Kent's the best

Kent's photos are fantastic!! We're looking at them, reliving our wedding and it feels like we're right there again. :) He was supremely professional, discreet, and a joy to work with. Both the portraits and action shots are perfect; they capture the energy, colors, mood, music, and love. He's the best.

I had to reschedule our engagement photo shoot because I got the flu. Kent was very flexible and understanding and we were able to reschedule only a few weeks later. He had great ideas as to what he wanted in our engagement photos with regards to time of day for lighting as well as different scenery. We have gotten many compliments on our photos. We would have booked him for our wedding if it weren't a destination wedding.

Ok, so I only got married once so I can't say I've tried other wedding photographers, but I think we had the best wedding photographer in the world.

Kent Meister was an amazing photographer first and foremost for his skill and style, and the completeness with which he captured every moment of our wedding. But he and his wife Morgan (who acted as his assistant at the event) are also both really nice people who are fun to be around. Kent is extremely organized, responsive, and totally on top of everything from the moment we first got in touch with him through to post-wedding photos and support.

We picked Kent as our photographer because we really liked the photos from a previous wedding he did --- just looking at the photos of these people we didn't know, we felt like we knew what the wedding FELT like. It felt warm and genuine and full of love, and like it didn't take itself too seriously. His style is documentary and he looks for candid shots of people being themselves. We found at our wedding that he completely melts into the background and, other than for portraits, I never knew when he was around.

Our wedding was wonderful. There was so much celebratory joy, people coming together and sharing stories, laughing, and dancing. Kent captured the feeling of all of it with a combination of great candid portraits of wedding guests and party, photos to show the overall venue and details, and well-planned and organized portraits for the bride and groom, the wedding party, and family.

He takes a lot of photos. I think we had somewhere between 800-1000 shots from the wedding, which was only a 6-hour engagement for him.

I just put together wedding albums to send to family, and everyone has been gushing over them and congratulating us on finding such an awesome photographer.

I hope Kent is hugely successful and becomes the premier wedding photographer in Brooklyn (where our wedding was) and New York City.

Kent shot our wedding and engagement photos, and while I'm still waiting for all of my wedding photos, the ones he's sent so far have been incredible! We are so happy with our photos.

My husband and I aren't really into taking photos, but Kent made us super comfortable during the e-shoot, and during the wedding, we didn't know he was around at all!

As much fun as a photographer is, all couples care about the results, and Kent really delivers! Our wedding was on a farm with beeeeautiful surroundings, and Kent managed to not only capture the beauty of the farm, but enhanced it! I wish I could post a picture here to show what I'm talking about.

We told Kent we weren't into the cheezy photos, and we took very few during the wedding. He just knew what we wanted and delivered! I can't wait to see the rest of our photos!

One other thing - photographer was the hardest decision for us and we interviewed so many. Kent's quality was head and shoulders above the ones we saw, while his prices were lower. It was a no-brainer.

I would highly, highly recommend Kent!

Photographer extraordinaire and all around super nice guy. We were extremely pleased with how the photos of our event came out. During our initial meeting, we discussed logistics such as locations and shot lists and also got to know a little about Kent and how he got into photography. At our wedding events, Kent was the consummate pro, taking everything from family portraits to candids, with a friendly smile. His lovely wife Morgan was a great assistant, keeping everyone on track and on schedule. Kent will hang off railings and jump over fences to make you look good. Plus he has a kick-ass camera holster.



Highly recommended!

We were lucky to have Kent Meister Photography shoot our wedding in Asheville, North Carolina. Though he's based in Brooklyn, he was most willing to make the trip. This was important to us, because we knew that Kent would catch all of our wedding's meaningful moments, but also provide the sort of artist's eye that would seek out and find the special, unexpected, unique moments as well. He did this, and went beyond the call of duty, remaining close to the events, both ceremony and reception, staying late and constantly clicking away. Kent has great skill and he's an extremely relaxed presence (nice to have on a frenetic day), but it's also clear that Kent loves what he does. It's not just a business, but a passion. Yours will not just be "another wedding" the photographer shoots in a season. Kent will discover and capture what makes the couple, the place, and the story special.

Kent was an absolute pleasure to work with! We found his service through the wedding websites and set up a meeting - Kent is very professional and passionate about photography - we got a great vibe and his website speaks for itself! We really wanted our pictures to have a candid feel, while capturing the excitement of the day - Kent understood our angle and made the process easy and enjoyable.

Prior to our wedding Kent took the time to meet with us at Gantry State Park, where we were taking pictures before the wedding, to scout out the location and help us secure a park permit. He was always reachable and quick to respond to any questions or concerns we had leading up to the wedding and after.

We couldn't be happier with the pictures - they are stunning and the quality is amazing! Highly recommend!

We loved working with Kent on our wedding day. He took amazing pictures of us when we didn't even know he was shooting!

Kent went above and beyond, and beautifully captured some of the best moments of our lives!
Kent came recommended to us by a friend who had used him for his own wedding. We met with him once to discuss what photographs we were hoping to get. He took time to visit our venue prior to the wedding day to make sure he had everything he needed to get the best pictures. Trying to manage a wedding party and all the family can be a nightmare for a photographer, but he handled it with ease and made us all feel very comfortable.
Kent used our beautiful church and unique location near Washington Square Park to set up some really artistic and original shots (his wife held back the traffic so our wedding party could "strut" down the street - Awesome!).

He is a True Professional, gave us some stunning photos, is very flexible, and a joy to work with.

If you are getting married in New York City, looking for great value, professional service, and truly beautiful photos that artistically incorporate your location - get in touch with Kent!

We used Kent for both our Engagement & Wedding Photos. He did such a wonderful job, & makes you feel very comfortable. He did a walk through of our venue with us about a month before the wedding & was always reachable by email. He was able to capture all the little details we had put into the wedding & lots of candids. The pictures are truly wonderful & he is such a nice guy! His wife was also a great help & super sweet. If you want to feel like you are in good hands & with someone who genuinely cares about you & your special day, go with Kent!!!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
