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, I'm Danny! My passion is to capture couples & their love story in a timeless way. I like to describe my style as a fusion between story-telling & editorial. I lean into true-to-life colors with a warm ambience and posing that's timeless but also interwoven with an editorial flare that's unique, artistic, and stylish. I also love incorporating story-telling stills that involve movement rather than a bunch of photos that feel "stiff" or overly posed. Story-telling moments bring wedding galleries life! I’d love the opportunity to connect with you, and hear more about your wedding vision!!

Awarded Best of Zola
I’m so glad we hired Danny as our wedding photographer! We had the special opportunity to work with Danny and his wife as our second shooter, who are both the most down to earth people ever. Communication with him was always on point, he let us know exactly what to expect and made us feel super comfortable in front of the camera on our actual wedding day which was huge because I always tend to be awkward in front of one. When we received our photos back our jaws were on the floor. They were able to capture exactly what we were looking for, photos that were timeless and elegant while also capturing the perfect candids that just made our photos even more special. We asked Danny beforehand that he not only capture us but all of our amazing friends and family who were with us on our day and he absolutely delivered. Looking through our gallery made us feel like we were reliving our wedding all over again, from the laughs, to the tears, and more. We will truly cherish these pictures forever!

Hi! I'm Rebecca, a New Jersey based wedding photographer serving sentimental and joyous couples in the tri-state area. I have a deep love for animals, baking, and anything nerdy. On a non-wedding day, you'll most likely find me gardening or hiking!

I found Rebecca while I was (admittedly) stalking our venue on Instagram and her photos were a huge part of why we ultimately chose it. She truly knows how to capture a vibe, and I reached out right away. Best decision ever. From start to finish, she made our day feel completely seamless and was such a joy to work with — calm, organized, and genuinely fun to be around. She has this incredible ability to make you feel comfortable while also capturing the most natural, beautiful moments. Honestly, the best testament to her work is that at least three of my bridesmaids/friends also booked her after working with her on our wedding day & seeing our photos. I couldn’t recommend her more.

Don't worry; I will most definitely get those posed family photos as well, but for most of the day, I'm there to document it all as it naturally happens. I would love to chat with you more about your wedding plans and how I can be a part of documenting it!

Awarded Best of Zola
I was a 2025 bride, and to be completely transparent, we originally planned to spend no more than 3,500 on a wedding photographer. After speaking with Candy, we decided to invest 2,000 more than our initial budget, and it was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Candy’s communication is truly exceptional—you can immediately tell she loves what she does. She is incredibly creative, adapts effortlessly to any situation, and brings such a calm, confident presence. She’s never pushy, yet she directs with grace, which made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. My husband and I were married at 21c Museum Hotel in Durham, and we wanted a blend of elegant, traditional wedding photos along with fun, fashion-forward, editorial-style images—and Candy absolutely delivered on both. Her editorial shots look so effortless, even though you can tell there’s a lot of intention and artistry behind them. We inquired with five different wedding photographers, but we immediately connected with Candy—her personality, professionalism, and stunning work stood out from the rest. Beyond her talent, she is genuinely one of the sweetest, most humble, and human people you’ll ever meet. Candy offers a truly elevated wedding photography experience, and I would recommend her without hesitation to any couple looking for timeless, editorial, and heartfelt wedding photography.

I’m Cameron, a husband and photographer who got my start in commercial and fashion work before falling in love with weddings while planning my own. I focus on editorial-style weddings, with a special love for candid, unscripted moments—the jokes from the speeches, the look of joy on relatives face, the tearing up during the ceremony. All these things that make each day unforgettable. The moments I cherish from my own wedding are the ones I aim to capture for my clients, so you can relive them for years to come.

From our first conversation with Cam, we knew we had found our photographer. Cam's communication was clear and warm, which put us at ease throughout the entire planning process. On our wedding day, he was super attentive and captured every shot we wanted while also getting the energy and love that made our day special. His professional work is absolutely gorgeous and exceeded what we imagined. We honestly had the best photographer experience and can't recommend Cam enough to other couples looking for someone to document their wedding!!

Hello couples! Ive spent a lot of my career working with celebrities and professional athletes all over the world but have always had a connection with the wedding photography world and decided to go full time with that a few years ago! Im here because I love this, and believe that EVERYONE should have access to affordable, quality coverage for their special day. Id be honored to shoot your special day and seek out every moment I can for you, your family and your friends!

I can’t say enough about how incredible our experience was with Eric as our wedding photographer. Located at the Jersey Shore, where most photographers focus on sunny beach weddings, I was looking for something different. Our wedding took place in the fall, full of rich earth tones and a fun, edgy vibe that centered not just on romance, but on the presence of our children. It was important to us that the day felt authentic, emotional, and full of movement. And, just to make it more fun, ours was a Halloween wedding. We had a formal ceremony followed by a costume reception, and Eric embraced every bit of it. He didn’t just roll with our unique requests—he elevated them. He found the perfect location: a hidden gem that was edgy, raw, and exactly what I didn’t even know I was hoping for. The backdrop had this cinematic, timeless feel that makes you wonder “where in the world could they be,” which paired beautifully with our nontraditional theme. Photographing four young kids is no easy task, especially on such a big day. But Eric’s speed, patience, and instincts were unbelievable. He captured fleeting moments—tiny glances, quick smiles, the chaos and joy of our family—without ever losing sight of the romance and connection between me and my husband. Every image tells a story. Every photo feels felt. If you’re looking for a photographer who goes beyond the typical and brings a true artistic eye to your day—especially one that includes children, unconventional details, or an untraditional setting—Eric is your guy. We will treasure these photos forever.
