“We’re so glad we chose Jason. We can’t believe how beautiful our photos are. We’re both pretty awkward people and we always look silly in photos. He was so fun and encouraging. He captured every moment beautifully. We’ve never looked so graceful in our lives. We had our wedding at a campground and he arrived early and worked with us to get pictures of our friends and families in that casual setting in our casual clothes. In these pictures and in the photos of our wedding, he made beautiful use of the scenery. He got to know us as a couple and really understood our vision. He gave detailed directions but the photos still look organic and spontaneous. He was also so kind and accessible through the whole process. We didn’t have a planner and he helped us figure out our wedding itinerary even though that was definitely not his job. He has a ton of wedding experience and it shows.”

“We had such an amazing experience with Dean Michaels for our wedding photography! The whole staff was so friendly and helpful both pre and post wedding. We’re not picture people at all and our photographer, Laura, made us feel so comfortable and gave such great direction. She immediately picked up on our personalities and the vibe we were looking for in the photos and captured everything perfectly. She didn’t miss a moment. We absolutely love all the photos and they were delivered quickly and were so easy to access and browse. Thank you!! -Jeanette & Joe”

“Jen and Steve truly captured the magic and whimsy of our wedding day beyond my wildest dreams!! I had been following them on social media long before I was even engaged, and they were the first vendor I booked after securing my venue at Waterloo Village in Stanhope, NJ. It was a bonus that Jen and Steve had photographed many weddings at Waterloo, and I trusted that they knew all the best spots for photos, and they did NOT disappoint. Even though we had met for the first time on our wedding day, my husband and I felt like we had known them forever. We felt so comfortable with them, and under their guidance and direction, we were able to take the most stunning photos. They were SO MUCH FUN to work with, and so professional and talented. We have already received our sneak peeks, and we are so blown away by the beauty they captured throughout the entire day. I cannot express enough gratitude for their services, and I CANNOT WAITTTTT for the full album!!!!!”

“We cannot say enough great things about Nicholas Yee and his incredible team! Literally from the very beginning, he demonstrated unparalleled professionalism - answering all of our emails super quickly, and taking the time to ensure every detail was covered. He worked with us to create a personalized timeline that made our day run SEAMLESSLY. Most of our vendors worked off his timeline. This allowed us to focus on the joy of the moment without worrying about logistics. He’s also just a great person overall - we felt like we were talking to an old friend. :) What truly sets Nicholas Yee apart is his eye for capturing not only the big, emotional moments but also the quiet, loving exchanges and the spontaneous moments of levity that made our wedding day uniquely ours. We were blown away by the pictures and the moments he captured. We can only really describe the pictures as breathtakingly “cinematic.” 10/10!!! On top of his artistry, his organizational skills were impeccable. He efficiently coordinated all of the family and wedding party photos with incredible time management, ensuring everything was done quickly and beautifully. He budgeted extra time in the timeline for delays which was most appreciated! This allowed us to maximize time with our guests and enjoy the celebration while still getting every shot we had hoped for—and then some! If you are looking for a photographer who is professional, organized, funny, and, above all, an artist who can tell the story of your day with authenticity and heart, then book Nicholas Yee and his team. Seriously!!! Thank you for making our wedding memories so perfect, Nick :)”

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).

“We can’t say enough good things about Seth! From the moment we booked him, he made the entire process feel so easy and stress-free. He was always available to answer our questions and made us feel so comfortable leading up to our wedding day. On the day of, Seth and Sarah were calm, fun, and somehow managed to be everywhere at once without ever feeling intrusive. He captured all of the big moments and so many little ones that we’ll cherish forever. The moment we went through even just our sneak peaks, we were already blown away. The photos are absolutely stunning and brought us right back to our wedding day! Hiring Seth was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding, and we couldn’t recommend him more!!”

“I have nothing but good things to say about Geoff and his colleague, Alan. Geoff from the very beginning was so responsive and accommodating. As someone planning a week worth of wedding events on their own, it was a daunting task. Geoff only served to alleviate some of that stress. Geoff captured photos for our engagment, my mehndi and haldi, as well as our Vivah Sanskar, and Christian ceremony and reception during fourth of July 2025 weekend. Each shot is so beautiful and I believe captures our love and our families so well. This will definitely not be the last time we choose to work with Geoff.”

I'm Angelica, the owner of Dawnpoint Studios! I'm an adventurous and internationally requested wedding/elopement photographer with a focus on sustainability! Here's an unexpected fact - I hated weddings when I first started second shooting them. It broke my heart to see couples being rushed, overwhelmed, and not truly having any connection to couples. That's what drove my passion to breath a fresh air into the wedding experience! Plan with intention, focus on being present, and building genuine relationships with couples! You should be heard, appreciated, and understood. You should feel encouraged to get married your way.

Awarded Best of Zola
“I don't even know where to START!!!! This gal immediately became part of the crew from the first photos with the bridesmaids to the end of the night rager! Angelica and her second shooter were both incredible start to finish. Great at going with the flow but also making sure to get those photos that I had on my shot list (no matter how hard everyone was making that haha!) She had the best energy that helped me not feel nervous at all and honestly empowered from the start. She got so many amazing details that we are literally having a viewing party with all of our local guests because we just cannot choose which photos to post. I chose her because her photos and galleries all looked so different but one common theme was everyone looked like they were 1. having fun and 2. being themselves. Personally posed photos aren't for me. So when I saw her galleries I knew I wanted her above all other photographers. And I had a chart of 21 that I researched but after my first meeting with her I was sold. I chose three photos for this review- one of her capturing the insanity of our hair at the reception, Angelica being a part of the crew (my dad mentioned 3 times how great she was and how much he loved her and the second shooter) and the one where she truly shows her style of capturing natural excitement in the people and world around her.”

Awarded Best of Zola
“When we started planning our May 2026 wedding, we were not particularly excited about the photography aspect of the day. Posing for hundreds of tacky staged shots seemed an inevitable hurdle (especially as a very camera-awkward couple)...until we saw Christopher's portfolio. We reached out immediately when we saw what our wedding photos COULD be. While, naturally, plenty of formal shots were taken, they were quick and painless. What truly stood out was his ability to catch the right shot at the right time, capturing not only beautiful, thoughtful compositions, but also the true feel of the day, from morning prep to last dance. Upon receipt of the photos, we laughed...we cried...we "awww"d... Viewing them felt like reading a narrative, allowing us to relive our favorite day. Aside from his unparalleled expertise with a camera and editing, Christopher is also just a really, really cool guy. He answered our multitude of silly, repetitive questions, but more than that, we truly loved being able to chat and get to know him. His cool, calm presence chilled out the hectic morning of getting ready, and he was organized and professional throughout the planning process. His assistant, Kyle, was also absolutely wonderful! Go Kayfield or go home!!!”

Hello! I'm Florencia, a wedding photographer based in NY/NJ and I'm looking forward to meeting you! I'm fluent in English and Spanish and I found myself working with multicultural couples a lot. That's one of the many amazing parts of my work. I've been capturing love stories for more than seven years and I LOVE to do this for a living.

Awarded Best of Zola
“We absolutely loved our experience with Flo as our photographer and hiring her was the best decision that we made about our wedding day. We interviewed a few photographers but had an instant connection with Flo who seemed so enthusiastic and genuinely excited for our love story and wedding. She had such positive energy and we knew we wanted that kind of energy surrounding us on our wedding day. She was also willing to customize a package for us to work with our budget and our needs for the wedding day which was so reassuring - and she is worth every penny of what she charges. We had an awesome engagement session with her before the big day, and even when I broke a nail on the way there, she was so great at keeping me from stressing out. We were able to relax and laugh a lot and be ourselves on camera, and the photos were stunning. We also appreciated how Flo kept in touch with us on Instagram leading up to the wedding and afterwards - it must be so much work to keep up with all of her clients but it really felt so nice that she was following us on our wedding journey. She was so supportive, liking our stories and posts and letting us know she was consistently invested in our story. When the wedding day came it was like we were meeting up with an old friend even though we'd only met in person once for the engagement session. Flo also worked with us to figure out the "wedding timeline" that every vendor seemed to want even though we were a little clueless about it to start. She came up with a plan for the most efficient use of our time to make the day go the smoothest and it really worked out perfectly. She kept us on schedule and used the questionnaire we had filled out to make sure she got all of the shots we requested. All of our wedding party and family told us how great she was and how much they liked working with her. She and her second photographer and assistant were ON IT and captured so many moments throughout the day, they didn't miss a thing! We were able to put complete trust in her and just enjoy the wedding. As for the photos themselves, her style is so beautiful and striking and exactly what we were looking for - we love how saturated her colors are and it worked perfectly for our jewel tone fall wedding. She has a passion for sunset lighting as well and the pictures from our engagement and wedding day at sunset came out so beautifully. For both engagement and our wedding, we had a bunch of sneak peek photos within a day or two which was great to tide us over while we waited for the final products. Communication and payment and the photo gallery platform were all super straightforward. We cannot recommend Flo enough for the genuinely positive energy she will bring to your planning process and wedding day and for the gorgeous photos she will capture on your special day.”

Awarded Best of Zola
“From initial meeting to getting our highlights in under a week, working with Bryan was a dream. Right off the bat, he understood we weren't very touchy/PDA couple and were definitely not used to having a camera in our face. We had Bryan join for our rehearsal dinner to get some family photos and give us a chance to get comfortable, and right away he did just that. Taking photos didn't feel like taking photos with Bryan. It was a private moment we had away from the chaos of a wedding day. On our wedding day, Bryan and Kyle arrived on-time and ready to go for our first looks. Bryan has an amazing eye for finding the perfect shots, whether that was avoiding some rain puddles on the ground, or less-than photo worthy NYC city streets, he truly made us the focus of every shot. Throughout the night not only were they capturing all the sweet sentimental moments of our first hours as a married couple, but Kyle was on the dance floor getting shots of everyone which I know we will cherish forever. All our guests enjoyed taking photos with Byran and Kyle and emphasized their enthusiasm and good vibes all day long! Even non-wedding guests have been complimenting our photos, and admiring the true beauty of our celebration.”

“This review is a mix of both happy and a little disheartened. Our Photographer had such an amazing personality. He kept us on our toes. He kept us laughing, leading up to the big moment however, looking back on photos that were being taken in the bridal suite I feel like there’s a lot of mess in the background of them which I don’t blame the Photographer at all that is our fault and those photos did come out beautiful. Our reception photos came out beautiful, but what leaves us this heart in a little bit is our bridal party photos and alter photos. We were hoping to have close pictures of the altar and we didn’t. They’re just kind of dark looking. Which again I understand lighting in a venue I was just hoping for more of an edit, but the biggest one are the Bridal party photos. A lot of our girls look white washed, as if there was little no editing done to it. There was trash or mess in the background that as a photographer I would hope it would’ve been picked up on so we could’ve moved stuff out of the way. I received one photo back with our entire bridal party, which I was excited for to find out half of their faces are blurry and some people were cut out so I can’t share that photo. The rest of the pictures have shadows in them exit signs that could’ve been cropped out not centered properly. I know the day is a lot because there’s things I forgot for example, we never got a full family photo. My husband doesn’t have any with his siblings and parents same with me and my siblings and parents and with our siblings and parents altogether with us on both sides, which should’ve been something I thought of myself, but I know it was talked about prior. I loved our reception photos. I do wish there was a little more of our parents and us but the reception photos came out beautiful and amazing. I’m just a little disheartened with the private bridal party photos. However it’s an easy fix because my maid of honor is a Photographer and my bridal party is gonna. Dress back up and do their hair and make up the way it was that day and we’re gonna redo our photos. Overall though David was amazing to work with the communication was perfect. The payment plan was amazing. I remember one time having to pay him a little late and there was no issue at all. He actually gave me extra time and told me to wait until after the holidays. And I will forever be appreciative for that I would still hire David for other events. Attached are photos we did like and some that we didn’t - the one with our bridal party missing included”

There is nothing I love more than photographing weddings - a day full of raw emotion and I get to document and make art of out it! I'm a newlywed so I totally get what you're going through! We recently adulted hard and bought a house - next up is a dog! Please tag me in all funny dog videos :) I love occasionally working out, always eating cookies, and watching nonstop romantic comedies - especially while I edit (let's not talk about how many times I've seen Dirty Dancing). Can't wait to meet you!

“We spent a lot of time looking for the right wedding photographer and from the moment we found Michelle she was nothing short of wonderful! From the first call, she was attentive and thoughtful, helping us think through all of the different aspects of the wedding and what we would need. She was honest and helpful throughout! She also pays really close attention to the details – like sending us a cute holiday card. Anytime I had a question she would answer SHOCKINGLY fast and made sure we were scheduled for a final call a week out to align on everything. She is a pro who has done this so many times so her advice was invaluable. Day of the wedding she struck the perfect balance between moving things along and making sure we got all the right photos while also blending into the background and capturing beautiful candid shots. She instantly put us at ease with her calm energy and corny jokes! Working with her made the entire day easier. Within ~10 days from the wedding we already had a blog post with AMAZING photos and soon after access to every photo from our wedding.

“Kim at Craven and Co. did far more than take unbelievable photos of our wedding day (though I'll get to that as well). I had no idea that a photographer could do so much to add to the energy of our overall experience. She caught the most touching details that I would have never thought to mention--from getting ready to the final moments walking away from our after party--as well as managed the group photo portion of the day brilliantly. Most importantly, Kim is wonderful at making everyone feel at ease so she can capture the true energy of the wedding. She knows weddings inside and out and knows how to be at the right place at the right time. Logistically, she was quick, easy to contact, and amazing at compiling images that told the full story of the experience. I still have people asking me who our photographer was and we have many of the photos framed in our home. I would recommend Craven and Co. to any couple!”

“I have nothing but positive things to say about my experience with Adam. His exceptional eye for candid moments and laidback demeanor made taking wedding photos my favorite part of my wedding day. Adam and his second photographer, Tanya, were efficient, kind, respectful, and easy to work with, and our photos are simply stunning. I am confident any bride who hires Adam will be equally as thrilled with their experience!”

“David was exactly what we were hoping for in a photographer and I couldn’t have asked for someone better to capture our perfect day. From our first phone call to getting our photos, David has been there for us and going above and beyond to help us and make sure our planning was going okay and just life in general. We were looking for a creative photographer to put their own spin on our photos and get some unique poses and shots and David checked that box over and over again. David uses modern technology to ensure he captures the best of your moments and enhances the environment around you for just an even better product. Above all, we felt like we made a friend due to David’s positive attitude, the laughs we shared, and eagerness to capture YOUR moment. He is obviously a master of his craft and I recommend him to anyone that is looking for creativity in their photos, while also still capturing classy and classic poses. David is an incredible photographer that I simply can’t recommend enough.”

I am a photo-documentary wedding photographer, specializing in capturing all the authentic and unscripted moments of your wedding day. With over 10 years of experience, I've proudly photographed hundreds (and hundreds) of weddings in NJ, NYC and destinations worldwide. Though my photography work has been published in magazines, and I've garnered my fair share of awards over the years, my proudest achievement till this day was when my youngest son finally learned how to ride a two-wheeler. I mean, c'mon: that's pretty awesome, right?

“When we were planning our New York City wedding, we didn't quite know where to start when selecting our photographer. We are both creatives and we wanted someone who had a unique style that didn't feel too 'generic'. We asked around our networks and had Ben recommended to us.. and boy, are we lucky to have found him. Ben and his entire team (including his manager, Abby, and wife, Karis) were an absolute joy to work with- and while we haven't had a chance to see all of the finished pictures quite yet, the sneak peeks he has shown us are absolutely perfect. He even printed a few selects out during dinner and presented them to us as we were sitting at the table - it was the best surprise! Ben is a true artist. He allows the atmosphere and the energy of the room influence where and how he shoots. He finds natural light and discovers all of the hidden nooks and crannies in a space to create true magic. In addition to his artistry, Ben will work with you and tailor (or streamline) his services wherever he can to meet your target budget - which does not always happen with vendors at his level. Very grateful for his flexibility. We are so grateful to have found Ben - we can't recommend him and his incredible team enough!”

“Chynna knows exactly how to do her job & the way she was so patient! We aren’t really big into photos, but she absolutely made us feel so comfortable! I found her on wedding wire, her editing and picture taking skills is what really made us go with her but her personality is a BONUS. She was within our budget and we couldn’t be more thankful!”

Hi! I’m Stan, a professional photographer based in Northern New Jersey. I’ve been photographing weddings around the world for 15 years. I love creating timeless photos with a classic European style. Just be yourselves and enjoy the day - I’ll capture the good stuff and step in when you need a little direction. No pressure, no awkward stuff. Just great photos of a great day.

“I was asked to write a review but I have to say Stan is superbly professional, infinitely patient, and a genius at his craft. Stan has taken countless photos of our wedding and engagement. He was great for advice and recommendations leading up to the event. He handled our families incredibly well. I was worried that with us being late to the ceremony, we wouldn't have as much time to get portraits done, but it was needless to worry with Stan's efficiency. He knew all the great places for us to pose and he helped us feel as ease the entire time. Stan surprised us even further when we then got our photographs back before we even left for our honeymoon! Incredible and great experience!”

Hi, I'm Andrea! A Latina wedding photographer based in NJ/NYC, shooting both film and digital. I've spent 10 years behind a camera and 4 of those dedicated to weddings, and I still get butterflies every time. I'm part of the LGBTQI+ community and my space is safe and welcoming for all marriers, always. When I'm not making photographs, I'm crocheting, developing film in my home lab, traveling back home, or taking care of my chosen family. '•.¸♡ ♡¸.•'

“Andrea made sure to capture every moment on our special day! Including the digital photos, she even gave us special film captured photos! We requested video of the ceremony and consulted with us before hand to create a video to remember.”
