Cynthia Chung Weddings

I chose Cynthia as our photographer for our elopement and wedding ceremony because her photos are warm, candid and intimate. I love her documentary-style work and especially her Love in Motion series. I also wanted to hire a photographer who was like me: Asian-American, grew up in NYC (knew the city well) and who also had a keen eye for what is elegant and beautiful. We loved working with Cynthia - she is fun, friendly, professional and a true expert on the best places to photograph in NYC! We cant' recommend her enough!

If you need a photographer, Cynthia is the ONE. We absolutely LOVED working with Cynthia! She is an amazing and talented photographer and our engagement and wedding photos turned out so beautiful!! And having GIFS included with your photos was such a delightful bonus to have! Cynthia has such a fun, lovely, friendly personality that we felt so comfortable and relaxed having her take our photos. She's super engaging and her warm heart and creativity truly shows not only in the photos she captures but also when communicating with her via email or instagram! We would absolutely love to work with her again. She was the BEST! Thank you so much Cynthia!

We cannot recommend Cynthia highly enough!! My husband and I were a bit nervous to be in front of the camera so much but Cynthia made us both feel at so at ease. She was a joy to work with and our wedding photos turned out beautifully. It's clear that Cynthia really enjoys what she does and she takes great care in capturing all the special moments of the day.

Cynthia is SPECTACULAR! She has an incredible eye for taking beautiful shots and we felt so relaxed and in good hands while working with her. Her aesthetics and style are absolutely gorgeous and I cannot recommend her more as a talented photographer. She even brought her assistant to help us manage our hyper dogs during the photoshoot, which was absolutely essential and smart. Thank you Cynthia for capturing such beautiful memories for my family and me!

Cynthia shot my elopement and it couldn't have been more perfect. She was punctual and incredibly professional. It was a cold winter day in December and having a photographer give you exact directions on how to pose and then getting her shots in a few quick snaps shows the breadth of her experience. Give her some details on what you're looking for and let her work her magic!

Cynthia takes the most amazing photos! If you like light, airy, romantic and natural photos, then she's the right photographer for you. I can't stop looking at my wedding photos as she made them so beautiful, I had a hard time picking the "best" ones to share with family/friends. She made an extra effort to catch the right lighting and come for a sunrise shoot, despite her busy schedule. I appreciate her attention to detail as she would fix a stray hair here or there, or listening to my requests for certain angles I preferred. She also knew how to make us both feel comfortable, keeping us natural in our photos. I ended up booking her for my post-wedding shoot, since she was not available my wedding day. Book her asap as she's in very high demand. I've loved the experience and the photos. I'm sure you will love it too!

My now wife and I decided to elope to NYC on very short notice. We quickly googled around and found Cynthia. She emailed us back very quickly, and we soon scheduled a video call to discuss details. She was not only very bubbly, friendly, and down-to-earth, but also extremely helpful and insightful. We talked through our thoughts and ideas and she provided very helpful insight and helped talk us through some necessary changes to our plans as well as offering several good options for hotels, photo and ceremony locations, and even several good officiators. She also let us know of some of the legal stuff we would need to look into and answered our questions about COVID restrictions in NYC. Overall, she was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Despite the fairly short-notice, she was able to fit us and our ceremony in to her schedule. She was also very flexible! When we booked her, we knew the day we were going to have the ceremony, but we hadn’t finalized the ceremony time or location as we still had to confirm the time with the officiate and we needed to see the hotel balcony in person to see if it would be big enough or if we’d have to use a spot in Central Park that Cynthia knew of. Booking her and paying her was very easy too! She had us fill out and sign a simple electronic contract with common-sense clauses. She offered multiple easy payment options including chase quickpay, venmo, paypal, and zelle of which we decided to use venmo. Cynthia was very good about getting back to us quickly whenever we’d email her with any changes or information. We had to coordinate with both her and our officiate for the time and of the ceremony, for instance, and she was always very fast to respond. On the day-of, she and her assistant Kim showed up early and they were even nicer in person! She and Kim were even helping us figure out how we should do our little mini ceremony on our hotel suite balcony with just the two of us, our officiate, and helped us set up our webcasting setup for some friends and family who were watching via Zoom. Cynthia took us to all of the best places in Central Park and Kim helped carry my backpack with some water for the two of us. Even though I had paid for an extra hour, giving us 3 hours total of her time, the two of them actually ended up working a bit longer than that without charging us any extra! She shared a sneak peak photo or two with us to share on social media by the following day, and told us to expect all of the finalized photos within 8 weeks. She emailed us with the link to our photos on her online platform much sooner than that at 4 weeks from our ceremony! The website gallery she has set up is very easy to share with friends and family and includes options for saving either reduced or high-resolution photos to your cloud service such as Google Photos and to your computer. The gallery website’s prices are pretty steep, but there is a 20% discount for a couple weeks if you should choose to buy directly from it. For us, we’re content to get prints elsewhere since we have the high-resolution photos saved, but it’s nice to have the options! The photos are absolutely stunning! The compositions highlight her expertise and artistic eye and her craftsmanship is clearly evident in the elegant editing and curation. In total, she gave us 669 fully-edited high-resolution photos including several GIFs! We would recommend Cynthia Chung to anyone and everyone looking for an amazing photographer.

I am so grateful for Cynthia and I'd recommend her 1000x over to anyone looking for someone to capture their special moments! Looking through Cynthia's website actually helped me figure out how I wanted to get married in NYC, so she unknowingly gave us a lot of creative inspiration. And then she was just as great to work with- incredibly communicative, helped guide and shared advice on what to expect/how best to time out our elopement ceremony + shoot and made us feel incredibly comfortable at the shoot itself. The pictures are INCREDIBLE- she really captured everyone's raw emotion, brought to life the creative vision (it was important to me that the photos really feel like New York City since it's such a special place for my husband and I) and it was so fun to be able to relive our elopement day through her photos. We are so grateful- I can't wait to find other opportunities to work with her again!!

Cynthia was a dream to work with. Her communication and attention to detail before, during, and after our wedding was fantastic. And most importantly, she delivered so, so many wonderful images!!

We really appreciated Cynthia's ability to immediately make us feel comfortable during the photo shoot (and we are pretty camera-shy people!) and it really showed in the photos we received. She is very organized, punctual and just overall lovely to work with as well, which is a big plus on what can be a stressful day. We can't recommend her enough!

I knew Cynthia was amazing the moment I saw her pictures online when I was searching for photographers to shoot my very small wedding. I contacted her and instantly felt like I was talking to an old buddy! She is so friendly and talented! The day was a laid back very chilled out vibe kind of wedding and she captured that feeling in the pictures and caught every small special moment in every shot! I love ALL of my pics that she sent me. I feel so lucky to have found her for our special day!!!! Best photographer ever!!!!!

When I first "met" Cynthia via phone call, I felt like was talking to a friend I've had forever. And when I finally met her in person, she gave me a big hug and made our experience stress free. She makes taking wedding pictures feel as natural as possible, is on time and organized, and is an absolute pleasure to work with. Her and her assistant were so kind, and I am so glad I chose her for our special day.

When I look back on my wedding day years from now, I will think about the time we spent with Cynthia and her assistant Kim as they documented our special day. Cynthia made us feel so comfortable, so supported, so taken care of throughout the entire process. Her professionalism, eye for photography, and attention to detail were obvious. Not to mention she's just an amazing person to be around!!! DO NOT HESITATE in booking Cynthia for your event. She's a total pro at what she does and you will feel like you've made a new friend!

Working with Cynthia was a fantastic experience and we HIGHLY recommend her services. Leading up to our wedding, Cynthia checked in with us regularly; gave us suggestions on the flow of our event, and made a plan to ensure we got all of the photos we wanted. On the day of the event, Cynthia was punctual and professional. She did such a good job making us feel comfortable while we were taking photos. She has a great eye for photos and made sure we maximized our time while taking photos without feeling like we were rushing. The photos that Cynthia took were stunning. She sent us a full catalog of photos that came out perfect and also offers a number of options for printing/framing. If you are looking for a wedding photographer, look no further than Cynthia. She was such a vital part of our event and we couldn’t have been happier with the service she provided.

We found out about Cynthia online, and I am so glad we did! Her beautiful and cheery style was what drew us to her work, and we are so pleased with how the photos came out. She was communicative leading up to our wedding, very professional and personable on the day of. We appreciated how she and her assistant made the effort to engage with our guests throughout the reception in a way that they could get candid shots of all of the moments. The GIFs are such a unique and fun part of her style and we love how they came out!

My husband and I had the best time working with Cynthia for our micro-wedding/elopement. We aren’t the most comfortable when it comes to getting our pictures taken, but she made us feel relaxed and at ease while also keeping our energy up throughout the whole session. The entire experience, from initial conversation of what we were looking for to the day itself, was stress free and a blast. We are so happy that we chose to work with Cynthia and couldn’t recommend her more!

Cynthia and her assistant were incredible. We were looking specifically for someone who had shot City Hall weddings/small ceremonies before and was familiar with what to expect. Cynthia was professional and also a wonderful person to have around all weekend. Our photos turned out beautiful, and we were so glad she had captured every little moment that we hoped.

Cynthia and her team were amazing to work with. Cynthia communicated very effectively leading up the wedding and on the day of, she and her team arrived early and kept us on track with our timeline. We were specific about making sure all the group photos were done before the ceremony and Cynthia made sure our shot list was completed with plenty of time to spare. Cynthia has amazing energy and we were beyond happy with the photos we received. Her gallery website is very user friendly and we loved her documentary style shooting and clear crisp and bright editing. Working with Cynthia was one of the best decisions we made when planning our wedding!

I have been familiar with Cynthia's photography for several years and did not even bother looking at other photographers when it came time to do a photoshoot. She has such an amazing eye for capturing beautiful and visually interesting photos. My husband and I did an engagement-style photoshoot to commemorate our marriage (we did not have a wedding) and had such a blast working with Cynthia! She is fun and relaxed, and made us feel the same. We couldn't be happier with how the photos turned out, they are absolutely gorgeous. Could not recommend Cynthia more highly!!!

Look no further in your search for the right photographer than Cynthia, a wonderful and talented photographer for any occasion. Her work is really terrific, but it’s her warm personality, acumen, and vision that stands her out from the rest. Hands down, she is amazing. We hope to work with her again in the future!

Our engagement photography session was supposed to happen last year but was delayed because of COVID-19. Cynthia was very understanding and accommodating about the whole situation and we were able to reschedule for this year. Although we were quite nervous at the beginning of the session, she made us feel right at ease with her jokes and conversation. The weather that day was also less than ideal but she maintained a very positive attitude and our photos still turned out absolutely gorgeous! It was wonderful working with Cynthia and we cannot recommend her enough!

I had been following Cynthia on Instagram for some time and really loved her work. I was very excited that we were able to book her even though it was at somewhat short notice. Cynthia was very responsive and thorough in answering all our questions. On the day of our wedding, she was very patient with all our guests and really made us comfortable during our session. She was a very sweet and friendly person to work with and we had a lot of fun during our session, we almost forgot how tired we were. We just got our photos back and are very pleased with the end result. If you do decide to book with Cynthia, you won't regret it.

Cynthia was a joy to work with. She was the most responsive and dependable photographer we talked to. We felt at ease hiring her for elopement shoot knowing that we were well taken care of. She guided us through the whole process, took care of selecting locations for us and was extremely accommodating when we had to put our session on hold for nearly half a year due to COVID. Most importantly our pictures turned out great.

Cynthia is the best! She was super responsive and accommodating with the number of questions and changes we threw her way (yay for Covid weddings). My now-husband and I are typically very awkward when taking photos, but her cheerful personality and creative direction made it seem easy and natural for her to capture the perfect shot. Of course, the photos themselves came out absolutely stunning. If you’re looking for beautifully staged (and candid) photos, a responsible photographer, and an overall comfortable and fun experience, Cynthia brings it all :)

Just got our pictures back from our photoshoot! Cynthia was the absolute best to work with. I hate taking pictures and can never get comfortable but she just made it so easy and fun! You're never lost as to how to pose/what to do with your hands if you're awkward because she gives excellent direction. She was also extremely responsive to all my questions, no matter how ridiculous they were. 100% recommend! I'm so happy with all the pictures too. The gifs are so special as well. Thank you cynthia!!

Cynthia was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was flexible and made the whole process stress free for my wife and I. She really has an eye for photography and her work is top notch. I would not think twice about recommending her to anybody that I know.

I highly recommend working with Cynthia for whatever your photography needs are. My husband and I worked with her for our elopement and not only is she a very talented photographer, but she is just so great and easy to work with; especially during a pandemic! She made it a great experience that kind of just felt like we were hanging out. My husband is known for not wanting to take photos, but even he admitted that it ended up being kind of fun for him. She was able to really capture so many great photos that it’s been kind of hard deciding which ones to print and display; and she even made gifs with the images! Cynthia is so kind and I honestly cannot recommend her enough.

We found Cynthia on instagram, fell in love and has been avid fans ever since! We were super thrilled when she said yes to photographing us in midst this pandemic craziness! She's a magician with her work and all the photos turned out amazing! Friends and family are raving about the photos being, "magical," "dreamy" and "out of a fairytale." Working with Cynthia was super easy with her flexibility, professionalism and the talent to make you feel at ease in front of the lens in mere seconds. Hire. Her. Now.

My husband and I are so blown away by the amazing photos Cynthia captured for our wedding! She went above and beyond by being so disarming and creative. From the moment we met her we were so at ease. Cynthia is worth every penny. She is professional and will capture your special moments! Thank you Cynthia for everything!

Cynthia took our engagement photos and I'm still in awe of them to this day. She was AMAZING to work with--super organized, reliable, and listens to what you're looking for (and makes cool suggestions if you need it). Her bubbly personality makes you feel like a NATURAL in front of the camera and she tells you exactly what to do (without feeling uncomfortable or awkward at all--a huge plus). Her engagement session felt like a fun, chill day at the park followed by some fun shots at a ramen restaurant! Photographs last a lifetime, so it's important to invest in the photographer you know your soul wants. And for us, it was Cynthia Chung Photography! Highly recommend for any engagement, wedding, elopement, or family shoot.

Cynthia took our engagement shoot, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. She took amazing photos without question, but more poignantly for someone like me who doesn't take photos often, she made the shoot enjoyable, comfortable, and memorable. It's rare to find such a blend of high craftsmanship, professionalism, and friendliness.

Cynthia & her entire team were a DREAM COME TRUE! I found her while scrolling through instagram & instantly my heart was set! I wanted a photographer who specialized in NYC / editorial-esque style --- she did not disappoint! I was SO excited to hire a photog who could absolutely capture not only the magic of a wedding, but the absolute BEAUTY , ENERGY, AMBIANCE of every detail of the day. i was not a typical bride by many measures, but Cynthia helped me to balance the "traditional wedding photo" expectation from my parents with the NYC GLAM / CITY STREET vibe that i wanted so desperately....WORTH EVERY PENNY!! Her team was literally the most kind, easy going, and absolute professionals -- they made our wedding day a DREAM. THANK YOU!!! XOXOXOX

After months of agonizing and dragging our feet on what type of wedding we wanted, it became clear a simple elopement in the city where we met was the solution. Luckily, we were recommended Cynthia by a friend in the arts and despite it being a bit last minute, she was able to squeeze us into her schedule on the date we wanted. In typical NYC fashion, it rained (more like poured) on our day but our small crew had prepared umbrellas and was ready to see it though. They became the perfect accessory! The pictures came out romantic, sweet with a dash of melancholy - infused with the vibes of the city and reflective of our introverted selves. We felt immediately at ease and relaxed with Cynthia, like we had known her forever! No matter the weather conditions, she took her and her crew took it with stride and their experience & professionalism were amazing. I couldn't have imagined a better team. We had a blast being creative and exploring the hidden spaces of the neighborhood. She truly captured our spirit and to this day when I look back at the photos, I can still remember all the laughter and fun vibes we had together during the shoot. Definitely would like to work with her again; she's got wonderful skills, a great eye and overall a truly lovely person to have with you on your special day!

Cynthia was hands-down our favorite vendor for our wedding! She was recommended by a friend after we had a hard time finding someone within our budget that also understood our style. Cynthia was the perfect fit starting from our introductory call, during the planning process, and throughout our long and hectic wedding day. She not only played the role of photographer but also coordinator (and good friend by the end of the day). We are so grateful that she, along with her second photographer Martin, brought their expertise to help move us along the schedule and keep us on time while never rushing us. Cynthia was so fun to be around and our wedding party and family members raved about her in the weeks following. We received our photos within a few weeks in beautiful packaging and are so happy with how they came out. Also, so pumped about our whole folder of GIFs!! Thank you Cynthia for being a part of our big day. We highly recommend her for your wedding!

Where to begin, Cynthia was the absolute best to work with! Right from the beginning when we had a Skype interview, we knew she was the right fit for us with her positive energy and bright personality. She also was super flexible and instead of doing a traditional engagement photoshoot, she came to our engagement party and took photos of just the two of us and also our family and friends at the party. For our wedding, she was extremely professional and worked closely with our wedding planners, which made it a breeze for us with everything going on in the prep and lead up to the big day! She scouted our wedding location in advance too, which was super helpful--she truly went the extra mile. On the day of, her team was on-time and on top of the shot list we hoped to capture. Despite it being super windy outside which caused a slight change in our original plans, we still were able to get beautiful photos and could not be more pleased with everything. Her GIF photos are also so unique and amazing, our family loved looking at all the moments captured. If you're considering Cynthia for your wedding photographer, look no further! She's Uhhh-mazing!

Cynthia is AMAZING. The photographs she takes are stunning and special, and are a truly beautiful way to remember such an important moment, but it's so much more than that. She has the uncanny ability to be absolutely everywhere at once and yet be completely invisible-- she captured every single moment, even the ones we didn't know were happening, and did so without drawing the focus to her or even letting people know they were being photographed, which led to some amazing candid shots. She's also the absolute SWEETEST and so so easy to work with. She's super friendly and so you feel really relaxed around her, which leads to some incredible portraits. I highly recommend taking engagement photos with her in addition to day-of photography-- I love that ours captured a more casual side of us and even more of our favorite places, but it also gives you more of an opportunity to get used to working with Cynthia and being in front of the camera. I noticed a huge difference between the photos we took at the beginning and end of the engagement shoot, and then between those and our wedding day photos. We were SO comfortable day-of because of that extra time with Cynthia, and the photos definitely turned out better for it. Finally, Cynthia is super fun, and that comes across in her photography. She's very game to experiment with settings and props, and very willing to go along with whatever crazy suggestions you have for where you want to have your photo taken. The photos she took are not only beautiful memories, they're a delightful encapsulation of us. THANK YOU CYNTHIA!!!

First and foremost, we love Cynthia. Her personality and professional attitude made her extremely comfortable to be around and work with. She is an experienced photographer & editor that brings a uniqueness and warmth to all of the photos we took with her. Often what defines vendors isn't how well they do their jobs, but in how they react when things go wrong. No one expects things to go south on their wedding day, but if they do, trust that Cynthia will be there to back you up as your photographer to make sure you, your wedding entourage and your photos are taken care of to the highest standard and the best of her ability. We loved working with Cynthia and would highly recommend her! Her expertise, fun personality, and her strength and resilience to take care of us on our wedding day were exactly what we needed. The photos turned out beautiful and we love re-living our wedding day through the photos. Thank you so much!

Cynthia is AMAZING! When looking for a wedding photographer, we wanted someone to not only capture the beauty of the day, but the love between us and everyone there. Cynthia went above and beyond our expectations! Not only did she make us feel comfortable and like ourselves in front of the camera, she found the most artistic and creative backdrops at our venue. Her GIFs are a fun addition to the photo gallery! She is energetic, organized, prompt, and so talented!! Looking through the photos she took instantly brings us back to each moment of the best day, and we are forever thankful for that. Cynthia started the day as our wedding photographer, but ended the day as our friend! We can’t recommend her enough!

Cynthia is an absolutely fab photographer and such a lovely gal!!!! Our wedding day was small and wonderful and she captured every moment perfectly (along with calming our nerves and total fear of the camera!) Cynthia was not only our photographer, but also our witness and we're super happy that we have a collection of amazing photos to look back on and share with our family and friends. I cannot recommend Cynthia enough, she's really relaxed, super professional and helped us with everything, from beginning to end. What an absolute STAR! Thank you so much for making our day so special!!!

It's hard to find the words to describe how special Cynthia made our wedding. We eloped on our 6 year anniversary in NYC which had been something I dreamed about since I was little - before ever moving to New York. It was just my husband and I and his best friend from high school who married us. It was so intimate and Cynthia fit right in - she immediately felt like a long-time friend. We had never had professional photos done before and Cynthia made them so easy. She was great at giving direction and I never felt awkward or too posed or out of place. So many of my favorite photos are ones she captured of us just chatting and laughing and when I look at them I'm instantly in that moment and feel like I just married my person all over again. Cynthia is the easiest person to talk to, get a hold of, ask a question, chat about life, and spend a day with. I'd chose her again anytime!

What an amazing photographer! We were thrilled to have Cynthia as our wedding photographer. She has a wonderfully artistic eye and documented so many special moments from our big day. She really captured the spirit of our wedding. Cynthia was very easy to work with. She is a true professional, and her fun and enthusiastic energy helped us relax in front of the camera. Cynthia was also very patient with our sometimes-demanding family members who wanted a lot of specific group photos. We're so happy that we chose Cynthia and would highly recommend her!

Cynthia was the absolute best ever!!!!! My wedding day was a blast and she perfectly captured every moment. I'm so happy I get to relive that day by looking through her amazing photos. But beyond just her photography skills, she is so professional, very easygoing yet so organized and on top of everything, she knew how to help us relax in order to get the best photos out of us, and was all around an absolute pleasure to work with. Honestly, my whole wedding day experience was enhanced because she was a part of it. So happy to have worked with her!!!!!

Cynthia was a dream to work with!!! She captured our engagement and our dream-come-true wedding. We shared our vision and she made it happen. We are thrilled with the photos and will relive our special event for years to come. She is incredibly responsive, engaging, and so fun and can't recommend her enough! We hope to work with her again in the future.

Cynthia!!! Wow! I don’t even know where to begin! Our engagement pictures are more beautiful than I could have imagined! I am completely obsessed and thrilled. Thank you so so much for everything! We will cherish these forever. It was such a pleasure to work with you. Lots of love!

Cynthia perfectly documented our elopement in NYC. She was extremely friendly and helpful and generally made us feel at ease - helping us have the most wonderful wedding day. The photographs were wonderfully natural and captured some treasured memories amidst some of the most iconic sights in New York! I highly recommend Cynthia for your wedding day!

My husband and I wanted a simple modern day elopement at the courthouse and after much research of the courthouses in New York, lighting and background was borderline abhorrent which presented us with a challege of wanting good photos and documentation but had to find the right photographer experience. Cue in Cynthia Chung, along my research! She had a blog of elopements she shot and they looked natural, organic and the pictures in the courthouse itself looked good! With her experience, she knew how to navigate the courthouse employees and knew what we wanted documented. Courthouse was short and sweet so we had plenty of time after to do more posey couple pictures and those turned out exceptional! I hired her for her experience in elopements and also for the gifs she makes! And she delivered with more than enough that I absolutely love! My husband doesn't like his pictures taken but he enjoyed the experience and the pictures themselves so much! Cynthia helped us to be comfortable in front of the camera and she was warm yet professional. Afterwards, I felt like I knew her for years! She's worth every minute and cent if you want natural and fun pictures of your special day. Can't praise her enough, she went beyond what I ever expected. THANK YOU SO MUCH CYNTHIA!

Cynthia was such a fun and upbeat photographer! She is super talented and I love her personality. She was easy to communicate with and you can definitely see that she loves her work. Even though we changed locations and had a long day, she was full of energy and was such a pleasure to be with. I would recommend her to everyone!

Cynthia was the best wedding/engagement photographer that we could have imagined. She not only captured our personalities in the most beautiful way but made the entire experience seamless and enjoyable! We had so much laughing and talking with her and her amazing team. The pictures came back so fast and were perfect!

Cynthia was fantastic. Creative and very professional . We absolutely love all our wedding photos and couldn't have asked for a better photographer for our day! Would recommend a million times over! Thanks again. Mike and Meagan!

My husband and I are based in the UK and eloped in NYC in February 2019. Booking Cynthia as our photographer was a major task checked off our list as photos were extremely important given that none of our friends and family were going to be there and we wanted to share our memories of the day with them through photos. On the day itself when we arrived at the marriage bureau, Cynthia and her assistant were already waiting for us. She was warm and friendly and made us feel comfortable right away, it was like chatting to a friend. She was able to capture the entire day: from waiting for our number to be called so we could get married, to the 2 minute ceremony itself, us hailing a cab, and sessions at Dumbo and Greenwich village. A month later, we received the photos and we couldn't be happier, my husband especially likes the 'gifs', Cynthia is well known for her 'love in motion' shots and it's like having short video highlights of the day. Overall, we are very happy with Cynthia's professionalism and the product itself!

When we started wedding planning, the first thing we wanted to do was research photographers. I came across Cynthia's work on IG and immediately felt like she's the one for us! Cynthia's photographs speak for themselves, but beyond that, she is an incredible resource to have while planning a wedding. We really lucked out with Cynthia. She was great behind the camera, and made us feel comfortable and got a lot of great shots. She and her team were quickly welcomed into our special day and we were thrilled to have had them help us capture our special day.

Cynthia was awesome!! She and her team is very professional, fun and most of all produces awesome photos!! We had Cynthia for our engagement and wedding photos and they turned out beautifully. Very artistic! She is also extremely well organized so it made sifting through our photos very easily. Day of the wedding she took the lead and guided us and our videographers. She is also very open to my ideas and incorporated everything we wanted to do!

Cynthia is amazing. I usually dislike taking photos, but having Cynthia as our wedding photographer (and Martin as an assistant) was a dream! She made me, my husband, and our respective family/friends very comfortable. Cynthia is not only professional and highly talented, she is personable, warm and so incredibly easy to work with. She was very knowledgeable about all things wedding, so she was also a valuable resource for random wedding questions I had! I loved my wedding photos and I wholeheartedly recommend Cynthia’s services for any occasion!

We heard about Cynthia through a friend and couldn't be more grateful to have her as a photographer for our engagement shoot and wedding. Cynthia was professional, warm, knowledgeable, and fun from our very first conversation. She was very punctual in her responses and answered every one of my questions (and I had a lot!). We had so much fun during the engagement shoot. My husband are I are both very awkward in front of the camera and Cynthia made us feel comfortable through the whole process. She was exceptionally creative when it comes to seizing the best moments or spots for photos. Cynthia was also instrumental in helping us plan our day of schedule, you can really tell that she has so much experience when it comes to weddings and very accommodating to the changes we made throughout the process. She was also kind enough to go with me to the venue several days before the wedding (on probably the hottest day of the year) to discuss my vision and details. We couldn't have imagine our wedding day without Cynthia! She was SIMPLY AMAZING! We had so much fun during the bridal shoots, she got along so well with our bridal party and made everything so fun, which was so important because the day can get pretty hectic. She was amazing at capturing the details and intimate moments from our wedding. You can feel her enthusiasm that she loves her craft and job. We felt like we relived our wedding day when we got our pictures back! At the end of the day we felt that Cynthia wasn't just there to do her job but genuinely invested to make sure we have the day that we will always remember.

Cynthia is absolutely awesome. We were so lucky to have her as our photographer! From our very first introductory meeting, through the big day and even after, she felt like a great, and wildly supportive friend that just happened to be a talented professional photographer. She had such a genuine joy and enthusiasm that put us, our family, wedding party, and guests all at ease. She was able to capture such fun and candid moments on the dance floor because she was shimmy-ing along with us! But her professionalism was top-notch, the images were beautiful, she was always prompt in communication, very clear, and did such an incredible job. The team she brought was also extremely professional and coordinated the wedding party and evening shot list with ease. We would highly recommend her!

Cynthia was such pleasure to work with - she brought an awesome vibe to our wedding day and we were so happy with our decision to have her as our wedding photographer! Cynthia kept us organized on the day of the wedding, and our photos came out so beautiful. She captured our day perfectly. Cynthia also did our engagement shoot and we are in love with those pictures as well. I highly recommend Cynthia and am so happy we found her on the Knot!

Cynthia is AMAZING! I was a bridesmaid for another wedding Cynthia did and really enjoyed her vibe and how she really tailors everything to the bride and groom. Cynthia traveled to Philadelphia for our wedding, and was extremely patient with our requests, family photos, and working with all of our vendors. We absolutely love our photos and gifs, and would 10/10 recommend her!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Cynthia. She is professional, talented and managed to mesh in as the Bridal party was getting ready like another wonderful friend. I had some concerns about photography like the fact that we got married in the winter and had little daylight as well as the fact that my husband hates taking photos, on both counts Cynthia was great. She used the lighting to her advantage making the it appear subtle and romantic and even managed to capture little intimate moments between my husband and I. I also love the pictures she got of my goofy faces while getting ready - we aren't all graceful butterflies and it was wonderful to see that she truly captured my personality. She has a calming presence and a great eye. I would and have recommended her to friends and family.

we had cynthia take our engagement and wedding photos, and they came out amazing! she had great ideas regarding location, style, etc. she was so responsive and helpful throughout the whole planning process. the reason why we chose cynthia as our wedding photographer, besides her beauriful work, was because of her bubbly and passionate personality. we clicked instantly, and i’m so appreciative of her help in loosening up my then-fiancé/now-husband in loosening up for all the photos! he was beyond nervous, and cynthia encouraged him and joked around us to put us all at ease. i can’t say enough good things about cynthia, and have recommended her to all my friends looking for wedding photographers.

Cynthia was recommended to us from a close friend who also worked with her for their wedding. She did not disappoint! Not only do we love all of our photos but on the day she made the whole day and night feel fun and relaxed. Nothing ever felt too posed or artificial- we loved that about Cynthia. Was so great to have her be a part of our special day!

My husband and I got married this past August, and Cindy and her assistant Martin are THE dream team. I knew she booked fast, and reached out to her about a year in advance. When I did, she was warm, understanding, friendly, and extremely organized. Honestly, working with her was the easiest part of the whole wedding planning experience... The day of the wedding, Cindy and Martin made us feel so comfortable. It was just like hanging out with some friends, no stress at all. They showed up on time, made us feel at ease, and we felt very confident that the photos would turn out amazing. When we received the photos (in an extremely timely manner!) we were amazed. They took lovely, lovely photos. My husband and I are both pretty awkward around cameras, but they made us look like models, which is not an easy thing to do! They brought out the best in us, and for that we are so, so grateful to have worked with them. Here's the bottom line: Choose Cynthia Chung Weddings...it will be the best decision you'll make.

Did a session in Chinatown/Downtown with Cynthia and it was amazing! She was so fun and made us feel super comfortable.

Cynthia was a joy to work with. She was always willing to help and provide information we needed so we could communicate with other vendors. She was very professional and really helped with de-stressing us the day of our wedding. She taught all the groomsmen how to make hearts with their fingers. She was also very patient considering we had so many group portraits. The pictures came out fabulous.

We absolutely loved having Cynthia as our wedding photographer and we were even more in love with our final photos! I’ve had multiple friends ask me who my photographer was because we “have the best photos”!!! And so they can mental note her to use in the future ;) From the moment we met her we were laughing and having a great time. She captured all of our intimate moments and expressions. Some of the shots I didn’t even know she was there! If we could repeat our special day again, we would 100% want Cynthia to be our photographer.

My wife knew Cynthia from New York. At first, I wasn't so sure about flying someone out from NYC to San Francisco, but I'm so glad we did! I'm not sure if anyone from San Francisco could've done such an amazing job as Cynthia did. She arrived causally early, was extremely easy-going, and managed the photography amongst the bustling wedding day rush very well. She was polite, energetic, and genuinely delighted to be there on our special day. She knew what she was doing! It made me very comfortable knowing that she was confident in the work that she was doing. She was responsive after the wedding. We needed a nice photo to send out within the week as a thank you to our guests. She got that to us within 24 hours. She completed out pictures after our one-month honeymoon. The timing couldn't have been more perfect. I would highly recommend Cynthia to all of my friends and friends' friends! These photos last forever. Thank you Cynthia!

Cynthia is absolutely amazing. She's talented, professional, punctual, funny, and just a lovely human being! I couldn't have asked for a better photographer for my wedding. I had my photos taken in San Francisco since I moved to the bay from New York. Cynthia was able to take wonderful photos in a new city. She helped me choose the locations to take photos and was open to listening to my needs. It was so much fun running around San Francisco and it made my wedding day so memorable. Working with Cynthia was like working with my best friend. She was responsive to my peculiar questions and I trusted her with her skills! Thank you for making us look so beautiful! I would 10/10 recommend Cynthia to all my friends.

I found Cynthia Chung Photography while doing research online, and she couldn’t have been more PERFECT. Her gorgeous pictures in everyday locations speak loud and clear for themselves, because she can turn any backdrop into a vision you didn’t even know could have been possible. Also, behind the camera, she’s the type of photographer that can connect with you on a personal level and will make you laugh and feel unbelievably relaxed to be yourself. Cynthia Chung was worth every enjoyable minute to capture the special moments of our wedding! Not only did I hire her for my catholic wedding, she was also there for my Indian-Sikh wedding in the same weekend. I am beyond happy with her work and I am very appreciative of the experience I had with her. I speak for myself, but I truly hope you take the chance to find out first hand.

Cynthia took our pre-wedding photo and she is absolutely the best! Those photos and gifs are simply amazing! it's a great experience and fun time! 5 starts with no doubt! We will definitely tag her and recommend her to our friends and who seek an adventurous NYC shootout!

From our first meeting with Cynthia we knew she would be amazing at capturing our special day. She has that fun and professional personality at the same time always making us smile from her smile on her face. The day of our wedding she showed up on time and ready to go! Cynthia made sure we were both comfortable posing for shots as we are both naturally shy. She was never demanding or awkward in her directions but kind and friendly. We had spoke about certain shots we wanted prior to our day with our big family and she was able to delegate and organize in a timely manner so they all can go enjoy cocktail hour, the end result was just what we wanted. She stayed with us up until the very end of our night and made sure everything was accounted for. The finalized products were vivid and beautiful, we couldn’t wait to share them with our family. She sent us a neatly packaged flash drive with all of the photos organized in a manner that was clear and concise. We can relive our special day over and over again through the story Cynthia told through her lens. We are grateful that she was the one to document and storytell our wedding!

We had our engagement session with Cynthia and she made us awkward turtles feel immediately at ease with her warm energy and bubbliness. If you're like us and have never had professional photos taken in your life, Cynthia is your woman! She'll direct you, so no worries about coming up with pretty poses on your own. We ended up having a lot of fun over the course of the two hours and felt much more comfortable, too. And our photos turned out lovely! Thanks Cynthia!

Cynthia is absolutely the best! I have to say I was quite picky but I knew that I wanted to work with Cynthia at the moment when I saw her portfolio. And I am not the kind of person who enjoys photo shoots but Cynthia just had the magic making everything comfortable and pleasant. She was of course professional (knowing a bunch of the cool/beautiful places for photo shooting and giving advice on how to pose etc.), and she was so cute and funny! We kept talking and laughing during those two hours and felt like we knew each other from very long time ago. Thank you Cynthia for your wonderful job and hope to work with you again in the future!

We got our engagement photos shot by Cynthia and we could not stop raving about her to our friends and family! We had such a fun and amazing time during our engagement session. We spent the entire time talking and laughing that it felt like we were with an old friend, rather than someone we just met. Cynthia was great with picking out spots around the area, as well as telling us how to pose and where to look. Everything felt so natural, and the photos turned out amazing!! My fiance and I are so glad Cynthia got to be part of our wedding journey!

HIRE CYNTHIA! If you're looking for someone who is cool, calm and has a great laugh, then Cynthia is your girl. Our photos were real moments in time, with genuine smiles and hugs and tears. No manufacturing of memories! She caught a snap of almost every single guest, made all of us feel comfortable (especially for two people who hate being the center of attention and getting photos taken), and her work speaks for itself. She was prompt, always quick with a reply, and was essential in figuring the "day of timeline" My only piece of advice would be to make sure you give her your "shot" list of people you MUST have photos taken with! I forgot to give her ours and i missed out on some photos ("staged" photo with my dad for instance) since i completely forgot on the day of.

Cynthia is a true artist! I can't speak more highly of her. She did a stunning job with the engagement pictures and our wedding pictures were an absolute dream! We have been watching them over and over. She was able to capture so many sweet moments with all our family and friends- without us even noticing or knowing she was there. I am so glad we chose to work with her and have her picture for the rest of our lives.

We were incredibly fortunate to have Cynthia be our engagement and wedding photographer. I've been a fan of her work for awhile and can say without a doubt that she will MAKE your wedding day. Our friends and family could not stop raving about how sweet and professional she is and she made sure all the details were figured out. When we had a slight chance of rain on our big day, she was incredibly calming and had everything covered. Cynthia is the best and I can't recommend her enough.

Choosing Cynthia as our photographer was the best vendor decision we made for our wedding. Cynthia has such an awesome bubbly personality. She will keep you laughing and your nerves calm admist wedding day stress. Our bridal party and hair and makeup vendors also raved about her. Cynthia was super easy to work with and very accommodating in rescheduling our engagement shoot due to rain. She also helped us navigate through temperamental weather on our wedding day. We love the pictures and creative gifs she made that capture beautiful memories we'll treasure forever.

When we hired Cynthia to shoot our wedding photos, we were very much charmed by her enthusiasm and personality. She was incredibly communicative from start to finish and was able to work around our limited budget. On our big day, she made us feel relaxed in front of the camera, and picked additional locations to photograph that we hadn't considered but turned out so well. She and her assistant were incredibly professional with the guests who were overly excited with their iPhones! I would highly recommend Cynthia if you are seeking a documentary-style photographer with lots of enthusiasm and a keen eye for her subjects. She is incredibly talented and we could not be more thrilled at how our wedding photos turned out.

Cynthia is amazing! I've followed her work for a few years and when I got engaged I knew I needed to call her to do our photoshoot. We got along so well she ended up doing my wedding too! Not only did the photos come out amazing (and I have a pretty high standard as a creative director), but she was so fun, and a joy to work with. She even came to scout out the area before hand so we could get the best pictures! I couldn't recommend her enough. -The DeFelices

Cynthia is just absolutely amazing! I've seen her work for years and knew I wanted her to shoot out photos, so we had her for our engagement shoot this July. She was extremely friendly, warm, professional, and engaging. She made us feel comfortable and not awkward, and our photos came out so beautiful! Cynthia really is one of a kind and her photos are on a different level.

When planning for our big day, we had no doubt that we wanted Cynthia Chung Photography to be the photographer for our engagement and wedding. In fact, immediately after securing our venue, we contacted Cynthia with high hopes of her availability and thankfully she had an opening (whew)! We've both seen many of her beautifully artistic works before--the combination of her style, elegance and chic taste is simply beyond words - it tells a story. With Cynthia, you know you're in good hands. She makes you feel at ease and observes your personal traits as a couple. Cynthia has the astonishing talent and ability to create incredible shots with you and your SO as the subject with the steadfast foundation of her endless creativity at the helm. While there are increasingly amount of photographers with their distinct and unique styling shots, Cynthia remains, in our humble opinion, to be a master of her craft, capturing your everlasting memories that you will be proud to share with family, friends and future generations. Cynthia's down to earth yet utmost professional demeanor is her standard of capturing and procuring the best of the best. Thank you Cynthia for transposing our memories through photos!
