    The Best Photographer in NYC

    One of the best photographers out there!!! Cynthia is so easy to work with and the quality of her work is top-notch. I first met Cynthia few years ago when she was shooting for my friend's wedding and she is just so friendly and her pictures came out so beautiful. I just knew that I had to bring her on as my photographer for my wedding. She makes you feel so at ease and will work in whatever situation we are in. My family was being so crazy and nuts and she had such a calm collected head on her shoulder. I had the 10hr package which included either a book or a 2hr photo session which is what we picked. My husband and I do not have a lot of nice photographed pictures so this was a nice treat yourself moment. If you pick Cynthia to shoot for your wedding or other life event - trust me you won't regret it. If there's ever another moment for me to hire her again I certainly will. TRUST!

    Amazing wedding photographer!

    Cynthia is amazing! She was super responsive from the first time we reached out to her for our wedding. She's so friendly, kind, and easy to work with. She is a truly talented photographer, and has the ability to capture candid moments that really tell the story of your day. We are so thrilled to have worked with her. Your wedding really will not be complete without her.

    Glowing review for Cynthia

    We cannot recommend Cynthia highly enough!! My husband and I were a bit nervous to be in front of the camera so much but Cynthia made us both feel at so at ease. She was a joy to work with and our wedding photos turned out beautifully. It's clear that Cynthia really enjoys what she does and she takes great care in capturing all the special moments of the day.

    Truly the best photographer ever!

    If you need a photographer, Cynthia is the ONE. We absolutely LOVED working with Cynthia! She is an amazing and talented photographer and our engagement and wedding photos turned out so beautiful!! And having GIFS included with your photos was such a delightful bonus to have! Cynthia has such a fun, lovely, friendly personality that we felt so comfortable and relaxed having her take our photos. She's super engaging and her warm heart and creativity truly shows not only in the photos she captures but also when communicating with her via email or instagram! We would absolutely love to work with her again. She was the BEST! Thank you so much Cynthia!

    A rave review

    Cynthia shot my elopement and it couldn't have been more perfect. She was punctual and incredibly professional. It was a cold winter day in December and having a photographer give you exact directions on how to pose and then getting her shots in a few quick snaps shows the breadth of her experience. My husband and I absolutely loved our photos and her editing. Give her some details on what you're looking for and let her work her magic!

    Solid and wonderful to work with

    Cynthia was so amazing to work with. We found her via a google search and loved her body of work. Then we met her the day of our elopement and I felt like we were already friends just catching up! She made our 2 hour session so easy and fun- which is just what you need when you are camera shy. Funny story: my sister-in-law met us half way through our photo shoot and didn’t realize we had just met her that day until after we finished up. THAT is how down to earth and friendly she is. We were even more blown away when she sent us our photons- stunning work!! Would absolutely recommend her to family and friends.

    Incredible photographer and such a dream to work with!!!

    I am so grateful for Cynthia and I'd recommend her 1000x over to anyone looking for someone to capture their special moments! Looking through Cynthia's website actually helped me figure out how I wanted to get married in NYC, so she unknowingly gave us a lot of creative inspiration. And then she was just as great to work with- incredibly communicative, helped guide and shared advice on what to expect/how best to time out our elopement ceremony + shoot and made us feel incredibly comfortable at the shoot itself. The pictures are INCREDIBLE- she really captured everyone's raw emotion, brought to life the creative vision (it was important to me that the photos really feel like New York City since it's such a special place for my husband and I) and it was so fun to be able to relive our elopement day through her photos. We are so grateful- I can't wait to find other opportunities to work with her again!!

    Our Fantastic Experience with Cynthia

    Working with Cynthia was a fantastic experience and we HIGHLY recommend her services.

    Leading up to our wedding, Cynthia checked in with us regularly; gave us suggestions on the flow of our event, and made a plan to ensure we got all of the photos we wanted.

    On the day of the event, Cynthia was punctual and professional. She did such a good job making us feel comfortable while we were taking photos. She has a great eye for photos and made sure we maximized our time while taking photos without feeling like we were rushing.

    The photos that Cynthia took were stunning. She sent us a full catalog of photos that came out perfect and also offers a number of options for printing/framing.

    If you are looking for a wedding photographer, look no further than Cynthia. She was such a vital part of our event and we couldn’t have been happier with the service she provided.

    Wedding photography with a personal touch

    We found out about Cynthia online, and I am so glad we did! Her beautiful and cheery style was what drew us to her work, and we are so pleased with how the photos came out. She was communicative leading up to our wedding, very professional and personable on the day of. We appreciated how she and her assistant made the effort to engage with our guests throughout the reception in a way that they could get candid shots of all of the moments. The GIFs are such a unique and fun part of her style and we love how they came out!

    You're in good hands!

    Our engagement photography session was supposed to happen last year but was delayed because of COVID-19. Cynthia was very understanding and accommodating about the whole situation and we were able to reschedule for this year. Although we were quite nervous at the beginning of the session, she made us feel right at ease with her jokes and conversation. The weather that day was also less than ideal but she maintained a very positive attitude and our photos still turned out absolutely gorgeous! It was wonderful working with Cynthia and we cannot recommend her enough!

    Amazing time and photos!!

    My husband and I had the best time working with Cynthia for our micro-wedding/elopement. We aren’t the most comfortable when it comes to getting our pictures taken, but she made us feel relaxed and at ease while also keeping our energy up throughout the whole session. The entire experience, from initial conversation of what we were looking for to the day itself, was stress free and a blast. We are so happy that we chose to work with Cynthia and couldn’t recommend her more!

    Artistic Excellence + the friend who makes you feel super taken care of.

    We found Cynthia on instagram, fell in love and has been avid fans ever since! We were super thrilled when she said yes to photographing us in midst this pandemic craziness! She's a magician with her work and all the photos turned out amazing! Friends and family are raving about the photos being, "magical," "dreamy" and "out of a fairytale." Working with Cynthia was super easy with her flexibility, professionalism and the talent to make you feel at ease in front of the lens in mere seconds. Hire. Her. Now.

    Amazing experience and photos with Cynthia!

    Cynthia and her assistant were incredible. We were looking specifically for someone who had shot City Hall weddings/small ceremonies before and was familiar with what to expect. Cynthia was professional and also a wonderful person to have around all weekend. Our photos turned out beautiful, and we were so glad she had captured every little moment that we hoped.

    Look no further in your search for the right photographer than Cynthia, a wonderful and talented photographer for any meaningful occasion. Her work is really terrific, but it’s her warm personality, acumen, and vision that stands her out from the rest. Hands down, she is amazing. We hope to work with her again in the future.

    Such a joy to work with!

    I had been following Cynthia on Instagram for some time and really loved her work. I was very excited that we were able to book her even though it was at somewhat short notice. Cynthia was very responsive and thorough in answering all our questions. On the day of our wedding, she was very patient with all our guests and really made us comfortable during our session. She was a very sweet and friendly person to work with and we had a lot of fun during our session, we almost forgot how tired we were. We just got our photos back and are very pleased with the end result. If you do decide to book with Cynthia, you won't regret it.

    Highly recommended and dependable

    Cynthia was a joy to work with. She was the most responsive and dependable photographer we talked to. We felt at ease hiring her for elopement shoot knowing that we were well taken care of. She guided us through the whole process, took care of selecting locations for us and was extremely accommodating when we had to put our session on hold for nearly half a year due to COVID. Most importantly our pictures turned out great.

    Absolute professional

    I am a wedding officiant and I work with a lot of photographers. Cynthia Chung is one of the best photographers I have ever worked with. She is fun, friendly, social, and I can see she is able to make her clients feel very comfortable during her shoot. She is assertive and respectfully took charge on how the wedding party should stand. During the ceremony she worked hard to ensure she took the best shots while still being respectful to the ceremony. I absolutely recommend her!

    Cynthia is the best photographer I could ask for at our elopement. She's down to earth, have an amazing personality and makes the whole session fun.

    Best photographer!

    I highly recommend working with Cynthia for whatever your photography needs are. My husband and I worked with her for our elopement and not only is she a very talented photographer, but she is just so great and easy to work with; especially during a pandemic! She made it a great experience that kind of just felt like we were hanging out.

    My husband is known for not wanting to take photos, but even he admitted that it ended up being kind of fun for him. She was able to really capture so many great photos that it’s been kind of hard deciding which ones to print and display; and she even made gifs with the images! Cynthia is so kind and I honestly cannot recommend her enough.

    took all my anxieties away

    Just got our pictures back from our photoshoot! Cynthia was the absolute best to work with. I hate taking pictures and can never get comfortable but she just made it so easy and fun! You're never lost as to how to pose/what to do with your hands if you're awkward because she gives excellent direction. She was also extremely responsive to all my questions, no matter how ridiculous they were. 100% recommend! I'm so happy with all the pictures too. The gifs are so special as well. Thank you cynthia!!

    Cynthia is the best!

    She was super responsive and accommodating with the number of questions and changes we threw her way (yay for Covid weddings). My now-husband and I are typically very awkward when taking photos, but her cheerful personality and creative direction made it seem easy and natural for her to capture the perfect shot. Of course, the photos themselves came out absolutely stunning. If you’re looking for beautifully staged (and candid) photos, a responsible photographer, and an overall comfortable and fun experience, Cynthia brings it all :)

    Cynthia is amazing! Would highly recommend, loved working with her!

    Where to begin, Cynthia was the absolute best to work with! Right from the beginning when we had a Skype interview, we knew she was the right fit for us with her positive energy and bright personality. She also was super flexible and instead of doing a traditional engagement photoshoot, she came to our engagement party and took photos of just the two of us and also our family and friends at the party. For our wedding, she was extremely professional and worked closely with our wedding planners, which made it a breeze for us with everything going on in the prep and lead up to the big day! She scouted our wedding location in advance too, which was super helpful--she truly went the extra mile. On the day of, her team was on-time and on top of the shot list we hoped to capture. Despite it being super windy outside which caused a slight change in our original plans, we still were able to get beautiful photos and could not be more pleased with everything. Her GIF photos are also so unique and amazing, our family loved looking at all the moments captured. If you're considering Cynthia for your wedding photographer, look no further! She's Uhhh-mazing!

    Absolutely the best.... Even for the pickiest of nyc brides!

    Cynthia & her entire team were a DREAM COME TRUE! I found her while scrolling through instagram & instantly my heart was set! I wanted a photographer who specialized in NYC / editorial-esque style --- she did not disappoint! I was SO excited to hire a photog who could absolutely capture not only the magic of a wedding, but the absolute BEAUTY , ENERGY, AMBIANCE of every detail of the day. i was not a typical bride by many measures, but Cynthia helped me to balance the "traditional wedding photo" expectation from my parents with the NYC GLAM / CITY STREET vibe that i wanted so desperately....WORTH EVERY PENNY!! Her team was literally the most kind, easy going, and absolute professionals -- they made our wedding day a DREAM. THANK YOU!!! XOXOXOX
