Duet Photography & Video

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Merrick, NY

Hi there! We're the team behind Duet Photography & Video. We're a collection of wedding photographers, filmmakers, designers, and editors. We each have our own story of how we've come to be a part of this incredibly field of wedding journalism. As individual as we are, we're all bound by the same love for our craft – the artistry of blending documentary journalism with stunning, creative vision. With over a thousand weddings under our collective belts, we've photographed and filmed weddings of every shape and size imaginable. We can't wait to document your wedding as well!

I can’t say enough good things about this company, they were one of the most affordable we found and did an absolutely incredible job for our October wedding. We loved them so much, my sister ended up using them for her August wedding and they did an equally incredible job! I loved their bright, slightly editorial style. One of my vendors (who sees photos all the time) even said my album was one of her favorites! The team was sooo awesome and one of the best parts of the day! Mike was our lead photographer and was so knowledgeable while Adam was our awesome videographer. Yosaidy was our 2nd shooter and she was with my husband getting ready; he said she made the process so smooth and fun (which means a lot from a guy who hates pictures). She also fixed my train and veil in every photo, making sure it looked perfect which I really appreciated. The team made the day seamless and really helped to capture the beauty of our venue. After my husband switched jackets for the reception they made sure to take additional portraits of us which I didn’t even think about! They were able to fix a few issues that came up with sound on the video and were very communicative, definitely would recommend.

I cannot recommend Studio 27 enough for their exceptional photography and videography services. From the moment we hired them for our wedding day, we knew we were in good hands. Our photographers, Cezar and Sam, as well as our videographer, Andre, along with their team, Khalif and Melanie were absolutely amazing. They went above and beyond to capture every special moment of our big day. They even went as far as moving furniture around to ensure they captured the perfect shots, which truly showed their dedication to their craft. The venue even commented that they were the best photography team they have ever seen, and I couldn't agree more. Their attention to detail and ability to capture the essence of our wedding was truly impressive. Not only were they incredibly talented, but all members of the Studio 27 team made us feel at ease throughout the entire process. Melanie, in particular, was a lifesaver. As my sister and mom were struggling to fix a dress mishap, Melanie stepped in and expertly solved the problem. Her quick thinking and attention to detail saved the day and ensured I looked my best. Furthermore, the team at the studio office were also exceptional. Christina and Courtney were incredibly warm and welcoming, making us feel like family from the very beginning. They were always available to answer any questions or concerns we had, and their professionalism and friendliness were truly appreciated. In conclusion, hiring Studio 27 was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day. Their talent, professionalism, and dedication to their craft are unmatched. We are forever grateful for the beautiful memories they captured and would highly recommend them to anyone in need of photography and videography services. THEY ARE WORTH EVERY SINGLE PENNY!

As a candid wedding photographer, my work is created with the purpose of preserving your love story with intention, honesty, and real connection. Getting to know you independently and as a couple through my questionnaires helps me to capture images in a way that is authentic to your unique love story. Every person is unique and your love reflects that. At your wedding you'll find me getting vulnerable with your closest peeps, using my ninja skills to quietly get the shot, and definitely singing along to any song I know on the dance floor. When I'm not shooting, you can find me snuggled up in bed watching my (current) favorite Netflix show!

If I could give a 10 star review I would . I will tell you a little bit of myself so you can understand why i love her work so much. Me and My Husband are the definition of young love i met him at 16 and i was married by 18. Just two teens growing together in love fast forward to our 10 year anniversary. i knew i needed the perfect photographer to capture our special day. My first impression of Daniella was wow i love how detailed and personal it was. It started with questions about our love story so she can better get to know us. From that moment on i Knew she was the right photographer for me. Daniella was everything I thought I wanted and more ! I met Daniella in person for the first time on my wedding day but I already felt like I knew her from our previous conversations and all the questions. I felt like I was prepared and aware of everything that was going to happen that day. Daniella took the time to get to know my bridal parties names and their relationships which my bridal party loved because it felt so personable. Daniella created a color coded picture schedule which helped make the group pictures quick and painless. When I want to relive the moment her pictures remind me of every single detail of the day I truly love it . She loves what she does and you can see it the amazing photos she takes . By the end of the night she was FAMILY ! I will book and rebook Daniella for all my photography needs !

Elsie Goodman Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,644
  • Serves Merrick, NY

Hello, I'm Elsie. I'm a New York based photographer with a passion to capture people’s stories in the right light. Like any relationship, we have to vibe. I want us both to be comfortable and excited to work with each other because that’s what you deserve from a photographer. I love margaritas, my house plants, and my dog Arthur. I'm a phenomenal cook, and love bringing people together.

Elsie was by far our favorite vendor to work with for our wedding! Not only is her work absolutely stunning, but she truly became a friend during the process of us working together. We started working with Elsie when my then-boyfriend had a photographer back out last minute to shoot our proposal -- he reached out to Elsie and she was immediately down to photograph the proposal last minute. We felt so comfortable with her during that shoot that we knew from that moment that we wanted her to be our wedding photographer. Elsie makes you feel so at ease during your engagement and wedding shoots. Neither my husband or myself are particularly photogenic people, but Elsie is great helping us find the right, natural poses AND she's fantastic at capturing organic moments with friends and family throughout the day to really give you that documentary style result. We LOVE her and would recommend her over and over again!

Leanne Gelish Studio 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,200
  • Serves Merrick, NY

Welcome to Leanne Gelish Studio! I am a wedding photographer on Long Island, New York who specializes in capturing real moments in an artistic way. A born story-teller, I believe your wedding day should be captured like a story. After all, it’s the love story you always wanted and it’s worth remembering the little details.

My husband and I had a fairytale courtship. We started dating in February of 2019 and were engaged by June. We both felt a lot of stress and pressure from both sides of our family as soon as we announced our engagement. We decided that we wanted our wedding day to be just about us, and we would do a reception later on that would include our family and friends. We were engaged on Sunday June 9th and by Monday I was scouting the internet for photographers. I’m not from Long Island, so I’m not familiar with vendors here. However, being the daughter of two photographers, I knew that the most important part of my wedding (besides the bride & groom) was the pictures. I reached out to so many photographers and no one was the right fit. We were under a time crunch, so some weren’t available on short notice. I wanted my pictures taken with a Nikon camera, not all vendors are loyal to that brand. Then I found Leanne. Not only were her pictures GORGEOUS, she took pictures with a Nikon, and she was available! Under her excellent guidance, I reached out to the local town hall and secured our wedding date 7/12/19. Leanne was up for the challenge of taking pictures of a couple she had never met at a wedding in just over a month. Over the course of that month she made us feel so comfortable. She had so many beautiful and creative portraits planned, and also listened to all of the images I wanted. We asked her to be our witness at the wedding ceremony. It just felt right. The day of the wedding was beyond anything I had ever imagined. Leanne (having never met me) jumped right into action when I was in the middle of a wardrobe malfunction. She then expertly guided us through portraits before, during, and after the ceremony. She gave us the space to enjoy our day and captured our love in such a stunning way. We went to a lovely park after the ceremony for more portraits. We took breaks here and there and unbeknownst to us, she captured those candid, intimate moments that we shared. Those pictures are some of my favorites. My husband isn’t as comfortable in front of the camera as I am, but Leanne was so wonderful in helping him pose and stand in ways that didn’t feel super awkward to him. She even got him up in a tree! We both have that picture as our background on our phones. I really feel like Leanne went above and beyond what I had envisioned. She gave me all of the images I requested, and also made them her own using smoke bombs and prisms and really unique poses. Two and a half years later, Leanne is the only person we trust with taking our pictures. She has also become a close friend of ours. She is the most talented photographer, and we are so lucky that she was the one to capture our special day!

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring Eivan’s for our wedding was a great decision! Our photographer Gregory I was professional and FUN! He kept us smiling throughout the day with his quirky personality! My fiancé does not care for photos so I’m happy we had someone working with us who could make him comfortable. He made sure to get multiple images even if it was just “one more”, it was never one more! We had actually hired a different photographer and we replaced him with this company. Worth the stress and money! If I had any tips for the company, it would be to have your photographers give a 30 minute warning before their contracted time is up. Weddings are so busy for the bride and groom, it is very easy to lose track of time. I think clients would appreciate a little heads up just so they can try and capture any photos they may have missed. Other than that, I have ZERO complaints. Such an amazing experience! 10/10 highly recommend :)

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. Edwin’s style was spot-on with what we imagined and the videos came out beautiful and so much quicker than we expected them. We’re delighted with our experience!

In the 20 years that I've been photographing professionally, I’ve honed my skill of knowing when to step in and make things happen, and when to step back and simply *allow* things to happen. Documenting the REAL emotion of the day is how we capture those picture-perfect moments. They happen organically, not by force, and I promise you: we're not going to miss ANY of them. = )

Christopher was SO much fun to work with throughout the entire process. From the engagement photos, the rehearsal dinner to the wedding itself, Christopher was there finding the best shots. His demeanor and communication style put us at ease and actually made the process fun! The quality (and quantity!) of the team's work was impressive and they managed to capture the most memorable and funny moments that we still get to relive to this day. Cannot recommend them highly enough!

Bailey's warm and friendly personality really puts you at ease, and by the time our wedding day(s) (an elopement and later reception) arrived, it felt like we were having our pictures taken by a dear friend.

I'm a stereotypical Capricorn that loves drag shows, campy horror films, every dog I meet, and Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups.

He's the real deal, and has the biggest heart. I happily consider Justin as more than just a "friendor," but someone who makes my life (and the world) brighter.

Hi, my name is Millie! I picked up a camera 11 years ago and I've been wholeheartedly devoted to this craft ever since. Through photography, I've come to understand that the meaningful connections I form with others hold a special significance for me and should be documented. My journey has naturally directed me toward wedding photography, enabling me to translate your love into art. To me, nothing compares to distilling love into photographs.

We scheduled a Summer Couple Session with Millie this past June and couldn't have had a better experience! She worked with us to align on our vision for the shoot and plan an itinerary for our shoot. Millie is clear with her communication and made sure to make the most of our time together. With this being our first couple photoshoot, it was especially comforting to have her by our side to make us feel at ease and guide us through each pose. Her experience and talent truly shined through as she shared our photos. Millie's ability to set the stage up for natural moments allowed us to have a beautiful and genuine memory to look back on.

It made us excited to spend time with her during our engagement session and wedding day. We love her vision and attention to detail, plus she provides gentle guidance and direction to beautifully capture emotion and love in our photos. Flo along with her second photographer Lena worked hard to get every photo and detail of our wedding, and just from our sneak peek, we can tell how much love and care went into capturing our wedding. No notes! We love Flo and truly had an amazing experience working with her. We would 1000 percent recommend to book her for your wedding, event or portraits!!

From the moment we booked Shelby Phillips Photography, the communication was excellent, easy, and seamless. Shelby and her team have an incredibly creative and artistic eye, capturing all the special candid moments of our wedding day(s). Shelby shot both of our weddings, a Covid city hall wedding and our post pandemic wedding. We also have recommended her for our family's engagements and weddings, and we all couldn't be happier with the results of everything she has done. I would hire her to photograph anything, at any time, because I know that no matter what, the results will be stunning. Even if it was just a picture of a garbage can, I promise you that garbage would look high key incredible. Shelby has a way of making even the most camera-shy people feel completely comfortable in front of the lens. We are obsessed with how amazing our photos turned out, and we highly recommend Shelby Phillips Photography to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photography experience.

  • Serves Merrick, NY

If you're the kind of couple that would prefer their photographer feel like one of the guests as opposed to a paparazzi, and if when the neighbors complain about the noise, you just invite them to the party, keep reading. I take a documentary-style approach to my weddings. Roaming with a camera, I capture the candid moments and small details that make your wedding unique to you, while making sure to set aside time for a few special portraits.

We could not recommend Steph more highly. We had to postpone our wedding several times due to Covid, and throughout the process, Steph was so accommodating. When we finally got to celebrate, she brought the best energy to the day - she was calm, warm, and positive. And most importantly, her photos were amazing! We wanted more candids than posed photos, and she totally followed our lead and captured the joy of the day. You should book Steph!

We are a married couple of photographers. Within years of career, we discovered what’s really matters - we want to make people happy. Weddings have it all: new interesting people, touching stories, warm family relationships, tears. A lot of tears! Oh, don’t forget dances and sparklers! So, it’s fun! 🙂 Also, we love weddings because it’s the most challenging kind of photography in the field, it combines all the genres. It make you think, move and react quickly in constantly changing surrounding. We have no room for mistakes. So It’s never boring! 🙂

We are so lucky to have had Anecdote Photography as our wedding photographers. From the moment we first spoke with them, their communication style was immediate, detail-oriented, friendly, and respectful. The quality of their work was flawless - the photos are beautiful and creative, and they had such an easygoing presence that put us at ease on our wedding day. Eddie, our lead photographer, was one of the best parts of our special day. He was extremely organized and helped lay out the timeline perfectly, and he was so thoughtful - he even had extra bobby pins on hand when my hair needed a touch-up, and he helped the groomsmen with their boutonnieres at the church. We cannot recommend Anecdote Photography highly enough - their attention to detail is impeccable, and they are truly wonderful to work with. Please consider them for your next event!
