Awarded Best of Zola
I had the best experience ever with perfektion films. Trevauhn is easy to work with, talk to, and he makes it easy to feel comfortable. My husband and I are awkward and hate taking pictures but it was a breeze and the pictures are gorgeous. People are always saying how great his personality is and how kind he is, never mind the rave reviews i get about my pictures. Couldn’t recommend perfektion films more highly.

We had such an easy time working with Enchanted Celebrations staff that I would jump at choosing them again! Blair and Summer were professional, thorough, empathetic and communicated very clearly all the different features of the videography plans so that we felt like we chose the right plan for our wedding day. As time came closer, Summer was diligent at working with us on the details for the day-of, and then a few days before the wedding we confirmed everything with Edwin, our assigned videographer.

St. James, NY
  • Fine art style

The JBP Team is group of talented artists that all share in the same creative vision of wedding photography led by Janelle Brooke and Terrie Alfieri. Our goal is to provide unparalleled artistic imagery, personalized attention and overall, an exceptional experience to every couple we work with.

Throughout the last year and a half, Janelle has become not just our wedding photographer but a trusted confidant for all things wedding, a shoulder to lean on and a forever friend. That goes for Amy, too. No question has ever been too silly, no idea out of place. From the moment we met Janelle, she just made us feel SO comfortable (and surprisingly, posing for wedding photos with your soon to be spouse is not always the most natural thing). She has an eye for the beauty in simple moments but also knows how to to capture the dreamiest scenes. already knew that Janelle would have our backs, but especially on our wedding day, Janelle was the most calm and centered presence for me and was able to read my mind with just a look at her about what worked and what wasn’t working. But that is what you can expect from working with someone like Janelle- she understands you and makes dreams, truly come true. Because seeing even just our highlight photos this weekend was an experience I will never forget. They were beyond my wildest dreams and I will truly treasure them forever. What I will treasure more, though, is the memories we have of working with Janelle and her team, including Mary, our second shooter of the day, who was able to wrangle all of the groomsmen together and keep them excited and organized, and who also was capturing each and every single detail so beautifully; and Kevin, who was a very much welcome third-shooter who was our personal hype man throughout the entire day, as he was genuinely excited to be with us and was truly up for anything. Literally, the entire team went along with my crazy plea to go outside despite the fact that it was pouring the entire day, but there was a 10 minute block of sun that we chased and thank goodness we did. They also agreed to photograph us in the rain at the end of the night and those pictures, too, are just magical. This review could truly go on forever about how much we love Janelle and her team. If you are lucky enough to be able to book Janelle for your wedding day (or any life event), I promise that it will be the best decision you will make throughout your event planning. Full Stop. Thank you, Janelle, for everything!

When I showed my mom the photos, she cried happy tears instantly. She kept saying how it brought her back to the day. That’s exactly how I felt too.

If you’re looking for someone who likes to bring good energy and can seamlessly blend into your special day, I’m here to turn your moments into timeless memories (and hit the dance floor with you too).

Kristyn is absolutely the best out there. Not only is she an immensely talented photographer, but she also is also such a genuine light. Working with her from our beginning consultation through our wedding day was comfortable, informative, and easy. She is so knowledgeable and organized and truly made it a seamless experience to get everything organized. Although wedding planning is stressful - throughout the whole process I knew I didn’t need to worry at all about my photographer. On our wedding day she was a joy to work with and just be around! She made it easy for two people who are so awkward in front of a camera to really enjoy the process (and later the results!) She was an expert at making sure family was gathered where needed, she stepped in and helped where some organizational schedules were lacking, but most importantly she was a genuine source of comfort throughout our whole day. I can’t thank her enough for everything and could not recommend her more!!

Park Ave Studio

I grew up in Lindenhurst, New York and had my first photography exhibit at the Lindenhurst Library. When I was in High School, my father worked for the airlines, so I got to travel the world taking pictures. I displayed them at the library and was hooked. I’ve been a professional wedding and portrait photographer since 1985.

Finding someone you trust to capture your wedding is such a huge weight on your shoulders, but Park Ave Studios made it easy. We booked them through a package with Whitby Castle and decided to add a second photographer and a videographer was easily the best decision we made. Ed and Will were fantastic; having two photographers allowed for so many different angles and styles that we would have missed otherwise. Our videographer, John, was equally amazing and captured the energy of the day perfectly. What really blew us away was the efficiency—we had all our images and videos back within 30 days! Plus, having personalized Thank You cards included in the package was a massive lifesaver during the post-wedding chaos. We can’t recommend this team enough!

Hi! My name is Nas :) I fell in love with photography at just 10 years old, when I picked up one of my dad's cameras and instantly connected with the art of capturing life. That same passion today drives my work as a documentary-style photographer. I focus on the raw, candid, and fleeting moments. The ones that may go unnoticed, but can mean the most.

I found Nas on Reddit and I’m so glad I did! She is just getting her start in her career but that was hard to tell from the beautiful, movie-like photos she delivered that captured my finances and my love doing something we love together, walking our dog around our neighborhood in Brooklyn. Nas’ style is very candid with fewer posing prompts; she takes creative shots while also making sure to get all the backgrounds we wanted. It was her first time shooting a dog and she did an amazing job capturing his quirkiness and bouncy walk. She was right on time with the shoot and delivering photos and was responsive via email and text.

Hi there! I’m a candid and documentary-style photographer based in Setauket and serving all of Suffolk & Nassau counties —including both forks. My approach is rooted in cinéma vérité, blending warm, muted tones with light and airy edits to create timeless images. I love catching genuine interactions—those unscripted moments when you forget the camera is there—and the emotional glances from your families that make each wedding uniquely meaningful.

Awarded Best of Zola
When I was going through photographers, all the ones with the style I wanted were extremely expensive. All the other photographers in my budget had very outdated photography styles and had corny photos. JT is the only photographer I found that worked with my budget and had outstanding photos! My fiancé and I immediately booked him and we had beautiful engagement photos done. We recently received some wedding highlight photos and I couldn't imagine better wedding pictures! JT was with us from the beginning of preparation (around 12pm) till the end of our night (around 10pm). He was great to work with and my husband can't stop looking at the photos!

I never lose sight of the happy couple in the big crowd. Authentic meets relaxed and intimate, yet captures all the feels. I ONLY shoot couples and weddings. I believe in the phrase " do one thing, and do it really well"

Elise was our wedding photographer. Is she the best? She’s the best in more ways than one can ask for in a photographer. Elise goes above and beyond for her clients providing exceptional service in addition to the stunning photos she takes of your special day. From regular check-ins, her words of encouragement, to her “roll up your sleeves” attitude to help you through moments of uncertainty and crisis, she is more than a photographer - she is your teammate and someone who you can rely on. We were so lucky to have her by our side. Thank you, Elise. We literally could not have done it without you. Of course, I highly recommend her services without any reservation.
