    Beautiful photos, SO MUCH FUN

    We hired Pat and Claire for our September wedding, and they were incredible. Beautiful photos, hilarious couple. They were the kind of people we felt we could be friends with, which made a long couple photo session feel fun and easy. They effortlessly managed our very large and somewhat unruly families during the family photos, which takes a unique blend of patience and a directness. And they took drone shots we weren't even expecting!! We couldn't recommend them enough!!!

    The best wedding photography team!!!

    Pat and Claire are truly exceptional and we are so happy that they captured our wedding day. After seeing their portfolio online, we jumped at the opportunity to work with them. From their photographs, it was clear that they possess a unique ability to capture the nuance and beauty of some of life's most intimate moments. They are also incredibly organized and professional. During the planning process, we found out our venue was undergoing major construction which had the potential to completely alter where we would take photos. Pat was calm and confident that this would not derail our day and that made me feel so comfortable on the day of. Both Pat and Claire are also such funny and kind people and we couldn't be happier that we spent several hours of our wedding day with them. After the wedding day, they sent us all of our wedding photos within such a short time frame, we were completely speechless. Every photo so perfectly captured the joy of the day for ourselves and our loved ones. If we could do it again, we would rebook with them a hundred times over!!!

    Amazing to work with, beautiful photos for a lifetime!

    We worked with Pat for our engagement shoot and Pat and Claire on our wedding day. We love both sets of photos. They are so easy to work with and are so great at what they do. You must hire them. They give you a very effortless and chill wedding day, which is what we wanted after two years of wedding planning. My husband Ben and I felt like they were family by the end of the night. They blend in so well with your wedding guests and you hardly notice them in the background taking photos. We chose to do a first look and take all photos prior to ceremony. Pat and Claire never pulled us away from our guests to take more photos so we were able to be present and enjoy the whole night. We hope to work with them again or see them again because they are all around awesome people to be around. I wish them the absolute best, they deserve all the success they have and more. (**They also don't take an exorbitant amount of time in getting you your photos back which I know a lot of photographers do, and they are just as busy if not busier than others that take so long and don't lack on the quality either).

    The perfect team.

    What can we say about Pat and Claire that hasn't already been said? They are amazing people and incredible photographers. As soon as they walked in the room at The Wythe Hotel where I was getting ready I felt completely at ease, as if two old friends had entered. Nothing that day felt forced, awkward, or uncomfortable, which you could imagine might be the case when you're walking around Brooklyn in a wedding dress. It just felt easy. And throughout the event Pat and Claire were like secret agents, blending in with the crowd and capturing the moments we will be able to celebrate for the rest of our lives. We've seen a few photos so far and each is better than the next. Sounds cheesy but they were really able to capture our love for each other in the shots, and for that we will be forever grateful. We can't wait for the full set. Go and hire them now!

    Best photographer out there!

    Hiring Pat Furey was one of the best decisions we made in planning our wedding, and we could not recommend him highly enough! He is fun to be around, put us and all our wedding party at ease, and captured moment after moment in the most authentic way. I am someone who can be a bit stiff in front of a camera, but you'd never know that looking at the photos he took of us. His wife was also there as another photographer, and with the two of them laughing and smiling the whole day, they set the perfect tone. Do yourself a favor and hire Pat if you're considering! Thank you Pat!

    best wedding decision we ever made!

    I've tried to write this review a few times, but it's almost impossible to put into words just how talented Pat & Claire are. The photos they capture are so timeless, yet edgy, and just stunning. Pat & Claire are both amazing artists and are just top notch humans. They are so kind, professional, and fun to be around. Our wedding was postponed (a couple times) due to the pandemic, and they always were the first to respond with their availability, making the endless date-changing process way less stressful. On our wedding day, we found ourselves in a thunderstorm and both Pat & Claire literally got drenched just so we could get great shots. They made us feel like actual supermodels the entire wedding day, hyping us up and giving us great direction. 10/10 would get married again just to have them capture it!

    Pat and Claire are AMAZING

    We do not have enough wonderful things to say about Pat and Claire!! From our engagement photos to our wedding photos, they were so fun, professional and extremely talented. When we got our photos, we literally could not stop looking at them and everyone who has seen them has complimented their work. They were able to capture every single amazing moment and we are so grateful for that. In addition to their artistic talent, Pat and Claire were incredibly organized, timely with getting us the photos in a busy time, and so fun to work with. We would recommend Pat Furey Photography to anyone who asks.

    Best of the best

    Pat and Claire were a DREAM to work with. Not only do they take the most beautiful photos, but they were so much fun to work with! From beginning to end they were there to capture every detail of our wedding day. If we could do it all over we would chose Pat Furey Photography every time! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

    The best decision you'll make for your wedding!

    Pat & Claire are the absolute best in the biz. They are professionals-- organized, beyond timely (we got our wedding pictures back TWO WEEKS after our big day. Unreal!), as well as super talented. That's an understatement-- ENORMOUSLY talented. Our pictures are absolutely stunning--their style is crisp and iconic, and they have an incredible eye. No one could ever possibly look bad in one of their photos. The best part? They are wonderful, down-to-earth, and hilarious as people too. These are not only the kind of people you want to work with on such a momentous occasion, but they're the kind of people you want to be friends with. Oh and they adore dogs. Need I say more?!

    Photo Dream Team

    My husband and I got married at Perona Farm on September 27th, 2019. I myself being a photographer for over 10 years had high standards and expectations to find the perfect team that would accelerate our vision of the most perfect day of our lives. Pat and Claire were the most amazing photo dream team! Months leading up to the event they were always responsive and they were there to answer quick whenever I had a question. They cared about what we expected our day to be like and made it come to life inside our images. They captured every moment exactly how I pictured it in my head. Not to mention we got our images as soon as returning home from our honeymoon which was bomb! The day ran by so smooth. Pat and Claire made us feel like a million bucks. They knew exactly what to say and were just in love with the moments as we were. I especially just enjoyed their dynamic working together while getting the shots. I trusted them and knew our day was in good hands, I wouldn't trade our wedding day in for anything. it was the most magical beautiful day of our lives and I now can remember this for the rest of my life thanks to Pat and Claire.

    Truly the best

    We looked at over 40 photographers for our wedding... we didn’t realize the importance at the time but knew we had specific style we were looking for. I had a call with a handful of photographers but then got on the phone with Pat and it was a TOTALLY different experience. He was so down to earth and I just knew right away that he got it. Pat wasn’t available for our wedding but his partner Claire was and he assured us that she is brilliant and that we were in good hands. We had our engagement shoot right before the wedding and immediately fell in love with Claire. Then she sent us all our engagement photos (2 days later!) which then confirmed that she was the real deal. As someone who is super critical of all photos of myself, loving every. single. one. is a huge deal. She is talented beyond words. We got married last weekend and Claire was one of the best parts of our day. She is soooo calm, cool and relaxed and has this way of making all your stress and anxiety go away and just allowing yourself to be in the moment. We also never at any point felt like we were taking awkward forced photos, which is really uncommon with wedding photography. Claire is the best decision we made and if you’re looking for a photographer, look no further than Pat and Claire.

    Fantastic Photos!

    I can't even begin to explain how happy we are with our wedding photos. Pat and Claire are not only unbelievable photographers, they were so incredibly amazing to work with! We first met Pat for our engagement photos and knew right away we were in good hands. They captured many beautiful posed photos, but also so many candid photos that really captured the moment. We are so grateful to have these photos forever!

    Absolute Perfection

    Pat & Claire deserve more stars than we can count. The duo are true artists and have a natural knack for capturing beauty and fun. We were hoping to find a photographer that captured incredible candid shots and when we came across Pat’s portfolio, my now husband and I knew we had to get in touch.

    When we first met Pat to discuss our wedding, he was more interested in hearing who we were and what we were looking for vs. telling us what he’d done before and could do for us. He wanted to know our story and after 30-45 minutes of talking about life and work, we felt at home with him and knew that he had our best interests at heart. We’re not at all comfortable in front of a camera and when you look at Pat and Claire’s photos from the day, you wouldn't be able to tell.

    Leading up to our day, he checked in to begin coordinating the photos we wanted, the timing for the day, and to give us an idea of what to expect. Much like our initial call, he put us at ease and we were confident Pat knew exactly what we were after.

    When the day finally came, Pat was there with his amazing wife, Claire, and ushered everything along, always being mindful of our needs and making sure that the day went the way we wanted. They divided their attention to make sure both bride and groom prep was captured and brought us both together for our first look prior to the ceremony and reception. They made us feel incredibly comfortable, like a bunch of friends were just snapping some photos, which is exactly what we wanted. We had a ton of fun talking with them, making it easy to forget why we were all out in the woods together.

    Throughout the ceremony and reception, Pat and Claire were invisible - in the BEST way possible. We know they were there because of the incredible photos they gave us later, but you never would have realized they were working the event unless you were looking for them. They blended in with our family and friends and truly captured the magic of the day. We’ve received so many compliments from our family and friends about our album and we just couldn’t be happier. Not only are they the kindest people but they take their work and art incredibly serious. Their portfolio truly does speak for itself and the work they do. Like I said, I’d give them a billion+ stars. Thank you to Pat and Claire for making our day so perfect and special and something we’ll cherish FOREVER.

    Gorgeous Wedding Photos

    The moment I got engaged, I knew that photography would be the most important vendor for my wedding. It's the piece that you keep forever, and your first family heirloom. My (now) husband and I found Pat and immediately loved his style. Unfortunately, he was booked. We hired his associate to shoot our wedding, but he still edited the photos with his rich, vivid style. We are so pleased with our photos (which came back early), as well as the keepsake album. Thank you, Pat!

    I should just include a link to our photos to show the quality and talent that Pat & Claire have - but that wouldn't give justice to how geniunely awesome it is to work with them! Super chill, the best eye, the nicest people. If you're considering booking them for an event, let me sway your decision: *DO IT.* They are THE. BEST. 10 out of 5 stars.

    Great photos, amazing people

    The photos speak for themselves and are always amazing. What is extra special about Pat is that he is kind and great to work with. We had our initial meeting with him and our wedding was actually photographed by his associate, Alexander, who was equally wonderful. He was relaxed, funny, made us comfortable and took amazing photos.

    Hudson Valley Wedding Perfection

    All discerning couples know this, the process for picking a wedding photographer is a big deal. It’s extremely important to find people who share your style and vision to be sure that style and vision can be captured during your wedding. Liz and I didn’t know how important, and how amazing finding the right partners would be, until we worked with Pat & Claire Furey. We can’t say it much better than the email we sent after they sent us our photos:

    “Pat & Claire,

    You know this, because you were there, but Liz and I didn't cry during our wedding. We thought about this a few times in the weeks since we saw both of you last and came to the conclusion that we were both excited to be in the moments you captured that there wasn't any time for us to slow down and process what was happening.

    Amazingly, wonderfully and beautifully - you both have captured our best memories and we have nothing but thanks and gratitude to share with you. Thank you so much for not just giving us the opportunity to relive the day but capturing everything exactly the way it should've been. There aren't many moments in life when you're so happy that you can cry and we can tell you, now, that both Liz and I cried from start to finish going through the amazing video and the selects.

    Thank you again, we love these. We can't wait to share them and we hope to see you both soon.

    All our best,

    Liz and John”

    Wonderful experience working with Blaise from Pat Furey Photography. Blaise was terrific from the start. He was extremely professional, responsive and high energy. During our engagement shoot, he helped us get comfortable in front of the camera and got some great shots.

    On our wedding day, 8/11/18, we worked with Blaise and Felicia. It poured in the morning and throughout the day, but Blaise and Felicia worked quickly to get pictures outside (which turned out terrific). They were able to capture the very special candid moments throughout the day, ceremony and reception. We could not be happier with our pictures. Also, the turnaround time on our pictures was very quick! Highly recommended.

    Pat is top-notch! Not only is he super talented (as you can see from his work), but he’s super chill and supportive, which sets a great tone when he’s shooting. Plus, he has, like, a decade of experience, so we knew that he’d be able to tackle whatever we encountered on our big day. We felt very comfortable and taken care of. When we got our photos back (more than 1,200 of them, less than 3 weeks after the wedding!), we couldn’t stop poring over them, and we’ve gotten so many compliments on them. We’re so thrilled we had Pat shoot our wedding!

    When we started planning our wedding, my new husband a I agreed that hiring a great photographer was our top priority. We did a ton of research and based off of Pat's portfolio, we decided that hiring him was the best option. We were so pleased with our choice to hire Pat for our special day! He was a professional from beginning to end. He didn’t waste a single minute of shooting and knew exactly how he wanted us to pose for each and every photo. He used a lot of direction, which was great because I’m never quite sure how to pose for pictures. He has a great sense of humor and made us feel very relaxed the whole time, which is important when your wedding day is full of so many nerves and anxiousness. Not only was the day-of experience great, but we got our photos back after only a couple weeks and they were outstanding! The pictures were so magical and helped us to relive our wedding day. We are so happy with our choice to hire Pat, it was one of the best decisions for our wedding and we will be able to cherish the amazing photos throughout our lives.

    We couldn't be happier with our decision to book Pat and Claire for our wedding. It was actually the first decision we made - before we even picked a date or booked a venue - we knew from the get-go that Pat and Claire were the team for us (and we chose our date based on their availability!). In hindsight, I think knowing that we had Pat and Claire as our photographers cut down on a lot of the stress with wedding planning - we were fully confident that no matter what, our photos would be fantastic (and they were). They're extremely professional, attentive, and all-around wonderful to work with - and of course, their work is stunning. We can't recommend Pat and Claire highly enough!

    Pat and Claire's photographs are stunning. Take it from someone who felt almost intimidated by their portfolio: you don't have to have a stunning destination wedding or something straight out of a bridal magazine for this duo to work their magic - they'll find what's special and unique about your day and capture it beautifully. They were a joy to work with both leading up to the wedding and on the day-of, helpful but unobtrusive, and so sweet and friendly. Our friends and family raved about the photographs, and I know we will treasure them for a long time.

    Pat (and his other half Claire) are in one word, Amazing! My venue had a few recommended photographers from their preferred vendor list and I did (A LOT) of research on my own prior to calling anyone and setting up appointments. I really was looking for a photo journalist for my wedding. I’ve been to and been a part of a lot of weddings and I knew that I did not want your typical “wedding photographer”. I didn’t want a lot of posed photos; I wanted someone to document and capture my wedding; the laughs, the tears, and all of the emotions in-between. When I had my first meeting with Pat and saw more of his portfolio and got to know his personality I immediately knew I wanted to work with him. His shots are very candid and very real/raw. He does do some of the posed photos for a wedding, but he can capture a moment perfectly and I couldn’t be happier with my decision to work with him and Claire. He’s very easy going and up for anything, not to mention incredibly responsive. If you’re looking for someone to capture all the great moments of your day; Pat is your guy!

    Wow. Pat & Claire. These guys are amazing. When we got engaged Pat was one of the first vendors we settled on based on a friend's glowing referral. He not only agreed to photograph our wedding but to travel to Connecticut to do so! Considering we have roots in Philadelphia where Pat is from this was a win-win.

    Pat and Claire traveled to NYC for our engagement shoot and absolutely nailed it. We were so happy they were flexible enough to make a day trip and also produce such amazing, unique photos. There were several times Pat would tell us to do something we would never have thought of in our heads but was so amazing in pictures. Both Pat & Claire are so fun, genuine,relaxed, and incredibly responsive to all of our requests.

    Now for the wedding! We got married on 8/16/14 and they spent all afternoon and night taking photographs of everything imaginable. They are so creative with the pictures they take based on the location. They even stayed a little longer than planned because our timing for dances got delayed! We have looked at all the pictures for HOURS and are thrilled with the quality and thoughtfulness of everything.

    Honestly, we could not be happier with Pat and Claire's work. Thanks again for everything guys!
