We could rave for days about our overall experience with Laura and the end product photographs and prints we received. Laura's experience and professionalism were demonstrated pre-wedding with effective communication and outlining of expectations. She provided excellent advice which ultimately made the day of go much smoother. At the wedding and reception, we were impressed by how unimposing Laura was while still being able to capture the moments most significant to us, as well as the ones we didn't even know would be the most important to us until we saw them. When the fire alarms went off unexpectedly, she took it in stride, creating the most of the moment by placing us near the fire trucks and capturing some of the best pictures of the night. We sincerely and strongly recommend Laura for wedding photography and continue to be so grateful!

I contacted Katie 5 years ago to order a custom bouquet and boutonniere for my literary themed wedding that took place in the KC Public Library. From the first conversation I knew I had made the right choice. Katie was communicative, enthusiastic, and lovely during the entire exchange. I still have my flowers displayed in my home and they’re a beautiful memento of such a special day!

I’m so happy you are here!! I started my business 5 years ago, and photographing weddings has forever been my dream. I’ve always loved weddings and this industry because of what it means.

I love the chaos and joy of a wedding day and the importance of capturing those moments is never missed on me.

Serena is easily one of the loveliest and most down to earth people I have ever had the pleasure of working with. No matter if you’ve been modeling for ten years or never stepped foot in front of a camera before, she is your girl. Over my time modeling for Serena and continuing on to work with her, I’ve gotten to see how she is with many clients. Not only is she professional but she is fun and knows how to make someone feel comfortable in front of the camera. Serena really is an individual that cares about her clients. She doesn’t just take pictures, she takes care and captures moments that are so important to people and that they’ll remember forever.

She even curated our music playlist based on our likes and dislikes. We were going for a certain vibe, and she took all our ideas and made it happen.

McShea Photography

  • Photographer

  • Serves Manalapan, NJ

My love of photography started when I realized the happiness photographs can bring to other people, even strangers. To have the ability to capture a moment and the opportunity to catch emotions all with a single click is empowering. Whether its an intimate moment at a wedding, a subtle reaction of a newborn, or just taking life's details and turning them into art, all facets of photography appeal to me.

As a couple who doesn’t love to take photographs of ourselves, finding a great photographer was initially a daunting task for us. Luckily, we found David, who made this process simply seamless for us. David’s social media account and website clearly display his beautiful work which make every wedding look like a fairy tale. David responded to our inquiry quickly, and he was extremely thorough and organized during our initial meeting. We immediately booked him for our wedding which also included an engagement photo session. David made us feel comfortable while taking our photos. He gave us great direction and was extremely easy to work with. Our engagement photos came out beautiful, and we received them quickly. David’s organization for the wedding was stellar. He was creative, and helped make the whole day so carefree and fun. Our photos were beautiful, and really captured our love on our special day. Throughout the process, David was very professional, prompt in responding, and was happy to answer any questions we had. David was always on time for our meetings. We highly recommend David for your wedding! Out of all the stressful decisions couples have to make, this is an easy one! We are so lucky to have been able to work with him for our wedding.

I am a photo-documentary wedding photographer, specializing in capturing all the authentic and unscripted moments of your wedding day. With over 10 years of experience, I've proudly photographed hundreds (and hundreds) of weddings in NJ, NYC and destinations worldwide. Though my photography work has been published in magazines, and I've garnered my fair share of awards over the years, my proudest achievement till this day was when my youngest son finally learned how to ride a two-wheeler. I mean, c'mon: that's pretty awesome, right?

Awarded Best of Zola
Ben is the greatest. Not only is he the best photographer, he’s an absolute gentleman and one of the funniest people I have ever met. His humor gets you to relax and that’s when he goes to work. If you’re not used to posing for pictures, no worries - Ben knows what he’s doing. If you let him do what he does best, his creativity and artistic eye will capture moments that you’ll look back on and be transported right back to. He also works with his wife Karis, who is amazing and they compete to see who gets the picture of the day. I recommend him to everyone I know. If you need someone to, not only capture moments, but to make you feel confidently yourself in the photos - Ben Lau is your man.

We are painters when it comes to film. We enjoy creating love stories that poke at the heart of emotion. There’s an art to visually piecing a love story together. We have a strong eye for detail, and focus on really diving into a couples love and expressing their emotion for one another through our lens.

Awarded Best of Zola
Avec L'Amour captured our wedding in June of 2023. We went with Avec L'Amour because we really liked the style and felt the prices were extremely reasonable compared to some of the other videographers out there. We went with the package that included the highlight film and the feature-length film. The audio on the feature-length film is a little tough to hear because of all the background noise, but we were outdoors and in front of a lake, so it’s understandable. While planning for our wedding, we worked directly with John. He had great energy and seemed very prepared every time we interacted with him. However, we never met John in-person because the day before our wedding, he reached out saying he could no longer make it and would be sending a replacement instead. This was understandably very stressful, but fortunately the replacement he sent was awesome. We would have liked to know this update earlier if possible, however we know that’s not always possible, and this was our only complaint in working with him. When John sent us the footage of our wedding, we were so happy with it with the exception of one place where the audio didn’t match up, one place where suddenly the video went purple, and the fact that one of our best man’s speeches was completely left out of the highlight reel; we brought these concerns to John, and he fixed them with no hesitation in a timely manner. Though we can’t review John’s videography or wedding day presence directly, we did have a good experience with his company and would recommend it!

Hey, I’m Daniel. I’m a NY & NJ wedding photographer who incorporates fresh, contemporary techniques to create dramatic portraits for couples on their wedding day. The wedding industry is filled with incredible vendors who want nothing more than for you to have the epic wedding you’ve been dreaming of. But what if you don’t want just the classic and cookie-cutter things that this industry seems to offer? By understanding your needs and tailoring your wedding day coverage to you, I ensure that together we will create an experience that is just as fulfilling as the final image gallery.

Working with Daniel and his team was hands down the best experience I've ever had and would recommend him without any thought. Daniel is definitely a guru at his craft. During my consultation with him I explained I wanted to be relive the moment everytime I looked at my photos and he did just that. He suggested a few locations he thought would deliver what I wanted and he was right. Not only did he pay attention to the small details of the shots but he worked so well with my 2 year old whom I was nervous about cooperating during the session. THANK YOU Daniel for delivering and allowing my husband and I to relive our wedding day every time we look at out photos. This is definitely your calling.

Hello, my name is Daniel Martinez and I thank you for taking interest in my work! Photography and I go way back! I discovered my passion for it when I was fourteen years old.

My Photography style is documentary based as I aim to capture natural candid moments.

We hired Danny to take our engagement photos and we couldn't be any happier with how they turned out. Danny's eye is unmatched. We took the pictures on Danny's referral at beautiful Rockland Lake State Park around sunset. His knowledge & usage of natural lighting was truly impressive. Danny's communication throughout the shoot was flawless; he knew what to say and how to say it to catch the most amazing photos.

The Brooklyn Beats is the inaugural event/wedding band founded by music industry veteran, Jon Shiffman. Jon is best known for his live work as a drummer for Grammy winner Jack Antonoff in the bands Steel Train and Bleachers. He has toured all over the world and his drumming can be heard on various National TV Commercials, and is featured in the 2024 release of Paramount Pictures’ Mean Girls movie. Since even before leaving the touring life in 2015, Jon has been a fixture in the New York private event/wedding band scene and has been a drummer, band leader, talent booker and event producer for the biggest agencies and bands in the area.

Full disclosure, my wife and I have known Jon for a long time. He is one of the most honest, transparent, trustworthy and hard-working, and talented people I’ve ever met. Separate of that, I just simply wouldn’t trust anyone else when it comes to music for events and weddings. When Dara and I got married, Jon was producing weddings and bandleading for one of the bigger wedding band agencies in New York. Because of our trust in him and because we wanted him to be the bandleader, we hired that company for our wedding and it was the best decision we could’ve made. The party was absolutely epic!!! Our guests kept coming up to us and commenting on how the band was incredible. It was obvious that Jon was one of the main reasons why - having been a major part of their operations for several years at that point. We are absolutely ecstatic that he started The Brooklyn Beats! We know that countless parties and weddings will also agree that it was the best choice to have his team of talented and professional artists rock the house! We can’t wait to renew our vows and work with Jon again!

My name is, yensy marquez Born in the Dominican Republic where I spent my early childhood before moving to the United States at the age of 5. I have always had love for the arts and music. I spent my teenage years drawing cartoons and Japanase manga. I discovered my love for photography during my late teenage years when I got my hands on my first cellphone with a camera. I was always the go to picture person during family events and gatherings. Though they were admittedly average at the time, everyone loved them and always encouraged me to get a real camera. I finally saved up for one and never looked back.

First and foremost, they are a great band; not your typical “wedding band”. They aren’t cookie cutter (i.e. you won’t hear them playing the same songs that you hear at every wedding) and they certainly aren’t stiff. They vibe off each other and the room. They are legitimately having a fun time performing with each other and that permeates throughout the room. Everyone will be up dancing, singing, drinking, and sweating their butts off, and having a blast! What to expect: -Professionalism. Brooks responds promptly and covers all bases. No detail will be overlooked during the planning stages. Day of, they get to the venue well ahead of time to sound check and make sure everything is sounding perfect. During the event, they are great at providing direction and making sure everything runs smoothly. -Personalization and flexibility. The guys truly care about making the event as special as possible and are very open to any idea to bring the event over the top. In addition to our “special request” songs (which they nailed) the band was incredibly gracious at my request to join them onstage to “surprise” my wife and guests by playing a song along with them. It could not have gone over any better…my wife was thrilled and it absolutely brought the house down! -Party! They know what will get everyone up and moving. Their catalogue of songs is well over 200 and it includes all decades and genres. Multiple guests commented that they didn’t want to leave the dance floor to get dessert or go to the bathroom because every song was such an amazing jam. The Barnstorm is absolutely worth every penny. We knew they were the right band for our wedding the first moment we heard them at Hill Country, and we feel so lucky and grateful to the guys for playing our wedding. On top of it all, my wife, friends, and I get to continue to relive that night by seeing their gigs throughout NYC! We simply cannot say enough great things about The Barnstorm.

Tino Photography

  • Photographer
  • Classic style

  • Serves Manalapan, NJ

At Tino Photography, our style is a combination of photojournalism (candid), portrait and editorial photography. Our hope is that the images we create will speak volumes – about who our clients are as people, about relationships between newly married couples and about the subtle nuances of everyday life. Our goal is to provide you with a documentary-based illustration of your wedding day with guiding or posing when necessary. It’s not our intention to just “make pretty pictures”, but to truly make images that capture the relationship between two people in love.

I am truthful in saying that any review of Tino and his team will not do justice compared to the value you will get with him and his team. My wife and I had a covid-remix wedding where we had to move our wedding from right before Covid to April of 2021 (somewhat safe of a time to move forward). I have worked with Tino and his wife Ericka for about a year and a half and every step of the way Tino has been professional, accommodating, respectful, and just an absolute pleasure to work with. As a newly engaged couple and of course wanting to explore all of our options, my wife and I had decided to go to a wedding expo event at Terrace on the Park. After a warm welcome from his assistant CeCe and just admiring his work I knew right there I would be in great hands. From there I had reached out to Tino and we had an initial consultation. I just wanted to mention this because during that consultation, Tino’s first impression was so gentle and warm and I really appreciated that he wasn’t trying to sell us something like multiple other vendors. Also, Tino was able to intimately showcase his personal work and with that my wife and I were able to see that Tino genuinely has a passion for photography, loves what he does, and pours it into his work. The next time we met Tino was our engagement shoot. Tino and Ericka were beyond graceful and accommodating because we decided to do our photo shoot in Domino Park on what happened to be a windy, below freezing day near the water front during sunset. In-between the engagement shoot and covid pushing back our wedding Tino was very accommodating to work with and always keeping in touch in a respectful manner to just check in on us, our ideas, and genuinely our well-being. He gave us great advice as we spoke with other vendors to make our day as organized as possible. Fast forward to April 2021, the big moment finally came! We had a big fat Indian-Italian wedding consisting over a weekend. At every moment his team was professional and just a pleasure to work with to the point where our guests even pointed out how fun and pleasurable they were! Tino, Ericka, Benji, Adam, Derek, Gary, and Rubin at every moment were just punctual, funny, professional, and genuinely a good time. Tino gave great pointers that shined in his work - make up tips, dressing tips, lighting at the venue, poses, motions for our videos, color schemes, you name it. Tino and his team allowed us to feel relaxed and have fun this whole weekend which could have been super stressful. My wife and I were lucky to choose Tino. Our engagement shoot and wedding pictures are absolutely phenomenal. We are thrilled to show friends and family. We’re still using our engagement shoot as our Christmas card two years in a row. Absolutely fantastic work. Our wedding photos came out phenomenal and picture perfect like one of those pictures you get when you buy a picture frame from a department store. Our wedding videos WERE OUT OF THIS WORLD. They actually looked as if it were directed by a movie producer. The video was composed of great motions, video footage, music choices and more at every scene. Tino is beyond talented. All in all, we had a fantastic experience with Tino and his team and the most important thing was that we were completely comfortable while having a fantastic time. We were beyond lucky to have met Tino and Ericka and their team. I truly consider them not only my photographers for life but wonderful, warm people.

Freezing time in a flash of a second. Starting this company has led me to pursue my passions - and I couldn't be more excited to work with you!

Awarded Best of Zola
I found Janine with Vow2Vow through Zola. I was drawn to her style of photography because I felt like she edited photos in a natural way. We scheduled a phone call and she was so warm and answered all my questions. As the wedding day got closer, I gave Janine my list of preferred shots. She managed to get every single shot!! I should note that I did not have a wedding party so that freed us up for portraits during the cocktail hour. All night Janine was unobtrusive while still managing to get the shots. She also did a great job of keeping an eye on the timeline and moving us swiftly along so we were able to enjoy the night. My husband and I were leaving for our honeymoon the day following the wedding so Janine managed to quickly give us some sneak peaks to hold us over until the final album was edited. I also have to mention that Janine was able to get good photos of my toddler children and manage to make us all look good despite the hundred percent humidity. We will cherish these photos forever!

Mario Oliveto Photography is genuine and heavily focused on real emotions, always believing that everyone has a story. Our photography makes you feel as if you were connected with those in front of the camera. Wedding photography is capturing real, raw, emotions, in the most beautiful fine art style.

We had nothing but positive experiences with Mario from engagement shoot to the big day! We used Mario for our engagement shoot in Philly about a year before our wedding. We were really unsure of locations and he had great suggestions that he ran by us and offered ideas ahead of time and during the shoot, he helped adjust as we looked at the lighting and space. We both expressed how unsure we were about taking professional pictures since this was a first for us and were not comfortable with a lot of the trendy shots and he really worked with us to make all the poses feel natural to us while still looking phenomenal. We decided to go with his associates for the big day based on our budget and they did not let down. Mario specifically picked two photographers who were familiar with our venue and had great suggestions for where to get the best shots. Our two associates, Rachel & Alyssa, were helpful, kind, fun, professional and absolute champs to get all the best pictures on our day. We had 100 degree temps and they worked so hard to make sure we were comfortable the entire time while not sacrificing the pictures we had planned for. They checked in with us often and were not afraid to tell our family that the group pictures were done so that we could actually enjoy cocktail hour (after confirming with us that is was what we wanted). They also took adorable couples pictures of our guests during lulls in the dinner service that my family and friends were beyond excited for. Mario and his associates are an absolute recommendation in my book and I can not say enough nice things about working with them!

I’m a drummer, a mother of two amazing kids, and a proud owner of an 80lb Samoyed. My passion for photography is deeply influenced by my family legacy—my grandmother was a dedicated full-time photographer who spent her life capturing and hand-coloring her own images. Growing up immersed in her art has profoundly shaped my own approach to photography. As a photographer, I'd love to capture the journey of two people in love, telling the genuine and touching story of their life together. I strive to create images that convey heartfelt narratives and reflect the true essence of your relationship and the moments you share.

We hired Momo for our Chinese-Bengali fusion wedding celebration in lower east side of Manhattan in mid June 2024. We had a very small venue with 10 family members and 30 closest and dearest friends of ours for an intimate gathering. Momo’s camera closely followed and captured the unfolding of the event and the subtlest facial expressions of our family, guests and myself throughout the night. I got to know about her work from Red (Chinese Reddit) before entrusting her for one of the most important events of my life, but was still caught exhilarated by her work product on our event — her passion about photography and deep expertise in its technicality shined through the over 200-photo-well-woven storyline. Besides her exceptional work and high professionalism throughout our pre-and-during event communication, I appreciated her confident and genuine approach which I found down-to-earth, super helpful and reassuring — she really put in the work to understand you and amplify your shining traits. It’s such a pleasant and unforgettable experience to work with Momo. I would highly recommend her for any couples who are looking for wedding photographers.
