I wanted photos that would remind us how it felt — not just how it looked. George Street somehow bottled the magic of the day. They noticed the details, the quiet glances, the laughter, the nerves… and turned them into art. Watching my wife see the photos for the first time was one of the best moments — she lit up. That alone made it worth it. I’ll always be glad we hired them. When we’re old and gray, these photos will still tell our story.

Our experience with Taylor and Yan from Sounds Originals was phenomenal. They went above and beyond to ensure every significant moment was captured with creativity and precision. The end results were nothing short of spectacular. The photos were high-quality, with stunning clarity and perfect lighting. Each shot was framed beautifully and told a story of its own. They were punctual, well-prepared, and adaptable to the changing dynamics of the event. For example, when we were behind our schedule for our couple's picture, Taylor suggested a great idea of finishing our sections during the cocktail time. Taylor's approachable and engaging manner made the photo sessions enjoyable and stress-free for us. She was really helpful with guiding us with posing when we didn't know what to do. The video footage was crystal clear, with smooth transitions and impeccable editing. Overall, I would highly recommend Taylor and Yan from Sounds Originals to anyone in need of an exceptional photographer/videographer. Their passion for their craft is evident in every shot and frame, making them a joy to work with.

Picking Duet Photo & Video for our wedding this past October was one of THE best decisions we made when planning our wedding!! From the initial meeting with Hanel, my husband and I immediately felt comfortable and excited to share our vision for our wedding. Throughout the entire year of planning, Hanel and his team were so receptive and helpful in accommodating anything we needed to make sure our vision came to life! After our engagement session with Mike, we knew we were in the best of hands for our wedding. On our wedding day, there was a bad storm but Mike, Michael and Michelle did not let that get in the way of capturing our celebration. They were on their A game and present at every single moment and found creative ways to get beautiful shots. Throughout the wedding, they came up to us to make sure that we were getting the photos that we discussed were must haves. They know how caught up in the excitement a bride and groom can get, so it was nice to know they were on top of the pictures we wanted. After getting our full gallery back, we were reminded again how happy we are that we chose Duet. They managed to stay invisible while still capturing every single magical moment. These photos are vibrant and full of life and love. We gave them liberty to be creative with our wedding video and it came out even more beautiful than we could have ever imagined! My husband and I were over the moon to be able to relive the most incredible day of our lives through our photos and videos. If you want a wedding photographer who treats you like family and has an incredible eye for capturing every magical moment, you have to choose Duet!!

We’re so glad we chose Jason. We can’t believe how beautiful our photos are. We’re both pretty awkward people and we always look silly in photos. He was so fun and encouraging. He captured every moment beautifully. We’ve never looked so graceful in our lives. We had our wedding at a campground and he arrived early and worked with us to get pictures of our friends and families in that casual setting in our casual clothes. In these pictures and in the photos of our wedding, he made beautiful use of the scenery. He got to know us as a couple and really understood our vision. He gave detailed directions but the photos still look organic and spontaneous. He was also so kind and accessible through the whole process. We didn’t have a planner and he helped us figure out our wedding itinerary even though that was definitely not his job. He has a ton of wedding experience and it shows.

Justin also has an innate ability to make taking photos fun. We received so many compliments from our guests about how much they enjoyed having him at our wedding. And the photos speak for themselves; they are simply stunning.

I am a queer, New York City-based photographer documenting candid joy and human connection. Drawn to emotion and the beauty in everyday moments, I approach my work with mindfulness and intuition – balancing gentle guidance with an observational presence. What I value most about my job is the ability to connect with people and witness their stories unfold in raw, vulnerable ways. I hope that my work is a reflection of these moments: honest, emotive, and intentionally seen.

Awarded Best of Zola
Emma was awesome to work with. Communicating with her from the beginning of the process was super clear, prompt, and professional. She was easy to talk to and has a casual style that I appreciate, while still guiding us through the process and making sure we were on track with scheduling, deciding on details for the day, etc. Of all of our vendors, she was by far the most organized. The quality of her work is simply gorgeous and she managed to make us look much cooler than we really are! She captured all the candid moments we had hoped for, and we were amazed at how quickly she got through our posed photos so we could just enjoy the rest of our wedding day. My dad even commented, "Wow, I don't know when you guys had time to get all of these!" after seeing the gallery. We also had a laundry list of family/wedding party pairings and we got through them all promptly after the ceremony, without a ton of fuss, which is exactly as we'd requested. She pulled us aside after dinner when the sun was at the perfect height to get a few more photos, and they're some of my favorites despite only taking us away from the party for about 5 minutes. The preview gallery came SO fast (I believe it was within a day or two) and the pics were just amazing. She was so accommodating of anything we wanted to do, and also had suggestions whenever we weren't sure what we wanted. I also requested to get a couple photos before our final gallery was done so that my mom could use them for Christmas cards and she was so accommodating of that request and sent them right away. We had a great experience and are so happy with our final gallery. Thanks, Emma!!

Allison is hands down the best! My husband and I did not consider ourselves to be particularly comfortable in front of the camera, but after working with Allison for both our engagement and wedding photos -- we were simply blown away! Allison and her husband Nikita are everything you want in your wedding day team -- they do a great job posing you (while also keeping plenty of room for candids and natural moments), keeping the day moving (especially with wrangling a very very long family shot list with multiple small children) and also reading the energy of the room and giving breaks and hype ups as needed. Our wedding day gallery makes me tear up every time I open it, and I couldn't be more grateful to Allison for making it all come together!

About wedding photographers

How much does a wedding photographer cost?

Wedding photographers early in their careers can cost as little as $1,500. Super experienced photographers, as seen in magazines like Vogue and Vanity Fair, can cost upwards of $30,000. The range is wide, but, in general, you can expect to spend around 10% of your budget on wedding photography. Rates also vary based on wedding length, the services you want, and location. A photographer based in an area with a lower cost of living, for example, will be less than one based in New York or San Francisco.

How much should we tip our wedding photographer?

A good rule of thumb is to tip 10% of their rate, or at least $100. If they’re bringing second photographers or assistants, an additional $50 to $75 per person is an appropriate and nice gesture.

What questions should we ask wedding photographers?

Aside from logistical questions about packages, pricing, and availability, it’s also important to use your conversation to get a sense of their personality. This person will be with you and your loved ones every step of your wedding day, including, if you want, in the dressing room! It’s very important that you and your partner both feel comfortable with them and their working style. Talk about your venue, how you want to feel when you look at your photos, and which photos from their portfolio you like best.
