It was so WONDERFUL working with Shawn this year capturing all the beautiful moments for our wedding. My husband first hired him for our engagement day and he did an AMAZING job. We continued to work with him and hired him for every other events related to our wedding. From our engagement, to our engagement photoshoots/mini love story, our wedding shower and of course the BEST DAY (our wedding), he has shown a great level of professionalism. Hiring Shawn was the best decision we made when it came to choosing a photographer. Shawn was always reliable, always on time, friendly and always willing to make adjustments to make us happy.

Madison Fender 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,000
  • Serves East Setauket, NY

Madison incorporates her photojournalistic and editorial style with a laid back approach so you can enjoy every second of your wedding without the added pressure of staged memories (I mean some things have to be posed but we make it fun). She makes sure your day runs smoothly while capturing real, raw moments and makes the photo part "quick and painless" so you can get back to your family and friends to enjoy every detail put in to your event. We specialize in naturally lit and low lit weddings. Flash photography and studio lighting are used as necessary to create clean, artsy images.

Madison is the BEST! The second we met her and saw her in action, her insane natural talent and passion was so clear. As someone who does not love getting my photo taken, she made me feel so comfortable in front of the camera and I had so much fun taking our wedding photos. We are absolutely thrilled with the results and feel they are all pieces if art that will forever document the best day of our lives. Her presence and energy brought a chill vibe to the day. She had so many creative ideas for places to shoot that made the photos feel unique and special while capturing the vibe of our day so perfectly. Aside from the photos, Madison was super easy to work with, very accessible, straight to the point, and never gave us the runaround like other wedding vendors sometimes can. If you’re thinking of booking with Madison - do it, you won’t regret it!

Erica shot my husband and I’s engagement shoot and was the photographer for our wedding day. She was beyond graceful, funny, professional and made me and everyone she was working with that day feel comfortable and seen. Her bubbly and personable presence is evident in the photos we received. I would 1000% recommend her for any occasion you have. Thank you Erica!!!

I've been wedding photographer for over 15 years now and love every minute of it. From the first detail shots to the last dance! I'm very hands on in assisting my couples plan their event so their day runs seamlessly and stress free. I'm always just a text or an email away(Unless I'm on an event of course!) I take a very moment based approach to my photography to make it feel as natural as possible.

I would give Michael John Photography more than 5 stars if I could! From our first phone call, we knew he was the photographer for us. He was very responsive and answered all my questions promptly. He made taking both our engagement and wedding photos enjoyable, and all our friends and family commented on how great and hilarious he is.

Elana did an amazing job photographing our wedding!! She took so many great photos and really captured our day so beautifully!

Claudia Ayala Photography

  • Serves East Setauket, NY

You want to capture the heartfelt, milestone moments – but also the head-thrown-back laughter and the ease of your connection. You want photos that look like art but feel exactly like you. You’re in the right place. I’ll never stop being sentimental about the simple beauty of people living, celebrating, and loving. I’m endlessly inspired by the way life unfolds when people are just being themselves.

Claudia is FANTASTIC. Her photos are beautiful and natural. No stiff, awkward wedding photos that you feel like you see all the time. She is a true artist and awesome to work with. She made this somewhat camera-shy couple feel at ease, and we are so proud of the pictures we got for our perfect day. We heartily recommend her services, you won't regret it for one second!

Elise Margolin Photography

  • Photojournalistic style

I never lose sight of the happy couple in the big crowd. Authentic meets relaxed and intimate, yet captures all the feels. I ONLY shoot couples and weddings. I believe in the phrase " do one thing, and do it really well"

Elise was our wedding photographer. Is she the best? She’s the best in more ways than one can ask for in a photographer. Elise goes above and beyond for her clients providing exceptional service in addition to the stunning photos she takes of your special day. From regular check-ins, her words of encouragement, to her “roll up your sleeves” attitude to help you through moments of uncertainty and crisis, she is more than a photographer - she is your teammate and someone who you can rely on. We were so lucky to have her by our side. Thank you, Elise. We literally could not have done it without you. Of course, I highly recommend her services without any reservation.

Park Ave Studio 

4.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves East Setauket, NY

I grew up in Lindenhurst, New York and had my first photography exhibit at the Lindenhurst Library. When I was in High School, my father worked for the airlines, so I got to travel the world taking pictures. I displayed them at the library and was hooked. I’ve been a professional wedding and portrait photographer since 1985.

My husband and I worked with Park Ave Studio for our photos as a part of our wedding package. Our photographer, Erica, was great! She got great shots of our guests and also took beautiful formal and artistic shots of us and our wedding party. We got over 30 teasers within a week of our wedding and then 1300 photos a few weeks later. The turnaround was impressive and the quality was great. The photographers are also really familiar with the venues they typically work with, which is a bonus in that they know all the good shots to take

Gelfman Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,500
  • Serves East Setauket, NY

Gelfman Photography is a boutique studio that’s led by Matt and Lesley—newlyweds as of December 2023—who both have their Bachelor's in Photography and over ten years of experience in portrait and event work. Wedding photography is a very personal and vulnerable thing. You’re letting newcomers into the innermost circle of one of the biggest days of your life! We strongly feel that your photographers shouldn’t be nameless technicians that were just “assigned” to you. You should be comfortable with them as you would be with friends and feel safe in knowing they’re well-versed in the things that mean the most to you on your big day.

The Gelfmans are AWESOME!! I chose them because they did my sister in laws wedding and the pictures were phenomenal. They’re so chill and they make you feel so comfortable. My wedding photos are exactly what I wanted!

Apollo Fields

  • Photojournalistic style

  • Serves East Setauket, NY

Heather is our in-house professional photographer who has an artistic obsession with natural light. When she’s not wrangling your next of kin for formals by asserting her east coast kindness, you will probably find her in the woods, holding her hand in the air to catch a reflection of the sun’s rays. She has a knack for finding locations that make natural surroundings look like professional sets, placing her subjects in an ethereal glow that’s usually reserved for storybook endings. An experienced industry professional through-and-through, she navigates the timeline of the day with a caring, hospitable hand and a keen artistic eye.

Perfect wedding photographers. We threw a lot their way with very vague guidelines and they captured everything. They also dealt with a downpour of rain and a power outage, but were troopers the whole time. High quality, good pricing, easy to work with, would totally recommend 10/10!

  • Serves East Setauket, NY

Our relationship is the driving force behind our work and lives. In the past we have worked with some of New York's leading wedding studios. During this time we felt something was missing. Let the couples be who they are in the most 'vero' way possible. We want our couples to tell us their story. To share with us their most authentic moments. We are so happy that our work has brought you here and more than anything else, hope it makes you feel something. We firmly believe that when it comes to picking a studio for your special day it needs to be a right fit for you.

We are so happy with our decision to work with Steph and Dhruv for our engagement and wedding photos and video! They took so much care in all of the details you can imagine. And a huge shoutout to Steph for making me comfortable in front of a camera, where usually I shy away. The finished products are absolutely fantastic, and we could not be happier with the quality and beauty of the photos and video we have from our day. Another shoutout to Dhruv for being so down to take an amazing video of my wife playing the drums at the wedding. Steph and Dhruv both are truly amazing and talented and have such a great vision for their work. Thank you guys so much!

I’ve always been a sun chaser, edit all nighter, “Look at the sky” type of person! Photoshoots can seem scary. I can assure you’ll feel comfortable with me being your photographer once I fill you in on a few things about me. Yes, I’m a dog person, my dog is my soul sister. Forget high heels, I’d rather be barefoot. Cozy wine nights over clubbing. Forever not a morning person. Bubble baths and Netflix. Tacos for dinner..again. Sweatpants all winter. Full of dad jokes. Sundays are for Shameless. I’m on the creative right side of the brain, laughing at everything gal!

Monica, I ADORE YOU!!! I have totally made a forever friend in Monica. My husband really loved all of our vendors, but he keeps asking about Monica even now. LOL!! (He knows we talk on insta) She is just awesome. She really tailored to our requests of candid photos rather than removing us from our wedding for photos. She was everywhere throughout the night and truly captured it all. She is such a joy to be around, and you can truly tell she loves what she does. I feel like she was a guest having fun! And I hope she was! Can not wait to use Monica for all of my future photoshoots.
