Wild Hearts NJ 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,700
  • Serves Dayton, 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.

I tell each couple’s story beautifully and comprehensively in a way that is uniquely them creating wedding photography that emphasizes raw emotion, subtle gesture and straight-up fun! I've been photographing weddings professionally since 2004 and have run my own business for over 15 years.

Awarded Best of Zola
I have been performing for weddings for 27 years and as band leader, I work closely with the staff as well as the other vendors, as we all need to work as a team to truly get the most out of the event for our clients. Michelle is one of those memorable photographers that upon arrival, I immediately know that we are going to have a stress free night. 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!

Dear Heart Film + Portraits 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Dayton, NJ

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.

We just had our wedding on 11/17/2023 and I cannot say enough amazing things about Shelby and her team who worked with us on our big day! From the very beginning Shelby was literally amazing, she is super supportive, kind, and organized. When we first got engaged, I talked with a few different photographers over email but Shelby was the only one I felt like matched our style, vibes, and her personality was also a great fit for us. When we did the intro zoom call, I felt like we were a great fit! My husband and I are more on the casual side of things for photography, never big fans of posing for the cameras but Shelby made us feel comfortable during our engagement session so I knew she was the right fit and I couldn’t wait for the wedding photos! Fast forward almost 1.5 years later, Shelby created detailed schedules and met with us a few times to go over the details of the wedding day. She has super detailed forms that you get to fill out to make sure you get everything you want on the day of. I will say, the schedule that she made was SUPER helpful, I sent it to Hair/MUA as well as my bridal party so everyone knew where and when to be at certain times throughout the day. Finally it was the big day! Shelby was scoping out the venue early and started taking the detail shots (dresses, perfume, rings, etc)! We also had a second photographer and videography included in our package. What I loved most about our experience with Shelby is that she was just a calm and confident presence during our big day. I feel like sometimes people get flustered, nervous, jittery, etc with everything going on but Shelby was there for us whether it be cheering us on to get the perfect shot, encouraging us to get that kiss, directing family members so we didn’t have to, or holding on to our tissues for all the happy tears. Shelby also is mindful of what YOU (the couple) want on your big day. If you change your mind about certain poses or things you want to do throughout the night, no big deal, Shelby goes with the flow! I loved all of the natural poses that she put us in and we are literally IN LOVE with all the sneak peeks she sent us. We can’t wait to see the entire gallery as well as our wedding video in a few months! Shelby, thank you for everything you and your team did, you are so incredibly talented and amazing! I would HIGHLY recommend using Shelby at Dear Heart Films for your wedding!! 100000/10!!

  • Serves Dayton, NJ

Hi! I'm Naomi, a wedding and portrait photographer passionate about what I do. I strive to build a relationship with my clients, making a connection that enables me to bring out the best in them and capture it with my camera. I love to work with natural light, and my work strikes a perfect balance between photo-journalistic and traditional. Based in scenic Hunterdon County, and lucky to use my beautiful surroundings as a backdrop for my work.

If we could give Naomi 100000000 stars we would! She was amazing from the first time we spoke with her and still continues to be amazing to this day! We got married in June, in the heart of the pandemic. And she was so kind about all of it. She makes you feel so comfortable in front of the camera, which is one thing I was worried about- both my husband and myself are pretty awkward with posing.. but she was able to capture all of it like nothing. And she did it with the biggest smile on her face the whole time! And most importantly, her photos turned out BEAUTIFULLY. I still scroll through them at least once or twice a week and it’s now months later. She captured EVERYTHING. Highly HIGHLY recommended.

Photography by Fabienne 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,499
  • Serves Dayton, NJ

First and foremost, I care about capturing your vision. Fabienne has been passionate about photography and capturing moments of beauty long before she officially started her business. Years ago, a friend asked Fabienne to photograph her intimate backyard wedding. In doing so, she discovered that she could share her passion and talents with the world. That same year she launched her business shooting weddings, and later expanded to newborns and families after the birth of her daughter. Additionally, she has over 10 years experience in commercial photography.

Fabienne is a true artist and a true professional. She photographed my wedding, and we've worked together on many photography projects since then as well. Before planning my wedding, I didn't think that choosing a great wedding photographer was super important for me, and didn't think it would be a top priority. I was wrong! I can't believe how much I treasure my gorgeous wedding photos. Fabienne knows how to make every shot beautiful, and she's inventive and creative in her approach. Plus, she really understands the logistical challenges of a wedding and knows how to make the process as stress-free as possible. She listens to what you want, and she'll make sure that you get every photo your heart desires.

I highly recommend this company to take photos at your wedding! We loved our photographer Percy. He was incredible, and so helpful. He came with several cameras and valued all of our ideas, and when we became stumped he offered ideas for us to try as well. He was very professional, kind, caring, and always on top of the game taking photos. Towards the end of our night he started to put the camera away and brought it back out to catch a few final moments. He was on top of responding to all questions before, during, and after. He took photos of me and my husband before the ceremony and got some wonderful shots (it was a 95 outside wedding so this was much appreciated because we all had some sweat on our faces). But before we got Percy and our booking process with eivans it was super simple, and just an overall great experience.

We're a husband/wife photography duo. We're college sweethearts and we're currently expecting our first child in June 2021! We are so happy to be in this business but we didn’t always know we’d become wedding photographers. Seth spent about 10 years in video production (aka the equipment expert) and Nicole is an advertising art director (aka the artsy perfectionist).

If you have not booked a wedding Photographer for wedding yet do yourself a favor and book Seth now!! We found Seth on tagged photos on instagram of our wedding venue and it was like the stars aligned. Since the moment we met him it was like speaking with a friend. He made us so comfortable with him from the first meeting. We did an engagement shoot with Seth and he shot our wedding day. For someone who is not confident in themselves, Seth made me feel so comfortable and beautiful! The photos are amazing. Friends and family have said our wedding previews looks like a photo shoot out of Vogue! Your wedding day goes by SO fast but you spend a lot of time with your vendors. I am so grateful we booked Seth and Hyde Photography for our wedding. He made the day relaxed and fun. The photos are breathtaking and we have only seen our previews.

If you’re looking for a moody, dreamy, romantic wedding photographer, look no further! Carly is absolutely incredible! My husband (then fiancé) and I were searching for a wedding photographer in the Cleveland area when we stumbled upon Drzazga Photo. Best thing to happen to us!! Early on in my planning I knew my wedding aesthetic was going to be boho rustic and I wanted a photographer who would be able to capture it well. We found that in Carly, and honestly, she can make any wedding style look fantastic in her photos!! If you haven’t checked out her work, DO IT ASAP! Not only are the photos she takes beautiful, but Carly’s eye for angles and poses is astounding. She’s incredibly talented and SUPER sweet. Both my husband and I are uncomfortable in front of the camera, but when working with Carly, she made us feel super comfortable and being photographed by her was actually fun. She’s also available at a really great price. While searching for photographers with similar style and quality, we found most of them were way out of our price range. Now that she has an associate team, you can get the same quality for even a bit cheaper! I didn’t work with the associate team, so I can’t speak to how they interact with their clients, but if you can, don’t skimp on having Carly shoot for you, I promise you won’t regret it! She not only gives you great quality for a great value, but she even includes an engagement photoshoot! (Although complimentary, the photos we got blew us out of the water and also got us really excited to see what she would be able to do at our wedding!) Spoiler alert: she crushed it! We are floored by how good the wedding photos turned out and we haven’t got the whole gallery back yet!! Also, Carly is SO incredibly accommodating! She drove all the way from Cleveland to Columbus just to do our engagement photos because it was more convenient for us!!! Her dedication to her clients is UNRIVALED! I can’t say enough good things about Carly and the team at Drzazga photo!! I’m just so happy we were able to snag her before she booked up!! (She’s a hot commodity, so if you’re even remotely considering her, book her or you might miss out on her magic!) We are keeping her contact info saved because we will certainly be reaching out for any professional photos in the future!! Thank you, Carly, Kasey, and team!!! You guys are the best!

That's one of the many amazing parts of my work. I've been capturing love stories for more than seven years and I LOVE to do this for a living.

We loved Flo from the moment we met! From our meetings and all the emails in between, she remained so approachable and easy to communicate with. It made us excited to spend time with her during our engagement session and wedding day. We love her vision and attention to detail, plus she provides gentle guidance and direction to beautifully capture emotion and love in our photos. Flo along with her second photographer Lena worked hard to get every photo and detail of our wedding, and just from our sneak peek, we can tell how much love and care went into capturing our wedding. No notes! We love Flo and truly had an amazing experience working with her. We would 1000 percent recommend to book her for your wedding, event or portraits!!

We are so lucky to have had Anecdote Photography as our wedding photographers. From the moment we first spoke with them, their communication style was immediate, detail-oriented, friendly, and respectful. The quality of their work was flawless - the photos are beautiful and creative, and they had such an easygoing presence that put us at ease on our wedding day. Eddie, our lead photographer, was one of the best parts of our special day. He was extremely organized and helped lay out the timeline perfectly, and he was so thoughtful - he even had extra bobby pins on hand when my hair needed a touch-up, and he helped the groomsmen with their boutonnieres at the church. We cannot recommend Anecdote Photography highly enough - their attention to detail is impeccable, and they are truly wonderful to work with. Please consider them for your next event!

If you're the kind of couple that would prefer their photographer feel like one of the guests as opposed to a paparazzi, and if when the neighbors complain about the noise, you just invite them to the party, keep reading. I take a documentary-style approach to my weddings. Roaming with a camera, I capture the candid moments and small details that make your wedding unique to you, while making sure to set aside time for a few special portraits.

Stephanie is well worth the price. She’s taken photos of our family starting with our engagement and just did our first family photos with baby. She’s taken pictures of everything in between. Our wedding photos were perfect and we got so many amazing photos each shoot we do. She’s easy to work with, adaptable (we ended up being late to our own wedding and she captured amazing photos of the venue while waiting) and she got amazing photos of my husband who hates his photo getting taking. Hiring her is the best decision you will make!

I'm Angelica, the owner of Dawnpoint Studios! I'm an adventurous and internationally requested wedding/elopement photographer with a focus on sustainability! Here's an unexpected fact - I hated weddings when I first started second shooting them. It broke my heart to see couples being rushed, overwhelmed, and not truly having any connection to couples. That's what drove my passion to breath a fresh air into the wedding experience! Plan with intention, focus on being present, and building genuine relationships with couples! You should be heard, appreciated, and understood. You should feel encouraged to get married your way.

Read for my true heartfelt experience with Angelica at Dawnpoint, but in short - hire her. This should be the easiest decision you make in your wedding planning journey. I came across Dawnpoint after she documented the wedding of someone I know. Those pictures felt so authentic and real. They took me right to the event and made me feel so much. I knew I needed to meet her. From my initial zoom meeting with Angelica, we hit it off. I said I wanted to get the best views in our pictures. She was on board right away. For our engagement pictures, she took us on a hike. Chris and I showed up in hiking gear with our formal wear in our packs. So did Angelica. This may seem so minuscule but for two people who had never been photographed and just wanted someone to make them feel comfortable and to capture something real, this made us trust her from the get go. Needless to say, those pictures were amazing. We even used them for our save the dates! Fast forward to our wedding day in Lake Placid on June 15, 2024. My goals were ambitious but Angelica was on board every step of the way. From creating the timeline to executing the plan the day of, it was the least stressful part of our day. What I loved most was that she listened to my vision and incorporated it in everything she did that day. I even forgot that I wanted a specific picture of my dress, but she definitely did not. When I was getting ready, she had my bridal party share personal stories of us and it was so sweet, I felt so connected to the people closest to me that day and it helped me stay grounded and present from the beginning. For our first look, we wanted to meet at the top of Whiteface Mountain. This was 40 minutes away from our venue and logistically a lot of things could go wrong. Yet, Angelica was a smiling face reassuring me that we could do it. Everything from asking for us to skip the elevator line, to clearing the space on Whiteface for Chris and I to get our moment. I was and remain truly speechless of how she actually made this happen. The pictures speak for themselves. After, we returned to our venue and without delay resumed with a first look with my dad (which I added last minute and was meeted with so much excitement from Angelica). One of my favorite parts was golden hour pictures. I take zero credit here. This was Angelica’s idea and I am so thankful. It was a truly beautiful and authentic experience to photograph the newly wed joy I felt. This is just one of so many ways in which Angelica showed that she was as present and invested in our day as we were. After receiving my sneak preview pictures, I was honestly met with so much emotion. I was brought right back to each moment and exactly how I was feeling. I am truly blown away because if anyone can get a picture to tell a thousand words, it is Angelica. She perfectly captured our day and was the single most best decision I made that day. Unsolicited feedback from my guests: “Your photographer smiled the entire night! She looked like she was having so much fun!” This was feedback I got multiple times and it goes to show much Angelica loves her job! P.S. Jake, her second shooter, was also an absolute pleasure. Together, their energy was infectious.

We are a married couple of photographers. Within years of career, we discovered what’s really matters - we want to make people happy. Weddings have it all: new interesting people, touching stories, warm family relationships, tears. A lot of tears! Oh, don’t forget dances and sparklers! So, it’s fun! 🙂 Also, we love weddings because it’s the most challenging kind of photography in the field, it combines all the genres. It make you think, move and react quickly in constantly changing surrounding. We have no room for mistakes. So It’s never boring! 🙂

Working with Tati and Roman was an absolute delight! Their professionalism and personable approach put us completely at ease. We were impressed by their patience and flexibility throughout our wedding weekend, ensuring that every moment was captured perfectly. They were more than up for the challenge of taking our photos at a ping-pong bar, and we absolutely loved how open and creative they were in capturing such a unique setting! They exceeded our expectations in every possible way, delivering stunning wedding photos that we will cherish forever. Tati and Roman truly made our wedding weekend unforgettable, and we highly recommend them to anyone in search of beautiful wedding photos. Their expertise and genuine care for their clients shine through in every shot!
