New York City & Long Island Wedding Photography

Hevesi Journal is a documentary wedding photographer in NYC, shooting weddings across New York — from Queens and Manhattan out to Long Island and the Hudson Valley.

We’re Katie & David — a husband-and-wife team who photograph New York weddings built around real emotion rather than staged moments. We move quietly through the day, watching for the quiet interactions, the laughter on the sidelines, and the small in-between moments that are easy to miss while you’re living them.

We’re based in Atlanta and shoot in New York throughout the year. Travel is structured into the quoted investment, so there are no surprise line items — you get the same two-person team, the same calm presence, and the same hand-finished edit you’d get if we lived down the block.

Our work is documentary at heart and editorial in craft. We’re a film wedding photographer in the literal sense — actual 35mm stock, shot alongside digital on every wedding, developed rather than simulated. Photo and film collections are available, and many New York couples book combined coverage led by the same team.

Our Approach

Documentary at heart.
Editorial in craft.

Our wedding photographs aren’t overly staged or trend-driven. They focus on real emotion, natural light, intentional pacing, and the atmosphere of the day — the things that make a wedding feel like yours and no one else’s.

We want the gallery to feel the way the wedding felt, not like a performance. That means we’re patient. We shoot digital alongside 35mm film, we document relationships rather than poses, and we edit by hand toward warm, timeless tones you’ll still love in twenty years. What’s left is honest, considered, and quietly editorial.

The Experience

From first call to final gallery.

Five quiet steps, built to keep you present on your wedding day and confident in the gallery that follows.

01

Consultation

We start with a relaxed call. We learn who you are, what your day looks like, and how photography fits into it — no scripted questions.

02

Planning

Together we shape a photographer’s timeline with breathing room, so the moments that matter most have space to unfold naturally.

03

The wedding day

We arrive early and move quietly. Close enough to catch the small moments, unobtrusive enough that you forget we’re there.

04

The edit

We edit every image by hand toward warm, timeless tones — never a filter or preset dump — so the gallery feels like the day actually felt.

05

Delivery

Sneak peeks arrive within 24–48 hours. Your full gallery follows in 6–9 weeks, ready to download, print, and share.

Questions, Answered

Frequently asked questions.

Wedding photography in New York varies based on hours of coverage, number of photographers, and deliverables. Hevesi Journal’s collections currently begin at $6,000 and include both digital coverage and 35mm film. Travel to New York venues is structured within the quoted investment rather than billed as a separate line item.
No. Hevesi Journal is based in Atlanta, Georgia, and New York is one of our regular markets — we shoot there throughout the year. Travel is built into every New York proposal, so booking us is priced the same way it would be for a local studio.
We photograph weddings across New York City and the surrounding region, including Queens, Manhattan, Brooklyn, Long Island, and the Hudson Valley. Recent New York weddings include the TWA Hotel at JFK and The Fox Hollow in Woodbury.
Both, on the same day. Digital cameras cover the full timeline for complete, reliable coverage, and actual 35mm film stock runs alongside it and shapes the tone and grain of the final gallery. It is real film, not a digital filter.
Most couples book 9 to 14 months ahead, and New York dates in spring and fall fill first. If your date is closer than that, reach out anyway — availability depends on the specific weekend, and we can often make it work with less lead time.
Yes. Hevesi Journal offers wedding photography, wedding film, and combined photo and film collections led by our husband-and-wife team, so both are covered with one consistent vision.
