Keith Ferris Photo

Keith was one of the best choices my husband and I made for our wedding day! Keith had been the photographer for my sister's wedding in 2016 and she had nothing but great things to say about her experience, so my husband and I immediately decided to hire Keith. Keith was responsive, professional, and made my husband and I feel completely at ease while being photographed. We explained to Keith what style of pictures we were looking for and he made sure to listen to what we wanted. Additionally, we had our pictures less than a week after our wedding! I couldn't recommend Keith more!

I can't quite put into words how grateful my husband and I are that Keith Ferris photographed and documented our wedding July 10, 2021. With so many challenges and variables due to the pandemic, Keith was the confidence, professionalism, and awesomeness that we needed. I spoke to him on the phone a few times before the wedding and closer to the date my now husband and I had a Zoom meeting with him. He was so on top of everything and had a calming confidence to him. He has years and years of experience, knows exactly what he's doing but is also constantly listening to us and what we wanted and liked. He is the epitome of professionalism but also incredible friendliness and kindness.

The day of the wedding, Keith was everywhere all at once. I don't know how he did it. Our wedding had multiple hangout locations, the dining area, the dancefloor, a lounge on the deck, a firepit in the yard -- he somehow managed to be in all places and documented everything! We were so thrilled when he sent us our amazing gallery a week after our wedding! We were on our honeymoon when we got them and stopped everything we were doing for a while and got lost revisiting the happiness that was our wedding, thanks to Keith.

If you are thinking of booking Keith for your wedding or any special event, I can't recommend him enough. It's also worth noting that I'm a bit camera shy and am not one who normally posts photos of myself or does portraits but working with him was so organic and fun! Thank you, Keith, for giving us photos we will enjoy and treasure for the rest of our lives.

Keith is such a lovely guy, and a total professional. He is easy to work with, open to ideas, and can run the show so it all goes seamlessly. His pictures are gorgeous, and he delivered them FAST after our wedding. We couldn't be happier with our choice to hire him.

Keith was fantastic to work with right from the start (and from a distance, as we live in NC). He was a consummate professional; we knew he was the right choice for Mohonk Mountain House (New Paltz, NY) and we were in good hands the minute we saw his beautiful style. He worked well with our family, even managing my little - very tried (!!) - 3 year old niece/flower girl. During our ceremony, we actually didn't even notice Keith there, but he clearly was, as evidenced by the photos later. We can't say enough "thank you's" for capturing our wedding so beautifully! We appreciate your work, Keith, and thank you so much.

Keith hiked out with us to Little Stoney Point equipment and all in the snow. We were able to get such a great backdrop! Thanks, Keith. We loved working with you. You're a trouper!

Keith was an absolute dream to work with. Keith was timely, friendly, and professional with everything from first touching base to see if we "jived, to finalizing a timeline the week before our wedding. Keith has a way of putting you at ease, even if you are not typically comfortable in front of the camera! He made us and our families and bridal parties feel extremely comfortable for the entirety of our wedding photography. Keith was also extremely responsive, fairly priced, and honest with his professional opinion in terms of locations, lighting, etc. for the photography itself. Every suggestion he made turned into a beautiful photograph. Bonus points for being an allied photographer for our same-sex wedding. We can't say it enough - thank you, Keith! We'd work with you again in a heartbeat!

We loved working with Keith! He was great to work with - extremely responsive, professional, and with a great sense of humor - from the day we first reached out to him to our wedding day itself and after, when our album became available. Part of the reason we chose Keith as our wedding photographer was because of his experience shooting weddings at our venue, and the final photos showcase not only us and our loved ones, but the beauty of the venue, which is exactly what we wanted. Keith and his assistant captured every perfect moment of our day, and then some. His photojournalist style was ideal for our day - I barely noticed he was there most of the time, which is a good thing for a wedding photographer. His pricing was very fair, also! If you're having a Hudson Valley wedding, Keith is definitely the best out there.

It's hard to put into words what makes the photos Keith takes of weddings so beautiful. Somehow, when he takes photos they come out both "candid" and perfectly posed, something we hadn't seen any other photographer do. While this was the first reason we chose him, what we ended up with was a wedding photographer who not only took fantastic pictures, but who went above and beyond to making sure that our special day ran smooth.

From wrangling up family members, to making sure we hit all the special shots, to even getting some perfectly framed photos we didn't even know we wanted, Keith is that special blend of commercial photographer, artist, and detail-oriented professional who you want at your wedding. From the moment we spoke with him, we felt comfortable and sure that he understood what we were looking for.

And ya know what? We weren't wrong.

Great to work with! Keith was understanding of what we were looking for in pictures and we loved the final product. There wasn't a long wait to see our wedding pictures, which was an added bonus!

Keith recently shot both our engagement photos in the Hudson Valley as well as our wedding photos in New York City and we could not be happier with the results! We particularly loved his aesthetic which is reminiscent of photojournalism. None of the photos seem forced or overly-posed. We found him very responsive and easy to work with and he even jumped in to help when I had trouble with the zipper on my wedding dress! If you're looking for top-notch photography, I would highly recommend Keith's services.

My husband and I booked Keith for our wedding in July 2016 and we were so happy we did! Keith is a great photographer, to start, but is also very easy to work with. He is very personable, friendly, and communicative (but not overwhelming). Our wedding photos are fantastic and in addition to the portraits he was able to capture some really awesome dance floor shots. We couldn't have been happier and would recommend Keith in a heartbeat!

Keith Ferris is amazingly talented, whose presence only adds to the joy of the party. We have so many great photos to remember our special day thanks to Keith. Highly recommend!!!

Keith was extremely professional and was a great choice for our wedding photography!

Living in NYC we decided we wanted to get married overlooking the beautiful Catskills and wanted to use local vendors, I actually heard of Keith Ferris from a friend of mine who knew of him from SUNY New Paltz. I knew he was right for us after looking at the website. Immediately you can see Keith does not just point the camera and click, he has a real artistic eye. The pictures were absolutely beautiful, he knows the area so well and managed to capture the beauty of the surroundings while also getting all of our guests. In particular the night time dancing, which some photographers will make look like any person with a camera snapping shots at a party, he was able to make those pictures artistic. I would highly recommend using Keith for your wedding, after all when its over you have the memories and the pictures, and they should be the best! A general when you work with any photographer, make sure to give a lot of direction as to who you would like in the pictures, otherwise you will end up with more pictures of your mother in law then you ever wanted...

My husband had worked with Keith in the past, so we asked Keith to be our photographer right away without talking to any anyone else. I was a little wary because I had never met him before, but he was the perfect choice to capture our wedding day. He caught some amazing moments that I didn’t even know he was there for! The pictures stunning and I have so many favorites (he didn’t ask us to do any of the cheesy poses I see on Pinterest all the time, either). I can’t imagine how we’ll be able to narrow them down to put in an album. I am super impressed by how well he shot the awesome dance party we had at the reception. Keith is so talented and I recommend him to everyone. Thanks, Keith!
