I'm so happy we chose Par La Mer Photography for our wedding. Tonya is incredibly talented, and her…read moreprofessionalism, creativity, and experience made such a difference throughout the process. We recently received our preview photos, and we're already so excited to see the rest! As someone who had never planned a wedding before and is very Type A, I really appreciated having someone with Tonya's experience and expertise on our team. From the beginning, she was professional, kind, patient, and so easy to work with. She had a way of putting me at ease and making me feel confident that everything was going to turn out beautifully. I originally fell in love with Tonya's photography style, and seeing our own wedding photos has been so special. The preview photos are absolutely dreamy! She captured the romantic feel of our wedding, all the beautiful details, and so many moments that we're excited to have forever. I also have to give her credit for working with my now-husband and me, especially with how stiff and awkward we can be in front of the camera! Neither of us is particularly comfortable posing for photos, but Tonya was so great at guiding us and making everything feel natural. Looking at the photos, you would never know how awkward we actually felt! Working with Tonya was a wonderful experience, and I'm so grateful we had her there to capture our wedding. I would absolutely recommend Par La Mer Photography to anyone looking for a talented, experienced photographer who also makes the entire process feel easy and comfortable. Thank you, Tonya!

Having produced literally hundreds of events over the years and utilizing dozens of great…read morephotographers, I can confidently say that Caroline is the best of the best. For any event or need I have in NYC, Caroline is my go-to photographer. Exceptional work and even more important, exceptional to work with. In fact, I actually once changed an event date in order to secure her services - that's how good she is. Caroline is affable, approachable and a great communicator. She has a natural instinct to know which images are going to be important and is ahead of the curve in capturing them. She's equally fantastic with proactive questions and ideas. She will help you realize the exact vision you are seeking for your needs be it simply a new headshot to capturing all the angles of a massive event. Skimming through many of her 5 star reviews here, I am not surprised to see so many saying the same thing as me so, allow me to leave you with another tip that you may find helpful. Sometimes an event may have a budget restriction and cutting a professional photographer may be seen as a quick and easy place to start. Do not make this mistake. You can't get the images from your phone. The intern with a "nice camera" will miss the shot, the lighting, the moment. Trust me. You want a seasoned and accomplished professional. And you want a pro that is easy and fun to work with too. I return to Caroline's photos from years past ALL THE TIME because she helps me tell the story of the experience that has enable to me to grow my own business. I can't wait to work with Caroline again soon!

Kat Loughery Photography made my wedding day incredibly memorable from start to finish!! Kat and I…read morehad numerous discussions about my vision and she even met with me at our first look spot to fully embrace what I wanted captured! Communication was easy whether it was through email that included a bunch of questions or a simple text message asking for feedback or an opinion. As soon as we solidified that we would be using Kat's services I was able to share my pinterest board with her and she continued to check in on what ideas I continued to pin. On the day of our wedding she pulled out a binder full of all the photos I had pinned. I loved that she was always on top of it! I booked Kat with two other photographers for around 8 hours of service. Within my package it also included an extra mini photo shoot. I asked Kat to do a secret boudoir shoot with me and although not part of her normal requests she accepted with ease! She made me feel so comfortable during that shoot and created a small album I was able to gift to my husband on the morning of our wedding! It was incredibly special and made me feel confident and sexy to gift to my husband! On the day of the wedding, all three photographers showed up on time and began shooting in the hotel rooms, capturing the little details of my jewelry and personalized champagne flutes. They captured candid moments between my bridesmaids and I and especially with my mom. My mom is such a strong woman and when she gets emotional it is usually a big deal. Kat and her team did not miss a beat and captured those moments for me to look back on! Throughout the day of our wedding, Kat's team was with us every step making each moment continuously special. They froze on the rocks at Lighthouse Point Beach so my husband and I could capture a unique first look experience. We all may have been cold, but I will NEVER forget the memories of all of us laughing together pushing through the chills (and tears!). During some group shots on the carousel they laughed with us during an injury that happened to one of the horses feet! Complete accident, but made for a story to tell in the long run. The ceremony was captured in just the way I asked including accommodating the hard shot of being behind my mom, step father and I to get the shot before we walked out. The reception photos were endless of our guests and my husband and I interacting with family and friends. They captured such FUN memories and even a romantic moment of my husband and I embraced in the love of the day slow dancing with everyone else on the dance floor. Not to mention there may have been a lift or two throughout some of the song choices! By the end of the night I asked what Kat and her team what they were still doing there and they said they were having so much fun! It truly made my night! To this day, Kat still answers my texts and will send any requests I may have whether it's a photo turned from black and white back to color or just simply a quick edit. Thank you SO much for everything and making our greatest day of our lives that much more special!
