About

I’m a morning person with a firm belief that “The Wire” is the best TV Show ever made, “Apocalypse Now” the best movie ever made, and ribeye the best cut of beef ever discovered. I’m blessed to say that my passion in life is my career. I’m a documentary photographer based in New York covering weddings in the tri-state area, nationwide, and around the world. I’m honored to be a part of the Wedding Photojournalist Association as a Top 10 Contest Winner and to have had my work published in local and national newspapers such as the Wall Street Journal. I've also done documentary work for great organizations like Restore NYC, to KIPP NYC Charter Schools. This past May, my documentary work in the South Bronx was featured in a gallery in New York City by the Coalition for Asian American Children and Families .

Feel free to contact me for any questions about me, my work, availability, and pricing.

Reviews of Minnow Park

The Very Best

Minnow himself is such a delight. From our first call with him to staying beyond our contracted time at our reception, Minnow displayed such enthusiasm and congeniality. We were very comfortable with him and Martin throughout the entirety of the wedding day, and furthermore, enjoyed their company. His creative direction and experience shined through in the photos he captured and we are so pleased with the photos we’ve already seen, and can’t wait to see the full album. He had great direction and suggestions about locations and concepts for photo opportunities in addition to incorporating our preferences. Highly recommend as a wedding photographer, and we hope to use him for special events in the future!

Brilliant photographer!

I could not recommend Minnow Park more highly to photograph your wedding! Both for the stunning quality of the photos we received and his warm and professional demeanor on the day of our wedding and through the planning process, I truly can’t imagine anyone better.

Minnow’s photos capture the real feeling of the day. Nothing is staged or stylized, everything looks really natural and true to the moment but also of stunningly beautiful magazine/art-level quality. He is an absolute genius at capturing the emotions and expressions on peoples’ faces, and also gets great shots both of the big picture of the event (he even got a shot of the entire party dancing from up above on a balcony) and the little details like table settings and gorgeous and creative shots of our rings. Even the family/ bridal party portraits had a very natural feel to them.

Furthermore, Minnow is an absolute joy to be around. He genuinely cares about the work he does and absolutely shares the excitement of the couple and their family and friends. I expected to feel awkward being photographed but Minnow made me feel completely at ease with his warm smile and easygoing attitude. I couldn’t believe how quickly and seamlessly our family portraits all went too! He has it down to a science how to switch out the various combinations of family members to capture memorable shots for the future while not interrupting the flow of the day. Those probably took under ten minutes and came out great.

Minnow really went above and beyond—not only in photographing, but when there were moments here and there where we needed some extra logistical help (both on the day of and in planning) he always stepped up, and his extensive experience with weddings and his helpful and caring personality really showed.

Minnow is an incredible artist and I feel so grateful to have his beautiful and thoughtful photos of our wedding for years to come. Could not recommend him more!

We can't praise Minnow enough, he is the best wedding photographer out there! Working with him was a pleasure throughout the entire process. He truly cares about capturing perfect moments for his clients; from candids to portraits. It was an especially windy day during our engagement shoot and Minnow used it to his advantage to create lovely, dramatic photos. On our wedding day, Minnow kept the energy up and everyone excited, even in 90 degree heat! We didn’t even notice him throughout the reception but he caught each and every moment. During our sparkler sendoff, we only had 3 minutes while the sparklers were burning but those photos came out magical! Minnow is a true expert, we treasure our photos and his laugh is infectious.

Minnow Park is the most professional and friendliest photographer ever! He made us feel so comfortable and at ease while taking our engagement photos. He gave us pointers and found the best locations to take our photos that's why all of our photos look so genuine. Our photos were also delivered in a timely manner as well. He's the best photographer in New York City and can't wait to see how our wedding photos will turn out.

We hired Minnow for both our engagement and wedding photos and could not be happier! His unique eye and natural style is what made us hire him, but his friendly personality and his ability to put everyone at ease around him is what really makes us recommend him to friends!

I cannot begin to tell you how gorgeous and special our photos are! We've received so many compliments on them!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
