Based in but not limited to Brooklyn, Rob Allen Photography is a destination wedding photography boutique that sees the beauty in every love story, no matter how big or small.
Family drives everything I do, which is why I believe so passionately in the importance of preserving these special memories for your new family. From maternity photos and family portraits to engagement and wedding photography, I artfully capture the moments in time that pass by far too quickly so you can hold on to them always.
The Rob Allen Photography Difference:
Choosing a wedding photographer in New York City or Brooklyn is a big decision that shouldn’t be taken lightly. The photographer you choose is tasked with immortalizing some of the most important memories of your life, so it’s imperative that the person you choose is the best fit for the job.
No matter where you are in your search, you’ve likely already noticed there are no shortage of wedding and engagement photographers in New York City. All are likely equipped with the skill and creativity to immortalize your most special moments, so what makes us stand out? Personality...
Beyond the skill and experience, it’s personality that makes the biggest difference in our work.
I understand that being in front of a camera isn’t natural for everyone. For some, it can be downright intimidating. No matter your level of camera shyness, we’re here to put your mind at ease. Before the very first click of the camera, I take the time to ensure that we’re a good fit. A comfortable match between the couple and the wedding photographer is key in creating the perfect, most natural-looking photos.
We’ll Get to Know Each Other
Engagement photos are the first step in documenting your love story from the very start, but it’s also an excellent time to start setting things in motion for the many memorable events to come. If you need an engagement photographer in New York or Brooklyn, I'm here to help with the details that will matter later in preparation for the big day.
During the engagement phase:
At Rob Allen Photography, I believe that documenting an engagement is so much more than taking staged photos; it’s about telling a story through those brief glimpses of your journey that say so much.
To do this story the justice it deserves, we take the time to get to know you and discover those little details that really tell your story. The secret to thoughtful and sentimental photos is a solid personality match between the photographer and the couple, so it’s important to us to take the time to make sure we’re the perfect fit.
Hair and makeup go hand in hand with photography, so it’s important during this time to start trying out makeup artists and hairstylists. Finding the people you’re comfortable with is the first step before working with them closely to pin down the style and looks you love the best.
I highly recommend MG Hair and Makeup for their award-winning looks that have appeared in magazines, on television, and the big screen. Check out our list of wedding vendors we’ve worked with as engagement photographers in New York City over the years to help take some of the stress out of the planning process and help you accustomed to the camera.
The more accustomed you are to being in front of a camera, the better your wedding pictures will be. Consider this practice for the big day. By the time the wedding comes, you’ll be so used to your photographer’s presence you’ll barely even take notice.
At Rob Allen Photography, I understand that a lot of the work to create the perfect wedding photos isn’t all behind the camera. It’s in the conversation and planning that goes into capturing those perfect moments. Wedding photos are an investment for preserving the most cherished moments of your life together, so your Brooklyn wedding photographer must work closely with you to understand your needs and vision.
As part of this investment, we offer a variety of media formats to preserve these memories for the future.
Whether you want an individual wallet size to carry around with you or a mural-sized photo to go in your home, all our digital image files are high resolution and ready to be printed directly from the online gallery immediately in any size you wish. Gone are the days of waiting for flash drives! With Rob Allen Photography, you have access to your photos immediately.
The online gallery is your entire collection in one convenient place for you and your family and friends to access. Active for one year, you and your loved ones can order prints and wall art directly from the site.
There’s something about the addition of music that helps bring photos to life. At Rob Allen Photography, I'll craft a slideshow of your engagement and wedding photos for you to enjoy differently for years to come.
If you’re looking for a physical keepsake, I’ve got you covered. Our handcrafted wedding albums perfectly capture your legacy and store it within a clasped leatherette box (upgradable to a walnut box customized with your names and wedding date).
The attention to detail of these albums is the very same level we put into capturing these moments on film. Tucked within a satin slipcase with microfiber inside and wrapped with a satin ribbon, these gorgeous keepsakes are your new family’s first heirloom.
