Affordable Wedding Photographer NYC

Why Affordable Doesn’t Mean Basic

Being an affordable wedding photographer in NYC doesn’t mean cutting corners. It means making space for real people, real love, and real connection without the pressure of a luxury price tag. At Scratch Studios, we believe great photography should be accessible, inclusive, and just as vibrant as the people in front of the lens. You won’t find stiff poses or filtered perfection here. Just bold, true-to-tone photos that feel like you.

We’ve been capturing weddings since 2011, and one thing is always true: the moments that matter most are the ones you don’t plan for. The laugh mid-vow. The hug that lingers. The dance floor chaos. Those are the shots we live for and we know how to spot them.

What to Expect When You Work With Us

We’re not just here to take pictures. We’re here to create ease, support your vision, and bring calm to the chaos of your big day. We’ll help with timelines, scout lighting, and stay flexible if things shift (because they always do). Whether you’re having a 200-person rooftop bash or an intimate backyard ceremony, we show up the same: ready to document your day with care and joy.

As a proudly queer-owned business, we’re deeply committed to inclusivity in every form - race, gender identity, sexual orientation, and culture. We want every couple to feel represented and celebrated, exactly as they are.
