When you hire Jamie you actually GET Jamie as your photographer on your wedding day! Why? 1. I LOVE photographing weddings! (I don’t want to send someone else to “do it for me” 🤪) 2. If you’re reading this, then you’re at the stage right now where you are researching individual photographers style, reading reviews showing their reputation, and scheduling a call to research their personality while sharing your vision. …. Now imaging doing all that work just for a “team member” or “an associate” photographer to show up on your wedding day? CRAZY RIGHT?! When you hire Jamie, your date is locked in FOR YOU, no unwanted surprises!

Awarded Best of Zola
Jamie was amazing! She brought so much enthusiasm to every part of the process from our engagement shoot to the big day. She helped us visualize the full timeline from start to finish, and her artistic eye and direction made us feel completely at ease in front of the camera. The photos are stunning—capturing every moment from getting ready to our bubble exit, and she stayed through the very end with no extra fees. Our album is gorgeous and such a special keepsake from the day. We can’t recommend Jamie enough!

Awarded Best of Zola
If you're looking for a wedding photographer who truly captures the essence of your special day, look no further than Lisa Blanche. From start to finish, Lisa was absolutely amazing to work with. Her professionalism and warmth immediately put us at ease, and we felt completely confident in her hands throughout the entire process. She made us feel like we were the most important couple in the world, which made our experience even more memorable. Her photos are nothing short of breathtaking. Every shot tells a story, perfectly balancing candid documentary-style moments with beautifully posed portraits. It’s the best of both worlds—authentic, emotional moments, paired with stunning, timeless images that will hang on your walls for years to come. Lisa has an incredible ability to make every shot feel natural and full of life, capturing all the little details that make your wedding day unique. What truly stood out was how Lisa listened to us and understood exactly what we wanted, while also providing expert guidance. She didn’t just meet our expectations—she exceeded them in every way, making our dreams come true and then some. Not to mention, Lisa’s husband was also a huge help and a joy to work with. Together, they make the perfect team, bringing not only expertise but also a sense of fun and ease that made us feel like we were working with friends, rather than just hired professionals. The end result was a collection of photos that surpassed everything we hoped for. We will treasure them forever. If you want a photographer who’s skilled, professional, and passionate about her craft—and who will truly make your wedding day unforgettable—Lisa Blanche is the one to hire.

I created Dear Heart Film + Portraits in college when I realized just how much I love photographing other people. It started with fun-loving seniors and now has developed into capturing adventurous couples who are so unashamedly in love.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot recommend Dear Heart Films enough!! From the engagement session, to timeline planning, to the wedding itself, Shelby and her team (Casey and Amanda) were amazing through and through. She is extremely detail oriented and had us fill out questionnaires to make sure that she was capturing our vision the way we wanted and she completely blew us away with her photos! She was also extremely flexible with us-- we decided two weeks before the wedding that we wanted our ceremony filmed too and she was able to accommodate us without any issues. One thing that I really love about her work is that you can see and feel the love and joy in the photos. I've looked at our wedding sneak peek album every single day since she sent it to us, and we are so excited to get the full album. Book her! You won't regret it! Thank you so much for capturing our day so beautifully Shelby, Casey and Amanda!!

Momo Shot Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (12 reviews)
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $4,800
  • Serves South River, NJ

I’m a drummer, a mother of two amazing kids, and a proud owner of an 80lb Samoyed. My passion for photography is deeply influenced by my family legacy—my grandmother was a dedicated full-time photographer who spent her life capturing and hand-coloring her own images. Growing up immersed in her art has profoundly shaped my own approach to photography. As a photographer, I'd love to capture the journey of two people in love, telling the genuine and touching story of their life together. I strive to create images that convey heartfelt narratives and reflect the true essence of your relationship and the moments you share.

Awarded Best of Zola
Finding Momo on social media was a total game-changer. I was instantly drawn to her documentary-style photography, which beautifully focuses on genuine moments and raw emotions. I wanted photos that would make our special day live on forever, and Momo delivered exactly that. From day one, working with her was incredibly easy—from the initial consultation to signing the contract and discussing our shot list. She quickly became the vendor I trusted the most, and that trust was not in vain; she was hands-down the best person we worked with for our entire wedding. On the wedding day, she actually arrived at our hotel before I did! Since we didn't have a wedding planner, I hadn't prepared perfectly for her, but Momo is a true professional. She made brilliant use of whatever was available, capturing stunning photos of us, our loved ones, and our accessories seamlessly. My husband and I are both quite shy and introverted, and the idea of being the center of attention in front of a camera felt incredibly daunting. But Momo has a magical way of easing all of that anxiety. Instead of forcing stiff, awkward poses, she gently guided us to just look at each other, breathe, and be present. She made us feel completely safe, relaxed, and happy. Because of her gentle approach, she captured our true selves rather than a performative version of us. The photos genuinely reflect exactly who we are and how our love feels. In fact, our friends keep telling us that every single photo looks like a gorgeous frame of a short film—there is so much cinematic storytelling and life in each shot. To top it all off, she was incredibly fast with delivering both the sneak peeks and the final online gallery, and was always responsive to our questions. Momo is generous, genuine, and truly invested in making your day as special as possible. We are deeply grateful for her and cannot recommend her enough!

  • Serves South River, NJ

We are Jenn and Ro, a husband and wife team based out of Central Jersey. An AOL chatroom brought us together in 2003 when we were high school seniors and we got married a few years later. Shortly after our wedding, we fell in love with photography and all things wedding. As a boutique studio, we love to create a relationship with our couples that lasts throughout the entire wedding process and beyond. Our goal is to make sure you are having fun and enjoying every second of your day while we are working behind the scenes to capture every moment.

Awarded Best of Zola
J&R Photography was the best choice for our wedding photography! From the moment we first spoke with Jenn and Ro about being one of our wedding vendors, we were immediately impressed by their friendly, and personalized communication style. They made it so easy to understand what they offer and what their photography style is (exactly what we were looking for). They truly want to be the best fit for your special day and will make sure you understand everything before booking. After we booked our date, Jenn and Ro sent us the most personalized package (including samples of their work, date night activity cards, the BEST sugar cookies personalized with our wedding date and a Starbucks gift card for wedding planning). It was the KINDEST gesture that made us feel so special and took a little bit of stress off planning! Our engagement shoot was nothing short of perfect; Jenn and Ro made us feel SO comfortable behind the camera and made us so excited for our wedding day. It was incredible getting to know them better in addition to capturing early memories. On our wedding day, they created a warm and laid-back atmosphere, making us feel like we were just having fun rather than being constantly photographed. The quality of their work is stunning - their natural, candid shots captured all the joy and special moments of our day. They sent us digital previews so quickly and even gifted us 5 8x10 prints that we came home from our honeymoon to! My cousin booked Jenn and Ro for her 2020 wedding, and I knew as soon as I saw her gorgeous photos that J&R Photography was the team for us. Five years later, we know we could not have made a better choice. We can't wait to see the rest of our photos and w e couldn't recommend them more highly!

I am Paul, a husband, father, and photographer serving the east coast NY, NJ, tri-state area, and available for travel worldwide. I have a joy and enthusiasm for life, love, and marriage. I love creating beautiful photos and capturing moments and memories but more importantly I love to photograph weddings and engagements because I love marriage and the love it signifies.

Awarded Best of Zola
Paul was absolutely incredible to work with! We had the pleasure of working with him for both our engagement shoot and wedding, and he made every moment enjoyable. From the start, Paul was kind, communicative, and incredibly creative. My husband and I can sometimes feel awkward in front of the camera, but Paul made us feel completely at ease. He avoided overly posed shots and instead guided us into natural, flattering poses, (but still fun and creative) which turned out stunning. We were a bit nervous about finding a great photo location without needing to drive somewhere else. We thought we might be able to take photos around the grounds; Paul arrived early and scouted out the best spots, ensuring we had the perfect backdrops for our pictures. We had a few edit requests, and Paul was more than accommodating. On the wedding day, he was meticulous in capturing all of our group photo requests and making sure no detail was missed. At the reception, Paul expertly documented all the little moments that will allow us to relive those joyful memories for years to come. We couldn't be happier with our photos!

Carolina Wahnish Rivera Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (7 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves South River, NJ

When I was a little girl, my favorite part about making the trip to Argentina to visit my grandparents, was rummaging through their old boxes of prints on a rainy day and just imagining life through those photos. I think that's what started my passion for photography. Knowing that a photo can have such an impact on a child, someone who hasn't even met you yet, makes taking them all the more meaningful. I am passionate about making meaningful images for others because I know how important those photos will be in the future.

Awarded Best of Zola
Choosing a photographer was easy because Carolina came HIGHLY recommended by a good friend. From our very first phone call, I knew that I was in good hands, and that I was now working with an artist. Carolina offers a complimentary “connection session” just to get to know you as a couple before your big day. This was a fantastic touch and also served as “save the date” photos. It also made me feel so at ease on the day because I already knew how we would be photographed. The day of the wedding! Carolina captured what we agreed on, standard family photos and such. But I also told her to just “do her thing” because at this point, I had seen her work. I’m so glad I did, because she really knows how to find the candid moments. The moments in between, using natural light and shadows, creating art with different lenses and imagination. When I saw the finished work, I was floored. I now have the best of both worlds; standard traditional photos for friends and family, but also artistic, special and dare I say editorial photos that I cherish even more. My friend already booked Carolina for her upcoming wedding. I am so happy with my choice and I hope everyone I know uses her. Thank you Carolina !

Hey, I’m Daniel. I’m a NY & NJ wedding photographer who incorporates fresh, contemporary techniques to create dramatic portraits for couples on their wedding day. The wedding industry is filled with incredible vendors who want nothing more than for you to have the epic wedding you’ve been dreaming of. But what if you don’t want just the classic and cookie-cutter things that this industry seems to offer? By understanding your needs and tailoring your wedding day coverage to you, I ensure that together we will create an experience that is just as fulfilling as the final image gallery.

Awarded Best of Zola
Choosing our wedding photographer was one of our most important vendor decisions. We wanted a photographer who was versatile enough to capture emotional moments and convey our wedding day through a story. We spent hours researching photographers, but when exploring a wedding expo, we had the opportunity to meet Daniel as he was advertising DTJ Photography. Even though it was a hectic day meeting tons of other photographers, we walked away from the expo impressed with Daniel's knowledge and artistic perspective. We were very specific with wanting a photographer to capture photographs in a moody candlelit ambiance, and after seeing Daniel's gallery we were positive he could capture our vision. After booking with DTJ, we were so impressed with his thoughtfulness and communication. Our engagement shoot session was the best way to not only get the perfect photos to share with our loved ones but to also work with Daniel and get any wedding day jitters out of the way. Our engagement photography session was invaluable as he taught us how to pose and helped us gained confidence in front of the camera. On the wedding day, Daniel and his team (Nelson and John) were a calm and commanding presence which made getting through our lengthy photo list effortless, even when we had our large extended family portraits. The entire day went without a hitch as Daniel, Nelson, and John brought an extremely positive energy that kept our spirits high throughout our wedding day. We felt that they were able to holistically, purely, and dynamically capture our wedding day. All of our photos are absolutely breathtaking: the details, our first look, formal portraits, bridal party features, and fun dance floor shots are all so meticulously captured. So many of our friends and family said we look like models or should be on the cover Vogue. We cannot express how ecstatic we are with the photos we will have for the rest of our lives. If you're looking for an authentic and charismatic person who is a versatile photographer that can capture unique moments and convey your wedding day through a story like we were, Daniel is the man!

She knows exactly when and how to get the best photos and she never interferes with dancing which for me (and the band) is everything! Her talents will speak for themselves as you view her beautiful work, but as a professional seeing how she works behind the scenes, I can tell you without a shred of doubt that if you hire her, you will have zero regrets!

I help couples stay present instead of performing. For 25 years, I've photographed weddings for people who care more about connection than perfection. Most photographers pose you. I build rapport first and guide gently, because people look their best being themselves. Before your wedding, we meet to discuss what matters. On the day, I protect your time so you focus on your people. I find the light, prompt gently, and capture what actually matters. You get both film and digital. The photos feel true to who you are and how your day felt.

Awarded Best of Zola
We could rave for days about our overall experience with Laura and the end product photographs and prints we received. Laura's experience and professionalism were demonstrated pre-wedding with effective communication and outlining of expectations. She provided excellent advice which ultimately made the day of go much smoother. At the wedding and reception, we were impressed by how unimposing Laura was while still being able to capture the moments most significant to us, as well as the ones we didn't even know would be the most important to us until we saw them. When the fire alarms went off unexpectedly, she took it in stride, creating the most of the moment by placing us near the fire trucks and capturing some of the best pictures of the night. We sincerely and strongly recommend Laura for wedding photography and continue to be so grateful!

WHO WE ARE... Authentic? Artistic? Creative? Timeless? Nope! These are among the most overused marketing words in the wedding-photography industry. They aren't meant to capture your life. They are meant to capture sales. How do we describe our work? The same way you would describe your relationship: wild, unpredictable, playful, and - above all else - fun! Your biggest day shouldn't follow a tired script. Let us share in your vision and help you tell your story!

Nick & Kelly...we freakin love you guys! Not only have our sneak peak pictures been AMAZING, Nick & Kelly's energy kept us laughing all night long. My husband and I hate posed pictures, but with Nick & Kelly, it never felt awkward or like work. There are absolutely no other photographers we would've liked to spend our entire wedding day with. And they absolutely NAILED all the shots we wanted, and then some. We can't wait to see the rest of our pictures! Hire them immediately!

Simple. I love what I do. I love capturing those moments that last lifetimes and I love enjoying the day with my couples. I layout a day to keep everything fun - stress free and enjoyable. Direct when I need to and fade into the background when I don't. Love is love - and I love to document the moments for life.

Drew Noel is without a doubt, the best in the business. He blew us away with the creativity he brings to the process. We were extremely pleased with our wedding photos for our small ceremony and dinner since covid delayed our big event. He really did a fantastic job capturing a ton of incredible photos for our small group considering the circumstances. Gives direction very well and makes you feel comfortable and relaxed during.

From the moment I met Niki and Aubrey we knew in our gut who would photograph our wedding. Interviewing other photographers instantly became unnecessary. Niki and Aubrey’s portfolio spoke for itself, but witnessing his passion firsthand was the icing on the cake. Our first photography session with Niki and Aubrey was our engagement shoot, and that is where Aubrey shined. She was incredibly prepared, with a vision of the final product already in her mind, despite never seeing the location prior. Her excitement was contagious, and her attention to detail was second to none. The engagement shoot served as a proof of concept for our wedding, but still couldn’t prepare me for how perfect the big day would go. Capturing every moment, wrangling unruly groomsmen, being everywhere while simultaneously blending into the surroundings; Niki and Aubrey were the most incredible duo we have ever had the pleasure to witness in their element. The final edited pictures arrived quickly, and are absolutely breathtaking. We can’t choose a favorite, each one tells a story. We couldn’t be happier with our decision to have Niki Phillips Photography document our special day. We have since had Niki and Aubrey shoot our maternity pictures and will continue to be return customers of theirs for all of our photography needs in the future. We would wholeheartedly recommend their services to anyone.
