  • Videographer
  • Documentary style

Films are my life. Everything I do is seen through the lens of a camera. It's my life and love, and I strive to create the most cinematic films I can. I have been working full-time in the event industry since I graduated from film school in 2000, and I have captured well over a 1000 events. My job as a cinematographer is to create a cinematic film of your day that is both natural and magical. When I'm working, I prefer to be as discrete as possible, therefore I don't like to do too much staging of shots. I like the more natural films and that is what I strive for with every job I take on.

Love stories demand exceptional images. We deliver. Wedding photography requires an interesting set of skills. You need the eye of an artist, reflexes of a sports shooter, and the people skills of a therapist. You need to disappear at times, ninja-like, and reappear larger than life to marshal the attention of 50 alcohol-fueled people for a big family portrait! You need stamina, incredible organizational skills, and the best camera gear money can buy. Most importantly, you need to have a big love for what you do. We are those guys! Let us exceed your expectations!! Love, Tom

Thanks to Jersey Photography I was able to get all of the breathtaking pictures without being constantly pulled to take pictures. My husband and I were able to flawless pictures while still being able to Dance and enjoy our time. Tom was actually early to our wedding, very responsive throughout, and gave us 100 images to preview 24 hours after our wedding. I can't recommend jersey photography enough ! In fact, when my husband's brother (my brother in law) got married he also booked jersey photography! You definitely wouldn't regret working with jersey photography. And just for reference my wedding was 7.3.2022.

From the moment we connected, it was clear that he is exceptional at what he does, and his passion for his craft shines through in every interaction. Let's talk about communication.

During the ceremony, I could sense Jason capturing every significant moment, even when he wasn't directly in front of us. His agility and dedication were apparent as he moved swiftly and discreetly to capture shots from various angles. Seeing him dash around to get so many incredible shots in such a short time was truly remarkable!

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).

I cannot say enough great things about working with Seth and his team! From our first meeting, to all communications, to our wedding day, everyone was committed to bringing our vision to life. Seth was thoughtful and paid attention to every detail. I especially loved the shot list document he shared - no way anything would be missed. Day of, Drea and Brandon were on top of everyday plus so much fun to work with. We got the shots we wanted without spending our entire wedding taking pictures. The Hyde team was the best and our photos show just how incredible they are. Thank you!

Where to even begin? We had seen Nicks work through a friend on IG and loved what we saw! We first met Nick during our engagement photoshoot. Nick made us both feel so comfortable and was so easy to work with. He quickly got our vibe and how we interacted with each other- and played into with his photos. We didn’t feel like we had to give him ideas- he knew exactly what to do and how to pose us. Then for the wedding, Nick and his team are PHENOMENAL. They are the most fun team to have with you on your wedding day. My husband does not like taking photo- Nick and his team “did not make the photos feel like a chore or a hassle” instead, my husband had so much fun with nick and his team.

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! See the pics below, from our amazing photographer Carolina Rivera (who we also recommend!) We had the best time, and the music made the night unforgettable. We can’t thank The Gramercy enough for helping us create such an incredible celebration!

If I could give Eli a million stars, I would without hesitation. Hiring her was hands down the BEST investment we made for our wedding. She is absolutely iconic in every sense of the word. From day one, Eli brought a level of organization and expertise that made the entire process feel effortless. She anticipated needs before we even knew we had them, handled every detail seamlessly, and somehow made us feel completely at ease the entire time. Her communication was clear, her execution was flawless, and her presence was exactly what you want on such an important day, steady, supportive, and genuinely invested in making everything perfect. On the wedding day itself, I truly don’t know what we would have done without her and her team.

My wife and I are very organized, type A people both with strong visions especially with our wedding. And yet, Eli surpassed any of our capabilities going above and beyond to bring our dream wedding to life. From the start, Eli combined organization, inspiration, and genuine excitement/joy into a solid feasible plan. Everyone involved in the wedding had a clear roadmap leading up to and on the wedding day. Whenever we ran into obstacles, as life tends to bring, Eli was quick to pivot and find solutions that would be even better than our original ideas. Often, she had multiple solutions for every single scenario we threw at her. In short, I would trust Eli with every single second since the day I proposed. If you’re looking for someone who can see your vision through, organize and execute effectively, and bring genuine joy to you and your future spouse’s lives, you need not look any further than LSC. I’m not really sure why you’re still reading this and not contacting Eli this very second. Our wedding day was, without exaggeration, PERFECT. And LSC made that happen. —The Groom

Ernest & Marlowe's infectious energy and attention to what people want to create such a fun atmosphere. Our wedding was nothing less than incredible, thanks to them!

Our wedding could not have been any better, thanks to Liberty House and their wonderful staff. Aurora was our contact at Liberty House, and she had everything down to a science. I never had to stress about anything. She answered all of our questions quickly and never made me feel dumb for asking the simplest of questions. I truly appreciated her guidance. The food at Liberty House was divine. Truly, their chefs are a league above others. The options we had for food selections were incredible, and we're so happy with everything we picked. Our guests still talk about the mozzarella station! On the day of the wedding, the staff was, in short, flawless. Once we arrived, they were attentive and got us and our wedding party anything we needed. When sending over our decor, I had given them a rough idea of how we wanted things to look. But I never imagined that they'd set up everything so beautifully! They took my one-sentence description and turned it into a masterpiece. Throughout the night, the staff was always there to help. From walking in my dress to getting me hot water when I was freezing, they were always ready to help. When my drink was low, they got me a new one. When I started to leave without my shoes on, they grabbed me some flip flops. When we decided last-minute that we wanted to have a rehearsal dinner at the Madison Rose, they made the process seamless. My wedding wasn't stressful. I felt like a guest at my wedding thanks to their staff. The grounds are gorgeous, the food is to die for, and the staff is exceptional!

My husband and I got married at Crossed Keys this November 2024. We are so grateful to their entire team for all of their hard work to make our wedding day everything we had hoped for. They were organized, responsive, and accommodating from the very day we booked them as our venue until our wedding was over. The venue is stunning, CKE designs brings your floral/decor visions to life, and our guests loved the food! I would highly recommend CKE to future couples getting married!!
