I cannot even put it to words how amazing it is working with Terrie! She has photographed my elopement, wedding reception, and newborn family photos and each shoot is better than the last. Terrie has a knack for making you feel comfortable and ensuring the shoots are laid back and fun, while still capturing the perfect moments. My husband and I are so awkward when having our photo taken but you would never know it based on the photos that Terrie captures of us. She is a down to earth, easy to work with person and I will be looking for excuses to use her in the future. You will not be disappointed if you book Terrie for any of your photo needs!

Janelle Brooke Photography Inc 

5.0

St. James, NY
  • Photographer
  • Fine art style

The JBP Team is group of talented artists that all share in the same creative vision of wedding photography led by Janelle Brooke and Terrie Alfieri. Our goal is to provide unparalleled artistic imagery, personalized attention and overall, an exceptional experience to every couple we work with.

Throughout the last year and a half, Janelle has become not just our wedding photographer but a trusted confidant for all things wedding, a shoulder to lean on and a forever friend. That goes for Amy, too. No question has ever been too silly, no idea out of place. From the moment we met Janelle, she just made us feel SO comfortable (and surprisingly, posing for wedding photos with your soon to be spouse is not always the most natural thing). She has an eye for the beauty in simple moments but also knows how to to capture the dreamiest scenes. already knew that Janelle would have our backs, but especially on our wedding day, Janelle was the most calm and centered presence for me and was able to read my mind with just a look at her about what worked and what wasn’t working. But that is what you can expect from working with someone like Janelle- she understands you and makes dreams, truly come true. Because seeing even just our highlight photos this weekend was an experience I will never forget. They were beyond my wildest dreams and I will truly treasure them forever. What I will treasure more, though, is the memories we have of working with Janelle and her team, including Mary, our second shooter of the day, who was able to wrangle all of the groomsmen together and keep them excited and organized, and who also was capturing each and every single detail so beautifully; and Kevin, who was a very much welcome third-shooter who was our personal hype man throughout the entire day, as he was genuinely excited to be with us and was truly up for anything. Literally, the entire team went along with my crazy plea to go outside despite the fact that it was pouring the entire day, but there was a 10 minute block of sun that we chased and thank goodness we did. They also agreed to photograph us in the rain at the end of the night and those pictures, too, are just magical. This review could truly go on forever about how much we love Janelle and her team. If you are lucky enough to be able to book Janelle for your wedding day (or any life event), I promise that it will be the best decision you will make throughout your event planning. Full Stop. Thank you, Janelle, for everything!

Self-proclaimed plant nerds, we are two kick a** horticulturists who met in the public garden world and have carved a place for ourselves in the floral biz. Weddings are our jam.

When working on wedding planning, we knew right away that we wanted to use nectar& bloom for our florals. We wanted something fun, unique, and just not what you always see at most weddings in our area. Lisa and Ann Marie were amazing in their communication and breakdowns of what could work with our budget and venue space, and were very adaptable and helpful as changes came along the way! We had high expectations coming into our wedding day, but they were absolutely blown out of the park once we saw everything come to life! From my bridal bouquet to the AMAZING floral arch and centerpieces, we were absolutely thrilled with how bright, colorful, fun, and unique our florals were. Our guests are still raving about the flowers that we had, and I even sent out our flowers to be preserved so that I have this amazing piece of our day treasured forever. I would highly recommend using the n&b team for your wedding day; whether you are looking for something more traditional or going for something more unique and personalized, you are in great hands with Lisa and Ann Marie designing your dream day!!

Words cannot adequately describe how amazing, flawless, and special our experience was. From day one, Stephanie's professionalism, eye for detail, true love for photography, and desire to capture the essence of our love story was very clear. Although we are a bit further from Stephanie (eastern MA residents), she committed to coming to southern CT to meet us for our engagement shoot and then to central MA for our wedding. When we were surprised by a pop up thunderstorm right before our ceremony on the big day, Stephanie acted not just as our photographer but as a friend and helped us navigate the nerves and emotions of the change from outdoor to indoor ceremony. Her photos are exactly what we were looking for. When we view them, we are transported right back to that day, and every emotion, every hug, every sentimental moment is there for us to cherish. We HIGHLY recommend Stephanie and her beautiful photography and plan to work with her for many more years to come.

They truly embraced the day and put all their energy into knowing inside and out our timeline, every detail, our vendors and our bridal party. I (the bride) was able to go about my entire day without having to worry about a single thing because they were taking the lead and handling it all. With a big bridal party and family, they ensured our most important people were where they needed to be and that we got all the photo shots that I had specified on my extensive list. All my expectations for the day that I had talked with them the months prior to our wedding were met and exceeded. There were only a few small bumps to the day and they immediately diffused the situation and quickly resolved it, all while being so kind and professional. These two allowed me to be completely present on my day and blocked out all the noise for me and I can't thank them enough for that. I will forever be grateful for Jess and Jackie and I highly recommend you book them ASAP!!!

Our DJ/BAND HYBRIDs are carefully crafted to your needs giving you limitless musical possibilities!

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring AMP was the all time BEST decision we could have made for our wedding! We had immediate comfort and trust in them from the first time we spoke, and the show they put on for our day was better than we ever could have imagined. They were incredibly responsive and helpful throughout the whole process of planning and had no problem with even the most far-fetched ideas (including my wife surprising me by getting up and playing the drums with the band). If we asked each and every person what their favorite part of our wedding was, hands down it was the music. Ana, Jimmy, and the rest of the band had everyone dancing the entire night without question. It was hit after hit after hit with the whole crowd! So many people rushed to us to ask how we got so lucky finding them. Ana and Jimmy truly respected and acknowledged everyone’s pronouns and made everyone in our family and party seen and comfortable through the entire process. AMP put their entire heart and soul into every performance. Their passion is so evident with each song they play, and their energy is just contagious. You cannot help but smile and dance throughout their whole set. And the TALENT! The talent is through the roof! All of our guests were completely shocked at the level of professionalism and talent AMP brought to our event. I cannot stress enough how utterly amazing AMP is. Do yourself a huge favor and book them, you will not regret it for a second.

My love of art and nature have led me to where i am today. I thrive when I can create and to be able to make a work of art with flowers, truly brings me a great joy. I want to bring your visions to reality through flowers on your special day or exciting events. Over my years of training in both traditional art and floral design I have developed my own personal style that is anything but traditional, but more so unique- just like all of us. Perla, which is French for pearl, was my Grandmothers name, is my middle name, and the name I give to my passion I hope to share with you.

Perla Fleur was an exceptional florist for our wedding. From the moment we first met with Rebecca and her team, we knew we were in good hands. They were incredibly kind, receptive to all of our ideas, and went above and beyond to bring our vision to life. The floral arrangements they created were truly breathtaking - we received endless compliments from our wedding guests on the ethereal and elegant look they achieved. Rebecca and her staff were also there for us all day, even moving our ceremony arch to our reception dance floor so we could enjoy it all night long. Perla Fleur provided exceptional value and we couldn't be happier with the results. We highly recommend them to any couple planning their wedding!

Genie artistry was absolutely incredible for my wedding. We were a big group, 12 for makeup and 10 for hair. They finished us early, had time for touch ups and nothing about it felt rushed. The morning moved seamlessly and smoothly. Jeanine and her team are one of the best. I also had an extremely diverse bridal party and they were able to accommodate that and work on everyone. They truly highlighted everyone’s best features and each girl came out stunning. With 3 make up artists and 2 hair stylists you may worry about consistency but each member of the team is so talented, you cannot even tell who did which girl. We started at about 9am and by 6pm for the ceremony everyone’s hair and makeup was perfectly in tact. This is a rare team who can deliver excellence on 12 different girls in a 5 hour period. I would seriously consider them for your wedding/bridal shower or event.

In 2018, she established Planned by Cristina Capone, a luxury wedding & event design company. We value comfort. Our tone is always polite, helpful, and kind.

We've said it a hundred times- we could not have planned such an amazing wedding without Cristina. She is incredibly organized and kept us on track throughout the planning process. She came prepared with tools, lists, guidance, and a listening ear from the very first meeting. Cristina took a lot of work off our plate by coordinating directly with vendors and removing the noise. Because of her wealth of experience, we trusted her with advice and recommendations on everything from big decisions to small details. Cristina had also worked with several of our vendors previously, so that made meetings and communications with them so seamless! We had so little stress on our wedding day thanks in big part to Cristina team's day-of coordination and timeline. We got so many compliments on the flow of our wedding, and brides are still asking me to send them my timeline because it worked so well. Cristina worked with us, our vendors, and even our parents throughout the wedding prep so that we truly all felt like one team. Thank you for everything, Cristina!!

The first time I picked up a video camera I was 10 years old making home movies in my basement with friends. Today, I enjoy capturing everything from weddings to overseas adventures while still having that excitement of storytelling I had when I was a kid. I create timeless wedding videos by capturing the experience of marriage in an authentic way. My videos are inspired by real moments, emotions and people.

Like many 2020 brides, my husband and I postponed our large wedding reception until next year and held a small ceremony and dinner on our original date. Craig was recommended by our photographer for our original date and we also knew we wanted to have him for our small ceremony. Craig is the nicest guy and literally always had a smile on his face. (And I could tell even with a mask on the whole time! He smiles with his eyes!). Not only did the day move flawlessly, Craig sent us our ceremony and first look footage within 1 week of our wedding. He also edited and sent us our highlight video in less than 2 weeks! He did an incredible job and we are so happy we had him there to capture our amazing day. I have watched the highlight video so many times and it will be treasured forever. We can’t wait to have him there for our larger reception next year.
