I am Alina, a wedding photographer in NYC but will travel anywhere for love! I am a lover of hiking, reading, freshly baked croissants, and honey-lavender latte. I am getting fueled and inspired by beautiful sunsets and amazing people that I meet along the way!
My photography journey started more than 6 years ago. Today the magic and joy of what I do are more alive than ever. The reason I love photography is simple – I love people and I am passionate about capturing genuine emotions and telling the world unique love stories.
I have always sought to create naturally beautiful, editorial feeling images full of soul and connection. I love to combine natural-looking poses with candid in-between moments to give you photos that have that timeless lifestyle vibe. My goal is to put you at ease and make the photoshoot experience as stress-free as possible, to capture not only what is pretty, but also what is real: love, connection, laughter & those little fleeting moments.

7 Reviews for Alina Delfino
From my very first call with Alina, she was organized, attentive, and incredibly on top of everything. When we had our engagement shoot, I was honestly pretty nervous. My husband and I can both be a little awkward when we’re in front of a camera. Alina immediately made us feel comfortable and completely at ease, and she was able to capture such genuine, beautiful photos of us.
On our wedding day, Alina went above and beyond. We had a slight delay in our timeline due to some behind-the-scenes dress issues, but she was incredibly patient, caring, and calm throughout it all. She stayed on top of everything and everyone, while also making sure she was capturing the moments she knew would be especially important to us.
My dad had passed away, and we had incorporated little pieces of memorabilia and photos of him throughout our wedding day to keep him close and make him a part of the celebration. Alina noticed those details and captured them in such a thoughtful and intentional way. She found ways to photograph those memories that we never would have thought of ourselves, and those images ended up meaning so much to us. It was such a beautiful reminder that she wasn’t just taking pictures of our wedding — she was paying attention to the people, memories, and emotions that made the day so special to us.
Alina and her assistant also paid such close attention to my Pinterest board, and they brought so many creative and unique ideas to life. Some of the poses and shots they came up with ended up being some of our absolute favorite photos!
We received our sneak peek less than a week after the wedding, which was such an exciting surprise. Not only did Alina deliver incredible photos that allow us to completely relive our wedding day, but she also went the extra mile and created a special collection of vintage-style photos for me because she knew how much I wanted that aesthetic. It was such a thoughtful touch and something I will always appreciate.
Even after receiving our gallery, Alina has continued to be incredibly kind, responsive, and patient as I’ve asked about a few additional shots and very minor revisions. She has truly been a dream to work with from start to finish.
She made our wedding look like it belonged in a fall wedding magazine, and somehow captured not only how beautiful the day was, but also how it felt. She is incredibly easy to work with, timely with communication, creative, attentive to detail, and one of the sweetest vendors we worked with throughout our entire wedding process.
My only regret is that we didn’t hire her husband for videography as well! At the time, I thought it was outside of our budget, and looking back, I absolutely wish we had made it work.
I truly cannot recommend Alina enough. If you’re considering hiring her, do it — you will not regret it!
We took our photos in Central Park with the cherry blossoms, so you can imagine how busy it was. She was able to pull us out of the chaos to focus on our photos. We also brought a 4-month old puppy and she was able to make a brilliant shot happen. I’m so grateful to have worked with Alina and cannot recommend her enough!
