    We absolutely recommend Funico!

    My wife and I cannot praise Funico enough. We had a two-day Indian/Western fusion Sangeet & wedding and our photographers/videographers were with us every step of the way with fun dispositions, professional demeanor, and passion for their craft.

    Brian (photographer) was imaginative and adventurously creative with shots and made us feel at ease. Dan (photographer) was equally engaging and adept. Also, an important issue for us was that the photographers not obstruct guests' views and feel a little too *present*. They were not. They just blended into the background while still getting amazing photos that we look back on with immense joy. The final products were outstanding. Funico's samples on their website already speak for themselves and drew us to them in the first place.

    And Alice was a delight! She was our first contact point with Funico and she was assuring, understanding, and communicative. We knew we were in good hands.

    If looking for a wedding photographer, we strongly believe you should consider Funico Studios!

    Amazing photos - highly recommend!

    James was perfect choice as our wedding photographer! He recommended first look venues and locations based on our vision and wedding location. We love the intimate bride/groom shots, as well as the special moments James captured with family and friends!

    Amazing photography and cinematography!

    I don't even know where to begin so I'll just start by saying we're SO glad we went with Funico Studios for our wedding. From start to finish they were always available helping us with whatever questions or concerns we had. They took away the stress of planning the day of the wedding by preparing a timeline we would follow. Having that timeline down was such a relief! We didn't have to worry about where we'd be taking pictures or with whom. They already knew the best places to photograph but would always indulge us if we wanted specific pictures. The quality of the pictures and cinematography were also astounding! We posted our wedding video for friends and family to see and they could not stop talking about how amazing it came out. Thank you so much, Alice, James, Bryan, and Thomas! You all helped make our wedding day the greatest day of our lives!

    Of all the vendors that I worked with for my wedding, Funico Studios was the best. James was my photographer and not only could you tell he cared about his work, but he was critical in making sure the day ran smoothly. Before the wedding, he created a timeline of photos to take, based on my preferences, and he made sure the day followed the timeline well. His calm presence was much needed for my nerves! My wedding day was an unusually hot and humid May day, and we all felt the heat. However, the heat did not phase James and he took amazing photos. Our photos came out amazing, and you couldn't even tell we were melting under the sun! Working with them was so easy! With regards to logistics, and contracts, we spoke with Alice on the phone, and she is so fun and bubbly, it made everything so easy. Her laugh is infectious and she is responsive and organized. I would highly recommend this team for all your wedding photo needs!

    When my husband and I found Alice and James, we were only 6 months away from the wedding and frantically looking for a photographer/videographer for our wedding after our original photographer canceled on us. We were a bit skeptical because we have never seen a company with such stellar reviews and comments. There were literally no negative comments and so we wondered "is this company for real?" THEY ARE FOR REAL! From the moment I spoke with Alice on the phone to meeting her in person and then meeting James the day of the wedding. James and Thomas (videographer) were like another member of the family. Their ideas were creative and the final products were amazing! All of our family is raving about the pictures and video. It was such a wonderful feeling to relive the day through their lenses and even more so knowing we made the best decision going with them. You will not be disappointed!

    Funico is simply AMAZING!!! We hired them to photograph our wedding, which took place in the fall of 2017. From the moment we chose them, we knew we had made a great decision! Working with Alice and James was truly a pleasure, they are so very knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. They knew off the top of their heads the layout of our venue. They are well-versed in all aspects of a tradition Jewish wedding. Alice and James were always quick to respond to our questions and willing to talk by phone, email, whatever was best for us. They very patiently explained all the various options and we never felt they were trying to force the more expensive options on us. For the wedding itself, we had James and Kevin, who were spectacular! Our family and friends (and ourselves!) are so pleased with how the photos came out and capture so well the memories of such a special day in our lives. We cannot say enough good things about Funico and would totally hire them again. Thank you Alice, James and Kevin for being so pleasant to work with and doing such a wonderful job of photographing our wedding!

    5 stars just aren't enough

    Alice and James are an absolute pleasure to work with! They are fun, professional, and know how to keep things light. Choosing pictures for the album was very difficult since every picture came out perfect! I would highly recommend Funico Studios to anyone who is looking for a pair of photographers who are guaranteed to deliver!

    Simply the best! I can't recommend Funico Studios enough for whatever event you'd like to have photographed. My husband and I hired Funico to photograph our wedding this past July and it was easily one of the best decisions we made. From a planning perspective, Alice and James were fantastic...they answered all of our questions and patiently helped us determine how we really wanted to visually capture our wedding. We loved how they carefully explained all our options and willingly offered their advice from both a personal and professional perspective. They responded to our many emails quickly and called us on the phone whenever we needed. For the day of the wedding, our photographer Jimmy was incredible. He alone was worth every penny! He took the most amazing photos that we are absolutely in love with. More importantly, he went far above and beyond to put us in just the right moods and positions to really make our day that much more special. I cannot recommend this company enough and would hire them again and again.

    We had Jimmy as our photographer for our wedding. I was so completely blown away by him. I thought I was going to need two photographers, but I was assured that all I needed was Jimmy. They were absolutely correct. He was very effeciant and the one to keep us on track when we were running late. He knew exactly what he wanted and got the job done!!! I highly recommend Jimmy! Everyone is great over Funico, but Jimmy is definitely a cut above the rest!

    My husband and I were married on Palm Sunday and started planning our wedding over a year ago. We chose Funico Studios because they photographed my sister's wedding over 10 years ago and I was impressed with their work. It was the only photographer we looked at. We initially met with Alice (husband and wife team) who was vibrant, enthusiastic and bubbly. It's hard not to instantly love her. She was patient and detailed oriented. We have lots of questions and she addressed them all. Most importantly, they were affordable and fair. Her husband James did the photography on our wedding day and he was amazing! He was punctual, nicely dressed, and guided us through every step of the way. He worked for the entire time he was there. Didn't appear to sit down at all. He was pleasant, funny and made us all feel comfortable. They are a great team and I highly recommend Funico Studios for your wedding or special events.

    We booked both Alice and James, who have very different styles, and we were so happy with the end result! These guys are open to just about anything, but were also happy to take charge whenever they had an idea.

    From our engagement photo session (at which James stayed about an extra 30 minutes in order to get the best shots possible during dusk) to the amazing photos they managed to get at the wedding to the timeliness of receiving our wedding photos when they had been promised, we were so happy with our decision!

    At the end of the day, the photos are really the only thing you get to keep (other than your new spouse!), and Alice and James truly captured the day for us! I can't recommend them highly enough!

    Alice and James were amazing. They worked with us through everything and were willing to accommodate what we needed! I would definitely recommend them to other couples getting married! They were so easy to work with. All emails were responded to in a timely fashion and my husband and I were so happy with the final outcome of our pictures!

    Hi, Our wedding was March 12,2016 We cannot say enough about Funico and especially James!Words cannot describe how we feel about the whole experience. We didn't meet with any other photographers. We saw the work of Funico studios at our reception venue Snug Harbor and that was it and from first conversation with Alice we knew Our day would be captured perfectly! James was our photographer and upon meeting him that morning I instantly felt comfortable and we were in great hands! He was so amazing and gave us our memories for a lifetime. So professional and artistic with such a keen eye and fit right in with us! We can't thank them enough are photographs are just mindblowing, and because of James we get to relive our beautiful day and moment in time forever and ever, Sincerely Jennifer&Michael

    Alice and James are amazing!!! Not only are they incredibly creative and talented, but they are so accommodating, understanding and thoughtful throughout the entire process. They worked through every detail with us during the planning stages, and kept us cool and calm the day off. A few days before our wedding we had to change the area originally chosen to do the bride and groom pics. James immediately got back to us with great alternatives and scouted out spots for unique and amazing pictures.
    We couldn't be happier with our pictures! They are above and beyond what we expected. Alice captured the emotions and reactions of our family and friends which is just incredible to see. James took such unique pictures that everyone is still talking about them. Our wedding day was incredible and thanks to Alice and James, we can cherish that day forever with the most amazing pictures!

    Writing a review for Funico Studios is easy. I loved them! Value, professionalism, and skill. I must say I am partial to Alice. She had me from the beginning by being a calming force and completely open minded. From start to finish Alice was available, thoughtful, and a pleasure to deal with. I believed the prices to be very fair and when I saw the photos - I was thrilled!

    On the day of when I felt "too many photos and people - ahhh", I called Alice over and she had everyone out after one more pose. That was a nice moment to myself. Perfect Alice. They respected our alone picnic and got perfect pictures of everything. Jame (Alice's Husband) was the other part of the photography pair and I opted for 2 videographers. Everyone worked so well together and it ran so smoothly.

    They created my time schedule for the day of which was extremely helpful later on when tons of people were asking me for it - Thanks James! Basically they just took care of everything, remembered all the things I didn't, and were fun. I enjoyed having them at my wedding and will enjoy their beautiful visions of the night for years to come.

    I have also already referred someone to Funico and they booked with James/Alice too. Great pictures and people - win!

    We enjoyed working with Alice and James for our wedding. They were very responsive and prompt and provided a lot of helpful information and tips leading up to our wedding. I appreciated that they planned a lot of the details in advance – this really helped for a smooth experience. We felt taken care of – and this was critical for us especially on our big day.

    James was our photographer and he was awesome – arriving early to set up and was very friendly and helpful. We appreciated his professionalism and work ethic. He worked hard the entire night to provide a lot of nice and diverse shots, and this is evident in the quality of the final work. Overall we had a wonderful experience and would definitely recommend them!

    Alice and James were our photographers for our wedding and we are over the moon with our photos -- on both counts -- quantity and quality! They provide excellent customer service and are so organized. I love that they provide a wedding day planning worksheet ahead of time to sort out all photography requests and they are super flexible! We don't live in NY (where our wedding was located) so selecting vendors from afar was a handful, but our meetings and phone calls with them were so helpful! We cannot wait to pick our album photos and see the final album product! Also, they provided videography services (2 videographers). We just viewed our highlights video and it was just perfect! We cannot wait to see our full wedding video! I'd highly recommend picking Funico Studios for your wedding - absolutely excellent customer service and friendly people!
