Hiring Mackey Photo & Video will always be one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! The owner, Pete, organized everything FLAWLESSLY from the start! The incredible team h...
e put together for us was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING to work with! Shout out to Michael Brown, Ed Nishimura, Robert DeChirico, and Marty Rojo! They truly brought THE PERFECT energy and completely went with the flow when we had to make some last minute and RIGHT NOW changes because of the rain.
Mackey's team made the entire day so fun for us and made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. The photos and videos turned out absolutely breathtaking, capturing every raw emotion and detail perfectly! We will treasure these memories forever and ever! We absolutely cannot recommend Mackey and his remarkable crew enough!
We looooooved the team at Mackey Photo as we worked with them for our wedding photography at the Shawnee Inn & Golf Resort on 7/10/26. We had two associate photographers with us th...
roughout our day, and multiple guests complimented them highly throughout the night! One of the highlights of our night was breaking away from our reception with our photographers to take some sunset shots. It was a breath of fresh air that we didn't know we needed! Overall, we highly recommend Mackey Photo & Video to anyone getting married in the Pocono area and beyond!
I am honestly not sure where to start. From the second I met Peter, I knew he was a cool dude, and things just clicked. He took my vision, made sure he knew what my husband and I w...
anted, and then sent Party Marty, the coolest videographer there is, as the perfect person to capture our special day. The communication was great, the end result was a product of that communication, and we could not be happier we went with Mackey Photo & Video.
We are so grateful we found Pete Mackey Video. When we first spoke with Pete, we shared that we weren’t sure we even wanted wedding video because so much of what we saw online felt...
staged and performative. What we wanted was something real, laughter, emotion, connection, and energy. Pete’s work immediately showed us that his team captures weddings as they actually feel, not as productions.
From the preview footage alone, Marty and Fabio clearly captured something extraordinary. They worked seamlessly alongside our photographers, Sarah and Ryan, moving as a cohesive unit and creating space for natural moments to unfold. Everyone felt relaxed, comfortable, and genuinely themselves, which made the footage feel authentic and joyful.
We also loved how engaged Marty and Fabio were with our guests. They weren’t standing on the sidelines, they were in the mix, laughing, connecting, and capturing the essence of the day as it happened. That approach mattered so much to us, and we’re incredibly excited to relive everything through the final films and confessional videos.
If you’re on the fence about wedding videography, Pete Mackey Video will change your mind in the best possible way.
Absolutely AMAZING job done by this team! They pictured the magic of our day so beautifully and made it so comfortable posing for photos, especially when it was very windy outside!...
We highly recommend working with them! :)
The best! You can feel the emotion in the photos, if you are debating the videography package just do it! I regret not getting it, our day was so beautifully captured. And Pete was...
the easiest to work with, the team completely captured my vision in every photo. The vibes were amazing alll around. 100000% book Mackey you won’t regret it!
We had the absolute best experience working with Pete and his team! You can really tell they love what they do. From the discovery call all the way through receiving our photos, Pe...
te personally made sure we were happy and comfortable with the entire process. We worked with Alyssa on our wedding day and WOW...she did an amazing job! She knew exactly where to go, she had a whole pinterest board of ideas saved for us, and she made sure we had fun from start to finish. I've never seen someone smile so much while working SO hard. She captured everything we asked for and more. My husband and I are so grateful to Pete and Alyssa for capturing our favorite day just as beautifully as we remember it. We'll cherish these photos and memories forever. <3
Absolutely wonderful experience from beginning to end. Peter and his team are absolutely amazing!! I have only seen the previews of our photos so far and I have already cried looki...
ng at them. Laura and Robert were our photographers of the day and we couldn't have been happier. Not only are they the sweetest people you will meet, but they knew how to make everyone feel comfortable, focused, and full of energy. The photos they took are more beautiful than we could have imagined. We are truly lost for words and cannot express or emphasize enough just how happy we are with our choice to book Mackey Photo & Video for our special day. They are worth every single penny!! Truly just the friendliest, professional, and amazing people to have around you and work with. Thank you Peter, Laura, and Robert so so soooo much!!
Exceptional would be an understatement. Working with Mackey Photo & Video was an incredible experience from start to end. They went above and beyond to get to know us as a couple a...
long with our vision for the day. Working with our team on the day of was an absolute blast, we felt relaxed and at ease and like we could just be ourselves. The final product was beyond what we expected or could have asked for. If you’re looking for someone to not only capture your day, but you as a couple, your family and friends and all of the special moments, then Mackey is the one for you. Thank you again to everyone we worked with wish we could do it all again!!
It's been so hard to write this review because it's hard to put into words what's it's like to work with Pete and his team. They are the most incredible, most passionate and profe...
ssional team you will ever experience. Not to mention they are hilarious, and you can tell they have the best time together. They have fun while they work !
I want to throw another wedding just to see what they'll do !!
The power went out during our reception and the DJs photobooth didn't work so they jumped in and took photos of our guests until it was up and running again. Not only will you feel comfortable around them all but they will feel like family, like part of the party! And the photos ...are breathtaking. And the video brings tears to my eyes. Every.single.time.
Every detail was handled and taken care of, even though it rained and we had to do portraits inside and pivot from our plans. They handled it all with grace. They handled it all when I was a nervous Bride who had to rearrange it all in the fly.
I also couldn't throw any idea at Pete that he wasn't okay with - When I asked Pete to come with us to Knoebels to take our engagement photos, he said...sure sounds fun!
And remember at the end of the day, after your Wedding, all you'll have left is your photos (and or video) so make sure you hire the best. And Mackey Photo is the Best.
Can't wait to use them again to capture our future family memories!
Contracting Peter and his crew was a no brainer in my eyes. Working with this team was so much fun from Day 1 introductions to Engagement Shoot to Wedding Day; they don't just wan...
t to shoot but they want to immerse themselves amongst the crowd and be apart of the festivities. The work his team puts out is unreal! I am so excited to see the rest of the photos and video from the wedding day. Do not hesitate to get Peter and his team onboard for your wedding day.
I cannot recommend Pete and his team enough! We used him for our photography and videography. We had a team of 4 and they were all amazing. They made us feel comfortable in front o...
f the cameras and I know without a doubt they captured our day perfectly and I haven’t seen the pictures yet! I’m so glad pete was there to capture our day. You will not regret booking Mackey photo for your wedding. Everyone on his team is so talented. The pricing structure is perfect for all budgets.
My husband and I can't stop talking about how awesome our wedding photographers, Austin and Heather, were. Our friends and family loved the energy and genuine kindness throughout t...
he day. Pete Mackey’s team truly made us all feel like we were friends just taking pictures of each other and we couldn't have asked for anything more. Working with Pete throughout the planning process was fantastic. He is quick to respond and truly, truly cares about you. We also did our engagement shoot with Austin, and he was amazing. So friendly and professional. Gets allll the angles. Not to mention every single photo came out incredible for both our engagement and wedding. We are beyond happy to have worked with Mackey Photo.
Peter and his team are the best!!! They made our wedding memorable, and the photos are amazing so far. Peter and his team made us feel like family. During every meeting with Peter,...
he would remember everything happening in our lives. We were in the middle of moving to New Jersey from Kentucky, and he made sure to check up on us. He kept us informed the entire time with information. He is a great photographer, videographer, and caring person!! I highly recommend to anyone needing photos or video done!!
We had Evelina as our photographer and she was amazing! I have always felt awkward when taking portraits and photos but she was great at making my partner and I feel comfortable an...
d it really shows in the photos! The photos themselves came out amazing and all of the guests commented on how great everyone looked in them after I sent them out.
Working with Pete and his team for our wedding was an absolute dream. From the very first Zoom call to saying goodbye at our reception, every encounter with him was wonderful. He h...
elped with our timeline planning, how to organize our complicated family photos, and made everyone feel like a rock star on the day. We had multiple guests tell us how much they loved him and our sneak peek photos are just insane. We'd recommend Pete and his team to anyone, absolutely best vendor!
Pete and his team are amazing. He is so easy to work with and truly listened to what me and my husband wanted. He is so incredibly talented and our pictures turned out beautifully.
Pete is so professional yet so personable. As soon as we met, we knew that he needed to be our photographer/videographer. We became friends instantly and it made the experience all...
the better. Our wedding ceremony video was literal perfection. We literally cried when viewing the photos. We are super grateful for how everything turned out.
Pete (and his team) were absolutely amazing!!! From the very first phone call, we knew that Pete “was the one”! His infectious personality was perfect for us as we can be on the qu...
ieter side. He was able to easily break us out of our shells and because of that we always had so much fun and our pictures looked 100% natural. Pete and his team are professionals through and through. They never miss a thing! We had so many of our guests comment that every time they turned around, someone was there to take their picture (and that’s exactly what you want on your wedding day!). There were so many moments that Pete and his team were able to capture for us at our wedding that we would have missed otherwise. We are so grateful that we chose Pete Mackey as our wedding photographer! The day wouldn’t have been the same without him!!!
Peter is truly top notch. We worked with him for our engagement, small wedding at our home, and actual ceremony. He’s incredibly personable and funny which makes working with him s...
uch a blast. He captures some amazing shots and his edits really bring things to life. He did a great same day video for us as well. Definitely recommend the photo albums he offers as well. The quality of the prints and the book itself are great. His supporting staff are also pleasant to work with and do a fantastic job. I highly recommend Peter’s services.
We loved working with Pete on our engagement photos, wedding photos, and designing and printing our wedding album! He kept the environment light and fun every step of the way and h...
elped two photo-averse brides feel comfortable. His second photographer and his videographer were absolutely wonderful too! We plan to use Pete for all major events moving forward and highly, highly recommend him both for his great personality and his incredible talent!
Pete is the best videographer and he is so talented. My husband and I love our wedding video, he made for us. We highly recommend his for any of wedding! 🙂
Pete was amazing to work with! I’m not someone who enjoys having their picture taken and he made myself and my husband feel super comfortable. I also wasn’t someone with too much a...
vision and Pete was amazing at interpreting the vibe and giving us photos that are a literal dream. Cannot recommend enough!
We found Mackey Photo & Video through our venue and were so happy with Pete every step of the way! He was very upfront and honest from the beginning - his packages were very clear ...
and easy to pick which fit our needs best.
My husband and I don't really love having our photos taken, so when we met with Pete for our engagement shoot in Princeton, NJ we were a bit nervous that we were going to look silly. Pete made the entire photoshoot process so smooth and we felt like we were instantly friends with him! He has a talent for making people feel comfortable. The photos came out great!
For the wedding, we worked with Pete's associates Danny & Roger. They were very professional and we love our photos. Honestly, we barely noticed they were there - which I think is a good thing! They got great photos of every guest as well as some really awesome candids of us.
The process of creating our book and ordering a large canvas with Pete was also very relaxed and streamlined. The quality of our wedding book is amazing. Overall, we couldn't be happier and would 10/10 recommend Pete and his team! Book early!
Pete was not only such a talented videographer, but he was so fun, friendly, energetic, and enthusiastic! He was the "background" life of the party and not only did we love him, bu...
t so did our guests! Our wedding video was everything we could have ever dreamed of. Pete so perfectly captured the most important details and put it into something we will never forget. I could not recommend Pete more for videography for a wedding or event. Truly a magical day that was put into an 8-minute piece of perfection!
Pete is an amazing person and photographer! We were drawn to his photography for the quality, and the beautiful candid shots he captures. He's truly talented, and after getting to ...
chat with him we also quickly realized he's an awesome person.
Having Pete photograph our wedding was like having a friend there celebrating the day with us, being our cheerleader. He is so great at helping you (and groups) pose and making everyone feel at ease. He loves his job and it shows in his work.
We were so happy with our photos and all our guests raved about Pete. The mother of the groom named Pete "the best wedding guest". Thank you Pete!
When searching for a photographer and videographer I saw Petes work and just fell in love. Then my now husband and I met with him and hes just such an easy going guy and so much fu...
n that there was no question or not of if we wanted to hire him. Pete and Mike made our wedding day so fun and all our guests said how great they were and how they were all over the dance floor getting all the shots! I definitely recommend them for any occasion and would give them a million stars if I could!
It’s taken me a few months to write this review, mostly because I wasn’t sure if I’d ever be able to do Pete and his crew justice in just one short paragraph. Working with Pete was...
by far one of the best parts of our wedding planning. When we started looking for photographers/videographers, we had about 4 introduction phone calls, and after our call with Pete, he made the decision super easy for both of us. Photography and videography skills aside, Pete is an awesome human, and his personality quite honestly was a huge selling point for us, too. If you’re not used to it, getting photos taken of you can feel daunting, but during our engagement shoot, he made it feel as natural as possible. In my opinion, that goes such a long way. It was also the perfect prep for our wedding day. Our wedding was a full weekend of camping, and when we asked Pete if he could truly be there ALL day Saturday to capture the activities around camp, even before getting ready, he didn’t hesitate. We all weren’t prepared for the monsoon that would forever become the butt of all of our wedding weekend jokes, but the team showed up bright and early and ready to go. Despite the buckets of rain that never let up, Pete, Marty, Evelína, and Mike captured our day in the best way possible. This was evidenced by every single photo and video from our wedding day.
Pete’s work is truly an art. His creativity and attention to detail are remarkable. He will shoot every beautiful moment of your day, and he’ll do it at ANY cost (like sacrificing his safety to climb freshly wet rocks for the best angle). I would be totally remiss if I didn’t mention Pete’s enthusiasm and energy, because those are the things that EVERYONE at our wedding commented on. “WHO was your photographer?!” He kept everyone on the dance floor, he coordinated the sparkler send-off, he did a million things outside of his line of duty. Pete truly gives his all. He did for us, and I know he will for you, too. <3
Could not recommend enough!!!!!
We used Pete for both our engagement and our wedding photos and we could not be happier! All our guests could not get enough of his amazing attitud...
e. He will find the most amazing and most creative spots to take your pictures. He is always willing to be flexible with meetings and times. Absolutely in love with all our photos thanks to Pete!
Pete is awesome from the first time you sit down with him to the moment you get you wedding album. He's with you every step of the way and captures all the shots you didn't know we...
're happening. My husband and I hate having pictures taken of us and Pete made it an amazing experience.
Ah, Pete Mackey. Anyone would be so incredibly lucky to have him as the photographer and videographer at their wedding, AS WELL as his ENTIRE TEAM. Pete is not only an artist, a ma...
ster at what he does, but he's also just a really great person, so kind, and filled to the brim with endless ideas and a joke or two. He takes the time to get to know the couple firsthand, well before the camera starts clicking. My now husband and I felt like we knew him for years after leaving his studio the night we all met, and even a whole year after we hired him, it was as if not a day went by. He remembered everything we spoke about, everything we wanted in the wedding down to the last detail. He was a great source of stress relief the day of the wedding, continuing to provide laughs and smiles, all while taking beautiful pictures and video. My friends and family all immediately loved Pete, saying how it was so great to see the photographer actually enjoying HIMSELF at the wedding. (I come from a family who dances hard at every celebration and Pete was right there with us, dancing, all while taking and producing beautiful pictures....) I will also say that everyone Pete brought with him that day were all wonderful and SO talented themselves, my gosh, what a great team! Peter Mackey and his crew are absolutely the photographers and videographers you want at your wedding.
Our experience with Mackey Photography was exceptional. Pete is extremely creative, professional, and accommodating. He has amazing energy and captured the true spirit of our event...
. The finished video and album were stunning. A real gem.
100% recommend!!
Pete Mackey and his crew did our engagement shoot and wedding shoot in May of 2022. Pete lets the couple be themselves to capture real special moments but also has the type of pers...
onality where he livens the whole atmosphere, making for a positive shoot environment. His pictures are very detailed and he puts a lot of effort into his work. Highly Recommend.
First phone call I had with him was amazing. He is so friendly and so easy to talk to with any questions or concerns you might have! Very professional and just a great personality!...
Takes the most BEAUTIFUL photos! He creates such detail in his head of what he wants to scene to look like in all his photos. Sets him apart with his skills and the art of capturing the perfect photo even on a cloudy day. Taking the photos at our wedding he was marvelous. Everyone raved about him. He took photos we didn’t even know about! He was capturing every moment in our wedding we didn’t get to see when we were busy dancing ourselves. I would give him a 10 out of 10 stars. If you want amazing beautiful photos to last a life time then you need to book him for your wedding or any other memories you want captured in your life. Even after the wedding doing the photo session was great! He made a slide show of what our photo album would look like! He took his time to place every photo in the perfect page of the book. He takes such pride in his work and it shows! Go book him!
Okay first of all, we were so last minute with everything just because of everything going on in our lives. Pete was AMAZING, accommodating, spectacular. From the moment I saw his ...
work I KNEW I wanted him and no one else. Our pictures are amazing, like they belong in a high class magazine. And our video??? I’ve watched it well over 20 times since he gave it to me. He caught every single moment I wanted him to catch. I am a very candid person, I don’t like pictures that are staged and he made sure not only to give me beautiful portraits but amazing candid shots. I loved having him there he was like a guest I invited and super fun. He knew right where to take us for the perfect photos and didn’t waste our time at our wedding taking pictures, which is another thing I loved. I wanted to have fun at my wedding and not waste time with photos. Every little aspect of my wedding I have photographed. The amount of pictures you get you won’t get through in one day. I wouldn’t change anything that he did at all. There is no one better than him. I wish I could put into words how happy he has made me. My wedding was the best day of my life and with his pictures and videos he worked so hard on I feel like I can relive it every time I look at them. Worth the money 100 times over. If you want Pete Mackey, THEN GET HIM. You won’t ever be disappointed.
An ABSOLUTE gem is Mr. Peter Mackey! From start to finish he always goes the extra mile to personalize our experience. We're talking he got in the water to shoot our engagement sh...
oot in his clothes to make sure we got the exact shot for our wedding cards! Punctual, creative and a ball of fun your guests are going to love. He was likely the most popular guy at the wedding outside the couple getting married. An A+ - would recommend him to anyone getting married in his area and you're missing out if you don't go with Pete. He's the best!
I can't sing the praises of Mackey Photo enough. Our photographer Evelina, and the editor, Pete, did such a remarkable job. Evelina was the sweetest ever, making our poses seemless...
and fun. She got amazing photos, and obviously is passionate about her job. And possibly she may be part ninja because she got some brilliant shots without us even noticing. And Pete, who is always upbeat and positive not only gets you excited for the photos before hand, but when you do get the pictures you're astounded. I wish I could screen record the comments I have received about these pictures thus far, as everyone is raving about the quality, the skill, and how perfectly natural it all looks. If you're looking for a photographer, look NO further and reach out right away. 10/10 would DEFINITELY recommend.
Peter did an awesome job with our photos. He organized our portraits and family photos seamlessly after the ceremony and got everyone into the perfect position. During the ceremony...
and reception, he wasn't intrusive at all and caught some great candid photos! Would highly recommend Mackey Photo.
My son got married in August and I got the recommendation for Peter from Jacks Barn. Peter was wonderful. He was punctual and polite. He took the photos with discreetness and p...
rofessionalism.
We recently received the photos and they
were everything we hoped they would be. Absolutely gorgeous. I would recommend Peter without hesitation.
Peter Mackey is absolutely fabulous! His work is amazing and he really takes time to get to know his clients well and really feels like a friend by the time your wedding rolls arou...
nd. He is so lively and enthusiastic, his energy is unmatched. It’s not often that guests give compliments on photographers at the end of a wedding, but we got more compliments on how amazing Peter was than any other aspect of our wedding! Not only did he capture some really magical moments, but he added to the fun of our wedding day. Definitely hire Peter for your special day, you will not be disappointed!
When we were looking for a photographer the one thing we knew we didn’t want was someone that could only pull off traditional. Pete has no problem climbing on a ladder, being eaten...
by a bush or laying on the ground for that perfect shot. He shows you some of the pictures as he is going to ensure that you are getting the shots you want.
Pete is very friendly and has no problem with working with young children all the way to feisty adults.
Pete honestly blew us away with the video he put together! It was such a beautiful and emotional day, so watching it for the first time took me back to those moments. He did a wond...
erful job telling our story through film! Additionally, Pete was a pleasure to work with on the day of the wedding. His upbeat personality was contagious and everyone only had good things to say about him. I'm usually awkward in front of the camera, but Pete made me feel comfortable and captured our wedding perfectly! Even my husband thought he did a fantastic job and that says a lot :) We highly recommend Pete as a videographer.
Finding the perfect wedding photographer is difficult, but let me encourage to end your search here. Pete has such a great sense of humor but is also friendly, courteous and simply...
amazing!! Our pictures are something we will love forever, his ability to work with the setting and lighting to create a breathtaking image is astounding to me. He is great at creating the perfect images to fit your unique style and personality while effortlessly dealing with family and friends. He was worth every single penny we spent, highly recommended.
Where do we even begin?! I cannot even express how grateful my husband and I are for Pete. From our first conversation together, we knew that he was the perfect photographer for u...
s! He was so warm, personable, and we felt like we knew him for years! From just browsing his portfolio, I could tell how passionate he was about his work. And I knew we needed to book him right away! Pete truly is one of a kind and is so incredibly talented, it’s insane. His eye for perfection from finding the best light, the most amazing scenery, and precise attention to detail, are some of the many aspects that set him apart from other photographers. To top it all off, he is so accommodating and supportive. Just like many other 2020 weddings, we had to come to the decision to postpone our big wedding celebration until May 2021. However, my husband and I still wanted to get married so we had a small, intimate ceremony October 2nd. Pete was so supportive throughout this difficult decision and offered so much support and words of encouragement. We still had him capture our beautiful day and we could not have been more happier. He made sure to take shots of each and every moment . The turnaround time for the photos was so quick! My husband and I were absolutely in love with all of the pictures he took from our special day. I was just in awe of how beautiful they all came out! We truly cannot thank you enough Pete! We cannot wait to work with you again in May to create more amazing shots! Honestly guys, do not look any further for your wedding photographer. Pete is the one!!! You will not be disappointed!
Pete is not only talented, timely, responsive, reasonable - he’s also funny, adventurous and detail-oriented! I hired Pete for my last minute elopement in the Poconos. He had us al...
l over the venue’s grounds, including going down into a fern gully! The photos turned out amazing and the best part - we got all the perfectly retouched and edited (100+) within 24 hours. Plus he’s a really great dude and was super easy to work with. So glad I found Pete - thanks again!
Having Mackey Photo do our photography for our wedding was by far the best choice we made when it came to narrowing down our options. Peter was absolutely amazing, quick with respo...
nding to us and quick with answering any questions we had. He worked with us through the whole thing. We had Roger as our actual photographer for our ceremony and he was wonderful! He really knew what moments to capture and from what angles. Everyone that I show the photos to say you had an amazing photographer and he knew what he was doing! We received our photos a lot quicker then we expected and they were all wonderful! When we need photos done again we will be contacting Mackey Photo!!!
Dude is AWESOME! But really, Pete is incredibly talented and definitely where he belongs. The first time we met Pete, we went up to his studio, sat down on a comfy couch and he tal...
ked to me and my fiancé like we were friends catching up. He asked us how we met and what we like to do for fun. His excitement and genuine personality let us know right away that we wanted him to video our wedding. He has great attention to detail and is willing to go the extra mile. On the day of the wedding, one of our groomsmen said to Pete, “DUDE, I am LOVING your energy!”. That explains how we all felt about him. He even offered some advice to the bride and groom, making us feel more comfortable before we stepped out and got married. Pete helped make our wedding a great experience and we are excited to see our wedding video from his point of view.
My husband and I couldn't have asked for anyone better and we are so happy that we found Pete! His personality, his enthusiasm...his work! Pete is absolutely amazing. You can tell...
that someone truly enjoys their craft when they take the time to get to know the couple on the other side of the lens. Our family and friends still talk about him because he interacted with them too! Pete really has a creative eye, and it shows in his work. He's not just some guy with a camera. He's your friend who wants to tell the story about the best day of your life through photos!
His biography says it all - he is a kick a$s photographer.
When COVID cancelled our wedding and we opted for an intimate ceremony to exchange private vows at our dream venue, we ...
knew we needed a special type of photographer to help us capture this moment. Since it was a non-traditional wedding and we were grieving the loss of our dream wedding, we wanted a photographer who would help us capture the uniqueness of the day and help us embrace the strange situation with laughter. Pete accomplished this and more.
His creative eye and artistic abilities are unparalleled. There isn't a photographer in the business who can inspire and create the shots that he did. He showed us photos along the way, which made us feel comfortable and confident. He kept in mind our insecurities and posed us in a way that looked best for us. Not only did he call out directions for poses, but he also set up moments for perfect candid shots that truly captured our emotions that day - he somehow even made us look nice during our ugly crying while exchanging vows. He kept us smiling and laughing throughout the entire day - taking funny pictures in the mix of serious, romantic ones. He brought such a fun-loving, high spirited energy that we had never experienced before in a wedding photographer.
He was willing to get stuck in blueberry bushes and be bitten by various bugs to obtain the perfect shot. You will definitely be on an adventure during his photoshoots, which makes the day that much more memorable.
Pete has become more than a photographer, he is now part of our family.
My husband and I were married August 24th 2019 and we wanted to make sure we had a photographer / videogra...
pher to capture not just images but the feeling the day brought us and our family.
From our initial meeting to creating our keepsake album Pete captured moments of joy, love and family.
Working with him was easy and he understood that we wanted to enjoy the day. He meticulously scheduled a large (20 people) wedding party as well as family portraits.
He was able to capture all the small details of our special day and its something that we can enjoy for a lifetime.
I can't event put into words how the video moves me every time I watch it. From vignettes of our friends and family smiling and enjoying themselves to a moving edit of our very personal ceremony.
Hands down Pete Mackey takes a personal approach to his work.
We can't thank him enough to enabling us to live the moment of our wedding for years to come.
