Our couples live and love in the moment. You know the ones. They live for adventures and sunsets, know the best places to eat, probably have an awesome dog and a secret handshake. Our style can be defined as modern and vivid photography, with just a touch of moody. We love capturing those perfect candid moments, but include just enough posed photos to make mom, dad, and your future gallery wall happy.

Awarded Best of Zola
Wild Hearts was the best photographer you could ask for on your wedding day! Kamelia is great at communicating throughout the entire process. Ahead of the wedding day we had a comprehensive 45 min conversation before I booked her about vision. She actually helped me get a timeline set up for the day and gave me a list of other recommended vendors which I used to find my hair/makeup stylist. It was very easy because the payments were broken up over time so nothing snuck up on you. About 1 week before my fiancé and I met up with Kamelia over brunch to discuss the locations of all the shots we planned on taking, the color scheme, all family members for those photos, and to get more comfortable with each other. I really appreciated this. The day of the wedding I could ask for nothing better. Kamelia is very organized and kept the whole day running with great direction. It was easy to follow her direction to set up poses and get some candid shots. Allyson was the other photographer and really got along with the groom and the groomsmen. They knew all of the good spots around Asbury Park and the board walk to get photos. The best times that my husband and I had was when it was just us and the photographers walking around Asbury Park Boardwalk. We were all vibing having a great time and I really think that made the photos even better. They are both such lovely and professional individuals to work with and it shows. Both photographers took INCREDIBLE photos. You always want your wedding photos to turn out great but these exceeded my expectations. Every single person at my wedding has nothing but incredible things to say about the photos. I would highly recommend Wild Hearts if you are getting married in or around Asbury Park. They were beyond a pleasure to work with.

I was a makeup teacher for a couple of years and I genuinely love what I do. The best part of my job is being apart of someone’s special day or event. I hope we get the chance to work together!

I can't thank her enough for her outstanding professional work!!! Alison perfectly achieved the soft curls and half ponytail I wanted, and her work lasted all day!!!! I danced, sweated, and even did pirouettes, yet my hair and curlers remained impeccable! (This is especially impressive since my natural hair is extremely straight!). They were professional, punctual, kind, and patient. One advantage for me was that they had previously worked at Park Chateau, making navigating the venue easy. Overall, communication with Alison and her team was excellent and prompt. My mom and bridesmaid LOVED their hair and makeup as well. My mom kept saying she couldn't believe how good it looked—it was like she had an Instagram filter on! I highly recommend her 100000000000!! I am incredibly grateful!!!!

This Insane Idea Photography 

4.8

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,250
  • Serves Forked River, NJ

We are Mark & Brittany Edman, NJ based wedding team. Mark created “This Insane Idea” with the vision that anything is possible. As your lead shooter, he had a passion for photography his entire life, capturing moments around him in the most authentic ways until one day Brittany told him “go full time”, it was insane. He fell in love with wedding photography and the emotion it brought out for everyone involved. Coming home so happy with unique stories and photos from all over the state, Brittany knew she needed to join him on wedding days. Having a background in hospitality for 20 years Brittany began coordinating the day alongside Mark.

When it comes to Mark and his team, I don’t even know where to start. Everyone always said to me, “when you find the right photographer, you’ll know.” I had no idea what that meant, and browsed dozens of vendors- until my venue (The Inn at Millrace Pond) tagged This Insane Idea in one of their Instagram photos. We knew immediately that we had to book Mark. We went above our initial budget, and we felt confident doing so- I can tell you their prices are hugely fair and they deliver what they promise. We had an extremely helped Zoom call with Mark, and at first we’re very anxious because he was going to be sending two of his staff, Tom and Kristen because he personally was unavailable our date. He ensured that Tom came with him for our engagement session. I can tell you- there was absolutely ZERO reason for us to worry, and we knew this as soon as we met Mark and Tom. Mark and his team are truly artists, and can find beauty in the best of moments- I will never forget being crouched in my beautiful gown like Gollum, plowing my way through cocktail hour food in between photos- because they captured it. I love how they captured moments that were truly US, and how their portraits still managed to capture the many huge personalities of our families, friends, and us. They were excellent at communication, and made sure we were always in the loop. They walked us through our timeline in specific detail. And on the day of, as I was trying not to have a panic attack because we were running so behind (no fault of the photographers), Kristen and Tom more than kept it together, which made us feel so relaxed. They made sure to include a portrait of me and the ladies of my family where we were holding my mom’s wedding album, and I can’t tell you how much it meant to me. Even our detail photos were exceptional. I find myself looking at our photos frequently; reliving each moment they captured. We are so incredibly grateful to them for everything they did for us. I also wish I could express how important our engagement photos they took for us are to us. I weirdly am getting emotional writing this, because while you hire vendors and hope for the best- This Insane Idea gave us more than the best. I cannot recommend them enough!

Penney and the team at Blossom & Bee are incredibly talented. We found them on instagram less than two months out, a little desperate to find the right florist who understood our vision. We wanted wild, organic florals with rich and a hint of soft colors to really make our day stand out and they totally delivered. They were so kind and caring the day of, making sure we loved our chuppah and everything. We cannot recommend this team enough, we already are telling our friends getting married that they have to check them out. Also, reasonably priced considering how gorgeous their work is!

Photography is more than a few crisp images, it’s the gift of being able to tell someone else’s story through art. Being behind the camera comes with the privilege of being present for people’s most intimate and special moments. I was born and raised in Central Jersey, and throughout my life photography has been at the center. Over 10 years ago, I took the leap and took my love of the craft to new levels by creating Cyan Blue Photography.

We had an incredible time working with Jillian for our wedding. We aren't exactly photo people, but Jillian made us tell comfortable in front of the camera. So much so that she really captured our personalities! She completely saw our goal for the day and captured exactly what we wanted, which was a lot of joy! We loved working with her!

I enjoy doing both because I love the thrill of operating a camera and I love people and stories! I have shot over 300 weddings and I edit everything myself. In my spare time I love swimming, hiking, skiing, traveling with my family, writing and learning all kinds of stuff. I’m very curious about the world!

Fen is absolutely wonderful!! I found Fen Video on Zola and was immediately struck by the fact that I recognized one of the brides in the promo trailers as an old friend from my home town. I took that as a great sign and reached out to Fen and only Fen to ask about being our videographer. We corresponded a few times to exchange ideas, locations, details etc and everything was always very simple and easy. Day of the wedding, Fen worked closely with our photographer and together they coordinated our First Look photo shoot, which they both captured beautifully. Fen left early to set up at the church and tactfully set up several cameras to capture all the important moments of our traditional Orthodox ceremony. She was very respectful of the priest and the church customs. At the reception, she was EVERYWHERE. Slipping in and out of dance circles, capturing the different buffet lines, catching beautiful intimate moments between us and our guests, even getting right in the middle of our Greek dance circle. It was amazing! She was so sweet and generous with her time and efforts. Watching the footage back, she truly captured every special moment we could remember from that night and so many we didn’t even know were happening. Her style is simple, classic, and focused on the special personal moments. My husband and I are so grateful for Fen!

HIiii!! I’m Melissa! I’m a Wedding & Boudoir Photographer based out of Asbury Park, though I’m originally from Florida. I’ve been in the wedding industry since 2017, and I’ve loved every minute of it. I am all about being your hype person, connecting with you and creating an authentic friendship that yields a great experience and amazing photos. I love to capture my couples naturally and authentically, while adding an artistic touch to our photos. I can’t wait to hear from you!!

From the first meet up to the tagging of photos in instagram- Melissa is the best. We went over the run down of who is in what photo groups and she very smoothly helped when there was a last minute change up!! It felt like we had known each other forever! Would 100% book again, hopefully she decides to add maternity shoots in the next couple years!

Hello! My name is Jeff Bien Aime I am the Founder and Lead Videographer of Flare Hill Productions. I fell in love with Wedding Filmmaking back in 2018 when I Filmed my 1st, Wedding. I remember feeling so excited but yet so nervous. After it was all I over and I delivered the Wedding Film to my client. They ended up loving it and recommending me to my next couple. Since then, I've dedicated myself and this company to creating and capturing timeless moments of our couple's special day. I realized that there's something magical about capturing the love and emotions of two people in a way that can be relived over and over again. ​

My husband and I chose videography at the last moment and we are so happy that we did. Jeffs response time was so quick before, during and after our wedding which was amazing when you need answers and feedback quickly. Jeff worked completely around our schedule and didn’t make us feel like our day was a “show” rather that he was there to document our day. He got all of the sentimental moments as well as the funny ones. He worked hard with family to recruit people to submit their messages. His assistant Christine was also very personable and did an amazing job always being right there but not intrusive. I am grateful that we chose Jeff and his team to document our day.

I'm Victoria, Owner + Lead Planner at Presley Planning with four years experience in the wedding industry and seven years in beauty marketing. My unique background is where I became the detail-oriented and creative professional that I am today (& weddings are ALL about the details!). My wedding experience includes traditional and non-traditional venues, large outdoor tented weddings and bespoke intimate ceremonies. I customize each package to my clients’ needs and make sure you're enjoying the process along the way! The only thing I love more than my husband + two pups (George + Henry), is making my clients' dream wedding vision come to life!

We got married September 17th and could not be happier with the services Victoria and her team provided for us. Victoria will become your new bff during the wedding planning process and was always happy to proofread an invitation or help me pick a napkin color. She went well above and beyond my expectations and really provided a stress free year of wedding planning. Victoria coordinated with all my vendors and handled all communication the month of my wedding. This was a huge weight off my shoulders with so many other appointments during that busy time. She provided a website that made our seating chart planning painless and everything off our wedding to-do list was completed (including things I didn’t even think of). The day of our wedding, an overwhelming sigh of relief flooded over me when Victoria walked in with a huge smile on her face, ready to conquer whatever issues arised during the day. She was resolving problems before they even became an issue and before me as the bride even caught wind of what was going on. Victoria, Shannon, and Kyle were such an important part of our big day. They handled all venue and vendor coordination during set up for the wedding and made sure everything was exactly to my liking that we discussed in the weeks leading up to our day. From running to purchase a missing bow tie for the groom to making sure I was holding my bouquet right before walking down the aisle, the Presley Planning team ensured our wedding was going to be perfect. The minute I felt a single drop of rain while taking photos, Shannon had an umbrella over my head, and Kyle always made sure I had a sip of water ready between pictures. Victoria truly thinks of everything. We had a guest feel ill and head home before dinner was served. She had their meals boxed and ran them out to the car as the guests were leaving so that they were still able to enjoy their dinners. At the end of the night, Victoria made sure everything was packed into our car, cleaned up, and sent important items and boxed dinner with my husband and I on the shuttle. Our wedding day was nothing short of magical and I truly have Victoria and her team to thank for such a perfect day. Victoria goes well above and beyond what the venue coordinators and bridal attendants do for you, essentially making sure all moving parts of your wedding day run smoothly. We highly, highly recommend Presley Planning for your wedding coordination.
