Awarded Best of Zola
“We had such a great experience with Enchanted Celebrations for our wedding! From the beginning, Summer was wonderful to work with. She was very responsive, helpful, and always quick to answer our questions throughout the planning process. Our photographer, Ash, was amazing. He was extremely professional, attentive, and so easy to work with. You can really see how devoted and passionate he is about his work and how much he cares about getting the perfect shots. He had great ideas throughout the day and made us feel completely taken care of. Even some of our friends noticed how great he was and commented on it afterward. Our videographer, Randolph, was also amazing. His enthusiasm and positive energy made us feel so comfortable and confident in front of the camera. He was very attentive throughout the day, and we could tell he genuinely cared about capturing all the important moments. The only thing I would recommend to future couples is that if you choose a specific photographer from their portfolio, ask Enchanted Celebrations to confirm that person’s availability before making your payment. We selected a photographer when we booked about eight months before our wedding, but around two weeks after booking, we were told that photographer wasn’t available. Their contract does state that if your selected photographer isn’t available, they can assign another photographer from those available, but I would have appreciated having the availability confirmed before we booked and paid. That being said, we ended up being extremely happy with Ash and Randolph. They were both wonderful to work with and made us feel like we were in great hands on such an important day. We can’t wait to see everything they captured. Thank you to the entire Enchanted Celebrations team! Her are pictures taken from Ash the photographer for the engagement shoot !”

“Paul was fantastic! He was the perfect photographer to have for our wedding, and we’d chose him again in a heartbeat. He was reliable, organized, professional, but most of all, he was very kind! We immediately felt comfortable working with him the moment we started planning together. Wedding day, he was almost also like our wedding coordinator, something we didn’t have. He helped keep us in time, know what the next thing was, and even stay present to each moment. His execution of photographing and the details he captured throughout the day, truly exceeded our expectations. The quality of the photos were stunning, and our family and friends still rave about not only them, but also him as a photographer, over a year later. The photos came out regal yet soft, and we loved how timeless they came out to be. We had him for the morning to take portraits of the bridesmaids then groomsmen, during and after the ceremony, couples portraits right after, and lastly the beginning parts of the reception, which included entrances, speeches, dancing, and the cake-cutting. I grew up with a photographer father, and a Filipino family that lives and breathes pictures, so I definitely had a taste. Paul was the perfect fit for us, and we definitely recommend you chose him for your next event!”

Awarded Best of Zola
“We are absolutely over the moon with our experience working with Lisa Blanche! From the very beginning, Lisa and her husband Pieter made us feel like more than just clients—they made us feel cared for, celebrated, and completely at ease. We are NOT naturals at posing for photos and were nervous going into this process, but they changed our whole POV and made it so fun for us. They’re so warm and fun to be around. They work with you and laugh with you. Their calm energy and kindness on our wedding day made such a difference, and they felt like part of the group with us. We’ve only received our preview photos so far, and they are stunning. Our friends and family can’t stop talking about them—every single shot feels like a piece of art! Lisa emphasizes they capture the moments, not just photos, and that could not be more true. The photos are so real and full of life and emotion—we already know the full album (which we’ll get in a few weeks!) is going to blow us away. Lisa and Pieter are total pros— organized, and skilled beyond words—but it’s their personalities and presence that make them truly unforgettable. We will actually miss them and hope to stay in touch! They even sent us the sweetest little care package when we first booked with them— just the best people ever. We didn’t book videography, but our in-laws did, and Justin (their amazing videographer) created a complimentary engagement video sample for us—and it was so beautiful. He was just as friendly and kind as the rest of the team, and we honestly wish we had added him to our wedding package too. She also brings her polaroid camera along and gets such fun candid photos. If you’re thinking about hiring a photographer for your wedding day — hire Lisa Blanche! You’ll get stunning photos, but more than that, you’ll get to work with some of the most lovely and thoughtful people out there. We’re endlessly grateful to them for capturing our favorite memories so beautifully. We are so happy- Thank you Lisa and Pieter 3”

“We truly cannot say enough incredible things about Shelby! From the very beginning, she went above and beyond anything we could have imagined. From our engagement shoot to our wedding day- she captured all the important moments and little details. Our wedding day was a beautiful snowy winter wonderland, and Shelby handled it like an absolute pro. Not only did she embrace the snowy weather, but she made it feel magical. She captured the most stunning shots in the middle of it all. The way she used the snow made our photos look straight out of a fairytale. Beyond her incredible talent, Shelby was organized, supportive, and genuinely invested in making our day perfect. She helped keep everything running smoothly and made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera. When we received our sneak peeks, we were blown away. We love each and every picture and look at the album literally everyday. We are recommending Shelby to everyone we know. If you’re considering Shelby for your wedding, do it!

Growing up immersed in her art has profoundly shaped my own approach to photography. As a photographer, I'd love to capture the journey of two people in love, telling the genuine and touching story of their life together. I strive to create images that convey heartfelt narratives and reflect the true essence of your relationship and the moments you share.

When the forecast called for rain, she offered to reschedule, which I thought was really nice. Both my fiance and I are usually a little shy behind the camera but Momo made us so comfortable and it was easy to forget she was even there sometimes. Afterwards, my fiance couldn’t stop talking about how much fun he had (“I just got to kiss you for an hour!”). She was also great with our big, goofy dog. The pictures, which she sent in two days, exceeded all our expectations. They are so amazing and special for us to have, and everyone is gushing about them! We couldn’t be happier we went with Momo.”

We are Jenn and Ro, a husband and wife team based out of Central Jersey. An AOL chatroom brought us together in 2003 when we were high school seniors and we got married a few years later. Shortly after our wedding, we fell in love with photography and all things wedding. As a boutique studio, we love to create a relationship with our couples that lasts throughout the entire wedding process and beyond. Our goal is to make sure you are having fun and enjoying every second of your day while we are working behind the scenes to capture every moment.

Awarded Best of Zola
“J&R Photography was the best choice for our wedding photography! From the moment we first spoke with Jenn and Ro about being one of our wedding vendors, we were immediately impressed by their friendly, and personalized communication style. They made it so easy to understand what they offer and what their photography style is (exactly what we were looking for). They truly want to be the best fit for your special day and will make sure you understand everything before booking. After we booked our date, Jenn and Ro sent us the most personalized package (including samples of their work, date night activity cards, the BEST sugar cookies personalized with our wedding date and a Starbucks gift card for wedding planning). It was the KINDEST gesture that made us feel so special and took a little bit of stress off planning! Our engagement shoot was nothing short of perfect; Jenn and Ro made us feel SO comfortable behind the camera and made us so excited for our wedding day. It was incredible getting to know them better in addition to capturing early memories. On our wedding day, they created a warm and laid-back atmosphere, making us feel like we were just having fun rather than being constantly photographed. The quality of their work is stunning - their natural, candid shots captured all the joy and special moments of our day. They sent us digital previews so quickly and even gifted us 5 8x10 prints that we came home from our honeymoon to! My cousin booked Jenn and Ro for her 2020 wedding, and I knew as soon as I saw her gorgeous photos that J&R Photography was the team for us. Five years later, we know we could not have made a better choice. We can't wait to see the rest of our photos and w e couldn't recommend them more highly!”

I help couples stay present instead of performing. For 25 years, I've photographed weddings for people who care more about connection than perfection. Most photographers pose you. I build rapport first and guide gently, because people look their best being themselves. Before your wedding, we meet to discuss what matters. On the day, I protect your time so you focus on your people. I find the light, prompt gently, and capture what actually matters. You get both film and digital. The photos feel true to who you are and how your day felt.

“We could rave for days about our overall experience with Laura and the end product photographs and prints we received. Laura's experience and professionalism were demonstrated pre-wedding with effective communication and outlining of expectations. She provided excellent advice which ultimately made the day of go much smoother. At the wedding and reception, we were impressed by how unimposing Laura was while still being able to capture the moments most significant to us, as well as the ones we didn't even know would be the most important to us until we saw them. When the fire alarms went off unexpectedly, she took it in stride, creating the most of the moment by placing us near the fire trucks and capturing some of the best pictures of the night. We sincerely and strongly recommend Laura for wedding photography and continue to be so grateful!”

When I was a little girl, my favorite part about making the trip to Argentina to visit my grandparents, was rummaging through their old boxes of prints on a rainy day and just imagining life through those photos. I think that's what started my passion for photography. Knowing that a photo can have such an impact on a child, someone who hasn't even met you yet, makes taking them all the more meaningful. I am passionate about making meaningful images for others because I know how important those photos will be in the future.

Awarded Best of Zola
“Carolina is in a league of her own. We initially came across her art while looking on Instagram for photographers for our wedding say. We were instantly drawn to her particular style and documentary approach. We wanted something that felt unique and still accessible and that would capture the story of the day and the emotions of the moment. Her service was exemplary. We began with an engagement shoot which she uses to get a vibe of us and what we're looking for. We ended up using these photos hor our save the date, and later the shots taken on the day for our thank yous. She has a very easy going style and makes you feel comfortable and forget that you're on a photoshoot. Her website and communications are incredibly easy to use and navigate and she's so thoughtful with surprise and delight moments along the whole journey. She was easily our favorite vendor to interact with. She always took the time to listen to any of our thoughts or answer questions. She worked with a second photographer and assistant on the day who were both lovely and attentive. Despite never having been to our venue, and having a jam packed schedule she jumped right in and worked confidently in the space. Again we forgot we were being photographed and just enjoyed the day. Delighted with the outcome. We're excited to continue working with Carolina and bring some optical cohesion to our lives!”

Hey, I’m Daniel. I’m a NY & NJ wedding photographer who incorporates fresh, contemporary techniques to create dramatic portraits for couples on their wedding day. The wedding industry is filled with incredible vendors who want nothing more than for you to have the epic wedding you’ve been dreaming of. But what if you don’t want just the classic and cookie-cutter things that this industry seems to offer? By understanding your needs and tailoring your wedding day coverage to you, I ensure that together we will create an experience that is just as fulfilling as the final image gallery.

“Choosing our wedding photographer was one of our most important vendor decisions. We wanted a photographer who was versatile enough to capture emotional moments and convey our wedding day through a story. We spent hours researching photographers, but when exploring a wedding expo, we had the opportunity to meet Daniel as he was advertising DTJ Photography. Even though it was a hectic day meeting tons of other photographers, we walked away from the expo impressed with Daniel's knowledge and artistic perspective. We were very specific with wanting a photographer to capture photographs in a moody candlelit ambiance, and after seeing Daniel's gallery we were positive he could capture our vision. After booking with DTJ, we were so impressed with his thoughtfulness and communication. Our engagement shoot session was the best way to not only get the perfect photos to share with our loved ones but to also work with Daniel and get any wedding day jitters out of the way. Our engagement photography session was invaluable as he taught us how to pose and helped us gained confidence in front of the camera. On the wedding day, Daniel and his team (Nelson and John) were a calm and commanding presence which made getting through our lengthy photo list effortless, even when we had our large extended family portraits. The entire day went without a hitch as Daniel, Nelson, and John brought an extremely positive energy that kept our spirits high throughout our wedding day. We felt that they were able to holistically, purely, and dynamically capture our wedding day. All of our photos are absolutely breathtaking: the details, our first look, formal portraits, bridal party features, and fun dance floor shots are all so meticulously captured. So many of our friends and family said we look like models or should be on the cover Vogue. We cannot express how ecstatic we are with the photos we will have for the rest of our lives. If you're looking for an authentic and charismatic person who is a versatile photographer that can capture unique moments and convey your wedding day through a story like we were, Daniel is the man!”

Over the past decade, my journey in the medical field as a Radiologic Technologist and CT Technologist has been transformative. Working in trauma has sharpened my ability to think quickly under pressure and has grounded me in the profound truth of how fleeting and precious our moments are. Each day spent in medical imaging, helping diagnose patients during their most vulnerable times, has ignited a passion within me—a desire to capture and celebrate the beauty of life’s happiest moments. This inspiration has led me to create my own photography business, where I strive to encapsulate the love, and fleeting instances that make life meaningful.

“Alexis is the absolute best! She is kind, patient, and so talented! Her work is absolutely incredible, I keep getting compliments and friends are asking for her number left and right! Every step of the process she was so reassuring. Everything went smoothly and she was always a text or phone call away. She made our day that much more special. From our engagement session to our wedding and beyond! Will absolutely be working with her for all future milestones! Thank you Alexis!”

WHO WE ARE... Authentic? Artistic? Creative? Timeless? Nope! These are among the most overused marketing words in the wedding-photography industry. They aren't meant to capture your life. They are meant to capture sales. How do we describe our work? The same way you would describe your relationship: wild, unpredictable, playful, and - above all else - fun! Your biggest day shouldn't follow a tired script. Let us share in your vision and help you tell your story!

“Nick & Kelly Photography were an absolute delight to work with for our wedding day. From the very first call, their communication style was easy, fun, comfortable, understanding, and kind. They truly took the time to get to know us and listen to our vision for the day. On the wedding day, Kelly was there with me in the bridal suite, helping me get ready while also capturing all the special moments. Nick made my husband and his groomsmen feel so at ease, and they both allowed us to be ourselves, which resulted in the most beautiful, detailed, and candid photos. Every guest mentioned how Nick and Kelly were never intrusive, yet they were always there to capture the perfect shots. We are thrilled with the quality of their work and the value they provided. We have since worked with them for additional photo shoots and cannot recommend them highly enough.”
