Amazing attention to detail and fun!

We are so so so so so pleased with how everything turned out! We can not thank you enough for how much you cared for our special day. I know we were running a bit behind because of the bridal party and some tardies but I am just so grateful to you for how you handled everything. I appreciate you so much for your patience!
Frank, I personally felt like you were a special dad who cared about every single detail! Thank you for being so loving and kind in our direction even as you ran the show so strategically and with much care. I can't believe how much work there is to do and you knew exactly how to direct everyone and how to proceed with next steps. You moved so quickly though none of this felt rushed. We also felt that you cared and knew where and how to take the best shots! Wow! I loved our photoshoot outside as well! It was amazing the way that you knew what and how we could do to make each shot better.

Luiza, I know it must have been so much work especially with the bridal party but I really appreciate you so much for being super flexible and so creative with my bridal pre-dress photos. My bridesmaids and I had so much fun. Thank you! It was also such a pleasure to work with Teddy working on video with making sure he captured those really great shots. We appreciate his direction so much and his attention and care to detail all night. It was also a plus that he spoke Spanish as my parents are mainly Spanish speakers.

Thank you for being a wonderful team. Thank you for making us feel at home in your work, especially for some of us folks who aren't used to so many photos being taken. You made it possible for us!
Thank you so much! You all are a wonderful group of people, a wonderful team! Hope you keep on making more couples and their families happy with the work you're doing.

Frank and his team are wonderful! They captured our day perfectly and were so attentive to our needs during the album making/editing portion of the material. I highly Recommend them!

They are the very best! Do not hesitate!

Choosing Natural Expressions was one of the best decisions we made for our daughter's wedding. Frank and his team are true professionals and were a pleasure to work with from start to finish. The photographs, videos, and albums are all beautiful and captured every aspect of the event. The experience was 100 percent terrific, and we highly recommend!

Amazing Wedding Photography / Videography

We worked with Natural Expressions NY for our wedding photography and videography. If you have the opportunity to work with Frank and the team – you absolutely must do it.

From the very first meeting, Frank and the team were unbelievably responsive, helpful, professional and friendly. We hit it off with the team on the initial zoom meeting and really believed Natural Expressions was the right group for us – and that proved true.

Planning was very easy. Photos and video are extremely important and wind up being a big part of the wedding day. Going into our wedding we felt so organized on this front because the team really put in the effort to make sure it would go off without a hitch. Frank and the team communicated so well with us and our planner and had clearly laid out all the shots we wanted to capture (and not capture).

We did an engagement shoot with Frank, which was great and a nice interaction to have pre wedding. The photos were amazing.

Wedding day could not have been better. The team was so easy to work with. We did a lot of photos but we never felt rushed or pressured. The team is so friendly and nice to be around. What could have been stressful was stress free. The team kept us on time and captured all the moments we had hoped for.

We can’t say enough about the team and the work product. We could not recommend Natural Expressions NY more.

Couldn't recommend more highly!!!

Frank and his team at Natural Expressions played such a key role in the success of our wedding! We had heard wonderful things about Frank, and upon meeting him for an engagement shoot, knew our expectations were going to be exceeded! He is so warm, kind, professional, organized, and funny, and the photos turned out beautifully! The day of the wedding, Frank was efficient and thoughtful, and brought a sense of levity to the wedding photos that we all needed. Frank is a voice of reason during a potentially stressful process, and we recommend him enthusiastically!!!!

Natural Expressions!

We had Natural Expressions NY as a part of our wedding day, and we could not have made a better decision. From the first call with Frank and Luiza, they helped us create a vision and talk exactly about what we wanted. We actually had the Engagement/Wedding Package, which allowed us to get to know Luiza better before our actual wedding day. Luiza met us in Central Park for our Engagement shoot. On the day of the wedding, we had a last minute change of location that morning, and Luiza and Hermin made that work. They did not miss a beat during the whole wedding, and knew our venue space very well. We are so grateful for the Natural Expressions Team!

You need them!

The Natural Expressions team is hands down the best vendor you’ll ever have for your big day. From the moment we spoke to Frank, we knew he would hit it out of the park, along with Luiza! Frank and his team go above and beyond to beautifully document every step of the way. I also mean that literally - they’ll direct you to places you’ll never think of, you wonder what’s happening and then see the most stunning photos as an end result. For such a hectic day, you need a team that’ll make you feel comfortable and not add an extra layer of stress — Frank and his team were just that. They’re also the funniest people I’ve ever met, so it was great to share many laughs along the way. Frank’s experience is unparalleled and I don’t think we could imagine our special day without him. You need someone you can wholeheartedly trust with documenting this day and we had that with Frank and his team. They’re also a one stop shop! Get video and a social media kiosk! Our guests loved it. We are so thankful to have them for our special day. BOOK THEM!!

Perfectly Captured our Dream Wedding

We started conversations with Frank almost one and a half years out from our wedding (COVID-related) and from the very start we felt a connection and comfort with Frank that could not be matched by any of the other photographers we met with. It is really hard to put into words how immaculate Natural Expressions was from the very first conversation all the way through helping us select photos for our wedding album.
This is a scary decision to select someone to capture your memories FOREVER. The best decision we made was selecting Natural Expressions and having Frank with us on our special day. He perfectly captured every intimate, fun, and unique moment of our wedding. Frank and his team were the epitome of professional and worked so seamlessly with all the important members of our families and bridal party. Our photos and video captured everything so perfectly and we truly feel so lucky to have gone on this journey with Natural Expressions. I would recommend this team to anyone looking for exceptional photos/videos that capture all of your most noteworthy moments.

We loved working with Natural Expressions!

Frank, at Natural Expressions was amazing to work with. From our first meeting, to the wedding, to the making of the album- they were a pleasure to work with. Frank was a great presence to have by our side during the day of the wedding. He was organized and kept everyone calm and comfortable throughout the day. He helped everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera. When it came to making the album, he added so many beautiful final touches that made it so beautiful. I love looking at the album to relive such a special day in our lives. I would recommend Natural Expressions to anyone in need of a photographer!!

The best!

The Natural Expressions NY team is THE BEST of the best! From our very first phone call with Frank and Luiza, we could feel the warmth, care, and pride, that they put into their work. They understood our vision and we knew from the start that they were going to be the most perfect fit. Our wedding day is still a few months away, but we worked with Luiza for our engagement pictures and the whole experience was seamless. Luiza made us feel extremely comfortable, the entire shoot was lively and fun, and the pictures came out so beautifully. Our family members were brought to tears when they saw the pictures for the first time too! Luiza also made our save the dates for us and the quality cannot be beat. We had a hard time choosing what to use as all of the pictures came out better than we could have ever imagined or hoped for. Our guests-to-be cannot speak highly enough of how much they love them! We cannot wait to continue to work with this team on our big day! They are so easy to work with and the quality is absolutely excellent. They are a dream team!

NYC Wedding - Amazing Photographer

My husband and I were connected with Frank in 2020. Through a virtual meeting, we instantly vibed with him because he is extremely charismatic and kind. We worked with Frank and his exceptionally talented team for our engagement photos, bridal shower photos, wedding photos and wedding videography. The Natural Expressions team's work is breathtaking and they truly brought our vision to life - honestly better than what we imagined!

In general, Frank and the team are just fun to work with! They make everyone feel comfortable while taking photos and always lightened the mood. Working with them is a guaranteed fun but professional experience.

I'd also like to note that the Natural Expressions team always went above and beyond for us... they even created elegant holiday cards using our engagement photos which was such a treat!

We HIGHLY recommend the Natural Expressions team and cannot wait to work with them again in the future!

Best photographers

We postponed our wedding three times due to Covid, and Frank and his team supported us every step of the way. They were flexible, communicative, took the time to get to know us, and made us feel so comfortable. Hermin captured our day perfectly. 10/10 recommend Natural Expressions.

The Best Choice Ever

We first met with Frank from Natural Expressions back in the summer of 2019 and were immediately connected to his enthusiasm and kind personality. We knew we were in good hands with him and the team. After postponing our big wedding due to Covid, we planned a small minimony on our original date and Natural Expressions was a great addition to our day! They even set up a video conference for our family and friends. Frank and Telmo were extremely accommodating and were there for any and all questions since day 1. Finally we got to have our big day on October 23 AND IT WAS A DREAM! Telmo and his team showed up promptly on time, kept to our tight schedule and were extremely attentive to all our details and LARGE bridal party. We took A LOT of pictures but it never seemed like too much and he always made it fun! They knew exactly where the pictures would look best and how to set everyone up.
They were with us the whole night until 1 am taking pictures and videos on the dance floor with happiness and passion! It was just he best day ever in big thanks to Natural Expressions! One of the best decisions we have ever made!

Exceptional Service

From the moment we started working with Frank, we knew we were in good hands. What we didn't expect was the exceptional service we would receive throughout the wedding planning process. Like many others in 2020, our wedding plans changed due to the pandemic. When we decided to go forward with an intimate ceremony, Frank and his team were enthusiastically with us every step of the way. He pulled in an additional photographer to help us capture more beautiful shots throughout the day, and Luiza has been a dream to work with in preparing our wedding album. At the end of this experience, Frank and his team felt like a part of our family on our wedding day. We are SO grateful that they stuck with us during the uncertainty of planning. Now, we have amazing wedding photos to share the story of our pandemic wedding.

Outdoor Wedding

After our wedding was postponed due to Covid-19, Frank and his team were extremely helpful in helping us plan an intimate outdoor wedding ceremony. Not only was he easy to work with on postponing, Frank captured every moment of our wedding day perfectly and was extremely creative on such short notice. Frank's attention to detail really makes him one of the best in the industry. We will be using Frank again for our larger reception down the road and would highly recommend Natural Expressions for any classy wedding or affair.

Saved our covid wedding

Our March 15, 2020wedding was essentially canceled the day before at the start of covid lockdowns. Frank and his team made us feel like the day was special. They saved the day. It's the only part of our dream wedding we got to actually have. They we're flexible and accommodating and helped us navigate our wedding day amid the chaos and the unknown. I can guarantee they will make your backyard wedding look beautiful, and create and album and prints that are as wonderful as the original 'plan'. We'd recommend Frank and his team to anyone. Here is a link to an article written about our wedding featuring the photographs from our ad hock, 24 hour notice covid wedding https://jewishstandard.timesofisrael.com/the-newly-little-wedding-that-almost-wasnt/

Very hands on and wonderful experience

When you are looking for photographers, Frank and Pedro know there stuff. Natural expression came highly recommended. We were on a time constraint for engagement photos and they made it all work and fast!
For our wedding especially during the pandemic, they walked us through everything in making it a very special day given the limited number of people we were allowed at the venues.
They are very hands on even with an emotional bride having to make major changes daily with the pandemic to make it all work. From 250 black tie venue in nyc to 14 people for a family wedding at a country setting-they made it work. The photos by far made my husband and I feel they really made the wedding!! Can’t thank them enough for all there hard work.

7 years later...

My husband and I got married in 2013, moved twice, had kids, and completely forgot to ever pick up our wedding album....Frank and his people tracked us down almost 7 years later to make sure we got it! Amazing dedication and the album turned out FANTASTIC. Frank is an amazing photographer and putting together the album was an incredibly smooth process even with 700 miles between us. 100% would recommend!

Absolutely stunning photography!

Natural Expressions NY did an AMAZING job - we had the best experience working with Frank and Telmo for photography, and Alex for videography!! My now husband and I knew we wanted to work with Natural Expressions NY for our wedding because they captured my sister and brother in law’s wedding in 2015 so beautifully!!

We worked with Frank leading up to the wedding, including creating our schedule for the day of. And trust me, I wasn’t easy - I had three separate first looks (with my dad, my bridesmaids and then of course my groom!). Frank and Telmo were our day of photographers and made sure everything ran smoothly and that we stayed on schedule! Frank and Telmo were also extremely fun to work with on our wedding day, and we felt so comfortable with them! The shots were so fun and creative, yet classic!

The whole team is extremely responsive before and after the wedding, and very easy to work with as well.

The photos are absolutely stunning and we are so happy with the finished product! I was so elated to receive our beautiful, extremely high quality wedding photos and video - definitely shed many happy tears reliving our day! We love Natural Expressions NY!!

Natural Expressions was a joy to work with.
Not only is the owner (Frank) wonderful and always looking out for our best interests, but our photographer and videographer team were top notch. We loved Pedro , Jerry, Luiza and Arthur. They were incredible and we can’t thank them enough. The were organized, attentive and ran on time. The entire day went smoothly and they made everyone feel calm and comfortable. They also captured beautiful and amazing footage that we will have forever. We truly had the A team and could not have been happier.

We LOVED Natural Expressions! Our photographer was Telmo, but we had been meeting with Frank leading up to the event. He told us he would try and come to the wedding prior to the ceremony to take pictures too. We, of course, just thought he was being polite, so it was to my surprise (and delight) that Frank came and took pictures, and stayed through the ceremony. It is truly that personal connection that we loved and appreciated from both Frank and Telmo. They were incredibly easy to work with, and really took their jobs seriously. They are fully aware of the fact that they are the ones creating your long-lasting wedding memories and they 100% succeeded. I cannot say enough about them both. They also made us, and our guests, feel comfortable and had a great time shooting the wedding. We have not received our photos yet but we know they will be amazing!! We would 100% recommend Frank and Telmo for any event.

THANK YOU, Frank, Telmo and your entire team for doing the most incredible job at our wedding. I'm thrilled that we chose to work together with you! Firstly, the engagement photos are stunning. You were so kind to work with our schedule and meet us in such a short period of time.
Everything related to photos and video the day of the wedding was managed in such a professional, seamless way. As a small business owner myself, I know that every detail has to be perfect and thought through well in advance. You absolutely had every single detail covered, and it allowed us to relax and enjoy the day that much more!
Your extremely warm, engaging and upbeat way of being added so much to our special day. If I had to do it all over again, I would not hesitate for one second to hire you all over again!
We can't wait to see the photos and relive our wedding via the video. I will absolutely be recommending you to others!!

The engagement video is outstanding. You really captured Rebecca and Lloyd’s feelings for each other.

On a personal note, I am so impressed with your warmth and genuineness, Frank. You radiate a warmth that is very special and very calming. You seem like a truly nice, kind person.

I will recommend you to everyone. It was a pleasure meeting you and working together.

Sincerely,
Ingrid - Mother of the Bride

COULD NOT HAVE ASKED FOR A BETTER EXPERIENCE. Frank- thank you SO much for everything. From our first meeting to wedding day, Frank was easy to work with and responsive and kept us comfortable (and laughing!) Both him and telmo kept everything moving without making us feel pressured or rush. I was so nervous about being awkward and from the very first picture of our engagement shoot, Frank made me feel comfortable. We chose Natural Expressions after he did a friends wedding, they captured all of the shots and best moments in the most natural state, nothing looked posed or forced and we loved that. We can't wait to see our pictures!

Natural Expressions was a recommendation from our venue's wedding coordinator. They were great from start to finish. Always responsive and accommodating. Frank shot our engagement shoot and most of our photos day of along with Jerry, who was hilarious and fun to work with. I'm not someone who likes being the center of attention and I don't like photo shoots...Frank always made my husband and I feel comfortable and he was a pleasure to work with. I would recommend their team to anyone.

We used Natural Expressions for our recent wedding and could not have been happier with our choice. Frank shot our engagement photos, and Frank, Telmo and crew shot the wedding itself. We haven't seen the wedding photos yet, but the engagement photos were all beautiful. Frank is such a talented artist and professional. On the wedding day, he kept us calm and laughing. He effortlessly navigated our complicated, and changing, requests for family/friend photo combinations, and managed to keep us on schedule leading up to the ceremony. My husband and I had been really concerned about the photography and videography preventing us from staying in the moment. Frank was extremely sensitive to this concern; he struck the perfect balance between capturing all of the important moments without taking us out of the real-time experience. We loved working with him, from the engagement shoot through the main event, and look forward to collaborating on the final album over the next few months. We highly recommend Natural Expressions to anyone considering them for an event!

I can't say enough good things about Frank and his team. I absolutely loved our photographer Pedro!!! My husband really does not enjoy taking pictures but Pedro was able to make the experience fun and relaxing for him. And of course the pictures were just absolutely phenomenal!!!! I think I would have had a mini breakdown that day if it weren't for Pedro lol. Our videography was also wonderful and the video came out beautiful! It all and all was an absolutely magical day thanks to Natural Expressions. They were my favorite of all my vendors. My husband and I along with our family can not thank them enough for capturing our wedding day so beautifully.

Frank and his team are fantastic. They made the whole day fun and easy. I received the pictures the other day and they are so amazing I cannot stop looking at them! We are so excited to see the video. Natural Expressions are a great choice for any event and I am glad you were a part of my wedding.

Of all the fantastic vendors that helped make my wedding the best day ever I truly believe that Pedro stood out the most for the fantastic work he did! My now husband and I first chose to work with NYNE because of the work we had seen them do with beach weddings, as lighting is very important here and not always done the right way. Frank conveniently met us at our home and was very helpful to set up a package that worked for our budget. We loved that we got to have a "test run" with Pedro during our free engagement shoot and were so happy with how comfortable we were working with him. All of our photos came out spectacular! The day of our wedding Pedro (and his assistant Michael) showed up to my parent's home all smiles and stayed that way the entire day. One of the things I loved most about working with Pedro was how on top of remembering specific photos that I wanted taken without being pushy in any way or taking us away from enjoying our party. We love the way the photos came out and are so happy that we have such great moments captured to always remember our special day!

We retained Natural Expressions to take our wedding pictures and they did a phenomenal job. The pictures look amazing. Frank is a pleasure to work with - he worked with us to accommodate our budget and other needs. Telmo and team did an excellent job making sure we got pictures with everyone at our wedding. I would recommend them without reservation.

Natural Expressions exceeded my expectations for my wedding photography. Frank and his office staff have been wonderful and responsive from the beginning and a pleasure to work with. Pedro took the most beautiful photos for our engagement and wedding and we could not be happier.

I selected Natural Expressions because I didn't want a lot of posed portraits and I wanted them to capture moments and they did exactly that. I could not be happier. I hope to have an occasion in the future to hire them again.

I wasn't really sure how to go about choosing a photographer for my wedding, but after meeting Frank I instantly knew I wanted someone I could work easily with and be around all day (literally all day). The staff at natural expressions made the planning aspect go very smoothly. My husband had one request, he wanted to be at cocktail hour. The day of the wedding we were able to take plenty of photos with each other, the bridal party and our families and still get to the start of cocktail hour. Frank and Telmo made the whole photo taking process a ton of fun, everyone loved them! They were also great at knowing the spots that would look good in photos, a great balance of posing and candid pictures as well. We just received on pictures and I absolutely love them! I highly recommend Natural Expressions!

Where do we begin?!?! Frank and his team at Natural Expressions are simply the best! We first met Frank during our engagement shoot in NYC and he was a pleasure to work with. His photos speak for themselves, but his personality, in addition to his creativity, really makes shooting with him an enjoyable experience. He made us feel comfortable right from the start, and he truly has a charm and humor about him that makes everyone he works with fall in love with him. Even our family and friends at the wedding echoed this sentiment and commented on his personality and how playful and fun he is! Prior to our wedding, Frank took the time to create a schedule and timeline for the wedding photos, and he was willing to accommodate any and all photography requests. As expected, we were disappointed when the weather did not cooperate and our picture-perfect sunny day turned to an overcast day; however, Frank found a way to utilize the weather to our photographic advantage and convinced (really forced) us to go outside where he was able to capture a breathtaking, once-in-a-lifetime, magazine-worthy shot of us in a backdrop of intense fog…it looks like we are floating in the clouds!

We would be remiss if we did not single out Pedro who not only followed the groom and groomsmen around for all photos on the wedding day, capturing tons of fantastic candid moments, but he also distracted and entertained our 14-month-old niece during time-sensitive photos!

We cannot wait to put together our photo album and you really cannot do better than Frank and his Natural Expressions photography team (especially if you’re getting married at Temple Emanu-El of Closter!)!

Natural Expressions-- we can't thank you enough!! Frank you are a true professional, but also the nicest guy ever! You, Pedro an Noah work fantastic together. We felt like you were part of our family at Michelle & Eric's recent wedding on August 16, 2014. You captured so many beautiful moments during the entire day! You are so creative and very funny. After seeing how fantastic the engagement photos came out, we can only imagine how incredibly beautiful the wedding pics will be! You guys are a class act. We are sincerely grateful.

I LOVED THESE GUYS! Frank and his team are amazing, flexible and accommodating. My husband and I got remarried in NY with family and friends since we only had a civil wedding two years prior in Switzerland. Frank was so helpful when I was in the process of looking at photographers, he made time to skype and even took into consideration the time differences. He was so friendly and relaxed from minute one that I knew I wanted him to be our photographer. His work is AMAZING! We sent him a 28 page document with photos we liked and things we wanted to replicate, and he worked with us to provide the perfect day captured on film. My husband and I wanted lots of couples photos since at our first wedding we had a family friend do our photos, but he was more concerned about the food than taking pictures. Frank worked non-stop the whole night and is such a professional. He's creative and always seizes opportunities to make unique photos. His whole team is friendly, funny and extremely helpful for every question or idea I had while planning from abroad and especially on the big day. I plan on using him for all our future events and highly recommend him.

I was referred to them by The Lighthouse. I loved the engagement shoot that Jerry did for my now-husband and I. He takes good close-ups and like to turn out photos that look like they are magazine covers. For the value of the money, they provide lots of free things, like the engagement shoot, an internet link to send to friends, blown-up pics, etc. I have to wait for a few months to get my pics developed, as I just had my wedding, so can't wait for the final product!

When we look at our wedding photos we can't help but feel all the joy and happiness all over again. From the minute we met Jerry we new instantly and trusted fully that he would capture all the magic of the day. Jerry kept us relaxed and laughing from the engagement shoot right up to the last minute of our reception. Our friends and family even mentioned how fun Jerry was and how fabulous and efficient the pohots were. Like my husband and I our family and guest never felt any intrusion during the day. Our pictures were amazing, formal picutres as well as the candid moments of the day were fantatstic As we showed our proofs to family, friends and coworkers, there was a consensus that made us feel like we selected the best photographer, "we have never seen wedding pictures that captured everyone at their best, and caught moments you never would expect as part of a wedding album." A picture may be worth a thousand words but our wedding pictures need but a single word PHENOMENAL. Thanks Jerry for sharing all your talents with us and giving us a lifetime of memories

I worked with Frank for my photography and videography services and the process was great from beginning to end. Frank really makes you feel comfortable in front of the camera while also trying to take you out of your comfort zone a bit to capture a great shot. We took his lead on how to set-up the timing of our wedding day which we are grateful for because we got a ton of outside pictures for a November wedding. He kept the flow of the day moving along so smoothly that we never felt like we were rushed for time. We can't wait to see the pictures and video!!

Only word to describe Frank and his team is 'awesome'! My father in law never-ever smiles - and Frank made it happen - (not a forced, toothy smile, but a natural, relaxed, 'I'm having fun' sort of smile). That alone I think speaks highly of him.
Our pictures captured the fairy-taily-ness of our day perfectly! And the album is just to die for. Everyone who walks into our door has to go through this album at least once (they are warned, don't worry!). Our dvd - omg don't get me started --- I've watched a gazillion times! The 'Notebook' has nothing on my wedding video!
And lastly, I'm one of those girls who usually hates 3/4 of photos taken of myself. In my 2000+ photo stack (granted, they're not all of me - but I thought this might be a useful number), I loved them all.
Hands down - Frank is the bomb.

We loved Natural Expressions NY Photography so much!!! The owner, Frank, was easily accessible throughout the entire process, answering every phone call and email, in an extremely expeditious manner - every time, no matter how small the question. He certainly made me feel like a valued client. Telmo and Tracey were our wedding day photographers. They were consistent, thorough, insightful, friendly, helpful, encouraging, stress free, easy to work with, happy, pleasant and delightful!! Aside from all of their wonderful personal traits the quality of their work is far superior to any other photographer we considered and the pricing is reasonable for what you are getting! Words cannot express my gratitude to Frank, Telmo, and Tracey! Please do not settle, book Natural Expressions NY Photography and you will not be disappointed!!

I cannot say enough good things about Frank Ammaccapane and the entire Natural Expressions photography team! Our wedding was June 23, 2012 at the Roosevelt Hotel. Frank and his whole Natural Expressions team were a pleasure to work with. My husband and I used Frank for our engagement shoot last Fall, downtown in NYC. He was amazing! He really got a good feel for what we were looking for in a photographer, and he was able to have us open up and actually enjoy picture taking! I always complain that I am not photogenic, but Frank made me look modelesque in every shot. He had a charm about him that made the whole experience light, fun and playful! For the wedding, we worked with Frank, Telmo, Traci, Alex, the whole gang! We used Natural Expressions for both photography and video. The day of our wedding they showed up on time(even early!) and worked well with our other vendors. Frank had sat with us to make a timeline for the photography and to make sure that he was aware of any/all photography requests. He knew we wanted both traditional and artistic/photojournalistic shots--and we got them both- hundreds, even thousands of fabulous pictures! Frank knew our other vendors and everyone had raved about how they love working with him because he is such a genuine, interested and professional artist. He wanted each picture to be a beautiful masterpiece capturing the moment. They shot our first look in the lobby and got stunning pictures! Then we explored the city and went to Grand Central for a photoshoot to remember. We met with Frank and Traci last week to work on our album and they were both extremely easy to work with, enthusiastic and eager to please. We can not wait to see how the album and video turn out--as we get to relive the highlights of our wedding through all their beautiful pictures! I cannot imagine a better wedding photographer and I urge you not to look any further!!!

Frank and His staff are the best. From the first meeting at our home to the current stage of production we are in, its been a pleasure working with Natural Expressions. Telmo and his team did a great job for us, catching all of those special details of our event. From our 3 boys to the beautiful flowers, to the bridesmaids , and the awesome shots of my lovely wife, they did an outstanding job. It was a pleasure to deal with such pleasant and professional people. We will be certain to reccommend them to all of our friends and business partners.

We hired Natural Expressions to photograph our April 2012 wedding, and we could not be happier. Frank and Telmo were a pleasure to have on our big day- they have a great eye for what will make a good shot, and they couldn't be nicer and better at dealing with people of all ages. They made the bride, the groom, and all the guests, from the youngest flower girl all the way to my 98-year-old grandmother feel comfortable- which is key to good photos! They were fantastic about photographing every little detail of our wedding- all the things we had painstakingly prepared, they managed to capture on film. We're so grateful to them. They also put together beautiful combinations of artistic shots with our rings and flowers, among other things. There are so many great photos from our wedding day... It was a great day, and now we have beautiful pictures to commemorate it with. We highly recommend these guys!

We loved Frank and his assistants from Natural Expressions. Their services are pricey, but they are outstanding. We had more amazing pictures than we know what to do with. His team really captured the story of our wedding, in addition to beautiful portraits. He's very professional, and the whole team is a lot of fun, very nice.

I hired Frank and his team from Natural Expressions NY for our wedding. His team was very professional and very approachable. They also arrived early in the morning and on time! Frank directed many of our shots and took control of many situations when time was an issue. Frank has a lot of experience with weddings and it shows. They really had a great sense of enthusiasm and passion for their work that it made me feel special and I had fun! Frank and his team seemed to care about the quality of their own work. They worked well with our family and friends. I had many favorable comments about Frank from our guests. They were very surprised to find Frank embedded in different spaces around the venue and they were also surprised at the number of photos he took. I haven't received our proofs yet so I can't comment yet on the quality - although his team did show me some camera shots the day of and they were great! I'm looking forward to viewing them. I can highly recommend Natural Expressions NY for wedding photography simply based on the care and professionalism with which Frank and his team conducted themselves.

The company was recommended by our coordinator at World yacht.
I couldn't have been happier
Pedro our photographer is the best and utmost professional . Excellent with kids who decide don't want their picture taken and was able to make them laugh. He was even better with the bride who had several meltdowns and got her to calm down.
Everyone at the company was great!
We got our pics fairly quickly and we wet able to view online
Highly recommend, won't be disappointed

Natural Expressions is the photography studio that the CBC uses on their website, which is how we learned of the company. Based on 5th Avenue and 32nd Street, Natural Expressions is owned by Frank, and executed by a team of competent photographers and graphic artists.
Frank, rather than making us trek into Manhattan to meet him every time, came out to LI and agreed to meet us at either our apartment or the CBC. We met at the CBC, where he had a fantastic set-up of albums and photos from him and his crew. Their style is very candid and natural. We didn’t want a lot of over-the-top pictures, although they can accommodate any style, Frank picked up on our vibe immediately and showed us what we were looking for. We were sold.
The prices are a tad on the expensive side, but the quality and service you receive are well worth the price. Included in our package was an engagement photo shoot with 400 proofs, a dvd of the engagement photo shoot, all unmarked proofs of the wedding, a creatively designed album with 60 pictures, 2 parent albums, one 11x17, one 8x10, and two 5x7s.
I also had constant contact with one of the associates, Jessica, via e-mail, and she was very responsive to any question I had. Our photographer was Telmo, who is fun and relaxing, and really brought out the best of my SO and I. During our engagement shoot, my SO didn’t feel very comfortable in front of the camera at first, and Telmo just made him so confident and happy. My SO and I had a lot of fun in our hour-long engagement shoot. It should also be noted that we got to pick our location for the shoot.
The wedding shoot was gorgeous. The location gave Telmo and his assistant Traci a lot to work with. Telmo was working his butt off during the shoot! He was in the sand, climbing on top of things, and during the ceremony, he took pictures from every angle and height imaginable. What’s also great is that we really didn’t know Telmo was everywhere until we saw our friends’ pictures, and in every beautiful picture, you could see Telmo taking the same one!
Our proofs are beautiful – and they haven’t even been color corrected yet! It should also be noted that we received the proofs a month (to the day) from our wedding. We are thrilled with the amazing work of Telmo, Frank, and the Natural Expressions team!

Frank is great! He takes amazing pictures, he is nice, and easy to work with. He came with another photographer and assistant, who all were extremely talented and professional. His work speaks for itself. The only drawback is that he works slowly--and does not adhere 100% to the timeline. But, I would recommend him 100%.

Cookie cutter wedding pictures. If you like to take a lot of standing around/posed pictures that even your mom could think of then you got the right people. I gave 2 stars for professionalism because I'm sure they pay a lot for their office since its located in a fancy building on Park Ave South. They do respond very quickly. But again, no creativity whatsoever and gives you a good package rate that doesnt really include much so when you actually want to get things printed, you'll be charged an arm and a leg. I totally reqret using them.
