Five stars isn’t enough!!

Hope is a dream! Her bubbly, positive energy made us feel instantly comfortable, and the photos she captured are beyond stunning. She went above and beyond from start to finish—helping with details, keeping us calm, and somehow catching every perfect moment. We’d give her more than five stars if we could!

Absolutely Amazing!

We couldn’t be happier to have chosen Hope as our photographer for our wedding day in July 2024 on Long Island, NY. The pictures are absolutely breathtaking and perfectly capture the essence of our special day. What truly stood out was Hope’s patience and professionalism— never intrusive, yet always present when needed. With a big (and loud) family, Hope brought such a kind and fun energy to the day, making the experience truly enjoyable and memorable for not only us, but our entire bridal party and family too. Hope provided us with selects just a few days after the wedding and our entire beautiful album just a few weeks following. We are incredibly grateful for Hope’s exceptional work and truly recommend her enough!!

Timeless and Romantic

Hope was wonderful to work with! She made you feel comfortable in front of the camera, and captured timeless moments that we will have and cherish forever. She made sure to pull me away to get those photos I knew I would want to have gotten. Her photos capture the romantic elements of our day and I couldn't have asked for more!

Hope is amazing!

We could not recommend Hope Helmuth Photography more!

Hope's pictures speak for themselves - they are simply amazing and our wedding gallery was everything we could have asked for. Only a few short days after our wedding, Hope provided us with a sneak peak of 40+ photos - we were not expecting to get a preview so soon after the wedding and it was the BEST surprise. We were also able to order and mail out Thank You cards quicker using photos from the sneak peak.

While it is easy to see how beautiful and artistic Hope's photos are from her portfolio, it was Hope's communication and kindness that makes her and her team one of our best vendor choices. For our engagement shoot, Hope helped us find the best spot for photos and used this time to get to know us and our style. The entire process was seamless end to end.

When it came to our wedding day, Hope helped us complete our day-of timeline and had a check-in call with us to make sure she had a list of all of the family/friend photos we wanted to have. Hope and her team did an amazing job making sure we had photos with all of the people we wanted, on top of amazing candid photos. After the wedding, multiple told us how much they loved our photographer!

Wedding planning can be difficult and stressful, but working with Hope made everything easier and never caused any additional stress.

Hope's team combines amazing photographs with amazing communication and assistance. All of our photos were received within 2 months and we loved every single one! I would not hesitate to book with her!

Truly amazing!

Hope was fantastic from start to finish. I got married on 7.9 at The Hamilton Manor but she also photographed my rehearsal dinner! We received all of our edited photos (over 1300!) a few days ago. The turnaround time is incredible. She’s incredibly helpful, her editing is spectacular, and the photos turned out phenomenally! I’m obsessed with how everything turned out and I cannot recommend her enough!

Best experience ever!

I cannot express how much I enjoyed working with Hope. She was so kind, efficient, and an absolute pleasure to work with! She brought such a positive energy to the day and made my husband and I feel so comfortable and at ease. My experience with her was more than I could have ever dreamed of. She captured the day so beautifully and I will be forever grateful! I will be looking at our wedding photos the rest of my life and I know that each time I look at them I will be just as amazed as the first. Please do not hesitate to book Hope Helmuth Photography—I promise you won’t regret it!!

pure magic

This is supposed to be a review, but it might turn into a love letter. We hired Hope for our wedding back in January before we ended up having to postpone. Thankfully, Hope was able to move her contract with us to our new date. Then we decided we still wanted to be legally married in January in addition to our big postponed party in December. Thank goodness we were able to have Hope shoot both weddings. 
I don’t know how to be chill about this: HOPE IS IT. She is talented beyond measure, kind and sweet as can be, and incredibly fun to work with. As soon as I found her website, I knew I had to book her. She was the very first vendor we booked, and she’s been on this long multi-wedding journey with us, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. She and her whole team have so much experience, boundless creativity and artistry, and they LOVE what they do. That’s the best part. It is so clear that Hope loves Love, and loves capturing it and showcasing it at its most beautiful and magical moments. That’s the word for Hope - Magic. Book her, and then be prepared to weep with joy when you see how well she captures your blissful magical day. And for everyone to talk about how amazing your photos are, constantly. Truly, and without a bit of hesitation, we recommend Hope 100% times infinity. Love you Hope!

So kind and talented!

From the start, Hope was responsive and kind. We had an original date in July 2020 and she let us postpone without any change in cost—she was so flexible. Day of, Hope was so much fun to work with and she's a machine! If you give her a list she will get EVERY shot and more! She's so efficient and talented... I can't believe the quality of our photos at that speed, it's wild. She was running around finding the light while we were on a clock to get it all done and enjoy some of our cocktail hour. Our photos are gorgeous and we have so much to choose from. So nice working with Hope and team! Amazing work :)
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
