Hi there! I’m Djaniella (or dj for short). I love storytelling, adventures, and creating connections with people. I’m attracted to a meaningful image, and being able to relive that moment in my mind. A coffee shop and an ice cream parlor is always on my list whenever I visit a new town. I love the sound of waves crashing along the shore, I love people-watching, I love basketball, I love spending time with my family, and I love good food. Thanks for visiting! Let’s work with each other :)

Where do I even begin to express the sheer delight of working with DJ on my wedding day? From the moment we first met, I knew I was in for something special. DJ's exceptional skills as a photographer not only met but exceeded all my expectations, making my wedding day an absolute dream come true! From the very start, DJ's warm and personable nature put everyone at ease. It was like having a girlfriend by our side, capturing every precious moment. As the day unfolded, her talent shined through, beautifully capturing the essence of our emotions and the magic of the occasion. The candid photos DJ captured are my absolute favorite! DJ's ability to handle even the most rambunctious of groomsmen was nothing short of amazing. She effortlessly navigated through the challenges of the day. Even with a group of boys who had indulged in a bit too much, DJ skillfully guided them into perfect poses, resulting in some of the most cherished and candid shots. Throughout the entire process, DJ displayed a level of patience and professionalism that left a lasting impression. She expertly orchestrated the wedding party, ensuring everyone was organized and ready for their moment in front of the camera. The way she managed to capture everyone’s personality while maintaining the cohesiveness of the group shots was truly commendable. There was not one person missed! DJ made sure I had a photo was each family member, which I am extremely grateful for. It felt as though DJ was more than just a photographer; she became an integral part of our wedding day, seamlessly blending in with our friends and family. The rapport she built with us was evident in the photographs! In the end, the pictures surpassed anything I could have imagined. DJ's talent and dedication to her craft have given us a treasure trove of memories that we will cherish for a lifetime. Her ability to create such a relaxed and enjoyable experience on our special day truly made all the difference. I can wholeheartedly say that DJ is not only an incredibly photographer but also a wonderful person, and I would recommend her to anyone seeking a photographer who can turn their wedding day into an absolute masterpiece! You can see capturing moments is what she LOVES to do!

We believe in prompting over posing. That gives our style the natural, emotional and authentic look we are going for.

Awarded Best of Zola
Orchard Street Photography was a preferred vendor on a list that our venue (The North Shore House) provided to us. After speaking with Julian for the first time, it was an instant match. My husband and I explained that we were looking for an authentic, unstaged, photojournalistic depiction of our wedding day. When we looked at the pictures, we wanted to be able to feel exactly how we felt that day. We got married last week and from the sneak peaks that we’ve seen Julian and Sarah captured that, despite inclement weather! We couldn’t imagine our wedding without either of them! We had two photographers for 8 hours, which was able to cover getting ready photos, the ceremony, family portraits, and the reception. Never having planned a wedding before, Julian was completely honest with us, shared his professional opinions, and advised based on our requests. His laid back demeanor, go-with-the-flow attitude and artistic vision complemented our day perfectly. We had three children in our wedding party and he was so great with them as well. From the two pictures they’ve shared on social media, they’ve captured exactly what we wanted. Can’t wait to see the rest! Book this Orchard Street, I promise you won’t regret it!

We are so happy with the pictures Andrea took of us on one wedding we worked together! Thanks to those pictures we got to book so many other weddings to play at. Sometimes photographers don’t pu to much attention to the musicians, understandably so, however it’s so helpful to all vendors at the wedding to be able to get a little footage to promote the work we do.

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?

Cannot recommend Ben enough! We did our engagement pictures with Ben ahead of our wedding and they were 1000/10. He is a master at finding the perfect lighting and did the perfect mix of the more modern photos we love and the more traditional ones our parents/grandparents love. My husband and I are both terrible at posing but Ben kept us comfortable and laughing our entire wedding day and made our photos look so natural! He is hilarious and brought such positive energy the entire day - everyone in our bridal party couldn’t say enough wonderful things about Ben! Ben even gave us a few preview physical prints during our reception which was such a beautiful touch! Can’t recommend Ben enough!

Felipe, and his team. I reached out to him about a year before the wedding. Felipe immediately scheduled a zoom call, walked me through the process, and upon talking to him I knew immediately that he is truly a visionary. Felipe talked to me about what I wanted, made me feel super comfortable, and was also extremely responsive. On the day of the wedding, while many things were going wrong, he not only was the videographer but was also there to calm me, talk to me, and continuously assured me that everything would be perfect in the video. His team was amazing to work with. I got a sneak peek, preview and then the full video so quick I could not believe it. The quality of the videography, the editing, and sound was excellent. By far one of the best choices I made when it came to my wedding was hiring F-records and their team for the videography. Oh did I mention that he also held the umbrella for me, walked me to car, helped me with my dress, and made sure to just be amazing! Felipe definitely went above and beyond for me! I could not be more glad to have hired F-records.

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!).

Diana and Korey Photo and Film are absolutely the best in the biz and just AMAZING people all around! I cannot say enough good things about them and their GORGEOUS photos. Diana came out to Colorado to shoot my micro wedding, and we couldn't be happier with how our photos came out and how the day went. She gave us all the poses (because we had no idea), positioned my veil and train each time, had an eye for the best shots, and made the entire process seamless and fun. She helped us plan all the family portrait combinations in advance, and thought of all the tiny details that made our photos extra special. They gave us some sneak peeks right away and set good expectations on when the rest of the photos would be done, and delivered them on time! They are professional, easy to work with, punctual, kind, enthusiastic and take stunning photos that are really works of art. I couldn't have asked for a better team to capture our wedding and I'm so grateful for them. Hire them! You will not regret it.

Adam is the best of the best! After scrolling through his photography we knew he would be our perfect choice, but after meeting him, our choice was solidified. Adam is easy going but professional which was portrayed during our first meeting with him. We shared similar styles of wedding photography showcasing the emotions of the day with raw, lighthearted candids vs strict poses with serious faces. We booked an engagement session with Adam, which was a great way for us to get comfortable in front of the camera and get to know Adam more. He allowed us plenty of time to get all the shot locations we wanted and gave us excellent cues to allow for natural poses. We felt at ease with Adam as if it was a best friend taking our photos. Throughout wedding planning, Adam was always there with a quick email response. He is organized, detail oriented and planned a check in with us before the wedding to ensure everything would go smoothly. He truly listened to what we wanted and what our goals were for the wedding day. On the day of our wedding, Adam was the most calm, attentive, and down to earth photographer. My husband and I had the best day of our lives and if you look through our pictures, Adam captured it perfectly. We like to think every part of our day went so smoothly because we had Adam on our side. He seamlessly got through all our family photos and made certain we got all the photos we had planned for. Although, we honestly loved Adam so much because he snapped away during all the moments, planned versus not planned. He has incredible ability to snap photos where you can see emotions and bring you right back to that moment. I cried tears of happiness when we received our sneak peek photos because they were everything and more I could have ever dreamed of. Our family and friends have consistently raved about Adam, not only for his beautiful photos, but the way he conducts himself. Hiring Adam was the best decision we could have ever made and we cannot recommend him enough!

We were on the hunt for the perfect band for my wedding on Zola, WeddingWire and The Knot. My fiancé and I wanted to find a band that had no negative reviews. We came across bands with 500 reviews, but after reading some bad feedback, we started feeling concerned. Fortunately, we stumbled upon Loveday band, which had nothing but positive reviews - and it turned out to be the best decision we made! When we visited their website, we were delighted to hear their organic sound, which sounded so close to the original songs on their promotional video. After reaching out to them for more information, we had a couple of chats, and finally set a date to meet at my parent's house. It was a fantastic meeting; everyone loved Marcel. He was funny and went over all the details. We were sold and decided to go with them. Our wedding was absolutely amazing, from the ceremony to the reception. Loveday band's talented musicians brought the house down and lived up to everything we saw in their promotional video. They sounded incredible and kept the guests dancing all night on a packed dance floor. There wasn't a single guest at their table during the reception! We received compliments from every guest about the band we hired. I would highly recommend Loveday band to friends or anyone looking for a band for their big day. Many thanks to Loveday band for delivering a perfect evening performance! Doug & Jenny

A small studio in Union NJ with big plans! I have been a photographer for 6 years working as a freelancer. Learning on the field like back in the day is the best way to learn everything about photography. Starting a Zola is the first step to branch from a freelancer to a business owner / photographer. Im starting my own business for my baby, Xavier. Working at your wedding helps me be with my family longer.

I got the Photo / Video / DJ package deal with free selfie booth. They came an hour early to make sure everything was setup, I even got an extra hour of photos taken while the videographer was putting together his gizmo. He recommended Drawlines Studio for video which they did a fabulous job putting the video together. There DJ was perfect, had a speaker system for the ceremony and for the venue. The fog machine, sparklers and TVs really made my moments with my husband and dad special. The wedding album and parent albums are such good quality. Over all everything was perfect. Thank you for everything!!

Hi, I’m Cathy Melando—Congrats on your engagement! I’m a registered officiant in NJ and licensed in NY. I create personalized, meaningful ceremonies that reflect each couple’s unique love story. I also write custom scripts for first-time officiants. Whether you're planning a small gathering or a big celebration, I offer traditional or modern ceremonies for all couples.

Cathy is highly skilled, competent, friendly, communicative, and above all else, she will go above and beyond to make sure your ceremony is PERFECT. You can not go wrong if you chose her for your special day, for anything from completely traditional, or, if you’re like us, completely non-traditional and unique. Thank you, Cathy, for making our special day one we will remember fondly for the rest of our lives!

David was exactly what we were hoping for in a photographer and I couldn’t have asked for someone better to capture our perfect day. From our first phone call to getting our photos, David has been there for us and going above and beyond to help us and make sure our planning was going okay and just life in general. We were looking for a creative photographer to put their own spin on our photos and get some unique poses and shots and David checked that box over and over again. David uses modern technology to ensure he captures the best of your moments and enhances the environment around you for just an even better product. Above all, we felt like we made a friend due to David’s positive attitude, the laughs we shared, and eagerness to capture YOUR moment. He is obviously a master of his craft and I recommend him to anyone that is looking for creativity in their photos, while also still capturing classy and classic poses. David is an incredible photographer that I simply can’t recommend enough.
