How soon do we get the wedding photos?

Your full gallery of 200+ edited high-resolution images is ready within one month of your wedding. It lives in a private online gallery you keep for one year, with unlimited hi-res downloads.

How many photos are included?

At least 200 edited high-resolution images, and often more depending on the day. Every image is individually color-corrected and finished for one consistent editorial look, not just exported straight off the camera.

Is 6 hours of wedding coverage enough?

For many weddings, yes. Six hours covers getting ready, the ceremony, portraits, and the start of the reception with the first dances and toasts. If you have a large reception, a first look plus multiple venues, or a late-night send-off, our 8 and 10 hour photo packages give you the full day.

Can we add hours, a second photographer, or an engagement shoot?

Yes. Extra coverage hours, a second photographer, and a pre-wedding or engagement shoot can all be added. Message us with your timeline and we will quote the options for your day.

Do you also offer video with the wedding photos?

Yes. If you want photo and film together, book Beneath the Veil, which puts a photographer and a videographer on your day as one team. For film only, see our Whispered Vows video package.

Do you travel outside NYC for weddings?

Yes. We photograph weddings across New York State, from the Hudson Valley to Long Island and upstate. Tell us your venue and we will confirm travel when you reach out.

About the First Light NYC Wedding Photo Package

Six hours of photography with one photographer, built for a micro or intimate wedding in New York. You receive 200+ edited high-resolution images in a private gallery for a year, with unlimited downloads and all retouching done in house. Six hours covers the ceremony, portraits, and a solid part of the reception — the shape of most small and intimate weddings, where the day happens in one venue and the guest list is short. It sits between elopement coverage and a full wedding day. Best for: micro and intimate weddings, small guest counts in a single venue, and couples who want full ceremony-to-reception photography without a ten-hour timeline.

Yes. Family groupings and must-have shots are agreed before the day, and we build a realistic portrait window into the timeline so the formal photos never squeeze out the candid ones.
Our direction is calm and simple. We guide you through easy movements, keep the set relaxed and step back when the real moment starts. Couples who called themselves camera-shy are often the ones most surprised by their gallery.
Yes. Medium-format film on a Hasselblad 503 can be added to your coverage, and we also shoot Super 8 motion film. Both carry grain and warmth that digital filters cannot copy.
