About

Jeffrey Foote Photography is based in New York's Finger Lakes region, serving couples throughout Central New York and beyond. Jeffrey's style blends editorial, photojournalistic, and modern storytelling to create authentic, timeless images.

His passion for photography developed while living in lower Manhattan, where he worked alongside editorial, fashion, photojournalism, and still-life photographers whose work appeared in Vogue, Cosmopolitan, Interview, Real Simple, and Self magazines. That experience continues to shape his approach to wedding photography.

Our goal is to create a relaxed, enjoyable experience that allows you to be yourselves while we capture genuine emotions, meaningful connections, and the moments that naturally unfold.

When a second photographer is included, Jeffrey works with experienced professionals, not beginners or hobbyists. His associate photographers each have more than 20 years of professional photography experience, ensuring the same consistent quality while providing additional coverage and creative perspectives.

Every delivered image is individually edited and professionally retouched when needed, then provided in high and low resolution on a deluxe USB drive in a jewel-style case with full printing rights.

Member: Professional Photographers of America (PPA).

We loved Jeffrey and Gary!

Jeffrey and Gary were absolutely fantastic to work with, and they made a great team! They are experienced, knowledgeable, friendly, and so much fun! They were easy to reach and quick to respond. They met with us early on in our wedding season to get to know us and our plans for the wedding. They had a well-organized and streamlined process for day-of planning and timeline management, but there was enough breathing room to accommodate our requests. They were with me in the bridal suite and I can’t believe how many pictures they managed to take because I barely noticed they were there. The same goes for our ceremony – we got married in an Eastern Orthodox Church, which is different from a typical western wedding ceremony, and they did a great job capturing all the notable moments without being obtrusive. Our family had a lot of fun shooting our formals, and this is where Jeffrey and Gary’s teamwork really shined. They continued to do a great job throughout the reception and our friends and family loved them. A close friend of mine loved them so much, she dragged Gary to our photobooth (a great sport). The photos we received were stunning and we can’t figure out how best to display them, as we don’t have enough wall space to hang every single one! These guys are the real deal and an absolute pleasure to work with; we couldn’t recommend them enough.

Beautiful photos & easy to work with!

Our wedding photos came out so beautiful - we couldn't be happier! Jeffrey was very easy to work with from start to finish and was thorough in his work (taking shots of details, guest portraits, etc.). Jeffrey responds quickly and gave us our wedding pictures very fast as well. We highly recommend Jeffrey Foote Photography!

They Felt Like Family and Captured Every Magical Moment!

We truly couldn’t have asked for a more incredible wedding photography team! Start to finish, Jeffrey and Gary made everything seamless, professional, and genuinely enjoyable ~ from meeting Jeffrey for our engagement shoot to having Gary join in for our best day!

Both arrived early, ready for the day ahead, and were there for every single moment ~ never missing a beat. Jeffrey had such a calming presence throughout the day, which made a huge difference in those busy, emotional moments. And Gary brought the perfect balance of humor and energy—keeping us, our wedding party, families, and guests laughing while easing any nerves along the way.

They both made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera, which is no small feat. Nothing ever felt forced or awkward ~ just natural, relaxed, and truly us. By the end of the day, they didn’t just feel like vendors ~ they felt like family.

Jeffrey and Gary captured every detail so beautifully ~ from the big, emotional highlights to the small, candid moments we didn’t even realize were happening.

When we received our photos, we were absolutely blown away. Every image tells a story, and together they perfectly reflect the joy, love, and energy of our day. The quality, lighting, and composition are simply stunning, and they worked diligently to capture every requested photo ~ we will treasure these memories forever.

Not only is their talent unmatched, but their passion and dedication truly shine through in their work. If you’re looking for a team who will go above and beyond ~ and make the entire experience fun and memorable ~ look no further. We feel so lucky to have had them as part of our celebration! (And the only thing we regret is not grabbing a selfie with them by the end of the night!)

10/10/25 wedding

Jeffrey was such a delight to work with! Even when our engagement shoot turned into a rain shoot, he always stayed positive and brought light to the situation. He is always professional and answers any and all questions in a timely manner. We had the pleasure of having 2 shooters for our wedding and the addition of Gary is a must! They work together seamlessly adding humor to the day and ensuring every angle is covered. Im obsessed with my photos! I cannot recommend him enough!

Spectacular work!

Jeffrey Foote went above and beyond for our wedding day! He made us feel relaxed and never rushed us. His communication and professionalism were some of the best I've experienced with any vendor, while also being friendly and calming. You can see that he truly cares about his clients and has a remarkable passion for photography. His creative eye brings a unique touch, while still capturing natural photos that don't feel staged. I can not even count the number of compliments we have received on his work. If we ever need a photographer for an event again, we will undoubtedly reach out to Jeffrey again. Absolutely gorgeous and stunning work! Thank you!

I first met Jeffrey at a wedding we were both working on. I was the florist, he the photographer. The bridal room was pretty much chaos with a brunch being served, hair and make-up being applied to the bride and all the bridal party members, moms, grandmas, and siblings. Jeffrey was cool as a cucumber, incredibly professional and worked the room seamlessly. He was unobtrusive yet did what he needed to do to get the best photos. I highly recommend working with Jeffrey Foote Photography for your wedding.
