    Best engagement photographer in the city!

    Tyler photographed my proposal while we were visiting NYC and my fiancée and I couldn't be happier with the results. Tyler was excellent at communicating throughout the booking and session and even helped me choose the perfect spot to pop the question. On top of that, his photos from the session are wonderful. I wouldn't hesitate to reach out to him again for any other engagement/wedding related photography in the future.

    A rarity in today's day and age

    I would recommend Scratch Studios NY (SSNY) to anybody looking to find the highest level of both, quality AND care. I would like to preface this by saying that I had no part in the research/contracting process of SSNY. My fiancé found out about SSNY via Reddit, and was floored to see how many amazing reviews they had on that platform. He was immediately sold, and after their initial communications, even more-so. My fiancé says that everything with SSNY was flawless! From the first communication, down to the actual planning of our proposal, he could not have had a better experience. Like those Reddit users, we can now testify that you will NOT regret hiring SSNY for absolutely any event. I got engaged on a Saturday at 4:30(ish) PM and had a sneak-peek gallery with edited pictures (ready to download) in my inbox by 6:30 PM the same day. I got my entire album of engagement photos by the following Tuesday (i.e., less than 4 days later). That is UNHEARD of. And it is needless to say that the quality of our photos (in terms of lighting, spacing, angles, and creative vision) are absolutely breath-taking. The lead photographer (Tyler) was professional, kind, and so easy to be around. I couldn't have chosen a better stranger to share such a special and intimate moment with us. He made us feel like we had known him for years! Like he was our friend who just so happened to be taking our engagement pictures... Thank you Tyler and SSNY for your commitment to capturing beautiful, captivating, priceless photographs. And for making the experience so seamless and magical for those on the other side of the camera.

    Incredible Proposal Weekend!

    I hired Tyler and Scratch Studios to capture my proposal. Needless to say, he was nothing short of amazing!

    The weekend threw us for several loops with weather and a last-second location change. Each step of the way, Tyler was incredibly flexible, thoughtful, and communicative. In addition to capturing fantastic photos, Tyler went above and beyond in making the weekend incredibly special for my fiance and me. We are very grateful for Tyler and would recommend him to anyone looking for a photographer to capture a special moment. If we could give him six stars, we would!

    Seamless & Perfect from Start to Finish

    I recently had the pleasure of working with Tyler who beautifully captured the unforgettable moment of my proposal in New York's Central Park. From the outset, the entire process was nothing short of amazing. Tyler was not only incredibly skilled but also made the experience easy and enjoyable. His communication throughout the planning and execution was outstanding, ensuring that every detail was considered. The resulting photos surpassed all expectations, perfectly encapsulating the magic of the moment. I am immensely grateful for his talent and professionalism, and I highly recommend Tyler to anyone seeking a photographer for a special occasion.

    Working with Tyler was amazing!

    I'm so happy that I found Scratch Studios and Tyler to help capture my proposal! I first contacted Tyler a couple months before I was going to propose, and I was so impressed with his prompt responses. I'm not from the NYC area, but that's where I was planning to propose. Tyler was so helpful in suggesting possible proposal locations. On the day of the proposal, he was so helpful with coordinating everything to make sure I would be able to locate where he was. Tyler was so easy to work with while taking photos and he made us feel super comfortable and confident the whole time. We were so happy with how the photos of the proposal came out, and also the portraits we took after the proposal. He created a preview album for us that same day! Only 3 days later, we got the full album and were blown away with the photos! Highly recommend Scratch Studios to anyone looking for a photographer!

    Found on Reddit: Best decision I could have made

    I reached out to Tyler from Scratch Studios after searching for a NY proposal photographer and finding some exceptional reviews on a Reddit thread. Tyler couldn't have made our proposal more special! He made the experience so easy to plan (especially with me being from Minnesota and the proposal happening in NYC), and the proposal shots + the post-proposal images he took afterwards looked phenomenal. Couldn't recommend Scratch Studios enough!

    A one click wonder!

    We were very lucky to have had Tyler photograph our wedding. He's a great photographer and truly captured the joy of the day. Tyler is very pleasant to work with and it was like having a friend take photos of our wedding. He also delivered the photos ahead of the expected schedule. Highly recommended.

    Amazing experience!

    The entire experience with Tyler was wonderful! He was extremely responsive and accommodating and was open to all ideas. He made us feel really comfortable throughout the photo shoot. We got not only our previews on the same day but the final edits as well! And he made sure we knew that at any point we can ask him to re-edit any photos. Thanks Tyler for capturing our special day!

    Talented, responsive, accomodating photographer for our proposal!

    We're so glad we picked Tyler to capture our proposal. He was super responsive from the start, and his experience was very helpful for giving tips to make sure the proposal went off without any issues. He went above and beyond, showing up early to scope out the area for photo spots, and the photos from our post-proposal mini session were incredible - we'd definitely work with him again!

    Look no further, your dream wedding photographer is here!

    Truly can't picture our wedding day without Tyler. He was a JOY to work with, super creative, and had a really good understanding of what would make the best shot, but also wasn't pushy/annoying in pursuit of getting it.

    You spend so much of your wedding day with your photographer, you want to like them. We genuinely loved being around him because he was able to 'read the room' in any given scenario. Our photos turned our better than we could imagine. Would be happy to answer any questions about our experience if you're on the fence. Scratch studios is the best!

He was so prepared and got through our extensive photo list SO quickly. He's also so creative and gets the best shots. All of his photos are amazing. Highly highly recommend!!

    High-Quality Photos Delivered Quickly

    Scratch Studios / Tyler was an excellent choice! He was very professional, arriving early to help set up a surprise engagement photo shoot. He was extremely kind and helpful and allowed us to have a moment to savor the proposal. Tyler agreed to take photos in in multiple locations near our apartment and delivered the sneak peak photos within hours of the shoot. He delivered dozens of high-quality photos and quickly provided black and white / color versions of our requested images. I would highly recommend Scratch Studios / Tyler for your photography needs.

    From a wedding photographer to a lifelong memory maker!

    We discovered Tyler on Instagram three years ago. He captured our love story impeccably: from engagement shoots in our neighborhood to our wedding portraits in Brooklyn, to family photo sessions two years later…he has become my most trusted creative partner and there is no one else I’d ever trust behind a lens. The only thing better than his stunning galleries is his kind heart and wonderful patience. Professional, personable, and perfect. Always!

    100/10 Recommend!

    Tyler was the most professional, easygoing, and kind photographer we could have imagined. He was very knowledgable about the best photo opportunities, and worked with the Rockafeller Center security to get some exclusive access for photos. Tyler also shared such excitement with us, which was refreshing and really added to the moment. Cannot recommend working with Tyler enough!!

    Simply the best!

    Hiring Tyler as our wedding photographer was one of the best decisions we could have made in wedding planning. He is an amazing photographer and he took the most gorgeous photos of our wedding day that we will cherish forever. On top of that he is the such a nice guy and really makes you feel comfortable in front of the camera. He was also a really great help to us when we were putting together the timeline for our wedding day. We had no idea where to start and he spent a hour on the phone with us mapping out the day. We got married at the River cafe and he knew all the best spots in the Dumbo area to go for pictures before the ceremony, where to do the first look, etc.
    We also did an engagement shoot with Tyler before the wedding and are obsessed with how those photos turned out as well.
    We truly could not recommend Tyler more - he is simply the best!

    Amazing Experience

    My husband and I did a wedding portrait session with Tyler in Central Park and Top of the Rock. It was a long, gruelling 3 hour session but Tyler was an absolute pleasure throughout. He gave great directions on poses, was incredibly flexible with all the locations and finally came out with a amazing gallery of edited photos within a week of the shoot. We are especially happy with the variety and sheer quantity of edited shots we got back. Tyler is also amazing at capturing cute, candid shots - we couldn't be happier that we chose him to capture our very special moment!

    Beautiful, Vibrant, and Authentic Wedding Photos with Tyler of Scratch Studios

    It's easy to get overwhelmed by the number of photographers in NYC, but you cannot go wrong with Tyler of Scratch Studios!

    We were drawn to Tyler's vibrant photos and approach to capture authentic and candid moments. Within a minute of our initial call, Tyler already had us smiling and laughing; we knew he could bring out the best in us in front of a camera. On the call, Tyler answered all of our questions thoroughly and addressed our concerns. It was an easy decision to book Tyler for our wedding.

    Tyler was so accommodating with our engagement shoot. He ensured that we could get photos with our dog near our home and made the time so that we were able to relocate and shoot all over Dumbo. We had a lot of fun working with Tyler - he had so much positive energy, hyped us up, and gave great direction while letting us be ourselves.

    On our wedding day, Tyler was incredibly professional, efficient, and friendly. The energy he brought was exactly like our engagement shoot, even though the day was much longer. Tyler kept us in great spirits, ensured that we got all of the photos on our shot list, and skillfully directed our family photos of 15-20 individuals.

    Tyler was quick to edit and send us previews/return our photos to us. We know that this is a point of pride for Tyler and he truly delivers!

    We absolutely love our photos - from the candids to the detail shots to our couples portraits. We cannot wait to get the rest of our wedding photos back; the preview we got already evokes the love, joy, and support we felt on our wedding day. Thank you, Tyler, for beautifully capturing memories that we'll treasure for a lifetime!

    Stunning Proposal Photos

    Tyler was phenomenal to work with and we love our photos! Before the proposal, I spoke with him over the phone and told him my vision. He was able to give me advice and ideas to make sure we had less tourists in the background, some privacy, and a stunning view. He was so efficient during the post proposal photoshoot, had great pose ideas for us, got us a preview gallery in a couple hours, and made us feel really comfortable during the shoot. We absolutely love the quality and composition of our photos of this special moment. We will definitely look back at them forever!

    Tyler was super responsive from the minute I contacted his company. I decided on a surprise Central Park proposal. We had a quick phone-call to go over the details and when the day came he was there ahead of schedule waiting for me to pop the question. Affordable but did not compromise quality as the photos came out wonderful. I would recommend his services to anyone in search of a professional photographer.

    Best Photographer Ever

    I attended a wedding that Tyler shot and instantly knew that was our photographer whenever we got married. So you better believe I made sure he was available before I secured my venue! And I am SO SO glad we had him there to capture our special day. Not only are our photos stunning, like actually unbelievably perfect, but Tyler’s demeanor and vibe on our day was perfect as well. He gets the job done but in a way that keeps it fun and stress free. And you better believe when it comes to the dance floor, he is everywhere! Our guests still keep talking about how amazing our photographer was, and we couldn’t agree more. He was super helpful leading up to the day as well, which made it all run smoother as it was happening. I wish we could have another wedding just to have Tyler photograph us again!

    We had the absolute pleasure of partnering with Tyler for our international elopement, and it's safe to say he made our special day even more extraordinary. From the moment we connected with Tyler all the way across the pond in Ireland, his unwavering support and genuine excitement for our celebration were palpable.

    Navigating through my ambitious vision for our photo locations, Tyler seamlessly guided us with his expertise, ensuring we felt neither rushed nor overwhelmed. Meeting him in person solidified our belief that we had found the perfect photographer for us. Tyler wasn't just behind the lens; he became our hype man, our reassuring presence (yes, even doubling as our security guard!), and, of course, our invaluable witness to our ceremony.

    His talent truly shone through as he captured the essence of who we are as a couple, effortlessly guiding us through poses that felt natural and authentic. Tyler's infectious enthusiasm throughout the session had us eagerly anticipating the magic he was creating with each click of his camera.

    To our delight, Tyler's turnaround time exceeded all expectations, with a delightful sneak peek of our photos delivered within a mere 24 hours.
