    Lev is the best!

    We absolutely loved working with Lev for our wedding. We got married 2 weeks ago, in Queens, and Lev really helped make the whole portrait process feel as natural and easy as possible. We got our sneak peek pictures a few days later, while on our minimoon, and we were blown away with the first few pictures. Your photographer is someone you end up spending a good deal of the day with, on such an important day, and Lev quickly had us feeling like we were just chatting with an old friend, walking around the venue.

    Would highly recommend to any couples getting married that they work with Lev!

    Lev is the absolute best!

    We were so thrilled to have Lev as our wedding photographer. Lev was able to capture our day as it naturally unfolded, inserting his vision and talent in the perfect way that left us with beautiful, editorial and timeless photos. He possesses an exceptional ability to capture the nuance and beauty of the most intimate moments. But most importantly to us, he let us enjoy ourselves on our day.

    Wedding photos can be daunting. Our biggest concern headed into hiring a wedding photographer was making sure we hired someone who wouldn’t feel intrusive to our day. We wanted the photo process to be fun, not stressful to our experience. After we hired Lev, our concerns vanished. We knew Lev was on our team and we knew that he was going to only be additive to our day vs feel like an obligation. And that’s exactly what happened. Lev captured the feeling of our day, and we enjoyed every moment of the photography process.

    Lev has a calming presence, he’s down to earth, fun to talk to, and a genuine guy, all of this culminates in a stress-free day. Lastly, he makes your wedding feel like it’s the most important event he has that year. He was so attentive was clearly excited to shoot our wedding. We couldn’t recommend him enough!

    Perfect Photographer

    From even before we met in person, we knew that Lev was the perfect photographer to capture the feeling of our wedding day! Thanks to his preparation and vision, we not only have beautiful photos of both me and my wife getting ready with our family but, he was also able to capture the beauty of the venue (including stunning drone shots from up in the clouds). His calm presence helped ensure we were comfortable in front of the camera throughout the day and his friendly demeanor endeared him quickly to our family and friends (leading to a lot of great candid shots)! He scouted scenic locations for us to take photos before the ceremony and was able to capture our expressions of joy both during and after the ceremony! From the first moment at the venue through to some amazing dance floor photos, all of the photos turned out amazing and, they are so easy to access and share with our loved ones! We cannot recommend Lev enough to all of our friends, family, and anyone looking for the perfect photographer to capture their perfect day!

    Exceptional Photos From Lev

    Lev was nothing short of exceptional. We had high hopes at the outset after seeing his beautiful shots of other weddings, and we immediately realized we made the right call with him.

    Not only is he a remarkable photographer, but he made us feel tremendously comfortable (having your photos taken in such a formal environment is a little awkward at first!), which was a huge difference-maker.

    Lev is the best

    Lev was one of the first vendors we hired and it was one of the best decisions we made. His work speaks for itself, but the ease at which he is able to attain these results is incredible. I rarely have my photo taken and do not know my angles or how to pose even for a selfie. I also hate photos that are overly staged or posed, and as a bridesmaid in other weddings I’ve experienced hours of posed wedding party photos, which is just torture. Lev brings photojournalist sensibilities, capturing you and your loved ones candidly, while also hitting all the marks you want, and does it beautifully. I also found Lev to be such a lovely, calming presence to be around - he’s down to earth, fun to talk to, and just a genuine guy. Would hire him again in a heartbeat.

    Stunning photos!!

    Lev was absolutely amazing to work with! While he actually was booked on our wedding date, Lev assigned Jon to shoot our big day – both of who were such rockstars throughout our entire planning process. Lev did an amazing job assisting us leading up to our wedding, always extremely responsive when it came to helping make recommendations on our budget and timeline, and so on. While navigating a tight timeline between getting ready at two different Brooklyn hotels ahead of a wedding in LIC, Jon was so sweet willing to travel to meet us in BK weeks in advance to help scope out locations for our portraits and making recommendations on where/when it made the most sense to capture our full wedding party. Our wedding day went without a hitch, and we’re so thankful for all of Lev’s help leading up, in addition to Jon’s totally calming presence onsite. They truly knocked it out of the park, and we will never get over how amazing our photos turned out!!

    Stunning from start to finish

    To say I’m obsessed with photography would be an understatement. I’m that girl in the friend group who takes *all* the photos of *everything*. So the idea of putting the camera down and trusting someone else was daunting to say the least. Add to that that I’m very particular and really wanted a combination of beautiful, artful shots of myself and my husband and well-crafted, candid shots that helped us relive the entire day and picking a photographer felt pretty overwhelming. Enter Lev. You know when you’re cursing Instagram for only letting you post ten photos at a time? Lev’s photography is likely the reason why. JUST ten photos? How could I possibly pick just ten? The breadth of styles, moments, feels, memories, art that he captures requires far, far more than just a ten photo carousel. We’ve got light, airy, glowy moments beyond what I ever could’ve hoped for (from a location Lev scouted specifically to capture the golden hour he knew meant so much to me). We’ve got crisp, magazine-esque portraits that make us look way better than we actually do. We’ve got tears. We’ve got hugs. We’ve got laughs. We’ve got moments we don’t even remember and all the ones we hoped we’d get so we can remember the day for years to come. To boot, Lev is just a really likable guy. We interviewed a bunch of photographers, some of whom we just didn’t click with, some of whom didn’t feel enthusiastic about our big day. We liked Lev instantly and met up with him for drinks in NYC months after hiring him and left with inside jokes and all. I’ll never see a bottle of sriracha without thinking of Lev Kuperman again. In sum: the only problem with Lev’s photographs is that you’ll spend hours agonizing over which you like the best out of the literal hundreds of incredible options.

    Lev is a legend! Book him TODAY

    We hired Lev for our wedding in June '22 and it was one of the best decisions we made during our planning process. He was super communicative, listened closely to our wishes, prepared us for the big day agenda, and produced some of the best photos we have ever seen! He is a master of his craft and you would be lucky to work with him. Thank you, Lev, for memorializing our special day forever.

    Best wedding photographer in NYC!

    Lev's photography is truly one of a kind. He captured everything so perfectly and was so professional. He got the perfect mixture of "posed" photos and those in between candid moments. He made both of us feel so comfortable around having our photos taken and had a very calming energy. His photography is a great mixture of those "editorial" shots and the classic wedding photos. Our family portraits that he took look almost like an oil painting and are so classic. He is an all around wonderful photographer and we enjoyed working with him very much!

    Lev is a must for your wedding day!

    We highly recommend Lev to shoot your engagement/wedding day. We chose Lev as our photographer because amongst all the cookie cutter photographers and images we saw on Instagram, Lev has a very unique, high end aesthetic. Additionally, he provides a sense of serenity and calmness to his photos, something that was very important to us since we were having a traditional Hindu ceremony. He captured the colors, essence, and special moments throughout our day perfectly, and we are beyond thrilled that we have these images for the rest of our lives. Thank you for all your hard work Lev!

    Working with Lev for our wedding was smooth and seamless. He was very professional and most importantly, his photos from our special day were amazing. The way he captured the moments of love and light is remarkable. These are images we will cherish forever and be able to show to our future generation. Highly recommend!

    Perfect Photographer

    I wish we could give more then 5 stars. Lev Kuperman is an incredible photographer that you would be lucky to have for your wedding or event. Not only is he extremely talented at finding the beauty in every moment, he is also extremely friendly and makes you feel comfortable instantly. You don't need to worry about looking posed, or awkward, he will make anything beautiful and artistic. Lev is an expert who has been doing this for years, so you do not need to worry about him getting the perfect shot. There is not one photo from our Wedding that we are not obsessed with. We couldn't recommend Lev and his team any more!

    Lev is the best!!

    We could not recommend Lev more!! We knew we were immediately done looking for photographers the minute we got off our call with Lev - he was so warm and seemed so down to earth. He cared about getting to know us and we genuinely wanted to hang out with him as a person - which is a great quality to have in a wedding photographer since that's who you are spending a majority of your day with :). That warmth came through on the day of - he was so awesome and easy to work with, and his second photographer was also so great!

    Lev was so supportive and professional in the lead up to the day, checking in and making sure we were aligned on everything. I really wanted a photographer who would not do any corny wedding photos and could capture the love in the room and Lev did just that! Each photo is perfection. I go back to the album every week and have new favorites. Incredible artist who know what he's doing + a genuinely wonderful and kind person - 10/10 recommend!!

    Lev is the Best

    We would recommend Lev to anyone, any day of the year, whole heartedly and with no reservations. His skill and professionalism were a-plus, and his photos speak for themselves. But more than that, Lev was kind and warm and personable and helped us enjoy ourselves through our whole weekend celebration. We could not imagine a better photographer and partner for the weekend!

    Perfect Match for Your Big Day

    Lev possesses the rare combination of absolute professionalism coupled with a casual, warm presence. It's hard to think of a better fusion of qualities when putting together your 'inner circle' on such an important day. From our first conversation, it was clear that he cared. He cares about his craft, his client's vision, and the inherent responsibility of capturing memories.

    Did I mention his photos? What an incredible artist. The warmth, emotion, and energy captured in every image is a direct result of his ability to connect with a moment in time. He knows when to step in, and when to step back, in order to get the perfect shot.

    We look forward to calling in Lev to help capture all of our life's special moments, and can't recommend him enough as a photographer and person.

    Professional, prompt and calm!

    Loved working with Lev for our wedding photography. He was easy to work with, prompt, calm, and offered a lot of great suggestions for where to do the photography in the middle of NYC. We appreciated his direction as it was one less decision-making tasks to do on the day of our wedding.

    Lev is an incredible artist

    Lev is without a doubt one of the most talented photographers we've ever met. He made what otherwise could have been an incredibly anxiety provoking day into the easiest and happiest day ever. More importantly than anything, his work is truly art, We printed one photo on metal and hung it in our apartment and pretty every guest asks us where we bought the incredible print.

    An incredible wedding photographer!

    Working with Lev was a truly fantastic experience from start to finish. We were blown away by his professionalism, warmth, support, and of course, his photos. Lev is such an easy, joyful person to be around, we felt lucky to have him around us on our wedding day. He blended into the whole event seamlessly- he gave us, and our guests, space to enjoy the special moments while still capturing them. He quickly scouted great spots for our portraits, spots we would never have thought of, and are now the beautiful backgrounds of our most cherished photos. He gave us some great direction when we needed it, but mostly let us be us and made us look great! We ended up with a beautiful collection of wedding photos that we couldn't love or treasure more! You really cannot go wrong with Lev on your team.

    Don't forget that as a bride and groom/bride and bride/groom and groom, you spend a lot of time with your wedding photographer. They're with you for your first looks, your first moments as a married couple, many moments where it will be just the three of you. It's important to work with someone who is going to compliment your moments, and not control them. That's one of the reasons we loved working with Lev, he complimented all our moments without controlling them. He really respected our day, and let that come first- it meant a lot to us! We can't wait to work with Lev again.

    Calming, professional and knew what they were doing type of guys!

    It has been a little bit over a month since our wedding and we are finally settling into married life.... wow, what a crazy year it has been!

    I found Lev by searching the web and seeing other photographers I follow on Insta who follow each other. The moment I saw Lev’s photos, I fell in love with them and knew I had to have him shoot our wedding. I wanted our wedding photos to feel different and not the typical cheesy wedding stuff and his work is spot on. It is important to invest in the photography for your wedding - it is the one memory keepsake you will have forever to show your children and grandchildren one day. Lev is on the higher priced side - but he is a boutique photographer and worth every penny!

    Lev was amazing from the start! He was one of the first vendors we booked and by the end, he was one of the only original vendors we kept with.

    My husband and I planned a large unique wedding in NYC a year before our wedding date of 10.3.20. Everything was done and set. Then the pandemic hit in March and the world got weird. We had no idea what was going to happen, but we were hopeful we could still have our October 2020 wedding as originally planned. Well, we were so wrong and naïve about it all.

    By August we still had no idea what we were going to do. There was so much back and forth between my husband and I on deciding what to do. We then came to the decision of canceling our wedding completely, then changing our minds to postponing it to next year, but what if nothing changes, we then waited for what? In the end, we really just wanted to get married, so we disinvited a 150 people and planned an entire new COVID wedding at a location where our summer house is on Shelter Island, NY in just 40 days for 50 people (and with no wedding planner)!

    Lev was very patient with us through of all this and was down to even travel out for the night to shoot the wedding!

    Day of the wedding, Lev showed up with his videographer John (who was also amazing). They were the most calming, professional and knew what they were doing type of guys. We planned with Lev, the schedule for day of ahead of time and he was on it. We even discussed ahead of time some of the locations around the island to shoot. We loved that they took the time before our start time to go scout out some of the locations we mentioned and got familiar with the island.

    Best sides the actual moment of getting married, the best part of that day was when my husband and I were just shooting alone with Lev and John around the island. I was so nervous because I wasn’t used to getting glammed up and having my photos taken, but they made us feel comfortable, relaxed and we kind of just forgot what we were doing and had fun with it.

    A week after the wedding, Lev sent some highlight photos to preview — and OMG we were blown away! It was everything and more than we expected!

    We cannot wait to see the full wedding album and our wedding video! Even though it is a long process to wait for the full wedding album and video, we know Lev is taking the time to make every attention to detail perfect.

    The day of went by so fast, but we are so happy we have beautiful photos to look back on now. Thank you, Lev and John, for capturing our special day!

    Best. Decision. Ever.

    Wow. We cannot recommend Lev highly enough. When we were considering wedding photographers, we were drawn to Lev because we loved the aesthetic of his work. But we came to realize that Lev’s ability to make you feel comfortable and completely at ease is part of the secret that enables Lev to beautifully capture each moment. After spending time with Lev for an engagement shoot and the morning of our wedding day, we came to view Lev less like a photographer at our wedding and more like a friend :) Our wedding photos turned out even more beautiful than we could have anticipated — he was truly able to capture the intimacy and feeling of the day, and I grin ear-to-ear whenever I look at them. I was never the type of person to frame lots of photos of us, but I loved SO many photos shot by Lev that I seriously struggled to decide which ones to frame because they’re all so amazing. Lev’s team also did videography work for us, and the end product (in our case, a 3 to 5 minute video set to music) was truly stunning and was widely circulated among our friends and family. He made us look like movie stars! If, in addition to hiring a photographer, you are considering hiring a videographer, then look no further than Lev and his team. Again, we would give Lev our strongest endorsement - there is no one better and it was seriously one of the best decisions we made!!
