Awarded Best of Zola
Eivan's photo and video services were very affordable and were a major reason why we went with them. I think the photos we received turned out very well and captured many of the amazing moments that we had at the wedding. The service we paid for only included one photographer and one videographer but they were both very attentive and made sure to be where the action was the entire day. Overall, the experience was positive and for a bride who was more focused on living through the experience of her wedding, Eivan's did a good job of handling the stuff you don't really want to think about.

Alex & Jeremy were the BEST. I cannot believe the number of compliments I received from friends and family who were at the wedding. They were the most professional and interacted with our guests all night long. During the day, we moved through our timeline so smoothly but never felt rushed in my special moments with my husband. We laughed, we cried, we danced- every moment was captured by them and we are so thankful! I was hoping that the weather would cooperate for some golden hour portraits- not only did Jeremy get the most BEAUTIFUL golden hour photos but he grabbed us just as the sun came peaking out of the clouds and got a few photos of us with my veil in the wind. I am OBSESSED with both sets of these portraits. I’ve already recommended OLAS to friends and family who are getting married. They were the best vendor I could have asked for to capture our special day!

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
11/10. Work with Duet. My wife and I got married in October 2025. We worked with Mike (lead photo), Paul (backup), and Hanel (point person / coordination). We also did an engagement shoot with Mike in NYC's Central Park in May '25. We also opted to have Duet run a photo booth at our wedding (recommend!). We were so lucky to work with Duet for a number of reasons: Communication - from the get-go, it was incredibly easy to work with Duet. Hanel is so on top of things and we were never waiting for an answer, in fact he was most often proactively reminding us of things and helping us think through things like day-of timing. If you haven't yet planned your wedding, responsiveness and trustworthiness in a vendor are huge pros. The photography itself - we consistently love the shots Duet has taken of us and our loved ones. I don't know much about photography, but we love the style, framing, and whatever finishing touches they use. Photos feel highly professional without crossing over into over-touched or too artsy. My wife and I were worried about where we would take photos on the day-of, to the point we were touring around near the venue and greater Brooklyn to find scenic spots. In the end, it rained for much of our wedding day, and we didn't have time to detour anyway - no problem, of course, because Mike and Paul made very ordinary backgrounds look wonderful with their photo magic, and were creative with shooting indoors and under umbrellas to make sure we still got a great first look and pre-wedding shots. Comfortability - we were really comfortable working with Mike. As mentioned, we did a post-engagement shoot in the park, more so to gain familiarity with Mike than for the pictures themselves (though they turned out great!). My wife and I are low key and I know I commonly feel uncomfortable having my photo taken. This was not an issue at all with Duet. Mike knew how to match our vibe and was never pushy - this was huge. Conservative approach - I don't fully understand the mechanics behind it, but my understanding is that Duet backs up every photo they take as it's taken so that there is an extra copy in case of emergency. They also do a lot of self-lighting for shots, which meant that while our venue of course mattered, and looked great anyway, they could have really made anything look nice with their lighting work. Pricing / value - while not the most important consideration, we felt Duet delivered a ton of value at a very reasonable price. Getting married in NYC is never going to be cheap, but we feel like we got the absolute best value for our money.

Working with Lauren was truly such a special experience for our family. She has a way of making you feel completely at ease, even if you’re not used to being in front of a camera. The patience and kindness she showed, especially toward our 16 month old, who is easily distracted and constantly on the move, meant so much. She didn’t rush him or force anything. She just naturally connected with him until the sweetest moments started happening on their own. When we received our gallery, I was honestly blown away. She captured tiny expressions and little moments I didn’t even realize were happening. These are photos we’ll cherish for a lifetime, not just portraits but memories frozen in the most beautiful way. If you’re looking for someone who is talented, thoughtful, and genuinely invested in giving you meaningful photos, I couldn’t recommend her more. She’s everything you’d hope for in a photographer.

My fiancé gave me 3 photographers to look at for our wedding. When I saw Tomi, even my picky side was sold. His photography work is amazing and his communication with us before the wedding was great! He even helped us with our timeline and outline for photos. We had a big venue and were worried about sticking to our timeline and getting the photos we wanted. He took the photos so quickly and got so many photos of us! Many of his ideas took us out of our comfort zone, but ended up being some incredible shots, and he made it extremely fun to do them. One of the best parts of our wedding was getting to have a little bit of Tomi’s time!

I never thought I’d cry over an email, but when Covenant Pictures sent our full wedding gallery just 12 days after the ceremony, I couldn’t stop the happy tears. These photos captured our day in a way that felt deeply personal, emotional, and true to us. But let me back up—throughout the entire planning process, they were consistently supportive and incredibly communicative. Their bi-weekly emails weren’t generic—they felt tailored to me, filled with checklists, helpful reminders, and personal notes. When the big day came, they moved like a stealthy, joyful crew—capturing everything from my dad’s reaction when he saw me in my dress, to the tiny flower girl meltdown (which turned into one of my favorite shots!). I always felt seen, heard, and respected. And my family absolutely adored them—they even got my grandma to smile and dance for a photo! Every guest I talked to after said something like, “Your photographers were AMAZING.” And they were. If you're on the fence, let me save you the trouble—hire Covenant Pictures. They're worth every penny and more.

Scarlet Oak Studio was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From our first interaction, their communication was timely, clear, and upbeat, putting us at ease throughout the planning process. On the day of our wedding, they were kind, compassionate, and their positive energy made it easy to work with them.

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.
