We could not have asked for a better photography and videography team for our wedding reception! Bayo was truly a mind reader — constantly in the right place at the right time and somehow captured every special moment without ever feeling staged or forced. Arlene worked quietly behind the scenes, capturing every emotional, joy-filled detail so naturally that it feels like we’re reliving the night every time we watch our video.

When I was looking for a photographer and videographer, I was completely lost. The photographers I spoke to before I found George Street were way out of my budget and the style wasn’t exactly what I was looking for. When I found George Street, not only did I get incredible photographers, an amazing videographer but also constant communication, all my questions answered, a BEAUTIFUL album I’ll always cherish and so so so much guidance that God knows I needed. I 1000% recommend George Street Photo and Video to every upcoming bride. You will not regret it.

Working with Lauren was truly such a special experience for our family. She has a way of making you feel completely at ease, even if you’re not used to being in front of a camera. The patience and kindness she showed, especially toward our 16 month old, who is easily distracted and constantly on the move, meant so much. She didn’t rush him or force anything. She just naturally connected with him until the sweetest moments started happening on their own. When we received our gallery, I was honestly blown away. She captured tiny expressions and little moments I didn’t even realize were happening. These are photos we’ll cherish for a lifetime, not just portraits but memories frozen in the most beautiful way. If you’re looking for someone who is talented, thoughtful, and genuinely invested in giving you meaningful photos, I couldn’t recommend her more. She’s everything you’d hope for in a photographer.

Awarded Best of Zola
The process of finding a wedding photographer and videographer, as any Bride knows, can be extremely stressful. We took quite a few meetings before we sat down with Hanel for our first video call. From the start, I stressed to him that as an interracial couple, it was extremely important to us that every single person, regardless of their skin color, be captured well in the photos and videos with lighting that worked for them. Hanel assured us that the team would be able to accomplish this and even sent us a gallery for reference, which ultimately helped us make our decision. When we received our photos, we were thrilled to see this goal was met and exceeded. Every photo, every person, every moment was beautifully and thoughtfully captured. We had the opportunity to do an engagement shoot with Mike before our wedding which was wonderful. We both felt a little uncomfortable in front of the camera, but Mike knew exactly what to say to capture those intimate moments. He made the experience feel natural when it was anything but! On our wedding day, we had the same fantastic experience. Mike and his team knew exactly what to do and they helped guide the way. They showed up and got right to work on detail shots and set up the room to look amazing for our getting ready shots. The photography assistant did the same for the men where they were getting ready. As a wedding singer myself, I have seen far too many photographers insert themselves into intimate ceremony moments. Mike and his team were extremely respectful at the Church, yet still able to capture the important moments! We got married on an extremely cold November day, right after daylight savings time so we didn’t have a ton of time between the ceremony and reception to capture daylight photos since we decided not to do a first look. Once again, Mike and the team worked efficiently to get all the appropriate photos and even got some stunning Fall foliage pictures. They were very good at scoping out the locations for beautiful backdrops which we see in all of our wedding gallery photos. They got amazing outside evening photos at Westbury Manor as well, even though it was so dark by the time we got there. When I was stressed towards the end of the night that we might not capture every planned moment (my husband and I sang an opera duet at the wedding reception on top of everything else!) they worked with the DJ to make sure everything flowed and all moments were captured and we did not feel rushed. Overall, the team was wonderful. They knew exactly what to do to make sure every moment was captured beautifully and everyone looked amazing! I cannot recommend Duet Photo and Video enough. We will cherish these memories for the rest of our lives!

Choosing Justin as our wedding photographer was truly one of the best decisions we made for our big day. He arrived early and immediately put us at ease with his easygoing and friendly attitude. Justin was incredibly efficient throughout the event—he captured all of the moments we requested plus so many more we hadn’t even thought of. Not only did he make sure to photograph us as a couple, but he also paid close attention to our guests, ensuring everyone was included in the memories. The sheer number of photos and the variety of angles he provided honestly made it seem like there were two photographers working instead of just one. We were blown away by how quickly Justin delivered our photos. Within just four days of our wedding, he sent us a stunning first look gallery of 300 photos. Justin was by far the best vendor we worked with—extremely responsive and attentive to detail. We can’t thank him enough for his hard work and the beautiful photographs we’ll cherish forever.

I never thought I’d cry over an email, but when Covenant Pictures sent our full wedding gallery just 12 days after the ceremony, I couldn’t stop the happy tears. These photos captured our day in a way that felt deeply personal, emotional, and true to us. But let me back up—throughout the entire planning process, they were consistently supportive and incredibly communicative. Their bi-weekly emails weren’t generic—they felt tailored to me, filled with checklists, helpful reminders, and personal notes. When the big day came, they moved like a stealthy, joyful crew—capturing everything from my dad’s reaction when he saw me in my dress, to the tiny flower girl meltdown (which turned into one of my favorite shots!). I always felt seen, heard, and respected. And my family absolutely adored them—they even got my grandma to smile and dance for a photo! Every guest I talked to after said something like, “Your photographers were AMAZING.” And they were. If you're on the fence, let me save you the trouble—hire Covenant Pictures. They're worth every penny and more.

Vic was the best photographer my husband and I have ever worked with!!! We hired her for our wedding and she was so professional and fun to work with. My family, bridal party and guest loved her! Vic had us laughing the entire time and made us feel comfortable with posing and suggested us the best ideas too. After a week or 2 after the wedding we got our photos and they were breathtaking!! Most photos I didn’t realized she captured since she was so quick on her feet. It looks like there was 3 photographers since she got all angles from the ceremony, speeches, and dances. We are so impressed by how amazing she is. We highly recommend her to photograph any event you have and want to make sure everything is captured!

We were the lucky ones, hiring this dynamic duo! Jeremy and Jenn were extremely efficient, fun, and caught all of the moments that were truly special to us. Wedding day, they came in and literally handled it all. Jenn even sewed my nieces dress so it fit her properly. She was the master of all things. The day went amazing from 1st look to the cutting of our cake. They made it all so easy for us. I was a ball of nerves and Jenn made it all ok. Haha. Both of our families were telling us both, how wonderful they were. Jack and I knew from the moment we spoke to them, they would not only do a wonderful job, but we would become friends after. We cannot thank you both enough for the stellar job you've done.

Randall de Leon Photography 

5.0

Los Angeles, CA
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,000

Photography has always been a lifelong passion of mine, I picked up my first camera as a gift from my dad when I was 14 years old. Never in a million years would I have thought that my lifelong hobby could eventually become my career. I focused on my future, working my way through college and grad school to achieve my license to practice, but a part of me realized that I wanted to pursue a career that allowed me to go on adventures and meet a lot of new people. So in 2019, I took that risk, changed my hours from full time to part time and put more focus on my photography. I booked my first gig later that year and have never looked back.

We are so grateful to have had Randall as our photographer for both our engagement and wedding day. From start to finish, he was a dream to work with professional, warm, and so thoughtful in his approach. For our engagement session, we wanted to recreate the Japan vibes since we got engaged there, but we weren’t sure how Little Tokyo in Downtown LA would translate in photos. Randall completely exceeded our expectations. Between the Venice Canals and Little Tokyo, he perfectly captured the aesthetic we were hoping for, and the final shots were stunning. On our wedding day, Randall went above and beyond. He made my bridal party feel so at ease his presence was calm, kind, and unobtrusive, which helped all of us relax and enjoy every moment. He captured everything: the big, emotional highlights and all the small, beautiful in-between moments. Now we have a gallery full of memories that we’ll treasure forever. If you’re looking for a photographer who is incredibly talented, easy to work with, and genuinely cares about delivering your vision: Randall is it!!! We couldn’t be happier!

About wedding photographers

How much does a wedding photographer cost?

Wedding photographers early in their careers can cost as little as $1,500. Super experienced photographers, as seen in magazines like Vogue and Vanity Fair, can cost upwards of $30,000. The range is wide, but, in general, you can expect to spend around 10% of your budget on wedding photography. Rates also vary based on wedding length, the services you want, and location. A photographer based in an area with a lower cost of living, for example, will be less than one based in New York or San Francisco.

How much should we tip our wedding photographer?

A good rule of thumb is to tip 10% of their rate, or at least $100. If they’re bringing second photographers or assistants, an additional $50 to $75 per person is an appropriate and nice gesture.

What questions should we ask wedding photographers?

Aside from logistical questions about packages, pricing, and availability, it’s also important to use your conversation to get a sense of their personality. This person will be with you and your loved ones every step of your wedding day, including, if you want, in the dressing room! It’s very important that you and your partner both feel comfortable with them and their working style. Talk about your venue, how you want to feel when you look at your photos, and which photos from their portfolio you like best.
