We used Laurie for our wedding 5/6/19. She was very professional, on time and made us feel comfortable while taking the pictures. My wife was nervous about the whole process. Laurie, went the extra mile; and gave her some great advise, and made her laughed. That was thoughtful of her to do. The pictures were awesome, editing was perfect not too photoshopped just right. Overall, 10/10 experience, will be using her again to capture more of our life’s milestones.

Laurie is incredible. She was at the venue in advance and prepared. She took incredibly beautiful photos that will help us preserve the day. And she helped us navigate the day with her extensive wedding knowledge. She was also wonderful at helping add some levity at key moments when needed.

Our experience with Laurie Rhodes was spectacular. Our wedding photos are beyond words to explain. She captured every special moment from just posing to everyone dancing. Laurie is very professional and takes her job seriously to provide the best. We were blessed to have her as our photographer. We love every photo she provided.

Dear Yomy,
Thank you so much for the review! From our first meeting at the New Leaf Cafe, I knew your wedding was going to be amazing. I loved working with you and Freddy and your boys. The love was flowing between all of you and your family and friends. I loved being part of it and capturing all those moments.

We were drawn to Laurie after viewing her online gallery and seeing her unique style. When we got our photos, we were not disappointed! She has a talent for producing wonderfully composed candid shots.

Thank you so much Peter for leaving a review of my photography services for your wedding this past July! I really enjoying getting to know you and Camber well before the wedding and hearing about your relationship and especially about your preference for candid photos. I live to capture candids! All the best to you and Camber!

Laurie's photos truly reflect who we are as a couple, and her years of experience are so evident in the quality. Laurie's well-honed eye as an artist is matched by her technical abilities and refined use of them. This, IMHO is one of the most important ingredients to having timeless photos that never look dated; compositions, color corrections, and captured moments that are all spot on and technically top-notch. Laurie is a photographer's photographer, and we were so lucky she squeezed us into her schedule.

Laurie is the photographer you are looking for. Rest assured, you'll be meeting a wonderful person whose kindness and warmth will not only make you and your partner feel comfortable - but all your guests at your wedding day or special event. You might wonder "how will the photos turn out?" Or "will they be special? Will she capture my feelings and all the love we felt on our day?" And guess what ... she will! Laurie's docu-style photography is an art one can't just master by being "good" you have to have that extra sense and appreciation for social connections, interactions and emotions which I know Laurie unquestionably has. Finally, as a gay couple getting married ,we wanted someone who "got us" and understood the relationships we had with various people .. such as our girlfriends or gay best friend or even siblings etc. Laurie got it! I could go on and on but I'll say it again - if you're lucky enough to book Laurie - just smile and know you're in good hands. Even videos won't captu... Read morere what she will!
THANK YOU LAURIE!
PS book for the max # of hours you can afford. You won't want a single moment missed!

Laurie was very professional and loves what she does. She set up an appointment to meet me at the venue 1 week before the wedding to scout indoor and outdoor locations to shoot. She also wanted to meet at the same time as the wedding to get an idea of sunlight and shades both indoors and outdoors to plan her shoot.
She arrived a bit early to get situated and photographed the bride in her room prior to the ceremony. She took guidance well to my wedding outline. She took plenty of pictures and we were very pleased with the outcome.

Wow, its hard to imagine what I could say to properly explain our experience with Laurie- she was SO amazing from start to finish!! Setting up our initial meeting, she got back to us in less than 24 hours of our initial request - and scheduling with her was a breeze. The minute we met her, we knew she was going to be our pick - her photography is gorgeous, and her aura is incredibly assuring and calming. She was so courteous and professional and would check in with us every few weeks until our wedding day. Laurie was so accommodating, and really made us feel that she was invested in our day, and in helping us to capture it the way we wanted. We took engagement photos as well, and she gave us suggestions on where to go and helped us to feel comfortable being photographed, even though I hate being in front of a lens! She captured the most beautiful shots at our wedding that truly encompass the whole feeling of our day. The photos were artistic and beautifully framed, but more than anythi... Read moreng were so REAL and honest - like the personality of each guest was perfectly framed for that brief moment in time. All our guests were raving about her as well, and how great she was! I cannot recommend Laurie enough - a wonderful photographer, and truly a delight to work with!

Laurie is an exceptional professional who walked us through the wedding photography process and supported us from start to finish. We met in a Starbucks and immediately got comfortable, discussing our various options with showcase of sample photos from past weddings, her photography inspirations (if I recall, your first b&w photo of a child and splashing water), recommendations, pricing options, etc. Laurie's love for her work shows and she is the most friendly person to work with. The results are phenomenal, with two of my favorite photos posted here. This is long overdue, but thank you so much for being a part of our special day. We couldn't have asked for a better person.

My husband and I decided to have a small, simple, and sweet ceremony at City Hall and Laurie served as our photographer and witness! We chose her for her documentary style of shooting and she absolutely captured the moments of that morning beautifully. She seems to have a really good understanding of lighting. Not to mention she was professional, punctual, and just an overall pleasant person to be around. Highly recommend. Thank you Laurie!

Laurie was the photographer for our wedding on 9/8/17. Throughout the wedding planning and the day of, she was extremely responsive and helpful. We initially met her for coffee and told her about our wedding, what we wanted her to photograph (us getting ready + the whole ceremony/reception) and she helped us develop a plan. Prior to the day of, she actually went to our venue (the New York Botanical Gardens) and scouted out the best places for photos. This was not something we asked her to do. Not only was it a pleasant surprise, it was also a huge time saver since she already knew where to go for the best shots.
Overall, Laurie was extremely professional and the whole experience was great. We got our photos back and we're very happy with the mix of candid shots and posed ones. Thank you Laurie for capturing our special day!

My husband and I hired Laurie for our wedding at Trinity Church - Wall Street and reception at Pier A Harbor House in NYC. She was absolutely incredible to work with. She also took beautiful engagement photos of us. Very detailed, very responsive, very flexible. She got some great shots and wasn't distracting. She worked well with the other vendors. Most importantly, her documentary-style approach to photography produced some amazing images! Very high-end and elegant photos!
