NY Photo Video Group

dding was 6/27/2026 and I waited this long to post my review because I was afraid of retaliation so I waited until I received my album and video. First and foremost, Joe, the photographer (and owner!!!) looked miserable at our wedding. Didn't crack a smile, didn't talk to or engage our guests. And everyone was talking about it. Sooooooo embarrassing!!! I could accept that IF he had done a great job. However, hired for 7 hours, only produced 784 pictures!!! I stopped counting at 100, but more than 100 of the pics are only of 2 or 3 people and they're all CLOSE UP, literally shoulders up like head shots!!! The worst part is he missed such simple key moments of our wedding day...there are NO pictures of the entire wedding party at the altar!!! My best friend officiated, I have ONE pic of her during the ceremony and its not even centered. NO centered pics of me coming down the aisle. AND, almost all of the pics of our ceremony were taken from above the head of our officiant...he kept hitting her in the head with the camera strap to the point that she turned around mid ceremony. EVERYONE NOTICED!!! Again, sooooooo embarrassing!!! And the pics of the ceremony look so warped because they are taken from ABOVE! NONE FROM THE FRONT??? NO PICS OF THE GIRLS AT THE ALTAR!!! NO PICS OF MY STEPCHILDREN (BEST MAN AND MOH) STANDING UP FOR THEIR FATHER!!!!! How do you miss that????? NO pics were taken after the cermony with the entire wedding party or both of our families. We have NO full length pics of the wedding party. NONE!! And NO pics of my at the altar with my train spread out behind me. For our first dance, he took all of the pics from BEHIND us!!!! Who the hell wants pictures of their BACKS during the first dance??? And we had 2 dips during our choreographed dance he missed BOTH!!! We did a whole singalong on the dance floor with blow up microphones, and there are NO pics of us singing and dancing... NONE!!! We had a packed dance floor, and in the video you can actually see the photographer standing against the wall with his camera hanging down. NO EFFORT to capture the fun and the essence of our day! I literally had to take still shots from the video to put together my own photo album. When I went to pick up my album, I was calm and expressed how unhappy I was that he seemed to miss all of the memorable moments of our wedding. Instead of listening to my complaints, his response was "OK! GET OUT! I DON'T HAVE TO LISTEN TO THIS!" That's how you respond to an unhappy customer??? If I could have him shut down, I would. I don't know how he promotes himself as a wedding photographer. I don't believe the pics on their web site or in their studio are theirs. There is just no way its the same photographer. If I could leave negative or 0 stars, I would but I cant post this without at least one star
