About City Love Photography

Alexis Buryk

Owner + Lead Photographer

I would describe myself as a minimalist on the outside, Liberace on the inside. Obsessed with: dogs, dog-like cats, oysters, urban planning, and really excellent stand-up comedy. I'm originally from the majestic state of New Jersey, and live in the Ditmars section of Astoria, Queens. When I'm not photographing weddings, you can bet I'm either reading or writing fiction (currently working on a project set in Pennsylvania coal country, where my grandfather grew up), watching or rewatching great television

    Alexis is the real deal. Not only is she insanely talented at her art, she has the best energy and is someone you would love to have by your side on your wedding day. She is exceptionally invested in the client process from the first inquiry to the gallery delivery. I love working with her and would highly recommend her to any of my clients!!

    Of the dozens of people we needed to work with at our wedding, Alexis was by far our favorite. We sought her out for her style - natural, candid, genuine. But she was also the most professional, punctual, prepared and FUN person to work with. She was on top of absolutely everything and we were so well taken care of. It's been a while since we got married, but her style of photography really allows us to relive the day. There are no stuffy portraits, just beautifully captured natural moments that really paint a picture of what it was like to be there. We can't say enough about how lucky we were to find Alexis!

  • Beautifully captured, powerful and timeless!

    I have been sitting on doing a review for Alexis for a while now because I can't even find the words to describe how thrilled we are with our photographs. From the very start she was an absolute joy to work with by being so helpful and sweet throughout our planning process. We did not want the conventional "posed" wedding pictures- we were going for a much more genuine journalistic/ documentary approach. The candid moments are the types of pictures that break your heart with awe. You can literally hear the laughter, tears, music and clinking of glasses as you scroll through the shots. She captured the beauty of our venue in ways we did not even have the chance to appreciate during the whirlwind of the day. Our favorite part is how she was so natural and calm (even with our overwhelming doting Italian family) that there were times we didn't even notice she was there. She was voyeuristic at the best times and yet in moments where it was hectic and we felt overwhelmed she was instrumental, extremely organized and provided structure. She also was so much fun! On top of her eye for BRILLIANT photography, she has an amazing sense of humor. My friend snapchatted me dancing like a mad woman to Whitney Houston's I Wanna Dance With Somebody and in the corner of the frame Alexis (unbeknownst she was being filmed) is taking pictures of the party and singing along to the song- having a blast! That 7 second clip speaks volumes about her sparkling personality. She truly loves what she does and it shows in the amazing finished product. Additionally she was a wonderful resource for planning. She very much understands the "Out of the Box" bride that wants something a little more different and unique and she is great at giving advice on all aspects of a wedding. The compliments about our pictures are endless! We keep finding ourselves pouring over the album over and over again, reliving and savoring every special moment Alexis gave back to us.
