I present fun, elegant, and exciting Wedding Photography for my clients. My style is photojournalistic; I feel it's the most effective way to tell a story. After all, there is so much happening on a wedding day. Between the ceremony, dancing, and endless extravaganzas, the most memorable moments will naturally occur.  My goal is to capture the emotions and memories of your day through my lens. These recollections are your forever keepsakes, a chapter of your life's story. Every image accounts for those who were by your side, delighted for you, and the next step in your journey. I appreciate you for giving me a few moments of your time.t

From our first interaction, Sean and his team at Portraits By Sean were prompt, personable, and clear in their communication. Their exceptional, professional, and quick work captured the essence of our special day perfectly. Sean was laid back and brought great energy to our wedding, seamlessly capturing all the important moments without ever being intrusive. We had nothing but a positive and truly exceptional experience working with Sean from start to finish. Not only were our photos top-notch, but he took the time to get to know us as a couple and was able to beautifully document all the candid, unscripted moments that made our wedding day so memorable. I'd give Sean 10 stars if I could!

Amy Leigh Photography

Smithtown, NY
  • Photojournalistic style

I’m Amy - the one behind Amy Leigh Photography. I am an event and portrait photographer capturing lasting memories for those all over Long Island. Since then, I've worked with many companies as a Professional Freelance Photographer. From School Portraits, many DJs, and on to Wedding Photographers; I've had a lot of experience in the field. But there is still nothing like working for yourself and being able to connect with your clients.

Awarded Best of Zola
We can't say enough wonderful things about Amy - hands down one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! We were very intimidated by wedding photography and couldn't seem to find the right fit until we met Amy. Not only does Amy take stunning photos, she really helped set the perfect tone for our wedding day and captured the family-oriented, laid back, and fun spirit of our day. Despite not having a solo first dance or a dedicated song/time to dance with our parents, Amy found a way to capture the exact moments she knew we wanted and was right there when we did grab each other for a dance or find our parents to dance with. We had our reception and took photos in my parents' backyard and Amy got creative to find every perfect angle to capture our portraits and candids. One of our favorite photos was actually taken in the driveway - framed so beautifully with the most incredible lighting it looked like we were in Tuscany! Amy also remembered every detail of our initial meeting - gathering our college friends for a group photo she remembered that we had requested and helping us wrangle cousins for a family photo she knew we wanted. We are so in love with our photos and the way Amy captured our wedding day!

Rajotte Photography

  • Photojournalistic style

  • Serves Smithtown, NY

My name is Marybeth, and I am a New York based (Long Island) elopement & wedding photographer. I live to capture vibrant art. As cliché as it is, when I was a kid, my favorite "toy" was my polaroid - that is what sparked my passion. Capturing your love story through timeless and nostalgic photographs is what fuels it.

Awarded Best of Zola
I was lucky to connect with Marybeth Rajotte through a facebook bridal group when in search of a last minute photographer for my beach pandemic wedding. Let me first say that my family (both sides) can be VERY dramatic in regular times. Now we were pulling off a last minute wedding at my in-laws home, during a pandemic. It was drama. Marybeth jumped right in and got us organized so that she could capture the most beautiful sunset moments. She has an amazing energy and made us feel so at ease while she was shooting, giving us direction when needed, while allowing us to be ourselves. When I look at our photos, I feel like she captured US. We were so happy with the quality of our wedding album, and look forward to shooting with Marybeth in the future! We highly recommend Marybeth of Rajotte Photography & Media to anyone looking for a photographer for a special event.

  • Serves Smithtown, NY

Madison incorporates her photojournalistic and editorial style with a laid back approach so you can enjoy every second of your wedding without the added pressure of staged memories (I mean some things have to be posed but we make it fun). She makes sure your day runs smoothly while capturing real, raw moments and makes the photo part "quick and painless" so you can get back to your family and friends to enjoy every detail put in to your event. We specialize in naturally lit and low lit weddings. Flash photography and studio lighting are used as necessary to create clean, artsy images.

Madison was incredible throughout this whole process. She was communicative, quick and concise in communication/planning and her work speaks for itself. I fell in love with Madisons document style photography during our engagement photos and somehow the wedding photos are even better. I cannot say enough good things about her work!! Obsessed

Welcome + thank you for stopping by! I am so glad you're here! I'm Maria Love Mattera- my middle name is not Love- however I wish it was .. haha. I truly LOVE capturing love + beautiful moments in time- the funny, emotional, happy, candid and everything in between. Mom to 2 of the most loving + beautiful girls I have ever met. Wifey to the love of my life. When I am not documenting a love, I am wrapped up in my own love story, making memories w my loved ones. My favorite things in life in no particular order are butterflies, new age spirituality, romantic movies, yoga, star gazing, chocolate, the beach and laughing.

Maria was by far the best value of all our vendors! So easy to work with and she really cares about helping you get what you want for your wedding day! She helped up map out the whole day ahead of time, and she and her partner even came to our separate homes in the morning while we all got ready! They spent the whole day and night with us and really went above and beyond my expectations. Not to mention her work is absolutely beautiful!! We recommend her to all of our friends who are getting married and we even had her come do our newborn photos when our son was born! I worked in the wedding industry for 10 years so I’ve seen tons of photographers- trust me... go with Maria! You won’t be disappointed!!

Park Ave Studio 

4.4

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Smithtown, NY

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.

We had the pleasure of working with Park Ave Studio for our wedding photography. Their communication throughout the entire process was awesome, amazing and fantastic - they were extremely responsive over email and phone and made us feel at ease every step of the way. The quality of their work and value offered was amazing, caring, kind and fantastic. They captured our special day beautifully through their photos, which we will treasure for years to come. Some examples that stood out: they scouted our venues ahead of time to find the best spots for photos, they worked seamlessly with our other vendors, and they made sure to get all the shots we requested. Overall Park Ave Studio went over and beyond to work with us for our wedding and we would highly recommend them to other couples!

I've been wedding photographer for over 15 years now and love every minute of it. From the first detail shots to the last dance! I'm very hands on in assisting my couples plan their event so their day runs seamlessly and stress free. I'm always just a text or an email away(Unless I'm on an event of course!) I take a very moment based approach to my photography to make it feel as natural as possible.

this guy wow from the minute I booked him I knew this was the right decision I called a million photographers and everyone was crazy expensive and some felt like they were just not the right fit. Mike had a great attitude and made me feel so comfortable that I booked him right away. He gave us a winter discount and the price of the wedding photo came with engagement session. The shoot was amazing we used it as a family shoot since we had our son already and he was so good with him had him smiling the whole time. In less than two weeks, I got all my pictures back, not a preview all 1363 of them!! He captured the day so beautifully!! Him and Hunter (the 2nd photographer) did a freaking phenomenal job! I can’t wait to use Mike for all my future shoots. I think the pics speak for themselves with what an amazing job he did!!

Nas Zakir Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Smithtown, NY

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.

We had the most wonderful experience with Nasreen as our photographer! She knows how to make you feel comfortable and relaxed while getting amazing photos! She is always able to capture the precious moments and can work with whatever aesthetic you ask for. I would recommend her easily to anyone and would use her myself again and again!

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.

I am a Long Island based Wedding & Portrait Photographer that loves a good adventure. I'm the guy who just truly enjoys being behind a camera. I definitely think I got into photography because my Mom always was behind a camera. Most of the time she was the team Mom, and was frequently seen on the sidelines snapping photos of everything she could. It was her interest in photography that led me to appreciate what it takes to create a beautiful photograph.

I cannot say enough good things about Mike. I’ve known for years I wanted him as my photographer and was so happy he was available on my wedding day. Easy to work with, flexible and extremely helpful. Pictures are stunning. I’m so grateful he was my photographer.

Gelfman Photography

  • Serves Smithtown, NY

Gelfman Photography is a boutique studio that’s led by Matt and Lesley—newlyweds as of December 2023—who both have their Bachelor's in Photography and over ten years of experience in portrait and event work. Wedding photography is a very personal and vulnerable thing. You’re letting newcomers into the innermost circle of one of the biggest days of your life! We strongly feel that your photographers shouldn’t be nameless technicians that were just “assigned” to you. You should be comfortable with them as you would be with friends and feel safe in knowing they’re well-versed in the things that mean the most to you on your big day.

The Gelfmans are AWESOME!! I chose them because they did my sister in laws wedding and the pictures were phenomenal. They’re so chill and they make you feel so comfortable. My wedding photos are exactly what I wanted!

I’ve always been a sun chaser, edit all nighter, “Look at the sky” type of person! Photoshoots can seem scary. I can assure you’ll feel comfortable with me being your photographer once I fill you in on a few things about me. Yes, I’m a dog person, my dog is my soul sister. Forget high heels, I’d rather be barefoot. Cozy wine nights over clubbing. Forever not a morning person. Bubble baths and Netflix. Tacos for dinner..again. Sweatpants all winter. Full of dad jokes. Sundays are for Shameless. I’m on the creative right side of the brain, laughing at everything gal!

Monica, I ADORE YOU!!! I have totally made a forever friend in Monica. My husband really loved all of our vendors, but he keeps asking about Monica even now. LOL!! (He knows we talk on insta) She is just awesome. She really tailored to our requests of candid photos rather than removing us from our wedding for photos. She was everywhere throughout the night and truly captured it all. She is such a joy to be around, and you can truly tell she loves what she does. I feel like she was a guest having fun! And I hope she was! Can not wait to use Monica for all of my future photoshoots.

Our relationship is the driving force behind our work and lives. In the past we have worked with some of New York's leading wedding studios. During this time we felt something was missing. Let the couples be who they are in the most 'vero' way possible. We want our couples to tell us their story. To share with us their most authentic moments. We are so happy that our work has brought you here and more than anything else, hope it makes you feel something. We firmly believe that when it comes to picking a studio for your special day it needs to be a right fit for you.

We are so happy with our decision to work with Steph and Dhruv for our engagement and wedding photos and video! They took so much care in all of the details you can imagine. And a huge shoutout to Steph for making me comfortable in front of a camera, where usually I shy away. The finished products are absolutely fantastic, and we could not be happier with the quality and beauty of the photos and video we have from our day. Another shoutout to Dhruv for being so down to take an amazing video of my wife playing the drums at the wedding. Steph and Dhruv both are truly amazing and talented and have such a great vision for their work. Thank you guys so much!

We loved our photographer, Keith. As a one person photographer, he managed to get a lot of shots quickly. He was communicative throughout the night and one thing I loved is that he told the bridal party how to stand to avoid those awkward moments of people not knowing how to pose.
