Jason Snorlax Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Ocean City, NJ

Jason "Snorlax" Cun is an all around photographer that currently resides in Los Angeles, California. He was raised in the heart of Los Angeles, where he found his calling in photography. He aims to capture the beauty of the world and the people in them. He has recently begun his travels around the U.S capturing the life of those within that city.

Jason was recommended to me by a family member, and to this day, I'm so grateful. Jason was so quick with communication. He responded and asked for details from the very beginning. He was easy to talk to. We ended up booking him for our engagement photos AND our wedding photos. Our engagement photo session was seamless. Jason was easy to work with and he made my (now) husband and I feel so comfortable. Photo sessions do NOT have to be awkward with Jason. He recommended the LA Arboretum and the Pasadena City Hall for our shoot and we couldn't have asked for any better location. Jason knew exactly where to go and what to do. When it came time for our wedding day, Jason and Mae (his second) were so nice. They did not rush us for any photoshoot. He had us take our time, take breathers, and helped us stress about one less thing during the day. We just got our photos back and they are downright GORGEOUS. I could not believe these were us. I am still amazed by it all. The turnover time was so quick as well. Again, communication was so easy with him. I HIGHLY recommend Jason as a photographer. We could not have asked for anyone better.

  • Photographer

  • Starts at $2,600
  • Serves Ocean City, NJ

To start, I'm obsessed with memories! I am a mother of two wonderful kids and the wife of the most amazing, supportive man. Photography has been such a big part of my life the last twelve years and I can't thank my clients enough for allowing me to capture their special moments. I believe in capturing moments as they happen. My style is clean and natural and there's always those black and white moments that I can't live without! I love having a vision and seeing it realized through a photograph. Also, I love to travel!

My husband and I cannot recommend Amy enough!! Not only did she make our wedding so incredible special, memorable, and fun, but she was so impeccably organized and efficient — I can't imagine there are any other photographers who know the ins and outs of The Banks on the level that she does. We couldn't be happier with the photos and everything from the locations to the lighting was perfect! Not only is Amy at the top of her professional game, but she's just a lovely person — super responsive, detail-oriented, sweet, and supportive. We loved working with her so much and she made our day so stress free! If you're getting married there's no better photographer than Amy!! You will not be disappointed xo

Mario Oliveto Photography

  • Photographer
  • Fine art style
  • Serves Ocean City, NJ

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!

In the future when you look back on your wedding film, you will remember this very day and the person that you once were.

Awarded Best of Zola
James was listed as a ‘preferred’ vendor for our photographer (Ben Lau – also exceptional), and we are SO glad he was! He is super kind, organized, and professional – patiently answered all our questions, promptly followed up after meetings, and gave us ample time to fill out our timeline/select music choices. Day-of, James and his second shooter Pon worked incredibly well with our photographer (they traded off directing shots) and never felt invasive. A week after our wedding, he posted an IG 45-sec reel that was the perfect keepsake (possibly my absolute favorite thing!) to quickly show friends/family eagerly waiting to see footage – with all of the key moments to our first dance song, tagged our vendors (without even asking us to gather handles!), and in a modern yet old-school classic style that goes so well with our vibe/venue!! We went with the Modern Film package full video edit and were very happy with the quality and cuts – our family loved watching it!

The singer Karlea was phenomenal and did an amazing job of keeping our guests engaged and entertained. The musicians were all courteous, professional, and exceptionally talented. They dressed appropriately for our wedding theme and many of the guests at the Hawthorne Hotel wanted to take pictures with Karlea in her Twenties attire. In addition to being a wonderful experience, they were also a great value for the price. These are top quality musicians and we paid a reasonable price for the band.

We have a documentarian style and love capturing the candid, sweet moments shared between two people and their families. When we're not filming weddings, you can find us cuddled up with our cats, Sprout & Poppy, watching Netflix or scouring the country for the best bowl of Ramen!

We were lucky enough to have Nick and Alexa film our wedding ceremony/reception back in the fall of 2019. The video quality speaks for itself, but what must be spoken for is how kind, professional and overall amazing Nick and Alexa are to work with. Prior to the big day, they were always available to chat via video call about different things we wanted to include in the video, and they worked with us on accommodations for their travel from NJ all the way to the coast of NC. On the day itself they were able to capture every detail whilst never disrupting the flow of the wedding. They worked seamlessly with our other vendors culminating in a beautiful video that we cherish on a regular basis, and will forever. If you are looking to have a truly memorable video, look no further. Having previously worked in the wedding video industry myself, I have full confidence that there simply isn't anyone better. If you have any hesitation on booking a videographer, let this be your 'sign' that you absolutely should book Folded Crane Films. We would not remember our day as vividly without it!

At Live Picture Studios, we pride ourselves on our ability to reinvent traditional wedding videography and photography. Our philosophy is rooted in our belief that every couple is unique. It is our mission to take the time to get to know you and your love story before your wedding in order to capture the details that are personal to you. Doing so allows us to ensure that every wedding video and photo we produce is compelling and tailored to each couple's personalities.

At first, my husband and I were unsure of whether or not we wanted to spend the extra money on videography, but ended up being so glad that we did. Tan and Ryan did an amazing job of capturing all the important moments of the day, while hiding in plain sight, so much so that we barely knew that they were there during the ceremony and reception. They caught moments on camera that we didn’t even know they were recording. We got our highlight reel which is about 4 minutes long, but we haven’t received our longer 45 minute video yet, and we will also be receiving all of the raw footage of the day. We’ve watched the highlight reel about 50 times already and we love how perfectly they were able to capture the essence of our wedding day in a short 4 minute clip. Definitely worth the investment to be able to relive the best day ever and see all of your family and friends having a great time.

Hi! I’m Ashley Marinelli, a professional dancer who originally started making films after performing in movies and music videos. My father always encouraged me to pursue my passion for film, and when he passed in 2014, I started Marinelli Moving Pictures, a video production company with his name (and mine) on the masthead. A decade later, what started as a side jobs between dance gigs has turned into a full fledged business. Turns out I'm even happier behind the camera than in front of it!

Marinelli Moving Pictures was amazing to work with for our wedding video. Their communication throughout the process was great - Ashley was friendly, responsive, and really listened to our vision for the final product. The quality of their work was wonderful as well. They captured all the special moments and put together a video that we absolutely love watching. We were thrilled with the final result and would highly recommend Marinelli Moving Pictures to any couple looking for a talented videography team to document their wedding.

If I had one thing to say about my flowers it would be breathtaking. I knew that when I hired this company it was going to be a great experience. I spoke to the owner and she was absolutely amazing then I was paired with Sara and she was also amazing. She worked with me to create the perfect color pallet and flower choices. Best of all, the flowers were beautiful on the wedding day and they were fresh. I especially liked that they only use flowers without chemicals. I was going to go with fake flowers to avoid the chemicals until I foound this company. I have nothing but the best things to say about them and my flowers were more beautiful than my cousin who got married a few months ago and thought she was going to have a better wedding than me. Thank you sincerely flowers. You guys and your flowers were perfect!

My husband and I were planning a celebration in Hoboken for the fall of ’24 and when it came time to book our DJ, I knew that I wanted to book with 4AM without question. Having worked with Madison Janice before (I work in hospitality events), I already knew that they are the absolute best at what they do and would match us with the perfect DJ. That they did, and soon we were connected with DJ TRE, who’s an absolute ray of sunshine KILLER DJ. When certain circumstances forced us to rethink the wedding location and cancel the Hoboken event, we needed to regroup and change our original plans. We eventually decided on a smaller, intimate event in Malibu, and the 4AM team was BEYOND accommodating and understanding and we were so grateful to learn that TRE could DJ for us on the West Coast! Tre was incredible on our big day and kept our friends and family grooving all day – she provided the perfect soundtrack to the most spectacular Malibu day. We had a relatively specific preferences that weren’t necessarily typical wedding fare and she totally understood the vibe. We really could not be more grateful to TRE and the entire 4AM team for their help in making our big day a massive success.

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.

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 :)

Hi. I’m Angelica and I’m a Brooklyn native, a momma, and gamer who has been into art since a child. I focus on capturing candid, wholehearted moments portraying your true personalities while always keeping the vibe relaxed and intimate. Your wedding is a unique and precious celebration of love. It should be fun for you and your guests. Just be yourself as I capture all the happy, emotional, romantic and quirky moments that make you and your partner who you are.

Awarded Best of Zola
Angelica captured our special day absolutely perfectly. We had hired her for our wedding that was supposed to happen in 2020 but had to be rescheduled for 3 years later due to the pandemic and through that entire time she stuck with us! She was communicative and responsive, and her shots were absolutely gorgeous. She managed to capture every single important moment of our celebration and the way she guides and corrals everyone into taking pictures that look good is nothing short of a miracle (trust me, I feel so awkward in front of the camera and I look incredible in all of my wedding shots.) If you need a photographer for your wedding, Angelica is 100% your girl.

You know those first few months that you fall in love & everything is so wonderful & terrifying & just so damn GOOD? It's that “new love” feeling & I’ve never been able to replicate that feeling with anything else, except photography. Your wedding day tells the story of your love. From that “new love” to the more comfortable kind, it is the culmination of all those moments leading up to “I do.” I consider myself the narrator of that day, telling that story and documenting your connection through my photographs.

Jenny Lebron is MA-GI-CAL!! She did our engagement photographs and they looked like something straight out of a magazine. My fiancé and I are a bit camera shy but she made us feel SUPER comfortable taking such intimate pictures. She was happy to direct the shoot when necessary but also encouraged us to share and try our own creative ideas to make the pictures super personal. She is such a kind person and I couldn't think of a more perfect photographer for us. I would (and do) recommend her to anyone who is looking their wedding photographer.
