Sean Shapiro Photography

My fiancé and I had a great experience getting our engagement photos with Sean. Even though we were 20 minutes late to our appointment, he was totally understanding and professional! We managed to get 240 shots in and he event went a little over because we were late. We did the shoot in Central Park with our 2 chihuahuas – Sean was very good with the dogs and managed to hold them and shoot pictures in shots that were just the 2 of us. Even though we are totally not photogenic, Sean had good sites and good ideas of poses and I really treasure these photos.
In terms of nuts and bolts with engagement photos, Sean charged us 150 for the hour (so much more reasonable than other photographers I looked at). He gave us the 240 photos to look through in low-​res, then we selected our top 20 photos, and he doctored them and gave us each of our favorites in high-​res, one color and one black and white.
I would recommend Sean to anyone doing engagement photos, and definitely definitely go to central park!

I totally recommend Sean! He did amazing photos of me and my friends. He found such great places, I love his style and we had a very good time with him. Do not hesitate! Thank you Sean for my last reminder of NYC.

Sean did a FABULOUS job with our engagement photo session! He was patient and creative and found the best spots to capture our photos! He edited all of the photos beautifully and he got them to us within a week of taking the photos. We will definitely be calling Sean again for any photo needs! Thanks so much, Sean!

Very happy with Sean’s work. He was professional and skilled. If you need a competent photographer for head shots and other pictures he is a good man for the job.

Sean took new headshots for me this year, and I couldn’t be more pleased with how they turned out.
I found Sean through LivingSocial, and I appreciate when photographers find new clients this way. He was extremely pleasant to work with, and allowed me to change clothes as many times as I needed (which was more than what the LivingSocial voucher allowed for). Sean brought out the best smile in me during our session together, and he even edited up to 20 of final shots I decided on. Most photographers won’t edit this many unless you pay extra.
I only gave Sean 4 stars because he was a few minutes late to our shoot and needed more time to finalize my shots. BUT… this just means that Sean is extremely busy AND in high demand, as well he should be. He was 110% communicative throughout the entire process and I would recommend him in a heartbeat to any fellow performers!
Keep up the great work, Sean! :)

Sean took pictures for my family, including my 5 month old son. He was great with my son and very easy to work with – I had asked for a quick turnaround time and he got me everything very quickly. I also loved that I have access to all of the pictures, and could select the ones I liked most for him to touch up. I’d definitely consider working with him again.

Sean is very professional and patient! We did a photo shoot for two babies under the age of one. He helped pick the perfect location and the photos turned out amazing!

Sean was great to work with! My husband and I did an hour long maternity shoot when I was about 7 months along. He had some really creative ideas and made the session fun and relaxed. The photos came out great and he was very prompt about uploading and editing them. Would definitely work with him again!

Sean was very professional and the pics came out great. He made my 5 month old son smile over and over. I highly recommend him.

We met with Sean for our engagement photos. Even before we met in person Sean was super responsive and accommodating of our ideas and tight schedule. When we met up in Central Park for our pictures, Sean made us feel so relaxed and comfortable (even on one of the most humid days of the summer with rain clouds rolling in). We were able to capture tons of images and he never made us feel rushed even when we had a wardrobe change. He sent us all of our images so we could pick and he edited them just right to capture the colors and mood of the picture. We would totally recommend Sean to anyone.

Sean was great to work with for an hour family photo session with my husband and two year old son. He was patient and flexible. He communicated promptly about our appointment — debating the possible rainy weather. He took beautiful photos and sent them to me in a reasonable time (like a week and a half). I highly recommend for family or kid photos. I like having access to all my photos via dropbox versus paying outrageous fee for prints. Will use again!

Sean was great! I’ve never been the most comfortable with having my photo taken, but really needed some new head shots. Sean was patient and was very easy to work with. I’d highly recommend Sean and most certainly use him in the future.

I needed a professional headshot for my Linkedin profile. I am very glad I chose Sean. We went to grand central and took shots at varied locations. He is very professional, pleasant to talk to, accommodating, very knowledgeable, and mostly importantly very passionate about photography. I knew his work would be amazing when I felt how excited he was about his new camera and how passionate he is about photography. I am very happy with the pictures! I highly recommend him to anyone who needs some amazing photoshoots!

Sean was a real pleasure to do our pregnancy photoshoot with! He is professional, courteous, creative, and very talented. He made even the most simple shots look glamorous. He is patient, listens to your ideas, and tries to incorporate them into his plan for your photos. We highly recommend him for your photoshoots in NYC. He also knows the best spots for optimal pictures and will customize your photoshoot for whatever your individual style is. Thank you Sean for such amazing shots! We will definitely contact you again if we need photos in the future.

If you’re looking for a photographer who’s creative, organized and punctual then, you’ve come to the right place. Sean is one of the BEST in the business. He will listen to you and try to achieve the results that you’ll be happy with. Personally, I was looking for some portraits to be used for an online dating site and met Sean in the city where he spent a quite amount of time with me in order to get the perfect lighting and environment to achieve the best possible results. I have already posted the shots and the feedback has been tremendous.
I definitely suggest that you call Sean for your photography needs. You will be more than happy that you did.

In short, Sean is a true professional. He went out of his way to meet me in the location I selected to do some portrait photos. He worked with me to get the pictures I wanted and guided me through the process of getting a good portrait shot. He collaborated with me to find the best spots and poses to generate excellent results. I would recommend him to anyone who needs portraits done in an outdoor setting.
