From the very start, John distinguished himself during the photographer hiring process. He graciously took an hour out of his day to answer every question we had, patiently addressing our concerns and making us feel completely at ease. Even before we made our final decision, he took additional calls, going above and beyond to ensure we were confident in our choice. The photos from our engagement shoot are beyond anything we could have imagined—truly better than the Pinterest inspirations we brought to him! Just wow—words can’t describe how truly amazing our pictures are. John’s willingness to walk around Philadelphia with us, taking pictures in multiple locations, made the experience even more special. His insightful suggestions and clear directions ensured that every shot was perfect. His relaxed, easygoing approach made the entire experience not only effortless but incredibly fun, and he has a remarkable ability to make you feel comfortable in front of the camera, allowing your true personalities to shine through.

We’re Thu and Matt, a husband and wife duo based in Philly, passionate about capturing your love story in the most authentic way. With a candid, editorial, and true-to-life photography style, we focus on the moments that matter. Your wedding deserves to be remembered in the most romantic and genuine way, and we’re here to preserve those memories forever.

So ElegantLe Photography was absolutely the best investment for our wedding and would highly recommend them for your photography needs. Thu was amazing with her attention to detail and comfortability directing us, especially for two awkward-in-photos people like myself and my husband. She was great with answering all our questions and truly helping us establish what it was we wanted in pictures for our day. On the day of our wedding, she (along with Matthew) managed everything perfectly considering the photos we wanted and the condensed time frame we had to get everything done. She kept us to our timeline and was organized with making sure we got all the shots that we discussed and then some. We also got our photos back within the estimated time frame that was provided (along with previews shortly after the wedding itself). Along with all that, there were other small details that just made our experience feel personal and special with So ElegantLe Photography.

Tara Beth Photography is a place of inclusion, empathy, intimacy, and care. From the first email, I take care with my clients. Considering them all unique, and with that, their stories being unique. We talk about how you want to be captured, how your love should be captured. We go over insecurities, love stories, and anything else that may come up during our Zoom calls. I don't want to be just someone you hire. I want to be considered someone you trust, and enjoy to have around!

Awarded Best of Zola
My wife and I had the pleasure of working with Tara Beth for our wedding in December 2022. We started following her instagram years prior and fell in love with how she captured every moment, from the guests to the couple. Not only were her photos amazing, but being a part of the LGBTQ community can feel daunting at times when reaching out to vendors, specifically for same-sex weddings. We had a few tough experiences with other vendors in regards to being a same-sex couple, but Tara Beth, as she is a part of the community, made it easy to feel comfortable and accepting. We contacted her and were met with a quick response. From the start, we knew she was the one. Her vibe and passion for love sold us! My wife and I were very nervous to take photos, but Tara Beth reassured us that she would walk us through everything - and she did just that. She talked us through our first look and it was an amazing experience. She also guided our party and family photos, which was super helpful as we were able to get our photos done ahead of schedule! We appreciate everything Tara Beth did for our special day and would recommend her 100 times over!

Ryan Eda’s Photography delivers an experience that is nothing short of exceptional. From the moment the evening began, Ryan and his team were impeccably professional—punctual, composed, and fully aligned with our vision. While the original game plan was executed flawlessly, what truly distinguished Ryan was his ability to pivot effortlessly when we chose to deviate. Every adjustment was handled with grace and precision, resulting in moments that felt organic, elevated, and deeply personal. The team’s patience and attentiveness created an atmosphere of ease, allowing us to remain fully present and enjoy the night. The photographic reveal with Ryan was especially memorable—intimate, thoughtful, and artfully curated. It was an experience in itself, not merely a presentation of images. Ryan’s work is a true investment. His talent, discretion, and attention to detail justify every dollar and then some. When the time comes for my daughters’ weddings, Ryan will be my first and only call. If you are seeking a photographer who offers more than imagery—who delivers an experienceq—Ryan Eda and his team are unparalleled.

Helena Raju Photography 

5.0

Philadelphia, PA
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $5,000

I aim to create an editorial feel throughout all my work, wedding photography included. It is important to me that the photographs are effortless and elegant, as well as fun, current, and luxurious. I transfer my knowledge from the world of fashion photography to create a truly unique sense of timelessness, beauty and presence.

I cannot recommend Helena enough. My husband and I wanted someone who could provide an artistic view of our day, rather than the traditional classic wedding portraits you typically see, and she executed this perfectly. Helena captured an authentic view of our wedding, making sure to photograph details, including candids, and provide portraits that didn't seem "stiff." She was organized and communicative from the start, making sure to set up a meeting to get to know us and understand what our vision was. On the day of the wedding, she showed up on time and ready with a plan to ensure we stuck to our timeline. We told her of a few shots we definitely wanted, including family portraits, but otherwise we trusted her artistic view and let her lead the way, and it did not disappoint. I can't say that my husband and I are comfortable in front of a camera, but her direction was clear and effortless, and it made us feel like we knew what we were doing; after the first half hour, we felt more than comfortable with her. Our wedding was on a Friday, and by Monday, she delivered an amazing amount of previews to share with family and friends. We are so excited to see our full gallery and to relive the day!!

Time and time again I am matched with clients (often turned friends) that inspire me in such a way I feel my work is elevated to new heights. I am constantly reminded of the nuance and beauty of our human experience by your kind invitation to photograph your wedding days and celebrations. I really try to make a point of being perceptive and imaginative so I can let your spirit shine. It’s hard for me to approach this work by a template therefore you won’t really see that from me. My humble wish is to capture history for you and facilitate your presence in your celebration with unbridled joy. It’s a tender thing, this work and my honor.

During the wedding weekend, one of the vendors you will spend the most time with is your photographer, and I’m so grateful our photographer was Sabina. Sabina is so calm, fun and game for anything. She interacted with our guests so beautifully and made sure we got all of the pictures we wanted while still enjoying our weekend. We wanted a photographer who would capture the activity and colors of our weekend, and who specialized in more candid pictures. We have only received the teaser album, but so far, the photos are just incredible. We are so excited to see the film photographs Sabina took too.

Russ Hickman Photography

Philadelphia, PA
  • Editorial style

Hi, I'm Russ. I grew up in the south and having lived in NYC for a few years after college, I now call Philadelphia my home. I love TV and could watch movies all day long. I have two hilarious dogs, a welsh corgi named Jackson and a chihuahua/dachshund named Benny. When it comes to photography, I'm all in. I put everything into it... my energy, my humor, my time and there is nothing else I would rather do. If you see me outside of a job, I always have a camera on me because I just feel weird without one at my side.

Russ was absolutely fantastic both for our engagement shoot in June and on our wedding day in September. He's fun, kind and easy to work with — and helped both make our day go smoothly and get some incredible shots along the way. He both has an eye for framing, lighting and interesting shots AND captured the playfulness and silliness we both feel is such a big part of our relationship. We're so grateful to him for everything and would highly recommend booking him for your wedding!

Daring Romantics

Philadelphia, PA
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,200

Having been married for over 15 years now, we are wild believers that forever, joyful love is entirely possible for the daring! See, for us, true romance isn’t just the highs of chemistry but it’s in the small, intentional, daily pursuit of one another. Love is choosing patience and kindness and building one another up. It’s hard work but a grounded and great one where hope abides. It’s this beautiful intention that makes us thrilled to celebrate you and your own unique story as Daring Romantics.

Kristen was incredible from start to finish. She has a rare ability to make people feel completely at ease — which was essential for two people who don’t love the spotlight. We never felt posed or self-conscious; we felt present, joyful, and ourselves. And that comes through in every photo. She encouraged us to try different ideas, welcomed us behind the camera throughout the day, and kept everything feeling natural rather than scripted. Kristen is a true expert without any ego — confident, creative, and genuinely easy to be around. We didn’t want cookie-cutter wedding photos. We wanted something organic, heartfelt, and real — and Kristen delivered exactly that. The photos don’t just capture our wedding day; they capture us. Weddings can feel overwhelming, but Kristen kept things light and fun the entire day. Beyond her talent, she’s also a wonderful human, which matters more than people realize. We couldn’t recommend her more highly.

WE LOVE MJC IMAGE !!!! Mary is the absolute best !!! With any questions we had Mary responded instantly, she was fabulous with communication. If I overloaded her with questions, as every bride does, she would squeeze me in quickly with a zoom or ft call. She is super busy so her quality of response time was so appreciated. The second I saw Mary’s work, I knew I had to have her photograph my wedding. My husband and I had never done a photo shoot before our wedding, so we did an engagement shoot to get a little practice in before the wedding. Mary made us feel so at ease, we thought it would be awkward, Nope! Mary instantly felt like a friend we knew forever. Not to mention her pictures from both engagement shoot and wedding day are my favorite pictures ever taken. If you’re looking for a photographer Mary is your best option !

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Hi! It's so nice to meet you! I'm a Pennsylvania, New Jersey and New York Photographer from Scranton, Pa. I began my journey as a wedding musician, playing in countless bands in Pennsylvania. It wasn't until the birth of my son that I was thrust into the world of photography. As soon as I snapped my first photo of him, I found the beauty of photography. I quickly noticed the parallels between the music I create and the photos I was taking. The balance between light and dark, joy and sadness, bold and muted, energetic and relaxed intrigued me and drove me to this passion.
