Welcome!
I am Lisa Nicolosi, a Long Island wedding photographer specializing in weddings and family portraits. I serve the entire New York Tri-State area: New York City (including all 5 boroughs), New Jersey, Connecticut as well as Upstate New York. I typically shoot on Eastern End of Long Island: The North Fork, The Hamptons, Shelter Island and Montauk. And I am also available to travel to your location and destination.
Why should you hire me to photograph your wedding?
My Experience
- I have over 15 years of experience photographing weddings in a myriad of venues, scenarios and timelines etc. And weddings can be unpredictable – no two are alike. As a seasoned professional I have the experience to manage and produce consistent results in any situation.
- BA Degree in Fine Art: With a keen eye, I treat documenting weddings as an art form. Using: composition, space, color, line, angles and dramatic light to create artful images.
- Lighting Techniques: Lighting is of utmost importance. I am skilled in both natural and off camera lighting. Lighting skills allow me to elevate my client’s images with great impact and beauty – thus handling even the most challenging environments.
My Approach
I like to describe my approach as “Artistic Storytelling”
In an unobtrusive manner I will document your wedding day with an observant eye and a sentimental heart. Capturing moments, reactions and details that are unique to your wedding with an artistic flair.
Preserving the love, beauty, emotions and scenes surrounding your event. Allowing you to actually enjoy your day, so that you forget that I am even there.
Reliving it all after I deliver your gallery.
If possible, I like to get to know my clients before their wedding; whether it be through a personal meeting, phone calls, engagement session or emails.
My Style
Natural ~ Romantic ~ Colorful…
These are just a few words that describe my work.
Natural: Capturing the spirit of my clients for who they really are.
Their personality, expressions, nuances and connections.
Whether I am documenting moments or posing portraits my goal is to create natural/ honest images that reflect the essence of who you are and your relationship to one another.
Romantic: Many times, clients have told me that they have laughed or cried looking at my images and blogs without even knowing anyone in them. It is my desire to not only preserve how your day looked, but how it felt.
Colorful: Life is colorful. Seasons are colorful. I want to showcase that beauty. I love the impact of color and rich tones. Weddings are happy occasions and I will deliver clean and colorful images. I do not slap homogenized filters over my photos making them all look the same or washed out. After your wedding I will hand edit and tone your photographs using my artisan edits so that your images truly shine. I do not follow trends that desaturate color that will be outdated in the years to come.
I am Committed to Outstanding Customer Service
