Hyde Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,000
  • Serves Westwood, NJ

We're a husband/wife photography duo. We're college sweethearts and we're currently expecting our first child in June 2021! We are so happy to be in this business but we didn’t always know we’d become wedding photographers. Seth spent about 10 years in video production (aka the equipment expert) and Nicole is an advertising art director (aka the artsy perfectionist).

We are beyond thrilled with our experience with Hyde Photography and cannot recommend them highly enough! Seth and his team were absolutely incredible to work with throughout the entire wedding planning process. From our initial consultation to the final delivery of our photos, they made us feel at ease and captured every moment with such artistry and skill. On our wedding day, Seth and his team were not only professional but also made everyone feel relaxed and comfortable in front of the camera. They had a wonderful knack for making us laugh and ensuring that our personalities shined through in every photograph. What impressed us the most was how seamlessly they integrated into our day, capturing all the important moments while allowing us to be fully present and enjoy our wedding. They were punctual to every event, organized, and attentive to detail, which made the day run smoothly. The photos we have seen so far are absolutely stunning – they truly captured the essence of our day and will be cherished memories for years to come. We would jump at the chance to work with Seth and Hyde Photography again in the future and can't thank them enough for their exceptional work and professionalism. If you're looking for a photographer who delivers beautiful, high-quality images and a stress-free experience, look no further than Hyde Photography!

Dawnpoint Studios

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $7,000
  • Serves Westwood, NJ

I'm Angelica, the owner of Dawnpoint Studios! I'm an adventurous and internationally requested wedding/elopement photographer with a focus on sustainability! Here's an unexpected fact - I hated weddings when I first started second shooting them. It broke my heart to see couples being rushed, overwhelmed, and not truly having any connection to couples. That's what drove my passion to breath a fresh air into the wedding experience! Plan with intention, focus on being present, and building genuine relationships with couples! You should be heard, appreciated, and understood. You should feel encouraged to get married your way.

Awarded Best of Zola
Read for my true heartfelt experience with Angelica at Dawnpoint, but in short - hire her. This should be the easiest decision you make in your wedding planning journey. I came across Dawnpoint after she documented the wedding of someone I know. Those pictures felt so authentic and real. They took me right to the event and made me feel so much. I knew I needed to meet her. From my initial zoom meeting with Angelica, we hit it off. I said I wanted to get the best views in our pictures. She was on board right away. For our engagement pictures, she took us on a hike. Chris and I showed up in hiking gear with our formal wear in our packs. So did Angelica. This may seem so minuscule but for two people who had never been photographed and just wanted someone to make them feel comfortable and to capture something real, this made us trust her from the get go. Needless to say, those pictures were amazing. We even used them for our save the dates! Fast forward to our wedding day in Lake Placid on June 15, 2024. My goals were ambitious but Angelica was on board every step of the way. From creating the timeline to executing the plan the day of, it was the least stressful part of our day. What I loved most was that she listened to my vision and incorporated it in everything she did that day. I even forgot that I wanted a specific picture of my dress, but she definitely did not. When I was getting ready, she had my bridal party share personal stories of us and it was so sweet, I felt so connected to the people closest to me that day and it helped me stay grounded and present from the beginning. For our first look, we wanted to meet at the top of Whiteface Mountain. This was 40 minutes away from our venue and logistically a lot of things could go wrong. Yet, Angelica was a smiling face reassuring me that we could do it. Everything from asking for us to skip the elevator line, to clearing the space on Whiteface for Chris and I to get our moment. I was and remain truly speechless of how she actually made this happen. The pictures speak for themselves. After, we returned to our venue and without delay resumed with a first look with my dad (which I added last minute and was meeted with so much excitement from Angelica). One of my favorite parts was golden hour pictures. I take zero credit here. This was Angelica’s idea and I am so thankful. It was a truly beautiful and authentic experience to photograph the newly wed joy I felt. This is just one of so many ways in which Angelica showed that she was as present and invested in our day as we were. After receiving my sneak preview pictures, I was honestly met with so much emotion. I was brought right back to each moment and exactly how I was feeling. I am truly blown away because if anyone can get a picture to tell a thousand words, it is Angelica. She perfectly captured our day and was the single most best decision I made that day. Unsolicited feedback from my guests: “Your photographer smiled the entire night! She looked like she was having so much fun!” This was feedback I got multiple times and it goes to show much Angelica loves her job! P.S. Jake, her second shooter, was also an absolute pleasure. Together, their energy was infectious.

There is nothing I love more than photographing weddings - a day full of raw emotion and I get to document and make art of out it! I'm a newlywed so I totally get what you're going through! We recently adulted hard and bought a house - next up is a dog! Please tag me in all funny dog videos :) I love occasionally working out, always eating cookies, and watching nonstop romantic comedies - especially while I edit (let's not talk about how many times I've seen Dirty Dancing). Can't wait to meet you!

I actually met Michelle through one of my friends (as Michelle was the photographer for her wedding!!). I knew as soon as I saw my friends wedding photos that I wanted her to do mine as well. My husband and I absolutely loved working with Michelle. She was extremely easy to communicate with (which was important to us as we were planning a wedding out of state) and was extremely prompt her replies when we had questions! I cant even begin to tell you how much I appreciated having her there as she was able to help keep everything running smoothly and on time! She had such great energy on the day of the wedding it made taking pictures very easy (even when I was super nervous!). She also has the best dad jokes to help ease everyone up if needed! I was extremely impressed by the quality of the photos, the timeliness in which we received them, and the communication we had with her after the wedding. She beautifully captured amazing memories from the greatest day of our lives!!

Awarded Best of Zola
Kimberly is an expert. And we would recommend her to anyone. My partner was a groomsmen in a wedding that Kimberly was the photographer for and he was so impressed by her presence and efficiency (not to mention we both loved her photography) that we immediately reached out when it came to our wedding.  Her ability to capture the best and sweetest moments without feeling like we were surrounded by cameras is truly a super power. We were floored by the incredible images she took. Not only did she manage the schedule based off of the photos we wanted to take, but her talent is evident in the countless pictures we have from our wedding weekend that look back on this special milestone. She captured the essence of our day in ways that felt natural to my partner and me -- and to us, that's the mark of an expert photographer.  Kimberly also balances this ability to wield a calm and warm energy while commanding a large room of people to get a photo together -- which is not easy. Her energy and grace is exactly what you need on a stressful day filled with places to be and schedules to follow. She was truly our favorite person to work with leading up to and during the weekend. Easy, efficient, communicative and most importantly kind.  Photos are important to look back on the day you've spent so much time preparing for and we would put our faith in Kimberly all over again for future events and endless recommendations to other couples. We are forever grateful for the beautiful pictures she took of us.

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 :)

Awarded Best of Zola
Our experience with Djaniella was amazing from the start. Our engagement shoot where we first met gave my husband and I the utmost confidence of our decision to book with Dj. She is fun, cool, calm, and creative- something we prioritized in finding our photographer. Our wedding day was obviously stressful and at times overwhelming, however Dj was always there and effortlessly brought calm into the room. She was highly complemented by our friends and family for being so kind and easy to work with. Clearly her work is incredibly beautiful as well, when she delivered "sneak peak" photos (the same night as the wedding may I add), both my husband and I were tearful. Of all of our vendors, I felt the most comfortable and myself throughout the day when with her. We would book her a million times over again, I cant recommend her enough!

Hi, I’m Andrea! a Latina wedding film photographer based in NJ/NYC. With 7 years in portrait photography and 2 years dedicated to weddings, I’m passionate about capturing love stories. Weddings inspire me as they are unique moments where communities unite in pure joy and love. Being part of the LGBTQI+ community, I ensure my space is safe and welcoming for all marriers. When not behind the camera, I love traveling back home, crocheting, taking care of my chosen family, and creating in my photo lab! Each moment I capture is a testament to my love for love.

Andrea has a knack for adapting to any situation that comes up at a photography event. The things I noticed most are a keen sense of what needs to be done and how it should be approached. This is a very collaborative team oriented person who will always be in the right place when you need them. Andrea is also very decisive and does not hesitate or over-complicate things. I found Andrea to be kind, open and polite to guests and our clients. I couldn't really ask for more than that. I especially appreciated Andrea's work with the TLR camera.

One of the most important aspects of a photo is the emotion it conveys. While I have years of training and experience, photographing love cannot be reduced to lighting and angles. ​ Well before your special day. I hear my client's love story. This helps me create eye-catching images that portray the kind of affection that is unique to each couple. I pride myself in being a storyteller-photographer.

Anj did our surprise proposal, engagement shoot, and wedding and we couldn’t be happier with how it turned out and the experience it was working with her! She had no problem traveling to our destinations (nyc and Boston area) and was on time and professional. She was wonderful working with special requests to craft a perfect experience. You can tell she really enjoys her job which made it really fun for us and allowed us to soak up some of our biggest moments. I highly recommend working with her as she will make you feel comfortable, craft your event to your liking, and execute the product beautifully!

From your getting ready details to your final send off, I blend in seamlessly and document the day like a friend, keeping it fun and stress free. With a style that is timeless and not bound to the trends of the moment, I capture each couple in a unique way and I see you for you.

Working with Bryan was a joy. He is communicative, kind, relaxed, and so skilled in his art. He took the time to get to know us as a couple first and then as clients, which I'm sure helped his understanding of what we wanted and needed to capture. He knew the prompts to suggest to create gorgeous photos and was willing to work with is with the many things we wanted to try during portraits and the reception (including dealing with rain and a huge group photo where he graciously accepted standing on a chair to get the shot). He was thorough and got every shot that we asked for and used his talent and skill to give us many more that have become our favorites. The photos were given to us extremely fast and at a beautiful quality – everyone we've shown them to adores them. He was accommodating on the day and the result is nothing short of stunning – it helps us relive the day in clarity, which is priceless.

My name is Jia, I am a lover of Seafood, Peking Duck, and Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Lattes. I also love to see people smile. I believe that all smiles are contagious, this is why I chose wedding photography: it magically makes me smile more. I love the warm sunlight and true emotions from both the bride and the groom. Now looking back, I am really thankful that clients appreciate my artistic vision more than my professional equipment. PS: Personally, I’d avoid the moon but I am more than happy to photograph you anywhere on earth. :)

I don’t even know where to begin to describe just how amazing Jia is as not only a photographer but a videographer as well. I had initially found him through my best friend Sam, who he had done BOTH photo and video for, and I was blown away by his amazing work. He was kind enough to do the videography for my wedding and I am so grateful that he did. Not only does he do amazing work, but he is professional, kind, pays attention to every detail, and he ended up being the life of the party at the wedding. All of my guests adored him, and he made everyone feel so comfortable. When my husband and I received our video, we were both in tears. You can really tell how much time and effort Jia put into it. If you are in search of a photographer or videographer do not hesitate to book Jia from Frame Your Love Photography. You surely will not regret it!! attached are some screen shots from my wedding video because they are just too good not to share.

Storytelling by Tony & Olya

We are Storytellers | We observe and capture what we see through our lens and narrate the story that we witnessed with all the emotions and sentiments that come with the memories. We have been telling stories for many years, sometimes we can predict the plot, sometimes we still get surprised. We are always looking for the next amazing story to tell.

Awarded Best of Zola
Olya and Tony are on a completely different level. It’s truly art when you watch someone love what they do. They are professionals and skilled craftsmen. For example, we originally planned to have our first look at a nearby park, but they suggested that we book a private area instead. Both my fiancé and I were skeptical and unsure if we should, since it required us to spend a little more. All I can say is that I’m glad we did. You can’t control the weather, and on the day of our wedding, it rained. Thanks to their advice, we have some of the best photos I’ve ever seen. During our first look, Tony directed me on where to stand, while Olya guided the bride. She fixed her dress when needed and noticed minor details most people would overlook. And don’t get me started on the actual wedding—Tony, like a magician, was able to capture key moments and genuine reactions. During out wedding both Tony and Olya directed us on how to stand, where we should place our hands and which way we should look. They communicated with us and coached us through each photo. Before the wedding they helped us plan a timeline and were quick to respond if we needed to make changes. The two of them are a blast to have around and the results are something else. I couldn’t be happier with how things turned out.

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.

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.

Sarai came recommended in a wedding group I was in, and we could not have been more pleased with our decision to hire her for our intimate courthouse wedding. From our very first interaction, Sarai was incredibly responsive, friendly, and collaborative in helping us plan the perfect November morning around lower Manhattan. My husband and I have varying degrees of comfort with pictures, yet she was able to capture both staged shots and joyful, candid moments that made our wedding day so memorable. Sarai took the time to get to know us as a couple and brought out our goofy, playful sides without even trying. She went above and beyond anything we could have imagined, delivering the best value for the incredible quality of her work. Sarai is not only an incredibly talented photographer, but a genuinely kind and personable human being. We cannot recommend Sari Photography highly enough for any couple looking to document their wedding day with beautiful, timeless imagery.

Relive the moments as you experienced them. When it comes to your wedding, what are you most excited about? The ceremony? Dancing the night away with family and friends? Indulging in the emotion of the day? The photos are important so you can relive each memorable moment. But the moments are only memorable if you take the time to experience them in the first place. This way, you'll not only experience the moments of your wedding day - you'll remember them well. Who better to photograph your experiences than a husband and wife team who understands the importance of this day. And the moments that shape it.

Awarded Best of Zola
Ishan and Preeti are incredible people and artists. So talented, creative, artistic, fun and affordable. No cheesy typical wedding photos here! Our pictures are one of a kind. For our engagement photos, Ishan and Preeti were willing to drive aroubd local towns and take photos at numerous locations that meant something special to us. They are so creative with light and texture and are daring to go anywhere. And then our wedding day..Oh My Goodness. I have never seen such beautiful photos. We got married in Montauk, NY and after our first look, we went out by the lighthouse and took photos over the bluffs. They are INCREDIBLE!!!!!!!!!! We got married at a yacht club and we had mentioned to Ishan how we would love a photo on a big yacht. He again rose to the occasion. We found friendly boat owners who let us board their yacht and Ishan got photos of us opening champagne and drone photos of us lying on the bow. He thinks on his feet and comes up with awesome photos in any circumstance. Ishan Fotografi really captured the highlights of the wedding perfectly. The photos were available by the time we were back from our honeymoon. We just received our album, which is not only breathtaking, but really tells the story of the wedding day.

Jason and his team were absolutely amazing on our special day. From the beginning of our time with him, he offered budget friendly plans that included so many perks that most photographers/videographers do not offer. My husband and I choose the highest package because we couldn't turn down all that it had to offer. Not only did we get a beautiful engagement shoot, we got another shoot we can use for the future, we received a leather bound guest book for our guests to sign, a scrapbook with messages of all the photo booth pictures our guests took, a highlight video of our special day, and all day coverage capturing all the special moments from beginning to end. Jason even tried something new and did a same day edit slideshow for us during our reception. He is so personable to work with and ensures you feel comfortable taking pictures. He accepts feedback and really works with you to create a unique experience specific for the people he's working with. We will continue to use Jason Pierce Photography for all of our special life moments! Thank you for a job that exceeded our expectations!!

Out of all the various art mediums I believe photography is the most personal. There is a certain degree of trust that is bestowed upon the artist to truly capture a moment and allow it to transcend the test of time. I truly love my job. My work will tell your story. My passion is to highlight, document and capture that story artfully. My commitment is to deliver the highest quality images while not compromising the importance of your day, always mindful that this is your day and your moment. My work is colorful, textural, cinematic, and able to transform common ground places into works of art you will revisit, share, and look to forever.

There is truly nothing like selecting the perfect photographer for your engagement or wedding day. I myself and super passionate about art, design, photography and creative direction, so I knew I wanted to find a photographer that would allow me to be apart of the process in order to bring my ideas to life. Alberto and I had a few brainstorming calls where we went through my (many! Ha) mood boards, hopes, dreams and ideas for my engagement shoot in New York City. Having these calls together really solidified I made the right decision in vendor— he just fully understood where I wanted to take this shoot. I can be a tough client— I am very particular, a perfectionist if you will, and I also work in the creative industry myself. Alberto stepped up to the task gracefully and absolutely knocked it out of the park. My vision came to life from the lighting to the locations to the editing (not too much— you’ll never catch Alberto throwing a filter on you!). Lighting and editing were super key to me— there’s no one size fits all and Alberto truly finds a way to make each shoot (even photo) unique. I cannot speak more highly of Alberto and his art. His technique is Uber-personal and it really shows throughout your photos. He’ll make you feel at ease in front of the camera, and allow for your personalities (big or small!) to really shine. If you haven’t booked Alberto Media for your engagement and/or wedding, what are you waiting for?

At the end of the day, I’m just a guy that loves weddings. Both photographing them and going to one as a guest. The joy, the laughter, the butterflies in stomach. The tears. The celebration. Oh yes, the food. I believe the focal point of a good wedding photography is at the literal and creative portrayal of the emotions between the couple as well as their loved ones. My sincere hope as a wedding photographer is that one day you and your loved ones will look at the images that I created and be reminded of the amazing gratitude you feel for each other.

I proudly serve all gender identities, sexualities, races, cultures, religions, bodies, and abilities. Your love is welcome here! I am truly honored to capture your special day and celebrate with you the beginning of this new chapter in your lives.

Wow. This woman is not only a great photographer but an all-around great person. Just my upfront vibes from her made me feel so comfortable during our engagement shoot. She gave us a suggestion of a location and she really helped us out when it came to different poses that would work and different photo ops. I was so excited when I got the engagement photos back and when she arrived at my wedding venue the day of the wedding I knew that I could trust her to capture our wedding beautifully. I got some sneak peaks and I am in love. I cannot wait to get the rest of the photos. I would hands-down recommend her as a photographer to anyone! I found her on this app and it was one of the best decisions I’ve made for my wedding.

On wedding days, I want my couples to know that I'm there to capture more than just portraits in the perfect golden hour lighting. Photos should bring you back to the day they were taken, the same way that souvenirs bring you back to a trip or country that you absolutely loved. To me, being a wedding photographer means more than just taking photos at a party. It's about taking the right photos that will have the right impact; the ones that will transport you through movement, colors, and vantage points right back into that incredible day. That's why "more than just portraits" is the best way to summarize what I photograph on wedding days.

Stop your search and book Olivia- she is AMAZING!!! I knew from looking at her work immediately that we had to have her for our wedding and she went above and beyond. Her work is stunning - she captures the most beautiful photos where you can feel the emotion behind them. She is also so kind, so professional, and makes you feel perfectly at ease on a day that can often feel so hectic. We could not be happier that we had Olivia photograph our wedding day.

Hey, I'm Jaimee with two "E"s. I'm a New Jersey based Lifestyle Portrait and Wedding Photographer. I'm also a wife, new mom, and mediocre latte artist. Entertaining family and friends in my home is one of my favorite things to do. The more the merrier. Come over and I'll make you a latte. I promise. When I'm not working you can usually find me with my hair in a bun and a cute baby on my hip, or cuddling on the couch with my husband in our matching robes with our dogs watching a good crime series.

Jaimee was awesome to work with. She was friendly, warm, and most of all amazing at what she does! We found Jaimee through Instagram and felt her style was exactly what we wanted. It was clean, straight forward, and really captured the moment the people she was photographing were in. When we first did our engagement shoot was the first time we met Jaimee in person, she was personable, relaxed, and didn’t rush us. We were able to do an outfit change (in the woods while Jaimee shielded us with a blanket lol) and she had some great ideas. For two people who had never done professional photos, Jaimee made it really easy to be ourselves. We also shared aPinterest board in order to share ideas prior to the session which was helpful to get a sense of where we were all at. We continued meeting with Jaimee to lock down details for the wedding. She has us fill out a questionnaire with all the important information so she had it all in one place. She kept a schedule and frequently checked in throughout the planning process to ensure we were all still on the same page. She was even a good sport towards the big day when we asked her to meet and talk with us a few times. The second shooter she got for the big day was great as well and was similar in style to Jaimee. Jaimee even set up a video call for us all to meet so we didn’t feel like strangers the day of. Jaimee worked well with our vendors and ensured everything that needed to be captured was. We didn’t even notice them much throughout the whole evening which meant they fit right in, weren’t intrusive, and still got all the shots we wanted. Jaimee truly listened to what we wanted all while doing a great job wrangling together all the people we wanted photos with. Can’t wait to use Jaimee again for various occasions in the future :)

Passionate about customer service. The quality of work speaks for itself. We've maintained a perfect 5 star rating for over 16 years in the business. See what everyone is saying for yourself. Pricing, reviews and portfolios can be found on the website. Photo, video and photo-booth services.

I found Jason at a wedding expo and I instantly loved his work. He was super nice and we stayed in touch until I was ready to book. He was super helpful and responded to any questions I had very quickly and professionally. You can tell that he takes pride in his work and only hires the best of the best. When it got closer to the wedding, Jason was super attentive to all the things we wanted and helped us figure out our timeline as well since we were completely clueless about this. On our wedding day, my husband got to work with Tom and Frank and we LOVED them. They were super fun, attentive, and just great people to have as our photographer and videographer. We felt like they were our guests by the end of the night! After the wedding, when we got our photos and video, we were completely blown away. The details of the photos was amazing and we were extremely impressed on how beautiful everything came out. We couldn't have ask for anyone else. They did a fantastic job and I highly recommend them to anyone planning a wedding!!

We are NJ wedding photographers who enjoy capturing life’s timeless moments for you to cherish. We’re New Jersey natives, a husband and wife duo, raising our little girl and Sheepadoodle pup on the east coast. Your love knows no bounds and we would love the privilege to get behind the scenes of your love and capture the raw, organic, and intimate moments. We love weddings for what they represent. Two people giving all of themselves to each other for the world to see.

Alberto and his assistant photographer brought the ultimate experience to our New York City wedding day on 02/24/24! From the very start we knew we wanted Alberto (we call him Chris) to shoot our wedding because of his beautiful film photography & style to his work. He’s professional, educated, passionate, creative & intentional in every detail of his work. When we hired him in November 2023, we had 4 calls where we discussed details, plans, vision, & what to expect. He knows his craft very well and is always making sure his couples are happy and comfortable throughout the process. Him and his assistant photographer were with us from Getting Ready to First Touch to the Altar and lastly, our party! They move efficiently & proactively, never leaving room for error and always leaving time for preparation & fun! I would hire Alberto & his team 10x more, & we cannot wait to see the full gallery. The few snippets alone took our breath away, we can’t even imagine all the hard work they’re putting into our photos. If you hire Alberto, you will not be disappointed!!!
