About

Based in Oneonta, New York, Kickstand Photography is owned and operated by Brent DeLanoy. A professional photographer for over 20 years, he has spent nearly a decade of that time honing his expertise in wedding photography. His style tends toward documentary photography, though he is happy to incorporate other styles to suit couples' preferences. Brent is also a member of Professional Photographers of America and Nikon Professional Services.

Services Offered

Kickstand Photography has been the recipient of awards and recognition. From climbing a mountain for the perfect shot to creating a still-life of wedding rings, Brent enjoys blending disciplines together in his work. By getting to know the couples he works with, Brent can display their love through photography. There is always at least one meeting prior to the event, and the final product is edited to stand the test of time. Customization is possible, whether that's for Victorian weddings and images processed as daguerreotypes or an adventurous wedding showcase. All wedding clients receive a password-protected gallery, and photos can be downloaded directly. Once he has edited your images, Brent will send a USB drive with your photographs in print and web-ready files.

Incredible Photographer

Brent is a true professional who takes pride in his craft and it shows where it matters - in your photos. He did our wedding photos and they came out absolutely amazing! They are all gorgeous photos, but he managed to perfectly capture a very fleeting emotional moment during our ceremony that is now my most cherished photograph.

He is not just another photographer--he is an artist and a director who can get that perfect shot. He knows how to use his equipment, the light, and the environment he walks into to immortalize the beauty of your wedding day. I would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone and I personally wouldn't want to ever hire anyone else.

Absolutely wonderful!!!

We highly recommend using Brent as your wedding photographer! We just got our photos back from our wedding and everything is so beautiful, he is very talented. Our favorite part of our experience with him was on our wedding day when we were clearly getting stressed out by the large number of people swarming us he took us for a few minutes for some shots so that we could take a breather. This also gave us some more alone time throughout the night which we loved. It just goes to show how attentive and worth it his services are. Overall, Brent was timely, professional, friendly, and everything else you would want one of your wedding vendors to be!!!

Brent went above and beyond

Brent was simply phenomenal! He shot both our engagement and wedding and was everything we could have hoped for. He met me at the proposal site and had such a good eye for how to get the perfect shot. He was so friendly and accommodating and made us feel at ease throughout both occasions. We had some uncooperative weather during our wedding, but Brent was quick on his feet to find ways to get perfect photos. He made sure to get all the photos we wanted and suggested so many more we wouldn't have thought of. He is a master of his craft, and we were so lucky to have him!

Wonderful!

We had such a wonderful day with Brent. He fit right in from the moment he got there for the day and he was super accommodating with our wedding party which included 3 amateur photographers lol
We got a good vibe the first time we talked to Brent before we'd made a decision on photographers - and we definitely made the best decision for us. We prioritized candid photos, but got a fantastic mix of family & wedding party photos as well. Brent was happy to accomodate all the photos we wanted to capture and used his artistic style to capture some of our favourite candid shots of friends and family.

Amazing! You need this photographer!

Brent was so fantastic. He listened to everything that I wanted and was able to see our vision for our day. He was so flexible with every change, wish, and desire if possible. Including last minute surprises. What I can't say enough about is the shots that he got were amazing! He captured all the fun, excitement, and special moments in our day. I did not just get pictures, I got the total feeling and joy of my event captured forever.
