Western New York Wedding Photography

Bemont Photo is a small family photography team doing great wedding photography in Rochester, Buffalo, the Finger Lakes, and the rest of Western NY! We'll capture every great moment and detail so you'll remember your day forever.

Timeless Pictures

- Every picture you receive will be carefully edited, but we're not over-processing them with trendy filters - we aim for a bright, colorful, and neutral style that will still look good after tastes have changed

Amazing Turnaround Time

- You'll have your pictures within a month, guaranteed, and most couples get their photos sooner. Splurge for Priority Editing to get them in a week!

Clear Pricing

- If you're sick of vendor websites hiding their pricing, packages, and availability, you'll love our interactive price calculator!

Efficient Wedding Days

- We won't keep you out doing photos for two hours - we hated it on our wedding day, and we prioritize getting you back to the party

Calm and Flexible

- Your wedding day could get crazy, but we'll be your rock! We practically invented "going with the flow". We will help you stick to your timeline, but sometimes the timeline just fails and we will make it work!

Unobtrusive

- You'll forget we're there for much of the day (apart from our great jokes). We generally use longer-range lenses and stay out of your business. You won't see us sprinting around in a tizzy.

Download Rights

- Use your pictures however you like! Your gallery will let you download all your pictures in high resolution - order your own albums and prints, and share on social media to your heart's content!

Simple Booking

- No printing, scanning, or mailing - all your interactions with us can be done virtually (apart from the photography). You can e-sign your contract and pay via Venmo or credit card

Reliable

- We're punctual, organized, and insured. We have plenty of backup gear, and all your photos get backed up to multiple locations.

Common Wedding Photography Questions

Everything You Need To Know About Bemont Photo

How far do you travel? - We're based in Rochester, NY and regularly travel to Buffalo, Syracuse, Chautauqua, Batavia, Geneseo, and throughout the Finger Lakes Region including Canandaigua, Geneva, Skaneateles, and Ithaca. We charge a moderate travel fee when going more than 45 minutes from home base.

How long does it take to receive our pictures? - Your contract guarantees pictures within thirty days of the wedding, but it's often less. And if you're into instant gratification, you can opt for Priority Editing and get your pictures within one week!

Should we do an engagement session? - We don't require an engagement session, but we recommend it because we get a chance to meet and work together before your wedding, and you'll get some practice posing! But we'll still cut the price if you don't need it.

Do I need two photographers? - We do just fine with one photographer and it saves you money, but a second photographer gives you more angles and more chances to catch candid moments. So you'll get more pictures and variety with two; and three is even better!

Who is your second photographer? - We don't have a "second photographer" - we're a team of three photographers and we love to work together!

What's your style? - Photo-y! We just get pictures of everything, capturing tons of candid moments without neglecting the posed photos (your mom wants them even if you don't). We edit in a clean, natural style because tastes change and highly edited photos just look dated in a few years.

What happens if you get sick/die or your kids have an emergency? - We have three wedding photographers and you're probably hiring two. So we can handle unexpected illness or injury. And if our kids are sick, we have an awesome and extensive and local family who watches our kids while we work, and we trust them with any emergency.

Can we book you? - Sure!

Right, but how? - Oh. Start with the contact form below, where you can check our availability! Then we can do a Zoom call or stick to email. To seal the deal, complete an online contract and deposit! Then you can book your engagement session any time before the wedding. We'll get in touch about a month before the wedding to get all the good details about your itinerary.

What are your packages? - We really don't have "packages" - we price based on duration, distance (as measured from our couch), number of photographers, and whatever extras you want. But if you're looking for a starting point, our price calculator starts with solid standard choices.

What do you charge? - Use the price calculator to build the perfect package for your wedding!

How do we pay you? - At Bemont Photo, we always go the extra mile to get your money. So pay us however you like! We prefer Venmo, but cash, credit , and checks are fine.

My venue is asking about insurance for my vendors... ? - No problem! We have liability insurance and will be happy to send your venue a certificate.

Don't you just LOVE sparkler exits? - No.

The Bemont Photo Team | Rochester Wedding Photography

Your wedding photo dream team

Here's the story: Andy is married to Gillian (right). Andy learned photography to take pictures of their kid... but then of course he wanted all the fancy photography gear. Gillian encouraged him to start a business, and Bemont Photo launched in 2017! But you need two photographers for most weddings, so he taught Gillian. But then there was another kid, and Gillian couldn't go to so many weddings - so her sister Carly swept in to save the day, and today shoots most of the weddings with Andy.

Since then, we've taken half a million pictures of 150+ weddings at venues across Western New York, and only pissed off one client (we'll tell you all about it if you want). We love working together, and we'd love to bring our little team to your wedding! So check out our pictures and get in touch if you like what you see!
