Emily S. Sent on 01/06/2023Do not hesitate to book Celeste for your wedding!!
Celeste was the photographer at one of my best friends wedding in 2019. Since then she has been the photographer at so many of my friends weddings including my own! She makes everything from planning to rounding up family for pictures seem so easy! Your wedding day can be so stressful and Celeste makes everything run so smoothly. Then on top of being so sweet and go with the flow she is insanely talented!! My engagement photos and wedding photos are so beautiful and capture the emotion of the day perfectly! Do not hesitate to book Celeste for your wedding!! -

The absolute best
My husband and I got married last summer and we still talk about how incredible of an experience we had with Celeste! We get complimented regularly on the photos we have. She captured the essence of the day exactly the way we wanted and made us feel so relaxed during portraits! Even my mom and sister still talk about her. We cannot recommend Celeste enough! You get what you pay for and then some. Her energy and work added so much to the day. -

Celeste Hernandez is an excellent and kind photographer
Celeste Hernandez is an excellent photographer. She is a pleasant person to be with and will make you relax on your special day and in front of the camera. She also is a kind and helpful person. We give Celeste our warmest recommendation, she made our day a perfect experience! She takes very beautiful and professional photos! We had some challenges with our wedding date and travel due to covid 19, but she was flexible and we finally got married! -

My husband and I could not recommend Celeste and her team more! She made our wedding day truly fantastic and we wouldn't have wanted any other photographer there. She met with us several times to plan out how we wanted our day to go, she was on time and stuck to the schedule, and went practically unnoticed the whole day while capturing the best photos. She's kind, thoughtful, and an absolute pleasure - we'll be hiring her to capture all our big life milestones. -

Dream wedding photographer!
If you are looking for an incredibly talented, professional, warm and creative wedding photographer then look no further. My husband and I feel so, so lucky to have worked with Celeste for our February 2022 wedding! We initially hired Celeste for our Brooklyn wedding planned for June 2020. After multiple postponements and major changes to our original plans, we settled on a February 2022 wedding in Marietta, GA. Celeste was an absolute gem through all of these changes, always super accommodating and understanding.
Celeste is incredibly talented and shot absolutely gorgeous moments we are so lucky that she captured! She really goes out of her way to ensure a flawless experience. For instance, the day before our wedding, she scoped out the location for our "first look" and organized a shot list of different locations around the square that would make phenomenal backdrops. And they truly were- are now some of our favorite shots!
Celeste is so friendly, warm, and just lovely to work with from start to finish. My sister also hired her for her engagement photos and had an equally superb experience! I look forward to working with Celeste again. Thank you for helping us preserve our wedding day memories so beautifully, Celeste!! -

Amazing Wedding Photography
I love Celeste and I love our wedding photos. When hiring her, I was drawn to the way each wedding portfolio she’d done was different - it was very clear to me that she was able to cater the style to the individual couple.
We loved working with her for our engagement shoot — she made us feel very comfortable and we had a great time laughing and talking with us. And the pictures we got back were gorgeous. When we had to postpone for a year, she was very flexible and and so supportive.
When our wedding day finally came, working with her was amazing. Her second photographer, Drea, was also great. Taking the portraits was so fun and they were sure to get every shot on our shot list. A few days after the wedding, we got our sneak peek and the pictures are incredible. I’m so happy she and Drea were there to capture our special day. -

Bianca C. Sent on 10/10/2021Most amazing experience with a photographer!
My experience with Celeste started with our first phone call. It was so much easier than any other photographer I’d spoken to at that point, I felt like I was talking to a friend on the phone, I was so at ease. Celeste helped me break down what I would need for the day (hours of photography, how many photographers, photo album) and I never felt pressured into anything I didn’t need. The questionnaire I filled out leading up to the wedding was so detailed and helpful to go over with Celeste so she knew exactly what / who was important to capture on the big day. Celeste arrived while I was getting ready and was instantly so easy to speak to and work with, she captured all the important little details early on. I felt so at ease in front of the camera, everything felt so natural & nothing was overly staged. My husband is someone who does not like having his picture taken at all in general and felt so comfortable in front of the camera. Celeste was able to get all the shots off of our shot list & captured so many special moments with myself, my husband, our son, families, and friends. Throughout the night any time I went to look for Celeste to capture a certain moment she was already there, getting it. Celeste was so on top of everything, making sure she captured every special moment. I honestly couldn’t have imagined a better experience with a photographer. Celeste was so easy to talk to, so professional, and just such a nice person, it was a pleasure to have her as part of my special day. To top it all off her work is amazing, the photos I’ve seen so far are really great and something that my husband and I will cherish for a lifetime. If you’re looking for a photographer look no further, Celeste is amazing & I can’t recommend her enough! -

Michelle Sent on 04/15/2021Would love to a photoshoot with her again!
Celeste was such a pleasure to plan with and spend the afternoon with. I reached out to her maybe a few weeks before our photoshoot and she was helpful, responsive, energetic from point A to Z. Keep in mind our photo shoot day was windy and freezing, the only thing that kept me and my fiance going was Celeste's fun and encouraging energy. She was SUCH a trooper being out there with us. The photos? Amazing! She listened, took stock of the inspo photos I sent and I will cherish these pictures. 10/10 will book her again. -

Able C. Sent on 11/11/2019One of the best Photographers in NYC! Highly recommended!
From the moment we saw Celeste’s work on her site (https://www.celestehernandez.com/), we knew we HAD to have her photograph our wedding. Her quality style photos were just stunning, the natural style and unposed pictures we just fell in love with.
From the minute we met Celeste, we felt comfort, transparency and overall joy. She is so friendly and approachable and we knew she would blend into our wedding effortlessly. For months up to the wedding, she stayed in touch and when it came to the day it felt like we’d known her for years! During the day she was like a ninja! You never saw her but she was everywhere! From the complimentary engagement photos, to the day of our wedding, Celeste captured so many lovely moments between people we love so dearly and we will treasure these pictures forever!
If anyone is even slightly considering hiring Celeste, don’t think about it just do it!!!! You will NOT regret it!!! I promise.
Celeste, we can’t thank you enough for your lovely service and we will always be so grateful. We are already talking about renewing our vows in the future and having you photograph this for us haha!!! From the bottom of our hearts thank you.
Ashley and Able Camacho

Jenna K. Sent on 06/15/2020Absolutely incredible
Celeste was recommended by a coworker after our first photographer was a no-go. She was understanding of our issues with the first photographer (lack of communication, poor response time, not terribly professional) and made sure that all of our anxieties were put to rest. At every step, she was prompt, knowledgable, professional, and incredibly warm and friendly! She put us at ease immediately and made sure we knew what the timeline was.
On top of everything, when my wedding week arrived with forecasts of solid rain, she said "don't worry, I'll take care of it — it'll be sunny" and wouldn't you know it, we had a 70º day with sun in the middle of January. Even if she hadn't somehow worked actual magic, her calm and cheer helped me calm down and focus more on getting excited.
I sincerely can't recommend her enough. She will put a smile on your face and deliver truly beautiful photographs. -

So glad I found Celeste!
When I started planning my wedding, I knew the photographer would be the most important element for me. I wanted to remember the feeling of the event, and I wanted pictures that felt authentic and showed the real me! Celeste was recommended to me by a friend who is also a wedding photographer, and she was a joy to work with. She is so warm and nurturing and worked with our difficult schedule (we live far away from the wedding venue) to arrange an engagement shoot so we could meet in person before our wedding. She made me feel at ease from the moment I met her (I am awkward in front of cameras usually so this was a relief) and on our big day she was there every time we turned around, capturing candid moments. I'm so happy with how my pictures came out and I would recommend Celeste to anyone! -

Captured our wedding better than ever imagined
We thank our lucky stars that we found Celeste for our wedding. Celeste captured photos that we didn’t even realize she was taking. The whole day felt like we were just walking around with our best friend and she just happen to be taking photos. When we got the photos we were blow away at what she captured. She is so incredibly talented with using lighting and background to her advantage and our favorite photos are all the candid ones. We loved Celeste’s work so much that we also did a maternity photo shoot with her and she again blew us away with the photos. We are so grateful to have had Celeste with us for our biggest life moments. Celeste feels like part of our family now. ❤️ -
