Jose Almeida Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,700
  • Serves Effort, PA

Weddings are celebrations that are full of emotion and romance all in a highly dynamic environment. Wedding photographs are timeless and irreplaceable so as a photographer, I feel I have a great responsibility at hand. I try my best to work with clients on their needs, provide flexible coverage hours and I work within their budgets. I am drawn to those unguarded candid moments. I attempt to portray an artistic feel that reveals feelings of emotion onto the viewer. Be it a gaze, a beaming smile, tears of joy or a blurred image to depict movement my goal is communication. It is these moments along with many others I feel should be captured.

Jose is fantastic! He has so much experience and very professional. Before our wedding day, he always had quick and clear communication. We loved his artistic eye and dramatic style of photography. He knows how to give good direction for those that aren’t used to posing or being photographed, and was always looking for the next shot. He definitely lets you be you and can still get amazing shots. We were surprised at how quickly we got to preview our gallery. After the wedding day, I realized that there was so much I didn’t get to document personally to remember the details from that day. But after seeing some of the shots, Jose had made me so happy to see how much he documented from the day! I highly recommend Jose :)

My name is Evelína, and I was born in Slovakia. Growing up, I found joy in nature, books, history, and fairytales, which still inspire my "less is more" approach to photography. I cherish castle ruins, forests, wildflower fields, and the emotions tied to folklore and romance. Now living in Northeast Pennsylvania's beautiful Poconos Mountains, I’m a mom of two amazing kids who helped me realize my passion for photography is more than a hobby—it's my calling. This vocation allows me to express my creativity and connect with others, making it the only job I'll ever want.

I knew immediately that I needed Evelína to be my photographer. Her work is so beautiful and everything I saw was exactly what I wanted. Working with Evelína and her team was an absolute pleasure. She communicates openly and consistently, answered all our questions, and truly delivered magic on our day. Almost a year later (!!) and all our friends and family STILL talk about how amazing, kind, and talented Evelína is, and how beautiful our photos are. I 100% recommend her, not only for her photography, but for her and her team’s phenomenal personalities. Not only will you love your photos, you’ll feel like the people behind the camera really want to make it magical! Truly they felt like longtime friends and everything was natural, lots of laughs and fun all around!

Hi, I'm Sophia, a 26-year-old wedding photographer based just outside DC in NoVA. Capturing love stories through my lens is not just a job but a profound joy that I cherish with every wedding I photograph. It's been six years and I've photographed close to 100 weddings which seems unreal! The photography gene runs in my family, my great-grandfather had his own photography studio in Panama and from there, knowledge of photography was passed down through the generations of my family to me. I believe in always having fun and prioritizing an stress-free lifestyle which translates into my photography style — vibrant, authentic, and joyful.

Her passion for her work is most deeply connected to the process of telling people’s stories through photographs. Most of Daniela's work centers around the human experience, our shared existence, and the quest for revealing the truest form of each person that she documents.

Awarded Best of Zola
Dani and I have known each other for 15 years, which is wild within itself. I’ve watched her photography journey for a long long time. Which is why the second we got engaged I KNEW we would hire her. We had an engagement shoot, as well as an “our day” vow shoot. Let me tell you, my husband and I are very much “guide us and we’ll follow” people. We’re indecisive, we’re go with the flow people, and that’s not always easy to work with. Dani from day one has guided us and taken care of EVERYTHING. From giving us options/ideas and brainstorming, to nailing the plans in place once we decided what we wanted to do. We had our vow day shoot in the Dolomites in Italy. Sebastian and I have never traveled like that together and Dani literally planned everything including what hike we were taking and timelined everything out. Which is exactly what we explained we needed and were looking for when working with her. She took everything we wanted and what we explained we wanted each experience to be like, and she nailed it. Nailed the photos. Nailed the locations. Nailed being an all around fantastic and easy person to work with. She also stayed in contact with us throughout the entire 2 years we have been planning together. She was our cheerleader, our planner, our listening ear, without a doubt I would recommend her to everyone and anyone. Not to mention these photos are to die for, and everyone is obsessed!

I specialize in weddings and elopements, especially non-traditional, LGBTQ+, and multicultural celebrations. I am the 'picnic elopement in the woods' or 'weekend campsite celebration' or 'screw it, let's get married at a Waffle House' photographer.

Awarded Best of Zola
First let me say, I cannot believe that Maya only has a handful of reviews on here because they are AMAZING! They were by far my favorite vendor for our September wedding and well worth the investment. From day 1, Maya was fantastic! They truly became our friend and not just our photographer for our wedding. From the little things that Maya remembered, to the sweet emails and messages we received for over a year while planning. They helped with our timeline, they helped keep the day flowing and made everyone feel so comfortable in front of the camera. We unfortunately were not able to do a engagement session with Maya, but somehow Maya made us feel like we've known them for years. If you want the personal touch, Maya is the perfect photographer for you! Maya is so professional, inclusive to all and by far our best wedding decision (besides marrying each other). We received so many compliments from family and friends about how impressed they were with Maya! Maya truly has found her calling and has the perfect eye for photography. The photos we have are so vibrant and perfect in every way! We cannot wait to relive the most magical day with all of the photos from Maya and her partner Michael. Hire them! You will not regret it!!

From helicopter elopements and lakeside wedding bashes to hiking engagements to weddings with bouncy houses, I capture the adventurous, quirky, and unique. Based in both New York + California, with travel worldwide, I've photographed couples on 6 continents. My creative, fun, & candid photography uses innovative techniques and unique ideas to get photos that make you look twice. Whether you're saying vows in your backyard or having a 3-day adventure wedding in the rainforest, I'll catch every spontaneous moment of joy and laughter—and plan a few unique shots on top of it all.

We cannot recommend Kathryn enough! First (and most obvious) (and also most important) point is that the photos she took were incredible. She captured our night beautifully. More than that though, she captured how the night felt. The photos weren't overly posy, but rather showed off how much fun and excitement there was for the entire night. I think one of the best things I can say about Kathryn is that she really made a point of figuring out HOW we wanted her to photograph the wedding and delivered. As I wrote above, we wanted the photographs to look great, but mostly just capture how the wedding felt and she delivered on that 100%. Also, as much as she made sure we were leading all the decision making, she really knew her stuff and took things off of our plate where we could. We knew how we wanted the photos to look generally, but neither of us are photographers. So we talked to her about style and vibe and she really took it from there. She was an absolute professional, a great person to work with, and kind and caring. We felt like we were in great hands every step of the way. Truly cannot recommend her enough.

Hi, I’m Lauren, the owner of Lauren Katherine Creative, and I’m passionate about capturing the magic of weddings. I’ve always been drawn to photography, ever since childhood, when I fell in love with the art of storytelling through images. Now, I get to do what I love most—helping couples turn their vision into lasting memories. My goal is to make everyone feel relaxed and comfortable in front of the camera, so I can capture those authentic, meaningful moments. With a background in film, I bring a creative, cinematic touch to every shot, making sure your wedding photos reflect the beauty and emotion of your special day.

We are so so so happy that we booked Lauren for our wedding day. She and Julianna (second shooter) were so incredible. They made us feel so comfortable and did a great job at keeping everyone on track. We just got our sneak peek back and they are so much better than we even imagined. We couldn’t be happier that we chose Lauren as our photographer.

Speed date: I love to go thrifting. Schitt’s Creek and HIMYM are two TV shows always on repeat. I really hate cooking. I love brunch and drink way too much coffee. I’m a mom and I’m obsessed with my kid. Words of affirmation & physical touch are my love languages. I have the WORST sense of direction. I try to always do my part to protect our environment. Aries is my zodiac sign. I’m Irish + Greek. I drink coffee like it keeps me alive. Taking a walk is the best way to spend a warm day. Like a true millennial, I have way too many houseplants. Greece, Ireland and Italy are at the top of my travel bucket-list.

The best decision of my entire wedding and maybe life was choosing Tara as my photographer!!! I cannot say enough amazing things about her work, it makes me want to cry thinking about the amazing experience I had with her from start to finish! She is a one of kind person and photographer. She made every dream and vision of mine come to life, from my engagement photo shoot to the day of my wedding I was in the best possible hands. She made my husband and I feel so comfortable and at ease on our wedding day. Our venue gave us a rushed time frame for pictures on site and Tara eased all of our anxiety with her expertise and personality. I will be hiring Tara for every major event in my life from here on out!! I would do it 10000 times over and I'm so happy I get to look back on these incredible pictures and moments that she was able to capture. I wish I could share them all on here so everyone could get the full effect! Not a single picture I don't love.

Awarded Best of Zola
Just gonna start this off by saying... KYLEE IS HANDS DOWN THE BEST!! From the beginning of wedding planning, my husband(who before meeting Kylee was a little nervous and shy about the whole "photoshoot" thing) and I wanted someone relaxing yet energized, fun, unique and colorful. Someone who would highlight the special parts of us and our relationship! Someone who would help us to remember this chapter of our lives in the most beautiful way. Kylee is literally those things!! She was up for anything we wanted to do at our engagement session(sharing apps and beers) or on our wedding day(burying the bourbon and no first look), never making us feel rushed or like an inconvenience! She laughed with us throughout the process and always gave advice when I asked, even if it had nothing to do with photography or weddings, LOL. I can happily say I went into this looking for a wedding vendor and ended the wedding phase of our life with a friend who we will go to take bad-a** and beautiful pictures of the big moments in our life. P.S. A great added bonus was our friends and family loved her too!

Her photos are art and she offers a number of different photography mediums to suit your style and budget. From day 1 Cauanne was engaged, often reaching out throughout the wedding planning process. She offered her advice and expertise on photography while taking to heart our desires and vision. She constantly went above and beyond, creating a personalized playlist for us, proactively reaching out and moving throughout our wedding day with expert professionalism.

Snowdrop Creative Co. was born from a dream. A dream that I could do the things that I LOVE, be present for my children and my partner, and create work that I am proud of. It sounds like what we all wish for, right? Well, it isn't always so simple as "I want this, so I'm doing it." I spent ten years in retail management. I spent long days away from my family, only to get home to them and be too tired to enjoy my time with them. My life was cold and dreary, and I knew something had to change. And so, Snowdrop was born. A place where I can create and love what I do. Capture memories and magic and joy in a single moment.

Alex photographed AND officiated our little last minute Vegas elopement and we had so much fun! She was incredibly creative and got some of the coolest shots. She even managed to capture those sweet little moments you didn’t even know you’d want photos of. She made the whole process easy, fun, STRESS FREE and made me feel beautiful on my wedding day. The photos and videos turned out amazing!!! Thank you Alex!!!!

I'm a documentarian and a storyteller at heart. I capture the most real and authentic moments I can, big or small, loud or quiet. I especially love catching moments that the couple might never get to witness except in their wedding photos. I'm based in Philly, but I'm always up for an adventure, especially one that takes me away from home.

Tracie is always my first choice for a photography colleague. She's magical--she knows where she needs to be, what to pay attention to, how I like to tell a story, and how to be an all around amazing, caring, personable human being. Her extensive background in news photojournalism gives her the ability to blend in with any crowd and has honed her visual storytelling skills. Above all, she is ethical and compassionate when approaching her subjects, and understands how to make anyone feel comfortable and cared for. Her images are always of the highest quality as well as artistic, and I know she will be able to roll with the punches with things go haywire--as they often do with live events. I would hire her in a heartbeat, and have relied on her for local and travel weddings for over a decade.

I’m a wedding and family photographer located in Newtown., PA. Like many good things in life, my love of photography took hold when I least expected it. I was living in New York, meeting new friends, and surrounded by some of the most creative and inspiring people I know. I was studying computer animation at the time, but photography was my excuse to take a break and go outside. After a few months, I knew it was what I wanted to pursue!

If you are thinking of hiring Alyssa as your photographer, DO IT! If you’re looking for a photographer who feels like a friend and that will make your day go so smoothly WHILE taking amazing photos of your day, she’s the one. Alyssa made us feel so comfortable from our first phone conference. We had an engagement shoot with her first and she was so flexible with finding a date that worked for us and our pictures came out AMAZING! She was so easy to communicate with and was open to anything we wanted to try. Her energy on the wedding day was so fun and she captured our day beautifully! We are OBSESSED with all of the photos we got from her. She also kept us on time throughout the day and made sure we got all of the shots we needed. Could not have asked for a better photographer. 10000/10
