I've been in love with creating art since I was young, it's my passion and driving force. When I'm not behind a camera I can be found empowering women, planning my next trip to a faraway place, pulling over for roadside treasures or spending time with the people that I love. I'm so glad you've found me, let's create something beautiful together.

Christina captured my elopement and made the day so easy, and captured so many beautiful moments and images throughout the day. Most of the time I didn't really know she was there, but when needed she was very direct but professional (hey do you want that Apple watch in your photos?) Don't hesitate to work with her!

  • Serves South River, NJ

For the past 15 years, I’ve been lucky to work with clients from all over the country who ‘get me,’ in the same way that I love and appreciate every single one of them. In my opinion, your photographer is someone who has your back, shares your sense of humor, and helps you to forget that you’re in front of a camera. I wake up each day to a job that I love, and one that’s become a part of who I am. If it sounds like we should be friends, I'd love to hear from you!

Sam Nichols was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding day. Sam photographed two of my sisters weddings so I knew it was going to be beautiful. From our very first meeting, Sam was efficient, detail-oriented and extremely organized, putting us at ease throughout the entire planning process. The quality of their work is simply beautiful - the photos are incredibly detailed and professional, allowing us to relive our special day. Sam was always so considerate of our vision and I trusted that she knew exactly what would look right. She is kind, easy to work with and truly a pleasure to have as part of our wedding day. We couldn't be happier with the gorgeous photos that perfectly capture all the joy and love of our wedding.

Lindsay and Nathan were absolutely fantastic! We are not naturally photogenic people, but they made us feel so comfortable and confident in front of the camera. From start to finish, they were a dream to work with — super easy to get in touch with and always responded right away. We got 100 sneak peeks the very next day, which completely blew us away — and every single photo was stunning. Our friends and family can’t believe the incredible shots they captured and how organized and calm they were throughout the day. They truly handled everything on the wedding day and took so much stress off of us. We didn’t have to worry about a thing — they kept everything running smoothly and made the whole experience enjoyable. It was also such a huge plus that they handle both photography and videography! Our engagement session with Lindsay was also such a great experience and made us feel even more comfortable leading up to the wedding.

Marc and his team were absolutely amazing. Marc was my saving grace when I was going through a nightmare with the original photographer I hired for my wedding. He took the time to listen to everything I was dealing with, reassured me that he could bring my vision to life, and showed so much patience throughout the entire process. I was frantic, stressed, and overwhelmed, and Marc worked with both me and my husband with such calmness and professionalism that it instantly put us at ease. On the day of the wedding, I started to panic due to a delay in the timeline… something completely out of his control. Yet Marc never once made me feel rushed or like we were losing moments. Instead, he reassured me that he would capture everything I wanted, and he absolutely delivered. I cannot put into words how much we love our photos. The quality is unreal… so clear, vibrant, and beautifully composed. Marc captured us authentically, in the moment, and in a way that felt true to who we are as a couple. Every photo feels like a memory frozen in the most perfect way. Marc and his team are not just talented photographers… they are kind, patient, organized, and truly dedicated to their craft. They went above and beyond from start to finish. I am endlessly thankful for the experience we had with them and for the breathtaking images we get to cherish forever. If you are looking for a photographer who will treat your wedding day with the care, artistry, and professionalism it deserves, look no further than Marc and his team.

As a mom, my daughter’s baptism was one of the most precious and joyful days of my life, and having Olya there to capture it was the best decision we made. From the moment she arrived, Olya felt like family. She was so warm and approachable, instantly putting us at ease, which made the entire day feel even more special. The photos Olya took are absolutely beautiful. She didn’t just capture the big moments of the ceremony, but all the little details that made the day unforgettable—the looks on our faces, the love in the room, and the happiness of our friends and family. Every time I look at the photos, I feel like I’m reliving that day all over again. Olya was incredible with my daughter. Baptisms can be a bit overwhelming, especially for little ones, but Olya was so patient and gentle. She made sure my daughter was comfortable, and the photos she captured are just filled with joy. I couldn’t have asked for anything more. The reception was such a fun celebration, and Olya managed to capture the energy and happiness perfectly! From the dancing to the laughter, every photo is bursting with life and love. I didn’t even notice her taking half the photos, but when I saw them, they felt so real and full of emotion. I can’t thank Olya enough for creating these beautiful memories that we’ll treasure forever. She captured the heart and soul of our day with such care, and I’m beyond grateful.

Before hiring a wedding photographer, we were a bit hesitant—I’ve always been the one behind the camera, so being in front of it felt unnatural. My husband also isn’t a big fan of photos and was convinced he wouldn’t look good in them. But from the very beginning, Violet made everything so easy! Communication with her throughout the entire process was seamless. She was always responsive, helpful, and genuinely invested in getting to know us. We especially loved that she used the engagement session to connect with us, which made the wedding day so much less stressful and so much more fun! We felt completely at ease, and it truly showed in the photos. Not only did we love our experience, but our bridesmaids and groomsmen also had amazing things to say about working with Violet! She made everyone feel comfortable and captured such natural, beautiful moments. And the best part? My mom said this is the most beautiful she’s ever seen herself! That alone speaks volumes about Violet’s talent and ability to make everyone feel their absolute best. If you’re looking for a photographer who makes the process stress-free, enjoyable, and delivers breathtaking photos, look no further. Thank you, Violet, for capturing memories we’ll cherish forever!

Hi, I’m Yosaidy your hype woman, storyteller, and third wheel with a camera. I’m a Venezuelan photographer and graphic designer, currently based in New York (but always down to travel). I’ve been in the U.S. since 2016, but I actually started shooting weddings back in Venezuela when I was just 18. Since then, photography has taken me on the wildest ride meeting people from all over the world, learning about different cultures, and capturing the kind of moments you never forget.

Choosing Yosaidy Photography was one of the BEST decisions we made for our wedding. From the first conversation, Yosaidy made us feel comfortable, confident, and truly cared for. On the wedding day she captured every emotion so naturally happy tears, laughter, and all the little moments we didn’t even realize were happening. Our photos are absolutely stunning and timeless. We will treasure them forever.

Mario Oliveto Photography is genuine and heavily focused on real emotions, always believing that everyone has a story. Our photography makes you feel as if you were connected with those in front of the camera. Wedding photography is capturing real, raw, emotions, in the most beautiful fine art style.

We had nothing but positive experiences with Mario from engagement shoot to the big day! We used Mario for our engagement shoot in Philly about a year before our wedding. We were really unsure of locations and he had great suggestions that he ran by us and offered ideas ahead of time and during the shoot, he helped adjust as we looked at the lighting and space. We both expressed how unsure we were about taking professional pictures since this was a first for us and were not comfortable with a lot of the trendy shots and he really worked with us to make all the poses feel natural to us while still looking phenomenal. We decided to go with his associates for the big day based on our budget and they did not let down. Mario specifically picked two photographers who were familiar with our venue and had great suggestions for where to get the best shots. Our two associates, Rachel & Alyssa, were helpful, kind, fun, professional and absolute champs to get all the best pictures on our day. We had 100 degree temps and they worked so hard to make sure we were comfortable the entire time while not sacrificing the pictures we had planned for. They checked in with us often and were not afraid to tell our family that the group pictures were done so that we could actually enjoy cocktail hour (after confirming with us that is was what we wanted). They also took adorable couples pictures of our guests during lulls in the dinner service that my family and friends were beyond excited for. Mario and his associates are an absolute recommendation in my book and I can not say enough nice things about working with them!

We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer than Randi at Southern Winds Photography. She showed up ready for anything and handled the entire day with ease. Nothing felt awkward or over-directed, which made a huge difference in how natural everything looks in our photos. Her turnaround time was quick, and the gallery was full of moments we didn’t even realize were happening. It felt like reliving the day from a completely new perspective. If you want someone reliable, low-stress, and genuinely talented, she is a solid choice.
