My firm recently worked with Sarah Merians Photography for head shots and marketing photos of our…read morepartners. We were beyond satisfied with every aspect of the process, from discussing our needs to the actual photo session, the consultative advice, and turnaround. Most importantly, Sarah nailed it with the final product, which exceeded our expectations! There are a ton of options to get a simple head shot taken, but after working with Sarah, I experienced the difference between someone snapping photos and a true creative professional who knows how to efficiently get the exact nuance of expressions and gestures that make a profound difference in the finished product. The turnaround time from photo session to looking at proofs and being able to use our photos was less than 48 hours, which was outstanding! Despite the fact that our need was quite small compared with event photography, we were treated as if we were a large customer. Working with Sarah Merians Photography & Video was first-rate in every way, and I will definitely work with them for my future firm, client, and personal photography needs!

Like the other reviews on this site, we had a terrible experience with the entire team. From the…read morephotographer, to the other people, no one took responsibility for doing a good job. And the final product was bad. The aggravation was overwhelming. The extra money constantly being asked for was embarrassing. My wife is ready to pull her hair out she is so frustrated by the lack of concern and service offered by this company, I have never heard her stomp around the apartment so loud in my life! The downstairs neighborhood is probably worried about us.

My husband and I hired this company for our wedding photography. At the start we were impressed…read morewith their thoroughness in the photography contract they had us sign, as well as their timeliness in getting back to us. HOWEVER, they were scheduled to begin taking wedding photos at 6 and finish at 8pm. Not only did they NOT arrive on time, they arrived 2 HOURS LATE!!! They not only missed all the wedding photos before the wedding which was during early evening (beautiful lighting), they missed taking pictures of EVERYTHING in the CEREMONY (except the last 5-10 minutes). We were on a very restrictive time schedule because wedding ceremony/reception were on a cruise boat that needed to leave by a certain time. We had to start the wedding ceremony LATE because we were waiting for them and we started the reception cruise and hour late because they were taking pictures. I asked them to stay on the boat (3 hours) although we had not paid for that service, in order for them to make up the hours and time they lost earlier. They said they could not stay on the boat because they were "photographing another wedding the next day and needed to get home." They did NOTHING to compensate for their horrible mistakes and unprofessionalism. They did not make us pay the remainder of our contract but the minimum they could have done was offer to refund our deposit or give us an album of our pictures or some service above and beyond what we paid for. They said "We're sorry." But that doesn't take back that they missed 2 hours of one of the most important events of my and my husbands life. It makes me sick to think we could have paid someone else who would have done the same job, probably better and would have been there for the time we had asked. They're extreme tardiness and the impact it had on the entire events of my wedding day, was by far the most stressful thing I experienced on my wedding day and all the prior months of planning. Again, the least they could have done was offer some form of compensation for their mistakes.

My husband and I hired BACD Photography for our wedding two years ago (we just had our second…read moreanniversary this past Monday. Woo hoo!). I never wrote them a review and when I saw that their only review on Yelp was so negative, well I had to rectify that ASAP! So we had a very different experience. Hiring BACD was one of the best decisions we made when planning our wedding (Worst decision? DIY flowers. DON'T do it!!). They are both incredibly talented photographers with an amazing eye, not like the usually cheesy wedding photogs that make you do stiff family poses for hours. They got tons of really cool candids and the portraits had this dreamy, ethereal quality that looked like it came out of the pages of Vogue. They are the sweetest and were really accommodating about our budget and overall just a really cool couple! I highly recommend them!

She really told me all the information I needed right away, even to things I hadn't thought about (e.g., whether they have insurance, which they do). Their photos are good, and the price is right!

Matt and Angie were a terrific team to work with and we were extremely happy with the way our…read morephotos came out. Although their studio is a recent addition to the plethora of wedding photographers in the area, their professionalism, creativity, and stellar work make them stand out as seasoned veterans. They capture the moment without being intrusive ... we failed to notice their presence after awhile ... but are also accommodating to the requisite family shots and are open to our own ideas. Matt and Angie incorporate a good mix of posed and candid shots, with many shots taken in their photojournalistic and artistic style. One of our friends noted that even posed shots looked very natural. And brides, you'll never have a bad shot with Angie as your photographer ... she was always there to fix the hair, apply the lipstick, and blot the shine :). see samples of their work including work from our own wedding below: http://www.entwinedstudio.com/blog/

Weddings are hectic, unpredictable and can run people's emotions and Farnaz handles all these changes beautifully during the day. Her photos are flawless and well posed.

In a industry which is flooded with people who can't even focus their cameras right one should thank themselves and pat themselves on the back for hiring Farnaz.

Me and my husband hired Redbank studio for our wedding back in April and we could not be more happy…read morewith the results. From the beginning they were easy to communicate and very understanding to our requests. For the wedding they prioritized our request and make sure that we got a chance to enjoy the cocktail hour. For our photos and videos they deliver them quite quick and we are very happy with the results. I will definitely recommend them to any bride that wants to make sure they enjoy their wedding day and have great photos and videos of it

Jenn and Ro were hands down the best vendor we had for our wedding and our greatest investment…read more From our first meeting with them, we knew we had to hire them to capture the biggest day of our lives. They really took the time to get to know us as a couple, asking us questions about our story and how we met, which was so different than any other vendor we had met with. They honestly felt like old friends and we knew they were the right choice for us. They checked in so many times throughout the process, which gave us such much peace of mind. Of course, on our wedding day, Jenn and Ro were unbelievably professional & organized and made us feel so relaxed. They're also just such a cute and fun couple themselves, and truly the type of people that you want to hang out with outside of all the wedding chaos. It's no surprise that our wedding photos are absolutely to die for. Jenn and Ro captured the raw emotions of our wedding day flawlessly. I knew they were good, but our photos blew all of our expectations out of the water. We can't stop looking at them and are so grateful that we have these stunning photos to look back on for the rest of our lives. We could not recommend Jenn and Ro enough!!! They are masters of their craft who put everything they have into the lens and we would hire them 1000x over again. Thank you Jenn and Ro!

Getting married on February 14, 2026 was already so meaningful to us, and somehow Jenn and Ro captured every second of it so perfectly. From the start of the day to the very last moment, they made us feel completely comfortable, calm, and honestly just able to be ourselves. Their energy is so warm and easygoing, and it made such a difference throughout the entire day. What meant the most to us was how present they were while also being so seamlessly behind the scenes. They caught everything--the big moments, the quiet in-between ones, the emotions we didn't even realize were happening. Looking back at our photos, we're blown away by how they were able to tell the full story of our day so beautifully and naturally. Jenn and Ro are not only incredibly talented, but they're truly amazing people. We feel so lucky to have had them by our side on such an important day. These are memories we'll cherish forever because of them. We truly cannot recommend J&R Photography enough!

Be forewarned - this is less of a review but a romance novel starring our photographer, Danny…read moreBergin of Chellise Michael Photography (CMP), as its main protagonist. In photographs I typically have either RBF or a double chin because I'm usually laughing. I also cringe at the standard posed wedding photography and knew right off the bat that it would be a mission to find a wedding photographer that would be up for the challenge. So if you're like me, you may dread the thought of choosing a wedding photographer. It was by chance that I came across CMP's photographs while browsing on Pinterest. They immediately caught my eye; they were editorial, intimate and full of personality. Bottom line - stunning. Fortunately CMP had one photographer available for our date -- Danny. We lucked out because he is not only extremely talented in his craft, but also a total gem of a person. The photographs from our engagement shoot (WHICH COMES WITH YOUR PACKAGE AND IS AN AMAZING BENEFIT OF CMP'S SERVICES) made it immediately clear that Danny has a superb eye and was able to capture our personality as a couple. I've been non-stop spamming friends and family with our wedding photographs since we've received them; and which Danny delivered in record time. I'm in complete awe of how Danny was able to capture the vibe of our wedding in such a natural way. It goes without saying that wedding photographs aren't just for the couple, but also for the friends and family. So I want to share some verbatim messages I received from our attendees (who include people who work in the fashion industry, my highly critical family and people who have gone to at least 8 weddings last year) which really underscore Danny's stellar photography skills: "HOLY $H!T YOUR WEDDING PHOTOS!! I'm obsessed with all of them!" "The photos really capture you guys" "I'm done. Unwell this aesthetic. who is this photographer?!" "Your photographer was on it! They did a really great job!" "This photographer is magic brah" Last but not least, I want to recognize qualities of CMP that while searching for a wedding photographer I had not recognized were absolutely essential until I saw them in action: (1) a commitment to easy scheduling for discussing your needs and dates and for the engagement shoot; (2) clear instructions and constant communication on when the photographs will be delivered, guides for the photo shoots and how to view your photos; (3) a photographer with great personality that puts everyone at ease; and (4) flexibility and ability to provide for their customer's needs and implement their customer's vision. All in all, due to Danny -- our knight in shining corduroy -- we will live happily ever after.

We are simply enthralled by the incredible artistry and creative narrative vision of Mike,…read moreChellise, and their team. Their ability to capture authenticity, beauty, meaning-- and even the sublime-- went way above and beyond any of our expectations. I was absolutely captivated by their portfolio-- the narrative, colors, composition, perspective. We were having a very small casual wedding, so I honestly wondered, would it still make sense to invest ourselves in photos? I am so glad that we did. I searched high and low online, but I kept coming back to their portfolio --beautiful yet edgy, current, and distinctive. After meeting with Mike at his Bushwick studio, we decided to go for it. I keep thinking of the word Zeitgeist (if that happens to mean something to you)-- the idea that art and culture are intertwined, that individuals and their works are products of their time and culture-- this is what you have with Mike & Chellise-- the ability not only to create beautiful amazing portraits and memories of important moments but also to be part of the artistic and inspired zeitgeist of Brooklyn/NY now. It's like you have the chance to be doing your band photoshoot, except that it happens to be your engagement photoshoot. My partner and I both didn't want traditional engagement photos-- we both love modern and contemporary art, cinema, and the eclectic visionaries who bring their own individual perspective to their work (Cindy Sherman, Alejandro Jodorowsky, Vito Acconci, Ryan Trecartin, Laurel Nakadate, to name a few). In particular, we enjoy the rich saturated hues and style of 1960s Italian (a la Dario Argento) and French New Wave cinema, so we wanted to recreate those moments in our portraits. Mike and Chellise and Kelli made it happen. And our portrait session photoshoot was as fun, memorable, and as exciting as our wedding itself... and the photos are simply incredible. Not only that, but they bring genuine positive and relaxed energy, which is really important, especially for the wedding day. Mike and his team are friendly, professional, timely, and super-efficient and effective. You could not ask for better event/portrait/wedding photographers. True talented artists.
