Dear Heart Film + Portraits 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Durham, PA

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!!

I started my business in the beginning of 2019 while living in North Carolina. What I thought was just going to be a part time hobby, turned into something much much more.

Elizabeth Russell Photography 

5.0

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $1,900
  • Serves Durham, PA

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!

Hi! I'm Emily! Mom to 3 kids, two rats named Frodo and Sam and a bearded dragon. I like my couples like I like my pets - just slightly unconventional. Dress fluffer, timeline-keeper, family wrangler, prone to squealing over a perfect ray of sunshine- I'll dance with your grandma, cry during your vows, and make you laugh at inappropriate moments. You're a badass and deserve the space to express yourself and your love EXACTLY as you are, no holds barred. Say goodbye to not knowing what to do with your hands, fake smiles in photos, and stiff posing that *just doesn't feel like you*. LGBTQIA+ and looking for a safe vendor? I gotchu!

Emily did our engagement and wedding photos. She was easy going, flexible, professional, and helped us feel comfortable with her :) Our wedding happened right at the height of the covid pandemic and Emily was very accommodating in that unique situation.

Working with William was one of the best decisions I made. He was always super responsive and my wedding photos exceeded my high expectations. What I love about William is how easy going he is. Not all photographers are like this, but he really made my day stress free while still capturing amazing photos. My parents commented on how well he seemed to know who everyone was and focus in on them throughout the day. He made sure to get every single photo on my shot list and I really couldn't be more satisfied with how the photos came out. Book him for your wedding. He is so nice and amazing at what he does.

Having your memories documented is truly one of the most important things. When we look back on our lives we are the sum of our experiences and being able to share that journey with your present and future family is such a gift.

I found Vicki on Instagram quite a while ago. I can’t recall how I stumbled across her page… but man am I so glad I did. As soon as I saw her work I knew she had to be my photographer. I didn’t care the distance or cost - her photos were that stunning and that different - I absolutely needed her. We had a virtual meet and greet and we just clicked from the start. She got my vibe. And I’d like to think we fit her vibe! Little fact not many people know, we picked our wedding date based on Vicki’s availability! We quickly booked her and scheduled our engagement shoot. She traveled all the way from Lebanon PA to asbury park NJ for this shoot! We had such a fun time with Vicki, she made us comfortable and let us act like ourselves. The photos we got back were gorgeous yet moody - just what I was looking for. She nailed. Fast forward to the wedding, her and her assistant were phenomenal. I trusted vicki so much based on what I’ve seen her do, that I gave her absolutely no direction. She took the wheel and did her thing. She even went out of her way and captured moments of our children that were just so incredible. Literally the cutest thing you will ever see. Everything she did, everything she took were beyond my expectations. The look and feel of my photos is so unique, no other photographer can successfully do what she does. I wish Vicki lived closer so we can use her for all our little milestones! We may have to travel to her for something in the future! Vicki was everything and gave us something unique to look at to always remember our day. Photos are your memories, theyre something you will have forever. You want a master of their craft to be there on your big day. Vicki was that. Snatch her up quick. You won’t regret it! Thank you vicki!

Hello! I'm a wedding photographer based in South Jersey. I take a candid and lifestyle approach when shooting, utilizing natural light and looking for those moments when my subjects are laughing rather than posing. I was married in the Spring of 2016 and I know wedding planning is both really fun and super stressful, and that the moment you see your photos is almost as special as the one when you walk down the aisle. That’s why I make it a goal to be the easiest vendor you’ll hire, and why I work hard to capture images that will bring tears of joy to your eyes. A wedding is one day, but your photos are forever.

The best decision I made for our wedding was hiring Ashlee as our photographer! She got back to my emails quickly and communicated well throughout the time leading up to our wedding. Our pictures were the most important part for me. I was 100% confident in my decision simply from our engagement pictures Ashlee took. She actually got my husband to loosen up, smile, and have fun while taking pictures. Our wedding day was no different. She had us laughing and playing around, and she truly captured our love and fun. The entire wedding party and our parents kept saying how amazing Ashlee and her second photographer, Taylor, were. They both worked so well together and with our party. They captured all the groups of people I wanted, and all of the other images I wanted as well, such as the details of everything I made for the wedding (flowers, centerpieces, signs) and specific shots of us around the venue. Ashlee even captured moments I had no idea she was there for which I love. We got our pictures back really fast. All of them are gorgeous. I can't stop looking at them! They aren't just staged poses. They're fun, loving, and most importantly, real. Ashlee's pictures show your true personality and capture the moments you never want to forget for the rest of your lives. I can relive every part of that day thanks to Ashlee and her incredible photography. It'll be the best decision you make, too!

We're Jeannie and Jesse Lytle, a Pennsylvania based husband + wife photography team for laid-back, joy-filled couples! When we’re not behind the camera you can find us in our kitchen whipping up something delicious, doing renovations on our 93 year old home, or planning our next trip. No matter where we are, I can promise that you’ll find a cup of coffee in our hands and our music, (typically a weird mix between Eminem, John Mayer + Journey), turned all the way up.

There are no words to describe how incredible Jeannie and Jesse are. First, they are the nicest and kindest people. I have truly loved all pictures captured by Jeannie and Jesse. From our engagement shoot to our wedding day, they were incredibly helpful and responsive. Not to mention, Jeannie is a superwoman and sent us sneak peeks from our wedding day before we went to sleep the day of our wedding AND had a mini gallery a week after the wedding AND sent us the full gallery 3 weeks after the wedding. They are truly in love with what they do and it’s evident in their incredible work. We are so thankful we booked them and had them capture our most special day.

I like to take a natural approach to photographing weddings with a mix of being inconspicuous but also there to help direct when needed. My goal is to have it feel like I’m another friend celebrating the day with you that happens to make the wedding run smoothly and takes beautiful photographs. I love spending the day laughing and smiling together as you marry your best friend.

I love working with Abbey! She is so lighthearted and fun! Her clients have a blast with her! She is very professional and she is quick on her feet which is important when your a photographer! She is great at assessing an area and finding the best light and background to take pictures! I always say a great photographer makes me (the videographer) look good! And she makes my videos look amazing! I definitely recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing photographer who has an even more amazing personality!

Hi!!! My name is Joel and I’m a wedding and portrait photographer in Central Pennsylvania. Although I’m based out of Harrisburg, I love to travel to Pittsburgh, Philly, Baltimore, DC, New York and beyond! I’m married to my amazing wife Kristin who typically works along side me at weddings and is almost as goofy as I am (almost). We have a border collie named Oreo who has more energy than the two of us combined! I’m a Netflix junkie (which is perfect to watch while I spend countless hours editing photos) and I quote movies and TV shows all the time. Try to stump me with a movie quote, it can’t be done ;)

Joel was a pleasure to work with and my favorite vendor at my wedding! He did our engagement photos and wedding photos and we loved both sets of pictures. He is a very natural photographer who knows what he is doing. He works hard to make everyone around him feel comfortable with his infectious personality. Also the day of the wedding can be crazy by Joel is very calm and worked well with the venue and other vendors to make sure everything ran smoothly. He was always very upfront about his processes and cost and was very affordable! My favorite part was all his packages gave you 8 hours of wedding photography minimum. Not all photographers do this. He really knows how to capture the love and fun between you and your partner. I highly recommend to use Joel Photography for your wedding day! I am so glad we did and hope to us Joel in our future family photos.

I want to cover your day in a way that highlights the joy and sincerity that surrounds you and the people you love. Some emotions are unbridled, but most are nuanced and fleeting. When you look back at your set of images, I want you to be transported back to that day and to have those feelings rekindled. My role is to be an observer and a listener. The less time I spend interrupting, the more time I can spend watching, waiting, and capturing the moments that should be remembered. If I’m there to record it, it’ll be without printed pages from other photographers you’d like to see imitated. I'll be there as me – and I’ll be capturing you.

My search for a wedding photographer was pretty much a full time job. In fact, it was harder finding a wedding photographer than it was finding a man I wanted to marry. After spending hours and hours searching for the perfect wedding photographer, a google search found me Katie and I knew I had to work with her. From day 1 she was so easy to work with and was willing to work with me on my budget. I was extremely particular when it came to my photos and from the engagement photos to the wedding photos, she really hit it out of the park without me having to describe every little thing. The photos invoked the emotion/feeling I wanted from them and I particularly was wowed by her black and white photos. She clearly knows what she's doing and was able to work efficiently and work around a ton of sudden changes. I was a bundle of nerves on my wedding day and really valued her calm, peaceful demeanor. She truly has an extraordinary style and eye for photography and she's my #1 recommendation for brides looking for timeless wedding photos that transcend what's trending today. We've since worked with her for family photos and she wowed us once again. Honestly I'd have her photograph every momentous occasion of my life if I could. If you go through her portfolio you'll see all different styles of weddings but each photo is stunning. God forbid if I ever have another wedding, partnering with Katie is a no-brainer.

Take it from us... marriage is not all sunshine and rainbows, but when looking back on photos and videos from your day, you'll remember the love you had from the beginning... not all the other "fluff." Being able to work together as a husband and wife team has been an amazing journey, but growing this company and establishing a trustworthy and talented group of creatives to serve our couples has become really important to us . We value the relationship you have and your love is all that matters. That's all that's left after the wedding anyway... and your photos and videos too of course.

Kristen and Christian and their team are wonderful!! From our engagement photos to the wedding day everything was just easy with them. They don’t bring crazy bulky equipment that gets in the way, we hardly even noticed they were there which was so nice when you just want to twirl around all night. The photos speak for themselves, they’re everything we hoped for, and we even got our sneak preview pics the next day which the family loved!!! Our wedding day was dark (December) and poured rain the whole time and yet the photos are crystal clear and oh so stunning. We chose Dearly Beloved because they do a great job in darker settings and they did not disappoint! To any bride in a twinkle lit setting, these are your photographers.

Hello there! I’m Barbara, a photographer based in Hainesport, NJ. I began my career as a photographer over 15 years ago, transitioning from graphic design, and absolutely fell in love with telling stories about people. I strive to keep your wedding day, relaxed and fun to capture your unique personalities. When I’m not taking pictures, you can find me checking out the latest Marvel film at the movies, marathon reading, eating dark chocolate, or spoiling my Sam cat totally rotten!

Barbara Wentzel and her assistant did the photography for our wedding and we could not be more pleased. They were completely professional and were available to meet and communicate about the details of the wedding in advance of the event. I love how, during the wedding reception, she put up a laptop showing a slideshow of the photos that had already been taken that day for guests to see. That was a thoughtful touch and our guests loved it. I explained the "feel" we wanted for our photos and she totally hit the mark! I highly recommend.

I just want you to know that I' believe in magic. I also believe in cherishing every beautiful, fleeting tick of time. While portraits are wonderful in their own way, my favorite photos are always the candids. The precious moments between moments. That, my friend, is where the magic lives. I see the glances that mean so much more than they seem, and so does my lens. I am so eternally grateful to get to spend my life cherishing those beautiful moments with you. xoxo Debbie

Lucky Thirteen was the first and only photography vendor we looked into for our wedding, and knew instantly we wanted them to be a part of our day! Deb is so much fun to work with, and let us do whatever crazy ideas we wanted as well as helping us brainstorm new ones. Me and my husband don’t like being in front of the camera, but Deb was so chill and easy to work with and made us feel so relaxed. Our engagement photos and wedding photos turned out amazing!!

Lee Smathers Photography, LLC is based in Tenafly, New Jersey and specializes in wedding photography. Owner Lee Smathers has over 25 years of experience in the field. Lee uses this experience to create magical imagery for each couple’s magical day. After 15 years of teaching photography and design in South Korea, Lee came back to the United States in search of even more creative opportunities.

Lee was probably the best hire for my wedding day, and he had some awesome competition! He was receptive to ideas and made all of the photos I wanted happen while also knowing what shots to get that we didn’t think of. I was also incredibly pleasantly surprised when he gave me well over the promised 20-30 sneak peeks way before the one week that was promised in his contract. There were so many amazing shots included in the sneak peeks, we can’t pick a favorite and cannot wait to see the rest!

Hi, I am a multi-cultural wedding photographer, with a taste for bold and vibrant imagery, authentic moments and a dash of glamor. Emotions drive my passion for the art form, and human connections guide me. Born and raised in another hemisphere, I have traveled since. Everywhere I went, my camera allowed me to capture the story behind the people I met & the cultures I observed. I bring the same drive to my wedding photography, where every couple, every family, and all the cultures and traditions I come across, have a different story to tell, and I have the privilege to witness and capture it all!

Abhi is incredibly great to work with! Super professional and always fun. I love his creativity and he communicates really well; which I can appreciate.
