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

My husband and I were from out of town and hired Sean to photograph us at a Christmas gala at the place we got married. He was accommodating to last minute changes to make the most of the session and even went above and beyond to make it happen. Upon first impression, he was upbeat and had a vision. We were outside in sub 30 degree weather with fading evening light as well as low light inside a building and he was up for the challenge. We ended up with beautiful images in less than ideal conditions and that is what makes a great photographer. Sean has a sense of humor and an eye for that perfect photograph. He was fun to work with and his heart for people and creativity shows through. Thank you Sean for capturing this time in our lives.

I hired Matt to capture my sister's engagement photos on New Year's Eve, and he delivered beyond expectations! Andrew, her fiancé, arranged the surprise at the Port Jeff Rinx, and Matt was absolutely incredible. He came prepared with ice skates, effortlessly gliding on the rink to get the perfect shots.

I am typically a Type B person in my life, but when it came to our wedding day, I wanted everything to be exactly how I wanted it. This included researching quite literally hundreds of photographers. As a super DIY wedding, I wanted to be able to look back on our photos and be able to relive it without it feeling overly filtered or untrue to how it was in real life. When we came across Fireside Sparrow, not only did the style of photography stand out to us as authentic, but you could just feel that Stephanie was authentic as well. She and Steve fit our vibe perfectly leading up to and the day of our wedding. Her attention to detail and ability to be professional but also feel like your number one fan made our wedding day run so smoothly. They’re now a part of our story forever.

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.

Park Ave Studio was fantastic to work with for our wedding photography. From the very beginning, their communication was very thorough and clear, addressing all of our questions and needs. They did a great job of understanding our vision and style preferences. We received 25 beautiful sneak peek photos from our wedding within just 2 weeks, which was incredibly fast turnaround. The quality of their work is excellent, and we're thrilled with how the photos captured all the special moments of our big day. We highly recommend Park Ave Studio to any couple looking for an experienced, professional wedding photography team.

Britt Lee Photography

  • Classic style

  • Serves West Islip, NY

Hello there! My name is Brittany and I am so glad you stopped by! I will be the one answering your late night emails, making you laugh during your engagement session, pulling teasers within hours of seeing you, and documenting every precious moment during your wedding day. I have been fantasizing about my own wedding day since I was about three years old and continue to be just as excited about everything wedding related today. I am a crazy cat lady, soon to be wife, and absolute Office fanatic.

Recently engaged? Congrats! Now don’t wait another second to hire Britt Lee wedding photography!! I had received Brittany’s name from another vendor and instantly fell in love with her work! After meeting her in person and seeing how sweet, calm, kind, organized she was, I knew there was no other choice for our wedding than Britt Lee wedding photography! Brittany played such an important role in our wedding right from the beginning. From helping us establish a timeline straight away that would allow her to capture hundreds of gorgeous natural light photos (we got married in December so daylight was sparse!), vendor recommendations, and constant communication and advice throughout the entire planning process (about anything and everything I asked her!), it’s like she was our personal wedding planner! And I cannot forget the Engagement session! We couldn’t get over how great the photos were (neither one of us ever had done anything like that before or had our picture taken professionally), and we had way more fun than we ever expected (yes, my husband even admitted he had a good time!) When the big day came, Brittany arrived (early none the less) and got right to to work. She kept us on track so we never had to stress about time or anything! I’ve been in a lot of weddings these past few years and I’ve never been more calm or had more fun “getting ready” than I was on the morning of my wedding, and Britt a huge played a part in that! She gives awesome direction and never makes you feel like you are “posing.” And her assistant (also Brittany!) did a great job keeping my husband and his rowdy group of groomsmen on time as well! We had such a blast at our wedding and we were able to truly enjoy ourselves knowing Britt was behind the camera capturing it all! Brittany delivered more than half of our gallery just two weeks after the wedding and the remaining photos 2 weeks after that. To receive our entire gallery in full under a month from our wedding (in the thick of the holiday season mind you) was absolutely mind blowing! But most importantly, the photos were more beautiful than we could have ever imagined! The variety she captured not just of us but of all our guests throughout the day was amazing. I could go on and on about how thrilled we were with Britt Lee wedding photography. Bottom line, Britt is a GREAT person, someone I am so happy now to call a friend, incredibly professional, and super talented. Everything you could ever want from the person responsible for capturing one of the best days of your life to share and look back on together with each other and your family and friends for years and years to come!! Brittany/Britt Lee wedding photography is simply the BEST!!

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.

We got married 8/11/23 and had the honor to have Mike capture our day with his second shooter Lauren. When I tell you they were IMMACULATE, it still feels like an understatement- they truly were the dream team. Everything about working with Mike was perfect- always prompt communication, answering questions (some not even photography related), got our timeline squared away exactly how we wanted it, and that’s all before we saw the absolutely stunnnnning photos he took (and got drenched in champagne for, sorry again!). We got over 130 teasers back and can’t even decide which of those are our favorites, I can only imagine how difficult it’ll be to choose once we have the full album! We knew from our engagement shoot that he would be our favorite vendor by far, and he completely exceeded all expectations. We are so grateful we booked Mike and would do it 10000x over again, and will for any future photography needs. THANK YOU MIKE & LAUREN, WE LOVE YOUUUU

Patken Photographer Inc established in Lindenhurst, N.Y is a family owned and operated photography studio. The ability to create stories, make subjects feel good about themselves and freeze history was beyond exciting to him. " We love the fact that people remember their lives through our eyes, our feelings, our emotions and everything we are as people

We first reached out to Patken Photography in October 2023 for our elopement photos in Long Island, and from that very first shoot, we knew we had found the right photographers for all our wedding events. They were professional, creative, and genuinely kind, making the entire process so much easier and more enjoyable. They ended up capturing so many important moments for us—our engagement photos in Orlando, my bridal shower in Long Island, our Madhuram Veppu ceremony (a South Indian blessing), and finally, our two-day wedding in Orlando on 11/1/24. Every single event was beautifully photographed, and we’re so thankful we chose them to preserve these memories. Doug, Kevin, and Kenneth were incredible to work with. They struck the perfect balance between directing us for stunning posed photos and blending into the background to catch those natural, candid moments. You could tell they truly cared about capturing the joy, love, and little details that made each event special. We also decided to include their photo booth at our wedding, and it was a huge hit! Our guests had so much fun, and we loved looking through all the photos afterward. It added such a fun, interactive touch to the day, and the quality of the prints was top-notch. What really stood out to us about Patken Photography was how comfortable they made everyone feel. Whether it was just the two of us or a big family group, they created an atmosphere where we could relax and just be ourselves—and it showed in the photos. From start to finish, they were responsive, helpful, and so easy to work with. Any questions or ideas we had were met with enthusiasm and expertise. They made sure everything ran smoothly, so we never had to stress about the photography side of things. The photos are absolutely gorgeous—better than we could have imagined—and we already can’t wait to work with them again for future milestones like pregnancy or family photos. They didn’t just take pictures; they gave us memories we’ll treasure forever. If you’re looking for talented photographers who truly care about their clients and will go above and beyond to make your experience amazing, we can’t recommend Patken Photography enough. They were such an important part of our wedding journey, and we’ll always be grateful for their work!

I cannot even put it to words how amazing it is working with Terrie! She has photographed my elopement, wedding reception, and newborn family photos and each shoot is better than the last. Terrie has a knack for making you feel comfortable and ensuring the shoots are laid back and fun, while still capturing the perfect moments. My husband and I are so awkward when having our photo taken but you would never know it based on the photos that Terrie captures of us. She is a down to earth, easy to work with person and I will be looking for excuses to use her in the future. You will not be disappointed if you book Terrie for any of your photo needs!

We love weddings. To this day we still have just as much fun and feel the same excitement at every wedding as we did at that first impromptu engagement session all those years ago. This isn’t just a date in our calendar. We are beyond honored each and every time a couple chooses us to photograph the most important day in their lives. We are located in Stony Brook on Long Island.

Ashe Photography Studio was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the very first interaction, Tyler and Chris were prompt in their communication and enthusiastic about capturing our special day. Their attention to detail was remarkable - they made sure every hair and outfit was perfectly in place to ensure they got the best possible shots. The quality of their work is simply stunning, and we couldn't be happier with the beautiful photos they captured. Ashe Photography Studio is highly talented and professional, and we wouldn't hesitate to use them again for all our photography needs, whether it's engagement shoots, weddings, or maternity photos. Their work is truly exceptional, and we highly recommend them to any couple looking for a top-notch photography team.
