Gianna has been sharing their many amazing pictures and videos.....love them all!! Your sharp eyes are amazing, coming from Mom, I have to say though, my daughter and her then fiance are very photogenic. But ALSO you captured the MOMENTS of the day, the EMOTIONS of the day, the EVENTS of the day and EVERYTHING in between to perfection. Many take pictures, it takes an eye like no other to bring together the pictures that I have seen from you all. I love every pic, some caught me differently than others and most of those were the ones that were truly "simple" or "out of the box" versus traditional, you got it all!! I hope you enjoyed the day as well. You are all amazing, work great together and we wish you continued expression of excellence and a lifetime of good health and joy. It is my hope that our paths will cross again someday!! Regards, Susan & Paul

I'm Miranda, a Jersey City, NJ wedding photographer. I understand that being in front of a camera can be awkward, especially if you're not used to it. Instead of putting you in robot poses, I will guide you on moving naturally and provide prompts to evoke fun and romance. Your wedding day is a once-in-a-lifetime event, surrounded by all your favorite people and their love as they celebrate your next chapter as a married couple. It's no surprise you want wedding photos you can look back on to feel the connection, remember the moment, and share the stories. I believe photographs are like time machines, one of life's greatest treasures.

Miranda flew out to my San Diego wedding to capture my special day. She was so present and made me feel absolutely beautiful and comfortable. I honestly wish I could get married every year just to be able to work along side her. My groom also loved her and never felt uncomfortable or "over" the picture taking! Cannot recommend her and Greg enough! They are such a lovely couple and were meant to do this! Thank you!

Diana and Korey Photo and Film 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $6,498
  • Serves Montclair, NJ

As many millennials do, we met on one of those phone dating apps (eh hem.. Tinder..) and had an instant connection! It didn't take long for Korey to make things "official" and asked Diana if she would be his girlfriend. Of course she said 'yes!' and it was a whirlwind after that. We adopted an adorable blue nose pittie, moved in together, and started a business! Now here we are, 6 years later - chasing our dreams and building a career together as a MARRIED COUPLE!! (and we also have another pup!).

One of the best decisions we made in our wedding planning process! Communication with Diana and Korey was smooth from the get go. Just take a look at their beautifully organized website and gallery and you'll understand what I mean! (It's also a great place to start looking for venue inspo!) Time tables with when and what things should happen are reviewed at a scheduled check in time. And the attention to detail they dedicate to your vision/pinterest board is a true sigh of relief for any bride in the wedding planning process! Josh and I are also certified introverts so it's hard for us to feel at ease in front of a camera. But each and every member of their team was so personable that it was easy for each smile and laugh to be genuine. Of course it also helped that Diana always had a pose idea ready to try! During our sweltering July wedding, despite 95 degree weather, Diana and her team sweated alongside us and continued to show enthusiasm for getting that next shot at that next backdrop to make sure every moment was captured. AND she had so many preview photos ready a mere TWO DAYS after the wedding. Herculean feat truly All our friends cannot stop complimenting the wedding album as they said Diana and Korey truly encapsulated our day and helped them relive it once more. I am so thankful that we have these memories memorialized through them and can't recommend this magical team enough!

I have been photographing weddings and events for 8 years, and I couldn't imagine anything more fulfilling than capturing the sweetest and most authentically beautiful moments in my couples' lives. I love making new friends in my clients and can't wait to become one of yours!

Awarded Best of Zola
It was love at first sight when I found Blooming Faith Photography on Zola! I was struck by the classic style of the portraits and natural air of those being photographed. It was exactly what I was looking for! Melissa was quick to respond to my inquiry and provided all the info I needed right off the bat. She is detailed and thorough in her correspondence and planning, which I appreciated since we only had 5 months to plan our wedding long distance. She offered an introductory Zoom consultation to discuss our vision for the photos so we could feel at ease leading up to the actual day. When the time came, Melissa was the consummate professional! We did a First Look shoot, and she lead the way completely, to avoid any awkward mishaps and to insure we got the moment captured on our video as well. All of our formal photos were posed beautifully and naturally, and she timed it all perfectly (which was great, because it was quite cold!) She’s also great with kids! Our flower girl and ring bearer had a great time doing photos. At both the ceremony and reception, Melissa didn’t miss a single moment yet remained respectful and discreet. Her experience and expertise is obvious! And the photos that we’ve seen so far have been absolutely gorgeous. Timeless and sophisticated while still capturing the joy from that day. And as a human being, we couldn’t have asked for a kinder soul to capture everything for us. Melissa’s warmth and care brought the whole experience to another level. My husband and I were blessed to have found Blooming Faith Photography!

Awarded Best of Zola
I truly can't say enough good things about Lex, I recommend her to every person I know! She's an amazing person, her work is incredible, and she always goes above and beyond for her clients. She's so easygoing, extremely flexible, and will make your shoots so comfortable and relaxed. We did a few shoots with Lex prior to getting engaged. She actually helped my fiance plan our engagement and she absolutely nailed both execution and the photos. She was the first vendor we booked for our wedding and was the easiest decision we made the entire planning process. She was extremely patient at our official engagement shoot when we brought our crazy dogs and were trying to get them to sit still and pose for a few photos, and had no issues editing out a big black stain that got on the side of my white dress during our shoot. She's someone who truly cares about her work AND her clients, and will do whatever she needs to to make your experience perfect. Every frame in my house is filled with photos taken by Lex. If you're considering hiring her for your big day, this is your sign to DO IT!

I reside in Jersey City, New Jersey, serving New Jersey, New York, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, and beyond. I grew up surrounded by family photos. My parents had a professional photography business, Infinity Photography, back in the days of film. My friend asked me to do her senior portraits, so I started my photography business after my parent's business was closed for nearly 20 years. Fun fact, I chose "Grey" because I'm a nerd, and I love Jean Grey - she's my fave X-men. Also, my name is hard to spell, especially when you hear it. It's like "Leah" with a "Tuh."

As a professional photographer for the past several years, I have worked with clients in New York, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Philadelphia, North New Jersey, and elsewhere. Despite the availability of smartphones and digital cameras, a professional photographer remains essential for capturing the emotion and true essence of an important event. I am ready to help you immortalize your wedding.

Choosing the right photographer for our destination wedding was a crucial decision, and we truly struck gold with Hector. From our first interaction, it was clear that we were in the hands of a professional who not only excels at his craft but genuinely cares about capturing the essence of his clients' most special moments. Hector made the whole process feel seamless, even from miles away. He was incredibly flexible and open to our ideas and visions, making sure that every detail was discussed and planned to perfection. His communication was exemplary throughout, providing us with the reassurance needed when planning such an important event from afar. Upon meeting him at our wedding location, his warm and personable approach immediately put us at ease. We hired him to a week long wedding at Punta Cana and he made everyday so special. Hector has the unique ability to blend into the background, capturing candid moments one might typically miss, yet also possesses the knack for organizing group shots effortlessly, making everyone feel comfortable and at ease. Our wedding Party and all our guest loved him and how he interacts with everyone just shows how he cares. His work ethic is something out of this world. Hector went above and beyond, from arriving at the venue early to scout the best photo spots, to his patience and creativity with every shot. The photos were stunning—a perfect blend of natural light, picturesque backgrounds, and authentic expressions. What truly set Hector apart was his ability to make us feel completely comfortable throughout our big day. His guidance on poses and scenes was invaluable, and his upbeat personality made us feel like we were just hanging out with a friend who happened to be an incredible photographer. When we received our wedding photos, we were absolutely blown away. Each image told a story, capturing the spirit and joy of our day. The colors, angles, and moments he chose to capture were nothing short of magical. It's clear that Hector doesn’t just take photos; he creates art and captures feelings. We couldn't be more grateful to have had Hector as part of our wedding journey. His professionalism, talent, and kind-hearted nature made our experience unforgettable. We highly recommend him to anyone looking to capture the essence of their special day in the most beautiful and heartfelt way possible. We are so grateful for the exceptional work he provided us. I promise you that you will be blown away. Look no further and hire Hector for your next event or wedding whether local or destination wedding you will truly love his work

To start with...Communication with her was always informative and detailed. She actually did our wedding back in January and Our wedding was one of the unlucky ones impacted by COVID so when we were scrambling to get our plans together in preparation for postponements and downsizing gabby was the sweetest and the easiest to talk to. She was very understanding with our situation since we're both frontline workers and even went as far as to get tested twice before our small backyard ceremony.

I’m Lizzie, a wedding & engagement photographer in New York and New Jersey. For more than a decade, I’ve been capturing life's great moments. On wedding days, I am known for my happy and relaxed presence, making sure you’re on time and smiling throughout your whole day.

Working with Lizzie through the entire process, from shopping for a photographer, booking, engagement shoot, planning, day of and photo delivery was the smoothest process imaginable. My husband and I felt as if we were chatting with a friend every conversation, meeting and event we spent with Lizzie. To put it plainly, she is built for this business, in and out. Our engagement photos and wedding photos were all beyond stunning. We received sneak peak photos within days of both of our engagement shoot and wedding. The sneak peak wedding photos were received NEXT DAY! Our full wedding album came one month and one day later. Lizzie had the pleasure of photographing us when it was 20 degrees or less during our engagement shoot and torrential downpours our wedding day. The photos capture only our love and the best moments of our life, you would never even know the elements were less than cooperative. As mentioned previously, due to the weather on our wedding day 99% of our photos had to be fully indoors. Every single photos was even better than we could imagine. We were spoiled with being able to get a few awesome stunning outdoor shots when the rain broke for a little bit during our reception. Lizzie came with two additional photographers day off, Jacky and Hannah, that worked seamlessly with her to help towards our stunning lifelong memories. If you want to add a vendor to your wedding team that will ensure you have the day of your dreams to look back on forever, run don’t walk to book Lizzie.

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!

From our engagement shoot to our wedding day, Laura was continuously engaged with us throughout the process and put together our day of timeline. Days before the wedding, she made sure all our vendors and family members were on the same page with the timeline by sending them an email and her contact information. Truly a STRESSFREE process for a bride and groom knowing that you have Laura and a support team behind you. She’ll go the extra step for great pictures. We received so many compliments from our friends and family on how hard she worked and how friendly she was! I believe that photos are the biggest part of a wedding and an investment since they last forever. Every bride wants a beautiful sunny day for their wedding, even if it was extremely hot on my wedding day, I knew that Laura would be able to capture us in the best light. I could go on and on about how wonderful Laura is. I strongly recommend Laura Lee Photography and I look forward to continuing my relationship with her. Thank you for everything you did for us on our special day!!!

My name is Jovanny Hernandez and I am a Portrait and Wedding Photographer based in New Jersey. No matter the session, from Weddings to Portraits, my goal is to deliver service and excellence. The whole experience matters, from booking your first meeting to receiving your final images. I pride myself on delivering the experience my clients are looking to have. This involves communicating expectations, ideas, vision for the day and the overall experience.

Where to even begin… Jovanny captured our wedding exactly and as joyously as it occurred. He not only fully encapsulated our personalities through these pictures, but also captured the bliss we were radiating. Several wedding guests and family members came up to us to commend how well Jovanny communicated with everyone during the photos. He fit right in like another guest. We had a destination wedding during peak fall foliage in NH. Jovanny drove behind us up to the top of mountain we got married on surrounded by our friends and family. His organizational skills and creative thinking made group shots effortless and pain free - even with our 2 and 3 year old niece and nephew. Our family members praised his upbeat, outgoing attitude the entire time. He’s a true professional. Every day I find myself looking back through our easy to use gallery that he set up for our photos. We also used Jovanny for our engagement shoot. He’s one of the most down to earth people we’ve ever connected with. We recommend everyone reaches out to book with him before the rest of the world (and New Jersey) realizes what a hidden gem he is.
