Choosing Abbey Photographers was hands down one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From our very first meeting with Cookie, they were warm, organized, and incredibly pa...
ssionate about their work — and it absolutely showed all day long.
Our photographers captured every moment beautifully. From the emotional, candid shots to the stunning portraits that look like they belong in a magazine. They made us feel comfortable and confident the entire day, and they had such a great eye for detail and lighting. They allowed us to take any photos we wanted, stuck to the timeline, and even gave out pictures to us, family members, and our entire bridal party by the end of the night. They even had a link that guests could go on for pictures throughout the night.
Our videographer captured the essence of our day. He didn’t miss a thing.
What really stood out was how they managed to catch every single important moment. They were professional, easygoing, funny, and worked so well with the rest of our vendor team.
If you’re looking for a photo/video team that truly gets weddings, captures moments with heart, and delivers incredible quality, don’t hesitate.Neil and his team gave us memories we’ll cherish for a lifetime, and we are beyond grateful.
We had such a wonderful experience working with Neal and his team for our wedding photos! From start to finish, he made our wedding day felt so easy and stress-free. He made sure t...
o include the photos that we wanted and suggested other locations and poses to try. On the day of the wedding, he was calm, professional, and seamlessly blended into the background while still managing to catch every important moment. The final photos turned out beautifully — natural, vibrant, and full of emotion. We couldn't be happier with how they turned out!
Cookie was incredibly organized, communicative, and genuinely cared about making sure we had everything to capture our special day in a way that felt personal and authentic to us.
If you're looking for someone who is not only talented behind the camera but also a joy to work with, we highly recommend Neal and Cookie.
We had the absolute pleasure of working with Neal and Cookie for our wedding, and they truly made the experience unforgettable. Neal was an outstanding photographer professional, c...
alm, and so well-coordinated. He captured every moment perfectly, making us feel at ease the entire day.
Cookie was an angel. From start to finish, she guided me through the entire process with such warmth and care. She was always there when I needed her, and her support meant the world to me. One of the most special parts was sitting down with her after the wedding to create our album she helped us tell the story of our day so beautifully and thoughtfully. Our wedding album came out so beautiful I’m absolutely in love with it!
Together, Neal and Cookie are the dream team. Their passion, kindness, and incredible talent made our wedding memories even more magical. I cannot recommend them enough!
We had the pleasure of working with Neal & his team for our recent wedding day on November 8th, 2024 at the one and only Westmount Country Club. From the very beginning of being re...
ferred to as the top photography vendor, we knew we were blessed. The wedding process could be stressful at times, however, knowing we had a trustworthy, professional, kind, and more than accommodating vendor to ease this process was one of many reasons why this was the best day of our lives. From speaking on the phone early on, pricing, working with the WONDERFUL Cookie behind the scenes, and ensuring the process would be smooth every step of the way was beyond perfection. Come to the big day, and the entire team exceeded our expectations in every way. They all were timely, energetic, respectful, fun & professional! Our families, friends & guests continue to comment on how enjoyable the team was for the entirety of our wedding day. We thank Abbey Photography from the bottom of our hearts for providing us with the most amazing experience. We have such an appreciation for all of the dedicated, detail-oriented work. We look through our photos weekly and continue to be in awe of how every picture captures the pure joy of our wedding. We are so lucky and thankful we are of the TLC that Cookie puts into her work when we sat with her and created our album. WE WOULD BE LOST WITHOUT HER. She allowed us to feel like family and guided us through all of our decisions. We continue to brag about our experience with you in hopes our family and friends benefit from your work the way that we did!

e unsure of ourselves, Cookie was able to give us our options and helpful advice. On the day of our wedding, Neal and the photography team made taking photos a fun experience, alleviating stress from the day as they took great photos. This was especially appreciated since my wife and I typically do not take many photos of ourselves. Post-wedding, Cookie did a phenomenal job of helping us outline our photo album and we can't wait to see the final product.

ing the absolute best, because you are!They are patient and thorough with their work and truly want the best memories of your special day captured. From planning out the day before your wedding, keeping you on track throughout that day and afterwards when it comes time to look through your photos, their team is with you every step of the way. I can’t recommend them enough, I’m so grateful to Cookie and the photography team for all the work they put into making our special day last a lifetime.

them too. Our pictures from the day are gorgeous! By the time we were at the reception, we had prints and a photo reel to watch by the time my husband and I sat down for our reception dinner! It was so nice to look through the day together! I’d recommend this team to anyone looking for a wedding photographer!

one of the reasons we went with them. The proofs we've seen already are breathtaking-what great use of light. Our reception was captured perfectly, and the video they edited brought tears to everyone's eyes. Such a great choice for us!

e. Neal and his team were wonderful; professional, timely, friendly, and FUN to work with. They brought out the best in our entire bridal party, ensuring fun and energetic photos. They made the whole day feel smooth and seamless, when it could have easily felt chaotic or stressful. It's clear they are incredibly passionate about what they do and truly care about how their couple's experiences go. Throughout the evening, they printed out photos and gave them our our families and bridal parties to take home which was such a cool touch. They also had a reel of the photos taken throughout the day scrolling on the screen at Seasons, so all of our guests could see the photos we took prior to the ceremony. They also handed us a booklet of several 4x6 pictures that my husband and I can take on our honeymoon or show to those who were unable to make up. They provided us with an "app" that had 120 pictures by the end of the evening so we could instantly enjoy pictures from throughout the day. This has been amazing for sharing photos online and with those who weren't able to attend. I hands-down would recommend Neal and Abbey Creative Photography to anyone looking for a photographer. We will certainly be using him in the future for any professional pictures we need.
Abbey Photography deserves more than a 10/10 if I could give them a 20/20 I would. The entire team was incredible ! So welcoming, professional and super accommodating. The moment w...
e hired Abbey photography we became family to them. They made us feel more than a “client or customer” but more of a family member or friend. On the actual wedding day, the team made everyone feel beautiful!! . Most importantly, they were well organized, had amazing time management and gave perfect direction to each individual in order to make sure each and every moment was captured perfectly. One of the best decisions I made for my wedding was hiring this team. The pictures came out incredible- it was so special receiving some of the pictures live.. the service was so quick. PS I would love to give a special shout out to cookie !!!! She is so amazing and super accommodating. Whatever you need, any questions, any help she was there. Once again, wonderful team. A must hire for any event especially weddings.

ons of the day. They released pictures to us that night and even had photos displayed in a slideshow during the reception. 10/10 would recommend!
Abbey Photographers is OUTSTANDING. They came highly recommended by our venue, West Mount Country Club. I was a little skeptical at first because I never actually went in person to...
meet them, but Cookie had me sold on the phone within 5 minutes lol. There website is amazing and you can see how gorgeous their work is. The photographers James and Sean, showed up promptly and were all pleasant, humorous, friendly, fun, warm, helpful, and like one of the family.. They cheered me up and kept everything flowing when things didn’t work out with my makeup artist ( what a nightmare, but it all worked out) They kept everyone happy, especially me the bride . When you deal with a photographer for a wedding. you want to deal with utmost professionals, and Abbey Photography is without a doubt the way to go. James and Sean were such a pleasure to deal with and they knew where to create the best moments for pictures. The videographer was also amazing. Additionally, I have had the pleasure of dealing with Neal via phone and he has been wonderful and accommodating through my whole wedding experience. You can not go wrong with this company. and I am so happy I chose them .Thank you guys for making my wedding as perfect as possible.

al for making our wedding so spectacular. From our first phone call, pre Covid, to having to reschedule are wedding, and finally celebrating on 4/3/21, we so appreciate the time and detail, and amazing service we received from Abbey Photographers! Our guests are raving about Neal and we are over the top grateful for his professionalism, talent and knowledge that made our wedding beyond amazing. His entire team were excellent and captured our ceremony, reception and priceless memories with care and detail. Having his wonderful equipment set up streaming our photos throughout the event was just amazing! And he provided my family and the wedding guests actual beautiful photos to take with them at our reception. Weddings go by so fast, and the photos are priceless memories, which cannot be recreated, we are so grateful to have such Neal in care of our special memories. Neal took the time to work with us and listened to our requests to make our event ours and just perfect! Everyone worked so well together, and Neal coordinated so amazing with our venue and entertainment. Jeff and I are forever thankful! Thank you, thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!

ere by the directions they gave, letting everyone know where to go and how to line up in order to get our photos done beautifully and quickly. They captured staged and candid moments between us, our family, and friends that were absolutely perfect. Working with them was a great experience.

ly beautiful. We had an idea for the locations and poses for our photos, but they knew our venue well and provided us with beautiful photos. The crew we had for the day were phenomenal; they are so nice and fun to be around. We saw them at another wedding about 2 months after ours and we had conversations and caught up as if we were old friends. They asked us about our honeymoon and everything. I would use them again in a heartbeat, and recommend them without hesitation to anyone looking for a great company.
Neal & Cookie and the rest of the staff were absolutely amazing on my wedding date. From the moment my husband and I booked them they understood our vision of the images we wanted ...
captured on our special day. We had a wedding party of 35 ushers and bridesmaids so we needed an experienced photographer who could control such madness. The proofs are everything we wanted and more... we can't wait to see our video and final album.

s not enjoy having his picture taken but they were so good at their job he did not mind at all ! They both really have an eye for what makes a great picture. We are beyond thrilled of how great all the pictures came out. I am so happy I have a variety of pictures of my special day. I did not use a videographer and with these pictures I really did not need one. They captured the best moments and the essence of the day !
Wow....words cannot express the joy and excitement we experienced in the planning, lead up and photographing of our new years eve wedding. From the time we met Cookie at the office...
, we knew we were in the right place. Our Engagement photographs were so much fun to shot and they came out so good that we had to use a 2 sided card for our save the date. Everyone that sees them says that they are the best photographs that they have ever seen of us. That was until our wedding. To say that we were blown away would be an understatement. This crew, led by the owner Neal, with James and Shawn took the most beautiful photographs we have ever seen. They arrived early, dressed in black suit's and ties and worked all day and night for us. They even created a cool mobile app that was filled with a greatest hits of pictures taken, THAT DAY!!. when they showed it to us during the reception we all were stunned. I work in the graphic arts field and I know quality when I see it. Abbey's work goes far above and beyond that!!. They also handed out 5x7 photographs to the bridesmaids and mothers. My 85 year old grandmother has a few of them on display at the nursing home she lives in and shows them to everyone. I would give Neal and his team my highest rating and urge everyone to go visit with them for their wedding photography and video...THEY ARE THE BEST OF THE BEST!!!
Terrible experience with Abbey Photography! My engagement shoot lacked creativity and was amateurish and the photos that were printed as part of our package were HORRIBLY edited....
I asked Neal (owner) if he looked at them and he said he did not. What professional photographer doesn't look at his pictures before sending to his client? HE does not edit his photos - sends them to a third party which was the majority of the problem. He resent them to me and still admitted that he did not look at them a second time. I felt very uncomfortable at this point having him as a photographer and I asked for a portion of my deposit back to be fair since there was one 1 hour of time put into the engagement shoot. ..He basically robbed me of my entire deposit. WHEN HE KNEW THE WORK WAS CRAPPY!!. I do not recommend this company - he seems to be pretty lazy and he lacks the experience that his parents had before he took over the business. I firmly believe that this is how he makes his money ---mostly off of unhappy clients and taking their deposits. Found a new photographer that actually sat with me while he was editing another customer's photos. I'm relieved that i made the decision to switch.
After seeing a friend's wedding photos and hearing how accommodating her photographers were, I knew they were the ones for my dream wedding. Abbey Photography helped bring my wedd...
ing dreams to life. They were helpful and made the whole experience from beginning to end, easy and stress-free. They welcomed any photo-suggestions and fulfilled them even better than I could've hoped for. They made the picture taking process fun and humorous and paid attention to every little detail. As a photo favor, the guests' pictures were taken upon arrival and printed from them to take home with them as an everlasting keepsake.
This favor is still talked about as the best wedding favor! We also had a video done by Abbey and just like the pictures, our videographer made it easy and didn't miss a beat! Finally, being able to go home with a mini album, a digital photo frame of the pictures taken only hours before, and have immediate access to the favorites of the day was something I know I wouldn't be able to get anywhere else. I sincerely recommend Abbey Photography to anyone who is looking to have more than just wedding pictures, but a memorable experience.
Absolute garbage. The photography is so basic it looks like any joe shmoe took the photos. There were no artistic angles or anything impressive. The video came out in 1990s cable a...

It was an absolute pleasure to work with Abbey Photography. The secretary Cookie responded very quickly to any of my questions that arose. The photographers (James & Sean) and the ...
videographer were amazing on my wedding day! They drove to my parent's house in Queens, NY on time and stayed with us at Seasons until our wedding ended at midnight. It was a very cold day, but they made sure all the photos that I requested were taken with ease. They even came up to me at the end of the night and asked if I could think of anyone else that I may not have gotten a chance to take a photo with throughout the day. There was one person that I wanted to take a photo with and I was thrilled that they asked.They even surprised my family members and bridal party with some photos at the start of the reception that were taken throughout the day. They also made a highlight photo slideshow for us of some amazing shots that were taken and gave us a digital photo frame with a highlight video inside of it. I could watch it over and over again! My proofs arrived within a few weeks and I’m actually going to pick them up this Saturday. I can’t wait to see them! Thank you again Abbey Photography! You went above and beyond from the beginning. I highly recommend them for your next event!
Finding a photographer can be stressful but we knew we had the best when we went with Abbey! When the wedding day came (June 25, 2016), we could not ask for a better group to work ...
with! Neil, John and Rob made everything so easy and efficient, not to mention all the great pictures and video they took throughout the day! Not only were they terrific the day of the wedding but they have been an easy email away with any other questions we had! Creating our wedding album was a breeze with Cookie! We are so happy to have found Abbey Photographers! They are the best of the best!
My sister used Abbey Photographers for her wedding five years ago and I knew we had to have them! They were the first vendor I called after booking our venue and church. They are a...
bsolutely incredible at what they do. We were debating about having a Photo Booth and Cookie suggested having an extra photograph instead. There was one photographer dedicated to taking pictures of the guests. They printed 5x7 pictures and handed them to each guests! People could not stop raving about what a wonderful idea this was! Neil had a photo recap and video recap set up along with printed photos on our gift table. In addition, he sent a link that had several photos and the recaps videos before the night ended! These guys are amazing and pay attention to the smallest detail. They call us while we were still on our honeymoon that our proofs were ready! They print our each proof so it is easy to look at and pick from. We are definitely going to have a hard time selecting for our wedding album because the pictures are beyond beautiful. If you are still looking for a wedding photographer, look no further. You will not be disappointed in Abbey. The catering manager from our venue actually asked for their contact information because she would like to use them for her own wedding! That alone made me realize how great these guys are! Thank you so much Abbey Photographers!
My husband and I chose Abbey Photographers for our Wedding Day and we are happy we did! Cookie was great to work with during the planning process. She was always responsive and acc...
ommodating. On the day of the wedding Neal and his team (including videographer) were fantastic! You don't really think about how much time you spend with your photography team, but they are there with you from the very beginning of your day. Neal and his team were a pleasure to have there. They were fun, professional, and personable. They went above and beyond and helped with more than just the pictures. They showed me how to hold my dress so I could walk around efficiently and were helpful on many different levels, assisting with things you just don't think of before hand. We thought we may had been short one boutonniere and Neal immediately said not to worry about it, he would work something out for us. Luckily we had found it but the fact that he immediately jumped in and wanted to help with something that wasn't his responsibility was great. We got our proofs yesterday and all of the pictures are amazing. They caught every great part of the wedding! It was so great to look through all of the proofs and relive the day. They even caught aspects of the wedding that I missed since the day goes by so quickly! We can't wait to design our album and also get our video. Neal and his team went above and beyond for us on our wedding day. We would not hesitate to recommend them and would absolutely book them again for another event.
I was referred to Abbey Photography and Cookie by Old Tappan Manor. I knew of them since I grew up in the area where they are located, so I had a good feeling. I went to one other ...
company first and then went to see Cookie, next thing we were booked. My wedding was on 12-31-14. What better way to ring in the new year and we also had the most fantastic photography and videographer team with us.
Most photographers and videographers are super annoying and in your face, NOT these guys. I got more compliments on the team that was at my wedding. My guests would say, "they were awesome", "not in your face, and just go with the flow", "what beautiful pictures" and mostly "what really nice guys". I am so extactic with the quality of photos, work and professinalism. I m so glad i went with Abbey. I am currently working on picking out my proofs and cant wait to start designing my album. They will work with you and guide you in every way. Please consider Abbey Photography, you will not be disappopinted. Well worth the money and price.
Neil and Sean - our photographers from Abbey were fantastic. They were easy to get along with, kept the photos moving along and got all of the shots we wanted in less time than we...

ofs, the exerience has been wonderful. Cookie was wonderful, she explained everything and made sure we had what we needed but did not over sell us at all.. We also used Abbey for our video and that was a great decision. Wedding day we had 2 photgraphers, Sean and Tommy and they rocked!! Our video was done by Bill hope I got that right, all 3 guys were attentive to us but also interacted with our guests so nicely. We came home with 5x7 pics as did our family, a video picture frame and a brag book!! Just a great touch and great to have. As well our proofs were ready 3 weeks to the date of our wedding!! WOW now the pictures are great and they were creative and captured our day well.. Neal has been accomodating and great to work with as well when I had a few questions, he quickly repsonds and they are the utmost professionsals. Now we cant wait to design our book with Cookie and I know it will be fabulous as their work is superior!
