captured and he graciously took note of all of them and made sure to get every single one!! Every single picture from the morning, to the church to the reception was perfect. They made sure to get all the family shots, solo shots and such beautiful candid shots. My grandmother unfortunately was unable to attend our wedding, which was devastating to me. The team made sure we were able to go back to get photos with her at my house and I am so grateful for that! I also had a very specific vision for the highlight video and they out did themselves with what they created. All the footage was amazing, they used a drone to capture outside footage which was incredible My husband and I are so happy we chose Duet and we are so happy we have these wonderful memories of our favorite day. Can't recommend them enough!!!

I’m Stamati Boundouris, the photographer behind SBphotography, a New York–based studio specializing in documentary-style wedding photography for couples in NYC, Long Island, and destination locations. My approach is centered on storytelling and capturing genuine emotion, focusing on the real moments that make each wedding unique. From the quiet anticipation before the ceremony to the energy of the dance floor, I document the day in a way that feels natural and timeless. I’m based in New York and also photograph destination weddings in Greece, blending artistic creativity with an authentic, documentary perspective.

Professional, responsive, friendly, and organized, Stamatis was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. His work is exceptional, artistic, and truly detail-oriented, delivering high-quality photos that were absolutely worth every penny. He made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera and captured every important moment naturally. Throughout the day he remained calm, supportive, and helped guide us so everything flowed smoothly. We couldn’t be happier with the experience. Stamatis is incredibly talented and genuinely cares about his clients. The photos exceeded our expectations and perfectly captured the emotion of our special day. Highly recommended.

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!

Rachel Leiner Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (5 reviews)

  • 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.

Rachel shot our city hall elopement and we are so happy that we found her! From start to finish, Rachel was incredibly knowledgeable, kind, professional, and (most important to us), fun and easy-going. From suggesting locations and helping us schedule our day to sharing a pretzel outside city hall with us, to actually being our witness, Rachel helped us have the perfect wedding day. We love our photos! Not only did Rachel capture all the special moments we shared together, she really told the full story of the day. When we look at the photos, we have so much fun remembering all of the little details and unexpected New York adventures. Neither of us particularly love pictures of ourselves, but Rachel made us feel so comfortable and natural - sometimes we forgot she had a camera at all. We loved working with, meeting, and spending time with Rachel - book her now, you won't be sorry!

As a wedding photographer with a photojournalistic approach, I specialize in capturing the authentic, unscripted moments that tell the true story of your day. My style blends documentary photography with an artistic edge and a playful touch. I believe in honest photography that goes beyond the surface to capture what’s real. When artistry meets authenticity, that’s where the magic truly happens.

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!

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!

Your memories are precious, and they deserve to be preserved in a way that’s as unique as you are. Click the link below to inquire about booking!

There aren’t enough kind things to say about Maddie!!! She was incredibly helpful and thorough on the wedding day and did such a good job capturing my husband and I’s personalities. We talked a bunch leading up to the day and I shared with her some of my “visions” for the pictures (lol) but mainly I just told her that I wanted her to capture the day as it was and let the pics speak for themselves, which they DID!! She also came in hand with not only a digital camera but a polaroid and a film cam as well. I couldn’t believe how stunning the pictures were. I highly highly recommend Maddie to anyone looking for a photographer. She’s such a fantastic person and I’m so grateful to know her!!!

  • 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!

When I was looking for a photographer and videographer, I was completely lost. The photographers I spoke to before I found George Street were way out of my budget and the style wasn’t exactly what I was looking for. When I found George Street, not only did I get incredible photographers, an amazing videographer but also constant communication, all my questions answered, a BEAUTIFUL album I’ll always cherish and so so so much guidance that God knows I needed. I 1000% recommend George Street Photo and Video to every upcoming bride. You will not regret it.

After graduating from Parson's School of Art in Manhattan, I worked as a fine artist, my work involved photography and photo manipulation. I quickly discovered that I loved and excelled at photo retouching, and went on to work for some of the best photo retouching studios in New York. In 2009 I shot my first wedding, it was a dear friend of mine and the beautiful photos were featured in one of the biggest wedding magazines. I realized that I had found my calling and have been producing stunning wedding photographs with my amazing team and clients ever since.

Awarded Best of Zola
Emma and her team are FANTASTIC! My photographer was one of the first vendors I booked for my wedding and upon our first meeting I knew they were the perfect fit. I went with Massimo as the lead photographer who also did our engagement shoot. It was so nice to meet with him and see his work before the wedding. Leading up to the big day they would check in to make sure all details were finalized. My wedding was very unique in that I had an Indian wedding and traditional wedding all in one day with multiple outfit changes. We had a lot to cover and Emma's team was more than up for the challenge. We had 2 photographers including Massimo and a videographer. They were extremely organized and creative to capture shots I would have never thought of on my own. When the previews came in I was in shock of how beautiful they were and now that I have all of the photos and videos I get to relive the day all over again with friends and family. I could not recommend Emma and her team enough for weddings and other big life moments!

We couldn’t be happier with our experience working with Ihor. He photographed both our engagement near Beacon, NY and our wedding in Glen Ridge, NY at the Glen Ridge Women's Club, and the results were incredible across the board. For our engagement shoot, which was mostly outdoors, Ihor recommended the best time of day so the lighting would be perfect, and it really shows in the photos. We moved around to several locations on the property, and even though the shoot was only about an hour, we ended up with tons of great shots. He was easy to work with and gave helpful direction that made us feel and look comfortable on camera. On our wedding day, Ihor arrived on time, stayed engaged the whole evening, and captured so many meaningful moments. Our venue was fairly dimly lit, but everything came out sharp, colorful, and beautiful. He did a great job capturing both the big moments and the candid ones in between, along with the emotion throughout the day. He also delivered way more photos than we expected, including a preview just a couple days after the wedding. Beyond the photos, Ihor is a genuinely great guy and a pleasure to have around. We would absolutely work with him again and highly recommend him.
