And during the ceremony & reception, we never noticed her, but she always there, photographing away... she is a photo ninja! Our family loves all the great photos from this special day. The photos were not only stunning, but we also received them sooner than we expected. The delivery of the photos (online and via flash drive by mail) was very professional. Can't recommend this company enough.

We surprised our parents with a wedding in Central Park on May 15th, 2015 and needed a…read morephotographer. I chose Nicki because her website and sample photos were the style I was looking for, and because her super positive attitude when we talked on the phone made me feel completely at ease! We met at the Central Park bandshell, and took pictures in that area. Nicki knew a bunch of great spots (admittedly at first I didn't see what was so good about the location, but after the pictures came I was amazed!!! She knows her stuff!). Nicki was great on timing and we made it to the surprise wedding location on time. She captured everything beautifully and was so fun to work with. My husband typically is really nervous to take photographs but he felt so at ease with her direction. Also amazing - Nicki posted a preview with 5-10 shots on her blog for us the same day!! This was great because we wanted to let our extended friends and families in on the surprise too. It was nice to be able to post the link for everyone and share the day with them. Final photographs came 2.5 weeks later. She sent a link to an online album to download the pics. I forwarded this to our parents so they could download what they liked. The photos were so good that I can't decide which to print out!! Thank you so much again Nicki for your beautiful photography!!

I hired Pdot for my sister's May 2018 wedding. Pdot arrived late, which we overlooked and made…read moreaccommodations for. We all gathered at a restaurant for lunch and invited her on us, drinks included. We began taking pictures. There was no sense of direction by the photographer, she seemed lost and unorganized. My sister and her husband decided to take pictures on the Brooklyn Bridge and surrounding areas. As far as payment goes, 50% deposit was placed at the time of booking and paid in full when she showed up for the wedding, which I greatly regret. I constantly had to text message Pdot for the images which she always had an excuse as to why my pictures weren't ready. I asked on a couple of occasions for simply my money back, and when I did she would email me a handful of pictures at a time. The pictures that she actually forward me were low-quality, very shiny, and just a disappointment. She is not professional and I honestly regret booking her for such a special occasion.

I had an excellent experience with Jonathan. He captured the moment I proposed to my now fiancé and…read morethe pictures came out incredibly well. As good as the pictures were, the preparation and professionalism was just as good. He was early, ready, and extremely helpful. I knew where I wanted propose but did not know the exact location. Jonathan did and arrived to the spot I wanted (knew what it looked like but not exactly sure how to get there), sent me directions and everything went extremely well from there. 5/5 it was an amazing amazing day helped by Jonathan who made the special day work so well and captured it all with stunning photos.

-misleading website -misleading prices…read more-customer service was quick, but not helpful -rude customer service I contacted Johnathan (or his associate) to plan a proposal. I read the website thoroughly as I was doing research for this special event (proposal) We set up a call - that went horribly. As I was asking questions, the associate came off as rude and uninterested. I was appreciative that the temporal distance from my original email to when we set up a phone call was 24 hours - quick service is always a plus. However, the associate did not listen to my questions, often answering the question he *thinks* I asked and several times cut me off from speaking saying 'Yeah, sorry to cut you off here but...' and then would just ramble about something slightly related to what I said. The conversation was very rote and robotic. For example, as soon as I mentioned something about timing he would interrupt and go on a spiel about the contract and set the time and photog would be there 30 mins early and need to protect their time and blah blah blah. My question ( which I was not able to complete) was not addressed. The price on the website states 'starting at 415' - which is true, but misleading. It starts at 415 if you are at Central Park, but any where other than a Central Park location is more money. A significant amount of money. The website is misleading as it should say something like 'starting at 415 (location dependent)' or 'our Central Park Package starts at 415, all other prices are higher and based on location' - I mentioned that it was misleading and the associate scoffed. He went off on another spiel regarding prices are fair, he has business partner and other photographers etc., All fair points - but its shitty to customers that you willingly mislead them. You could easily change this phrasing and on your website - I hate small business that are disrespectful to customers / potential customers. I didn't feel listened to - I was just insignificant and unimportant to him - not even worth listening to. Why would I want to even enter contract negotiations for an event with someone who cant even listen to me talk or answer my questions? The associate ended the conversation with a compelling argument saying "our advantage is our simplicity, we keep it simple." Wow - very compelling. I ended up doing my proposal at a nice restaurant in Manhattan, where they took photos for me, let me select the exact table to sit at, put rose petals on the table and candle. The food was incredible (a steakhouse in Manhattan) and the fresh rose petals, candle, photos all came out great. Putting in a little effort goes a long way and you don't need to give some ungrateful business your money.
