Joy Bethany Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Newark, NJ

Hey there, I'm Joy! Years from now when you look at your wedding photographs, I want all of the memories and emotions to come flooding back: the joy, the love, and the laughter. It’s so easy to live our lives, missing the sweetest moments because how quickly they fly by. Those sweet in-between moments that can be so easily missed are my favorite to capture. Whether it be your candid smiles, the tears shed on your wedding day, or your beautiful family laughing together, I find joy in capturing you being YOU! I love photography because through it, I’m able to share pieces of your story and create lasting memories.

Joy made us feel special and relaxed in the midst of a hectic day. She captured our love so beautifully and delivered photos that looked effortless and natural, which is exactly what we wanted! So much of that is owed to her encouraging words off-camera that made the environment feel comfortable even while being photographed. She wholeheartedly lives up to her name and brought sunshine to our already bright day!

Richel Diaz Photography

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $4,500
  • Serves Newark, NJ

Just a little bit weird. Usually the quiet one until I get around a smaller group of people. I cry easily at any emotional part of a movie, and I love all the tiny moments in life that truly make you feel alive. The smallest detail or fleeting moment is sometimes the most important thing or has the biggest impact, and that’s why I love photography. I get to capture the little things in life.

Richel was wonderful to work with and we highly recommend her. We actually had so much fun shooting our engagement photos and it shows in the photos. Richel delivered a gorgeous final product and guided us throughout the process. professional, thoughtful, sweet and highly skilled are some of the ways I would describe Richel.

Our experience with Melissa Vergo Photography was world class- from the initial meeting with Melissa to receiving a special photo keepsake box with photos from the engagement shoot. On our initial meeting, Melissa did an amazing job of understanding our wants and needs. On the day of the shoot, she made us feel so comfortable and made the experience so fun. We received our photos in a very timely manner. We are in love with every single photo. We can’t thank Melissa enough for these memories she beautifully captured.

Denise Marie Photography

  • Starts at $5,995
  • Serves Newark, NJ

I'm an empathetic person. I'm sensitive and in tune with the more spiritual side of life. I love travel and photography. I am a mother and a lover of fashion and nature and all things beauty. Coffee is basically my favorite and what makes me hop out of bed (even on Monday morning). I have a lot of energy and I love fitness and eating healthy. I love my girlfriends and have deep relationships but only with a handful of women who I trust. Loyalty is important to me and I believe in doing all things with love.

Denise was beyond amazing! From the first call to the day off, she is extremely detail-oriented and quick to respond should you have any questions. The day of, we had the pleasure of Simon helping her with photos and he was an artist. They both made all of us very comfortable and confident throughout the whole day. We were able to obtain all the pictures we planned on during the wedding and the sneak preview of photos came within days after the wedding! I cannot wait to see the full album or thank her and her team for an amazing day.

Yvonne Yuen Photography

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $4,200
  • Serves Newark, NJ

I’m guilty of romantizing my life, from my morning coffee in the kitchen to the walk to the fancy grocery store that’s out of the way. It's how I like to look at life. I take notice and enjoy the small mundane things. It's the same philosophy I apply to photography. It lets me capture and romantize all the moments that go unnoticed but worth remembering.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring Yvonne was the best decision we could have made for our wedding! She completely understood the vibe we were going for and captured us as our genuine selves. We got married in a park and had an after party at our favorite bar. She captured so many beautiful moments that we didn't even realize or see that day, and everything we love about both locations. Nothing felt forced, even the posed family shots, because she made it so easy. All of our family and guests felt comfortable and commented on her professionalism, and are as in awe as we are at how our photos turned out. Somehow she photographed us looking like our authentic selves, but also like we should be on a movie poster. We will be hiring her for all the important moments in our lives from here on out!

Awarded Best of Zola
We are so happy to have hired Angelica and her team. From the start she listened to what we needed, catered to our vision for our wedding photos, and delivered breathtaking images. Any questions we had she answered, so it was great to have quick communication with her, as most of our vendors took almost a week to get back to us! We go through our photos all the time, and I can honestly say our wedding photos are so much better than my friend's photos! We also had a full album and parent albums in our collection. Our main album came in a gorgeous wooden box. Our parent's album were custom created for them, instead of a replica. We even got a few large photos to decorate our home. They are absolutely gorgeous! We were very happy we did purchase them and Angelica delivered them within two to three months from our wedding! Thanks to her always following up with us, we were able to get our albums designed, our wall art photos chosen, and helped us guide our parents as to what photos to choose for their albums. I have friends still waiting for their albums and photos and it's been almost a year. You can't go wrong with Angelica Criscuolo Photography. She's sweet, a professional, and when it came time to family photos, she was the boss and took charged! We loved it as we have a very boisterous family. Thank you Angelica!

Casey Fatchett Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Newark, NJ

I stay behind the camera because I'm more than a little introverted. That is, until I get to know people. Then I open up and we can talk about movies, music, dogs (I'm happy to show you pictures and videos of my rescue dog). I love what I do because I get to capture moments between you and the most important people in your life that you'll be able to relive for decades to come!

Casey photographed my wedding in 2008. We chose him because we really found his photography to be stylish and beautiful without being pricey or pretentious, and we found it in him. Of course we had a budget, but Casey worked with us every step of the way to make it work without pressure. He made eye contact when we spoke, took notes and was attentive and sensitive to every detail. I finally felt seen. I didn't feel like I was just another bride. In that moment; I was THE BRIDE. At the wedding he was a calming presence, as he and his assistant helped with details sometimes above and beyond his job description. When it came time to actually pose with some family members, he was patient and his comedic personality kept us all entertained through those "mandatory photos". The rest? Well it was on artistic auto-pilot from there, it was incredibly smooth. He is able to move around the room capturing the pure emotions that made your day, yours. I remember him being there of course, but I just remember having the best time of my life;not if I closed one eye or had lipstick on my teeth. Our photos were the simply the best photojournalism I had ever seen. My jaw dropped because I don't consider myself photogenic AT ALL (hello, double chin! Just why? EVERY pic from girl's night..really?) but there it was. I looked GOOD. Everyone did. Great light and texture...high-def LOVE. It was INCREDIBLY difficult to narrow down the pics we wanted to an amazing album that he retouched to perfection and arranged! So. In conclusion.... Stop. Looking. Further. You found him. Be Happy. And Congrats on one of the first of many smart decisions as you begin your new life together.

Hey! I am so happy you’re here! I’m Stephanie, the owner and lead photographer of StephGBLove. I offer full day and custom wedding packages curated to your day. I like to learn about my couple’s personalities and love story to curate images that capture their uniqueness. If you think you are not photogenic, check out any of my work and about 90% of my clients think the same thing. And then they see their photos and love them! It’s all about a great experience and getting you two to show your love for one another. Some fun facts about me are, I am a dog & cat mom, metalhead, a girlfriend and avid rom-com watcher. And I can’t wait to meet you!

Steph photographed my husband and I’s wedding about a year ago from now. We were blown away with the results! She captured everything we requested. She had someone else there to assist as a second photographer as well. Steph worked with us within our budget, and delivered results within a timely manner. We have an online portfolio that we visit often to remind us of our beautiful day. I definitely recommend choosing her for your wedding/photography session!

I love hanging out with my kids, beach combing for really neat shells, cuddling with my dog who just so happens to be named Princess Fiona after the movie Shrek, and being an amazing wife to my husband while bringing joy to peoples lives through professional photography. I am super down to earth, pretty dang fun, and super creative. When I get clients who trust me 120%, their galleries are beyond EPIC. At the end of the day, I'm just a girl who fell in love with photography! I also enjoy museums, and find inspiration in architecture, high end fashion magazines and underground art.

To say I love my photographer would be an understatement. Our special day was thrown together in 6 weeks, but you couldn’t tell by looking at our pictures. Lauren took the time to speak with me about the moments that were most important to me, and why. After explaining to her that my father had cancer and his diagnosis was a big part of our rush, she made it her mission to capture every smile every tear every dance and every look my husband and I shared, and my father shared with everyone in attendance, especially me. She set up the first look between my husband son and I, she understood my vision and my need to be different, her artistic eye and attention to detail turned a broken down roadside stand into the perfect fall/Halloween backdrop for our first look. When it came time for my father to see me, before our guest, she set him up, back turned and captured every smile, and every tear he and shared in that moment. She created memories for myself, my husband and our family, and froze them in time with pictures that I will always treasure, and I couldn’t be happier and anymore grateful for how much love and dedication she poured into making sure our special day and every moment of it was captured

Cly by Matthew

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $3,800
  • Serves Newark, NJ

CLY BY MATTHEW has evolved at year 2004 from fashion, portrait and still life photography to the wonderful world of wedding photography, which incorporates all three genres. We follow a non-intrusive photojournalistic style for your weddings, which our clients (and their guests) very much appreciate. We concentrate not only on the big picture, but also we take pride in capturing the sincere fleeting moments that evoke the senses the very essence of photography.

Where do I start…I have so many things to praise about Matthew and his team at CLY by Matthew. The search for our photographer took forever, but once I found CLY and Matthew’s work, it was essentially an instantaneous decision. I left the intro meeting/conversation 100% sure we’d hire him. His and his team’s photography is beautiful, elegant, classic, and natural – and it was so easy to work with them from a fit and personality standpoint. I’ll admit, it’s a little awkward to pose for photography! But in the months leading up, and the day of, the wedding, Matthew and his team made us feel very comfortable in front of the camera. Matthew is one of the kindest people ever, and his calm demeanor made everything so pleasant and easy (especially with the frantic nature of wedding planning!) We are in LOVE with the photos we got back. We still can’t even believe it’s us, and our wedding, because the CLY team captured everything so amazingly. It’s surreal! We are so lucky to have found them and worked with Matthew. I’m hoping to find an excuse in the future to work with him again for professional photography. If you’re here and in the middle of researching photographers, stop reading and contact CLY immediately. You won’t regret it, I promise you.

Having the perfect wedding without breaking the bank? It's possible with Wedding Bug. Every couple deserves high-end artistry to preserve their most prized wedding day moments. Wedding Bug was founded to make it unbelievably affordable and accessible to all! The Wedding Bug team has over 40 years of experience producing wedding photography, video, and DJ and we have drawn on our rich history of quality, reliability and innovation to make it possible.

We were thrilled with our wedding photographer from Wedding Bug. David was a dream to work with - his communication style was amazing throughout the entire process. He was incredibly responsive, made everything easy and fun, and had an incredible talent behind the lens. The photos David captured from our special day are stunning - he has such an artistic eye and brilliant way of composing shots. He brought so much energy and fun to our event, making all of our wedding party feel at ease while also directing us for gorgeous portraits. The value and quality of David's work is exceptional. I cannot recommend Wedding Bug highly enough - they are simply amazing! Their entire team, especially David, were a joy to work with and contributed so much to making our wedding day perfect.

We're a pair of super fun wedding photographers, filmmakers + elopement planners (also officiants) and we're already your biggest fan <3 Award winning! Multi published! Featured in magazines! Neurodivergent! LGBTQ+! Artistic! Unique! Vintage videos! One-of-a-kind timelapse films! We love working with film + vintage video cameras, capturing little moments others forget about, and creating portraits that would make David Lynch + Alexander McQueen weep with excitement. Contact us anytime day or night and we'll be super pumped to get to know you and explain more of what makes us so unique.

I cannot recommend Requiem Images enough. I randomly found them on Instagram when I was searching for an elopement photographer. Being a photographer myself, I am extremely particular and was a bit afraid I’d never find someone to live up to my expectations. Not only did kitty meet my expectations, she exceeded them. From start to finish, I was impressed with the professionalism and love that poured out of this amazing human. I am, per my own designation, an incredibly awkward subject. I’m used to hiding behind the camera, but Kitty made me feel so comfortable. I honestly can’t believe the images she was able to capture. Her attention to detail and ability to make people feel at ease are truly a gift. Not only did I use her for our elopement, but I also subsequently hired her for our family pictures, and then my own branding session. She has raw talent and an eye for the extraordinary. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Requiem Images to everyone I know (or don’t know!). Book them immediately. You will not regret it!!

Hi! I'm Meghan. I've had a love for photography since my parents bought me my first camera for Christmas in 2001. I took pictures of anyone and anything that sat still for more than .03 seconds. The more pictures I took, the more I loved it. It became a passion of mine, but it wasn't until later that I had the dream of starting my own business. In the meantime, I teach middle school - 7th grade Language Arts to be exact. Yes, it's exactly as crazy as you're imagining, likely even more so. Teaching has taught me two things: patience and how to laugh at myself.

Working with Meghan is always a treat. Clients love her because she is high-energy, hilarious, and just amazing behind the lens. Meghan has a creative eye for those candid moments and really captures the most important moments on a wedding day. Seeing her work first-hand, it's beautiful. Her images truly reflect the emotions shared between two people. I'm constantly amazed and inspired by her work. There is a reason she is my favorite photographer to work with. She knows how to read a room and a situation, so nothing gets missed. Wedding days go by quickly, but with Meghan, they go by even quicker because you're having so much fun. She's like that extra wedding party member you didn't know you needed. She's got your back. If you're looking for professionalism, stunning photos, and a good time, you want Meghan Luckenbill.

I’m a destination wedding photographer who loves to travel, take photos, drink, and eat… I know, you’ve probably never heard of ANYONE else with those likes. Haha! What can I say – I’m basic. ;). I’ve always had a love and fascination with movies, tv shows, Vanity Fair magazines, and looking at the history and style from the Mad Men era. They have something so timeless and yet meaningful about them?! Both their posed and candid moments – I DIE! I have been so fortunate that I’ve been able to take the things that inspire me and apply them organically to my wedding photography.

We pride ourselves on being storytellers documenting timeless, raw human connections. Our specialization lies in turning perfectly imperfect weddings into fun memories

I recently had the pleasure of working with Leo for my wedding, and I couldn't be happier with the entire experience.

I love that Leo's response was professional, yet so friendly and casual. He made the planning process so easy. He was not only responsive and organized but also went above and beyond to help us with the details. Our plans changed daily leading up to the wedding date, and he was completely flexible and supportive of our plan at every turn. Our first meeting went really well, and the prices were fair, so we booked him right away. When he showed up on our wedding day, I felt comfortable right away. It felt like having a friend who was also taking pictures of our wedding day. We had a lot of fun with him! I just got our photo gallery and am very happy with the pictures.

It took us a really long time to find a photographer that we both agreed on. My husband studied film in school and was looking for someone who was competent (good framing, straight horizon lines, no weird focus issues, etc.) and I was looking for someone whose work was both trendy and timeless. We found both of these traits in Diana. I always feel terribly awkward in photos, but Diana made the whole process as painless as possible and managed to get beautiful photos of the two of us that we will cherish forever. Diana thinks quickly on her feet and I've followed her social media for over a year at this point. All of her shoots feel very personal to the couple - it really feels that every couple gets a new creative eye. We had a slight delay to our ceremony, so Diana took advantage of the time and completed all of our portraits so that immediately after the ceremony we were able to enjoy cocktail hour with our friends & family. We selected a package with a second photographer after our initial consultation with Diana because specific photos we wanted required it, and the additional photographer she provided was excellent! I was also quite impressed with how quickly we received a sneak peek of our wedding photos and the full set of photos arrived shortly after. I have had friends that waited several months to receive their photos, but we had ours back within a few weeks! If you are looking for an assertive, quick-thinking photographer who will keep you calm on your wedding day and also ensure that you receive the shot list of your dreams, look no further. Diana is the best!

Elizabeth Russell Photography

  • Serves Newark, NJ

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!

Wild Elegance

Hello hello! My name is Marie and I am the owner and photographer for Wild Elegance. We are a brand for adventurers, for lovers of life, and genuine people who love those little moments between the moments in life and seek out truth over perfection. Your marriage is unique because of the relationships you have with the people you choose to celebrate with. Spending my day with you and your closest family and friends brings me such joy, and creating art out of some of the best moments of your life is something I am truly honored to be a part of for so many.

Knowing how much of a financial investment a wedding photographer was going to be, I did not take my decision lightly. I reached out to several companies and had several questions when determining who would be the right fit. And I have to say, Marie was by far the most understanding and compassionate during that process. While many photographers seemed annoyed by the (many) questions I would ask before booking, Marie was patient and very thoughtful with her responses -- she even took time to arrange a phone call with me while traveling! And during that phone call, she made sure I didn't feel rushed and that she answered all questions I had fully, it truly felt like I was talking to a friend. That was when I made the decision to book with Marie. Beyond that, when booking the session for our Engagement photos, she brought several creative and adventurous ideas to the table and had the PERFECT locations to take us to. We had a blast together. I would recommend Marie to anyone looking for a photographer who is friendly, compassionate, accommodating and just a joy to be around.

A FEW YEARS LATER, I AM A PHOTOGRAPHER BASED IN NEW YORK CITY BUT THAT LOVE FOR CAPTURING AUTHENTIC MOMENTS WITH REAL PEOPLE HAS NOT CHANGED. IT'S JUST AMAZING HOW A PASSION FOR PHOTOGRAPHY TURNED OUT TO BE MY DAILY JOB. I AM REALLY BLESSED EVERY MINUTE OF MY LIFE. I HAVE MANY YEARS OF EXPERIENCE NOW.

Honestly we had a hard time picking/narrowing down our photos for our album,frames & Instagram because all of them were so good!! If you want quality/beautiful classic photos or candid photos this is the photographer! Hands down one of the best vendor choices and experiences of our wedding selections.

We worked with Jon for our civil wedding photos in Brooklyn Heights and couldn't be happier with the whole process. From the moment we got in touch with him for the first time until the handoff of all the photos, the experience was seamless. His extremely organised work methodology made everything smooth and easy. We spent two hours with him walking around Brooklyn Heights and DUMBO, and the result was a great variety of photos. Jon's got a special eye for lighting, composition and editing. On top of everything, his personality while working made it possible for us to act natural in front of the camera. 100% recommend working with him. It will be fun and the final edits will be memorable.

David Perlman Photography

I was voted Friendliest in high school (very proud of that fact), and I genuinely love what I do. I cry at every wedding, and I usually cry again when I'm editing your photos. I used to be an actor on Broadway and TV, and I think that makes me a stickler for making sure your photos are authentic and believable. (And I will help you get there!) I'm married to a wonderful man, so I've been through the wedding planning from the other side (ahh!), and we have an adorable little dog. :)

David is an absolute gem! For two people who hate having their pictures taken, my husband and I had a blast working with David. He makes the whole process so fun and exciting. Not to mention, David takes GORGEOUS photos that capture moments and pure emotion. I would recommend David, again and again to anyone looking for a wedding photographer. The best of the best!

Tyler Boye Photography

  • Editorial style
  • Serves Newark, NJ

For over a decade, while living in Los Angeles, Tyler’s work entailed red carpet events & Hollywood parties, photo shoots for fashion & news magazines, as well as celebrity portraits & intimate gatherings. After shooting weddings for several editors, friends, and celebrities Tyler found he really enjoyed the “storytelling” aspect of a wedding day.

I cannot say enough positive things about our experience working with Tyler, Jess, and team. They are the most kind, talented, and helpful team we could have ever hoped for. Not only did Tyler capture phenomenal pictures but he also helped us navigate family dynamics in picture arrangements and leaned into every picture combination we wanted. Further, Jess was the most phenomenal wedding coordinator we could have ever hoped for. She made everything an absolute breeze. She pursues her coordination tasks with kindness, compassion, focus, and organization. We could not have had a successful day without her! I truly cannot recommend working with this team enough! They are incredible!

We had the pleasure of hiring a documentary-style wedding photographer for our special day, and I couldn't be happier with the results. Their ability to capture candid moments and genuine emotions was truly remarkable. The photos tell a story that goes beyond posed shots, giving us a vivid and authentic memory of our wedding. Their attention to detail is impeccable, and they have a keen eye for capturing the little moments that often go unnoticed. From the laughter shared between guests to the heartfelt glances exchanged during the ceremony, every emotion was beautifully documented. Not only did they capture the essence of the day, but they did so with a level of professionalism and discretion that put everyone at ease. They seamlessly blended into the background, allowing for natural interactions and genuine expressions to shine through. Their post-processing work enhanced the photos without veering into heavy editing, maintaining the genuine feel of the day. The color palettes and tones used in the final edits were tastefully done, adding to the overall storytelling. We wholeheartedly recommend this photographer to anyone seeking more than just pictures – they deliver an emotional journey through their lens. If you're looking for a wedding photographer who can capture the true essence of your day, this documentary-style photographer is an absolute must.

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away… wait that’s a different story :-) What seems like "lightyears" ago, 2004 was the beginning of our story, an epic tale spanning years and continents as we travel to discover the greatest story ever told…yours!

Lightyear Studios is truly a master of their craft. My one sole criteria was that I did not want a “point- and -shoot photographer” and they are definitely not that! Nathan and Thanh brings true vision to life. We used them for our engagement shoot, my bridal shower, and our wedding. The pictures have all come out beautiful, and really captured the emotion and energy of the room. My husband and I are as awkward on camera as they come. The Lightyear team eases you and helps you navigate through each picture and pose. I don’t know how they do it but I am all here for it. In addition, Their level of communication and ability to get back to your questions and concerns in a timely manner is top tier. Highly recommend!

She was incredibly helpful the day of our wedding, from extensively scoping out photography locations, to bringing us water and anything else we needed as we were going through our shot list. The final gallery that she shared with us was absolutely stunning and so full of unique moments and details we were so glad were captured on film for us to relive again and again.

We loved IMOStudio. We had great communication with King throughout the booking process and leading up to our wedding. The day of couldn’t have been more perfect. We did photo and video through IMOstudio. We loved working with Luis and Benny. They made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera having never met them before. We also had a ton of fun! My husband laughed a lot while taking photos, it was so carefree. They had great suggestions and our pictures came out so great. Everyone worries about how their wedding photos will come out, with IMOstudio, you don’t have to. We couldn’t have asked for anything more. We’d book them again and again. Thank you!
