Hey all you adventurous care free lovers! Thanks for being here. My name is Alyssa and I’m a nj based wedding and elopement photographer. I travel all over the US and beyond as well. When I’m not photographing weddings you can find me curled up with a fantasy book or at the gym or hanging out with my three daughters. My style of photography can be defined as documentary. I love capturing perfect moments that are happening organically as opposed to posing you through every part of your day. I like for my couples to enjoy the day as it’s happening and not stress about every second being dictated by a photographer. Let’s chat!

We first worked with Alyssa for our engagement photos and knew we had to book her for our wedding! She was responsive, kind, helpful and helped in anyway that she could on our wedding day! The turnaround time for our photos was amazing and we are so happy with the photos! We 1000% recommend Alyssa from Oceans to Mountains Photography!

I'm Miranda, a Jersey City, NJ wedding photographer. I understand that being in front of a camera can be awkward, especially if you're not used to it. Instead of putting you in robot poses, I will guide you on moving naturally and provide prompts to evoke fun and romance. Your wedding day is a once-in-a-lifetime event, surrounded by all your favorite people and their love as they celebrate your next chapter as a married couple. It's no surprise you want wedding photos you can look back on to feel the connection, remember the moment, and share the stories. I believe photographs are like time machines, one of life's greatest treasures.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment I saw Suess Moments instagram page, I was drawn to the beauty of her images. Once my Husband and I met with Miranda, we knew we would be in great hands for our wedding day. Her strategic planning sessions prior to our day, helped us map out our wedding day, moment by moment and made our day go by smoothly. Her assistant Ashley’s attentiveness added to making us feel at home and in great hands, simply a great team! The photos came out unbelievably beautiful and we’re in the process of choosing the shots for our photo album and picture frame shots, so many to choose from! For any couple looking to capture the magic and beauty of your wedding day, look no further than Suess Moments as the only choice for your special day!

Many take pictures, it takes an eye like no other to bring together the pictures that I have seen from you all. I love every pic, some caught me differently than others and most of those were the ones that were truly "simple" or "out of the box" versus traditional, you got it all!!

Capture The Heart Of Your Wedding Day With Richard J Nieves Photography's Unobtrusive And Photojournalistic Approach To Wedding Photography And Videography. Enjoy Your Special Day Without Worrying That Your Wedding Memories Will Be Affected By Intrusive Cameras And Equipment.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Rich as the videographer for our small intimate wedding was an absolute dream. He was transparent with pricing and services offered. Response time was extremely quick and his availability to talk when I had questions was very flexible. On the day of Rich put everyone at ease. We had an intimate 25 person wedding and I was worried a professional videographer would overpower the atmosphere but he was able to blend into the background while also being right there to capture everything. He was also super helpful the whole day and I really appreciated the extra above and beyond effort he put in to help things run smoothly. The videos and stills we received back left me speechless they were so beautiful and he was able to translate the inspiration I sent in his own way and perfectly capture the day. I can’t recommend Richard J Nieves Photography enough.

I have been photographing weddings and events for 8 years, and I couldn't imagine anything more fulfilling than capturing the sweetest and most authentically beautiful moments in my couples' lives. I love making new friends in my clients and can't wait to become one of yours!

Awarded Best of Zola
It was love at first sight when I found Blooming Faith Photography on Zola! I was struck by the classic style of the portraits and natural air of those being photographed. It was exactly what I was looking for! Melissa was quick to respond to my inquiry and provided all the info I needed right off the bat. She is detailed and thorough in her correspondence and planning, which I appreciated since we only had 5 months to plan our wedding long distance. She offered an introductory Zoom consultation to discuss our vision for the photos so we could feel at ease leading up to the actual day. When the time came, Melissa was the consummate professional! We did a First Look shoot, and she lead the way completely, to avoid any awkward mishaps and to insure we got the moment captured on our video as well. All of our formal photos were posed beautifully and naturally, and she timed it all perfectly (which was great, because it was quite cold!) She’s also great with kids! Our flower girl and ring bearer had a great time doing photos. At both the ceremony and reception, Melissa didn’t miss a single moment yet remained respectful and discreet. Her experience and expertise is obvious! And the photos that we’ve seen so far have been absolutely gorgeous. Timeless and sophisticated while still capturing the joy from that day. And as a human being, we couldn’t have asked for a kinder soul to capture everything for us. Melissa’s warmth and care brought the whole experience to another level. My husband and I were blessed to have found Blooming Faith Photography!

Diana and Korey Photo and Film

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $6,498
  • Serves Paterson, NJ

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!).

One of the best decisions we made in our wedding planning process! Communication with Diana and Korey was smooth from the get go. Just take a look at their beautifully organized website and gallery and you'll understand what I mean! (It's also a great place to start looking for venue inspo!) Time tables with when and what things should happen are reviewed at a scheduled check in time. And the attention to detail they dedicate to your vision/pinterest board is a true sigh of relief for any bride in the wedding planning process! Josh and I are also certified introverts so it's hard for us to feel at ease in front of a camera. But each and every member of their team was so personable that it was easy for each smile and laugh to be genuine. Of course it also helped that Diana always had a pose idea ready to try! During our sweltering July wedding, despite 95 degree weather, Diana and her team sweated alongside us and continued to show enthusiasm for getting that next shot at that next backdrop to make sure every moment was captured. AND she had so many preview photos ready a mere TWO DAYS after the wedding. Herculean feat truly All our friends cannot stop complimenting the wedding album as they said Diana and Korey truly encapsulated our day and helped them relive it once more. I am so thankful that we have these memories memorialized through them and can't recommend this magical team enough!

I reside in Jersey City, New Jersey, serving New Jersey, New York, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, and beyond. I grew up surrounded by family photos. My parents had a professional photography business, Infinity Photography, back in the days of film. My friend asked me to do her senior portraits, so I started my photography business after my parent's business was closed for nearly 20 years. Fun fact, I chose "Grey" because I'm a nerd, and I love Jean Grey - she's my fave X-men. Also, my name is hard to spell, especially when you hear it. It's like "Leah" with a "Tuh."

Taliya gave us the absolute best wedding photography experience. She was extremely professional and quick to answer any questions at any point along the way. She made sure every detail was arranged before hand so there were 0 surprises along the way and day of. Not to mention that the photos turned out phenomenal. She was great at posing and framing to get the best shots and made sure that everything got pictured and captured from our special day. Would recommend 100%

  • Starts at $2,500

As a professional photographer for the past several years, I have worked with clients in New York, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Philadelphia, North New Jersey, and elsewhere. Despite the availability of smartphones and digital cameras, a professional photographer remains essential for capturing the emotion and true essence of an important event. I am ready to help you immortalize your wedding.

Choosing the right photographer for our destination wedding was a crucial decision, and we truly struck gold with Hector. From our first interaction, it was clear that we were in the hands of a professional who not only excels at his craft but genuinely cares about capturing the essence of his clients' most special moments. Hector made the whole process feel seamless, even from miles away. He was incredibly flexible and open to our ideas and visions, making sure that every detail was discussed and planned to perfection. His communication was exemplary throughout, providing us with the reassurance needed when planning such an important event from afar. Upon meeting him at our wedding location, his warm and personable approach immediately put us at ease. We hired him to a week long wedding at Punta Cana and he made everyday so special. Hector has the unique ability to blend into the background, capturing candid moments one might typically miss, yet also possesses the knack for organizing group shots effortlessly, making everyone feel comfortable and at ease. Our wedding Party and all our guest loved him and how he interacts with everyone just shows how he cares. His work ethic is something out of this world. Hector went above and beyond, from arriving at the venue early to scout the best photo spots, to his patience and creativity with every shot. The photos were stunning—a perfect blend of natural light, picturesque backgrounds, and authentic expressions. What truly set Hector apart was his ability to make us feel completely comfortable throughout our big day. His guidance on poses and scenes was invaluable, and his upbeat personality made us feel like we were just hanging out with a friend who happened to be an incredible photographer. When we received our wedding photos, we were absolutely blown away. Each image told a story, capturing the spirit and joy of our day. The colors, angles, and moments he chose to capture were nothing short of magical. It's clear that Hector doesn’t just take photos; he creates art and captures feelings. We couldn't be more grateful to have had Hector as part of our wedding journey. His professionalism, talent, and kind-hearted nature made our experience unforgettable. We highly recommend him to anyone looking to capture the essence of their special day in the most beautiful and heartfelt way possible. We are so grateful for the exceptional work he provided us. I promise you that you will be blown away. Look no further and hire Hector for your next event or wedding whether local or destination wedding you will truly love his work

I’m Lizzie, a wedding & engagement photographer in New York and New Jersey. For more than a decade, I’ve been capturing life's great moments. On wedding days, I am known for my happy and relaxed presence, making sure you’re on time and smiling throughout your whole day.

My husband and I hired Lizzie to do our engagement photos and bridal shower photos. She is really friendly, and her work comes out beautifully. I've recommended her to two other brides who also loved her work! When looking for a photographer, it was really important to me to find someone that would take timeless, natural looking photos that weren't cheesy and Lizzie delivered just that. For our engagement shoot, she thoroughly researched the location I chose (Central Park), recommending the best time for lighting and the best spots to take photos at. She delivered the photos quickly and even gave me a sneak peak the night of the shoot! For my bridal shower, she captured the most sentimental candids. The room was a little dark, but she has the right equipment with her to deliver amazing photos with perfect lighting. Aside from delivering a great final product, Lizzie is friendly and makes taking photos really comfortable. Her diligent research of the venue/location beforehand really made her work that much better. Her editing style is natural and timeless, and she was able to really capture how I was feeling at the moment.

Awarded Best of Zola
WHERE DO I EVEN START!? When I got engaged, I didn’t realize one of the hardest things about planning a wedding was going to be finding a wedding photographer. I loved so many photographers that I met with, but I didn’t connect with any of them the way I connected with Gabby. Her rich upbeat personality and knack for being so personable is amazing and very much radiates from her the moment I met her. That alone completely convinced me, but she knocks it out of the park with her perfect and thorough organization skills. Not a single detail was missed and she was so understanding of my anxiety the day of my wedding I don’t even know how she does it. She wasn’t just my photographer she was also my therapist, haha! If you’re looking for a photographer that can not only capture your wedding beautifully but also contribute so much happiness I can’t recommend booking Gabby enough. I’m so excited for whatever event me and my new hubby are going to have just so we can hang with her again!

Lee was probably the best hire for my wedding day, and he had some awesome competition! He was receptive to ideas and made all of the photos I wanted happen while also knowing what shots to get that we didn’t think of. I was also incredibly pleasantly surprised when he gave me well over the promised 20-30 sneak peeks way before the one week that was promised in his contract. There were so many amazing shots included in the sneak peeks, we can’t pick a favorite and cannot wait to see the rest!

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.

My favorite thing in life is sitting out by my fire-pit with a glass of Riesling and a s’more in hand with friends and family surrounding me. I'm completely obsessed with traveling, going on adventures, and elephants, and actually foster one named Kamok in Kenya! I feel extremely lucky to have found the love of my life, Scott, when we were studying abroad in Copenhagen, and we now spend our days dreaming up our next adventure! I've been obsessed with weddings and knew I wanted this to be my career after attending my first one when I was 14, and haven't looked back since. I can't wait to hear about your day!

Simply the best! From the beginning, Laura was very responsive and reached out to me immediately once I inquired. From our first Skype call, to her online billing system, everything about working with her was simple and professional. She is truly passionate about her work and knows these photos are meaningful and will be around forever. From our engagement shoot to our wedding day, Laura was continuously engaged with us throughout the process and put together our day of timeline. Days before the wedding, she made sure all our vendors and family members were on the same page with the timeline by sending them an email and her contact information. Truly a STRESSFREE process for a bride and groom knowing that you have Laura and a support team behind you. She’ll go the extra step for great pictures. We received so many compliments from our friends and family on how hard she worked and how friendly she was! I believe that photos are the biggest part of a wedding and an investment since they last forever. Every bride wants a beautiful sunny day for their wedding, even if it was extremely hot on my wedding day, I knew that Laura would be able to capture us in the best light. I could go on and on about how wonderful Laura is. I strongly recommend Laura Lee Photography and I look forward to continuing my relationship with her. Thank you for everything you did for us on our special day!!!

My name is Jovanny Hernandez and I am a Portrait and Wedding Photographer based in New Jersey. No matter the session, from Weddings to Portraits, my goal is to deliver service and excellence. The whole experience matters, from booking your first meeting to receiving your final images. I pride myself on delivering the experience my clients are looking to have. This involves communicating expectations, ideas, vision for the day and the overall experience.

Where to even begin… Jovanny captured our wedding exactly and as joyously as it occurred. He not only fully encapsulated our personalities through these pictures, but also captured the bliss we were radiating. Several wedding guests and family members came up to us to commend how well Jovanny communicated with everyone during the photos. He fit right in like another guest. We had a destination wedding during peak fall foliage in NH. Jovanny drove behind us up to the top of mountain we got married on surrounded by our friends and family. His organizational skills and creative thinking made group shots effortless and pain free - even with our 2 and 3 year old niece and nephew. Our family members praised his upbeat, outgoing attitude the entire time. He’s a true professional. Every day I find myself looking back through our easy to use gallery that he set up for our photos. We also used Jovanny for our engagement shoot. He’s one of the most down to earth people we’ve ever connected with. We recommend everyone reaches out to book with him before the rest of the world (and New Jersey) realizes what a hidden gem he is.
