My wife and I were shopping around for wedding photogs, came across HiLite Studios. After speaking with Mike we knew we found our photographers. Jim was our photgrapher & a true professional, we are looking at our proofs & are more than pleased with their work. HiLite was more than willing to listen to our suggestions(beach shots). They offer good package deals. We have no regrets on choosing them, I would highly recommend them to my friends and family. Mike & Jim, Thank You.
Dan & Eds married 10/06/11

Mike at hilite studios was the absolute soul of courtesy throughout the entire planning process. The photographer and videographer at the wedding were absolutely splendid. They were able to capture the entire essence of the day without getting in the way at all. Courteous and respectful from start to finish, the folks at Hilite Studios are definitely worth a visit. And the pictures and video came out great too.

My husband and I were married on June 18, 2011. We found Mike through a friend of mine who was married last year. I saw her pics and was like yeah they are nice and the price is reasonable I will give him a call. SO GLAD THAT I DID! I do photography and I know what I want and let me tell you when I saw my proofs I cried. They were so beautiful. Every picture was better that the next. If your getting married and live on long island definitely check out Hi-Lite Studios. Mike and Allen are awesome. They are friendly and make you feel so comfortable. We had so many laughs and so much fun. I have passed out so many business cards and told all my friends. These guys are amazing and I love the work they did. Hi-Lite, thanks for the beautiful memories and the perfect pictures... God Bless!!!!!

OMG THE BEST PHOTOS AROUND!!! BELIEVE IT, IT'S TRUE GREAT PRICES FOR HIGH QUALITY PHOTOS. PROFESSIONAL, RESPONSIBLE, FRIENDLY..... FABULOUS PICTURES. MY HUSBAND AND I WERE EXTREMELY PLEASED AND HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEM. JIM AND MIKE ARE AWESOME. THANKS FOR MAKING MY WEDDING DAY EXTRA SPECIAL...

They were so professional and took such beautiful pictures at our wedding when we went to see the proofs i was blown away ... WOW .. awesome . They captivated our day that we will forever remember as beautiful .. I recommend them and rate them A+++

After shopping around for weeks (literally) for a photographer, my husband and I finally found a business that was beyond “ideal”. We knew what we wanted, which was definitely a video and two photographers for our wedding day. We figured it was going to be the best day of our lives and we wanted pictures and a video to remember it by. (If you’re a girl as cheesy as me, I plan to watch that video every anniversary and take out that photo album every year) After all you do only get married once! Our wedding date was 10-10-10 ? . Happened to be the “coolest” date at the time and a perfect weekend/month to get married, but for everyone else getting married that day it was difficult to find a lot of vendors in general to be available. Our photographer was the last thing we had to book.
I can not tell you how comfortable Mike and Jim at Hi-Lite Studios made us feel when we walked into their Commack studio. They sat us down and basically asked us what we wanted, and worked with us so that they knew what was to be done on our wedding day. Not once did they push us on adding on “extras” like everyone else did. They were kind enough though to tell us what features were available, and what they were capable of doing. They explained to us what certain things meant, if we had questions they answered us, and both of them were just laid back and relaxing. They made our stressful shopping time much easier.
The price they gave us to have a combo of two photographers and a video to be taken was phenomenal! They even gave us complimentary “extras” just because. Not only did I receive a copy of my wedding day video, but both sets of parents as well. All my proofs were given back to me, and they were kind enough to even make a DVD of them, so that we could email them to family and friends. What we liked best about Hi-Lite studios was that they were some what “old fashioned”. Yes they have the technology of other photographers, but they keep the traditions of an older style wedding in tack. My husband and I are not older either; we are in our mid 20’s.
Our wedding day could have not been more complete without Hi-Lite studios being our photographer. They were on time, came earlier then planned originally as requested by the bride, who actually ended up making them wait! Haha sorry guys. They were properly dressed for the occasion, took multiple pictures, and different shots and poses. Not once did I have a complaint from family or friends that they were rude, in the way, or anything.
Looking at our wedding proofs a few months after was absolutely breath-taking. It was so hard to choose just 100 photos for our albums because out of 300 or so pictures each one was fantastic! Not only did they capture things that I was not able to see that day, but my proofs told a story of how well my day went. Our video we were able to take home sooner to enjoy. Watching the ceremony and the reception on DVD for over an hour, with added in clips of us throughout the years of how our relationship unfolded was just so significant. After reviewing the page layouts of my album, I couldn’t wait to receive it! I sat in the studio and was asking for a box of tissues because I was crying over how well my album came out. The amount of time and craftsmanship that they had put into my album was truly able to show its colors.
I can not thank Hi-Lite studios enough for the wonderful memories it has given me for the rest of my life. I would hope that for you future brides out there, this review will at least get you to visit them. I’m telling you, you will not be disappointed. I remember shopping around for all these vendors and all I did was read these reviews online, and find out from family and friends who was good or not. Looked to see if they have worked at the reception hall before hand, and considered is it because the price is so high that they will be better? Mike and Jim just happen to be two really nice guys, who are honest, personable, VERY talented, and who I would consider to be great family friends. Thanks again Hi-Lite studios!

Sincerely, Kristen and Justin
P.S. We made it onto their wall in there studio too! Talk about us being famous now! haha

our wedding was 10/16/10 in oneonta ny upstate....our photographer was Diane and she was amazing! she made me feel so special and beautiful and calmed my crazy nerves that day.........i would definately recomend her to any bride.....she came to my parents house about 15 minutes early and my parents live 4 hours away !!!!!!! her expected arrival time was 11:30 and she was early. she took the time to chat with us and get to know my family as well. mike at hilite has been awesome too from day 1....they respond in a timely manner to my emails and calls! Diane even took wedding pix with my great dane Elvira, knowing that my dog couldnt be at the wedding!
Hilite rocks!

Excellent! Had to book them 30 days before our wedding due to a failure of a photographer we originally had... Mike was great and accomodating!!! Would highly reccomend to everyone!

My wedding was May 21, 2010. I booked with Mike 10 months prior to our wedding. He was awesome. He tailored an affordable package to suit our needs. Total bang for your buck. Mike kept in touch, during the ten months, and met with myself and my husband for our portrait session. That session, was a great opportunity to get to know Mike. He even coached we through my eye blinking dilemma. On my wedding day, he arrive at the venue before I did (and I was running on time). He got pictures of the venue, that I didn't even know about until I saw the video and the proofs. As the bride, you miss so much because people are coming at you from all directions, but Mike didn't miss a thing. Our parent albums are awesome, and our video is amazing. Our jaws dropped when we saw the quality of our video (all four copies for the price of one), a gift from Mike; in addition to framed proofs from our portrait session. Mike and Jim met with us several times, so that we could see the progress of your album. It's beautiful. I whole heartedly reccommend HiLite Studios. Make an appointment, check out what they've got to offer.

Hi Mike!

Mr. Ross really loved the pictures - you did a GREAT JOB with all of the pictures! He was very pleased!
I also mentioned to him that you were available for any of the BINDER Sales Meetings, Shows, and Holiday Parties, which he seemed interested in.
I hope to work with you again in the future!

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!
Best Always,
Adrienne
