When I met Joseph and Siw and immediately knew that i wanted them to photograph my wedding, and I am so happy I chose them. Joseph was amazing, we were all crammed in a small apartment and he didnt make me feel at all stressed, he was easy going and so cool! He took amazing pictures of everyone, I havent seen the photos yet but I know they will be incredible! Even my guests are commenting on how great the photographer was. I cant wait to see our photos I know they will be Amazing! Thank you Joseph!!

It was just perfect. Very nice service and because we came from Norway,everything was planned by Mail. We always got a quick response,and they gave us info about who to do my make-up etc, for our wedding and were very helpful. We decided where to be,and Siw followed us where we wanted.Really appreciate the service we got! During the photo session Siw made us feel comfortable and relaxed Even though we dont like being photographed,and the pictures look great! Thank you!

We travelled from Norway to Florida to get married, and most of our communication with Pessar Photographers was via the Internet. They were quick to reply to our enquiries, flexible (we moved the date after making an appointment, and this was fine by them), and they had great ideas for spots to take pictures in the area. We are very much looking forward to seeing the pictures, and we were told this would take between four and six weeks.

I am so happy for choosing Pessar to take our wedding pictures. I was uncertain if we actually needed a wedding photographer, but I know now that I would have regret it for ever if I didn't, when I saw how beatiful our pictures turned out to be. Also, Joseph was a very sweet and comfortable person, and it was easy to relax with him. Siw has been our contact person by e-mails and are so sweet in her replys. Our familys weren't at the actual wedding, and the feedback is that they are truly touched by the captured emotions in the pic's. Also I love that the pic's are a bit untraditional. We've got real value for the money, this would have cost way much more where we're from! All in all - dice-roll 6! Loved it!!

Helped us out on short notice, took beautiful pictures of me, my husband an daughter. Great to have a ready website you can share with friends and family. Would definitive recommend this vendor to others. (a minus for being late to share the website and late to send us the DVD- but when you see the result you forgive that :)

Joseph Pessar did a great job with our wedding photography. They were able to capture some edgy and unique shots that I just wasn't seeing in other photographer's portfolios. They provided a lot of service at a highly competitive price and I enjoyed working with their team...the photos have brought us a ton of smiles from our memories.

Joseph Pessar Photographers were our wedding photographers at our Norwegian wedding August 5th 2011 in New York City. They did an amazing job. They were very professional and organized by responding promptly to our requests leading up to our wedding. They even met us one year in advance when we were visiting New York in 2010. In our wedding Joseph Pessar did a fantastic job. During the whole day he payed attention to details to make sure our wedding pictures were perfect and filled with happiness. Pessar is easy to work with and we felt so comfortable with him during our day. Having Joseph Pessar as our wedding photographer made our day special and we are so happy with the result. We highly recommend Joseph Pessar as a wedding photographer. Synne & Espen, Oslo, Norway

> Thank you so much for the kind words!! We had so much fun on your wedding day, the two of you are amazing people, and we are so happy to be part of your day! Best wishes Siw and Joe

We are a couple from Vienna, Austria [Europe] who decided to get married in NYC in September 2010. While our entourage was rather small [8 pax, including us] and while we knew we didn't want anything too extravagant [except it happening in New York], it was definitely clear to us that one thing needed to be special and extraordinary - the photographs. After all, that's about the best memorizing "tool" that you'll have in years and decades to come when you think back about your wedding. While organizing everything from Europe, the choice of photographer would ultimately be done through Google, and that's how we came accross Joseph Pessar. While we immediately loved his work that's published around the net, the question of his schedule and our budget was still kind of open. Luckily for us, none of these were a deal-breaker, as Joseph and us ultimately agreed on a very fair price as well as shooting time. We got married in Central Park [Ladies Pavillion], Joseph met us at our apartment in order to do some pre-ceremony shoot, which was kinda cool, as he was able to catch us in both coolness as in anxiety before the big moment. The ceremony went very smoothly, Joseph definitely caught the best moments, but it was the post-ceremony shoot that we were really looking forward to. We asked and agreed to have a post-ceremony shooting in some rather "unusual" locations in NYC, not showing the typical NY, rather "dirty, cheap & punk rock" so we asked Joseph to suggest and choose the spots where we - though dressed elegantly - would come off totally "married" but at a lousy corner where you wouldn't wanna hang at unless you lived there ;-) While NYC & Manhattan - in the meantime - probably don't have the reputation that it used to have in the 70s & 80s, the Meatpacking district definitely provided what we were looking for. And Joseph, having lived there years ago, definitely knew what spots, corners & locations would make this a totally rock n roll shoot. As far as the actual shooting goes, we've never seen [and we did have some on and off experiences with photographers] such a dedicated photographer as Joseph. He is and was able to switch from "everyday wedding" to something rather unusual, he was leading us during the shoot in the way that we'd experiment and try to be as outgoing but still stay comfortable in our skins :-). While knowing the neighborhood, we could see and relate to Joseph's ideas on the spot, as he was getting new ones every 5 yards we walked, so we definitely got ourselves such a diverse and extraordinary shoot and pictures that we're still being envied for such a great experience and photographs. And while we were a bit worried regarding the scheduled time [we were running late in all segments with the wedding, ceremony, the dinner afterwards etc.], Joseph kept cool at all times and never gave us the feeling of "X-hours and not a minute longer", which was totally fantastic and definitely helped us ease down. Our entire shoot lasted about 4,5hrs, and we got some 350-400 wonderful pictures out of it. Joseph was able to provide us a sneak-peek at the pictures the same evening [great service!]. We received the DVD with the entire collection some 3 weeks later by mail, as agreed, which was totally fine, knowing that a couple of friends had to wait a couple of months for their pictures by other photographers. A day or two after the wedding we met Joseph and his wonderful wife Siw on a social occasion and we can definitely say that we've become friends during this one of a kind experience. Great guys! Ultimately, if you're looking for an extraordinary and unforgettable experience taken in pictures, we definitely recommend Joseph. His uniqueness through the lens definitely made the happiest day of our lives even more happier.

> Thank you sooo much!! You guys are such a great couple to work with and and to be with!! We are so glad that our paths have passed each other!! It has been a pleasure getting to know you two and we look forward to seeing you again!! hopefully soon!!

We were so happy to have Joseph Pessar Photographers as our photographers, they captured the essence of emotions and highlights of our special day through pictures. They are professional and pay attention to details no matter how big or small from start to finish. The quality of pictures taken are dramatic, eloquent and very beautiful as if they were out of a magazine. Joseph's personal touch, direction as well as photographic eye are priceless when it comes to setting up a shot that will total capture the moment. Working with Siv Pessar was a pleasure as well as added yet another dimension to our experience. Her tenacity to be creative on the spot aided in beautifying our pictures quality. To this day, when we look at our pictures, we can totally relive our event and say, Wow!! We have also had great feedback from both family and friends alike on our pictures. The photographers make you feel very comfortable despite the stress of getting married. I ,for one have never felt so beautiful and at ease. We truly enjoyed our experience with Joseph Pessar Photographers while embracing our special day and all that it had to offer at the same time. We are very blessed and pleased to have had Joseph Pessar Photographers at our event.

> Thanx!! You are such a great couple, it was so much fun sharing your day with you, you both were glowing!!

Brides: if you are looking for an amazingly artistic photographer, hire Joseph Pessar! He captured hundreds (if not thousands!) of special moments which we will cherish for a lifetime. He is by far the most awesome! Thanks to him, the memories will be kept alive FOREVER! Other than hiring Joseph Pessar, the only advice I can give in this category is DONT BE CHEAP with photos! Your wedding night will be a blur just moments after it is all done. You will have undoubtedly "missed" a few great moments shared by your guests. But no need to worry, if you hire Joseph Pessar, him and his team will have caught them!

My wedding day was the fastest 12 hours of my life. Thanks to the superb professionalism, the creative approach, and the natural vibe of Joseph and his team I have the pleasure of reliving that day over and over again. Every moment was captured, and then some. The only "shot" missing was the one of my husband toasting our photographers! Quality and Professionalism was beyond expectation. Value is priceless, and the tangible goods delivered for the price is exceptional.

We were so very fortunate to have found Joseph Pessar Photographers for our daughter's wedding! The personal care, attention and quality of his work was way beyond our expectations. The photos are truly living documents to this special day. There is such feeling and expression in the work that it just puts you right back there, reliving every moment. The photos were delivered as contracted, the album was a masterpiece! There is no hesitation in recommending Joseph for every event that you want remembered. We hope to have him photograph our 43rd Anniversary this December.
