    Simply Perfect!

    We simply could not recommend Alessandra more. Not only does her work absolutely shine, but she makes the entire process as easy as possible. Alessandra is an incredible person who was easy to communicate with, fun to work with and an absolute pleasure to have involved in our day. The pictures speak for themselves but we cannot emphasize enough the hard work and flexibility Alessandra displayed while we worked together the year leading up to our wedding. We often leaned on her advice and followed her lead on which pictures to take and we were left with perfect pictures of our wedding. We received our pictures so much quicker than many of our friends have experienced as well!

    Thank you so much, Alessandra. You helped capture our favorite moments, made the process so fun and played such a big part in our perfect day!

    1000/10 for Alessandra! A wedding must-hire!

    Not every photographer is able to capture the true joy and happiness of your wedding day, but Alessandra did. My husband and I have a love filled with laughs and smiles and funny faces, and Alessandra caught all those moments that we can cherish forever. We had a Sunday afternoon wedding in January with cloudy skies, which concerned me for the pictures, but they came out absolutely beautiful. She sent over the photos via link within a month of my wedding and mailed the photos on a flash drive to me as well. I'm obsessed! We're all into the light and airy photos that are more natural than posed and she does this so well. Of course we have our posed photos, but the organic pictures are where our love for each other was captured by Alessandra. Her photos are on my Instagram feed, already in frames on my walls, and even my parents printed the photos! She is a sweetheart to work with and can break down your entire day so no photo op is missed. I'd hire her again in a heart beat. Truly, truly the best decision I made for our wedding.

    Alessandra parks photography made our wedding the best!

    I cannot put into words how much we loved Alessandra Parks and her team (but I will try!) From the engagement shoot through the wedding and afterwards, she was extremely helpful, flexible, supportive, professional and unbelievably talented. We worked with her and her colleagues (Siobhan and Symphony) for our October wedding at Oheka Castle. They visited the venue months before (without me asking) to plan out all of the perfect shots. They communicated with me, shared a comprehensive plan of the shot list, and provided amazing ideas and suggestions to ensure the pictures were gorgeous. I felt entirely taken care of the whole time. At one point during the cocktail hour, I experienced an allergic reaction and one of the photographers saved the day by having a Benadryl on hand! They kept me calm / at ease and even retouched the photos to ensure we all looked perfect :) They also stayed late to get a full family picture we wanted at the end of the night. Alessandra and her team are quite simply the best of the best. The pictures came out STUNNING. We are so grateful for everything they've done for us!!!

    They're the best!

    We had the absolute greatest experience with the Alessandra Parks team. Alessandra went above and beyond helping us plan out our day-of timeline to squeeze in every photo we wished for. Siobhan captured everything we could've hoped for and more in our photos.. every single detail shot, so many great guest reaction shots and best of all pictures of my husband and I that we'll now have forever..gallery wall is already up we love the shots so much!! The team was accommodating and supportive the entire process and kept our entire bridal party engaged and having fun the entire time. They are the best team to trust in on such an important job on your big day!

    Our Wedding 6/12/22

    I don’t even know where to begin to describe how absolutely AMAZING!!!! Alessandra Parks photography is. From the moment I booked them they went above and beyond for us. Any questions I had they were always available to answer. Alessandra helped me with every little detail having to do with our wedding day. There is not enough I could say about them. My wedding photos are just absolutely breathtaking and I can’t wait to have them photograph more milestones for us!! I can’t say I’ll ever use another photographer!

    6.11.22 Wedding

    I cannot begin to explain how amazing Alessandra was on our wedding day and throughout the whole planning process. Her stunning photos speak for themselves, but Alessandra was so much more than an amazing photographer. She is so personable, friendly and CALM. Her energy definitely rubbed off on all of us and made our day run extremely smoothly. She made my husband and I feel so comfortable and like she had been our friend for years. Not to mention she will literally do anything to get the perfect shot! She was right in the middle of the dance floor all night getting bumped around to get the best dancing shots! She spent the entire day checking in on me and her relaxed demeanor calmed me at some stressful points of the day. I really wanted natural, bright, and candid photos and that is exactly what Alessandra gave us. EVERY photo is stunning. If you are looking for someone who is extremely organized, kind, talented, and dedicated to their craft Alessandra is your girl!

    Best decision

    One of the best decisions we made wedding planning so far has been choosing Alessandra Parks Photography to photograph our wedding! Due to Covid-19, our wedding date had to be pushed back to 2022, but we just had our engagement shoot session with Alessandra and the pictures came out amazing! We only saw a handful from the teasers, but from what we have seen so far, the rest are sure to be as breathtaking! My fiance and I are usually awkward and uncomfortable in front of the camera, but she made us feel so at ease and it definitely shows in the photos! I highly recommend her, you won't regret it!

    Amazing wedding experience

    Alessandra and her team were incredible at our wedding! She was so fun and easy to work with and picked some of the best spots at our venue for photos. We just got our full gallery (so quickly too) and the photos are beautiful. Every photos captures how happy we were the entire day. Couldn't recommend Alessandra enough!

    Beautiful, timeless wedding photos

    We had the best experience with Alessandra. She felt like an instant friend from the moment we met her. She is easy to talk to, had great recommendations when we were looking for other vendors and was just a pleasure all around to work with. Her and her team helped to keep our day on schedule, and made sure we got every photo we wanted. It was a cold November day, so moving things along quickly helped with taking photos which her team was able to do. For family photos they had the next group “on deck” ready to jump in the photos. They made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. We are OBSESSED with out wedding photos. We got delivered ~20 teasers the very next day. We just got our album a few days ago and cannot stop looking at the pictures. I could not recommend and her team Alessandra more.

    Amazing, affordable, unreal

    Alessandra is AMAZING. Her attention to detail is unreal. She gives you an unbelievable value for any budget! She is by far my favorite vendor for my wedding! I am having her shoot my wedding, engagement party, engagement photos, and maybe more! Because I just cant get enough of her!

    Simply the best!

    Where do we even begin??? If we could give 1,000,000 stars that wouldn’t even be enough for Alessandra! She is so incredibly talented and an amazing person to work with. Due to Covid, we had to postpone a few times. Alessandra was so patient and understanding and even helped us plan our backyard ceremony! A year and a half after our ceremony and a baby later, Alessandra was by our side for our reception this past Friday 10/15. Her photographs are simply breathtaking. One of my guests stated, “She may be the best photographer I have ever seen” and we couldn’t agree more! Anyone would be lucky to have a photographer and friend like Alessandra by their side for their special day! Alessandra, Thank you for making our day so special and giving us memories we will cherish forever! Simply THE BEST!

    Best Decision EVER

    WOW I want to bring Alessandra everywhere I go. She and her husband Charlie captured our wedding (10-9-21) so perfectly. They set us up in the perfect spots, told us exactly what to do, where to look and hyped us up so much that neither of us nor our family/friends could stop smiling. I’m obsessed with the photos and will continue to use Alessandra for portraits forever!

    Absolutely Amazing!

    I am seriously blown away by Alessandra! She took AMAZING photos of our day - they are full of light and she got a ton of beautiful candids! She’s a true professional - she organized everything to make sure we had all the classic photos we wanted without missing the fun of the wedding! I could not recommend her enough

    Truly the best decision we could have made!

    It pained me so much to have to wait this long to write this review- we just received our full wedding album and I could NOT be happier! Alessandra, her husband and her assistant shot our wedding about 1 month ago at The Piermont in Babylon, NY. There are no words, combination of words, or anything I can come up with to cover how truly amazing Alessandra and her team are. I knew I had found someone amazing after I got our engagement photos back- they were truly breathtaking. She made my husband and I feel so special, and she took all the nervousness, anxiety and awkwardness out of the entire photo taking process. Then comes our wedding day- and again, Alessandra was able to surpass all expectations. Looking back at it, our wedding day truly was the best day of our lives, even though many points were a blur. I won’t forget Alessandra though- her style, true passion and amazing eye for detail and natural posing, light and environment is next to none. I highly, HIGHLY recommend Alessandra Parks Photography to any bride and groom who wants to have the most amazing day of their lives, perfectly documented and have these memories perfectly captured in every single way. Thank you Alessandra & Charlie! You guys are the dream team!!

    Simply the best...

    There is one thing I wanted to do the day after my wedding, and that was, write a review for Alessandra Parks Photography. We booked Alessandra without even meeting during the height of Covid because I trusted my gut. Our engagement session in July 2020 was a dream come true at Prosser Pines. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND this location if you want something different from the usual ocean looks on Long Island. We received our teaser photos THAT SAME NIGHT and the full gallery within a week.
    My actual wedding day was a dream come true and we give much of that credit to Alessandra (and Charlie!). They kept the day moving along, capturing the moments we wanted while keeping our bridal party laughing and smiling…this included the 8 children they somehow managed to get into photos. As requested, my husband and I did not miss a moment of our party; we were on time for cocktail hour and were only taken outside for five minutes during dinner to capture some golden hour shots. If I actually wrote everything I wanted to about her, this would be too long. So, if you want a photographer who feels like a part of your family and you can trust with the most important day of your life, choose Alessandra. I miss her already! Oh, and I woke up to teaser photos the morning after my wedding!!! Who else works that fast???

    Simply the BEST!

    Wow! I truly don’t think I could have picked a better photographer for my wedding! Alessandra is one of a kind! She has such talent and skill behind the camera, it’s unmatchable! Her classic and timeless style is beautifully captured in all her photos! My husband and I can be very awkward in front of a camera, but Alessandra made us feel so comfortable and relaxed and it translates in all our pictures! She’s a very sweet and good natured person and all family and friends loved her and her partner/husband Charlie, who also captured beautiful pictures for us. What was even more of a surprise is she had a teaser of 20 or more pictures ready for us the very next day after the wedding!! So if you have the pleasure to work with this husband and wife duo you will not regret it!!! Book with Alessandra!!!

    The perfect wedding photographer

    Alessandra was incredible and guided us through every pose and position to ensure we got some truly magnificent photos. She was cool and collected, and handled everyone with all the craziness that inherently happens on the big day with ease and grace. I am beyond thrilled with my photos and couldn't be happier with my choice!

    Amazing photographer - couldn't ask for better!

    Can’t say enough good things about Alessandra! We did both our engagement and wedding with her, and not only did the pictures turn out amazing, but we also had so much fun along the way! Throughout the entire planning process, she was always so warm, accommodating, and friendly, which made us feel comfortable from the start. Alessandra and Charlie had us laughing and smiling whenever they took pictures, quickly getting us get past any initial awkwardness from posing. We did a small outdoor wedding in the Hudson Valley, and they did such a nice job capturing the scenery and views in all of the photos. We received a lot of compliments from our guests afterwards on how fun Alessandra and Charlie were, and how beautiful all of our photos turned out.

    While one short review won’t fully capture the experience we had working with Alessandra, we wouldn’t hesitate recommending her and have already done so to our friends who are planning weddings!

    The best photographer!

    There are not enough stars to give Alessandra! She is so amazingly talented and we were so lucky to find her! After researching photographers, a friend told me to check out Alessandra's social media page. I instantly fell in love with her photos and after meeting with her, instantly fell in love with her! My husband, who can be rather shy, immediately connected with her as well as she took us for coffee during our first meeting. As we began planning, Alessandra was there every step of the way. When we had to postpone our wedding due to Covid, she guided us through the entire rescheduling process. We could not have been happier with our engagement shoot and ceremony pictures! Words really cannot describe how talented Alessandra is! The compliments we received about our pictures are endless! Through this process, we found an incredible photographer and a new friend! We could not be happier! Thank you Alessandra!

    The best decision I made

    Photography was a very important decision for me during my wedding planning process. I am not from Long Island so I spent a lot of time looking through different wedding websites, Instagram and reviews to try to narrow down my search. I found Alessandra on Instagram and instantly gravitated towards her natural, light and airy photos. I reached out and immediately got a response to all of my questions. I only reached out to two other photographers before knowing I wanted Alessandra to be my photographer. She created a proposed personalized timeline almost immediately to recommend her different photo packages and was so personable that it felt like we had been friends for a long time. Fast forward to our wedding and she and her team beyond exceeded our expectations. She listened to the important photos that I wanted captured as well as things I wanted to focus on /not miss. The morning after our wedding we woke up to the most incredible teaser photos, I honestly couldn’t believe it! Alessandra pours her heart and soul into her business and it shows. We received all of our photos back this past week and were so happy with all of them. She and her team did such an incredible job from the hotel/getting ready, detail shots, first look, ceremony, portraits and even the reception. The most important part to me was the calming and stress free process she created. Planning a wedding during COVID was so incredibly difficult and stressful but I never had to worry about my photographer because she was always on top of everything including the day of- she was a saint! I 100% recommend her, you will not regret it!

    Not enough stars!!!

    When I postponed, my original photographer wasn’t available on our new date. My videographer Tom recommended Alessandra and I’m so happy we went with her! She was super sweet from the beginning and made me feel like we’ve been friends forever. She was great with communication leading up to the big day. I cannot even explain how wonderful she is. Her and her husband were on time and got right to work for my detail shots. Alessandra made me feel like the most beautiful bride in the world! 🥰 her and her husband make John and I feel so comfortable, especially for 2 people who are not the most photogenic. They kept us on time and when things had to be adjusted they let me know (which I went with the flow). They had my shot list to make sure we got everything, even tho I kept straying from the list to get additional shots. Her husband was so chill and just kept making jokes about my ocd 😂 I got about 40 teasers within 14 hours from the end of the wedding. OH MY GOD- OBSESSED.. only 3 1/2 weeks and we got ALL of our pictures, almost 3 weeks earlier than my contract. I cannot say enough about Alessandra!!
