Angelica Criscuolo Photography

at putting us at ease. We were delighted with our engagement photos, and anxiously awaited the big days, for which they did not disappoint! So professional and accommodating, and has an eye for detail that you should absolutely take advantage of. She captured every important moment flawlessly, both candid and posed, so much so that it was difficult just choosing a few for our albums. We looked very natural and at ease, which given the stress of a wedding day, is no small feat. The editing is flawless and her timing is impeccable. She's very responsive and on top of everything, which makes her an absolute dream come true for brides like myself. I'm so obsessed with my wedding photos, and can't wait to find an excuse to work with them again!

th a few others before Angelica and we didn’t click with any of them. However, chatting with Angelica and Matt was like chatting with friends. They were super easy going and completely understood what we wanted for photos. For our engagement photos, my husband and I were super self-conscious and she put us at ease. Angelica definitely goes above and beyond – she was able to accommodate 3 locations for our engagement shoot! She was also more than accommodating on our wedding on a (very!) cold March day. Matt ran the photo booth and was a pro! Between our first meeting and our wedding, Angelica even gave us thoughtful gifts to remind us to take a break from wedding planning and just enjoy being engaged. She’s also super responsive on emails and everything is online, which makes it so much easier!

se and we looked so natural in our engagement shoot! She and her team captured the best moments of our ceremony and reception and we are reminded of all the fun we had whenever we look at our album.

to feel comfortable around your photographer and Angelica instantly puts you at ease. I was worried about feeling self-conscious being photographed all day but Angelica's easy going spirit and friendly personality make you feel totally comfortable. The most difficult thing has been choosing the pictures for the album! They all came out beautiful! Go with Angelica, you won't regret it!

sband and I wanted during our wedding day from beginning to end. If you and your future husband desire beautiful photos to remember y’all’s wedding day for many years to come, I highly recommend Angelica Criscuolo Photography. You will not be disappointed…my husband and I are very much in awe of our wedding photos, as each captured our personalities.

l. Our wedding day was very hectic and nothing was within the timeline was wanted but she was very flexible with the time we had. She got the shots that we wanted and everything turned out amazing! I wish we could work with her for all of our special occasions.

ica online and hired her to capture the night that we got engaged, at the quintessential small-town bakery where we had our first date. From the moment I saw those initial candid photos from that night, I was hooked! Angelica is like a ninja...she captures the most incredible moments, but you don't even know she's there! She's not in your face and she makes you feel natural and comfortable. From our proposal night, to our engagement shoot, to our wedding day, I was nothing but impressed and elated with the photographs that Angelica delivers. She's professional, prompt, sweet, and so experienced. She's got the right equipment and expertise to capture the most beautiful moments and shots in any environment. Her husband and assistants are all wonderful as well! She makes you feel like you're a part of her family, and is willing to go anywhere! From NYC, she schlepped all the way to Sandy Hook, NJ for our engagement shoot at 6 AM on an August morning! No stress and fabulous photos! Thanks so much Angelica (and Matt)!!!

commend her to anyone shopping around for a wedding photographer.

d like a really nice idea. He wasn't too excited about the prospect, but as soon as we met Angelica and her husband Matt, he had to agree that a photo shoot wasn't too bad after all! ;) We were able to walk around the neighborhood for a lot of different settings, and she definitely went the extra mile for neat shots, from practically laying down on the ground to holding a flower up in the edge of the frame. The pictures are beautiful, and I'm so glad that it was a nice experience too. We did officially get engaged about a month later, and when the time comes we'll definitely plan to turn to her for engagement and wedding photos!

r photography package that would be best for us (both cost and creatives). Angelica was always attentive and responsive to our questions and concerns. On wedding day, she and her crew were so much fun to work with! Angelica provided photography "teasers" only 2 days after the wedding for our friends and family to enjoy. And then she provided the final web gallery within a month after the wedding. Amazing! Angelica truly captured our personalities and all moments of our special day! We highly recommend Angelica Criscuolo Photography!

schedules and give us a memorable experience. I LOVE our pictures. They really capture such a happy time in our lives! I will cherish them always and I'm sure they will continue to make me smile! Thanks again Angelica!!!

ted and what she offered. My finance and I instantly felt comfortable and at ease. We waited a while to do our engagement shoot because I wanted to do it in the spring and we got engaged in January...We shot that on a grey cool day in Battery Park, the session was fun and flew by, we loved the photos! The day of the wedding on a sunny WINDY day in June and Angelica was on time and ready to work when I arrived, she got all my "Must haves" and the best part was she uploaded the pictures on an ipad so the guest could view them during the ceremony. I have to say I am beyond happy with the photos and customer service!!!! Can't wait to use her services again in the future.

elped put us at ease immediately with their warm personalities and professionalism. They got to know us, our cultural preferences and personalities and catered the photo shoot accordingly. They used their years of experience to lead us to spectacular backdrops, help us pose for the camera, and capture us in amazing photos. Additionally, with our photo shoot scheduled for a cold winter day in NYC, they were very accommodating. They helped us throughout the process by holding our coats while we were in front of the camera, taking timely breaks to allow us to warm up, and even treating us to some much needed coffee. We had a great time at the photo shoot with Angelica and Matt and were thrilled with the photos we received. We've recommended them to our friends and family and would encourage anyone else who is seeking a photographer to choose Angelica Criscuolo Photography.

and really has a great eye for couples. She really took the time out to get to know us and our story. She took the time to listen to us and see what we wanted in an engagement shoot, and suggested a great venue for us! She also is extremely professional and timely in her email responses, which is important to me. She knew what time would be the best for us to shoot, and she got so many great pictures for not only our save the dates, but for us to keep for always. She knew how to work with both brides and grooms it seems, and we could really appreciate her knowing how to make us both comfortable since neither of us had ever done a photo shoot before! I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer. She is one of a kind.

ing shots and was very fast in getting proofs and final photos to us!

What impressed me the most is her sense of humor and the love she puts into her personal work. She is very efficient in her turnaround with getting images back to the client in a timely manner. We got ours in about TWO WEEKS after our wedding day. My husband is not a big fan of taking pictures and getting photographed but Angelica won him over instantly. What is truly special to us is that Angelica works alongside her husband who assists her during photo sessions whenever possible. We loved having this dynamic duo work alongside one another on our wedding day. I loved seeing how Angelica's husband truly supported her gifts, talents and abilities. We have embraced Angelica Criscuolo Photography as our FAMILY Photographer, who not only captured our Engagement pictures last spring (April 2012) during the Cherry Blossom season in the Brooklyn Botanical Gardens but who also blessed us with capturing our wedding day this year (April 2013). We look forward to continuing to work alongside her and having her capture many more lifetime milestones that are yet to come. For all brides considering a wedding photographer, hire Angelica Criscuolo Photography, one thing I will say for sure is that you can place all your trust in her. I was able to enjoy my wedding day and not worry about pictures I desired not being captured. Angelica captured all my requests and even captured additional images in accordance to her own taste and flavor with her creative eye. When my husband and I received back our wedding photos to view, we spent 3 hours looking through and reliving our wedding day. We cried as we slowly glimpsed at the images because each and every photo was detailed retelling of our special day, our wedding day. Thank you, Angelica Criscuolo Photography for capturing quality photographs that will last us a lifetime of memories. We love you, xoxo!!!

blend into the wedding party, she really did become part of the group. Far from taking people out the moment, many of the group shots became the moment. One of our best memories of the welcome party was Angelica jovially corralling the entire wedding party of over seventy people for a group shot. It was one of those moments everyone remembers, and a great picture to boot. On the wedding day itself, Angelica glided through the ceremony and reception effortlessly. Not a moment was disrupted or interrupted, yet all the important ones were captured. As we flick through our wedding photos, it’s wonderful to see the little things that we missed, but which Angelica was able to capture – the smiles on our parent’s faces, the genuine happiness of our guests, even a telling look between us that we don’t honestly recall. After shooting all day, Angelica then rose literally at dawn for a trash the dress session. Despite having little to no sleep, she was her usually personable and energetic self. You can tell she loves what she does, and that her heart is truly in it. We spent an enjoyable hour playing around on the beach, which delivered us fun and romantic Thank You photos. We’d wholeheartedly recommend Angelica to anyone looking for a good wedding photographer. She worked incredibly hard, took setbacks in her stride, and really added a lot to our wedding. We ended up with the kind of pictures that are only possible if your photographer marries technical ability, passion for their craft and the people skills to really enhance and capture the moments that will define your wedding.

nd made us feel like Rockstars for the day. We had sessions in Chelsea Market and Grand Central. They both put us at ease, and were really fun to work with. I particularly liked the way Angelica would take a shot, before encouraging us to ad lib a little before we moved on. You end up with the best of both worlds, well framed shots from a professional who knows her stuff, and some more candid pics really expressing your personalities. My fiancé really enjoyed working with Angelica too, and made one of the shots into the front of her credit card. In my more disheveled moments, folks refuse to believe it’s me! Angelica was punctual, polite and professional throughout what was actually a pretty long shoot. We had our pictures quickly, and everyone really liked them. We’d recommend Angelica to anyone seeking a high quality photographer.

l looking photos. We were so happy when we saw the proofs; there were so many different looking photos - she has a great artistic eye! She got them to us quickly and the program she uses is really user-friendly. If we were getting married in NYC we would DEFINITELY be using her as our wedding photographer also! We are so grateful for this invaluable gift she has given us and recommend her with the highest of praise to anyone looking for a great, fun, professional photographer!

ly be captured once, so it had better be done right! We were instantly impressed with the quality and experience Angelica and her husband brought to our special day. They had a great attitude which made everyone easy to interact with and it was really fun! The pictures were very creative and captured the moments of the day with a magical look. I'm glad that our memories of the best day of our lives were captured with such quality and style so that we can all look back and remember whenever we want to.

of photographs and the overall effect of her presentation was winning. Of course next I called and arranged a meeting to discuss my wishes. Not only was Angelica open to my goals, but she offered options I was not aware of. I was delighted that her proposal gave us exactly what we wanted. While at the wedding her presence was friendly and professional, and she never intruded on the ceremony. The end result was that her photographs were excellent, the composition and structure were stunning, Angelica was the consummate professional, not only was she reliable and did exactly what she said she would do in a most timely manner, but she seemed to be more of a welcomed guest at the wedding and reception and made it fun for all who were there to have their photos taken. I recommend Angelica for any photographic need but especially those special times when you want to capture the beauty of wonderful memories.

bridal show at Bergen Community College. Figured it be a fun start to all things wedding. When I got to the bridal show I quickly fell in love with Angelica (one of the three photographers at the show). She was extremely nice and her work was amazing, and I was lucky to win her free engagement shoot! My fiancé and I made arrangements to meet with Angelica at South Street Seaport for our shoot. She met us there with her husband/assistant. We had an amazing time and she made us feel very comfortable since neither one of us is use to being in front of the camera. We were super excited about getting our pictures back but I was going crazy knowing it would take2 weeks to get them back. To my surprise Angelica got out images done much faster and they were outrageous. Who knew we were such a hot couple! Plus you could barely see my braces in any of the pictures, which was big for me because I am not the biggest fan of them. I would defiantly recommend Angelica. She is friendly, nice, professional, timely, and her work is great! What more could you ask for?

at there was reason to worry. More than a few of the photography companies had the same pictures in their portfolios as other companies. Each claimed that the other must have been using them illegally. Some vendors used samples from photographers that they weren't employing anymore. Some vendors promised huge packages, but the quality of the pictures was missing. Upon putting all of the pieces together for this ugly puzzle, we feared that we would need to go way over budget for good quality pictures…but we were WRONG! Our decision to use Angelica Criscuolo was hands-down the smartest vendor choice we didn’t expect to make. We had seen her albums of editorial engagement shoots, baby shoots and freelance work on facebook which prompted a meeting. In our first meeting we had the usual chit-chat and then Angelica went on to tell us what was important and integral for her as a photographer. We were very pleasantly surprised that every point she made aligned beautifully with our wants for our wedding photography. She gave us a personalized package that fit our budget, and was perfect. We had a very untraditional affair and she fit right in with our ideals. She was free-flowing the morning of our wedding, never intruding on our natural excitement with instructions so we could have more candid shots…but also very good with direction when we took group and family pictures. With camera and accessories in tow, Angelica was able to capture our day, all our guests, and all the small details we want to remember from the best day of our lives. She was very accessable for questions and special requests. Although it was not discussed in advance, our families requested a few photos to be edited so we could have then out during the holidays. She edited 10-12 shots within 2 weeks of the wedding for use in family Christmas newsletters. As promised, she also had our entire website of proofs available within 3 months. I have never heard any other bride have such outstanding quality and fully edited pictures in such a short amount of time. She was dedicated, personable, professional and a lot of fun. I have recommended her to others for wedding and baby pictures, which also seems make a wonderful gift for soon-to-be-brides and moms. Angelica has a long future in photography, and I am sure my husband and I will use her services again for important affairs." -S. Burke

few weeks away at this point, and I contacted Angelica on a whim. Thankfully, since it was afternoon party, it fit into her schedule, and Angelica was fantastic. She was right on time, took all the photos I asked her to, and captured dozens of other meaningful moments I wasn't even aware were happening. It's a wonderful feeling to be surprised by photos of a party you attended! I never had to worry about a single thing. She got at least one photo of every single person at the party--and everything looks great. One of my bridesmaids called me, giddy, because her new boyfriend had changed his profile picture to Angelica's photo of him & her at the party. "I know it's because he thinks he looks good in it," she said, "but I don't care!" Angelica's a native New Yorker and knows the city well. She also deals well with a variety of personalities, from mine (clueless & indecisive), to my maid of honor (boisterous & bossy), to my family's (loud and Italian). She just fit right in--my dad even asked if she was one of my friends. After the party, my family unanimously reported that they loved Angelica, and that was before we even saw the pictures! Her prints are reasonably-priced and gorgeous (I ordered a few as Christmas presents). She has also gone above and beyond after the event. Our mail was stolen (including our image DVD), and she sent another right away. She also included a bonus ten-minute slideshow set to music, featuring all the images. Angelica just blew all our expectations out of the water. Honestly, I wondered if it was overkill to hire a professional photographer for an engagement party, but I am 100% glad we did. I didn't have to worry for a second about who had a camera and whether we were getting all the shots I wanted or if Grandma blinked during that special photo. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. If only choosing a venue were so easy!

t had this great personality and upbeat attitude that we knew that was a quality we wanted with our photographer. We didn't want someone too serious and wouldn't crack a smile while taking pictures and we didn't want someone who "fakes" a happy attitude since it just seems forced. We wanted someone...well human who understood what we were going through. Angelica herself was married recently so she understood the butterflies, the dilemma, our fears and so on. She assured us that as our photographer she'll make sure she gets the shots needed and keep our meddling relatives at bay. lol. And she did! Everyone of our guests commented how they loved her...not like...but love. You have to meet her to understand why. She was very professional, polite, courteous to our guest while being firm. Angelica is also honest and what we liked in addition to everything else was that she urged us to meet with other photographers to make sure we found the right one for us. Her work speaks for itself, and plus meeting her and her personality, she just stood out from the other photographers we met. Angelica is also flexible and worked with us. We had to change our wedding date and glad she had the newer date avaialable. As for our pictures...they're just amazing!!! She captured moments we didn't even know were happening and her style was perfect for us. She had various packages that fit any bride and we went for her Pearl Package initially, but started adding on so she customized the Silver package to better meet what we wanted for our wedding. Having a trusting, reliable, and amazing photographer was very comforting since we knew everything that has to do with photography would be handled well by Angelica. Thank you Angelica! We hope you know we value you, your work and we're definitely referring you and have been referring you to all our friends and family! We know they'll all be in good hands.
