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

Alli McGrath Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (6 reviews)
Smyrna, DE
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,700

I’m so glad you’re here! I’m Alli - your Delaware-based, multi-published wedding photographer! At the end of the day, your wedding is not about the photos, it’s about the fleeting moments and the emotions that come with them. My approach centers around photographing these candid, emotional moments to produce a timeless recollection of your day. Years of experience has led me to understand the ins-and-outs of weddings, allowing me to provide expertise to guide you through the whole process (and make tons of jokes along the way).

Awarded Best of Zola
I first met Alli from Alli McGrath Photography when she hired me to plan her own wedding — and she was an absolute dream to work with. When I found out she was a photographer too, it felt like such a natural connection, and I’m so glad we’ve had the chance to collaborate since! We’ve worked together on a few occasions now — including a branding session where she followed me to a wedding and captured behind-the-scenes moments, as well as a full wedding day we recently worked together. Each time, Alli brings such an easy-going, calming energy to the day. She's not just focused on the couple (although she serves them beautifully); she also goes above and beyond to support the family, wedding party, and all the vendors involved. She’s incredibly professional — always prepared and adaptable to whatever the day throws at her — but also brings such a fun, uplifting vibe. Her presence is a gift, and her assistant brings that same energy too! From a visual standpoint, I love Alli’s balance of candid and posed shots. Her style is true to color with a creative, artistic twist, and she never forgets to capture the little details and my team working behind the scenes — something I deeply appreciate. I can do nothing but rave about her work. The photos she delivers are stunning, heartfelt, and full of authentic moments. I recommend Alli wholeheartedly — whether it’s for a wedding, branding shoot, or family session. She’s your built-in hype girl who will make you feel incredible in front of the camera, and even better when you see the final gallery. She’s just the best!

Hey there, I'm Gaige! I'm a free-spirited digital and film photographer based in DE (but California born and raised) I am the person that finds myself going through my camera roll at 2am reminiscing and experiencing nostalgia with old photos- that is the type of feeling I want you to have when looking at your final gallery- 5, 10, 20 years from now. Being a lover of little moments, such as a passing glance between you and your spouse, to the big aisle kiss, I am truly here for all of it!

Gaige was the perfect photographer for our wedding day! She really valued how we wanted to stay in the moment throughout the day, but she still captured every moment beautifully. Her booking process. was easy, and she reached out multiple times prior to our day to make sure we were on the same page about all the details. We opted for film coverage- and did NOT regret it! All the photos came out so beautiful and we will cherish them forever.

Tiffany Caldwell Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (2 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,200
  • Serves Smyrna, DE

I bought my first 35mm film camera at a flea market when I was in high school. With that old Pentax K1000, I took my first film photos and learned how to transfer what I saw through the lens into a frozen moment captured in a photo. From the start, I've always kept my focus on people. I love to capture someone laughing, or the way parents engage in the wondrous curiosity of their kids, or simply someone just looking back at me. Photography isn't just something I do, it's an extension of the way I see the world.

Tiffany was the perfect person to photograph our very special day! We never felt like she was intrusive, yet she captured so many beautiful, intimate moments for us. I keep thinking I found my favorite shot, and then there are 10 more that I love as much. We got our 'sneak peak' much more quickly than anticipated. We can't say enough good things about working with Tiffany!!

Hey there! I'm a PA/NJ based photographer with over 500 incredible weddings under my belt. I've always loved documenting stories (I was an actor and an English teacher before venturing into photography), and the challenge of ensuring your personal story gets told in an emotive and authentic way is exhilarating to me. My team and I take pride in our desire to show up on your day as your personal confidence curators, and believe that in order to get the best imagery, you need to feel relaxed, empowered, and in the moment. Everything we do within our structure is to get you to that space so you can walk away with photos you'll treasure forever.

Christie and her team truly captured our perfect day. The team was amazing for creative content, as well as capturing our vision. They did amazing with our two pups and even got in the freezing cold ocean with us at the end of the night. Me and my now husband, felt extremely comfortable and relaxed through the entire process. I would recommend Christie and her team to anyone getting married and looking for photos in the NJ/PA/MD area. Everyone says how extraordinary our pictures turned out. We were also one of the first couples to have Jade record and create our video. Although we haven’t received the final product yet, Jade’s shots caught an authentic view of our relationship and day. We have no doubts of the amazing video we will cherish forever!

We couldn't be happier with having Laura Briglia Photography as our wedding photographer. Every time we spoke with Laura, her communication was timely, informed, and always relevant to our needs. A phone call with her easily becomes something akin to speaking with an old friend. That's to say nothing about the quality of her work, which is simply exceptional - the photos she captured are elaborate and dramatic, exactly what we wanted. We havent stopped gawking over our set in the 6 months since and are so relieved to have these photos for the rest of our lives. Laura went above and beyond what we expected, delivering dozens of stunning preview images less than a day after our wedding and going to great lengths to capture unique and breathtaking shots. Laura also made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera, even though we're not used to being the center of attention. Her passion and effort are evident in every aspect of her work, and we feel so fortunate to have had her photograph our special day. The value Laura provides is unmatched, as she could easily charge more for the service she offers. We can't wait to have her capture more moments throughout our lives.

I can’t speak this companies praises enough. From the beginning of booking, the communication was incredible. We requested Agnes for our wedding photographer and were delighted to get her. Both our photographer and DJ were booked through them. They walked you through planning call stages prior to our wedding. Both our photographer Agnes and our DJ Mark Allan called us directly to confirm details, and go over timelines and our direct requests. We were impressed with Agnes from start to finish of our day. She communicated well, gave amazing direction, and did her very best with our rowdy group full of kids and ensured that we could get pictures that will last a lifetime. She kept us comfortable, calm, at ease and still managed to make the experience incredible regardless of the rain. DJ Mark Allan was everything we were hoping for. Organized, timely, and fun. He was very helpful with helping us get messages out to the guests, playing the brides most requested songs, and keeping the guests and vibe fun and exciting. He was amazing and loved having him as our wedding DJ.

Portraits by Sean was truly a blessing from the Lord for our wedding! Sean was professional, proactive, and communicative from the start, and approached our day with such care, kindness, and intentionality—it was clear he sees his work as a calling, not just a job. He’s not just a photographer—he’s a storytelling artist. He beautifully captured the love, joy, and sacredness of what God was doing in our covenant, and how special it was to share that day with our loved ones. His photos bring those moments back so vividly. He was flexible, kind, and truly a joy to work with. The quality of his work is unmatched—truly high-caliber. We thank God for him and will cherish these memories forever. Highly, highly recommend!

I'm a photographer, mom, wife, snowboarder, roller coaster enthusiast, former math teacher, and former mechanical engineer. I love learning, which eventually led me to earn my Ph.D. (but please don't call me Dr. Kizuka!). I'm fueled by chai tea, rarely seen without a beanie or headband, and known to make questionable facial expressions while concentrating behind the camera. Most days you'll find me climbing, crouching, or occasionally standing in a creek to capture the perfect shot - though I do clean up nicely for wedding days!

Awarded Best of Zola
We used her for our engagement shoot & wedding photos. We didn’t realize that you should choose your wedding photography *style* before you reach out to potential photographers. If you go the other route—book first, learn about the style later—you may end up with photos that don’t match your vision. We came to Carrie after our first photographer disappointed us. She has more of a documentary style with less of an emphasis on the awkwardly posed photos. However, she will still go the extra effort to get an amazing poses shot if you ask. She has such a laid back and positive attitude. I recommend Carrie to anyone looking for beautiful images and a wedding day that doesn’t feel like a photoshoot. She’s a true professional.

I focus on visualizing how it felt to live your wedding day, while also crafting editorializations simply for the sake of intentional, living art. I am adamant that everyone, of all genders and orientations, any ethnicity, culture, or faith, all shapes, ages, and abilities, are welcome and I’d be delighted to work with you.

Awarded Best of Zola
We had the most amazing time working with Ali! We had kind of a long engagement and we initially started working with Ali over a year and a half before our wedding to get our engagement photos done. Not only were the photos beautiful, but Ali made us feel super comfortable and at ease throughout our session. Leading up to our wedding day, Ali was amazing at coordinating the day of timeline with our coordinator and making sure that all the elements that were important to us were included so that we had enough time to capture the moments. One of my favorite things about working with Ali is her calm presence. Every time I was stressed about something in the planning process about the timeline I would talk to Ali and she would immediately make me feel at ease. She was constantly reminding me that the most important thing on my wedding day was to be present with our friends and family (and as a type A bride this was a much-needed reminder!) Ali also came to take photos at our rehearsal dinner and welcome party which was great because she got to know our families and our family dynamics before our big day which was a huge help! On the wedding day Ali and the second shooter Scottie were rockstars! They went above and beyond at every opportunity from helping the boys tie a bow tie, climbing out on my fire escape to get a crazy photo that I had in mind, moving locations at last minute, dealing with rain, helping bustle my dress, and of course capturing all the beauty of our perfect day. I will not hesitate to work with Ali and her team again! She’s amazing, a true professional, and I hope we have the chance to have her capture our big milestones in the years to come.

Hi! I'm Meghan. I've had a love for photography since my parents bought me my first camera for Christmas in 2001. I took pictures of anyone and anything that sat still for more than .03 seconds. The more pictures I took, the more I loved it. It became a passion of mine, but it wasn't until later that I had the dream of starting my own business. In the meantime, I teach middle school - 7th grade Language Arts to be exact. Yes, it's exactly as crazy as you're imagining, likely even more so. Teaching has taught me two things: patience and how to laugh at myself.

We could not be more thrilled with the experience we had with Meghan and her husband!!! From the second they arrived they were completely in sync with the flow of the day! During our reception they surprised us with printed sneak peek Polaroids which was such a special touch! Then just a few hours after the event Meghan sent us an entire sneak peek album that captured the whole day! Their energy was amazing and they genuinely felt like part of the family! I could not be any happier with the photos I’ve seen so far and can’t wait to see the rest of the album! Truly STUNNNNNNING photography!

Awarded Best of Zola
I truly cannot say enough amazing things about Brayley. From start to finish, she was hands down one of the BEST decisions we made for our wedding. I originally found her on Instagram and immediately fell in love with her work. From our very first consultation, I knew I wanted her as our photographer. She was so incredibly sweet, knowledgeable, and intentional with the questions she asked. She genuinely wanted to get to know us and make sure our personalities, vision, and overall vibe were a good fit for her photography style — and that level of care continued through the entire process. Once we booked her, she made everything SO easy. She checked in with us throughout the planning process, sent update emails, always offered to help however she could, and gave us the most detailed resources to prepare for the wedding day. She had checklists for detail photos, preference sheets, planning documents — seriously, everything you could possibly think of. I never once felt like I had to wonder what she needed from me because she had already thought of it. And then came the wedding day… Brayley was absolutely INCREDIBLE. We only booked her without a second photographer, and somehow she managed to capture our entire night so perfectly. She was everywhere without ever feeling intrusive. She never made us feel rushed or stressed, even when we were running a little behind while getting ready. She rolled with everything, kept things moving, and somehow even managed to wrangle all of the boys and get every group photo we wanted. What I loved most, though, was how much I trusted her creatively. We gave her the freedom to do what she does best, and she gave us photos that are more beautiful than I could have ever imagined. She captured the big moments, the tiny moments, the emotions, the people we love, and so many little pieces of our wedding that I didn’t even realize were happening at the time. Looking through our gallery genuinely feels like reliving our wedding night. I tear up EVERY SINGLE TIME I look through our photos. She didn’t just give us beautiful wedding pictures — she gave my husband and me the ability to go back and experience one of the best nights of our lives over and over again. If you are looking at Brayley’s work and considering booking her, DO IT. There is absolutely no one else I would have wanted behind the camera on our wedding day. She is talented, organized, patient, kind, creative, and just an absolute joy to work with. Brayley, THANK YOU for capturing our wedding so beautifully and giving us photos we will treasure for the rest of our lives. I truly cannot recommend you enough.

My photo style is very documentary-oriented, highlighting those genuine, candid moments as they unfold, uninterrupted. I approach the day by aiming to capture not just how a moment looked, but really the way that it felt. I want you to look at your wedding photos and be able to remember the conversation with your sister that made you laugh that hard, and the look in your mom's eye that made you tear up as she zips your wedding dress. Those moments are my bread and butter. While I'm more than happy to offer some prompts and posing tips during couples portraits, I'm honestly most interested in what your day would look like if I weren’t there.

Awarded Best of Zola
We had a few recommendations for photographers, but when we came across Emily’s work on Zola and Instagram, we were instantly captivated. Her portfolio showcased not only her incredible talent but also her genuine passion for photography. From the start, Emily’s professionalism shone through. We’re a couple that doesn’t take photos very often, but she made us feel completely comfortable, and her natural ability to capture candid moments is unmatched. Emily has an exceptional eye for getting a variety of poses and using the scenery to create stunning images, and her artistic vision truly brought our engagement and wedding photos to life. Our wedding party was fairly large, but Emily handled it with so much patience, calling out names and groupings effortlessly to get every arrangement we had requested. Her second shooter, Wilson, was also a fantastic addition, honestly being a life saver for helping the groomsmen with their boutonnieres and capturing some key moments throughout the day. On our wedding day, Emily was the only vendor with us from start to finish, and she was a joy to work with. She collaborated seamlessly with our videographer, made sure we got in a few breathtaking sunset photos, and captured every detail of our wedding in a beautiful visual story. It truly feels like we’re reliving the day every time we look at her photos. From our initial call to the delivery of sneak peeks just a couple of days after the wedding, Emily was on top of everything. Her communication, even in the months leading up to the wedding via email, was excellent. Her photography packages had transparent pricing and clear deliverables, and she communicated everything with perfect clarity. I would 100000% recommend her to anyone. My husband even mentioned he hopes we have another reason to hire her in the future. Emily is a true professional with impeccable creativity and skill, and we can’t wait to see what she does next.

Dreaming of vibrant, whimsical wedding photos with no travel fees? Hi, I'm Sophia! Capturing love stories through my lens is not just a job but a profound joy that I cherish with every wedding I photograph. It's been six years and I've photographed close to 100 weddings which seems unreal! The photography gene runs in my family, my great-grandfather had his own photography studio in Panama and from there, knowledge of photography was passed down through the generations of my family to me. I believe in always having fun and prioritizing an stress-free lifestyle which translates into my photography style — candid, authentic, and joyful.

I cannot recommend working with Sophia enough. She was communicative, prompt and very efficient. She really worked with us what we wanted for the day in a short time frame and the photos just speak for themselves. We truly could not be happier that we chose to work with her!

We loved working with Cecilia Harvard Photography from start to finish. She responded to our questions quickly, which made the planning process so smooth. On our wedding day, Cecilia was incredibly involved and even danced with us to capture those candid moments we'll treasure forever. She made sure we got every shot we wanted and was genuinely sweet to be around. The sneak peeks of our photos already look absolutely stunning, and we can't wait to see the rest. We'd recommend Cecilia to any couple looking for a photographer who cares about their day as much as you do.

Thank you for visiting & CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR ENGAGEMENT!!! We are based in the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania area but travel all over for weddings. Our furthest yet was Vermont! Our bright, colorful & crisp photography style provides our clients with timeless images that will be forever cherished. When I am not working, I enjoy drinking wine, trying new breweries, traveling to the New Jersey shore with my husband, our baby boy born in February 2024 & family, watching Harry Potter for the millionth time, & cuddling with our mini schnauzer.

Andrea was a dream to work with. She made it so stress-free, and I truly felt I could reach out to her for ANYTHING I needed, even outside of photography needs. While she personally was unavailable for our wedding day, her associates Jess and Marlena were incredible, and perfectly captured our day. Andrea was fully involved leading up to our wedding, and completed the editing afterwards. The photos turned out better than I could have ever imagined, and I wish I had more reasons to use Andrea! She was a great communicator and very detailed. You will not go wrong in choosing her for your special day.
