When you hire Jamie you actually GET Jamie as your photographer on your wedding day! Why? 1. I LOVE photographing weddings! (I don’t want to send someone else to “do it for me” 🤪) 2. If you’re reading this, then you’re at the stage right now where you are researching individual photographers style, reading reviews showing their reputation, and scheduling a call to research their personality while sharing your vision. …. Now imaging doing all that work just for a “team member” or “an associate” photographer to show up on your wedding day? CRAZY RIGHT?! When you hire Jamie, your date is locked in FOR YOU, no unwanted surprises!

Awarded Best of Zola
Jamie was amazing! She brought so much enthusiasm to every part of the process from our engagement shoot to the big day. She helped us visualize the full timeline from start to finish, and her artistic eye and direction made us feel completely at ease in front of the camera. The photos are stunning—capturing every moment from getting ready to our bubble exit, and she stayed through the very end with no extra fees. Our album is gorgeous and such a special keepsake from the day. We can’t recommend Jamie enough!

Hello, We're Lisa & Pieter! We're a South Africa and New Jersey Wedding & Lifestyle Photographer Duo who love capturing all things love! We met working on cruise ships, traveled the world together, fell in love, and now are photographing beautiful love stories together!

Awarded Best of Zola
We are absolutely over the moon with our experience working with Lisa Blanche! From the very beginning, Lisa and her husband Pieter made us feel like more than just clients—they made us feel cared for, celebrated, and completely at ease. We are NOT naturals at posing for photos and were nervous going into this process, but they changed our whole POV and made it so fun for us. They’re so warm and fun to be around. They work with you and laugh with you. Their calm energy and kindness on our wedding day made such a difference, and they felt like part of the group with us. We’ve only received our preview photos so far, and they are stunning. Our friends and family can’t stop talking about them—every single shot feels like a piece of art! Lisa emphasizes they capture the moments, not just photos, and that could not be more true. The photos are so real and full of life and emotion—we already know the full album (which we’ll get in a few weeks!) is going to blow us away. Lisa and Pieter are total pros— organized, and skilled beyond words—but it’s their personalities and presence that make them truly unforgettable. We will actually miss them and hope to stay in touch! They even sent us the sweetest little care package when we first booked with them— just the best people ever. We didn’t book videography, but our in-laws did, and Justin (their amazing videographer) created a complimentary engagement video sample for us—and it was so beautiful. He was just as friendly and kind as the rest of the team, and we honestly wish we had added him to our wedding package too. She also brings her polaroid camera along and gets such fun candid photos. If you’re thinking about hiring a photographer for your wedding day — hire Lisa Blanche! You’ll get stunning photos, but more than that, you’ll get to work with some of the most lovely and thoughtful people out there. We’re endlessly grateful to them for capturing our favorite memories so beautifully. We are so happy- Thank you Lisa and Pieter 3

I am Paul, a husband, father, and photographer serving the east coast NY, NJ, tri-state area, and available for travel worldwide. I have a joy and enthusiasm for life, love, and marriage. I love creating beautiful photos and capturing moments and memories but more importantly I love to photograph weddings and engagements because I love marriage and the love it signifies.

Awarded Best of Zola
Paul was fantastic! He was the perfect photographer to have for our wedding, and we’d chose him again in a heartbeat. He was reliable, organized, professional, but most of all, he was very kind! We immediately felt comfortable working with him the moment we started planning together. Wedding day, he was almost also like our wedding coordinator, something we didn’t have. He helped keep us in time, know what the next thing was, and even stay present to each moment. His execution of photographing and the details he captured throughout the day, truly exceeded our expectations. The quality of the photos were stunning, and our family and friends still rave about not only them, but also him as a photographer, over a year later. The photos came out regal yet soft, and we loved how timeless they came out to be. We had him for the morning to take portraits of the bridesmaids then groomsmen, during and after the ceremony, couples portraits right after, and lastly the beginning parts of the reception, which included entrances, speeches, dancing, and the cake-cutting. I grew up with a photographer father, and a Filipino family that lives and breathes pictures, so I definitely had a taste. Paul was the perfect fit for us, and we definitely recommend you chose him for your next event!

His professionalism the day of really made an impression on my husband and I, along with our guests. I believe one of guests said "he is the real deal".

We absolutely loved having Shelby as our wedding photographer! She is super genuine and easy to be around, so even if you’re feeling camera shy she’ll find a way to get the shot. We were impressed with her directions too, especially in the big family photos, where she made sure everyone was looking at the camera and had their hands strategically placed. Also how did she remember everyone’s names? This girl is good!

  • Serves Avenel, NJ

I’m a drummer, a mother of two amazing kids, and a proud owner of an 80lb Samoyed. My passion for photography is deeply influenced by my family legacy—my grandmother was a dedicated full-time photographer who spent her life capturing and hand-coloring her own images. Growing up immersed in her art has profoundly shaped my own approach to photography. As a photographer, I'd love to capture the journey of two people in love, telling the genuine and touching story of their life together. I strive to create images that convey heartfelt narratives and reflect the true essence of your relationship and the moments you share.

Awarded Best of Zola
Finding Momo on social media was a total game-changer. I was instantly drawn to her documentary-style photography, which beautifully focuses on genuine moments and raw emotions. I wanted photos that would make our special day live on forever, and Momo delivered exactly that. From day one, working with her was incredibly easy—from the initial consultation to signing the contract and discussing our shot list. She quickly became the vendor I trusted the most, and that trust was not in vain; she was hands-down the best person we worked with for our entire wedding. On the wedding day, she actually arrived at our hotel before I did! Since we didn't have a wedding planner, I hadn't prepared perfectly for her, but Momo is a true professional. She made brilliant use of whatever was available, capturing stunning photos of us, our loved ones, and our accessories seamlessly. My husband and I are both quite shy and introverted, and the idea of being the center of attention in front of a camera felt incredibly daunting. But Momo has a magical way of easing all of that anxiety. Instead of forcing stiff, awkward poses, she gently guided us to just look at each other, breathe, and be present. She made us feel completely safe, relaxed, and happy. Because of her gentle approach, she captured our true selves rather than a performative version of us. The photos genuinely reflect exactly who we are and how our love feels. In fact, our friends keep telling us that every single photo looks like a gorgeous frame of a short film—there is so much cinematic storytelling and life in each shot. To top it all off, she was incredibly fast with delivering both the sneak peeks and the final online gallery, and was always responsive to our questions. Momo is generous, genuine, and truly invested in making your day as special as possible. We are deeply grateful for her and cannot recommend her enough!

I help couples stay present instead of performing. For 25 years, I've photographed weddings for people who care more about connection than perfection. Most photographers pose you. I build rapport first and guide gently, because people look their best being themselves. Before your wedding, we meet to discuss what matters. On the day, I protect your time so you focus on your people. I find the light, prompt gently, and capture what actually matters. You get both film and digital. The photos feel true to who you are and how your day felt.

Awarded Best of Zola
We could rave for days about our overall experience with Laura and the end product photographs and prints we received. Laura's experience and professionalism were demonstrated pre-wedding with effective communication and outlining of expectations. She provided excellent advice which ultimately made the day of go much smoother. At the wedding and reception, we were impressed by how unimposing Laura was while still being able to capture the moments most significant to us, as well as the ones we didn't even know would be the most important to us until we saw them. When the fire alarms went off unexpectedly, she took it in stride, creating the most of the moment by placing us near the fire trucks and capturing some of the best pictures of the night. We sincerely and strongly recommend Laura for wedding photography and continue to be so grateful!

When I was a little girl, my favorite part about making the trip to Argentina to visit my grandparents, was rummaging through their old boxes of prints on a rainy day and just imagining life through those photos. I think that's what started my passion for photography. Knowing that a photo can have such an impact on a child, someone who hasn't even met you yet, makes taking them all the more meaningful. I am passionate about making meaningful images for others because I know how important those photos will be in the future.

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Carolina for our wedding, and we couldn’t be happier with our decision! From the very beginning, she made us feel comfortable and at ease, which was such a relief for two people who aren’t always the most comfortable in front of the camera. Her pre-wedding connection shoot was a fantastic way for us to get to know her better and for her to understand our personalities and what we were looking for. It was a great way to break the ice and helped us feel much more relaxed on the big day. Throughout the entire process, Carolina was not only professional but also genuinely kind and attentive. She truly went above and beyond, even giving us a few sneak peek shots early, which was such a thoughtful touch and helped us relive some of the best moments right away. We couldn't have asked for a better photographer. She captured our day in such a beautiful, authentic way, and we are so grateful for all her hard work.

From the moment we first reached out to The Valentine Collective, their communication was consistently professional and welcoming. They helped us plan the perfect timeline for our wedding day and introduced us to other amazing vendors that made our day even more special. The quality of their work is truly breathtaking - their romantic, creative style captured all the love and joy of our celebration in the most beautiful way. We are overjoyed with the stunning photos that will allow us to relive our wedding day for years to come. We cannot recommend The Valentine Collective highly enough to any couple looking for an exceptional photography experience.
