Let’s work with each other :)

DJ was absolutely amazing! She was able to capture these beautiful moments from start to finish. Both my wife and I aren’t the most smiley but because of DJ working with us and talking it through with us at our engagement session by the time we got to our wedding day it was so effortless. We absolutely love the pictures but we love the ones of our family even more. She absolutely photographed my family which had darker skin tones beautifully which was one of my concerns when looking for a photographer but DJ did amazing and we have these stunning photographs to forever remember the day. She herself is so kind and delightful and is so cool to work with and worked so well with our other vendors too.

Words can't even begin to describe how wonderful Chris is! He was a referral from another friend, and he did not disappoint. From the beginning he was easy to work with, flexible, and had a creative mind. He not only makes the most of the environment he's given, but truly embraces it, which leads to the most stunning photos (and experience!). I'm fairly certain we had all 4 seasons, and every type of weather one could think of in a weekend, and you would have NO idea based off the outcome of the photos. Chris is truly a gem, and I couldn't recommend someone more to do your photos. If you want someone who will work with you, listen to you/also give opinions, party with you, take advantage of any situation, and take the most stunning photos, then Chris is definitely your photographer!

I can’t say it enough that The Rockleigh should be at the top of everyone’s venue list. They were our 2nd of 3rd venues we were touring and we never went to our 3rd venue tour. My words simply can’t portray how magical a wedding at The Rockleigh will feel. As soon as you walk in we were hit with a “wow” feeling. The venue is simply beautiful and left us and all our guests in awe. On top of a classy and beautiful venue, the service the staff provided is truly unforgettable. They will be at your side the entire day making sure you don’t have to lift a finger and ensure that your day goes as exactly as planned (and might I say better than you planned it to go).

Cannot recommend Ben enough! We did our engagement pictures with Ben ahead of our wedding and they were 1000/10. He is a master at finding the perfect lighting and did the perfect mix of the more modern photos we love and the more traditional ones our parents/grandparents love. My husband and I are both terrible at posing but Ben kept us comfortable and laughing our entire wedding day and made our photos look so natural! He is hilarious and brought such positive energy the entire day - everyone in our bridal party couldn’t say enough wonderful things about Ben!

My name is Joel Martinez, I'm a wedding and event photographer based in Sussex County New Jersey. Born in The Bronx, I grew up in Monroe, NY. I spent my early years traversing through the streets of NYC. I now live in New Jersey. I visit the city often. I studied Communication at the University at Buffalo - SUNY, where I discovered my love for photography. I am also a member of NYC Prime Shot. When I’m not taking pictures of people and events, I love to travel the world, play video games, watch movies and anime, play basketball, and take pictures of my dog Mikey!

Joel with Joel's Vivid Snaps was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding photography. His communication throughout the planning process was great - he responded quickly to emails and made sure we were all on the same page regarding shot locations and timing. The day-of, Joel arrived early and worked efficiently to capture countless incredible photos despite our short time frame. The quality of the final images is amazing - he has a real talent for capturing special moments and telling the story of the day. Joel himself was very professional and respectful. We couldn't be happier with how the photos turned out and would highly recommend Joel's Vivid Snaps to any engaged couple looking for a talented, reliable photographer to capture all the special moments on their big day!

As many millennials do, we met on one of those phone dating apps (eh hem.. Tinder..) and had an instant connection! It didn't take long for Korey to make things "official" and asked Diana if she would be his girlfriend. Of course she said 'yes!' and it was a whirlwind after that. We adopted an adorable blue nose pittie, moved in together, and started a business! Now here we are, 6 years later - chasing our dreams and building a career together as a MARRIED COUPLE!! (and we also have another pup!).

What a team! Incredibly accommodating from the start of booking. Supportive through the planning process and extremely helpful with the timeline. I didn’t know where to start and their timeline gave me a strong example of how to plan the rest of the day. Diana and Korey made sure to learn our names and make us feel so comfortable the entire day. I could not brag about this team enough!!!! You must book them.

Honesty in Your Photography: That's not just a promise but a guiding principle. As your photographer my passion lies in capturing the essence of your day - the feelings, the love, and the authentic emotions that happen organically. My approach is centered on embracing the beauty of genuine connections and preserving the unique atmosphere of your wedding day, wherever those moments may happen.

Adam is the best of the best! After scrolling through his photography we knew he would be our perfect choice, but after meeting him, our choice was solidified. Adam is easy going but professional which was portrayed during our first meeting with him. We shared similar styles of wedding photography showcasing the emotions of the day with raw, lighthearted candids vs strict poses with serious faces. We booked an engagement session with Adam, which was a great way for us to get comfortable in front of the camera and get to know Adam more. He allowed us plenty of time to get all the shot locations we wanted and gave us excellent cues to allow for natural poses. We felt at ease with Adam as if it was a best friend taking our photos. Throughout wedding planning, Adam was always there with a quick email response. He is organized, detail oriented and planned a check in with us before the wedding to ensure everything would go smoothly. He truly listened to what we wanted and what our goals were for the wedding day. On the day of our wedding, Adam was the most calm, attentive, and down to earth photographer. My husband and I had the best day of our lives and if you look through our pictures, Adam captured it perfectly. We like to think every part of our day went so smoothly because we had Adam on our side. He seamlessly got through all our family photos and made certain we got all the photos we had planned for. Although, we honestly loved Adam so much because he snapped away during all the moments, planned versus not planned. He has incredible ability to snap photos where you can see emotions and bring you right back to that moment. I cried tears of happiness when we received our sneak peek photos because they were everything and more I could have ever dreamed of. Our family and friends have consistently raved about Adam, not only for his beautiful photos, but the way he conducts himself. Hiring Adam was the best decision we could have ever made and we cannot recommend him enough! If you want to be able relive your wedding through your photos for the rest of your life, Adam is the man yo
