Advantages of New Gear & Session with Miss Bella

The last blog entry I wrote was about gear – you can find it here. It was a dilemma and a tough one. New camera, new technology – we’ve had to consider the workflow, the price, the need vs want, the advantages vs disadvantages, etc etc. After nearly a month of putting Nikon Z 6…

Gear: Nikon Z series finally arrived.

I finally got the Nikon Z6 with FtZ adapter. The camera arrived earlier then expected, supposedly it is because I’m an NPS member. It has been a week since I’ve received it and honestly, I can’t say I love it nor do I hate it. Mind you, most of my previous purchases were typically “OMG,…

‘Tis the Season: Professional Holiday Portraits in NYC

It’s that time again… ok, this isn’t an advertisement, but a bit about our holiday sessions. Every year, sometimes in late July, early August, Angela starts planning the holiday sessions. Naturally, she’s asking me which backgrounds I like; naturally, I answer “whatever you like”, which leads to something along the lines of “you’re no help”….

Five Years… and counting

Hello, my name is Joseph… sounds like a beginning to one of the _Anonymous meetings… I have been privileged to enter video/photography/memory capturing industry from mid 90s. Over the years, while being primarily a wedding photographer, I have seen the start of many families. However, it was the incorporation in family photography where I began…

Smash Cake Photography NYC

Brooklyn, New York, home of Bensonhurst Blues lol by Oscar Brenton and it is also home of Picture Perfect NY. We have people coming to us from all boroughs of NYC, Rockland County, Yonkers, New Jersey and Connecticut. We even have few clients who come to us from Massachusetts, Pennsylvanian and California.

Angela is such a passionate photographer. That passion is obvious in the photos she takes and moments she captures. Her positive energy flows into every aspect of her work. Her work is simply amazing and unlike anything I have seen before. Her backdrops and outfits are truly GORGEOUS. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a newborn and maternity session. You will not be disappointed at all.. thank you so much 💓

Overall awesome experience even though my son wasn’t too happy about the cake. Angela was very patient and suggested some ideas to help calm my son. We definitely worked as a team and made it through the session. Angela got awesome shots! One wouldn’t believe he had meltdowns during his shoot. I also loved the theme set ups.. very spot on! I will consider coming back for his next major milestone!

I had a wonderful experience. I had an appointment for one day but my baby was not cooperating so they rescheduled me which was very sweet of them. When I rescheduled at first my baby was not sleeping again which made me nervous, but then Angela was very patient and she did all that she could to help my baby fall asleep. However while he was awake she got many beautiful pictures that I loved. She was very professional, patient and comforting. She used all of the props and costumes that I asked and took her time. She even gave me suggestions that improved the images beyond my expectations. You can tell that she does everything she needs to do to make sure she got the perfect shot. She took wonderful care of my baby. I cannot wait to see how the pictures turned out and I look forward to working with her in the future. By far, my favorite photo shoot!

I went into our session thinking this will be easy. Boy was I wrong!!! My little princess was not having it. However, Joe our photographer tried his best to make us all comfortable. His patience and diligence is something to be admired. During the whole session I kept telling him how this was not turning out to be what I expected but he told me that this happens all of the time and it is something to be expected. He tried everything to accommodate my Princess. He tried toys, making funny sounds, YouTube and we even took a few breaks. Our session went over in time and he just let it be. I was so happy with him that words can not explain. I did leave disappointed in my princess but he reassured me that there definitely will be some good pictures. He told me that it would take a month to get the pictures but to my surprise I received them in 2 1/2 weeks. I opened the album and I couldn’t believe how many good shoots he was able to get. I am so happy with his work. He is amazing and I can’t wait to work with him in the future!!!!

I was in desperate need of capturing my little man while he was still tiny, and stumbled upon "Picture Perfect NY" while doing a google search. BEST DECISION OF MY LIFE!!!!! The studio is extremely clean and very welcoming to both mom and baby. My son's photographer Angela is nothing short of amazing, both personality wise and as a photographer; she was extremely tender and patient with both me and my son, and was more than willing to clarify all of my concerns. The words of a million poets cannot explain how IMPRESSED and PLEASE I am with the service and not to mention my son's photos. With service like that I was bound to spend much more than I intended to, but I have no regrets because I would never put a price memories. I'm soooooo looking forward to doing his milestone shots with Picture Perfect NY, and I would strongly recommend using their services any day!!... i had an awesome experience!!!

Picture Perfect was Perfect! We took our 3 year old boy for photos in their studio - he is naturally very shy and usually doesn't feel comfortable with people he just met. Joseph has an amazing ability to connect with toddlers and was able to make our son laugh. Everything went smoothly, the studio was set up prior to our arrival and all emails were answered within an hour. The only complaint we have is trying to pick the best photos from the raw gallery because every single picture is beautiful !!! We cant thank you enough for capturing this moment in our child's life - we will cherish this forever!

Joe recently photographed our maternity shoot. He was very professional and took some amazing shots we will remember as a family forever. Joe was super patient and helpful with our 3 year that it made our photography session very enjoyable. The photos were returned to us very quickly which was such a wonderful surprise. The pictures turned out amazing. We will definitely use them for our photography sessions in the future. So happy I found them.

Newborn and Family Photography at its finest! I traveled all the way to NY from Haverhill, Ma....just near the Border of Southern NH for our family portraits! I heard Angela has trained with the best Newborn Photographers out there in the business and Joe has extensive experience in family and wedding photography. I first heard of Picture Perfect NY during a Photography workshop I attended in NY....I saw their work and fell in love! I have a family of 6 and I am a big girl ( and don’t like pictures of myself😣) and even though they are not babies, they are still a tough crowd....BUT NOT tough for Angela and Joe!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE our family pictures😍They made me feel beautiful and the images make me appear more slim just by the way I was posed!! I never thought I’d like a picture of myself again....But I was proven wrong😃We will be back....even though it takes us 4 hours to get there!❤️HIGHLY RECOMMENDED ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Angela is amazing. We came back for our second newborn shoot after she took amazing photos of our oldest. She was thoughtful, patient and had great ideas for the different shots. It was hard to pick our favorites since she took such adorable photos. She also asked for our preferences in advance so everything was ready when we arrived. And she somehow magically captured a beautiful photo of our toddler cuddling up to our newborn. We will be back! Thanks so much, Angela! :-)

My daughter had her newborn photo session at Picture Perfect. It was a great experience. Angela is very professional and knowledgeable. She has great ideas and vision. She decided on the accessories and poses for my baby and I was very impressed and satisfied with the outcome of the pictures. I am looking forward to my baby's next photo session with Picture Perfect in the near future.

We just had an amazing experience at Picture Perfect NY. We took our daughter to her one year old cake smash session and my twin nephews for theirs. Our babies were really hard to work with, but Angela and her husband made sure to get best possible pictures of our babies. She was really patient and professional. Loved everything about our session.. the backdrops were amazing with beautful details.. just how I wanted it to be. Highly recommend this place for all kind of photo sessions. Hope to work with them in future again!

We are very happy with the service that we received and will be recommending Picture Perfect to our family and friends. We were looking for a good quality family portrait for our wedding anniversary and a good friend recommended this studio. Joe is very professional and pleasant , he provide a fun easy atmosphere for all of us. I would definitely come back for the next big family event!

After a wonderful photoshoot of our elder son, this time we went for our younger son which off course, was another pleasant outcome. We had already told what background we needed and it proved to be a good choice. Angela was pretty patient as usual and was able to get some very cute photos.

This was my first time taking my daughter to take professional photos, she’s 4. It truly was a great experience. Both Joe and Angela were very patient and very kind. You can tell they are both very passionate about photography and they both love children. They made us feel very comfortable. They took amazing photos. They have such beautiful back drops and props. Joe made my daughter laugh the entire session. He made us laugh the entire session too. They are both truly amazing with kids. We are very thankful to them for such a great experience.

My experience with Angela and Joe was definitely one to remember. They made me feel so calm and at ease with their expertise in newborn photos and their props were everything! They dressed my 10 day old baby girl up so beautifully and even though I don’t have my prints yet, my experience and their attention to the smallest detail makes me confident in knowing that I am getting what I paid for, quality. I see this as an investment as a new mom who will have these prints for a lifetime. I would definitely recommend booking with Picture Perfect NY if you want a great experience and seemingly unmatched quality.

Joe and Angela took the pictures for my daughter's newborn photoshoot. They were both very patient and gentle with her. You can tell both of them really enjoy their jobs and are enthusiastic and attentive when it came time to take the pictures. It's an amazing environment and I would definitely come back or recommend them to anyone who needs pictures of their kids.

This is my third time taking pictures here and my second time working with Angela. Both Angela and Joe are both great, especially Angela who is very patient with both of my children and able to capture some amazing and cute pictures of my newborn. If you want amazing quality pictures and exceptional service, I’d definitely recommend Angela and Joe!

We took our daughter for her first birthday cake smash and the photos came out stunning. They were easy to get in contact with via phone or email. The actual session experience was a lot easier then we expected. The set up for each picture was executed seamlessly from family photo, cake smash, to bath time photo. We had such a wonderful experience with Picture Perfect NY and I 100% recommend!

We decided on picture perfect for our one year old’s cake smash photos. We emailed them a Mickey Mouse theme and decided to also do some family photos. Our photo set was ready to go upon arrival. Joseph was very personable and briefed us on what to expect. He was very patient with our baby and we received and assortment of amazing photos. I must also say we expected the standard family poses but we got some shots that were quite unique and we loved them. We will definitely be coming back for our special photo needs.

After 3 month of research and looking for professional newborn Photographer i finally found Angela and Joe. Words cant describe how glad I am to choose Them. Being a photographer is not only having a nice Camera ( unfortunately a lot of ppl think that way) u must have unique Vision, which i found in Angela. This couple are amazing, very friendly and most important professionals. I will highly recommend PPNY for any Photo session. Their work is Simply amazing. Thank you for capturing our Memory. 💙😍

If you’re looking for professional photographs, taken by people who care about their work and actually deliver, LOOK NO FURTHER. My daughter was not into her cake smash session for her first birthday, but somehow they managed to capture smiles. I swore she barely smiled, but Angela and Joseph took patience and care, and were able to capture memories that I will keep for a lifetime. Thank you for making my daughters first birthday all the more memorable!

Angela and Joe were so wonderful. I didn't realize that newborn pics are taken so soon after birth. I was worried I missed our chance. Lucky Angela got back to me immediately and was able to squeeze us in to get pics. She was so great with our daughter who didn't fuss at all with her. She asked what colors I wanted, but I wanted to trust her judgement. I'm so glad I did. I loved every pic!!! I only wish we had gotten a bigger package! lol I highly recommend Picture Perfect for anyone who wants to capture their newborn in the sweetest pics!

From the very first contact with Angela and Joe, my husband and I knew we made the right choice. They were so prompt with responding to our emails and very informative & professional. We had our son's newborn photo session last week and cannot wait to see all the pictures! Angela was so great with our boy and extremely patient! It truly showed that she loves what she does and is very dedicated. My husband & I wanted a specific pose of our son and he was awake so the picture was difficult to capture. However, Angela kindly waited a long while for him to fall asleep so she could capture the photo we desired! It was perfect. We are so grateful we found Picture Perfect and would recommend them in a heartbeat. Thank you for giving us beautiful memories we can treasure forever!
