I interviewed quite a few photographers for my wedding and Natasha immediately stood out in our initial conversations. She was the only photographer who was not only talented, but also had a very positive, calming energy. I really needed that on my big day!
My makeup appointment fell behind schedule and without asking, Natasha assured me that she could improvise and ended up producing the most beautiful shots of my bridal party. All the shots were stunning--she made me look like I wasn't a bridezilla! Having her there was like having an extra maid of honor, so grateful I found her when I did.

From the start, she was accommodating and responsive. The lighting was difficult to shoot, but she managed to capture the day beautifully!
I emailed Natasha after one of my best friends used her for her elopement photos and instantly thought she was the sweetest person ever. We are over the moon for the photos Natasha took for us. They are whimsical and romantic while still capturing our silly side and the icing on the cake is she even got photos of us with our dogs!! We are so happy. Thank you so much!
Natasha captured our day perfectly! She also took all the stress out of planning and made sure we got shots with all the important people in our life. Thank you, Natasha & Brian!
I am a meticulous person...it is a curse and a gift. I needed a photography who could give me more than the "average" and "predictable". The first time I had the pleasure of meeting her i knew I made a business relationship I intend to keep for the rest of my life! She listened to very crazy desire and wish my heart commanded, and when I asked for her opinions and suggestions as a professionalism she knew exactly the kind of look I was aiming for. I was very undecided about the location of where I wanted my photos to be. Ms. Shapiro was the one that suggested where we eventually has the shot and it came out better than I expected. Her ability to work with my busy schedule was very appreciated, as my work schedule can be very unpredictable! She was of course and naturally very punctual, extremely prepared with every thing a professional shot should need. With her exquisite attention to detail I felt SO comfortable getting in front of the lens. ( Besides the usual selfie I am not one to take a lot of phots of myself.) She was able to catch all the emotion and strength I envisioned while also catching those raw candid moments that can not simply be posed or planned. My photos were delivered to me virtually immediately and I almost cried when I saw them. These pictures will grace my parents photo albums, be the center piece of my grandparents shrine decided to their grandchildren's milestones, and will truly be a fantastic way to remember such an important day and time in my life. Whenever I think photography in the future she will be the one allowed to take photos of the most precious and special times in my life!
My husband and I live near NYC, but planned our wedding to take place on the shores of Lake George, where I’ve spent summers since childhood. We knew that setting everything up over a distance would make it all a little trickier. Finding a photographer could’ve been frustrating, but we were fortunate enough to stumble across Natasha’s website. It turned out that she was happy to make the trip upstate to shoot our wedding, and was so easy to work with and accommodating that it really made taking our photos a pleasure. Even my husband, who hates having his picture taken, was thrilled with how amazing they turned out. We can’t recommend Natasha highly enough!
Natasha is such an amazingly talented photographer/artist/person. My fiance and I were sure that we made complete fools of ourselves and looked completely awkward during our engagement and wedding photoshoots but once we received our photos we were shocked at how beautiful they turned out. She quite literally captured the essence of our love. We look forward to working with her in the future for every and any event that we'll need photos for. She is perfection!
I'd like to start by mentioning that I had won my photo shoot with Natasha and therefore she made no money off of her time or skills. With that being said, this women went above and beyond and treated us no different than a paying client. Natasha had suggested a mountain top sunrise shoot. My significant other and I were both a bit skeptical but ended up being beyond happy with the results. Natasha drove through the night to meet us in the Adirondacks, an hour or so before sunrise so we could hike a mountain in the dark during the northern New York fall. In other words it was about 35 degrees. Yikes. I had never done a photo shoot before and was incredibly stiff and uncomfortable. Thank goodness I was working with a professional that coached both my boyfriend and I and by looking at the pictures you'd think we had done this many times. The pictures turned out beautiful and natural with some posed pictures that didn't look at all posed and some super adorable candids. And did I mention Natasha did all of this on only a few hours of sleep? All in all, I was incredibly impressed with not only her skills as a photographer but also her drive to work with her clients and give them more than what they had expected. Thank you Natasha! We will most definitely be using your services again in the future!
I wish Natasha could just follow us around and capture all the special moments in our life!
We got married in Big Indian,NY in February with a super short 4 month engagement in between ( because, why wait?) and were so lucky to have found and landed Natasha!( I literally crossed my fingers when I sent the initial email because I loved her work so much) I was looking for someone a little different than your typical wedding photographer and someone super chill that my (now)husband and I would get along with...TADAAAA! Natasha Shapiro FOR THE WIN! From our first email with Natasha, we knew she was going to be awesome and totally did not disappoint. Our engagement photos were honestly the best Ive ever seen and I was told that by basically everyone that saw them. We initially had planned to just take the photos in a park nearby our home in NJ, but it rained so Natasha had a us choose another date we were free and we had her suggest some places in NYC. We ended up choosing The Highline on a gorgeous BRIGHT sunny morning in December. We hate taking pictures, but Natasha made it painless and was super patient. She really captured us, in our own special silly way. Natasha and Brian totally killed the wedding day( good kill). They were on top of all the pictures we needed to take and even brought a cool hanger for my dress picture( I totally didn't think about it!) Natasha made sure I had water to sip because my mouth was getting so dry from taking pictures before the ceremony AND she carried my lip gloss around all day/night. Not to mention, it was FREEZING outside and Natasha and Brian both championed through the cold so that we could have our gorgeous outdoor photos that we wanted! They also tracked down our Florist who was around the property decorating to get our bouquets on time for pictures. We were so lucky Natasha was our photographer and we have such awesome pictures to remember the most amazing weekend of our lives!...Plus the super awesome bonus engagement shoot ;-)

I highly recommend Natasha Shapiro for wedding photography! She is an absolute GEM. Right from our first conversation, I could tell that she has a very calm, cool, and professional personality, which I honestly cannot stress enough is so important on the big day. Aside from her beautiful photos, this was something that really stood out to me as what set her apart from other photographers I had looked into. We also had an engagement session included in our package, which was great for getting to know her and her second shooter, Brian, ahead of time and getting a sense of what to expect all around. Natasha and Brian felt like 2 friends there on our wedding day, and blended in seamlessly with our guests and bridal party as they captured all of the big moments! Aesthetically, her photography style fit perfectly with our rustic venue and outdoor ceremony. The pictures came out so beautifully, (the lighting in particular was exactly what I was looking for), and we both felt that she and Brian really captured the feeling of the day and all of the character of the small but special moments. I would absolutely work with Natasha again, and definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone to shoot their wedding!
