WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY & VIDEOGRAPHY. BASED IN NEW YORK CITY & AVAILABLE WORLDWIDE.

We're a collective of like-minded artists cut from the same creative cloth. Collaborating, challenging each other, and yes, even competing a little. It's what keeps the work sharp.

Years of shooting side-by-side has made us better without making us the same. Five artists, five ways of seeing the wedding day. One of them is yours.

――― Love Notes ―――

Ryan…………Those dots represent the silence of our jaws dropping. Or if you prefer, the tears we continued to weep while watching this… even during the fourth time in a row. There are no words to describe how shook we are. This is just a more perfect encapsulation of the night than we could have ever dreamed of. We will have more words as they come to us, but for now, thank you so much for this!

Justin & Mike

I wish I could give you the BIGGEST HUG! These photos are stunning and mean the world to us!! Can't thank you enough for making this day so special. You're the best!!

Jeremy & Sabrina

Just wanted to send our thanks again for spending the day up in Beacon to document the absolute magic that was yesterday. We feel so overwhelmed with gratitude to have been able to work with you both. I've been following (and very much fangirling) over your artistry and talent on IG for years before Suneet even proposed... the fact that we were able to work with you both on our wedding day is one of the biggest blessings.

We've been flooded with compliments on the energy you both provided throughout the entire day. Photo and video aside, we and both our families think you two are incredible humans. My brother and sis in law particularly acknowledge and deeply appreciate the love and care you provided to their little family of 5 (soon to be 6)! Thank you for treating our family and friends as if they were your own. You both have the biggest hearts.

We're not sure what we did to deserve working with the most talented vendors for our wedding day. We'll be counting our lucky stars over here for a very very long time. Sending endless gratitude to you both. It was an absolute honor working with you guys!

Suneet & Kirstie

Holy cow... the video is absolutely insane!!! We knew you were phenomenal but you both still managed to absolutely blow us away with your work. THANK YOU so so much, truly no one compares to you guys! We are so grateful!! You captured everything so beyond perfectly, we are just beaming and now rewatching hahha

Phil & Nicole

Ryan and Heidi, this is unreal! Honestly, I'm speechless. No notes, you guys crushed this video! You're true professionals, so talented, and we can't sing your praises enough. You guys really made our night - your enthusiasm and direction was everything and made us so comfortable! You truly felt like guests we had known forever and not hired hands on our big day. That's so special and you should be so proud of the experience and memories you provide. I don't know what else to say other than we adore/miss you both and wish we could live that night on repeat forever.

Seamus & Bev

Paul and Ben were absolute game-changers for our wedding. We feel like we won the lottery with them as a team. They are masters of their craft - they captured our wedding, our vision, and US in the most beautiful way, and they made us look way cooler than we actually are. They made us feel comfortable and we had an absolute blast working with them. From our initial outreach all the way through receiving our photos/video, the team at FitN were completely professional, responsive, timely, and high-caliber. During our wedding, they handled all photo/video timelines with ease, grace, and smiles. Our planning team was able to fully let them take charge for any photo/video needs and moments. Even our guests complimented us on the vibe they brought to the wedding - we feel so lucky to have had a chance to work with them. And the outputs were beyond our wildest dreams. We entrusted both of them completely with editing and gave almost no direction (ha), with good reason because they came out even better than we could have imagined. I can't thank Paul, Ben, and the entire the FitN team for documenting the most special day of our lives and allowing us to relive our favorite memories and our favorite people again and again. Makes me want to throw another wedding just to rehire them. Worth every single cent and more.

Joe & Emma

If I could give Ryan and Heidi ten stars, I would. From our very first call to receiving our final photos and videos, they have been such a pleasure to work with! They are an incredibly talented photography and videography team who captured our wedding day flawlessly. They truly captured us as a couple in the most genuine and fun way. We are obsessed with our collection of timeless portraits and pure joy candids. And our video clip literally blew us away, capturing our special day in the most perfect way that we will treasure forever! But beyond their amazing work, they were the ultimate hype team! They brought so much fun, laughter, and amazing energy to our day, making everyone feel at ease in front of the camera. It felt like hanging out with old friends who also happen to be incredibly skilled.

Josh & Maria

I LOVED working with Forged in the North. I worked with Paul as my wedding photographer and he is a DREAM. He has such a great energy and was so easy to be around and photograph with. We just got our photos back and I'm blown away they are SO GOOD! Do yourself a solid and book with them, I can't recommend them highly enough.

Buda & Giovanna

When I tell you, I started shaking and my heart was beating out of my chest as tears fell from my eyes, with a smile so big....it would just scratch the surface of how I felt when I saw or video for the very first time. We were watching in our living room and we hooked it up to the tv to watch it on the big screen and Jeff and I were in utter disbelief that this is ours. Our wedding video!! To say it is breathtaking ...is an understatement. You absolutely, 100% knocked this out of the park. Literally, no words. We watched it over. And over. And over and over again last night for hours. Watched it on repeat again today! I can't tell you how many times we have watched and are just falling more madly in love with it each time. You guys, the song is epic. Jeff and I are in LOVE with it. It's moody, glorious, somber (in the coolest most insane way ever) it gives us ALL the feels. We didn't email you right away because we were too busy watching it over and over again and we even thought about calling you guys today because we didn't know if an email is even appropriate or would do how we feel justice. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for this, for your time, for the love you put into this, and for your incredible talents. Your skills are beyond anything we have ever seen. The shots you guys captured were so incredible, all the different angles from above, underneath, from the side side, capturing just our hands holding each other.... just everything from all of that to the lighting, editing, movement of the camera... seriously in awe. Can't tell you enough how much we love it and you guys! We are literally squeaking with excitement!! Okay well, I'm the squeaker, but Jeff is seriously obsessedddddd with it and can't get enough of it! He may not be squeaking but he can't stop smiling about it.

Ryan, Heidi, Thank you both for making our wedding something we will always remember in the most insanely beautiful way!

Sending you guys big hugs and kisses!!!
