If you are looking for a photographer who is not only talented but also feels like a lifelong friend look no further! On top of Rayleen being an amazing photographer, she is a gem of a human and a genuinely nice person! I have had the privilege of working with Rayleen for the past two years! She took our engagement photos, our wedding and I even did a boudoir shoot with her! She surpassed our expectations each time we worked with her! She is very responsive, easy to get in touch with, always willing to chat and answer my endless questions. She listened to my idea list for photo shots, respected the photos that were on my must list which included a lot of big family shots and she also has an incredible eye which I trusted and gave her creative liberty! I am in love with how the pictures came out, they are exactly what I wanted and had in mind! I also love her editing style, the bright true to color, and classic style are just perfect in my opinion! We got lots of photos in our gallery and I love them all! I just wish we had more time and could’ve taken even more photos because of how good they came out! Lastly, if you are thinking about doing a boudoir shoot, I recommend Rayleen! She made me feel so comfortable and I had so much fun doing the photoshoot with her and the photos are equally as amazing!! She has different options for packages which is great and so helpful to fit any budget!

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
Isaac’s photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking.

There are weddings, and then there are weddings that feel like they’re meant to be remembered forever. This was the latter. The bride’s glow, the groom’s awe, the tiny gestures between them everything felt intentional and real. The ceremony was intimate, filled with love, and every word struck a chord in my heart. The reception was alive, vibrant, and full of laughter. Everyone’s emotions were visible tears, smiles, and bursts of joy. I left with a full heart, thinking about how love can feel both gentle and overwhelming at the same time.

Hi, I'm Danny! My passion is to capture couples & their love story in a timeless way. I like to describe my style as a fusion between story-telling & editorial. I lean into true-to-life colors with a warm ambience and posing that's timeless but also interwoven with an editorial flare that's unique, artistic, and stylish. I also love incorporating story-telling stills that involve movement rather than a bunch of photos that feel "stiff" or overly posed. Story-telling moments bring wedding galleries life! I’d love the opportunity to connect with you, and hear more about your wedding vision!!

Awarded Best of Zola
I’m so glad we hired Danny as our wedding photographer! We had the special opportunity to work with Danny and his wife as our second shooter, who are both the most down to earth people ever. Communication with him was always on point, he let us know exactly what to expect and made us feel super comfortable in front of the camera on our actual wedding day which was huge because I always tend to be awkward in front of one. When we received our photos back our jaws were on the floor. They were able to capture exactly what we were looking for, photos that were timeless and elegant while also capturing the perfect candids that just made our photos even more special. We asked Danny beforehand that he not only capture us but all of our amazing friends and family who were with us on our day and he absolutely delivered. Looking through our gallery made us feel like we were reliving our wedding all over again, from the laughs, to the tears, and more. We will truly cherish these pictures forever!

We couldn’t be happier with our experience working with Ihor. He photographed both our engagement near Beacon, NY and our wedding in Glen Ridge, NY at the Glen Ridge Women's Club, and the results were incredible across the board. For our engagement shoot, which was mostly outdoors, Ihor recommended the best time of day so the lighting would be perfect, and it really shows in the photos. We moved around to several locations on the property, and even though the shoot was only about an hour, we ended up with tons of great shots. He was easy to work with and gave helpful direction that made us feel and look comfortable on camera. On our wedding day, Ihor arrived on time, stayed engaged the whole evening, and captured so many meaningful moments. Our venue was fairly dimly lit, but everything came out sharp, colorful, and beautiful. He did a great job capturing both the big moments and the candid ones in between, along with the emotion throughout the day. He also delivered way more photos than we expected, including a preview just a couple days after the wedding. Beyond the photos, Ihor is a genuinely great guy and a pleasure to have around. We would absolutely work with him again and highly recommend him.

Nebu took headshots for my first NYC job back in 2018. Usually, companies provide headshots like school pictures and they’re always awful. So Nebu offered his services. Seven years later, I’m still using the photo Nebu took of me. It’s the best headshot I’ve ever had, even though I’ve paid other photographers since and haven’t loved any of them the same way. I would recommend Nebu 10,000% and he’s such a genuinely good person, which makes the whole experience comfortable and easy.

Working with the Big Shot Bun Company photographer and videographer was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. They were patient, attentive, and relatable, making us feel comfortable and at ease throughout the entire process. Their talent is truly magical - the photos they captured of our special day are perfect, showcasing their years of experience in a way that exceeds all of our expectations. They helped organize the logistics of when and where photos needed to happen, and even offered guidance on how we could best enjoy our wedding night, going above and beyond their duties as photographer/videographer. Both of them were so sweet and made sure all of our guests felt comfortable every step of the way. The photographer zoomed a couple times beforehand to ask questions, and about any family or friend situations to be aware of, which we thought was a thoughtful and smart approach. We got everything back WAY sooner than we thought we would, especially with it being around the holidays. These two seriously put in the work. We are thrilled with the final product and cannot recommend the Big Shot Bun Company highly enough.

Awarded Best of Zola
Shukhrat and his wife Rachel just shot our June 8th wedding and we couldn't be happier. They were amazing to work with and the photos are phenomenal! About the pictures: Shukhrat is versatile and very skilled. When we took our engagement photos he provided us with various styles of photos and editing, and then used our feedback to guide the photos he took at our wedding. He is also flexible. We got married in a city park and there were wayyyy more people in the park than we were expecting at 6:00pm at night. Without missing any of the candid details or true-to-life colors that we wanted, Shukhrat was able to frame the photos and/or alter the lighting so that the park goers were barely visible in the background. Both Shukhrat and Rachel are also very skilled at giving direction when needed, but letting you do your own thing the rest of the time. Neither my husband nor I have a lot of experience in front of a camera—they gave us enough direction to feel confident, without making us feel stifled or overly posed. We wanted photos that felt organic and genuine, and they were really able to capture that. Working with Shukhrat and Rachel: The two of them were a dream to work with. Incredibly professional--very communicative, punctual, quick turnaround time on photos. And they are also just lovely people. You spend so much time on your wedding day with your photographers, it's really important to feel comfortable with them, and we certainly did. They brought both a fun, but calming energy, easing our pre-wedding jitters before the ceremony, and leaning into the excitement as the night went on. Although we hardly know them, they felt like friends. We are so glad we booked Shukhrat for our wedding!
