Sound Originals was beyond incredible for my wedding. I communicated to them that I wanted to add video a few months out from my wedding and it was a stress free process. My husband and I are a bit awkward when taking photos and my photographer and videographer were so great in helping us get comfortable and trying different poses that made us less awkward in front of the camera. They both helped keep the energy high all throughout the night and my only regret was not hiring them for longer to capture things that had happened after they left. My bridal party and guests were telling me how great my photographer and videographer were. I just got my photos back and they are exactly what I wanted; Moody, slightly editorial with some candid moments. I can’t recommend Sound Originals enough and I will be recommending them to friends and family that are in need of a photographer/videographer

I could not recommend Duet Wedding enough! From start to finish, they were an absolute pleasure to work with. Our lead photographer, Kevin, and second photographer, Esther, were both incredible—professional, friendly, and so easy to communicate with. They made us feel comfortable and confident throughout the entire day while keeping everything organized and stress-free. Kevin and Esther came thoroughly prepared with my photography shot list and even marked off each photo as it was taken, ensuring none of our important moments were missed. They worked seamlessly with our videographer, which made the entire experience smooth, efficient, and genuinely fun. We just received our highlight film and gallery, and we are absolutely breathless!

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.

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.

  • Serves Wantagh, 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!

Nathalie G Photo 
Rating: 5.0 (5 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Wantagh, NY

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.

Nathalie did an outstanding job photographing both our rehearsal dinner and our wedding. From our very first call, she was professional and communicative, and her whole process was easy. She showed up Friday with an assistant, they got right to work, and they captured every shot we asked for across both days. So far we've only seen the "first glimpse," and we're already thrilled. Everything we hoped for shines through, and she caught all of the special moments. What I love most about Nathalie is her eye. She knows the right angles, gives just enough direction to help you feel comfortable, and understands light better than anyone. She has always been a perfectionist about the little details, and it shows in every photo.

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!

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 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!

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.

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Emma Cleary’s photography team. From start to finish, the experience was absolutely exceptional. The entire team was professional, warm, and incredibly talented, making us feel comfortable and confident every step of the way. Anna, our lead photographer, was truly outstanding. She was calm, organized, and had an amazing eye for capturing both the big moments and the quiet, emotional details. She made everything feel natural and effortless, and the photos are beyond stunning—timeless, beautiful, and full of genuine emotion. Kamil, our videographer, was equally incredible. His presence was seamless, and the final video is cinematic, emotional, and perfectly tells the story of our day. He captured moments we didn’t even realize were happening, and watching the video brings us right back to every feeling of the day. Together, Anna and Kamil worked flawlessly as a team, and the results exceeded all of our expectations. We will treasure these photos and videos forever and highly, highly recommend Emma Cleary’s photography team to anyone looking for truly exceptional wedding photography and videography.
