Peter Rigo Photography

Peter photographed our wedding in June 2022 and our experience was great! Peter is the perfect balance of casual, professional and friendly. I wanted to make sure that our photographer was someone that I wouldn't mind spending a significant amount of time with on our wedding day - because the photographer is always there! I was delighted at how much Peter just felt like an unobtrusive friend the whole day. Even our guests told us how much they enjoyed him and his presence! Not to mention that the photos were beautiful and delivered quickly after the wedding. I also really appreciated that Peter sent a small sneak peek just a day or so after the wedding, because we couldn't wait! I would recommend Peter and work with him again in a heartbeat.

I can’t recommend Peter enough! From the first day we met him at our engagement shoot, he made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera, especially my husband who wasn’t so comfortable posing for pictures. He was so helpful with helping me create my timeline for the wedding day & was so great in capturing all of the perfect moments the day of. My bridesmaids still can’t stop raving about how much they loved him. Aside from being so friendly & easy to work with, his photos are absolutely stunning!! I couldn’t be happier with how my wedding photos turned out. So if you are looking for a wedding photographer look no further and reach out to Peter!

We absolutely loved working with Peter for our wedding in June in New Jersey. In the lead-up to the wedding, he was accessible and comforting, providing his insight opinion and helping us plan the timeline of the day in advance. On the day of the wedding, he was both professional and candid, providing suggestions and recommendations for poses and set-ups that turned out beautifully in the final products. Also - so flexible and friendly!! The photos from our wedding are gorgeous and easily accessible to download. I would absolutely hire Peter again!

Peter was our wedding photographer for our destination wedding in Prague and he was absolutely wonderful to work with. Not only was his energy great (he was calm when we needed it, and helped us perk up when we needed it too!), he was helpful in gently coaching us how to pose, listened to our wants, and found lots of stunning places around the city to take pictures in. We only heard amazing things from our guests about Peter as well, he captured all of the special of our day in a way that reflected our taste and style. We would definitely book Peter again!

Book Peter for your wedding photos IMMEDIATELY! He took the most beautiful photos of our winter wedding. He is a master at capturing beautiful moments with perfect lighting. It exceeded our expectations, and our expectations were already high! Aside from gorgeous pictures, he is such a wonderful person to work with. He is so kind, patient, and relaxed unlike some other photographers I've worked. He really helped put me at ease on the wedding day and with planning during a pandemic. I can't wait to get the rest of my photos back because the few I have so far were so beautiful they literally made me cry! Thank you so much Peter and team. I wish I could hire you again but I only plant to get married once lol 😆

Could not be happier with hiring Peter as a photographer for our wedding! Organizing an international wedding during the pandemic is stressfull enough and personally, I was not really looking forward to any photographing. We are both not a type of people who enjoy to pose or take many pictures of themself, and I always considered myself very unphotogenic. However that all changed the moment Peter arrived. He had created a very relaxed & fun, but professional atmosphere, and made us, our parents, and everyone in the wedding party feel very comfortable with the photoshoot. I would never think we will end up having such a beautiful and elegant photos from our wedding day as we did! Additionally, Peter is very organized and had a great patience with some of our unruly guests :D. Thank you Peter!

My husband and I had an amazing experience with Peter as our wedding photographer. He was extremely professional and put my anxiety at ease (as much as he could!). He sent a few of his favorite photos, only a day after the wedding, for us to view and they are more incredible than both of us could have imagined! We have nothing but amazing things to say about Peter. Do not hesitate to use him for your wedding or special event!

My husband and I had such a great experience with Peter as our photographer. We we referred to Peter by his partner, Yan Schwartzman Photography, and had a fantastic time working with the both of them. Peter was the one who did all of the photography and editing and Yan did the business related aspects (the contract and payments). Both of them were super professional, friendly, and very responsive to our questions. I really appreciated that we were able to plan the aspects of our wedding via email with them because we were planning our New Jersey wedding from out of state. Peter was only an email away whenever I had a question. Our engagement session was super fun and I couldn't stop smiling and laughing throughout the day. It feels like you're meeting up with an old friend when you work with Peter. I had such a great time despite the wind and the chilly temperature during our shoot. The photos that we got back were amazing quality and we had so many great ones to share with our relatives. We got them all back in a super timely fashion too, which was great! Peter was such a joy to work with on our wedding day as well. He goes above and beyond to make sure his clients are happy. He ended up showing up early in the morning and stayed with us throughout the day until the cake cutting and bouquet/garter toss at night time. It was great to be able to spend our entire day with him, and I am so grateful that he dedicated that much time to our wedding, especially since we had a bit of a gap between our ceremony and reception. It was so much fun taking photos with Peter, and I'm really happy that he let us do some of our own silly and non traditional ideas for bridal party and bride/groom photos. It was great being able to do something to make my wedding something special and different from the norm, something that fits with my husband and I's quirky personalities. The photos that we got back from our wedding were simply amazing. We got so many great ones and all of them were ready a few weeks after our wedding. I am so happy that we reached out to Peter to ask him to be our wedding photographer. We have amazing memories to look back on thanks to his fantastic work. He's one of the friendliest and personable photographers I've ever met. If I had to do it all over again I'd hire him in a heartbeat.

Peter, the pictures you captured for our wedding were absolutely stunning. We truly appreciate all of your hard work to memorialize our special day. Words cannot express how happy/excited we were to see how great they turned out!

We don't have enough great things to say about Peter! We were lucky enough to have him as our wedding photographer and did an engagement session with him as well! He is the perfect combination of really fun and super chill- he made us feel at ease throughout the entire process. We were so happy that we selected him to capture our amazing day and he truly did an awesome job. Pictures are one of the only things you will have to remember your day by and Peter will be able to do exactly that. My husband is a photographer himself and was very impressed with Peter's skills and photography equipment.

We are beyond grateful that we had the privilege of working with Peter on our wedding day!!! He has the most calming and pleasant disposition (which comes in handy especially if you're in frantic bride mode) and makes the whole experience enjoyable and stress-free. We didn't really have a vision of what we wanted- which actually worked out really well because Peter was able to just do what he does best and capture the most incredible pictures! We had such an amazing time working together that we felt like he was a part of the family before the ceremony even ended! We will be forever grateful to Peter and his assistant for giving us such beautiful memories to look back on!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about my experience with Peter as my Photographer this past fall for my wedding in NJ. He was professional, meticulous, fun and most of all produced absolutely gorgeous pictures. I received numerous compliments on the pictures and could not believe we all could look so good! Besides being great day-of he was responsive before and after the wedding for questions or any concerns. I highly recommend Peter for anyone who is planning their wedding!

I don't have enough phenomenal things to say about our photographer Peter Rigo. From the moment I spoke with Peter, it was clear how much passion and love he had for the business. I will have the most beautiful memories to look back on thanks to him. Peter is so passionate about what he does and made sure to go beyond every shot we wanted. The flow through out the entire day was seamless and wedding moments were spotlighted, but the focus always remained on the love everyone in that room felt through the images. Peter was incredible at giving us the direction we needed. His dedication to his job and pleasing us was evident. His attention to detail was incredible and he made our entire day so easy and enjoyable.

This guy is awesome! Peter was our wedding photographer in NYC. The wedding was planned from out of the US and even though there was a 6-hour time shift between us, we had no problem to get in touch with him to discuss all the necessary details. He was very responsive and full of ideas, but at the same time keen on understanding our vision, taste, and dynamics. Depending on your preferences, Peter can either play an active role organizing the setup, or a passive one by simply being a documentarist of the event. He is a very relaxed and patient person, always with a smile on his face. His positive energy was somehow also transposed on us I guess, we felt very comfortable having him around. He loved to work outside in different environments and was excited about our ideas for a setup, but I really recommend to let him set his vision free and create his story of your day. You won´t regret it! He truly has an eye for getting cool shots and capturing emotional moments. Also the postproduction went really smooth, and the pictures ….. see for yourself! (http://www.peterrigo.com/) We love it! We definitely recommend him and MEMO agency. They´re just great!

We love you Peter! We booked our wedding photography through Pure Event Group (our DJ/MC package). We are so happy we were paired up with Peter! From the beginning, he was very responsive, and even before he met us, he was very interested in understanding our vision and aesthetic. He corresponded with us by email and phone before the wedding to make sure that he had an idea of all the shots we wanted to get, and he suggested a really helpful timeline for the day. On the day of the wedding, he was early and went right to work photographing all my detail shots (shoes, earrings, etc). He has a great way of setting up the shots then working so stealthily that you can still be natural and have a good time. He got amazing shots of me coming down the aisle and my husband's face when I came through the church doors. We joked afterward that Peter is some kind of magician, because we have these amazing shots that are clearly taken from all different places, but you don't really see him moving around. We loved that he was excited to do some outside shots even though it was 40 degrees and windy. Some of our absolute favorite pictures are the outdoor shots we took on the waterfront in Hoboken at magic hour with the New York skyline in the background. Peter didn't have an assistant that day, so he was working twice as hard moving lights by himself and changing lenses, but he stayed in good spirits and was super energetic all day. He really captured the spirit of the day, and we treasure our pictures so much! Thank you Peter!

We had Peter for our wedding photographer in August. Our wedding was planned from out of state. Out photos came out perfect and he was a pleasure to work with. He really has an eye for getting the best shot. He also worked around us being out of state with skype and phone appointments.
