    Simply the best!

    Weddings by Nato were our photo and video team for our wedding and they were just amazing. They brought this incredible energy that just made the day even more special. And as the bride, I loved how they managed to be everywhere but still gave me my space. It was like magic. They totally got us. It was like they could read our minds and knew exactly what me and my husband were dreaming of for our day. They were all over the place capturing everything but somehow never in the way. They made us feel so comfortable, it was like having friends around who just happened to be super talented with cameras.The photos and videos came out perfectly. Every single moment that meant the world to us was captured so beautifully. We've been looking back on them, and every time it's like we're reliving the day, emotions and all. It’s just so special to have these memories captured so perfectly. They’ll blow your expectations out of the water!

    Wouldn't change a single thing!

    Here's the thing, my wife and I left no stone unturned prior to choosing our wedding photo + video team. It wasn't until our initial call with Nato that we finally felt excited; we knew we found someone that got us. Not only were we drawn to Nato's work (it speaks for itself!), she made us feel comfortable and seamlessly fit into our planning process... I'd be remiss if I didn't share what's (hopefully) now a funny story to highlight her professionalism, kindness, and understanding --

    Nato graciously agreed to capture our EARLY morning sunrise vows with photo & video -- The night prior, Nato called, texted, and even emailed us to confirm timing, location, and tracked the incoming storms to time it just right. Unbeknownst to us, we did not have cell service at our welcome party venue and essentially ghosted Nato until 11:30pm the night before!!!! After a flurry of emails, apologies, and reassuring her that "no, we did not call off our wedding!", she arrived the next morning all smiles and we shared a laugh. From that moment, Nato didn't feel like our photographer, she felt like a friend. That same comfort and ease continued into the rest of our wedding day.

    Nato, Jenny, Miria, and Dan created magic, kept us laughing, and the emotion in our photos/video prove just that. We're so grateful we get to relive those moments of authenticity because of their approach. The emotion is palpable in every. single. one.

    Everyone from our families, event coordinators, and friends were blown away by their presence and the end results. We wouldn't change a single thing. Thank you will never be enough! To see more (+ video): @kmjosef

    Thank you Nato Tuke!

    This was one of our favorite vendors we got to work with for our wedding. Nato and Miria were amazing to work with. They were both friendly and communicative throughout the whole process and completely understood our vision. Miria made us feel so comfortable while shooting our engagement and wedding photos. She absolutely nailed the vibe we were going for. Our wedding photos are so gorgeous and truly capture all the love and warmth we wanted them to. Thank you so much Nato and Miria for capturing our special day

    Very fun engagement shoot

    My partner and I met with Joe to take engagement photos. He was responsive and punctual, and super sweet. We were nervous and a little awkward in front of the camera but he made us feel very comfortable! Together we sipped coffee, ate croissants and wandered around Brooklyn looking for the best local murals to take pictures in front of. The turnaround for the photos was much faster than we had anticipated and we love them! Highly recommend!

    Highly Recommend Weddings by Nato

    Had an absolutely fantastic experience with Weddings by Nato on my wedding day. We were with Nato's associate, Miria, for about 5 hours and she made the most of every minute. Despite freezing cold rain, and a tiny hotel room to get ready in, the photos turned out better than I could have ever expected.
    To start with, Nato sent a questionnaire months before that covered literally EVERYthing - from the exact family photos we wanted, the couples photos, the vibe we were going for, -- you name it. I felt so prepared going in on the actual day (which is truly a blessing when you are inevitably feeling overwhelmed!).
    Miria had a great eye and really made me feel calm and joyful while we were walking around Brooklyn taking photos. So many people commented that you could tell how much she cared.
    All in all - an extremely seamless, detail-oriented, and fun process that allowed my husband and I to relax and enjoy the day. These are not your typical photographers... they are artists. And they will provide you with something truly unique and beautiful that you will cherish forever.

    Amazing Experience from Start to Finish!

    There's a reason that Nato and her team are some of the most sought after wedding photographers in the city, my wife and I's photos turned out nothing short of incredible.

    Our photographer was super gracious and accommodating to our friends and family's requests (including me annoyingly asking to have pics taken at a local dive bar, haha) -- Highly recommend adding either film or video packages as they are worth every penny as well.

    If you're on the fence, Nato's portfolio and expertise speaks for itself!

    The best of the best and your new bff's

    To say Nato is the best wedding photographer/videographer out there is the biggest understatement of all time. My wedding photos came out spectacular, despite the pivot to the rain plan because it poured all day. Nato's team was so responsive throughout the whole process, they were like my BEST FRIENDS on site the day of, and made the experience so fun AS AN ADDITION to the best wedding photos I could have possibly imagined. If you want to see more, go to my instagram @kellygracemae where you can also see the video because it's bananas. it's so good. I can't recommend them more. I love Nato

    Absolutely Breathtaking Wedding Photography

    I recently hired this wedding photography team to shoot several small celebratory dinners for my wedding and I am blown away by their talent. From the very first dinner, they captured every special moment and detail with such artistry and beauty. Their attention to lighting and composition is truly unparalleled and it shows in every single photo. Not only that, but they were so kind and professional throughout the entire process. They made the experience enjoyable and stress-free for me and my husband. We are so grateful to have these stunning photos to look back on and relive the memories of our special day. Thank you to this talented team for exceeding all of our expectations!

    A dream to work with and an artist with capturing light

    We absolutely could not recommend her/her team enough. If you have an INKLING that Weddings by Nato are you people, YOU NEED TO GO FOR IT. So, so special to work with Nato: she is someone who has fully come into her gift behind the lens. She manages to transform casual moments into something artful, elevated, and gorgeous. But somehow, those same photos also capture the joy and feeling of the moment: the place, the vibes, and the people, like a precious memory capsule. How does she do it?! I also wouldn't describe myself as comfortable in front of the camera. But working with Nato was so fun and easy: she has an eye finding and capturing the most beautiful, natural moments as they come.

    On top of all of that, Nato is so responsive, professional, organized, and thoughtful. You know that she and her team have GOT YOU the whole time, like your coolest and most dependable friend.

    Purely magical!

    Everything Nato and her team touch is pure magic!!!! They are the absolute KINDEST people and make the whole process from booking, to engagement photos and the wedding day incredibly stress free. Their presence made us feel so at ease and comfortable that the whole day felt very natural like we were simply amongst friends. We couldn't be more thrilled with the sneak peek from our wedding day, the photos are absolutely stunning, and there is still so much more to come!! For us, booking Nato was a no-brainer—and it should be for you too.

    Amazing Photos Capturing Our Magical Wedding!!

    Working with Nato and the team was enjoyable from start to finish! Gui is the lead associate and did our engagement shoot and wedding. He did an incredible job making us feel comfortable and capturing the energy of the whole day from start to finish. The wedding was flawless and we are so so happy to have it all captured in the best moments in these photos. Would highly recommend Nato and her team!!

    Weddings by Nato Made Our Dreams Come True

    Wow, where to even begin?

    The entire team: Nato, Dan and Mary were absolute rockstars and professionals who captured every precious moment of our special day with grace, innovation and creativity. From the pre-wedding jitters, to the sanctimonious ceremony, to the eclecltic reception celebrations - they were there for every step of the way. We were completely blown away at how this team rolled with the punches and handled every shift in energy (big and small) with the utmost grace and creativity.

    While we knew that Nato and her team were talented, our final photos and videos turned out far better than we could have ever imagined. These snapshots and footage are a collection of moments frozen in time that we will cherish forever! With every glance and watch, we found ourselves laughing, crying, and reminiscing over the absolute magic of the day.

    Beyond the quality of their content, Nato and her team were an absolute joy to work with from inception to finish. Throughout the entire experience, we were made to way feel comfortable and at ease, even in the most trying and stressful of circumstances. The team was patient, kind, and reassuring, ultimately making us feel comfortable and special throughout the entire day.

    It goes without saying: we highly recommend Nato to any creative and cool couple looking for professional content during their big day. Thank you Nato & team for going above and beyond to make our day absolutely unforgettable! We feel so lucky to have had you as part of our celebration!

    Amazing Photos

    Nato and her team are simply the best. From our first interactions we knew that they were the perfect fit for what we were looking for in our wedding and engagement photos! Nato listens to what clients are looking for and provides honest answers to what she can and will provide.

    100000/10 FOR NATO + TEAM!!!

    Nato and her team are seriously rockstars!!! They are so professional and so great at capturing the most special moments. Nato made us feel so comfortable and calm, just an absolute pleasure to work with! She is talented beyond belief and photographed our natural, genuine selves so beautifully. Once we got our photos back from the engagement shoot, we exclaimed “omg we’ve never looked cooler!!!” And when we got our wedding photos back we were blown away, she delivers unbelievable work and has a great eye for the most memorable moments and settings. Overall, we would HIGHLY recommend Nato and her team without hesitation, 100000/10, we are over the moon!

    I love Weddings by Nato so much I wish I had more events to book them for!!!

    Choosing Weddings By Nato was hands down one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Nato & her team are truly such talented, amazing people. They were so professional as well as so kind and helpful throughout the day. We could just tell throughout the day that our photos and video were going to come out amazing. I cant recommend using Weddings By Nato enough. In fact, my sisters wedding is in a few months and she also booked them and now I am even more pumped knowing they will be there!!!! On a day that is so stressful due to so much going it’s great to know you can trust / relax when it comes to the photo and video thanks to Weddings by Nato. You can also tell how much Nato cares about her clients. She was so genuinely sweet and communicated with me throughout the process from booking to the wedding to edits. She is a superstar. I will always have Nato in mind for photography/video now & wish I had more events to book her for!!!! She is the best!!!

    Literally perfect

    I couldn’t be happier with our wedding photos and overall experience with Nato throughout this process. She was just the calming energy we needed amongst the chaos! We are not used to being in front of the camera and she made us feel so comfortable. Our photos came out natural and not forced or in weird “wedding” poses, which is exactly what we wanted! We love you Nato!!

    The best!!!

    Now, let me start off by saying.... Nato is probably the sweetest, most talented, and professional photographer in the game!! She is an artist by nature, and a natural behind the camera. Nato made us feel so comfortable and guided us like a fairy god-mother, throughout the whole process and on the big day.

    We received our sneak peeks and SO excited to see the rest of the photos!!! She certainly exceeded our expectations and more. We highly recommend her services 1000000%!!!

    Captured our wedding day beautifully!!

    Choosing Nato for our wedding was 10000% the right choice! One of her associates Miria was our photographer for our wedding on 9/3/22 in upstate NY near the Catskills. Miria was so sweet, energetic, dedicated and personable. Throughout all of our photos on the big day she made them fun, easy and natural. None of it felt awkward or forced it was genuinely a good time shooting all of our pictures! She captured so many emotional, funny & happy moments that I didn't even realize until seeing them in photos. She really made our wedding day tell an amazing story through her photography. During the wedding planning process Nato was VERY responsive. Any questions I had she answered and was so helpful. I love how Nato is able to edit photos in so many different ways to make them all feel a certain mood/tell a story. I can't recommend her and her company enough!! xo

    One of the best decisions we ever made!

    Hiring Nato and her team was by far one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the very start, Nato was extremely responsive and made us feel very comfortable with her direction and recommendations. On our wedding day, Joe was the most professional, creative, and joyful photographer. We felt extremely comfortable all day and his direction was flawless. Once we received our sneak peek our jaws dropped. Every single moment of the day was captured to perfection. When we received our final pictures, we had tears in our eyes going through all the pictures. Everything was perfect across the board and there is still not a day that goes by that we don't look at our photos. If you want the best experience from a photographer from start to finish, look no further than Nato and her team.

    Simply the Best!

    Working with Nato was simply amazing. She was super easy to get a hold of and she worked work with our day of coordinator, so we knew we were in good hands. Her personality really shined the day of. She was super easy to work with and we had tons of fun taking photos around the venue. She was very knowledgeable of the area and took amazing and unique photos!!! Nobody wants the boring standard wedding photos and I can promise you that you will not get those with Nato. Choosing Nato to be our wedding photographer was one of our best decisions!!

    Hire Nato for the best wedding photos!

    I am speechless! We just received a sneak preview of our photos and they are stunning! Nato is so talented!

    I was super concerned of the following (before booking a photographer):
    - candid / fly-on-the-wall photos typically don’t work well with me!
    - the photographer taking too long with the family shots or with couple shots which takes time out of my big day.

    I had none of these issues with Nato! She is very professional, well prepared and most impressively- she is patient with everyone! I HIGHLY recommend booking Nato for your wedding if you want to have the most beautiful and well edited photos to hold onto!
    I feel so so lucky to have these photos as my wedding photos that I get to keep forever! Thank you Nato!!!

    - if you want to see just how amazing her work is, check out her Instagram and website, your photos will turn out as well as those!

    Great Videographer

    Nato was recommended to us by our wedding photographer to shoot our video. While we didn’t originally plan to have a videographer, we’re happy we ultimately decided to hire one. Nato was professional and responsive. Even though she wasn’t there on the day of our wedding, she sent us the more than capable Dan and Miria, who shot everything beautifully. Within a few months we had our video and we couldn’t be happier. I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking to capture quality video of their special day!

    Amazing Experience

    Working with Nato and Gui was truly an amazing experience. Gui shot our wedding and was so easy going and flexible throughout the whole day. We hadn't met him before which could have been an awkward; but he really walked the perfect line of professionalism and friendliness that put us at ease instantly. He gave us direction when needed, but was like a fly on the wall when capturing intimate moments perfectly.

    Nato was extremely responsive and the turn around time for our wedding photos was incredible! During an insanely busy wedding season we were prepared to wait a while for our pictures to come back; but she sent them within a matter of weeks and we could not be happier!! We are truly blown away and are having the hardest time choosing our favorites to print!

    I cannot recommend working with Weddings by Nato enough!

    A husband that felt the need to write this one

    I wasn't super involved in booking various vendors in the early stages of our wedding planning (my wife is a gal who knows what she wants). If she felt strongly about someone, I knew she had done her research and that they were probably as good as it gets - vetted through back-door contacts and painstakingly deliberated in our apartment, by then a makeshift Churchill War Room. So I was unsurprised to come on this site and see Nato had 132 5 star reviews. Not a single one less than a 5. If you need to keep searching after seeing that, then you're probably the kind of person that spends 45 minutes searching for a breakfast sandwich on a Saturday morning, comes across a well received 4.5, pauses and thinks, SURELY I can do better. But let me tell you, in the photography and videography department, you must stop here. With Nato, there is no better. My knowledge of photography is limited to the ability to look at a great picture and acknowledge 2 things - 1. I cannot do that and 2. that is an incredible photo. Such is the case with everything that Nato produced during the entirety of our wedding. Even better than her (and her team's) talent behind the camera, is how genuinely wonderful they are as people. We had our engagement photos in the aforementioned Churchill War Rooms. It can be tough to feel relaxed or have fun during a shoot like that. But she is just so damn good at making you feel at ease and brings out the best in you as a couple. Candid gets thrown around a bit cavalierly, but every photo Nato takes is as if a camera had never been there at all. Go with Nato. Opt for the video. Don't overthink this one.

    The best!!

    From the beginning, Nato was super professional and easy to work with. We ended up having her lead associate Gui, shoot our wedding and he was fantastic. He made us feel comfortable and we had fun which is not always the case when you’re taking photos for hours at a time. Highly recommended Nato and her company. The photos turned out beautiful and we are so happy! Xo
