About Daniel Nydick Photography

Daniel Nydick Photography

Owner

I've always been relationship driven. It's our connections with those close to us that makes our life's experience that much richer. It's no surprise that my clients naturally become a part of my family. There is no other industry in which I believe I am better suited. We are a good fit if you are looking for a fresh, enthusiastic, seasoned professional who will put you at ease, make you laugh, and spend quality time with you before, during, and after your wedding day. Getting to know each other on a personal level allows us to foster a bond that enables me to capture and deliver stunning images you'll cherish for the rest of your life.

While my enthusiasm is contagious, what really ignites it all is the connection my couples share. I hone in on it, and together, we create something wonderful. I'm personable, fun, and enthusiastic (and sometimes cornier than I care to admit). I also play well with others (venues, video teams, DJs…) I am more than your photographer, I am your dear friend who's looking out for you, who's been through enough wedding days to be able to calmly help you navigate yours. I'm driven by an intense desire to capture beautifully moving and evocative images. I would love nothing more than to be of service to you.

    If you’re looking for a photographer that is fun, personable, and beyond talented please consider Daniel for your big day! Daniel was fantastic to work with!! I was so nervous leading up to the big day and felt like I was making so many last minute changes but Daniel reassured me and helped me feel so calm on the wedding day! Daniel is SO fun to have around during the day. He goes with the vibe, makes everyone feel a little silly, and most importantly makes everyone feel so comfortable and present. Communication with Daniel was seamless. From the day we sent our first inquiry, to the days leading up to receiving our photos. Daniel has been so fun to work with, I wish I could get married again just to hire him all over! We were in awe when we received our photos back. Daniel is so incredibly talented and his passion for photography really shows in his work. Our photos were exactly what we wanted - punchy, full of color, and ALIVE! I’m so happy we can relive our big day though our photos.

  • Daniel is a rock star!

    Back in 2016, during my brief 4 year stint doing wedding photography, Daniel joined a wedding photography FB group I was a member of, and I was quickly impressed with his eagerness to learn the art of photography. In search of an assistant/third shooter for an upcoming wedding, I decided to hire Daniel. When we first spoke on the phone, I liked him immediately. He came across very friendly, attentive and easy to get along with. It also helped that he is a fellow drummer and Rush fan!! Over the years since then, I’ve watched him grow into a phenomenal photographer, and I knew that he was the man for my own wedding. Certainly not a standard issue photographer, his work has always impressed me. His creative use of light (both natural and artificial) and slow shutter effects make for some of the most gorgeous photos one will ever see. In fact, one of my favorite shots of the day was using the slow shutter effect and a group of complete strangers he convinced to help us! But beyond his photographic skills, Daniel is just a solid human being! He has a very calming presence, which is always welcome when you have the wedding day jitters. He knows how to have a little fun during the day, but is always 100 percent focused on you and your wedding day. Simply stated, you’d be a fool not to hire him for your own wedding! “Living in a fish eye lens, caught in the camera eye” - NEP

    There are not enough good words I can say about this man! Daniel was more than just our photographer, he was a mentor for the entire process (and I mean for the wedding as well!), he coordinated before and on the day for best locations to shoot and was truly invested in the day. It was seamless and not intrusive to the activities on the day, he even wore a kilt! (it was a Scottish wedding). 5 stars since I can't give 10!!

  • The undisputed champ of wedding photographers!

    We had the absolute pleasure of working with Daniel for not one, but TWO wedding days. Our wedding plans were a bit…unconventional. When we first got engaged, we decided to elope (just the 2 of us) to Ireland. However, due to logistics, we decided it would be best to sign all the legal paperwork before we departed. We also really wanted an opportunity to celebrate with our families and friends upon our return with a larger-scale party–and we wanted both days to be documented with beautiful photos that captured the different vibes of each event. Enter Daniel! We discussed our ideas with Daniel during our first consultation, and he was more than willing to make our vision a reality. He created a custom package to incorporate both days, and was excited to capture two very different events for us. In the months of planning that followed, we were beyond appreciative of his patience, understanding, and flexibility as we navigated the various concepts for what both unconventional wedding days would look like. Before we get to any of that though, we have to talk about our engagement photo shoot. As big fans of professional wrestling, we wanted to somehow incorporate that into the photos. So we contacted Warriors of Wrestling, a local promotion here on Staten Island, and they agreed to let us use their ring for the shoot! This was a first for Daniel, and he was thrilled to have the opportunity to do something different. He made us look like real superstars that day, and the images he captured are some of our all time favorites. A few weeks prior to our “first” wedding day in June of ‘23, Daniel met with us at our home to get an idea of the layout and review the timeline. We then went to Fort Wadsworth park, where the post-ceremony photos would be taken, and scouted out the best locations for photos. By the time the actual day arrived, everything was perfectly planned out, and Daniel’s amazing photos really captured the intimate nature of our living room ceremony with 10 family members looking on. We capped the night off with a trip to Duffy’s Tavern – a local Irish bar – where we got some great photos of us enjoying huge burgers and pints of Guinness! Daniel was by our side the whole time, and he helped make the day so special. Fast forward a few months and it was finally the day of our reception! Our family, friends, and co-workers all gathered at the Nassau Inn in Princeton NJ to celebrate us. Right in the middle of it all, of course, was Daniel, capturing moments in time that we will cherish forever. His photography truly is art, and you can see his passion for this through his lens. The photos that stand out the most from our reception are the shots on the dance floor. We feel that one place Daniel’s talent shines brightest is his ability to tell an entire story in one click of the shutter–and the photos of ourselves and our loved ones having a blast truly encapsulate the feelings we had in those moments. Through it all, we feel Daniel became an honorary family member thanks to his enthusiasm and genuine investment in telling our love story. Our photos are EVERYTHING we were hoping for and more. We cannot recommend Daniel enough.
