Turnquist Collective

I knew I wanted Turnquist to photograph our wedding after my best friend had Rebecca do her maternity and newborn shoots. The photos were so beautiful, there was no question - I had to hire her for my wedding. I reached out to Rebecca before we even set a date and we planned an engagement shoot. A couple weeks later we decide to just jump in and get married the week of Thanksgiving. Rebecca didn’t even flinch and was right on board. We opted for a micro wedding - about 40 guests. Rebecca met with us at our venue to brainstorm, discuss timing, and scope out photo worthy locations a few weeks before the big day. Rebecca is focused and confident in her work - which we really appreciated. She braved ice cold temps and high winds to get absolutely breathtaking photos for us. We received our photos in a timely manner and were speechless at the quality and quantity of material she was able to capture in such a short, “micro wedding” timeframe. Our friends and family have told us they had tears in their eyes reliving the day through the photos. I can’t wait to display her beautiful work in our home because her photographs are truly works of art capturing the emotion of the day. Also shoutout to Jesse for making it easy to access our contract and view and pay our invoice! So thankful we chose Turnquist to capture our wedding day and we look forward to working with them again in the future!

If you’re looking for a smooth, hassle free experience with professionals and outstanding photos, look no further. Rebecca and Jesse are simply the best. Their creativity, and eye are truly unique and exactly what we were looking for. Their commitments were always met, they captured our day exactly as expected. We cannot express our thanks enough.

I can not recommend Turnquist enough!! If you are on the fence..JUST DO IT! Jesse and Rebecca are the two most compassionate caring people and truly want to make sure your wedding photos are exactly what you want. I plan on using them for all our photography needs even though our wedding was this past July! They made it through postponing AND helping us find a whole new venue AND a date with us. They are simply the best and no photographers in the Hudson Valley can compare. 15/10 recommend!!!!

The Turnquists are the best! We couldn’t have ask for a better duo to photograph and film our wedding. They shot our engagement photos, micro-wedding ceremony and our larger wedding reception. All sets of photos so nicely captured every emotion we (and our family and friends) felt on those special days. Rebecca and Jesse are extremely professional, but they made the process of taking hours of photos so fun and easy! Their passion and dedication for what they do is so evident. Rebecca literally laid on the ground throwing my veil in the wind to make sure we got the perfect shot! We will definitely be reaching out to the Turnquists to shoot any other important events we have in our future. I could not recommend them enough!

Look no further, you’ve found the perfect duo of photographer and videographer! Just look at the portfolio on Instagram @turnquistcollective! The photographs did not just capture the raw emotion (which they definitely did), but also everything the way I saw it, the ambience, the feeling, the everything. If you’re on the fence about video, I fully heartily recommend. You will never recall your wedding day quite like a the video does, and it stirs all the emotions of why you are with the person, you are meant to be with, for the rest of your life. The photographs are elevated, well curated, and paint the picture of your day, and the video brings it all to life!

They completed our wedding day and I would absolutely recommend them as a vendor. The husband-wife duo team rocked!!

We are so happy Turnquist Photography was recommended by our day of wedding planner. Our original wedding date was scheduled for May of 2020, which, due to the pandemic, turned into a small civil ceremony on June 5th, 2020. We finally had our wedding reception on June 5th, 2021. Throughout all of this, Rebecca was kind, caring, and attentive. And, in the midst of the pandemic, she came to take photos of our outdoor civil ceremony. Her professional and creative abilities are amazing in that she always had a vision, and captured special moments that might otherwise be forgotten. We so appreciate all she did to make us feel comfortable. We’re excited to see the final gallery for the wedding reception, as the sneak peeks are amazing. Thank you Rebecca, for creating such beautiful forever memories, and being by our side on the journey from the gorgeous engagement photos taken in the fall of 2019, to the abbreviated civil ceremony, to the final joyous reception.

We had a relatively non-traditional wedding and Turnquist worked with us seamlessly. They truly were a joy to have at the wedding and captured the look and feel of our day perfectly. We are so happy with the quality of the photos and we were impressed at every turn with the balance of professionalism and fun. We honestly can’t say enough positive things about Turnquist.

Rebecca and Jesse are a dream team. They immediately put us at ease the morning of our wedding. Rebecca is extremely detail oriented with all of her info gathered prior to the wedding. She also scouts the location and has a complete plan and vision for your wedding. We've only received a few shots (being our wedding was last week)... and every one has brought a tear to our eyes. Personally, Rebecca and Jesse are fun, professional, on point, creative, and sensitive to all of your "day of needs". At first we were not planning on having a video - but after speaking to Rebecca and thinking about it, we agreed. And having Jesse there capturing the moments we couldn't see made it all the more special.

As we all know wedding planning is stressful . Finding a good photographer was one of the most important things for me. Upon our first meeting with Rebecca she put my mind at ease and worked well with my husband and I. She handled our different point of views very well and came up with very good solutions to meet both of our needs. Our photographer Jesse was amazing, my husband and I hate getting pictures taken and he made both of us very comfortable where we actually started to enjoy it. The pictures came out amazing and he made sure we got the pictures we needed while still being able to enjoy our wedding day. I highly recommend them!

The photographer was amazing to work with. She was a pleasure from booking to the actual event. We absolutely love our pictures

​Jesse and Rebecca were beyond amazing. Their contribution to our incredible day (both wedding photos and engagement photos) went way beyond the absolutely beautiful photos they took. Rebecca was so thoughtful and responsive during the entire process, even helping us with design and dress choices for the wedding. During our engagement shoot, which had begun as a very stressful day for a million reasons, Jesse seamlessly turned what could have been a really difficult day into something truly magical. Both she and Jesse felt more like welcome guests than photographers. Their easy manner, effortless professionalism, and depth of experience made the stressful time crunch of staged photos a breeze and their infectious joy banished all wedding jitters. I truthfully could not speak more highly of them both and it was truly one of the best decisions we made.

Rebecca could not have been more pleasant to work with! She made us so comfortable and came up with some beautiful shots that we will always treasure. I super highly recommend her and her team for any of your photo taking needs.

Our friends used Turnquist Photography when they got married upstate. We not only loved their work but also really liked them as people. When it came time for us to get married, while we didn't get married locally to them we knew they would be the perfect match for documenting our day. We weren't wrong. Not only are the photos incredible but they are just really great people. Not only on the day but from our first engagement shoot with Jesse to the days leading up to our wedding our experience was nothing short of amazing. These are the photographers you should go with. 100% best decision we made other then obviously getting married.

Turnquist Photography is an exceptional vendor! Extremely reliable and professional. We received all the photos very quickly and the photos are all stunning! Rebecca captured every little detail from the wedding without me even having to specify what I wanted. I highly recommend Rebecca and Jesse!
