Farnaz K Studio

I am a client who hired Farnaz for my 2007 wedding. She was nothing but accommodating and professional during her time shooting my wedding. Weddings are hectic, unpredictable and can run people’s emotions and Farnaz handles all these changes beautifully during the day. Her photos are flawless and well posed. She is a true photojournalist and her experience is seen through the high quality of her work. In a industry which is flooded with people who can’t even focus their cameras right one should thank themselves and pat themselves on the back for hiring Farnaz.

Farnaz was a pleasure to work with and I loved the photographs she produced. I also really loved how she just blended into the wedding and was not at all disruptive while taking pictures. All of the candid shots were amazing, as were the posed photos that she kindly took as per our request. Her photos exceeded my expectations and I felt very natural while being photographed. My husband and I really loved Farnaz!

Farnaz has done an amazing job! Both my husband and I are pleased with her work. She is professional and easy to work with. Our wedding took place in Ritz Central Park. Farnaz took many good photos both inside and outside the hotel. With so many people around, she managed to capture those precious moments for us. I can tell that Farnaz loves her job. She worked very hard. For example, when we had the horse and carriage ride, she had to keep running in order to take good pictures. We greatly appreciate her hard work! I highly recommend her.

I used Farnaz 4 years ago for our wedding after seeing the amazing work she did for my brother in laws wedding. From the start, Farnaz was very structured in her approach and clear on what we would and would not get. Our Wedding was quite large and, as with all weddings, the family was quite demanding. But Farnaz demonstrated extreme patience and was able to manage multiple last minute requests. The quality of her work is excellent and we loved pretty much all the shots she took. She was really able to capture the true essence of our wedding. I would definitely recommend Farnaz to any bride!

Best experience I have had with a photographer. Our wedding day was a dream come true and Farnaz captured every special moment. I first met with Farnaz at her studio, she was so professional and welcoming. Not pushy at all like I had experienced with others. She showed me all our options for our wedding photographs before asking what our budget was. The day of my wedding at The Ritz Central Park, Farnaz was early with her asst as to make sure she was in sync with our wedding coordinator. She took shots of me getting ready with my fam and friends and then we headed off to Central Park, the church, then few special NYC landmarks my husband and I had chosen. I have to say I have never seen such amazing candid pics in my life, they are so unique, I get so many compliments. Farnaz was so amazing that the Ritz and my wedding planner now recommend her!!!

We had great experience with Farnaz! She was very professional. We got beautiful pictures from her. Very happy.

My husband and I hired Farnaz K as our wedding photographer a couple years ago at Chelsea Piers in NYC. Farnaz offered a distinctive quality that was absent from the others we met with. Her experience in other facets of photography were apparent, and her work reflects that of a true artisan. She worked within our budget and went the extra mile to ensure our satisfaction, delivering the beautiful memories we will always cherish.

My memories of my wedding will forever be «improved» because of Farmaz. You see, when I look at the photos that she took, everything looks perfect. Everyone looks insanely happy! No one looks anxious.
Farnaz’s fashion background will take your experience in a direction that you never thought of.
If you are looking for a wedding photographer that is a step above the rest, I strongly recommend Farnaz.

Not what I expected: poor communication, added stress to my wedding day. Poor overall experience, poor quality. Extremely disappointing.
I got married in NYC on a rainy NY Saturday in March. This review is from my husband and I. We just wanted to express the issues we had with using Farnaz for our wedding photography.
Main issues: No second shooter, unclear communication, poor results, attitude.
1) You pay for an assistant — but she never tells you it’s not a 2^nd camera until right before the wedding. I found out that she was the only shooter just before my wedding, and couldn’t replace Farnaz because I had signed the contract. She does have an assistant who is there with her the entire time (including the overtime I paid for her) — but she does not actually shoot — she only *changes Farnaz’s lenses*
2) Quality of images: I expected a lot better considering her behavior and attitude. We were really disappointed in the images, and very disappointed she did not listen to our requests or provide us with images that we had asked for.
3) Communication: Getting ready, she was pushy with the makeup artist and others. She stressed my bridal party out and was pretty rude to deal with. I felt really uncomfortable. As the night progressed, I saw her just standing around. I felt that she wasn’t putting in the effort. It felt like it was a job for her and she didn’t want to be there. And the images depict a certain lack of presence.
4) Post-​wedding, she provided me with a gallery quickly but it appears as though none were retouched. Her website is clunky and it was impossible to view in full mode, no matter if I was on a PC or Mac, and no matter the browser. She sent us a CD Rom with the files that we still cannot access. I emailed her twice to send me the images on a different device (thumb drive) but she was unresponsive. So we had to purchase an external CD Rom for $ 120 extra.
Bottom line — she really did not do anything I asked. She was unmanageable, stuck-​up and quite frankly, took really shoddy images. Out of 400, we like 10. She refused to try and take images of as many guests as possible. The entire thing was a mess— and no bride deserves to deal with this on her big day. We both really disliked the experience and regret we made the decision to go with her.

Farnaz is an exceptionally skilled photographer. To begin my search, I looked through almost all of the photographers in New York Magazine’s wedding section and perused their sites. From there, I narrowed it down to about 20 photographers in the NYC area that I sent to my husband. We ended up choosing Farnaz for a few reasons — 1) She isn’t just a wedding photographer. In fact, she only does a few weddings a year. She is widely versed in fashion photography, which means that she is quick on her feet and has a phenomenal ability to capture authentic images in lots of different lighting. 2) The photos displayed on her page are real. She isn’t really into staged photography. You won’t be spending hours posing for pictures when you should be enjoying time with your guests. She likes running around and capturing the best natural images, which is exactly what we wanted. 3) She is honest and straightforward. She doesn’t want to waste your time or hers. She lets you know exactly what you should do to be prepared — for engagement and/​or wedding photos so that she gets the best shots. At the end of the day, she knows her stuff in a real way and you will walk away with beautiful, authentic pictures. The initial reply from our family and bridal party was that our wedding photos truly captured the intimacy of our day. Highly recommend!!!
