Rainiers are the best. I had both my kids photoshoot done by them and I just can't believe how amazing they're. I'm blown away with the final pictures I got. They're so patient, calm and they know very well how to handle the kids. I'm just so impressed by them. Give them a try and I guarantee you wouldn't be disappointed.
Irina is not only a consummate professional, she takes the time to get to know you so she can make sound recommendations on how to pose that will benefit your final images you’ll keep for years. She made me feel comfortable and confident, and took the most beautiful images for us. I wasn’t sure what to expect but in the end I had an amazing experience at her studio. I highly recommend her photography sessions to anyone!

Kristen is an absolute gem when it comes to makeup and hair. Thank you, again!

EP event group is amazing! They did our wedding and everything was flawless! Nick and his team put there all into our wedding and made sure that no detail is missed! Truly an amazing company to work with! Our DJ was great and listened to what we wanted. Nick is unbelievable, his voice is truly amazing and our family enjoyed his performance so much! We also had our wedding video done by them and it was everything we could have imagined!! Not enough stars to select I'd give 20 if I could!!

Wow - there aren't enough words to describe how happy we were with Taylor and Tim on our event day! We used their DJ services, A/V services, and photo booth and all of it was top notch. Nick was so willing to work with our budget for the event and even went out of his way to make sure we could set up during the designated hours. We would recommend EP Event Group to anyone!
I booked a "Old Hollywood Glamour" photoshoot with Raya as the surprise finisher to my engagement proposal. Raya & Michael were quickly on board with the idea and walked me through all the necessary plans so that the big day went off without a hitch. The hair and makeup team were great in transforming us into the "Old Hollywood" look, Raya had plenty of wardrobe options for my partner, and Raya's studio backdrop perfectly matched the Hollywood aesthetic. Thanks to Raya and her team we have unforgettable photos and had an amazing time!

Classic Memories exceeded our expectations in transferring our family's cherished home videos from DVD to MP4.

The final MP4 files showcased impeccable video quality and sharing these revitalized moments has been a joy, thanks to the easy compatibility with various devices.

Classic Memories' commitment to customer satisfaction and attention to detail make them our top choice for video transfer and other services. Highly recommended for preserving and sharing precious memories.
I had my first photoshoot for my 30th birthday to create lasting memories, and the results were absolutely stunning. Despite not being accustomed to posing for photos, Raya made me feel incredibly comfortable and guided me with all the posing step by step. It was as if I were a Hollywood star, preparing for a glamorous photoshoot.

The entire process was seamless, beginning with my communication with Michael, who was consistently prompt and kept me informed every step of the way. The wardrobe and stage options were abundant, providing a wide array of clothing choices.

The makeup artist and hairstylist were truly amazing, bringing to life the exact style I had envisioned. I thoroughly enjoyed the entire photoshoot experience with Raya, and I was overjoyed with the final images. Normally, I'm not very photogenic and tend to dislike pictures taken of me, but I loved all the photos she captured. Each image she directed me to pose for conveyed a wide range of emotions.

Raya's efficiency in selecting and delivering the images was noteworthy, and she even provided me with the raw image selection promptly. I would love to have this experience again someday and highly recommend it to everyone as it is a moment of a lifetime.

My wedding was on 10/6/23. EP Event did a great job. I highly recommend hiring Nick to sing. He performed two songs and none of our guests knew there was a gonna be alive performance. I think it was a great surprise and he sung beautifully. It was very special. We had Joseph as our DJ. He was very good. Any requests that I asked him to do, he did. He even played 1 extra song for my guests. We had David as the photographer. He did an okay job. We think he should’ve asked us to more poses. The photo booths were really fun and my guests loved using them.
The reason why I rate them a 4 rather than a 5 was communication. Our contract said I would have Marc and Noah as our DJ/photographer. But I only found out that Joseph was our new DJ 1 week prior and David was our photographer 1 day prior. I wish we were told when any changes were happening.
Overall EP event did a great job and I would recommend them to my friends and family.
We absolutely had fun during my baby’s cake smash session with Irina. First of all, she was very responsive and helpful when scheduling our appointment. On the day of the shoot, she made us feel comfortable, explained what to expect, and accommodated our needs the entire time. The pictures turned out so beautiful that it was hard to choose! I’m so glad I found Irina for this shoot. She takes your preferences into account and genuinely tries to make them work. I highly recommend Briliana Photography for your baby’s cake smash session.
Raya provided me not only with a gorgeous photos, but provided a fun and welcoming experience in her Brooklyn studio.

Every detail, from the prior communication with her admin, Michael, to her team being present to work on my hair and make up - was professional, yet, never stuffy.

She is experienced in what she does, so the shoot moves at a steady pace, as she knows what poses she needs, and she gives direction, so there is no reason to be nervous.

Just be ready to be ready to be pampered and directed.

Raya was very prompt in getting me the raw photos, and the touched up ones, once I made my selections.

If this is the type of thing you are curious about and think it could be a good present to yourself or someone you care about - then I wholeheartedly encourage you to reach out to Raya!
So happy to have found Lisa and Classic Memories! I had several VHS home videos from my childhood that were going on 30 years old, which is roughly their life expectancy. When I heard that, I panicked. I needed digital copies asap!!! The thought of losing such precious memories was too much and luckily someone recommended Lisa to me. She was so helpful and preserved something that means so much to me and my family!! Now I can watch Christmas morning 1991 on my TV with the USB any time! highly recommend!

“Nick is the man! Nick and the folks from EP Event Group did our son’s bar mitzvah and we were so happy that we chose him for our special day.

My wife had a vision for our son’s big day and Nick did everything in his power to make sure he delivered on those expectations. He developed a playlist to welcome guests to the event, and had another playlist prepared for cocktail hour. Both playlists were the perfect vibe for each moment. He helped us plan the moments and vibe of the party down to the smallest details. 

The party itself is really where everyone at EP are really in their element. DJ Mark and Nick did a great job of following the timeline while also feeding off of the energy of the room to ensure the best experience for all guests in attendance. They delivered a ton of energy throughout the evening and did a great job queuing up the speakers when it was time for honorary speeches. One of the main requests that we had is that it was a full blown dance party by the end of the night. The guys exceeded all expectations in this department! When the time was right, they signaled for the lights to be turned down, cranked up the volume and leaned heavy into his rotation of party and dance music to take things to another level.

We received many compliments about our son’s bar mitzvah. The food was good and the venue was nice, BUT THAT DJ WAS INCREDIBLE!!! If you go with EP EVENTS for your special day, YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT.
Rainier photography did both of my kids’ newborn photos. The amount of patience and dedication are out of this world! From booking the photoshoot until the day of the shoot, Cecilia and William were very accommodating. They will work closely with what your visions are and will try their best to accomplish them. The studio is also very clean. They provided you with changing table, snacks, water, whatever that will make you comfortable. We are so glad to find Rainier and was very happy with the results of the photoshoots. Highly recommended!!!!

Nick at EP EVENT GROUP did another amazing job at our son’s wedding. Nick and the crew were extremely professional and very accommodating. They were the only vendor that was stress free for us, as they were approachable and courteous at all times. We have used them twice before and will continue to use them for ALL future events. They are one stop shopping for reception events! We highly recommend them! Thanks for making everything run smoothly Nick! Joe & Kim always appreciate your professionalism!👍
Wow! Raya is an outstanding person! I can’t wait to do another shoot! All nerves and stress went away as soon as I went into the studio to meet Raya! It was such a fun experience and she couldn’t have been more accommodating. I brought my pet snake with me and Raya graciously accepted her into the studio and took some gorgeous photos! It is 100% worth the money and then some for the great memories I made as well!
William and Cecilia are amazing to work with! They are truly talented newborn photographers. My husband and I were consulted each step of the way of how we wanted our shoot go and they were super professional and considerate. Both are super skilled in handling our newborn daughter (and super patient through fussiness and diaper changes). Our photos came out beautifully and we are so grateful to the Rainiers for capturing a special family moment.

One of the best customer service experiences I’ve ever had! Lisa was wonderful to work with and very accommodating. I highly recommend! My memories on a VHS tape from 1999 were copied to digital and the quality was great. I’m so glad I was referred to Classic Memories. Thank you Lisa and Neil.

Thank you EP Productions for helping to make my 20th Wedding Anniversary/Vow Renewal/50th B-day event magical! Nick, the owner is the best! He definitely has great knowledge in this area! Everything was very professional and visually beautiful and elegant! My guest raved about the MC, DJ, lighting and decor, photo booths, photographer, videographer, etc. Let’s talk about the MC! Nick’s voice is amazing! He kept the people entertained and kept the flow of the event moving! My husband and I were so honored to have Nick sing his staple song, “Fly Me to the moon”. What a beautiful, strong and amazing voice!

The sound system quality is impeccable! I am a singer and so are my family and friends. We all agreed, Nick’s music and sound system is top notch! I had a couple of performers, including myself perform. Nick’s mics, stands, speakers, etc., are better than most stages at events we’ve come across.

Again, thank you Nick and your crew for your professionalism, talent and skilled craft in the event industry! My event was unforgettable! We will definitely be contacting you for our next event!
I can't say enough good things about my experience with Irina. She was a professional from the start, communicative and accommodating when it came to scheduling. On the day of the shoot, she understood my vision and made me feel completely comfortable. Her studio is beautiful and the session was efficient, we were done with a mini shoot in less than an hour. She turned the proofs around fast and I am beyond thrilled with her work. I highly recommend her to all my pregnant friends, family and anyone else considering maternity photos!
Lisa and Classic Memories did an amazing job with my numerous video files from the past! Not only was it a simple process to organize, but it was thorough, and extremely quick. I have recommended Classic Memories to numerous people so far and will continue to do so as I believe this is a hidden gem that deserves far more recognition.

I used Classic Memories to create a DVD for my dad’s Celebration of Life. I was hesitant which company to choose because it was such an important project for my family. I’m so glad I chose Classic Memories. I had questions and Lisa called me directly 3 or 4 times to help support me in making the slideshow so special and perfect. She also corresponded with me via email throughout the process and was so supportive and responsive. I don’t usually leave reviews but this was such a great experience and the slideshow came out so beautifully, I felt it was important. If you’re needing a slideshow/DVD, etc. Classic Memories will take good care of you and you will not be disappointed! Thank you!
Late last year I handed off to Lisa with great trust over 60 video tapes in many different formats that represented our families history, going back to the early 1950’s. I had been wanting to do this for such a long time, it was such a weight off my shoulders to find Lisa and Classic Memories. As soon as I met Lisa I knew I had found the right company and team to carefully and expertly preserve these important memories. During Christmas 2022, where for the first time I had my entire family together, we sat down to watch (with ease) our movies displayed on the TV for all to enjoy. The laughter and tears were wonderfully joyful and satisfying for me to witness and even better was that I wrapped up a backup flash drive in a tiny box as a gift to my daughter to be sure she would always have a way to remember her past, her family and where she came from. I could not believe that 60 tapes in two big boxes gathering dust was now contained in a tiny drive and safely placed in a small box to be easily enjoyed at any time and on any device. Thank you to Lisa and the Classic Memories team. I highly recommend them. Barbara Hon

Going in for the maternity shoot I was nervous not knowing what to expect. From the time of my arrival Irina made me felt comfortable and explained each step of the photo shoot, what is to be expected. I loved that she and her team provided hair, makeup and full wardrobe, which made the whole process less stressful. Irina created amazing photos, she’s highly talented and creative, truly captured the beauty of my maternity shoot.
I LOVE Hollywood Portrait Studios! It's such a wonderful experience. Literally feel like a celebrity on a set. Raya made sure I felt comfortable, Relaxed and even more confident! Pictures came out so beautiful I was so impressed! Definitely will be back for a family photoshoot and maybe girls Bachelorette theme shoot! Either way I'll be back!! Thank you so much Raya for an Epic experience!!!
If you're looking for a great photographer for beautiful pictures Hollywood portraits is THE place. Don't hesitate!!

Nice clean and comfortable space available for rent.
My wife and I ordered the mini-maternity session with Irina for our prenatal photos and were blown away with how beautiful the photos came out! Irina is incredibly talented, organized, and knew just how to guide and pose my wife and me to get the most natural and stunning looks. She was friendly, personable, professional, and really made us feel comfortable. 10/10 would recommend Irina.
I cannot recommend Your Hollywood Portrait Studio enough! In addition to being a wonderful photographer, Raya is very easy to work with, as her service is superb. All of her staff and team are fantastic too, with high skill and clear communication. I felt very comfortable the whole time, before, during, and after the shoot. I got exactly what I wanted and needed, and would work with Raya again in a heartbeat!

We used EP Events for our sons HS graduation/18th birthday party. Wow! What a party!!! EP Events was timely, organized and fun! We had the DJ and MC, the white furniture, lighted cubes, up lighting, the Photo Booth and more. There was plenty to choose from to customize our party to our liking. Our venue went from a room to a high end club. Their rates were better in comparison to other event planners. Thank you to EP Events for an amazing party!!!
I really didn't know what to expect for the maternity photoshoot. All I knew was that I wanted to capture the beauty of this pregnancy and Irina's portfolio stood out to me. My husband and I felt right at home from the very beginning. Irina, the photographer, and Kristen, the stylist, were absolutely incredible. They made me feel comfortable, had the best advice on which looks would compliment me, and overall had a fun time connecting with them. The entire experience made me feel absolutely glamorous! We already knew we were going to love the photos before we even left the photoshoot, and we were right. I highly recommend Brilianna Photography for your maternity or newborn photoshoots. Irina is flexible, extremely talented and creative, and brings great energy.
Irina is absolutely amazing! I went to her for my maternity pictures and they were stunning. We just returned to take our baby's 1st year pictures and they are absolutely beautiful. It was really hard to pick our pictures. Irina is sweet and personable and makes you feel comfortable. For my maternity shoot Kristen did my make up and hair and I felt like a movie star. Irina was also very sweet with our baby and took amazing pictures. Thank you so much for your talent.
We LOVE Susan’s style: dramatic, ephemeral, and so playful. As creatives ourselves, we wanted a photographer who did more than just capture our wedding; she made ART that is timeless and unforgettable. But don’t be intimidated, she’s one of the most down-to-earth, easygoing, and delightful people I’ve ever met. We had so much fun with her and was honored to have her as our photographer.

Look no further than Classic Memories for your digitization needs. It was a pleasure working with Lisa from our first phone call to the delivery of the final product. She clearly communicated every aspect of the process. And the results speak for themselves. I've used other digitization services in the past but Classic Memories produced by far the best quality video. It's clear that they put a lot of effort into the process. You're much better off going here than to any big box store.
Wow!!! Raya is absolutely amazing! She was so attentive and listened to our wants for our maternity photoshoot. She helped guide us through poses, made sure we looked amazing, and was communicative the entire time. She has a beautiful selection of wardrobe options, the studio is gorgeous, the makeup and hair team is superb, and the customer service with Michael via email was outstanding. I cannot say enough good things about Your Hollywood Portrait. Our photos came out stunning and Raya was open to feedback about how we wanted the photos edited in the style that best suits us. We also purchased the photo book and it was the most beautiful photo book I’ve ever seen (we would highly recommend you get this)! 20/10!! ❤️
Susan absolutely nailed our small wedding in Bay Head, NJ. She was able to engage the entire wedding party, including the camera-shy bride and groom. Taking pictures with Susan was so enjoyable, it felt like it went by in a flash! She was not only attentive to our ideas, but was able to give us some truly magical photos with her excellent artistic vision!
Susan’s gorgeous pictures elevated our seaside micro-wedding to a truly elegant and unforgettable day.

Definitely a recommended spot for all Creative Directors, photographers and content creators ❤️. MAJOR plus that they are dog friendly too!!!
We used them for a group of 10 people headshot, and we absolutely love the result, the communication process was very professional. Thank you!

Amazing studio with easy access to Manhattan and load in capabilities. The space is immaculate and has a wonderful outdoor area, 10/10 highly recomend.
If you're reading this, you and your partner are likely in the same spot we were in advance of our wedding - meticulously combing wedding review sites and endlessly scrolling social media in order to find a photographer who is both professional and more capable with a camera than anyone who knows how to use portrait mode on iPhone.

It brings me great pleasure to inform you that your search is over because Susan Stripling is an absolutey ESSENTIAL hire for you and your partner's big day!

After reviewing what seems like thousands of portfolios of work from other photographers, we can truly say that Susan's shot composition and overall aesthetic are unrivaled. Susan possesses this innate ability to identify pockets of light that make for dynamic and dramatic images without a heavy handed edit. Each shot in our respective collections feel truly unique as Susan plays with depth, focus and changes lenses and cameras frequently in order to create pictures that are one-of-a-kind, even if they're shot against the same backdrop.

Beyond her artistic ability (her pictures speak for themselves) Susan achieves the perfect balance of charming and professional! Our rapport grew during each of our shoots and she made us both feel so at ease, that getting organic looking pictures was a breeze. Her ability to command her subjects in order to create images that transcends traditional portraiture truly distinguishes her from her competitive set - and she does it all with a laugh and a smile!

On the business side of the equation, Susan is the consummate professional. She replies to all inquiries in a timely fashion and is equally as diligent in the editing process. Her online portal where she hosts the images is super simple to navigate and makes sharing and downloading an absolute breeze.

Susan Stripling is THE best photographer for whatever your needs may be (especially weddings)!
Karin has photographed multiple spaces for me and she is the best! She has a beautiful style and so easy to work with. I will not consider anyone else.
Karin is amazing and creates magic. She has captured the most special moments of my life, pregnancy photos, the birth of my three kids, my sons First Communion , The Interior of our house for our listing, and even food shots at my restaurant, honestly there is nothing she can't photograph and I would never hesitate to recommend her to anyone. She's friendly, patient, professional and very affordable. You will not be disappointed.
Karin, has photographed many events in my life.She has an incredible eye for detail & with her determination to get the best shot possible, you will be so happy that she was your choice! She captures the essence of whoever or whatever she is photographing.. Plus she's so fun!
I highly recommend her!!
So much talent in this studio! Was an amazing experience for me. I found out about this photographer while looking for artists who offer vintage-style portraits. You really do get what you pay for here, amazing service, talented hair/makeup artists, and of course beautiful images. Raya was the sweetest in helping me with my 1920s vision, we had a lot of fun at the shoot. Highly recommend!

Beautiful space
If I could give 10 stars, I would. William & Cecilia are amazing! They are warm & accommodating, my husband and I felt very special. They are very gentle to my baby, not to mention Cecilia is a registered nurse which made me feel confident. Their studio is very clean & sanitized. Initially, we booked for a newborn session and later on a milestone package. We also had purchased a coffee book album & a canvas which are both very well-made. We love all the photos and would definitely recommend Rainier to friends and family. We still got 3 more sessions to go as of this writing. Can't wait!

Very nice place. Lofty vibes.
My husband and I had our son’s newborn shoot done with Rainer’s Photography. We were so happy with everything from start to finish. When I first contacted them to inquire about the shoot, they were fast to respond and answered all of my questions. Their prices are fair, especially for the amazing work that they do! With the current pandemic, they made us feel safe and had protocols in place to ensure our safety. William and Cecilia were SO sweet and helpful while we were on set and made us feel comfortable. We absolutely loved working with them! I was blown away by the finished product! I love the photos and am so happy with my decision to use them! I am recommending them to all of my family and friends! You will not be disappointed!

We had our daughter’s newborn photo shoot with Cecilia and William about 2 months ago. They were very patient and made our baby felt so comfortable during the photo session. They are amazing couple to work with, genuinely friendly and certainly know how to handle your little ones with love and care. The pictures were beautiful, definitely precious memories for us to show our daughter. Highly recommended!
We had such a wonderful experiences with Rainiers Photography! 2 years ago we took pictures for our daughter’s 1st birthday cake smash! Our pictures came back beautiful and SUPER fast! So we decided to took another session for this mother’s day photo session! William and Cecilia did an amazing job on our pictures. They are so friendly, attentive, professional, and very great service. I would highly recommend Rainiers Photography to anyone! :)

Great place and comedy shows
Susan photographed my sister's wedding several years ago. After seeing how comfortable my sister was working with her, and how beautiful her photos were, there was no doubt in my mind that I wanted Susan to photograph my own wedding this year in the Bahamas. Turns out this was the BEST DECISION I could have made!!! Susan is warm, bubbly and enthusiastic, which makes the whole process of being under a camera lens (which can be intimidating) relaxed and enjoyable. More importantly, I was not only beyond happy with the final photos, I was also surprised, and in the best way possible! Once the wedding started, I did not once feel like I was being hounded with cameras, or that time with my friends and family was interrupted by a photographer swarming us. In fact, once the party started, I didn’t even see Susan! Yet there are COUNTLESS photos of everyone enjoying themselves throughout the entire night, and numerous images that capture intimate moments shared between me and my husband that we now have preserved forever. Susan was 100% present without being invasive, a sign of excellence in a photographer. We truly cannot thank Susan and her team enough. My husband and I (and our guests!!!) cannot stop raving about these beautiful images that so perfectly portray every visual and emotional aspect of our wedding.

A great space for versatile productions, shoots and events. I love coming in each time to see the space looking as if portals into other creative worlds. A great spot!
Hiring Susan Stripling for my engagement and wedding photos was the best decision ever! I’ve never really been comfortable in front of a camera, but Susan makes it SO easy. Any session with her feels like you get to hang out with your super cool friend who also just happens to capture the most gorgeous photos. I loved my wedding photos so much that I even had Susan take professional head shots for me in her studio. Plus, four of my friends have booked her since my wedding! She is magic with a camera and is a dream to work with. I wish I could give her 10 stars instead of 5. I cannot recommend her highly enough!
William and Cecilia are amazing couple who took their profession seriously. They are really fun, and also talented. We took so many session already with them. Both of them really professional at work, and also all the results are perfectly high expectation.
I did my newborn session, also 1 year milestone package for my twin. And another for their 1st birthday party. I really love all the way they interact with my kids, and also all the families pictures made all my friends asking “which photography did you use?”
I do really recommend Rainiers for all my friend who want to have their moment captured. Thank you guys !!!
Working with Susan was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Her work absolutely gorgeous and unique. She captured the essence of my husband’s and my relationship throughout our engagement and wedding photos. We just got our wedding photos back and we are having an extremely difficult time just choosing which ones to print because there are so many beautiful ones to choose from. Regarding her work, Susan captures the light perfectly and makes the photos looks artistic, but in a natural way. She gets behind the scene shots and just truly unique moments. Not only is her work amazing, but her personality is everything you could want in a photographer. She has such a wonderful demeanor; she made my husband and me (people who don’t like to take pictures) comfortable throughout the entire process – making us laugh and let us just have an amazing time at our wedding. To me the most important part of a wedding (besides getting married to the person you love and sharing the special day with your family) is the photographer – they are the ones that capture the moments that will last you a lifetime...and honestly Susan did just that! I would HIGHLY recommend Susan for your engagement and/or wedding photographer.

We recently scheduled our third shoot with Irina after the birth of our second child, since we loved her work previously (see 2017 review below) -- we knew we were in good hands. Irina was prompt to respond back to us per usual and gave us all the instructions we needed to prepare. She also has a fantastic new studio, we were all very comfortable as she worked her magic with our daughter to get those sleepy poses we love so much. We did more family shots this time around and they came out beautifully. She also gave us proofs and edited our final photos so fast. We highly recommend using Irina for your family/maternity shoots!

We recently scheduled our shoot with Irina in early November to celebrate the birth of our baby boy. I reached out to Irina on 10/26 and literally got a response back the same day, she was able to work with our schedule and fit us in really quickly which was amazing! My husband and I also felt like her pricing was very reasonable and clear on her website which made it super easy to figure which package to go with. Irina also sent very clear instructions on the prep work needed to get those cute sleepy shots of our newborn! Even though we booked a mini session, Irina didn't rush us and even went over the time allocated as she really cared about making sure we got some excellent poses/shots, she was extremely patient and such a professional in handling our baby as well! We loved working with her and will be going back for future milestone shoots!

I was there for an event called 'Fresh Ting Art Show' on 11/19/2017. The place was kind of hard to find because when you actually get to 1040 Metropolitan, you get redirected by a sign to go to the house with ivy right inside the parking lot.

The actual studio has a nice restroom, and great space for a group of 50 to be there comfortably. I would certainly love to use the space for anything creative.

Very easy to work with. Great work. I have never gotten so many compliments on my head shots! I'm not all photogenic. If you can make this mug look good, you must be a genius.
My sister suggested that we check out hiring Susan as our wedding photographer when she saw photos on Facebook of her friend's wedding (which were gorgeous). After viewing Susan's portfolio, we knew we had to hire her. We loved the raw emotion that came through in her photos and her incredible use of light. We also loved that the photos looked natural and not at all posed as I find is typical of other wedding photographers.

We booked Susan several months in advance to ensure she was available for our wedding. As the day got closer, we had several touch points with Susan both via email and telephone to ensure all the details of the day were ironed out. With our wedding being in Manhattan and us wanting to do first look along with photos of us and our dog there were a lot of logistics that needed to be ironed out. Susan provided great suggestions as to certain areas of Manhattan that she suggested we shoot in addition to being completely patient and easy going as we moved around the city. Susan was incredible to work with and very efficient in getting her shots--there was no standing around or wasting time. Throughout the night Susan was quick to jump on photo requests and also captured candid shots. We are so excited to receive the final images and would recommend booking Susan to anyone in need of her services. We LOVED having her as such an important part of our wedding day!
We hired Susan for our December 2014 wedding and we could not be happier that we did! Susan was easy to work with, and really fun to interact with leading up to and during our wedding. Most importantly - the pictures she captured were incredible. Her photos have a depth and richness that I haven't seen in typical wedding photos. Several people said that our photos looked like they belonged in Vogue. We were hoping to have a 1-2 iconic frame-worthy photos at the end of our wedding, and we have so many amazing photos we can't decide which to frame! HIGHLY recommend Susan.
