Hawthorne, NJ
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,850

On most days, you’ll find me at my desk editing galleries while catching up on the best of Bravo shows or any 2000’s rom-com movies with a cup of iced coffee. I’m a huge Buffalo Bills and New York Yankee’s fan, I love trying new brunch spots, and well…I love to talk. If I’m excited or anxious, I’m always rambling on about everything and anything I can.

From the moment we booked Giannav Photography, she was a pleasure to work with. Her communication was always fast and friendly, making the planning process easy and stress-free. On the day of our wedding, Gianna was amazing - she captured every moment beautifully and helped make the whole day fun and enjoyable. The final wedding album she delivered is truly stunning, showcasing her incredible talent as a photographer. Highly recommend Giannav Photography to any couple looking for an amazing wedding photographer!

I am truly honored to capture your special day and celebrate with you the beginning of this new chapter in your lives. I love capturing my couples connection and the genuine connections with their family and friends. I love hearing about your story - from dating to proposal and everything in-between!

Wow. This woman is not only a great photographer but an all-around great person. Just my upfront vibes from her made me feel so comfortable during our engagement shoot. She gave us a suggestion of a location and she really helped us out when it came to different poses that would work and different photo ops. I was so excited when I got the engagement photos back and when she arrived at my wedding venue the day of the wedding I knew that I could trust her to capture our wedding beautifully. I got some sneak peaks and I am in love. I cannot wait to get the rest of the photos. I would hands-down recommend her as a photographer to anyone! I found her on this app and it was one of the best decisions I’ve made for my wedding.

Jonathan went above and beyond capturing our beautiful day! As a vendor - chatted with us ahead of the big day to confirm the day of timeline and answer any questions we had, he arrived early, immediately communicated and connected with my planner and photographer, suggested fun and creative poses and prompts, and was working tirelessly to get the most footage of the day. He delivered our videos in a quicker-than-expected timeframe! We had the blues following our wedding day and having videos to watch only a few weeks after was such a pleasant surprise for us and our close ones. He was always quick to respond and accommodating - even when we had a suggestion for an edit on our highlight reel while we were away on our honeymoon. I highly highly recommend booking Jonathan if you want someone who will capture the true essence of your special day because they care so much about their work and making their clients happy.

We're a husband/wife photography duo. We're college sweethearts and we're currently expecting our first child in June 2021! We are so happy to be in this business but we didn’t always know we’d become wedding photographers. Seth spent about 10 years in video production (aka the equipment expert) and Nicole is an advertising art director (aka the artsy perfectionist).

Seth was phenomenal on our wedding day! He gave us fantastic direction as a couple, ensuring every authentic laugh and moment was captured. He is a true artist who constantly looks for unique, creative elements in his shots, which completely kept our photos from feeling stiff or staged. The previews that hit the mark are absolutely breathtaking and completely authentic. Seth was also incredibly patient and professional when it came to directing our family and friends. We couldn't have asked for a better experience!

Louis Pettinelli Entertainment was an absolute dream to work with. I thought that a live band for our wedding would be out of our reach, but LPE was so easy to work with and what an incredible value! Our band, LPE Snapshot was incredible and our ceremony musicians were amazing too! The vocalists were high energy and kept the whole event moving. They were great Emcess and they even added some special non-traditional reception activities for us. They were super flexible and played all the songs we asked for- even some very “niche” tracks we asked for during the ceremony. So many of my guests said the band was their favorite part of the reception. I highly recommend LPE entertainment! (I am also a musician myself so I’m very picky!)

We couldn’t have been more thrilled with the music for our reception and cocktail hour! We went with The Gramercy, a DJ/band combo, and they were absolutely amazing. From start to finish, they kept the energy up and made sure the music was exactly what we wanted. They were incredibly interactive with our guests, which really added to the fun. It wasn’t just background music—it was a key part of the celebration, and everyone felt engaged. They played every song we requested perfectly and seamlessly filled in with other tracks that hit the mood exactly right. The vibe was always on point, and we had guests commenting that it was the best wedding music they had ever experienced. Beyond their talent, they were also so easy to work with. The whole process was super streamlined, from submitting song requests and details through their app to coordinating with the venue. They were professional, responsive, and just an absolute joy to work with. One highlight was when they played "Shipping up to Boston" and all of the Boston College alumni went crazy on the dance floor!

I can’t say enough good things about Eli and LSC Planning. Planning a wedding can be overwhelming, but she held it all together for me from start to finish. She has an incredible attention to detail - months before the wedding she casually asked me my boba order, and then surprised me with that exact drink right after we walked down the aisle. It’s little things like that, combined with her calm presence and flawless coordination, that made the day so special. On the big day, I didn’t have to worry about a single thing - she made sure everything ran smoothly so I could actually enjoy my wedding. I’m beyond grateful for her professionalism, patience, and genuine care. If you’re looking for someone who goes above and beyond, Eli is the one!

I selected this DJ because I was on a budget. Other DJs were high ranking in reviews and expensive. I honestly didn't expect my experience to be so good for the price but they had my whole family jumping all night. Hit throwbacks, sound and energy was on point, easy to talk to, great communication. I would definitely recommend and would use their services here forward.
