“After viewing other local photographer's work, I just didn't like any of the photos. They were too dark and posed/not natural. As soon as I saw Miranda's work, it clicked. I loved the bright, dreamy, whimsical, storybook vibes her shots give. The more I looked over her past work, the more I fell in love with her craft.
Meeting Miranda via Zoom was such a delight. She is seriously an amazing person—kind, funny, bubbly, and light-hearted. I explained that we were having a smallish wedding and were willing to forgo some shots if we could keep to a certain budget. Wow, she was willing to work with me and my husband! Other photographers in the tri-state area were at least 5-10k over.
As the wedding day drew nearer, Miranda kept us updated with a list of hyperlinks and ideas for different shots. She helped us organize a timeline that made everything flow seamlessly. Despite her laid-back and easy-breezy nature, she is actually SUPER organized, and how there were directions or video tutorials linked to everything displays her thoughtfulness and professional manner. The teacher in me was geeking out and loving this!
Miranda also took the time to get to know and understand our family dynamics and VIP wedding shot wishlists. This care and conversation made the wedding day shots run so much more smoothly. Several of my bridesmaids pointed out that their wedding photographers did not do this and it was much more chaotic on their wedding days!
What was SO special about Miranda is working with her! She was amazing with all the little kiddos in our bridal party and my dog. She really is a natural with people and has an eye for candid shots that make me tear up when going back to look at them.
Then, when it came to our couple shots, I was blown away. My husband and I are not young/20-something newlyweds, but the photos Miranda took made me look and feel like a princess. We both feel awkward taking photos, but my goodness, Miranda gives posing direction that feels natural and effortless, executing the most charming and romantic shots that made us look like a million bucks. Her editing style is true-to-color, capturing the real beauty and emotion of our day without over-processing.
Her gifts for organization, creative talent for getting those special shots, natural and easy way of clicking with people, and those gorgeous storybook photos make her a photographer I will recommend over and over again. If you're looking for an NJ wedding photographer who truly cares about your vision and makes you feel comfortable, Miranda is the one!”
