With studios in both New York and Southern California, Ira Lippke shoots extraordinary events in international locations as diverse... a Tuscan castle, a Balinese beachfront, a Canadian mountain lodge, and many of the finest resorts around the world. He is the recipient of one of the Photographer of the Year award from the Wedding Photojournalist Association, First Place in Brides Magazine international Photo Competition and Peter Jennings’ “Person of the Week”, and is featured regularly in such prestigious venues as Elegant Bride, Inside Weddings, The Knot and Wedding Style.
Ira Lippke was born to bohemian parents who raised him and his four younger siblings in a converted school bus in Colorado and Washington State. With forests, orchards and mountains serving as his schoolhouse, Lippke developed an acute visual sensibility that found its perfect outlet in photography, which he immersed himself from the age of 14. Capturing nature’s own grid of tree and horizon, mountain and sky, Lippke took to the seemingly alchemical process of photography and taught himself its complexities through borrowed books and the example of such masters as Henri Cartier-Bresson, Robert Doisneau, Anton Corbijn, and Edward Weston.
Without the intrusion of mainstream culture’s image-saturated mediascape, Lippke was able to develop an ability to frame the everyday in an unusual and distinctly personal way. His early photographic acumen was matched only by his deep appreciation for narrative, instilled at an early age by a passion for reading and his family’s intimate tradition of mealtime storytelling. Living near Seattle in the early-1990s, Lippke was exposed to the hothouse atmosphere of the music and art scene and further honed his talent shooting bands.
Upon relocating to Los Angeles in 1993 to study the Humanities at Biola University, Lippke opened up his own commercial studio in nearby Long Beach, where he began shooting the weddings of musicians, designers, and others who desired a fresh perspective to document their lives. While continuing to evolve his own fine art and international documentary work, over the next 15 years Lippke has become one of the country’s most celebrated wedding photographers, known for his ability to capture the distinct style and emotional ambiance of every event with sophistication and professionalism.
Lippke is an avid collector of contemporary fine-art photography and spends his free time surfing, riding his motorcycle, following independent film and music, reading and engaging family and friends in lively conversation.

Kind regards,
Denise Cregier, NEW YORK CITY
AGATON STROM, NYC
Almost all my business is from the WPJA. I would say 85-90 percent. I much rather have clients find me through WPJA than other resources. Clients that find me on WPJA are educated brides and they are looking for my style. I have to spend less time educating the clients of my journalistiv position at the first meeting.
If you choose one of our WPJA New York City wedding photojournalists
as your wedding photographer, please let them know you found
them through the Wedding Photojournalist Association.
The WPJA at a glance: The Wedding Photojournalist Association
puts the best New York City wedding photographers at your fingertips,
by granting membership only to the most talented professional
wedding photographers in the world--photographers who focus solely
on using their documentary photography skills to capture the
moments of your wedding day.
Known as the city that never sleeps, New York City stands as a forerunner of culture and boasts tremendous locations for memorable wedding ceremonies and pictures. The city skyline sits as a truly unique backdrop that presents couples with a New York City style wedding that cannot be matched. Made up of five Burroughs, the city provides a vast cultural smorgasbord for weddings, setting the stage for stunning celebrations which will be captured by your wedding photographer. Manhattan is the location of New York’s downtown and is home to internationally flavored locations and possible sites for your wedding. It also provides outstanding scenes for urban-style wedding photography moments. With fine restaurants, beautiful hotels, classic historical churches and a buzzing climate of excitement, the possibilities are endless. Activities for the wedding party, guests and family are endless in Manhattan, including Broadway shows, the Empire State Building, the World Trade Center Memorial, the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island and seemingly infinite other options. Your wedding photojournalist will be pleased to offer endless creative options, like Central Park, that will leave you with the most spectacular photos of your wedding day.
Yet Manhattan is only the beginning of New York City’s landscape. Brooklyn is located on the westernmost point of Long Island and is the region that offers Coney Island with its famous amusement and unique flavor for weddings that cannot be offered anywhere else. As a cultural melting pot, Queens is a “United Nations” of cultures. Home to Astoria, you will find the location of the historical World’s Fair, the Queens Museum of Art and strong Greek tradition that will make for wedding celebrations to remember. Home to the Bronx Zoo, the Apollo Theatre and the New York Yankees, the Bronx provides a cultural experience for exciting wedding moments captured by your wedding photojournalist. Staten Island is a short ferry ride away from Manhattan, offering city life as well as miles of beaches to make your wedding celebration extraordinary. All this will be captured with memorable wedding photos that will provide lasting memories.
Some of the best New York City fine art wedding photographers are now just a click away through the Artistic Guild of the WPJA! The AG takes the world-renowned artistic approach of WPJA wedding photojournalists to yet another level through post-production processing (usually Photoshop). AGWPJA photographers define New York City artistic wedding photography!
