Highly Recommend!!!

From the very beginning, working with Alessandra was such a wonderful experience. Even though she wasn’t our main photographer, we were able to speak openly with her and her husband about any comments or suggestions we had. Alessandra was always available and willing to chat throughout the entire process, which made planning feel so much easier and more personal.

She sat with us to go over our entire timeline using her detailed planning document and was always open to making changes or additions in the months leading up to our wedding. On the day itself, her two photographers were the perfect addition—grounding, calm, and incredibly kind. They captured everything beautifully, from small intimate moments to the big memories we’ll cherish forever.

Alessandra has also been extremely accommodating, even making changes to our ceremony video without hesitation. Her professionalism, communication, and genuine care shine through in everything she does.

We truly couldn’t recommend her and her team more. Their work is top-notch, aesthetically gorgeous, and perfectly aligned with the trendy, modern style we love. Any bride and groom would be lucky to have them capture their day.

Best Day & Photos Ever!

I did a lot of research before booking a wedding photographer because there were so many options. When I stumbled upon Alessandra Park’s instagram page, I immediately fell in love with her light and airy, yet classic style. She was so responsive from the moment I reached out to her. She didn't get to shoot our engagement photos personally, but she edited them beautifully. When it came to the wedding day, she helped create a detailed timeline when I was stressed about having enough time for photos after our ceremony. She is so sweet, and made us feel so comfortable behind the camera! Her assistant Christina, who was our second photographer, was amazing as well! We just got our photos back and we are absolutely obsessed with them all!! I truly could not have imagined more beautiful wedding photos. We are SO happy that we chose Alessandra and her team to photograph our wedding day- I can't recommend her enough!!!

We love Alessandra

Alessandra came as a recommended vendor from our wedding venue and we couldn't have been luckier to have found the perfect photographer for our special day. While she is based on Long Island, she came to Stamford, CT to do our engagement photo session. It was seeing this dedication so early into working with her that we knew we picked the right one. Planning our timelines was so easy, she was enthusiastic about working with us and making our day as special as possible. She worked seamlessly with our videographer as well. Our entire wedding day went so smoothly and Alessandra worked tirelessly the entire time capturing so many moments. Our wedding day photos came out AMAZING. The quality of the work is spectacular, the turnaround was incredible and we couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. We can't stop going through our entire gallery and we are so grateful for Alessandra. Would recommend her to anyone getting married on Long Island.

Simply the BEST!

Working with Alessandra Parks Photography was truly a dream. From the very first conversation to the final moments of our wedding day, Alessandra made us feel so comfortable and cared for. The photos completely blew us away. Alessandra didn’t just capture what our wedding looked like—she captured what it felt like. Every smile, every happy tear, every little glance between us and our loved ones is preserved so beautifully. Looking through our gallery brings us right back to those moments, and it’s a gift we’ll cherish for the rest of our lives. Alessandra has such a rare talent—not only in her artistry, but also in the way she connects with people and puts you at ease. We are endlessly grateful that she was the one behind the lens on such an important day. If you are looking for a photographer who will give you more than just stunning photos, but a true reflection of your love and your story, you need to book Alessandra Parks Photography.

Run - don't walk to book alessandra

When my wife and I were meeting with photographers, it was very important to us that they understood we were two females and wouldn't pose us in a traditional male/female dynamic. We didn't feel like any photographers we met with (which was a lot lol) fully understood that until we met with Alessandra and Charlie... and my god - she took this and ran with it. There is not a single photo in which we feel either of us looks anything other than exactly how we are. Our photographer was one of the most important vendors for us because photos are one of the only tangible things you get to look back on forever. From our engagement session to our wedding day, every single photo Alessandra took came out absolutely incredible. We received countless compliments (and I mean beyond just “grandma loves them”) people genuinely said our photos should be published in a magazine. Alessandra is not only insanely talented but she’s also super funny, brings all-around good vibes, and is a calming presence on what can be a hectic wedding day. She’s go with the flow yet has a clear vision and executes it perfectly. From the moment we saw our photos, we were completely speechless. Not a single photo that my wife and I don’t love. Cherry on top: 8:30 AM the morning after our wedding, we had an email in our inbox with 60+ photos. If you book Alessandra, you will not regret it.

Wedding Photos - everything I could have imagined

My entire experience with Alessandra was amazing. I knew once I saw photos of her work that she was the person I wanted to photograph my wedding.
She is meticulous at her craft and I felt completely at ease with her every step of the way.
Her "teaser" gallery that she sent over right after the wedding was exquisite and I couldn't wait to see the rest of the gallery! The entire gallery exceeded all of my expectations and I am so happy that I will have these memories for a lifetime.
If you are on the fence about your wedding photographer - reach out to Alessandra, you will NOT be disappointed!

Amazing post wedding photos

Where do I even begin to share how amazing Alessandra was. She worked with us on a post wedding photoshoot on the Brooklyn bridge. She was so easy to work with, quick to respond to emails and even helpful when our plan had to change due to weather. She made it feel just as special as our actual wedding day and her energy, enthusiasm and kindness was incredible. She was easy to talk to and her visions for photos were SO good. When we got the sneak peek and then the full gallery we were so impressed with her work. First of all we look like we are the only people on the Brooklyn bridge, how she managed that I will never know, and the secondly the pictures are absolutely incredible. They are romantic, whimsical and just beautiful. We were honestly a little sad we didn’t find her before our wedding day just because she was so awesome! If you are debating her for your wedding or family shoot, don’t! She is all you could want in a photographer and keeps the day moving with kindness, she would be an amazing addition to your vendor team. Did I mention she woke up to drive from long island to the Brooklyn bridge for a SUNRISE shoot… the dedication is unmatched! Thank you Alessandra we can’t wait to frame these incredible photos and admire them for years to come.

Alessandra Parks Photo- Best vendor for our wedding day!!

They were personable, professional and did an absolute amazing job on my wedding day! I look back at my photos and feel so grateful to have such amazing memories that perfectly encapsulate the day. Personally, I am picky when it comes to seeing pictures of myself- let tell you, there was not a single picture that I saw that made me feel self conscious. For your day, you should feel and look like a bride and this was 1000% reflected in my photos. I am having a hard time picking which photos to choose for my wedding album! From the beginning: We hired them to do our engagement pictures. Since we live in the city, we had a few ideas where we would like our session to be and Alessandra suggested Fort Tryon Park. It was the perfect setting of urban and picturesque. The team made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera and it didn't feel like a chore. My husband and I had all the feels and truly felt at ease. It was such a special day. Of course the photos are amazing and I had a hard time picking the photos for my save the dates because there were so many to choose from. At our wedding day- It rained on our day, right after our ceremony. Once the ceremony was over, we were supposed to bring our family to the lighthouse to take pictures. They quickly pivoted and utilized the church (and the deck) to make sure we had amazing family portraits and made sure we all stayed dry in the process. I would not have ever imagined the results- a true sign of a professional and experienced team. Everyone had smiles on their face- I did not once get stressed or worried that we would not get our family photos. They truly know what they are doing. After the church, the bridal party moved to the second location for bridal party pictures and the sun came out in full force. The photography made sure every single groomsmen had NOTHING in their pockets and made sure everyone was in place and ready to go. I had 12 people in my bridal party- they were able to corral everyone and make sure that we were going to get perfect pictures. I have been in weddings before and sometimes it feels like taking group photos becomes a chore. I know I am biased because this was my wedding, but I do feel like everyone had a good time overall. We also purchased their video package (this is a new offering and 10000% worth it). we are so looking forward to seeing the video once it is ready!
Run (don't walk) to book them for your wedding. Seriously, the best in the business. You will LOVE your photos and will love working with everyone!

Simply Perfect!

Do yourself a favor & book Alessandra Parks Photography for your wedding!!! You will be so incredibly happy & calm throughout the entire process. Alessandra & her team are thorough, detail oriented, and do not miss a beat. My favorite part of the process was going through the shot list before the wedding. She is a true professional and will make sure to capture the perfect photos in a natural and candid way on your big day! Her editing skills are some of the best I have seen. I was in my friend’s bridal party and loved the way Alessandra took & edited the photos and contacted her as soon as my fiancé and I set our wedding date! Even though your wedding day goes so fast you will always have these photos to look back on forever and see every moment! If I could do it all again, I would pick her over & over.
