Bright Set was so accommodating. I was planning my reception from the West Coast, so it was a little tricky to get every detail I wanted from the vendors. But Bright Set was there to answer any questions I had and allowed me to create my perfect playlist. They made the party so much fun and provided so many opportunities for us to let loose and have a great time. My family and friends loved the photobooth and the pictures show it. Thank you.

Awarded Best of Zola
I can’t count the number of times during and after our wedding I said, “hiring Christina is the best money we spent on the wedding!” I am not a planner by nature and I was dreading wedding planning. The second we hired Christina, I felt like a huge weight had been lifted. She took care of all the tiny details, gave me ideas I never would have thought of, and brought our vision to life. She was so supportive throughout the whole process, answering texts and emails about absolutely everything. On the actual wedding day, I often thought that I didn’t know what we would have done without her. While our venue had a coordinator, they were not nearly as responsive and organized as Christina was. Christina will not only plan your wedding but she will be your friend throughout the whole wedding planning process. I can’t recommend her enough.

I'm in love with human emotions, either it's laughing till it hurts or tears of happiness. When your man hugs you so strong, that you can't breathe or when your dad is crying (for the first time in his life!) listening to your vows at the altar. I do believe, that these un-staged moments are more meaningful than classy portraits on a sunset (but no worries, you'll plenty of both!) If you feel like we are on the same page - let's talk! Write me a few words about who you are, tell me your story and let's create something beautiful together!

We were nervous about finding the right person to be there during such an intimate moment and to trust to deliver quality photos. The moment we found her, all of our worries washed away. Dasha was SO professional, knew exactly what to do and made us feel at ease. She went above and beyond to make sure we got all of the shots we wanted and was so patient. She knows of ALL the best places to get amazing photos. She's an expert. Her work is beautiful - do NOT sleep on the opportunity to work with her! So happy with our experience and can't wait to work with Dasha again!

Fen was so amazing to work with, two important things we wanted from our videographer were to have RAW footage included in our price and on our wedding day to basically not even know they were there. Fen did both of those, she was extremely reasonable with pricing and so easy going leading up to the wedding day and throughout it. Fen easily blends into the background unlike most videographers that you can find yourself bumping into on the dance floor.

I’ve always been passionate about capturing moments as authentically and magically as possible, and as i’ve settled more into this career path, I love that i’ve landed in a place where I have the privilege to capture and preserve people’s love stories. Weddings and elopements are so distinctly and uniquely human, and it’s truly the biggest honor to be trusted to document them.

I love the vintage-inspired look of the photos and video. She communicated when she said she would and I always received a quick response to any questions or messages I had. On the wedding day, I couldn’t imagine anyone who would make it as special as Mae did. She was more than a photographer- she helped me put on myself shoes, hyped up all the little details I stressed months over, and was just such a joy. I cannot recommend Mae enough.

Hey there, I'm Jordany Almonte, but you can call me "Jordan" – a friendly guy based in the state of New Jersey with a passion for life and a big heart for family. I take immense pride in being a devoted husband and a proud father; they are the driving force behind everything I do. To me, photography is more than just capturing images; it's a way of feeling, touching, and loving the world around me. What I capture in the film holds the essence of the moment, preserving memories that we can cherish forever. Those little things, often overlooked, can bring floods of emotions long after our other memories have faded.

If you're in the NJ/NY area, Jordan is fantastic to work with on your special day. No detail is overlooked, and he's great at capturing the most special moments. His professionalism is unmatched, the quality of the photos and editing is phenomenal, and he's very down to earth - helping bride, groom, wedding party, and family feel comfortable in front of the camera lens. He's open to your needs and what shots you would prefer on your big day - even thinking of ones you didn't know you wanted. If you're the type of couple like us who didn't want to spend the entire day in front of the camera but with family and friends, Jordan is great at capturing candid moments as well. We received a few sneak peeks of his work within a few days post-wedding, and we can't get enough! Very grateful to have him on our team.

Connection is everything, and my passion is to capture human connection in a unique and artistic way. I have one goal behind my craft, to deliver a collection of photos that hold cherished moments, feelings, and the ambience of that special day. I look at my work as a tool that enables my clients to re-live their proposal, engagement or wedding at any point in their lives.

Our wedding photos from Danny exceeded all of our expectations. Danny was able to achieve all photos from our photo list and more! His service the day of the wedding was excellent and well organized. Danny stayed throughout the entire wedding, capturing all moments of the wedding. The editing was all done within a month after our wedding!

I looked at SO MANY wedding videos and they were all so similar and cookie cutter. They were lacking something but I couldn’t put my finger on it. THEN I FOUND JIMMY SHIN. I watched his videos and found myself sobbing at strangers videos! He made me feel like I knew the bride and groom after just 7 minutes. He's so good! Jimmy will take your wedding video and turn it into the most beautiful story. The video he made for us just so beautifully captured my husband and I's day! It's a video i'll cherish for the rest of my life. I can't wait for our kids to be able to watch it. UGH, seriously hire this man and you won't regret it. Best wedding money we spent. https://www.youtube.com/watch?viVAKZzODr6E
