About the area

Filming in Howard Beach.

Catering halls, waterfront views and the city’s most varied celebrations.

Howard Beach is a waterfront neighborhood in southwestern Queens on the northern edge of Jamaica Bay, just west of JFK Airport. Cross Bay Boulevard, its main road, splits it into older and newer sections, and the side streets are lined with Cape Cod and raised-ranch houses, many backing onto canals and boat docks. It has a strong Italian-American community, and it was developed in 1897 by glove manufacturer William J. Howard.

Whether your celebration is at Russo's On The Bay or a backyard tent down the street, we follow you, and only you, from the moment we arrive until the last song plays. We post stories in real time and deliver every raw clip within 24 hours.

Planning notes

A Howard Beach event, start to finish.

City backdrops, rooftop light and venues where every minute counts.

Shooting handheld on iPhone keeps us nimble in Howard Beach, where venues have tight load-in windows, elevators are small and portraits often happen on the sidewalk between taxis. If a location needs a permit or a venue has vendor rules, we flag it during planning. A modest travel fee applies for NYC venues, and it's built into your custom proposal.
