But we were a little disappointed with the timeline of getting everything back. Our wedding was in early June and we didn't get pictures until the end of September and our video until mid-October.

  • Photographer

  • Serves Carteret, NJ

I began my photography career over 15 years ago as a photographer for a Natural History Museum. There I learned to be versatile and to shoot anything from galleries, portraits, events to fossils and fieldwork. Just like the museum, weddings also call for a versatile photographer to catch great details, ceremony and reception spaces, portraits and events. But with my wedding photography, I push for more. Inspired by photographers like Henri Cartier-Bresson, I follow the light and seek decisive moments—emotion and reactions.

Liz photographed our wedding this spring and we’re absolutely obsessed with the photos. She captured so many sweet organic moments of our love and with our guests, and she has such a great eye for color. Our wedding was bright and colorful out in nature, and everything just pops so well in the photos while still looking really natural. Liz was so kind and helpful and easy to work with the whole time. Highly recommend working with her for your wedding!

CLY BY MATTHEW has evolved at year 2004 from fashion, portrait and still life photography to the wonderful world of wedding photography, which incorporates all three genres. We follow a non-intrusive photojournalistic style for your weddings, which our clients (and their guests) very much appreciate. We concentrate not only on the big picture, but also we take pride in capturing the sincere fleeting moments that evoke the senses the very essence of photography.

Where do I start…I have so many things to praise about Matthew and his team at CLY by Matthew. The search for our photographer took forever, but once I found CLY and Matthew’s work, it was essentially an instantaneous decision. I left the intro meeting/conversation 100% sure we’d hire him. His and his team’s photography is beautiful, elegant, classic, and natural – and it was so easy to work with them from a fit and personality standpoint. I’ll admit, it’s a little awkward to pose for photography! But in the months leading up, and the day of, the wedding, Matthew and his team made us feel very comfortable in front of the camera. Matthew is one of the kindest people ever, and his calm demeanor made everything so pleasant and easy (especially with the frantic nature of wedding planning!) We are in LOVE with the photos we got back. We still can’t even believe it’s us, and our wedding, because the CLY team captured everything so amazingly. It’s surreal! We are so lucky to have found them and worked with Matthew. I’m hoping to find an excuse in the future to work with him again for professional photography. If you’re here and in the middle of researching photographers, stop reading and contact CLY immediately. You won’t regret it, I promise you.

Awarded Best of Zola
WHERE DO I EVEN START!? When I got engaged, I didn’t realize one of the hardest things about planning a wedding was going to be finding a wedding photographer. I loved so many photographers that I met with, but I didn’t connect with any of them the way I connected with Gabby. Her rich upbeat personality and knack for being so personable is amazing and very much radiates from her the moment I met her. That alone completely convinced me, but she knocks it out of the park with her perfect and thorough organization skills. Not a single detail was missed and she was so understanding of my anxiety the day of my wedding I don’t even know how she does it. She wasn’t just my photographer she was also my therapist, haha! If you’re looking for a photographer that can not only capture your wedding beautifully but also contribute so much happiness I can’t recommend booking Gabby enough. I’m so excited for whatever event me and my new hubby are going to have just so we can hang with her again!

Ricky Castillo & Havana Nights 

5.0

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $450
  • Serves Carteret, NJ

Within the pulsating heart of New York City's jazz scene emerges the unmistakable rhythms of Ricky Castillo's ensemble, a masterful blend of tradition and innovation. Castillo, a Havana-bred virtuoso who honed his craft under the tutelage of guitar legend Pat Martino, seamlessly melds the raw emotion of Cuban music and the intimate stories of the Buena Vista Social Club with the polished nuances of Latin Jazz, Bossa Nova, and Jazz Standards. His collaboration with Mayda Cuellar, an enchanting chanteuse from Havana's National School of Arts, adds layers of Son Cubano, salsa, and Latin pop to their repertoire.

"I knew our wedding tunes had to be just right. Enter Ricky. From the get-go, this guy just got us. He played all the right notes, making our day feel like a dream. His music? Spot on. The vibe? Perfect. Seriously, if you're tying the knot, Ricky's your guy. Best decision we made, hands down!"

I’m Lizzie, a wedding & engagement photographer in New York and New Jersey. For more than a decade, I’ve been capturing life's great moments. On wedding days, I am known for my happy and relaxed presence, making sure you’re on time and smiling throughout your whole day.

Working with Lizzie through the entire process, from shopping for a photographer, booking, engagement shoot, planning, day of and photo delivery was the smoothest process imaginable. My husband and I felt as if we were chatting with a friend every conversation, meeting and event we spent with Lizzie. To put it plainly, she is built for this business, in and out. Our engagement photos and wedding photos were all beyond stunning. We received sneak peak photos within days of both of our engagement shoot and wedding. The sneak peak wedding photos were received NEXT DAY! Our full wedding album came one month and one day later. Lizzie had the pleasure of photographing us when it was 20 degrees or less during our engagement shoot and torrential downpours our wedding day. The photos capture only our love and the best moments of our life, you would never even know the elements were less than cooperative. As mentioned previously, due to the weather on our wedding day 99% of our photos had to be fully indoors. Every single photos was even better than we could imagine. We were spoiled with being able to get a few awesome stunning outdoor shots when the rain broke for a little bit during our reception. Lizzie came with two additional photographers day off, Jacky and Hannah, that worked seamlessly with her to help towards our stunning lifelong memories. If you want to add a vendor to your wedding team that will ensure you have the day of your dreams to look back on forever, run don’t walk to book Lizzie.

When you elope in the middle of a pandemic, it matters all the more that you love your photographer--since they'll be the only other person at your wedding. :) And in short, we couldn't be happier that ours was Shawnee. She has such a gift and a love for the work she does—and it shows. We knew she was the right person from the moment we met on Zoom--she is warm and kind, asked all the right questions, and instantly put us at ease. My partner and I eloped at the end of October 2020 in DC, just before the election. It was a whirlwind moment for so many reasons, especially as a queer couple. And it mattered to us that the person who captured those treasured memories, really understood what that moment meant to us. Everyone who sees our photos marvels at how wonderful they are—and no doubt we look great, but Shawnee’s warmth and direction and stellar eye really made all the difference. Vibing with your photographer matters—we’re so grateful to have found one with such grace and as much love for her art as Shawnee. <3

We're a husband and wife team who love working together in pursuing our dreams while inspiring each other. We love capturing a combination of artistic and authentic moments that tells everyone's individual story. We pre-visualize from different perspectives, get inspiration from not the most obvious sources and view the world differently, especially photography. When we aren't behind our cameras, you can catch us binging one of our favorite shows, trying out a new local restaurant, or hanging out with our two cats Elmore & Albert.

Literally, look no further. The Gangis are professional, fun, organized and extremely talented. We are thrilled with our photos and can't recommend them enough!

My passion for photography started at a very young age. Polaroid,Kodak, disposable cameras anything I could get my hands on for as long as I can remember. After working for several years in photojournalism and editing I decided to make the switch to a full time wedding photographer in 2010. I haven’t looked back since. I love the rush and excitement of the wedding day. The ability to meet new people and travel new places. Every weekend I get to experience different families, friends, foods and cultures. It’s not a job it’s a gift. My gift in return to you is images I pour my heart and soul into.

I can't say enough good things about Meg. Not only was she just lovely to correspond with leading up to our engagement photos, but she did a PHENOMINAL job. She made us feel so comfortable and cute during our session, and her pictures came out AMAZING. She's the perfect photographer if you want natural, documentary style photographs that really just bring out your love and joy for each other. 10/10 would recommend!!
