Noah Magnifico – Photographer

Noah Magnifico is a wedding photographer in Sarasota, Florida. He has loved photography since he saved for his first camera at age ten, and today he photographs weddings with a natural, candid eye.

Why Noah suits LGBTQ+ couples

This photographer is LGBTQ+-owned. Noah writes that every couple is unique and that he wants to show that through natural images, capturing the smiles, laughs, tears and unplanned moments rather than a fixed formula.

Style and approach

Noah describes loving the excitement, the preparation and the details of a wedding celebration. Many of his past couples have stayed friends after months of planning together, which suggests a collaborative way of working. Expect an attentive photographer who pays as much attention to the in-between moments as to the formal portraits.

What to prepare

• A clear list of the people you want photographed together
• Details you want recorded, such as rings, invitations and attire
• The venue rules on flash and positioning
• A quiet window for portraits of the two of you

Where he works

He is based in Sarasota, on Florida's Gulf Coast. Ask about travel if your wedding sits farther up or down the coast.

Choosing a style that fits

Look at several full galleries and decide whether you prefer candid, posed or a mix. Ask how the photographer handles low light, crowded rooms and tight timelines. Tell them early about any moments you want recorded carefully, such as a private exchange of vows or a parent's toast, and any people you would prefer not to feature. Ask how many images you can expect and how they are edited.
