Kristy May Photography | New York City and Long Island Wedding Photographer

Kristy

I really do love photographing weddings and truly believe I have found my calling. Somehow I keep finding the most amazing clients. Perhaps you will be one?

I specialize in providing couples with an intimate approach to their wedding photography needs, pre, post, and day of. Your experience is very important to me. I want my couples and their families to enjoy as much of their wedding as possible. Therefore, outside of a few portraits, I work as inconspicously as possible because it is your wedding day, not a photo shoot!

I also believe that wedding photography should be classic in nature, meant to look beautiful decades from now. Therefore, I don’t rely on trendy filters, post-processing or funky lenses and I only offer the highest quality albums and print options.

My Background

I started photographing in high school and eventually worked as a photojournalist at a small paper in Southern Louisiana post college. Then a Fulbright grant took me to Berlin, Germany, where I worked for the Associated Press and later, Hurricane Katrina sent me to New York to work for a National Geographic photographer, Ira Block. I received a masters in digital photography in 2008 from The School of Visual Arts.

Along the way, my work has been published in various places, including: Well Wed, Culture, Saveur, Apartment Therapy, Edible New Orleans, NRC Handelsblad, Newsday, AM New York, Time Out Kids, Time Out Eating and Drinking Guide 2008In additional to freelancing for editorial publications, Kristy shares her knowledge of digital photography and printing with consulting clients.
