Quinceanera Photography in New York City

You get one quinceañera. We photograph the dress, the tiara, the court of honor, and your face when you walk in.

Why Dante's Models for Your Quinceañera

We have been photographing quinceañeras across NYC for over 7 years, so we know how the day runs. Our team speaks English and Spanish. Your family can talk to us in whichever they like, and we will get you relaxed in front of the camera.

Quinceañera Photo Tips

  • Book 3 to 6 months ahead, more so for spring and summer dates.
  • Shoot at golden hour, 1 to 2 hours before sunset. That is when the light is best.
  • Wear comfortable shoes between locations and change into heels for the photos.
  • Think about a short session before the big day so the camera feels normal by then.
