My wife and I can not recommend Warm Up Labs more highly. Fernando and Roge are both exceptionally talented, as well as exceptional humans to boot. We fell in love with their beautiful style that combines fine artistry with photojournalism the moment we found their portfolio. It was the perfect combination of qualities that my wife and I both hoped to find with our photographers. Some months after initially contracting them, they offered to come out to our neighborhood and meet for drinks and lunch. We had a great time getting to know them over a few hours, and the fact that we were able to have that time went such a long way in making our wedding day as perfect as it was. Both Roge and Fernando played integral parts in setting my wife and I at ease from the moment the day began, with the fact that we already knew them playing a huge role in that. My wife gets tense and awkward in front of cameras and she almost entirely forgot about being photographed the whole day because of the connection we already had built with Fernando and Roge. They were flexible, attentive, and present at every step along the way. It even began with a flurry of back and forth emails in the week leading up to the wedding as our timeline became finalized and we worked to find the perfect spot in Prospect Park for our private and intimate first look. On the day, they continued to be all those things - from the getting ready photos with each of us in the morning, to the first look, to wrangling our family members through group photos all the way through to the end of the reception (which they were not expected to see though but went out of their way to do so anyway). The photos they took are breathtaking and encapsulate our day so perfectly, exactly as we knew they would - they're everything we could have hoped for and more, and we couldn't be more thankful to have them as treasured memories for the rest of our lives. If you're looking for the perfect wedding photographers, look no further. Fernando and Roge will help make your day and your memories more beautiful than you can imagine, and we would go so far as to say that hiring anyone else would be a mistake.

We worked with WarmUpLab Studio for our wedding at MyMoon in May. From the start, we clicked with them and they made the whole experience which can be at times stressful a total breeze. We appreciated their genuineness and authentic. You could also tell you were working with a couple in love which was an added bonus! Not to mention...our photos were incredible! We were so happy with all of our shots. You can't go wrong with WarmUpLab.

Roge and Fernando were unbelievable during the lead up and execution of documenting our intimate city hall wedding. I was unsure we would get our desired wedding date until about 3 weeks prior and they were incredibly flexible the whole time. Fernando put us at ease and took the most beautiful NYC inspired shots with our families. Ever since, I often catch myself looking at all the beautiful photos reminiscing of that day! We would highly recommend Roge and Fernando to capture your wedding day!

We were absolutely in love with all of our wedding photos—they exceeded our highest expectations! Roge and Fernando are INCREDIBLY talented, and their creativity is truly unmatched. They made us feel so comfortable and at ease, allowing us to enjoy every moment of our special day. They captured not just the key moments but also the little details that made our wedding unique. Their warm personalities made the experience even more enjoyable! We can't recommend them highly enough to any couple looking for exceptional photographers for their wedding day!

Warmup Lab Photography perfectly captured the moments of our wedding day - It brings us such joy to flip through the wedding story they put together for us, remembering all aspects of our wedding day, from the key moments to the small moments, and everything in between (including the ones we missed). In addition to their skill and artistry, Roge and Fernando are amazing people to work with; they're fun, professional, and responsive. Having them with us throughout the day was like having close family/friends by our side. We can't thank them enough and whole-heartedly recommend them!

Roge & Fernando are not only insanely talented, but they are professional, organized and overall incredibly KIND humans. It was clear from the beginning they understood the gravity of our day and were able to beautifully capture the entire vibe. You can really feel the emotions and re-live the day through our photos. On the day of the wedding, they were organized & kept everything running smoothly. They were somehow everywhere all at once, but seamlessly blended in. We got so many compliments about how great our photographers were by our guests before anyone saw a single photo. In addition to their AMAZING work-they returned a 50-shot preview before noon the next day and turned around our entire wedding album of over 1800, edited photos in ~3 weeks. Every single shot is a work of art. I would recommend them 10X over. Best choice of our wedding BY FAR.

Roge and Fernando listened to everything we were looking for. They balanced taking amazing portraits with our families and getting us back to the party! They knew which moments we wanted to capture and were sure to prioritize those. From other people's photos, if we look carefully we can spot them in the background, maneuvering around us to get great shots. Often we had no idea they were even there! The photos we received from them the day after our wedding were such a treat. We couldn't imagine working with anyone else!

Roge and Fernando were the best to work with before, during and after our wedding. Our photos were so beautiful and truly captured the day. They went above and beyond and I whole-heartedly recommend them. They even went extra mile to scout out our venue to plan the best shots. It was even more special that we used them for our engagement shoot, so we formed a great relationship and I knew we were in great hands for our wedding. They are the best photographers!!

Roge and Fernando are amazing people, brilliant artists, and incredible professional and personable. Warm Up Lab Weddings was listed as the top preferred vendor for our venue, MyMoon, in Williamsburg. From their website, my (now) husband and I knew we wanted their aesthetic and style for our photos. Right away, Roge followed up with our outreach, we had a delightful conversation, and immediately felt comfortable; we were relieved to hear they knew our venue immediately and knew how to photograph in the space. We took advantage of the additional engagement photo session package as well. This actually served us as a, pun intended, warm up session to familiarize ourselves with Fernando. He is approachable, warm, and intelligent, and had a way to help both of us get comfortable and relax. On our wedding day, their team was on time, relaxed, humorous, and creative. They were also open to our ideas and suggestions. They also worked seamlessly with our wedding coordinator. A bonus, they also worked really well with our nutty family members. When we received our Preview the following day, we (well I) cried. They were exactly what we wanted. Exactly. So pleased! Highly recommend, and WILL recommend them to our connections in the future.

Roge and Fernando are both true artists who chase after the craft and not the trends. They made us feel so comfortable during our engagement shoot and wedding day. They were able to capture all of our and guests emotions - when I look at the photos I know exactly what what happening/song was playing. We had rain in our forecast and Roge had a plan for every scenario and really focused on making the day special for us. They even proactively scouted out all the places around our venue for photo ops. And the speed that we received our photos! Photography was super important to us and warmup labs delivered.

What can we say about Roge and Fernando? They are the absolute best! They went above and beyond for my wife and I. The pictures came out beautiful and they made everything completely effortless on the day of our wedding (and before) so we could soak up every minute of our special day. Highly, highly recommended!

Roge and Fernando were so wonderful to work with, from our initial consultation to working with photographer Fernando on our wedding day, their approach was both professional and personal. Our priority was to hire a photographer that could artistically capture the candid moments from our wedding celebration as well as direct some portraits of us and our family. Fernando was exceptional – he provided just the right amount of direction to make us feel comfortable and confident during our couple and family portraits, then during the ceremony and reception, he operated without being intrusive and somehow perfectly captured the overall vibe of the day; the happiness, my wife and I, our closest loved ones, and our venue. It was so thrilling to relive our wedding day after receiving our photo gallery, these are treasured memories that we will cherish for a lifetime. Finally, our preview came the day after our wedding, and the rest of the gallery followed very shortly after, we couldn’t believe it! We’re so grateful to Warm Up Labs, couldn’t recommend enough!

Roge and Fernando are incredible photographers and wonderful people. If you are looking for a wedding photographer, look no further. Each of their photos is a work of art. Not only are our wedding photos more beautiful than we could have imagined, they also caught moments that we did not even realize were being captured (and we are so grateful for that). We got to experience how skilled Roger and Fernando are at photographing under all circumstances, from small intimate spaces to larger venues, natural environments to urban landscapes (we had a small religious ceremony and a reception in Brooklyn). They work magic with lighting, put such a creative lens on photographing us in the city, and can catch the best times on a crazy dance floor.
They are warm and put us at ease while taking photos, and also organized keeping us on schedule before the ceremony without ever making us feel rushed. Even with our Covid postponement, they were flexible and great communicators throughout.
We still feel so grateful and lucky to have found Warm Up Lab to capture our wedding days. Thank you again Roge and Fernando!!

Roge and Fernando were hands down the best photographers that we could have ever asked for. They are so personable, caring, light-hearted and talented!!! From shooting our engagement photos in 2018, to our backyard ceremony in 2020 and our big celebration in 2021, they’ve done it all for us!!!! We couldn’t imagine having anyone else document these special days for us. They will forever hold such a special place in our hearts!

If you're scrolling through reviews, trying to figure out THE BEST photographers for your wedding (or really any special event) you can STOP because you simply cannot do better than Roge and Fernando! My husband and I are worked with them for our wedding in Brooklyn, New York this summer and just wow... they were absolutely incredible. Aside from being insanely supportive, flexible, and accommodating even after we had to push our wedding because of covid, they took the time and care to meet with us multiple times ahead of our wedding day to scout out details around our venue. On the day of our wedding, they were even more gracious and incredible than we could have ever imagined. They kept my husband and I the focus of their world on our wedding day and even kept US relaxed when the weather started to turn a bit. The day was so hectic, but no matter what we could turn to them to steady us. They were truly our rocks throughout our wedding process and delivered impeccable and unforgettable photos and memories of our perfect day. We simply cannot recommend Roge and Fernando enough and can't imagine any photographer(s) outperforming them, in photography or day-of vendor demeanor. We are so grateful for their friendship and help throughout our entire process and we're still OBSESSED with our wedding photos, many many months later. Hard stop, no better photographers out there.

We had a great experience with Roge and Fernando! They were super professional and easy to work with from start to finish. Fernando did a terrific job at our small wedding, getting some lovely intimate shots of our small ceremony as well as our couple and family photos, and great candid shots of the toasts and all of our guests throughout the night. Highly recommend them!

Wow. From start to finish, Roge and Fernando surpassed every expectation we had for our wedding photographers. We worked with them for our engagement photos, our wedding ceremony in 2020, and finally our wedding reception in August of 2021. Each day we worked with Roge and Fernando, it was like having sunshine beaming over us. They made us feel warm and comfortable, and caught deeply intimate moments that we will hold dear to us forever. They are true artists, but have an ability to perform their art in such a personal and touching way. They never forget that they are capturing people, not objects, and our photos came out even more beautiful than we ever imagined they would be.
I would hire WarmUpLabs over and over again, and without hesitation recommend Fernando and Roge to anyone. My husband and I feel truly fortunate that we were able to book them for not just one, but two of our most special days.

Hiring Fernando and Roge was one of the best decisions we made. The pictures Fernando took were stunning and we will cherish them forever. Looking at the pictures it was obvious that he puts thought into every shot and used the light beautifully. Roge and Fernando were both such a pleasure to work with and made us feel at ease. After having our wedding cancelled due to covid, we decided to do a photo shoot in our wedding attire. We were so grateful to have Fernando and Roge as a part of our special day.

Fernando and Roge are the best. Fernando pulls out all the stops to make sure he gets the best shots! He climbs ladders, hides in ivy and delivers. My guests were equally impressed with the commitment and focus. Both him and his wife have a gift of creativity and they know exactly what would picture beautifully. When they tell you to do something, ask no questions and trust the process, and know they will deliver the most gorgeous shots. They are the most down to earth photographers we’ve met. When we were thinking of capturing our special day, we wanted to select people who we’d be able to be ourselves with and they are it. The turnaround time is outrageous. Within a day, we received a sneak peeks of our wedding day. They are really the best in the business.

When it came time to choose a photographer, I knew I did not want anyone that was too much in your face, and someone who truly captured genuine small moments and expressions throughout. I remembered seeing a duo hubby and wife photographer at my friend's wedding who was so friendly towards the guests and ended up capturing some amazing photos of my now fiance and I on the dance floor. My friend had nothing but wonderful things to say. When I called Roge, I instantly knew we wanted to work with her for our wedding. She was kind, calming and made us feel excited about our wedding instantly. To top it off, Roge and Fernando traveled to Scituate, Mass for our engagement shoot - a place very special to us for a very great price. We even had to reschedule once due to a sprained foot I had, and they were so easy to work with. Although super nervous about doing an engagement shoot and not knowing what to even expect, Roge calmed us down a few days before over the phone. When we met the couple in person, they were filled with warmth and just good vibes overall. Fernando took our photos while Roge directed and also entertained my future father in law who was around to help watch our dog during the shoot. Fernando and Roge allowed us to let all nerves go away and have such a fun day - during a very insane year. Fernando has a way of making you feel super special yet totally relaxed during a shoot. He pretty much said thank you anytime we followed his direction, which I thought was insanely sweet as we should we thanking them. Also, given the current state of the world, they wore masks and took proper cautions for a very socially distant activity and we truly had the best day with them. I thought maybe we'd be tired of taking photos after an hour, and I instead wanted it to last all day - they were very flexible and allowed us to go to all 4 of our favorite places in town - including the beach! When we got our photos back - I cried. Fernando captured such beautiful angles and intimate moments I forgot even happened during our 3-hour day together. We were truly sad to see them hit the road and can not wait for them to capture our wedding day. They are an incredibly talented duo who give you photos you will always want to look back on.

Roge and Fernando were great! We had to cancel our original plans due to Covid and decided to hold a very small ceremony during the middle of the week. WarmUpLab was so flexible to accommodate the change of plans. Fernando shot our wedding and we had amazing photos for preview the next day and full gallery within 2 weeks. He has such a creative eye and we are thrilled with photos we have. He also was very cautious, kept a safe distance and wore a mask the entire night.
Thank you WarmUpLab!!!

Roge and Fernando were on the vendor list for our wedding venue, and we reached out to them first because their prices were shockingly reasonable. We were honestly not expecting their work to be so gorgeous given their prices! But once we saw their website, spoke with them in person (they were very flexible with meeting us!), and talked with them about how they shoot, we were sold. They were responsive and warm the whole way through, and they adjusted their usual shooting schedule to accommodate our desires (I didn't want to take portraits before the ceremony and my husband didn't want a first look).
On the day of the wedding they were communicative and prompt. They were unobtrusive but very firm when it came to corralling the families for photos, and we had a blast wandering around Williamsburg taking wedding portraits. Fernando is so devoted he almost got hit by several cars trying to get the perfect shot! But luckily, we all made it out unscathed.
If you are considering Fernando & Roge for your wedding you will be SO pleased with your experience and with your photos. I can't recommend them enough - they were phenomenal!

After looking through page after page of wedding photographers, they had almost started to blend together, but Fernando and Roge's fresh yet timeless work stood out. They were able to strike a balance between documentary and art photography, capturing all the most important moments so beautifully, honestly, and thoroughly, while also working with the landscape to make visually striking images that make you want to turn your home into a gallery. They were wonderful to work with for our engagement session -- even my camera-shy then fiance said it flew by -- and we recieved so many excellent shots that truly captured our personalities and love. They worked tirelessly on our wedding day to capture iconic candids of all our favorite people, as well as the quieter moments and details that were so precious; they adjusted to changing circumstances without skipping a beat and provided great support leading up to our day, and after. We love our photos, and Roge and Fernando are great to work with!

Roge and Fernando were wonderful to work with from the very beginning. They are communicative, helpful, creative, and warm. They know what they’re doing, are great listeners and helped guide us when we needed it. We were drawn to WarmUp Labs because of their photo journalistic style and unique ability to capture candid shots - we worked with Fernando day of the wedding and he captured, so precisely, the mood, movement, light, love, and happiness. We cannot stop looking at our incredible photos and can’t say enough good things about Roge and Fernando. You will not be let down!

Roge and Fernando were amazing to work with from the beginning. My husband travels for work so we had to reschedule our intro meeting multiple times and they were totally flexible. When we finally met in person we knew they were a perfect fit. They had very fair prices and allow us access to all photos. We had our engagement shoot with Fernando to help us feel comfortable. The engagement photos turned out perfect in Central Park. To help prep for our wedding Roge answered 100 questions regarding a timeline. They both went the week of my wedding to actually walk around Central Park to find the best path for my bridal party to walk. On the day of the wedding they arrived early. The best part is that they send a handful of professional pictures from the wedding the day after the wedding (how amazing is that). I would highly recommend Roge and Fernando!

From our first meeting to the weeks following our wedding, Roge and Fernando were fantastic! They are so easy to work with, so genuine to be in the company of, and so skilled at everything they do. We had an engagement shoot that really helped us get comfortable in front of a camera and the day of the wedding could not have gone any better! They are two of the nicest and easiest people to work with and I am in love with their photos!! Their style is just what I wanted, artistic, alternative & so timeless. They really captured the day beautifully. I am still impressed with how quickly they turn around edited photos & how many they send! Great job you guys, we will forever have our memories captured with your beautiful work.

From the moment we reached out to Fernando and Roge from Warm Up Labs we knew they would be our vendors. We felt their passion for their work and true love for their clients immediately, first through email and later in person during our full pre-wedding walk through.
I had only one request from our photographers, and that was to capture beautiful moments but let us “do our own thing”. Little did I know, that was their mantra! They staged photos with family when needed, even followed a full list of over 15 family portraits, but when it came to my husband and I it was like they felt when to give us space and when to join in on our little moments.
Roge in particular was my saving grace, I’m a type A planner and what I thought was just a short wedding walk through turned into a full schedule in her head which she then worked with me to perfect. They didn’t rush us the day of but somehow made sure we captured everything we wanted.
And I know I haven’t even gotten to the main reason why you’re probably reading this review... Their work. And that’s because all I have to say is WOW. They are both professionals in their field, they master the non wedding wedding photography feel. Our photos did not just capture our most intimate moments, but they also honored the light, texture and beauty around us.
We walked away from our big day gaining two dear friends!
If there is one thing I can recommend everyone for their wedding day, it’s to have these two genuine and loving souls by your side!

One of the best decisions we made for our wedding was hiring Roge & Fernando as our photographers. These two helped us remember our wedding day forever in the most beautiful way. Their talent and skill is evident in every photo and Fernando's use of light is just one of the many, many reasons we were drawn to them. Their attention to detail is impeccable and they were so, so thorough in their documentation of our wedding. We asked for a lot of shots of the party and guests (rather than mostly just us) and they managed to capture the sweetest moments that might've passed us by in the commotion of the day. Of course I cried when they delivered our massive album because it was everything we ever hoped for in our wedding photos. We didn't have a videographer and after seeing these shots we definitely don't regret it. Their style and skill managed to capture the emotion and energy of the day in every photo. We have already recommended Roge & Fernando to several couples, and will continue to recommend them any chance we get. We truly adore you two and know every other couple you work with will, too!!!

I don’t know if I’ll be able to put into words how INCREDIBLE this duo is, but indulge me while I try. Every step of the process with Roge and Fernando was seamless, totally personal, and an absolute joy. Everything leading up to the day was communicated so clearly to us, they were patient with us the whole time, and honestly made it feel like we’d been friends for years after only meeting in person once.
The day of our wedding these two were so personable, we had SO MANY people telling us what a blast they had with our photographers! They were discreet during the ceremony (honestly, I don’t know how they got the incredible shots that they did while remaining virtually invisible), and felt like part of the party once we were celebrating.
We woke up the day after our wedding, had breakfast, checked our emails and in our inbox was already a selection of photos for us to gush over. I immediately started crying on the first one. The photos are just unbelievable. Roge and Fernando have the unique ability to capture feeling in a photo. They allowed us to just indulge in our day and were always exactly where they needed to be to capture the moment so we have it forever.
I truly cannot say enough good words about our experience. They were by far our favorite vendors, and it felt like we were talking to friends the entire time. With all the stressors that come with planning a wedding, we were so at ease when it came to our photos, they let us relish in the day and planning and took care of everything. The best decision we made aside from marrying each other, was working with this absolute dream team. We are so thankful to them and will always remember what an incredible gift they gave us.

Our photographs ended up being the best part of an amazing wedding! Roge and Fernando were incredibly unobtrusive to the ceremony and reception. It honestly felt like they were barely even there. They did a fantastic job capturing the wedding party and our families beforehand. The shots were not your typical wedding photos, but in the absolute best way possible, we absolutely loved them and cannot thank them enough. It felt like we were working with true artists and masters of their craft. We received the preview photos immediately after the wedding which was unexpected and so appreciated. When we received the full photo album, we were in awe of some of the shots they were able to capture.

We couldn't have dreamt of better wedding photographers! Our wedding photos are perfect. Roge and Fernando were perfect from start to finish. Our first meeting, they were familiar with our venue - MyMoon - which was immensely helpful for a couple planning a wedding themselves. In comparison to other photographers we interviewed, the package we chose offered a lot for the cost (engagement shoot, two shooters, etc.) and they were extremely personable with a unique style that we had never seen before. They are true artists and none of our shots look like your "typical" wedding photography. The engagement shoot showcased their talent early on and they didn't disappoint for the actual wedding! Our family and friends loved Roge/Ferenando as well - they were professional, punctual and fun! We received so many photos, fully edited and high quality - they captured every moment and all the emotions. If you're looking for timeless, truly bespoke memories, look no further!!

We feel so lucky to have found Warm Up Lab - Roge and Fernando - to shoot our wedding. They are incredible and their work truly told our story. We will cherish the memories they captured forever and highly recommend them to other couples.
First, the quality of their work is excellent. We were drawn to their photo-journalistic style and ability to capture beautiful, unique moments -- the big ones as well as the small, behind-the-scenes moments you could easily have missed. The couples' photos and first-look shots are stunning - between Fernando's incredible artistic skill and Roge's creative eye, we have an amazing collection showing our love and excitement on our wedding day. Roge did an amazing job coordinating our large wedding party and families into gorgeous group shots that feel spontaneous and lively. Our wedding venue was somewhat small and quite full to capacity -- despite this, they captured everything beautifully -- the intimate hugs, the bumping dance floor, the dinner conversations and laughter. Looking back at our photos, we can truly relive each moment of the day.
Beyond the excellent quality of their work, they are the loveliest people to work with, putting us at ease throughout the process. When we first met them, we were struck by how warm and easy to be with they are. Roge met with us before the day to walk through our photo locations and timeline which was incredibly helpful to make us feel comfortable with the process. We really appreciated the time she spent with us on this step, as it helped us visualize how everything would go down and feel less stressed. On our wedding day, she reminded us to breathe and stay in the moment -- an important and very much appreciated reminder! We are so happy they were part of our day.
Finally - they are so fast! They sent us our "sneak peek" link of incredible photos the very next day which we absolutely loved, and finished photos within a month of our wedding. Being able to relive these moments while we are still feeling the energy of that incredible day has been so much fun. Without hesitation, we highly recommend Warm Up Lab!

If you’re thinking about booking Roge and Fernando to shoot your wedding (or anything, really), do it! We could not be happier with the photos, the experience, and the better-than-we remembered capturing of the day. Near strangers have commented to me that these are the best wedding photos they’ve ever seen. I will definitely use Warmup Lab for my second wedding 😉.

Our friends' recommendation of Roge and Fernando was definitely the best wedding gift we received. We could not be happier with the photos and the experience, and now get excited for any opportunity to recommend them to others.
It's difficult to put into words how thrilled we are with the images, both for the incredible moments and emotions they captured--many of which we hadn't remembered or experienced firsthand--and just as art. We knew we liked Roge and Fernando's style from their website, but we were still floored but how beautifully they were able to document our wedding day.
And we've treasured the experience of working with WarmUpLab as much as their quality work. Roge was an absolute pleasure to interact with from day one, and while we didn't have her as a second shooter, the details she anticipated made for a seamless day and moments that wouldn't have otherwise been caught. She remained just as kind and responsive after the wedding. Fernando, in addition to having a remarkable eye, was a wonderful presence throughout the day (especially for a couple not so comfortable being photographed). We all--our families included--felt incredibly at ease with him, even in the most emotional moments. Roge and Fernando were also super flexible and understanding when our plans changed at the eleventh hour due to weather. It turned into an even better ceremony than planned, but that would never have happened if we had to stick with the initial time frame. Working with WarmUpLab was definitely the best wedding planning decision we made.

Our experience with Warm Up Lab Weddings was nothing short of AMAZING! In all seriousness, we were overwhelmed with how beautifully and artistically Warm Up Lab captured and documented our wedding day. The perspective and light of each photo is simply phenomenal and awe-inspiring. It is truly a joy to review the photos and remember the day in such detail and beauty. Fernando was so wonderfully skilled at capturing the important and interesting moments - not just the big ones but the often overlooked little ones. Roge was nothing but lovely and helpful to work with and offered guidance throughout the process that was indelible and meaningful. THANK YOU!
Choosing Warm Up Lab as our wedding photographer(s) was, without a doubt, the best wedding decision we made. From the very bottom of both of our hearts, thank you thank you thank you!

I do not have enough space in this review box to tell you all the things we loved about Roge and Fernando! From the moment we facetimed with them we knew that it was a match made in heaven. We were specifically looking for someone to capture organic moments without asking us to pose too much and Roge and Fernando did just that. Fernando is so talented in that he sees a scene in his head and instead of telling you exactly what to do, he just gently places you in the scene and lets the magic happen naturally. Im not sure how they pulled it off but they made the backdrop of Manhattan look like our own personal backyard. I can not recommend this duo more and wish I could get married every year just so they could take our picture.

Roge & Fernando were great! They came up with the location shooting spots, shot ideas, and then we were beyond thrilled with the results. As people who weren't necessarily comfortable in front of the camera, they made the whole process easy. They also helped with creating our wedding album, which turned out amazing!

I have so many amazing things to say about this husband wife duo its hard to know where to start.
From the moment I spoke to Roge on the phone I knew I wanted to work with her. She was professional, down to earth, warm and someone I immediately felt comfortable with. Before even booking them Roge talked me through critical photography decisions and helped me understand how to best organize the day.
On the day of they arrived early, planned their shots and most importantly helped keep everyone on time, (removing all the time keeping off my plate- THANK YOU!) This alone is a reason to book them.
It is also extremely rare for multiple people to come up after the wedding and compliment the photographers, before they have ever seen a photo. I had family members and friends notice how hard Roge and Fernando where working, and how they were everywhere.
Less then 24 hours after they left the wedding, they sent me a sneak peak of BEAUTIFUL pictures they had taken. This is such a wonderful gift to keep the wedding buzz going.
I would recommend them 100 times over!

This husband and wife duo is the real deal! I have been in 15+ wedding in my life I've seen just about everything. They absolutely exceeded every expectation. The pictures are just on another level. Their ability to efficiently pose large groups is the best I've ever seen. I seen other photographers waste so much time trying to do this but they nailed it in no time at all. The intimate photos getting ready before the ceremony look like they belong in a fashion magazine. They literally got better and better as the night went on. Our reception was action packed, my wife and I danced a good 75% of the time and every time I looked up from the fun they were there capturing all the genuine happy moments with friends and family. The candid photos are so good , looking through the mountain of photos they gave us feels like living my wedding night over every time. Not to mention they gave us like 100 pictures the day after that we shared immediately on social media. Then gave all the rest to us 1 month after the wedding. I can not recommend them enough... for what they gave me I honestly feel like they should have charged me double.

I can't emphasize enough how happy I am that we chose Warm Up Lab Weddings for our wedding photographers. Roge and Fernando have an excellent eye for natural, beautiful and intimate photography. We looked at so many photographers for our wedding and I knew instantly when we looked at their work that this is the type of photojournalistic style I wanted. Roge and Fernando are lovely people who truly make you feel like you're their only clients. Our engagement photoshoot was 6 hours long and we walked all over NYC, pausing to take photos in classic and also off beat locations. They are so responsive via email and phone and their presence put me at ease on my wedding day. They are organized and know how to divide and conquer so you have amazing photos of every aspect of your day. We had around 200 guests and 16 people in our wedding party and they handled it with grace and ease. We would recommend them wholeheartedly to any couple who is looking for authentic, gorgeous, and FUN photos and memories.

Asking WarmUp Lab to shoot our wedding was the best thing we could have ever done. Not only were they incredible at communicating with us before the event, but they took better pictures than I could have ever imagined. I am uncomfortable taking pictures and Roge and Fernando made me feel so comfortable! We got over 1500 pictures back from them in our digital album and they even got our sneak peek photos back to us THE NEXT DAY!
There is really no other option when it comes to picking a NYC wedding photographer.

Photography was one of the most important decisions to us in wedding planning. Understanding that photos are lasting memories of a day that goes by in a flash, we wanted to be sure we picked the right photographers. Roge and Fernando were everything we could ask for in a photography duo. They are incredibly collaborative and put great emphasis on getting to know the couple-to-be. On the day-of, they were prompt, and a calming force during a whirlwind of a day. For a bride that does not enjoy her pictures taken, they made me feel comfortable, which was evident in the beautiful final product. Not only did we receive a sneak peak the following day, we had a full album just 6-8 weeks later. We could not be more pleased with our choice and highly recommend to anyone looking for photographers that capture those special and authentic moments.

Roge and Fernando are unlike any other photographers I have ever met! They captured our wedding in the most natural yet classic way. They made us feel like old friends the entire planning process which helped keep us calm even despite some disasters that occurred with our venue. They are extremely professional and they take the time to make sure your photos end up being perfectly about you and your loved one. Our guest are even talking about the photos we shared and how much they loved Roge and Fernando! They are happy to oblige and take an necessary portrait style photos (need to have a few with mom and dad!) yet the magic really happens when they are capturing the moments in between the staged photos. I would have paid 10X more for these photos. Some of my favorites are the ones at the church as they captured so many incredibly intimate moments between my husband and I. We love you guys!

It is hard to even express how incredible it was to work with Roge and Fernando, and our wedding pictures are beyond our wildest dreams. We are not comfortable in front of the camera, and were dreading the photo part of the wedding, and anxious about capturing images where we look our best. Roge and Fernando made us feel so calm, from the progression of the day, to getting our candid moments like first look, and making sure to get all the posed groups we needed to. We really appreciated meeting ahead of time to discuss the game plan, and it made us lead into our wedding day not anxious at all about making sure everything would be captured or when. They organized the time before hand so that we have so many great shots of getting ready, just us, our wedding party, and family, in addition to the ones at the actual event. It was an incredibly special treat to receive around 70 edited photos the morning after our wedding. Even just in that selection our whole day was captured and the joy and magic of it all. Roge and Fernando captured so many amazing candid shots that are so us, so natural, and so full of happiness and love. Going through the entire collection makes us relive each special moment. The images captured how comfortable we were with them. They were so professional and truly artists, the images show us and our wedding day in a gorgeous and artful way. We could not recommend Warm Up Labs more!

Roge and Fernando were simply outstanding for our September 2019 wedding at MyMoon Brooklyn . As a team they produced the most incredible, meaningful photos we could have hoped for from our special day. We used their services for our engagement shoot and for our wedding day. I cannot begin to express the number of compliments we've received on their photos. They manage to capture such depth and emotion in wonderfully creative shots. Their responsiveness, kindness, and flexibility went a long way for my husband and I. We are so thankful for their services and can't recommend them enough.

Look no further for wedding photographers!!
Roge and Fernando photographed our wedding at FEAST at Round Hill on 6/16/19 in Washingtonville, NY. They are SO talented and incredibly easy and fun to work with!
I remember meeting with them initially and they described their guarantee to provide a "sneak peek" of photos the day after your wedding and I can't begin to explain how awesome it was to actually see quality images the very next day and already begin reliving how much fun our wedding was. I also really appreciated how once all of the formal photos and ceremony were over they stuck by us and made sure that if we were talking to a guest and wanted a posed picture they were right there to capture it. At the same time, they were also taking candid, in-the-moment images. They both have an eye for capturing special moments and exploring unique angles and set-ups for both formal and informal photos.
On top of all of that, they were extremely responsive and organized and reached out to us leading up to the event to ensure they answered any lingering questions or requests that we may have. We will forever treasure our wedding memories and are so lucky to have the beautifully artistic images from Roge and Fernando. xoxo!

If you are reading this you are probably browsing and searching through the endless amount of photographers listed on The Knot. My husband & I set up numerous calls, reviewed portfolios but nothing compared to the passion, dedication and creativity that Warmup Lab put into our special day. Wedding planning is stressful…decision after decision. The best decision we made was hiring Warmup Lab, Fernando & Roge were incredible throughout the whole process and I couldn’t believe how many people noticed their dedication and coverage throughout the entire night. It was great to relive the nights moments the next day when they send a preview link. I can go on and on about these two…save yourself time and frustration, BOOK WARMUP LAB FOR YOUR WEDDING! You won’t regret it.
