Gabrielle N. Sent on 12/08/2019We adored our photos as much as we loved Seth + Nicole!
Seth & Nicole were awesome! Our pictures came out amazing - from the more posed family pictures to the candids from the reception; we loved every single photo. The pre-work we did to map out all of the photos we wanted was such a great idea, they made sure we got every combination of people we wanted so that we have no regrets of "oh i wish I had a picture with...." They were also just a joy to have around - we were afraid the whole process of pictures was going to be a bit awkward, but Seth + Nicole made it comfortable & enjoyable the entire day. We couldn't recommend Hyde Photography enough! -

Sarah B. Sent on 04/06/2024Hyde Photography is simply the best!!
Seth completely understood what we wanted from our first phone call, and made sure that he knew everything that was important to us before our wedding day. He captured everything we wanted, and we have zero "oh, I wish we got xxx photo" regrets!! He was also so easy to work with. My husband absolutely hates taking photos, and neither of us are photogenic, but Seth managed to make it fun for both of us (which is an incredibly hard task!) and so easy to get the more candid style we were after. Most importantly, the photos are GORGEOUS. Obviously everyone loves their wedding photos, but ours are objectively works of art. I look at our gallery a stupidly large number of times every week. So excited to fill our home with these photos. Thank you so much, Seth!!! -

Calm, supportive, and talented!
Early in our wedding planning we met with Seth over zoom to determine whether Hyde would be the best fit for our wedding, and as soon as we met him we were absolutely certain that we needed to work with him! The first thing we noticed was that Seth had a very calm and friendly personality, and we suspected that on a crazy day, that energy was going to go a long way. This could not have been more accurate! My day as the bride had a big panicky moment when I spilled bright green matcha all down the front of my wedding dress BEFORE our first look. Seth quickly assured me that he was going to be able to edit it out and remained calm and positive, which helped me to feel like everything was going to be okay after thinking I'd destroyed my dress. Between clever angling, a well-placed bouquet, and (I assume some) editing, there is not a single indication of what happened in all of the preview photos we received. Seth's assistant on the day of our wedding was Brandon, and he caught beautiful shots of us and our families while also offering constant help and support with anything that we needed. We received our previews only a few days after the wedding, and while I didn't cry at our actual wedding, I cried looking through these absolutely stunning photos. We will always treasure these incredible memories of our day, and we have Seth, Brandon, and Hyde Photography to thank for that. We are so thrilled to have worked with them. Thank you, Seth and Brandon! -

I truly can't say enough good things about Hyde Photography! From our engagement photos to our wedding and everything in between, Seth was so professional, talented, and kind. He has a way of making you look and feel natural especially if you're not used to having your photo taken. Our wedding day would not have been the same without him - he kept us calm and on track even when weather made things tricky, and captured the most incredible photos we could have ever imagined of our special day. Our friends and family can't stop talking about them! We really feel like we're reliving our wedding when we look through our album, and I'm so grateful Seth was right there with us during the craziest but most amazing day of our lives with the best ideas, jokes, and photo ops (even with their baby girl due any day)! Hyde was without a doubt one of the best wedding decisions we made. We'd recommend Seth & Nicole 100%. -

Capturing unforgettable memories
When it comes to capturing the essence of our special day, we couldn't have asked for a more talented and dedicated photographer than Seth at Hyde Photography. His expertise and passion for weddings shined through every moment.
From our first meeting, Hyde impressed us with their warm and professional approach. They took the time to understand our vision and what mattered most to us, ensuring that every shot reflected our love story.
We knew that the wedding would be over before we knew it and that the photos would be our best memories. My wife is also an amateur photographer and she wanted to make sure the photos receive the time and attention they deserve.
On our wedding day, Hyde balance perfectly between being directive and being hands-off. Seth made sure he got all the shots he needed, quickly, efficiently, with good vibes, and happy smiles from everyone. It felt seamless and at the same time we were confident that he got all the shots we knew we wanted.
We received the wedding preview shots less than a week after the wedding and---no surprise--every shot is beautiful. Seth is an artist and he’s able to frame each moment, directed or candid, for the perfect shot. Our photos are a mix of fun and timeless.
Thanks to Hyde for making all our wedding memories truly unforgettable. With deepest appreciation, Dan and Niña. -

Seth/Hyde Photography were incredible. From our very first meeting, my husband and I knew he understood our vibe. He made us feel so comfortable, so at ease during the entire process but especially on our wedding day. Seth brings a sense of calm and that sort of energy is something every couple needs on their wedding day. He never placed pressure on us but also ensured we got all the shots we wanted. We had a large wedding party and we received so many texts from friends and family saying how enjoyable Seth was to work with. So not only does he help capture your most magical moments , he knows how to make your wedding party feel special too. We’re so grateful for Seth and his team and would recommend him to anyone getting married. -

10/10 Highly Recommend
We couldn’t be happier that we chose Seth to be our wedding photographer! Not only are all the photos incredible (we love them so much) but he also 1) took the time to make sure we got all the specific shots we asked for and 2) he is an absolute pleasure to spend time with on your wedding day as he is a genuinely great person. Needless to say my wife and I are big fans and highly recommend! -

Amanda P. Sent on 05/30/2023The absolute best wedding photographers!!!!
We cannot recommend Seth highly enough if you are looking for a wedding photographer. From our initial calls with him, and then our engagement shoot, it was clear that Seth is not only such a kind and sweet person but also a fantastic photographer. He made us feel so comfortable and at ease and was so much fun to work with—which was super important to us being that you spend such a large portion of your wedding day with your photographer. Seth brought Sarah with him as his partner on the day of our wedding and we cannot say enough good things about her as well. The two of them got the most gorgeous photos of our day and captured all of the love and joy better than we could have imagined. They were even able to wrangle our very large families together for beautiful photos that mean so much to us. There is not a better photography team out there! -

Cope O. Sent on 04/23/2023Cannot recommend Hyde Photography Enough
If you're looking for a wedding photographer who will capture your special day in a way that truly reflects your unique love story, I cannot recommend Hyde Photography and Seth highly enough. Working with Seth was an absolute dream - he made us feel comfortable and at ease from the very first meeting, and his passion for his craft was evident in every shot he took.
Throughout the day, Seth's talent for capturing candid, beautiful moments blew us away. He had an incredible ability to capture the emotions and energy of the day, and his use of light, color, and composition was masterful. What we loved most about Seth was his creativity and willingness to think outside the box. He had so many amazing ideas for unique and creative shots that truly captured the spirit of our wedding, and we couldn't be happier with the results.
Overall, working with Seth was an incredible experience. We now have stunning photos that capture every moment of our special day, and we'll cherish them for a lifetime. Thank you, Seth, for giving us such a beautiful way to remember our wedding day! -

The best photographer in the tri-state
If you have not booked a wedding Photographer for wedding yet do yourself a favor and book Seth now!! We found Seth on tagged photos on instagram of our wedding venue and it was like the stars aligned. Since the moment we met him it was like speaking with a friend. He made us so comfortable with him from the first meeting. We did an engagement shoot with Seth and he shot our wedding day. For someone who is not confident in themselves, Seth made me feel so comfortable and beautiful! The photos are amazing. Friends and family have said our wedding previews looks like a photo shoot out of Vogue! Your wedding day goes by SO fast but you spend a lot of time with your vendors. I am so grateful we booked Seth and Hyde Photography for our wedding. He made the day relaxed and fun. The photos are breathtaking and we have only seen our previews. Thank you Seth for making us the happiest Bride & Groom! -

We had the pleasure of having Seth AND Nicole photograph our wedding at Nostrano Vineyards. They are the perfect team and make everyone feel comfortable. We have received endless compliments about our engagement pictures and the ones from our wedding.
I’m not a person who is comfortable in front of the camera and from the first moment of our engagement shoot, Seth made me feel nothing BUT comfortable. I instantly knew we made the right decision for our wedding day. It was only magnified once we heard Nicole would be joining us that day.
Leading up to the day , Seth and Nicole brought their expertise to not only aid in the schedule of the day but also to ensure we got the absolutely most stunning pictures possible. From sunset pictures in the vineyard, to getting a wide range of scenery around our venue, it was so comforting to know that we were in the best possible hands. There’s no better photographer team to go with. -

Mia O. Sent on 09/23/2022Wedding Photography MAGIC!
From our very first meeting through the end of our wedding day, working with Seth was a dream. He is not only a great photographer, but also a super-humanly kind and fun person to be around and made every meeting, our engagement photo shoot, and the entire wedding day so lovely.
A few weeks before the wedding, our meeting with Seth completely erased every fear and anxiety I had about our day running on schedule. If his expertise and professionalism could soothe this Type-A, notoriously punctual bride, he can handle any situation! On the wedding day, Seth effortlessly wrangled all our large families for photos and made everyone look good and feel at ease. He kept our energy up and our focus on how much fun we were having, and made sure we took time to rest and enjoy our day together. We even received our preview photos the day after the wedding, which was the icing on top of an already very delicious cake.
I truly cannot say enough nice things about Seth, and I know that Nicole is also working her magic behind the scenes as well. If you want the best photography experience around, Hyde Photography is it! -

Fairytale wedding photos
Wow! That is all I can say (but not really, there is so many amazing things to write!)
Seth stood out to us from day one, not just in his style of shooting, but from our initial meeting when he took the time to read our entire story on our wedding website before even meeting with us; it felt like we were chatting with a friend but had just met him! We knew instantly that Hyde Photography had to shoot our wedding because of the tasteful shots he has been able to capture in the past as well as how kind he was to us during that first meeting. In our option, photo is probably the most important part of the day because that is what lasts forever once everything is over, and we are beyond thankful that Seth was able to help us with this part!
Our engagement shoot was in an amazing location which Seth had recommended and upon arrival, there were a ton of people on the beach and boats in the water, and SOMEHOW he made it look like we were the only two people for miles. Once those shots came back, I was beyond thrilled to see what the wedding day photos would turn out like!
On the wedding day, Seth had Scott accompany him as the second shooter and they both killed it with our crew. They completely made this day for us and we are so blessed to have had them. Scott was super energetic and sweet and everyone got along amazingly with both of them and there was a ton of laughing; they fit in to our crew seamlessly. We could not have gotten better weather for our special day and I am so stunned with the outcome of the photos! The lighting was perfect and Seth was able to come up with some great poses and I cannot believe we get to keep these photos forever… these are the type of photos I would see on Pinterest and think “If I could get photos that are at least this gorgeous, I will be happy” which is why I was so amazed at what we got delivered.
Seth had worked at our location before which was super helpful, but the spots he picked at The Garrison to get shots at combined with the angles was truly perfect. One of the best parts was that our group shots were so well planned that they were over with in about 10 minutes, and we were able to get every single shot we had in mind (including a group tequila shot which was so fun!).
During the party portion of the night, the guys were able to capture so many fun dancing photos and even helped coordinate larger family shots that we did not get to fit in in the previous time we held photos. Our bubble gun exit photos are hands down some of our favorite shots of the day and really capture how much fun we were having in that moment. Seth and Scott are absolute experts in what they do and were the cherry on top of the best day ever. We got the best next day preview as well in record time!
Overall, I never imagined I could get wedding photos that are this beautiful and I am forever grateful for Hyde Photography! These photos will be beautiful memories we will cherish forever and I fully recommend having them be a part of your special day if you are looking for high quality, friendly service and gorgeous finished products! -

The Best of the BEST
I was married at the Liberty House in Jersey City, NJ on 12/18. Here is what sets Hyde apart from the thousands of photographers you could pick for your wedding day, especially in the NYC area. Two main traits: ATTITUDE and STYLE. Let's talk about Seth - after planning our wedding, pushing our wedding, dealing with guest cancellations due to the Omicron variant two days before our wedding and less than ideal winter weather (so much fog and the grossest mist), Seth's incredible attitude made it seem like nothing else in the world mattered or existed but my husband and I. He kept us on schedule, was so flexible and open to any of my suggestions or need throughout the day, was a jack-of-all-trades over just a photographer - gathering my family and bridal party, organizing flowers for the groomsmen, chauffeuring my Dad and I to the church - Seth truly does it all, and does it all with a smile on his face and so much love in his heart for the couple he's documenting. Secondly, Seth's style of photography is unmatched. I can say this with proof considering I got an amazing selection of preview photographs just a few days after the wedding. They're all so incredible, I told Seth today I still can't decide which 10 (!!!!) to post on an Instagram carousel. To get technical, the rich tones Seth uses were much more my taste compared to the more airy, ethereal wedding photos you often see. Those are lovely, but the way Seth uses color and light to bring out the most authentic and natural sides of a couple was exactly what I was looking for. In 30 years when I look back at our wedding photos, I know I'll see me and my husband in our purest and happiest forms and feel the exact same way I feel today. Do yourself a favor and book with Hyde. LOVE YOU SETH! -

Michael G. Sent on 12/14/2021Best photographer around!!
My partner and I were blown away with our experience with Seth! We had to reschedule our wedding date two times and throughout the planning process he was extremely easy going and responsive. When it came time for our wedding on 12/11/21 at 501 Union in Brooklyn, he arrived with full of energy and made the process of taking photos super exciting. He got all of our requested shots and had a preview of the wedding over to us the very next day.
When we first saw the photos, our jaws dropped!!!! The quality of the images far surpassed our expectations. The colors, saturation and sharpness was insane. Our friends and family were also impressed.
If you are looking for a photographer look no further! Seth is truly the best! -

Unreal/amazing
There are not enough words to describe how awesome Seth is! If you need a wedding photographer Seth and Nicole are your people. We had to change our wedding plans multiple times due to Covid. We ended up having a small wedding with immediate family in 2020 and then just had our big celebration July 2021. We were so lucky to have him photograph both of these events. Seth was SO supportive and organized throughout this entire process!! He saved multiple dates for us when we were uncertain about canceling our wedding or not even when he had other inquiries for those dates. It just showed how much he truly cares about each couple’s happiness and how compassionate he is about what he does!! I cannot tell you how comfortable we were with him! My husband and I have never really gotten our photos professionally taken before and he made us feel like we’ve gotten them taken a million times before. He makes you laugh and captures moments you never even thought could come to life. I cannot stop looking at all of our photos!!! They are unreal!! We were so lucky that we even got the opportunity to be photographed by Hyde Photography. I wouldn’t recommend anyone else but them!!! -

Francesca Sent on 06/05/2021Everything and more! 10/10
I don’t even know where to begin with this amazing couple. I found them through Instagram stalking endlessly for the perfect wedding photographers. Everything about them was what I dreamed of. We had the PLEASURE of working with them during Covid (October outdoor wedding event) and they exceeded our expectations. Their assistant was also just pure bliss. Our photos are everything and more but aside from all of that just simply working with them was truly a phenomenal experience. My husband and I together are FUN and we aren’t shy when it comes to taking photos but we most definitely can get awkward. Seth helped us EVERY step of the way and made the engagement shoot and wedding day even better by just being apart of it. 10/10 could not recommend this couple enough. LOVE HYDEPHOTOGRAPHY WITH ALL MY HEART. -

Working with Seth + Nicole has been an absolute dream! We hired Seth + Nicole for our wedding about a year and a half out from our date (9/12/20). From scrolling through their site, to the first virtual meeting, we knew they were our perfect photography match. While we postponed our larger wedding to 2021, Seth still came to shoot our small backyard ceremony this year. My husband and I are blown away by the previews (which Seth sent same day) & we cannot wait to get the full album.
The silver lining to a second wedding is that we get to work with them again! I cannot recommend them enough!
