    The best wedding photography experience you could ask for!

    We were so happy we chose Megan Antalek Photography for our wedding! It was everything we wanted in a wedding photography experience: easy communication, reliable planning and prep, and a wonderful presence on the day of the wedding. Megan is amazing to hang out with, and blends in so naturally even among the hustle and bustle of a wedding day! She and her partner capture every aspect of the day that you want documented with ease and grace. I think one of her greatest strengths is in helping pose and arrange photos while still maintaining a natural feel and avoiding the awkward stiff posed portrait experience. We got to enjoy the day and relax knowing it was all being captured beautifully. She got some sneak peak photos too us withing days, and our full gallery in just a few weeks! I was amazed and thrilled at how fast we got our photos and how incredible they are :) I would use Megan Antalek Photography again in a heartbeat, and I would recomend them to anyone!

    Best wedding photographer ever!!

    Megan was an absolute delight to work with during our wedding. She made the entire process fun, educational, and relaxing. She offered us amazing advice, coached us into the perfect poses, and her vibe was an immaculate mix of professional powerhouse and best friend forever. AND OUR PICTURES! STUNNING, ADORABLE, TREASURED FOREVER! We couldn’t have asked for more and we loved working with her almost as much as we love each other. We would hire her again and again. All gold stars, A++, 10/10, two thumbs (and a wedding ring finger) up!!

    Fast and Quality!

    Megan was absolutely amazing to work with! She was so easy to communicate with and she always was good about getting back to me, even during busy season. I am very awkward and she made me feel so comfortable during the engagement photos and on the wedding day! She was great with directing how to pose and make it feel normal and natural. She knew how to get all the little details and big moments!
    We had our wedding inside a darker venue with really no natural like. The photos were beautiful and had no shadows! I can’t express how much I love our photos!
    She also gave us all our photos within a month, yes a month of the wedding!! It was amazing to relive the wedding so quickly!!
    Highly recommend Megan for your wedding!

    Vendor who became a friend - but also AMAZING vendor

    Megan was one of our first vendors booked outside of the venue and I'm 99% sure I checked to make sure she had our date (booked June 2020 for October 2022) available or I would've changed our date. I had been following her for a while online and just loved her work and personality. She would do live pop ups on her insta stories and just had that type of personality you want to be around just makes you feel good-- and who doesn't want to feel good day of? Megan went beyond that she made us feel good the entire planning process, any questions were answered almost immediately or within a very timely manner. I had done another shoot with her with her boudoir business and after that I knew without a doubt she was who I wanted to photograph our wedding- I knew before that but until you meet someone because THANKS COVID we had to have our meetings via facetime. The sneaks she provided to us last night literally made me cry. They are fantastic. She is fantastic. I don't live in Rochester but knew she was who I wanted and I had to have her. I HIGHLY suggest if you come across this fantastic womans page to book her ASAP before she's booked solid because she is phenomenal at her job and will book up quickly. I am so glad to call her a friend now and to still get to talk with her after our wedding. She is literally the happiest human I know and brightens every room. She was so efficient day of the wedding I felt like we lost no time with guests because of how well oiled her and her second shooter aka her husband are. My family who can be quite critical have all had nothing but rave reviews. Once again if you have the opportunity to have Megan be your photographer- take it. Because I have a feeling you'll fall in love with her (and her husband) like we did.

    The most magical experience

    Our experience was seamless and beyond what we ever expected. From our engagement photos to the days leading up to the wedding. The communication was quick and we were able to get all the shots and more. My expectations were blown way above what I thought could even be possible. My husband and I felt so comfortable from the very beginning, just being ourselves. We now have the most incredible photos & video and can’t thank Megan and Adam enough. I wish I could relive our wedding day over and over and our photos help me do that. Cannot wait for my future maternity shoot because I WILL be
    traveling to NY for the one and only. Thank you soo much!!!

    The very very best!

    From our engagement session, to my boudoir shoot, to my wedding day. Megan is extremely talented at achieving BEAUTIFUL, joyful, colorful photos that really capture the energy and spirit of the moment. Most importantly, she herself is an incredible spirit that makes you feel empowered and comfortable! Wedding days of course can be stressful, especially when the weather acts up, but in those moments it is so important to have professionals that keep the joy buzzing, and that is Megan! Megan and Adam both brought joy, calm, and ability to keep capturing all the special moments. Any photo I had requested before she made sure got or asked if I wanted it captured. From booking her is 2020 to my wedding day, she has been organized, uplifting, and able to be a light. Please book Megan! She is quite simply the best, and truly a fun, overachiever in every sense of the word!

    Megan is Amazing!!!

    Megan helped capture our Wedding Day wonderfully! From the start, she was professional, excited for us and gave great advice as we planned our day. She was super flexible and helped us feel at ease leading up to our big day with many calls! She helped ensure we got all the shots we hoped for despite four rainstorms throughout the day. I would absolutely recommend Megan to be part of your Wedding Day!

    Megan was a pleasure to work with from start to finish!

    Where to begin! Megan was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. My husband and I (mostly me!) fell in love with her colorful and animated images and, after our first consultation via Zoom, with Megan as well. Megan is easy to talk with and, as we learned during our engagement shoot, is skilled at putting couples at ease in front of the camera. Specifically, she directed us to strike poses that photograph well, without making us feel awkward or forced. She also injected humor in the process, which resulted in (organic!) laughs that look lovely in photos. Not only does Megan excel at portraiture, she also has an artistic eye and is able to capture details, landscapes, and candids that transport you to the time and place captured. Megan is also a consummate professional - she is fair, communicates effectively, and delivered on everything outlined in our contract.

    I would be remiss if we didn’t mention Adam! We also worked with Megan’s husband Adam Antalek for videography. You can see how these two are a perfect match as they work seamlessly together and both have a great sense of humor and positive attitude. Adam’s work is pristine. My husband cried at the office while watching Adam’s highlight video…as you can imagine the video truly captured the essence of the day.

    In the midst of our wedding planning, a recently married friend likened weddings to “a days-long photoshoot.” I am pleased to report that, although Megan and Adam delivered all of the images we hoped for and more, not once did the day feel close to a photoshoot. It was the happiest and most special day of both of our lives and wouldn’t have been the same without these two. Thank you Megan and Adam!

    The BEST photographer, no really!!

    I could go on and on and on about how much we loved having Megan as our photographer. She became more than just a vendor to us over the two years we spent getting to know her between our proposal (which she photographed) and wedding day; she feels like a true friend. Megan's husband, Adam, was our second photographer and he is just as wonderful. They make a great team! Megan is the kind of person who makes you feel so comfortable and at ease, even on the most important day of your life. We felt so calm during our photos and she really made those moments relaxed and enjoyable for us. The smiles and laughs in our photos are genuine because she is so fun to be around. We aren't used to getting our pictures taken but she made it feel natural. On top of providing an amazing experience, she also provided gorgeous photos that we will treasure for the rest of our lives. We loved how she captured not only us as a couple, but also the venue, our friends, decorations, flowers, people dancing, etc. She recommended watching our photos in slideshow mode with a glass of wine, which is exactly what we did, and it felt like we truly got to relive our day. If you want a photographer with the sweetest personality, most incredible attention to detail, and stunning creative ability, you HAVE to work with Megan! Photos are the one part of your day that you get to cherish forever and Megan is the perfect person to give you that gift.

    Megan is fantastic!

    Megan Antalek is a wonderful, professional, energetic, bubbly person who makes being the center of attention a whole lot less awkward! She made the whole wedding process a breeze and sent us a cute welcome package when we booked her. She is down to earth and our photos from the engagement session to the wedding are amazing and a dream come true! She and her husband are great photographers and I would recommend her to everyone I know! Thank you Megan so much for making our photos and experience amazing

    “Megan is so easy to smile for!”

    Megan has a unique ability to be able to make any doubt and stress of a busy day fade away. She is a clear expert in her field but this didn’t stop her from taking our wishes and our personalities into consideration while shooting. All of our shoots felt effortless, fun, and filled with love!! My husband, who is a little camera shy, even said “Megan is so easy to smile for.”

    I recommend Megan to anyone, for any meaningful occasion!

    Where to start

    I quite literally can't even begin to tell you all how much you should hire Megan. We just did our engagement shoot today and while we haven't done the wedding obviously we could not stop talking about her on our drive home. I knew for at least a good year before even getting engaged that I wanted Megan to photograph us and our wedding. She made us feel like we actually had any clue to what we were doing and feeling good while doing it. My fiance said it best on the drive home saying she's professional but not rigid or harsh. She's so friendly and I wish we lived closer because I had an absolute freaking blast with her today. I can only imagine the glowing review this could have become if we did it after we saw our photos, but even the quick glimpse she showed us on her camera we feel so so confident that she'll deliver more than we could even expect.

    Look no further - Team Antalek is the best!!

    I can’t express how highly I recommend this business to capture your wedding day ❤️. Megan & Adam are the ultimate photographer / videographer team! Megan is so incredibly sweet and bubbly, and she made all of our experiences fun and easy. Her package includes an engagement session, which was the perfect way for us to get to know each other well before the big day. Megan knew exactly what types of photos we were looking for, and she has such a great eye for that beautiful lighting & the perfect candids. We were so thrilled with the final results, which were delivered less than a month after our wedding day!

    If you’re also looking for a videographer as well, she offers a great deal to work with her husband Adam, and it’s absolutely worth it! He compiled the most beautiful footage of our day in a highlight reel, and provided all of the raw footage of the big moments as well.

    Both are such incredibly talented, amazing people - 1000% book them for your wedding!!

    Absolutely stunning photos!

    We had an outstanding experience with Megan! From my first phone call with Megan, I knew that she would be so much fun and would make sure that things ran smoothly throughout my day. We thoroughly enjoyed our engagement shoot that was free as part of our package; this truly made us feel so much more comfortable with taking pictures so that it would all feel natural on our wedding day. On our wedding day itself, both her and Adam captured all of the pictures that we had requested and did a phenomenal job of efficiently taking all of our portraits without feeling rushed. We loved our first look and had so much fun taking our pictures; they made the whole experience feel natural. We sadly had the rain start coming down part way through our pictures, which turned into heavy rain, yet they continued to take our pictures despite getting slightly drowned themselves in order to capture more shots for us in the vineyard. Our pictures turned out absolutely GORGEOUS despite the rain, I have no idea how they did it but wow. The colors are unbelievable in our sunset photos as well. Our sneak peek consisted of 50 photos which made me super excited, and 3.5 weeks after our wedding, we had our full gallery. I am totally obsessed with our photos and still have no idea how I am going to narrow all of these hundreds of amazing photos down to a reasonable number for our album. I am so glad that we chose Megan and am so thankful to have all of these wonderful memories captured forever.

    Megan is top notch when it comes to a quality photographer!

    If you could list off positive attributes, any of them would describe Megan. She is dedicated, hard working, pays attention to detail, focused, enthusiastic, fun, etc. I’ve known Megan since high school & photography has always been her passion. On your wedding day Megan will make sure she captures any special moment you can imagine before you even think of it. She’s always ten steps ahead and prepared. Megan is flexible & always prepared to think on the fly if you have an idea or sporadic change of plans. After the wedding Megan had our gallery ready so incredibly soon & even sent us a sweet wedding gift. I even had a request after viewing my gallery for something to be photoshopped & she had no hesitation to make my photos everything I wanted them to be. Megan even teams up with her husband who films videography. Together, they are a power couple who excel not only at their jobs but making your day SO MUCH FUN!!

    Perfect Photographer!

    Megan was the best! We set up an initial phone call to discuss wedding details, what I was looking for, etc. The wedding/reception package I chose also included her husband doing photography for part of the day and an engagement session. She was quick to respond whenever there was a question and she had a questionnaire to complete before the wedding to get all the wedding timeline details down and a list of all of the photos for family and friends we wanted. We received so many photos back, it was worth it! She was the sweetest and so outgoing and easy to work with. I would recommend her to everyone!! I will be using her again in the future for photos that we need done!

    Highly recommend Megan!

    We decide to do our wedding photos the week before the wedding and we couldn't be happier with the results. Everyone looked amazing and she captured the love between my husband and I. Getting the link to photos and seeing them all made my day.

    She was professional and fun (and was very patient with my whole family watching for the first half!). She gave great direction on poses and was happy to hear ideas that we had. My only regret is that I didn't hire her for the day-of too!

    Holy Cannoli what a wonderful Photographer!

    Our experience with Megan was amazing. We were so comfortable getting our photos done thanks to Megan's professionalism and sense of humor. She was great with the families and did an overall spectacular job. The product that was delivered was beyond our expectations and we're so lucky to have such beautiful photos to remember our wedding day. Stop looking for your Wedding photographer because you just found her!

    Positive, easy, very satisfied!

    We can’t say enough good things about Megan! We loved our engagement pictures and are obsessed with the pictures we got from our small ceremony this year. Megan is so easy to work with. She is flexible, positive and supportive. The pictures are amazing! So clear, crisp and the color is amazing. She is so talented. I would recommend her to anyone!

    Highly recommend Megan!!

    Megan and Adam went above and beyond anything we could have dreamed of! Our photos came out BEAUTIFULLY. The amount of detail and time that Megan took was top notch. So many wedding guests commented how interactive and great she was getting the perfect shot and got some awesome candids. For our engagement shoot, Megan made us feel so comfortable and at ease and even included our pups in our photos! I could not recommend Megan enough, there is no way you would be disappointed.

    The best!

    I don't even know where to start with Megan- she is literally the best!! Megan's wedding package came with an engagement session, which was a great way to get to know her amazing, bubbly personality- she made us feel so comfortable and we were really looking forward to wedding day! 6 months before our wedding, COVID hit and our plans were constantly changing based on NYS regulations. My husband and I reached out to Megan multiple times with changes and she was MORE than understanding and accommodating. We ended up choosing to split our wedding day into two parts (ceremony day in 2020, reception in 2021). Megan was so professional throughout the process and made sure to send us an addendum to our contract when we made a change. On top of her professionalism, she never failed to make sure we felt that our day was going to be special regardless of COVID throwing a wrench in our plans! When it came to ceremony day, Megan managed to make our day SO special. Everyone she took photos of felt so comfortable and natural in front of her camera! It was an amazing day. Finally, when it comes to her photos themselves, her work is BEAUTIFUL. We have gotten nothing, but compliments on how amazing our pictures turned out and we are so so pleased. Added bonus- she was able to give us a preview album within a week, and she delivered ALL of our photos in 14 days!!!! I can't promise this is the case for every wedding (our contract stated within 6-8 weeks), but we were stunned with how fast she delivered our package with her top quality editing. If you want a photographer with the best personality and quality photos, Megan is 100% your girl!!
