Duet Photography & Video

el so comfortable in front of the camera and captured every moment so naturally and beautifully. The photos feel authentic, emotional, and timeless—we’ll treasure them forever. I really couldn’t have asked for a better experience or a more perfect reflection of our day!

. My husband and I had plenty of questions, and they never hesitated to hop on a call to walk us through everything and put us at ease. From the very beginning, they made us feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera. Our photos and video came out absolutely amazing! People constantly tell us they look magical, like something straight out of a movie. Our biggest request was candid moments, and Duet captured them perfectly. We truly cannot recommend Duet Photography & Video enough!

dding pictures and videos, it was seamless. Working with Mike and Hanel made such a stressful process easy. When we first met Mike at our engagement shoot he immediately put all our worries at ease. It was such a fun shoot and the pictures came out absolutely stunning. I knew from the from looking at the first picture of our engagement shoot that we were in good hands and I couldn’t wait for the actual wedding. Hanel, Mike and Michelle were so professional and easy to work with the day of our wedding. Getting pulled in a million directions the day of your wedding is inevitable, but the duet team never put pressure on us and let us take as many breaks(which were many) that day without saying a word or disagreeing. When we received our wedding pictures and videos we were in awe. The day couldn’t have been captured better. They were things that we didn’t remember or didn’t see that they were able to capture and are so grateful for. If you’re thinking about booking Duet, don’t think, just do. You will not be disappointed. Thank you to a wonderful team for not only being amazing to work with but giving us years of memories we will cherish forever.

them in person, we were sold instantly. While their work speaks for itself, their professionalism, friendliness, and attention to detail really takes them to the next level.  As a true Type A person, I had my own timeline, schedule, and notes; and the team was so wonderful in working with me to make sure they were aligned and talk through any sort of confusion for a super smooth wedding day. The day of the wedding, they were absolutely amazing - start to finish. From moving the dining room table at my house for the perfect shot, to getting every single photo on my shot list, and making my husband and I feel comfortable. Truly, they were just so refreshing to work with.  Our photos and videos came out so beautiful and captured our personalities, our relationship, and our day absolutely perfectly. And since their work is truly so classic, I know we will look back on everything with the same fondness and love for all the years to come.

walk me through making a day of scheduling for how photos would be taken and how the day would run. They helped make the day run smooth and with less stress. My edited photos came back quicker than expected and looked so beautiful. I would recommend any one to use them for their wedding or any other photography needs.

Hanel and Rachel are the dream team and you won’t regret working with them on your big day!

work with. Hanel was super communicative, and so helpful with planning our shot list and day-of timeline for pictures. Kevin and Rachel went above and beyond the day of to make sure every special moment was captured. Their attention to detail is unmatched and they were so kind and accommodating with our wedding party and guests! The quantity and quality of our gallery was absolutely amazing (can’t stress this enough!) and we loved all the candid shots they were able to capture of us and all of our loved ones! We cannot thank them enough for making our day so special!! 

mpletely blown away. On the day of the wedding, Hanel and his team were professional, friendly, and so easy to be around. They made us feel comfortable right away, which was huge for us since my husband and I aren’t big on taking photos. They guided us through posing in a way that felt natural and effortless. When we received our photos and video, we were blown away. Everything was absolutely stunning and captured the day so perfectly—every emotion, every detail. We’re beyond grateful to have these beautiful memories to look back on for years to come and can’t recommend Duet enough.

ld be there to help us through the process with ease. On our wedding day, the team was incredible and made us feel so comfortable and natural, even though my husband and I don’t love being photographed. Our photos and videos came back quickly, and the final gallery was stunning and captured every moment of the day beautifully.  They were able to capture little moments throughout the day that we will cherish forever. We’re so grateful and couldn’t recommend them more!

comfortable in front of the camera and captured every special moment so naturally. The photos and video truly exceeded our expectations — every emotion, detail, and candid moment was beautifully preserved. Watching our video felt like reliving the entire day all over again. They blended in seamlessly with our guests while still capturing everything we could’ve hoped for. If you’re looking for a photographer and videographer who are talented, reliable, and genuinely care about your memories, Duet is the best choice. We are so grateful to have these memories forever.

ns right away. Mike worked with us on our engagement shoot and at the wedding. 10/10 best decision we made working with them! 

out 26 guests. We were having a hard time finding a studio that would want to shoot for such a small event when I happened upon Duet’s studio from their amazing reviews. Hanel was such a pleasure to speak with- we had a couple of meetings before the big day. Even though we were a smaller event, we truly felt taken care of by Hanel and that we were in good hands. He took the time to schedule a few conference calls to make sure all of my questions were answered, and always promptly answered any questions I had by email. Our photographer for the day, Kevin, was absolutely OUTSTANDING!!! From the moment he rang my parents doorbell at 12:30, until he sadly departed us at 5:30, we were all so impressed by Kevin’s attention to detail, making sure he got all of the shots we wanted, all while keeping us on schedule for the next part of the day. The pictures came out even more beautiful than I could ever hope for! Thank you so much to Hanel and Kevin, for giving us the gift of beautiful photos and memories that we will look back on for a lifetime!

very moment was captured more beautifully than I ever expected! Forever grateful for the memories they were able to capture of our family and friends that we will have for the rest of our lives! Thank you so so much!

and super friendly! Mike was our lead photographer and he was incredible. He shot our engagement session, rehearsal dinner, and our wedding so we had the opportunity to get comfortable with him. Our video team was also amazing. My husband and I both mentioned that we barely noticed them the entire night and they had captured everything flawlessly! Reliving our day through the photos and videos has been so great. Thanks, Duet for being so wonderful!

immediately felt comfortable and excited to share our vision for our wedding. Throughout the entire year of planning, Hanel and his team were so receptive and helpful in accommodating anything we needed to make sure our vision came to life! After our engagement session with Mike, we knew we were in the best of hands for our wedding. On our wedding day, there was a bad storm but Mike, Michael and Michelle did not let that get in the way of capturing our celebration. They were on their A game and present at every single moment and found creative ways to get beautiful shots. Throughout the wedding, they came up to us to make sure that we were getting the photos that we discussed were must haves. They know how caught up in the excitement a bride and groom can get, so it was nice to know they were on top of the pictures we wanted. After getting our full gallery back, we were reminded again how happy we are that we chose Duet. They managed to stay invisible while still capturing every single magical moment. These photos are vibrant and full of life and love. We gave them liberty to be creative with our wedding video and it came out even more beautiful than we could have ever imagined! My husband and I were over the moon to be able to relive the most incredible day of our lives through our photos and videos. If you want a wedding photographer who treats you like family and has an incredible eye for capturing every magical moment, you have to choose Duet!!

utstanding. He helped prepare a timeline for us and offered many helpful recommendations throughout the wedding planning process. On the day of the wedding, we had Mike (primary photographer), Michelle (second photographer), and Mike (Videographer) from the Duet team. They were very professional, organized, friendly, and patient with our wedding party (especially with our family when taking family portraits). Our bridal party and family were raving about the team and how kind everyone was even days after the wedding. Shoutout to Michelle who saw me struggling with my wedding dress and bouquet and helped me out when my day-of-coordinator was no where to be found! We also added on a Photo Booth through Duet and it was a big hit! We received all digital images taken from the Photo Booth in about 2 weeks and all our final wedding photos in about 2 months which is an amazing turnaround! We absolutely love all of our photos and can’t wait to see our films once they’re ready! Thank you Duet team!

ed for! Mike got all of my detail shots exactly how I wanted them. They were super organized and quick with getting our large bridal party and individual shots. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for wedding photography and videography. Thank you Duet!!

nt shoot with Mike in NYC's Central Park in May '25. We also opted to have Duet run a photo booth at our wedding (recommend!). We were so lucky to work with Duet for a number of reasons: Communication - from the get-go, it was incredibly easy to work with Duet. Hanel is so on top of things and we were never waiting for an answer, in fact he was most often proactively reminding us of things and helping us think through things like day-of timing. If you haven't yet planned your wedding, responsiveness and trustworthiness in a vendor are huge pros. The photography itself - we consistently love the shots Duet has taken of us and our loved ones. I don't know much about photography, but we love the style, framing, and whatever finishing touches they use. Photos feel highly professional without crossing over into over-touched or too artsy. My wife and I were worried about where we would take photos on the day-of, to the point we were touring around near the venue and greater Brooklyn to find scenic spots. In the end, it rained for much of our wedding day, and we didn't have time to detour anyway - no problem, of course, because Mike and Paul made very ordinary backgrounds look wonderful with their photo magic, and were creative with shooting indoors and under umbrellas to make sure we still got a great first look and pre-wedding shots. Comfortability - we were really comfortable working with Mike. As mentioned, we did a post-engagement shoot in the park, more so to gain familiarity with Mike than for the pictures themselves (though they turned out great!). My wife and I are low key and I know I commonly feel uncomfortable having my photo taken. This was not an issue at all with Duet. Mike knew how to match our vibe and was never pushy - this was huge. Conservative approach - I don't fully understand the mechanics behind it, but my understanding is that Duet backs up every photo they take as it's taken so that there is an extra copy in case of emergency. They also do a lot of self-lighting for shots, which meant that while our venue of course mattered, and looked great anyway, they could have really made anything look nice with their lighting work. Pricing / value - while not the most important consideration, we felt Duet delivered a ton of value at a very reasonable price. Getting married in NYC is never going to be cheap, but we feel like we got the absolute best value for our money.

he was incredibly kind and responsive. Pricing was fair and transparent, and we appreciated meeting with Hanel to learn more about their approach to videography and set expectations. On the day of the wedding, we could tell that our videographer Adam was extremely detail-oriented and he was super friendly and professional. He allowed us to fully enjoy our day, not pulling us away for too many “manufactured” moments and instead perfectly capturing authenticity. We are absolutely delighted with the films we received back, especially of the cocktail hour which includes stunning shots of the venue and many, many guest interviews. We are so impressed with how much Adam was able to capture in a short amount of time! We truly appreciate how hard he worked and it has paid off as we have already enjoyed watching the films many times with family and friends who have nothing but positive things to say. We will cherish these films forever. Thank you to Hanel, Adam, and the rest of the Duet team – one of the best vendors we worked with on our special day!

and answered any questions I had in a promptly manner. The day of, Mike, Hanel and the rest of the team were so professional and supportive . My bridal party and family also raved how amazing they were. We are loving our wedding pictures and videos and love how they truly captured the magic of our special day. We are so happy we went with them. Thank you Duet !

not pushy, professional, patient, and was so kind from the first email to final asset delivery. On our wedding day, Mike showed up on time and with such a calm demeanor, which is what everyone needs on a day filled with such high energy and emotions. He provides great direction to people who aren’t comfortable in front of the camera, has a strong vision, and worked really well with our photography team. As a bride and groom, you miss a lot of the day but Mike captured everything perfectly and with such balance. It’s been a true joy watching our videos back to relive the day.

ecause everything was handled seamlessly, and any time I had a question, I got a quick and reassuring response. Our wedding day went smoother than I could have ever imagined. They took care of everything and made sure every detail that mattered to me was captured, all without me having to stress. My guests were so impressed—they didn’t even notice the photographers or videographers, whereas at other weddings they’ve been distracted by cameras getting in the way of dancing, speeches, or just enjoying the moment. We couldn’t be more thrilled with our photos and video. Every image and clip is thoughtful, beautiful, and so meaningful. They were helpful and attentive down to the last detail. I’ll be recommending them to everyone I know!

recommend.

. I am not an artsy person and often feel awkward having my picture taken. I was instantly drawn to their natural approach to capturing special moments. Mike and Liza were the photographers the day of the wedding. They were very professional and chill during the whole day. Which I exactly what I needed on a hectic/chaotic wedding day. They went with the flow throughout the whole day. The photos are INCREDIBLY beautiful. They’re bright and were just what I was looking for. I also love the candid moments they captured. The photos captured everyone’s pure joy. I am so grateful that I found Duet Photography, and would recommend them to any future bride! 1000/10 recommend. 

were incredibly accommodating throughout the planning process. On the day of the wedding, they showed up on time and got straight to work, making my day easy. The quality of their work was absolute perfection - their attention to detail and creative approach captured all the special moments beautifully. Duet went above and beyond to make my wedding Pinterest vision a reality. I am thrilled with the end result and would highly recommend their services to any couple looking for clean, timeless pictures. I can’t wait to hang my pictures up! 

with all our requests. Michelle was our second photographer and was so sweet and worked well on focusing my husband and groomsmen during their photos. A friend of mine recommended Duet when he got married at Watermill and I am so glad we met with them and booked on the spot. They made us comfortable and we loved the look of all the photos they showed us. The day of they were so easy to work with, directed us with all photos and sent us previews not even 2 weeks later. We're obsessed with our photos so far and can't wait to see the rest. Would highly recommend Duet Photography to anyone.

ey are the most beautiful wedding photos. 

they were so easy to work with and knew all of the best spots for pictures at our venue. They captured all of the moments we wanted and more. We got preview pictures while we were still on our honeymoon which were all absolutely perfect, and we were blown away by the full gallery. The pictures were way better than I could have ever hoped for. We also got a highlight video as well as reception and ceremony videos which were so perfectly done. There are genuinely so many amazing photos that we're having trouble picking which ones to frame for our home (our families feel the same way too!). Unfortunately, I'm having trouble uploading pictures to this review but take my word that they're amazing! We both highly recommend booking with them, if you're thinking about it just do it - you will not be disappointed!!

special moment perfectly, from the big emotional shots to the little candid details that truly tell our story. The lighting, composition, and attention to detail were flawless, and we were blown away by how natural and beautiful everyone looked. Our photos feel timeless, and we’ll treasure them forever. Thank you Duet😊 for going above and beyond to make our day unforgettable. We can’t recommend you enough!

a, which really shows in how natural and beautiful our photos turned out. Every single moment was captured perfectly - even the little ones we didn’t realize were happening in the moment! The photobooth was a total hit with our guests. Everyone kept raving about how it was the best photobooth they had ever used - the photos were crystal clear and looked like professional portraits. Our wedding portraits truly captured the emotions and energy of the day, and our wedding video was beyond anything we could have hoped for. Watching it felt like reliving our wedding all over again — every big and small moment was documented so beautifully. We are so grateful for the incredible work and professionalism of Duet Photography and Videography. We can’t recommend them enough!

ce, flexibility, and professionalism. They made the entire day feel effortless and ensured we never had to worry about a thing. The photos are truly STUNNING — every image perfectly captures the emotion, laughter, and love of the day. The videos are equally incredible, overflowing with joy and so beautifully put together that we can’t stop watching them. I would use and recommend Hanel and Duet Photography a trillion times over. They exceeded every expectation and gave us memories we’ll cherish for the rest of our lives!!

oughout the entire process. On our wedding day, we had two photographers and two videographers, with Mike as our main photographer, and they were all phenomenal. Every single person on the team was so professional, friendly, and made us feel completely at ease. All of our guests commented on how sweet and hardworking the photo and video team was, and it truly showed in the final results. Our engagement shoot and wedding photos both came out incredible, beyond anything we could’ve hoped for. We are over the moon with how beautifully everything was captured and how seamless the whole experience was. We would recommend Duet Photo and Video over and over again to anyone looking for a talented, reliable, and genuinely kind team to document their big day. Thank you for giving us memories we’ll cherish forever! 💕

dding day. I knew our photos would come out great even before seeing them! They were able to quickly navigate changes with weather, etc and I’m just so stunned at how our photos came out. Our trailer and videos are stunning as well.

al from the very first touch point, to our wedding day and beyond. Their photojournalistic style is exactly what drew us to them, as we felt the candid shots really allowed the love and joy that was in the room with us that day to shine through! They took all of our preferences into consideration and made sure we had the absolute best experience - we were able to get all of our special photos and videos, while still prioritizing spending the day with all of the people we love, and weren’t pulled for posed photos every few minutes, which was important to us. The entire team was truly on point throughout the day, and captured our special moments perfectly! I was especially impressed that they were able to get so many photos and videos of our guests enjoying the dance floor, while not feeling like they were being followed by a camera all night - they were impressively stealth, and provided such a great experience for us all. I cannot thank Duet enough for perfectly capturing our day, and would recommend them to anyone looking for a fabulous photo/video team for their event. THANK YOU DUET!!
