Fade To Black New York

oking for, they truly are passionate about their work and went out of their way to make sure we were happy with everything. Brian was always right near me at the reception, ready to snap away! I cannot day enough great things about them and their work!

k you cards, video - DVDs and trailer right away; we’re just waiting for the album and prints but have no doubt that they will be nothing short than amazing. Absolutely recommend them!

he date, to arriving early and staying late on our wedding day, to our thank you cards, to the album and printed pictures, we have nothing but amazing things to say about Gil and team. Pictures last a lifetime, so we made sure to do our research when choosing this important vendor. We met Gil at a wedding expo and stopped to chat with him because they had a drone. This drone provided such cool aerial photos of the ceremony, first look, and group shots. Every step of the way was painless. He is quick to respond to emails, and the team working with him are all talented artists. Thank you for photographing the best day of ours lives, and I hope other couples have as a great experience as we did!

ur videographer, was so easy to work with. Not only is he professional, he made the whole process so easy and stress free. He was always there to answers any questions I had in a prompt and timely manner. Jodi, our photographer, is so talented. Not only does she take amazing pictures, she is so upbeat and funny. She made our wedding day a blast. Anthony, who also took amazing photos at our wedding was an absolute pleasure to work with as well. Last minute we also decided to add a Photo Booth and Gil was so accommodating about it. We are so glad that we added it because they did such a great job! If you are looking for a photographer and videographer at a very reasonable price, look no further! Thank you! Nicole and Joe :)

ends then a Vendor. we were supposed to have just two photographers and one video guy at our wedding and the 4th guy ended up staying. We got our 1,600 pictures in two weeks and our video will be done by end of July ( over a month later ) and they upgraded our video for us ( for free ) they honestly didn't miss a thing!!! they gave us fun, traditional, sexy and crazy photos and we loved them all!

They have the bride and groom take the first picture and when we did the lighting was a little off in the hall so the picture was dark. While the maitre d fixed the lighting we went about the rest of our party and forgot about the picture. The photo booth was still up when the party was over and all the other the vendors were packed up because the guys wanted to make sure we got our bride and groom picture in the photo booth. I am so happy we went with Fade to Black!

with Gil (within the first 10 minutes of talking to him,) we knew we had our videographer. Then we met with Jodi, the photographer also from Fade to Black and it sealed the deal. Jodi, Gil and Anthony truly made our wedding day very special. They are so down to earth and so much fun to deal with. You seriously think you are dealing with family. We had a great time with them the wedding day and were very respectful of our space and didn't bother us once during our reception. Our guests even commented about how great they all were. We have seen a few of our pictures and they are GORGEOUS !!! We can't wait to see the video. You will have nothing to worry about if you book with Fade to Black NY. They will take care of everything and are very reasonable price wise. I promise you will not be disappointed.

eo far exceeded my expectations. I could not be happier with my choice of Fade to Black and I highly recommend them.

eo. Ladies and Gents, the final video that I received for my wedding, done by the owner Gil, fell short of anything that I could have ever imagined. There is no way to sugarcoat this message, the video was plain and simple the lowest point and the biggest disappointment of my wedding. I had such a bad experience with this company that I feel that other brides need to know so they won’t make the same mistake that I made by hiring them. The video started with a shot of the back of one of our guests picking up her name card. This shot in itself and having at the beginning of my wedding video is still a puzzle to me. Then, somehow, we were abruptly taken to the wedding ceremony where Gil managed to only film one side of the chapel. He stood on one side and mostly filmed only the side where my family members were sitting. There was very Iittle to no shots on my husband side of the family at the chapel. As if that was not bad enough, whenever he was moving the camera, we got a few nonsensical shots of the ceiling of the chapel. Then came the filming of the cocktail hour. I can’t criticize his work there because that part barely made it to the wedding video. During the cocktail hour, I was out being photographed with my husband and was hoping that my wedding video would provide me with a visual of the atmosphere of the cocktail hour. After the wedding, I asked Gil about the lack of shooting of the cocktail hour even though I specifically requested that he filmed the cocktail hour in previous emails. He nonchalantly told me that, IN GENERAL, guests do not like to be filmed when they are eating. To my knowledge, none of my guest reported having any issues with being filmed at a cocktail hour. But hey, I will never know what it was like at the cocktail since Gil decided and I quote again “in general guests don’t like to be filmed when they are eating”. Then, we moved to the reception section, what should have been the purest testimony of how much our guests enjoyed and appreciated the wedding. Again there, Mr. Gil was consistent in being the biggest disappointment of the wedding. The shots of the reception room before the guests arrived were all awkwardly paced together. They gave no impression of a rolling or a moving picture as the shots were jumping from one scene to the other. He barely went around the room to film those who were in attendance. Now as if all that I have previously described was not enough, to top it all, for no logical reason whatsoever, he stopped filming and abruptly cut the video 20 to 30 min before the end of my wedding. A few precious and priceless moment of my wedding including the electric slide and selected meaningful cultural songs were not part of the video. When I contacted him to express my disappointment, he was more offended than me. When I asked about not filming the end of my wedding including the electric slide, I got the most outrageous of all his multiple nonsensical excuses. I was bluntly reminded that I was making a big deal for a dance that has been out for about 20 yrs and that was no longer in style. The man was very disrespectful to me.In conclusion i never got a corrected video, he stopped answering my phone calls and all my emails.

appiness and fun of our wedding day! Thank you again!

ck in. Now, we are very picky people and for us to book someone on the spot like that is not normal for us. But, we felt so comfortable with him that we just didn’t want to waste our time. I saw his work and a lot of ladies here on LIW recommended him, so I felt good about it. I showed him a specific trailer that I liked and he was totally cool with adding it to the package. On the wedding day, he was great. Him and my photographer worked wonderful together. He is also a pretty laid back guy...and humorous.

s that his business is a repeat business. And the reels I have seen that he has done have been incredible.
