  • Serves Avalon, NJ

Our couples live and love in the moment. You know the ones. They live for adventures and sunsets, know the best places to eat, probably have an awesome dog and a secret handshake. Our style can be defined as modern and vivid photography, with just a touch of moody. We love capturing those perfect candid moments, but include just enough posed photos to make mom, dad, and your future gallery wall happy.

Awarded Best of Zola
Wild Hearts was the best photographer you could ask for on your wedding day! Kamelia is great at communicating throughout the entire process. Ahead of the wedding day we had a comprehensive 45 min conversation before I booked her about vision. She actually helped me get a timeline set up for the day and gave me a list of other recommended vendors which I used to find my hair/makeup stylist. It was very easy because the payments were broken up over time so nothing snuck up on you. About 1 week before my fiancé and I met up with Kamelia over brunch to discuss the locations of all the shots we planned on taking, the color scheme, all family members for those photos, and to get more comfortable with each other. I really appreciated this. The day of the wedding I could ask for nothing better. Kamelia is very organized and kept the whole day running with great direction. It was easy to follow her direction to set up poses and get some candid shots. Allyson was the other photographer and really got along with the groom and the groomsmen. They knew all of the good spots around Asbury Park and the board walk to get photos. The best times that my husband and I had was when it was just us and the photographers walking around Asbury Park Boardwalk. We were all vibing having a great time and I really think that made the photos even better. They are both such lovely and professional individuals to work with and it shows. Both photographers took INCREDIBLE photos. You always want your wedding photos to turn out great but these exceeded my expectations. Every single person at my wedding has nothing but incredible things to say about the photos. I would highly recommend Wild Hearts if you are getting married in or around Asbury Park. They were beyond a pleasure to work with.

Penney and the team at Blossom & Bee are incredibly talented. We found them on instagram less than two months out, a little desperate to find the right florist who understood our vision. We wanted wild, organic florals with rich and a hint of soft colors to really make our day stand out and they totally delivered. They were so kind and caring the day of, making sure we loved our chuppah and everything. We cannot recommend this team enough, we already are telling our friends getting married that they have to check them out. Also, reasonably priced considering how gorgeous their work is!

Our wedding day exceeded even our own expectations and was absolutely flawless. I expected a little hiccup somewhere along the way, but there were none. The entire team we worked with were true professionals and had the whole process down to a tee. Our director, Allie, was beyond organized and accommodating, helping us throughout the entire planning process. Chef Thomas is incredible and so invested in ensuring all the food was delicious. Everyone who attended went out of their way to tell us it was the best food they have ever had at a wedding. If you are considering booking with Park Loft, all I can say is DO IT!! You will not regret it and you and all your guests will be blown away by the all around perfection of Park Loft.

Working with Alex was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. As a type A bride, I was reluctant to hand things over, but working with Alex was the best decision for our wedding. She was patient, concise, creative, and on top of just about everything. She made sure all of our vendors were aligned the month/day of, went above and beyond to help us decorate so we could save costs on florists, and made sure to check up on us throughout the entire process. We are so grateful to her and HIGHLY recommend working with her for your wedding! Absolutely loved her.

We discuss every detail of their wedding day, ensuring they're comfortable with our approach. We won't ask you to do anything cheesy for the camera; our job is to observe and document the natural, amazing moments. We're professionals at making you look and feel your best, knowing when to take the spotlight and when to blend into the background. Let's connect through the inquiry form so we can learn more about you and discuss your wedding day in detail. We're eagerly looking forward to meeting you.

Jose at Delia Studios and Delia overall was so easy to work with. I met with multiple videographers before Delia and definitely felt the most comfortable with them and felt like we were getting a ton of videos and content for the money we were paying. Not just any videos though, ALL of our videos turned out amazing and we could not be happier. On wedding day, they were on time, so creative and got amazing footage from it. It is so clear how much pride they have in their work and I would recommend Delia to anyone. They will answer your emails quickly and it is a very personal experience. Thank you Jose and Delia team!

Working with Danielle is always a treat, she is has a natural positive energy and that shows in her portfolios. Couples are in their natural state, at ease with Danielle and not posed. I love the way she captures color in it's true form and her detail shots are thoughtfully arranged. We look forward to the next event Danielle!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Nicole for my wedding, and I couldn’t have been happier with the experience! From the moment I contacted her, communication was smooth and professional. I booked a trial session, which was incredibly helpful. Nicole took the time to understand my vision, suggested tweaks based on my skin tone and personal style, and ensured I felt comfortable with every decision. On the day of, Nicole and her team arrived on time and set up quickly. She was efficient, which was great since I had a large bridal party, but she never rushed through anything. The makeup looked stunning—soft and natural, with a hint of glamour that lasted ALL DAY day. My bridal makeup was flawless, it literally did not budge. I received so many compliments! I highly recommend Nicole for any bridal makeup needs—she’s a true professional, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again in the future.
