I highly recommend this company to take photos at your wedding! We loved our photographer Percy. He was incredible, and so helpful. He came with several cameras and valued all of our ideas, and when we became stumped he offered ideas for us to try as well. He was very professional, kind, caring, and always on top of the game taking photos. Towards the end of our night he started to put the camera away and brought it back out to catch a few final moments. He was on top of responding to all questions before, during, and after. He took photos of me and my husband before the ceremony and got some wonderful shots (it was a 95 outside wedding so this was much appreciated because we all had some sweat on our faces). But before we got Percy and our booking process with eivans it was super simple, and just an overall great experience.

Couldn't be happier with this vendor. They did our engagement shoot as well and all of our photos have been stunning. Not only are they responsive and friendly, our photography & videography team went above and beyond for us. My husband and I can get a little shy and awkward in front of the camera having to pose so it was nice to have someone give us great direction and posing tips.

My husband and I could not be happier about our experience with Duet Photography & Video! We got married this past May 2025 at The Vineyards at Aquebogue, and we were looking for a photographer that would capture all the beautiful details of our day at a reasonable price. From our first conversation, I felt that Hanel and his team had the expertise and photography style we were looking for. They were very flexible and responsive throughout the planning process. By wedding day I was completely at ease that they would get every shot and capture the overall atmosphere of our day. Now having gotten our pictures back, we can confidently say Duet did not disappoint! Every photo brings us back to all our beautiful moments as if we were re-living them again. The highlight video kept us smiling from beginning to end. They were also great in guiding us on how to adjust our positioning in certain photos that highlighted the little details that so much effort was put into. I would highly recommend Duet Photography to any couple looking for the best of the best for their special day!

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.

Ladies, gentlemen, just do yourself a favor and book Rachel. Dirk and I decided to bring Rachel with us to our destination wedding in Tuscany, and honestly we couldn’t have been happier with our choice. Rachel delivered about one million edited photos that looked super natural and candid in the most beautiful warm tones. Her aesthetics perfectly replicate the beauty of Tuscany, you’d think that she had been shooting there for years! And I can’t forget to mention that she brought an incredible second shooter with her enabling them to capture many single moments from multiple angles. Oh, and she delivered the entire gallery in about 3 weeks—mind blown! THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING RACHEL! You’re now stuck with us for any future photography needs....

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!

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!

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!

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 Wantagh, 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!

George Street was fantastic! I got to hop on a video call with one of their coordinators and she was great. She let me ask all the questions and gave me all the information I needed. I picked my photographer, Taylor, based on her portfolio and I couldn't have been happier! Her personality was exactly what I was wanting and her photos turned out beautifully. The package we paid for came with SO MUCH and for such a good price. I was honestly skeptical that I was getting scammed and just prayed it was all as legit as it looked. It sure was! I paid a fraction of what some other recently married friends paid and got more photos back and other perks than they did from their photographers! We got an engagement session, a photo album, and EVERY. SINGLE. PICTURE. from our wedding day. There were over 5,000 photos sent back to us! Not to mention the use of a second shooter AND a videographer on the day of! We got a highlight version of our wedding day and a long version with every important moment. The quality was amazing! Overall, the communication was always great, we got our photos back quickly, the portal was easy to navigate, and our photographer was the best! I seriously don't have anything bad to say about George Street and I HIGHLY recommend them to anyone looking to save money but still get the photos and video of your dreams!

They asked all the right questions, from inquiring about golden hour and sunset shots to handling a multitude of family and necessary photos on the day. Most importantly, Emma, the owner, was incredible. I couldn't have planned and executed my wedding without her services and immediate attention to detail, the timeline, the photos needed, her suggestions and discussions, and the seamless edits and delivery of the final products.
