About

Perskie Photographics & Design

For over 120 years, our family owned and operated studio has been serving locally. We love what we do! Throughout the process, we are there assisting the bride. This is a privilege to capture such memories and that is why we still do it today!

Jay Perskie continually trains our small and experienced staff. We bring new ideas for poses and shots so that each bride receives something fresh!

Our designer creates the album from the bride's handpicked photographs. Using cutting edge technology enables us to be inventive with our designs. We make the albums right here in our photo lab and because we do not outsource, we offer our clients excellent value. We make unique albums that tell the story of the bride and groom.

Tips and Advice
Some tips to consider for a better Wedding Day Photos From Perskie Photographics:

1.) Avoid wearing oil based makeup as they will tend to product hot spots that can cause a glare.

2.) Don’t use a new hair style that you have not seen, evaluated, and are sure of before your big day.

3.) Allow yourself extra time to get ready.  A late start makes for a hectic day and can rob you of enjoyment on this most special day.

4.) We are your for the day, let your photographer know ANYTHING that you may want!

5.) Relax & Enjoy! Don’t fret the details.
