Hi, I’m Andrea! a Latina wedding film photographer based in NJ/NYC. With 7 years in portrait photography and 2 years dedicated to weddings, I’m passionate about capturing love stories. Weddings inspire me as they are unique moments where communities unite in pure joy and love. Being part of the LGBTQI+ community, I ensure my space is safe and welcoming for all marriers.

My husband Kevin and I were looking for an elopement photographer in Cary, NC. It was a challenge to find the right person as we needed someone who's bilingual (Spanish and English). Candy is a wonderful person and photographer. She made us feel so comfortable, specially my husband who is ex-military and is a little bit of an introvert. I am so thankful for her talent as she was able to capture the perfect moments. The quality and artistic style of her photos are out of this world.

I will be happy to capture a special moment on your special day. With pleasure and enthusiasm, I am always ready for new adventures & challenges.

Awarded Best of Zola
Julia is truly the BEST photographer out there and she makes everyone look SO GOOD!! We booked her for both our engagement session and our wedding because we loved her so much! She is so skillful at finding beautiful angles and working with natural lighting, and she was great at directing us with suggested poses that didn’t look forced or unnatural. She was also really easy to work with: we met up beforehand to communicate our vision and discuss the kinds of photographs that we wanted for the engagement session and we did that again for our wedding. On our wedding day Julia brought her husband Leo who is also a photographer to assist her and they came early in the morning to begin taking scenery photos, details, and other things while the rest of us got ready. She was there with us throughout the entire day all the way til the end of the evening and she went out with us to take some sunset photos in the middle of the reception, which turned out so beautifully! Finally, Julia was super prompt at sending us the final photographs, which I know she worked hard on because there were A LOT! We can tell that Julia truly enjoys what she does and really wants to get the best photos possible so she always goes above and beyond. I think the phenomenal photos that we’re sharing here can speak for themselves. She was such a joy to work with and we can’t wait to find some other excuse to hire her again!!

Hey there! My partner Emilio and I have been shooting together for over 5 years. I personally shot my first wedding back in 2010! We're an LGBT owned company and we are so so so passionate about making sure everyone feels represented in a sometimes white-washed straight appearing industry, we love inclusivity. Our main goal is you having the best stress-free and FUN wedding photo/video experience.

Christian and Emilio worked together seamlessly our entire wedding - they were never obtrusive, always smiling, and seemed to be magically in the right places at the right times. They made our entire crew feel so comfortable, from our families to our guests. Their relaxed, positive, chill vibes set the tone for an amazing day. We also loved our engagement shoot - the photos are so charming and it was a comfortable shoot (despite my now-husband and I being so nervous in front of the camera)!

Being the daughter of first-generation immigrants, I saw how precious photos become in life. Some photos are the only tangible connection we have to a person or place that is dearly missed. Thanks to my dad, I was introduced to the world of photography the same day I was introduced to the world. Because of my parents, our memories growing up are preserved. When I was 6, I received my own camera, marking the beginning of a lifelong dedication to documenting every aspect of my life.

I had a small wedding at home and she was there early in the morning and took photos of the entire day. She was taking photos to make my day memorable and focused on the details that I am so grateful she was able to capture. She photographed my family members too and made me feel beautiful on my day. I sometimes get awkward in front of cameras but she made me feel comfortable and I would for sure book her again when given the chance. I highly recommend. She’s very understanding of different cultures and made sure to capture those moments that made my day special. She edits beautifully and she also sent a flash drive in a beautifully presented box. I loved it. Her attention to detail is impeccable and you can tell she loves what she does. So grateful that my sister discovered her. Nicole was absolutely amazing.

Working with Rich as the videographer for our small intimate wedding was an absolute dream. He was transparent with pricing and services offered. Response time was extremely quick and his availability to talk when I had questions was very flexible. On the day of Rich put everyone at ease. We had an intimate 25 person wedding and I was worried a professional videographer would overpower the atmosphere but he was able to blend into the background while also being right there to capture everything. He was also super helpful the whole day and I really appreciated the extra above and beyond effort he put in to help things run smoothly. The videos and stills we received back left me speechless they were so beautiful and he was able to translate the inspiration I sent in his own way and perfectly capture the day.

The quality of the photos and video is just astounding that it was way better than I had expected. I was looking for a certain vibe and they fit the bill. Some things to note: 1. They respond in a timely manner. Well-organized. 2. Very sweet couple who will make you feel very special during your special day. 3. Outgoing personalities that’ll help you feel more comfortable being in front of the camera. 4. Again, the QUALITY of the photos and videos. I can’t stress this enough. They go above and beyond. And capture your day in a way that it feels like a dream. I am immensely satisfied with their work. If I were given the chance to do it all over again, I’d choose MC Visuals every time.

I'm in love with human emotions, either it's laughing till it hurts or tears of happiness. When your man hugs you so strong, that you can't breathe or when your dad is crying (for the first time in his life!) listening to your vows at the altar. I do believe, that these un-staged moments are more meaningful than classy portraits on a sunset (but no worries, you'll plenty of both!) If you feel like we are on the same page - let's talk! Write me a few words about who you are, tell me your story and let's create something beautiful together!

We've had our first love story photoshoot with her this spring. Both of us were so shy and new to this, but Dasha not only made us feel comfortable but also be ourselves! All the posing and picture ideas, we didn't have to worry about. And finally, the pictures came out amazing! We were so happy with the photoshoot process and the photos that we knew we wanted her to be our wedding photographer. Dasha was with us from early morning till almost midnight and we couldn't be happier! I even felt like she was one of my bridesmaids and closest friends, always helping around and making me feel less nervous! We just got our wedding pictures a few days back and we just wanted to share them all at once! We're very happy with our choice!! Thank You Dasha for everything!

Hi! I'm Chrissy. I've been lucky enough to photograph weddings and meet tons of awesome couples since 2014. I'm based in Boston, MA but I'm always more than happy to travel anywhere your adventure takes you. My work has brought me as far as Tokyo and I'm so ready to explore more new places! In my down time I love to surf, paint, go to concerts, and watch horror movies. I'm full of useless astrology facts and I always have extra snacks with me.

One of the easiest people to talk to and work with. We gave her some general guidance of what we wanted and she managed to capture it all and more. To top it all off she took absolutely the best picture of my wife that exists hands down.

Nelson and his team photographed our May wedding in Plattekill, NY and the experience was absolutely extraordinary! They were professional while also personable making the experience very relaxed and natural. Prior to the big day, Nelson was very communicative and helped design a schedule meeting my interests of different shots and perfected the timing. On the day of, Nelson and his team eased right in without a hitch bouncing from one location to the next and corralling us and family seamlessly while staying on time. There wasn't a single moment of concern or stress during photos! Now to gush about the product!! Nelson and his team caught the most PERFECT moments. My husband and I expressed early on that we preferred candid or organic shots and not so much the typical couple poses. And I must say, Nelson got it right! It brought us right back to the day when we were looking through the huge inventory of shots. Brought tears of joy and gratitude. Lets not forget the video!! My GOD!! It was truly an emotionally provoking video and definitely a fan favorite with family. To Nelson and his team, Dave and I couldn't be happier with all your hard work. We will cherish the moments you captured for a lifetime!

I reached out to Stef a couple of days before my last-minute City Hall ceremony scheduled for 9:30am on a Friday. That’s too early and too last-minute for many wedding photographers, but Stef was such a great sport. She took a few posed photos of the group then followed us on a walk up the Bowery and through Chinatown to get to our brunch spot, snapping fantastic documentary-style photos all along the way. We wanted to remember the moment for what it was, without staging shots. The photos were exactly what we hoped for.

I've had a camera in my hand since I was a kid. My mom was a wedding photographer also. I spend my days taking photos because it inspires me and fills me with joy. To me, there is nothing better than capturing a beautiful moment. I have photographed weddings all over the US TX, NY and the Hudson Valley, the East Coast, as well as in Europe, the Caribbean, & Hawaii. A few more things about me… I love the ocean, traveling, exploring, hiking, dancing, the change of seasons, the outdoors, sunrises, sunsets, walking without a destination, that few minutes of magical golden light before the sun sets, life… and telling stories with photographs.

You need to book Kim whether it be for an event or photoshoot because you will not be disappointed!!! I recently got married at Windham Manor and was only looking for photographers who have photographed there. I found Kim since she was one of the photographers tagged on the venue’s instagram page. Kim was very responsive from the beginning and although i was still a year and a half away from my wedding, we scheduled a zoom call and started planning immediately. The call was very productive as she helped me generate a timeline super early in the game that helped me start planning and getting everything in order with my other vendors. She also showed me photos she had already taken at the venue which were stunning and exactly what we envisioned. Come to the big day, Kim was there early to set up and was ready to go immediately. She let me know her plan along the way and made sure that we were sticking to the timeline and had no problem being able to quickly adjust to things that were not under our control. Either way, everything ran so smoothly thanks to her, including helping me button my extremely difficult dress!! She honestly acted like a friend and was there for us the entire night while also being able to capture everything we wanted. I knew the photos were going to be amazing but she totally exceeded our expectations. She sent some teasers the day after and we were completely blown away by the colors, angles, and backdrops. You can tell that she put so much time into each photo because every single one is stunning. Not to mention, she took soooo many photos and really captured everything from start to finish. We are so grateful to have so many pictures that we can have for a lifetime. Everyone I have shared the photos with have said the same exact thing I worked with a few photographers in my life and I have to say that Kim was the best. Her talent and professionalism is unmatched. I seriously hope we can work with her again one day!!

Hi! My name is Melissa, and I have been photographing weddings since 2009. I know wedding planning can be stressful, so my goal is to make this part of your wedding stress-free! I am going to provide you with beautiful images full of emotion that will also bring you right back to that moment when you view them. If you are looking for stunning images that feel effortless, from a photographer that feels like a friend, then I am your photographer! Each wedding inspires me to tell your story through photography. I also take great pride in the editing process. I truly enjoy turning the photographs into genuine works of art.

Melissa photographed our May 2022 wedding, and I would definitely recommend her! We first contacted Melissa after a friend referred us to her.  Melissa was consistently communicative, agile, and punctual throughout the entire process.  Her vibe aligned exactly with what we were seeking, it became clear that we had found a great match, both in terms of style and personality. The quality and style of her images stood out in a crowd of wedding photographers. We were looking for a candid-style wedding photographer with a relaxed style that’s both modern and timeless.   The connection and ease we found with her shows through in the final product.  Melissa’s eye for detail is astounding, and beyond her technical expertise, she is a joy to work with.  We have the most beautiful and unrushed photos from our magical, big day.  If you’re looking for a cheap photographer, Melissa definitely isn’t the one for you. But if you value photography and want someone who is a master of their craft and a true professional all-round, look no further.  Plus, she offers something that not all photographers can – true artistry.  Our wedding photos are completely unique to us and our event, we framed a print that hangs over our couch and receives frequent compliments. We also purchased a fine art album which is quite simply a work of art. We will cherish these photos forever. Thank you, Melissa Marx Photography!

Hi there! I'm Nia, a wedding and elopement photographer based in Boston, MA but obsessed with traveling. I love the days when I stumble upon a new landscape, learn something new from a stranger or aimlessly drive until I end up somewhere decent. This is why I love storytelling. My favorite stories to tell are by far the love shared between two people. Storytelling and making a moment last is what drew me to photography. Documenting your day in an honest, soulful way that shows who you are is what I strive for.

We recently had the pleasure of working with Nia for our wedding, and we couldn't be happier with our experience. From the moment we met her, her easy-going nature put us at ease. She made us feel comfortable and genuinely connected with us. We are both somewhat camera shy and she made the entire process from our engagement photos to our wedding SO fun. We wanted our event captured candidly and she truly did that. The turnaround time for our sneak peak photos was impressively fast and they exceeded our expectations. Each photo beautifully captured the emotions of the day, and we loved that they felt authentic and true to us. If you're looking for a photographer who is personable, communicative, and delivers stunning work, we wholeheartedly recommend Nia.

I've had a camera in my hands for as long as I can remember; I used it like a pocket journal of sorts and photographed constantly while growing up in Hawai'i. I fell into weddings when my dad remarried in 2013, and I remember being caught off guard by the swirl of emotions I felt standing at the edge of a new beginning. Turning those feelings into tangible memories was the only thing that made sense. I moved to New York City to refine my skillset and took a detour into the fashion industry before receiving my Bachelor's in photography from NYU.

Natalie is an absolutely amazing, fun, and talented photographer and human being. We loved having her!! 10/10 y’all!! She is so talented that she shoots in both film and digital! She was so kind and patient with us throughout the day even though we were running behind and we both had LARGE families that love having photos taken. She was so patient throughout all the iterations of family photos and didn’t rush us at all but also got the day moving. She was calm and she checked in on us to make sure we were ok. When we felt stressed, she assured us everything was going to be alright and that we had time. I can’t stress how huge this was! I think this shows that she’s not just an incredible photographer but also an amazing human being who cares about her clients. And of course beyond that, we LOVE our photos! There are truly TOO Many good ones to choose from. She was absolutely a star and we loved working with her so much. She got the needed family shots but also got some really cool artistic fashion shots too! AND on top of that, photos of details that were honestly very carefully chosen out. And it made us so happy that she caught that and documented it. For example, the tea ceremony teapot and cups were a long adventure to find and hold significance for us. She just does it all folks. She’s amazing and I am so glad we had her for our engagement shoot and our big day. We love you Natalie! Thank you for everything!

Hiya, I am Vital (pronounces Vee-tal), and I am a 20 something guy with a camera in my hands and a cheerful smile. I have been a wedding photographer since 2016, and every year I fall even more in love with my job. My fiancee and I have a dog and a cat. We love to travel domestically and abroad, and I can't imagine life without photos. I enjoy reading or listening to books, especially novels and biographies. Alpine climbing, backpacking, and road-tripping are among my hobbies too. There is more to my life story on my website :)

Awarded Best of Zola
There were so many great things about working with Vital that I hardly know where to start. We booked him through Zola after going through an overwhelming number of photographers’ portfolios— many beautiful pictures, but none of them felt like “us”. My husband and I are both camera shy and felt very strongly that we didn’t want to spend the whole day posing; Vital completely understood and delivered. From the first communications, he made us feel heard, understood, and supported. We met him for a small engagement shoot in our neighborhood to get acquainted before the big day, and he even brought a Polaroid camera after hearing our first photo together was a Polaroid— just an extremely thoughtful and personal touch that really encapsulates the way Vital works. Leading up to the wedding he was incredibly easy to get in touch with, even sending us questionnaires to understand exactly what we hoped to get out of our day (and what we like about each other as partners). I left feeling like he really wanted to understand US and deliver the photos WE wanted— versus some stock lineup of pictures you’d expect at a wedding. On the day of the wedding he showed up early, was totally prepared, and got to work without instruction. My husband and I were able to relax, soak in the memories, and completely forget a photographer was even there. And the results! He delivered our previews within days, had the full gallery ready in weeks, and the photos were gorgeous. He captured so many little moments that I would’ve otherwise missed. He got so many wonderful candid shots of us, our families, and our friends. Each picture is packed with feeling and energy. It was more than we could’ve dreamed of, and we’ve looked at them over and over since they were delivered. Getting the right photographer for your wedding is a huge decision, but if I had it to do over again I’d book Aesthetic Sabotage without question.

Hi, my name is Ryan, thanks for checking out my work! I am very passionate about photography and I am extremely fortunate to make a living doing it! I’ve held a camera in my hands almost all my life, but I’ve been a professional NJ wedding photographer since 2005. Getting married? I’d love to be a part of your day! After capturing hundreds of weddings in the NJ area, there are very few venues that I’m not familiar with, chances are I’ve been to yours multiple times! I’m also available for engagement shoots, portraits, head shots, and family photos.

We absolutely loved working with Ryan. He was wonderful and he made us look amazing. He really knows photography and his love for the craft shows. We had an engagement shoot and our wedding photos with him. He is so much fun to work with. We were nervous for our engagement shoot and he showed us how to pose, how to stand, chose really great spots, and the hours just flew by. Then when we got the pictures back, we knew we made the right choice. I didn’t think I could look so beautiful. My husband loved his composition, creativity, and professionalism. For the wedding, Ryan was fun to work with, flexible, and made us both look like a prince and princess. We asked him to do 2 nerdy photos for us (sailor moon for the bride and bridesmaids and Green Lantern Core for the groom and groomsmen) and they turned out AMAZING. We’re now having trouble choosing which photos to frame because they all looked great. If you need an amazing wedding photographer with a fun, professional personality, and who will make sure you turn out great in every shot, and knows how to throw in a little extra something magical, go with Ryan. I hope we can work with him again.
