“We had such an amazing experience with Dean Michaels for our wedding photography! The whole staff was so friendly and helpful both pre and post wedding. We’re not picture people at all and our photographer, Laura, made us feel so comfortable and gave such great direction. She immediately picked up on our personalities and the vibe we were looking for in the photos and captured everything perfectly. She didn’t miss a moment. We absolutely love all the photos and they were delivered quickly and were so easy to access and browse. Thank you!! -Jeanette & Joe”

“We couldn't be happier with having Laura Briglia Photography as our wedding photographer. Every time we spoke with Laura, her communication was timely, informed, and always relevant to our needs. A phone call with her easily becomes something akin to speaking with an old friend. That's to say nothing about the quality of her work, which is simply exceptional - the photos she captured are elaborate and dramatic, exactly what we wanted. We havent stopped gawking over our set in the 6 months since and are so relieved to have these photos for the rest of our lives. Laura went above and beyond what we expected, delivering dozens of stunning preview images less than a day after our wedding and going to great lengths to capture unique and breathtaking shots. Laura also made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera, even though we're not used to being the center of attention. Her passion and effort are evident in every aspect of her work, and we feel so fortunate to have had her photograph our special day. The value Laura provides is unmatched, as she could easily charge more for the service she offers. We can't wait to have her capture more moments throughout our lives.”

I’m Madalina, a wedding photographer based in Miami and the Jersey Shore, but I’ll happily follow love wherever it takes me. I’ve always been drawn to the quiet, meaningful moments: the way your partner looks at you when you’re not looking, the hug from your mom that lasts a little longer, the feeling of joy that hangs in the air. My approach is calm, intentional, and heartfelt. I want your photos to feel like you: beautiful, honest, and full of soul.

“Working with Madalina Photographer was such a great choice for our engagement. She has this natural way of making you feel comfortable in front of the camera, which helped me relax and be myself throughout the shoot. Madalina captured some really lovely moments between my fiancé and me that we'll treasure forever. Her photos have this timeless, editorial quality that feels cool and unique- they don't look like every other engagement photo out there. From start to finish, she was friendly and professional, and it was clear how much she cared about getting the perfect shots for us. We couldn't be happier with how everything turned out and I highly highly recommend!”

Awarded Best of Zola
“We had such a great experience with Enchanted Celebrations for our wedding! From the beginning, Summer was wonderful to work with. She was very responsive, helpful, and always quick to answer our questions throughout the planning process. Our photographer, Ash, was amazing. He was extremely professional, attentive, and so easy to work with. You can really see how devoted and passionate he is about his work and how much he cares about getting the perfect shots. He had great ideas throughout the day and made us feel completely taken care of. Even some of our friends noticed how great he was and commented on it afterward. Our videographer, Randolph, was also amazing. His enthusiasm and positive energy made us feel so comfortable and confident in front of the camera. He was very attentive throughout the day, and we could tell he genuinely cared about capturing all the important moments. The only thing I would recommend to future couples is that if you choose a specific photographer from their portfolio, ask Enchanted Celebrations to confirm that person’s availability before making your payment. We selected a photographer when we booked about eight months before our wedding, but around two weeks after booking, we were told that photographer wasn’t available. Their contract does state that if your selected photographer isn’t available, they can assign another photographer from those available, but I would have appreciated having the availability confirmed before we booked and paid. That being said, we ended up being extremely happy with Ash and Randolph. They were both wonderful to work with and made us feel like we were in great hands on such an important day. We can’t wait to see everything they captured. Thank you to the entire Enchanted Celebrations team! Her are pictures taken from Ash the photographer for the engagement shoot !”

Hi! I’m Shauna — but you can call me Shay. I’m the photographer behind Milestone. What started as a side business in 2015 became my full-time dream in 2022, and I thank God daily that I get to serve amazing couples through my work. I met my husband at 15 and we’ve been together ever since, so love stories have always meant a lot to me. As a wife and mom of two adventurous boys, I know how meaningful life’s biggest milestones are. My goal is to give every couple a relaxed, fun experience and a gallery of memories you’ll treasure for a lifetime.

“I first saw Shay’s incredible work at my best friend’s wedding and knew I had to book her. After a really disappointing photo experience during my engagement, finding the right photographer was my biggest "pain point" and my top priority. I was so nervous, but Shay did SO good. From the moment she arrived, she was a genuine, supportive presence who made me feel effortlessly beautiful the whole day. She isn’t just talented behind the lens; she is incredibly sweet and kind, which made a world of difference for my confidence. Beyond the photos, she was a total pro to work with. She recommended several of my other vendors and collaborated seamlessly with everyone on our team. If I could hire her 100 times over, I would in a heartbeat. If you want a photographer who truly cares about how you feel as much as how you look, book Shay immediately!”

“When people say wedding photos are priceless, I didn’t really get it until now. These are beyond priceless, they are everything. There’s a shot of my dad hugging me so tight before walking me down the aisle, and I will never forget that moment because of them. The video is just as powerful, showing both the laughter and the tears. They didn’t miss a single thing, from the ceremony to the after-party dancing. Even little details like the cake cutting and my niece running around are captured beautifully. The editing is gorgeous but not overdone. They worked so quietly but somehow managed to be everywhere at once. It’s clear they really cared about giving us something special. I’ll always be grateful.”

He was responsive, kind, and respectful in all of our communications leading up to the big day. On the wedding day itself, Victor struck the perfect balance between guiding us to get great photos while also letting my husband and I enjoy our reception. His friendly demeanor put us at ease. The end results speak for themselves - Victor captured all of the special moments of our wedding beautifully with his high quality work. My husband and I felt relieved knowing we were in good hands with Victor.

My photographer and videographer was something I wanted to make sure I did a lot of research on, after reading some reviews I decided to go through with a consult and booked immediately after the phone call. Marcia was very thorough and I got assigned to Rachael due to her photography style and the fact she loves dogs (our dogs were in the wedding and this was something to mention to them as it was very important to me to make sure we had someone who knew how important it was). Rachael was so easy to work with and helped me so much throughout my planning. When I finally met her and the team (Karim and Aaron- sorry if I spell those names wrong), I knew we were in good hands. Rachael is a BOSS and made sure we stayed on track with everything I wanted throughout the day. Seriously- she was more attentive than my maître d' LOL. The second photographer and the videographer were so good to. They all made us feel so comfortable. Rachael was so patient with our dogs, got the best pictures of them. She captured the whole day just as it was, which is exactly what I wanted. Same with our video. I cannot say enough good things about these 3.

Neither of us are overly confident and Melissa was able break us out of our shell a bit and captured photos that felt like us. Melissa was very professional, kind, supportive, and her communication with both us and the venue was punctual and easy. She was our easiest vendor to work from our side and the venue! I highly recommend working with Melissa. We’d book her again in a second!”

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Manahawkin, NJ

I’m an artist, a husband, a brother, a dear friend, an inquirer of life and a creative soul. I was born and raised in central New Jersey (if such a thing exists) where I still reside. I have a deep appreciation for the nostalgic things in life. Things that have the ability to bring you back to a happy place in your lifetime. I suppose this is why I love what I do so much, why it is so fulfilling. I am creating those nostalgic things for everyone else.

“Tim was an excellent choice for our wedding photographer! From start to finish, he made the process easy. He was always there to discuss and was a great help in figuring out the timeline of our day. He made us feel at ease on the day itself, and captured some amazing shots in a more documentary style, which is what we were looking for. Jeff, the second photographer he brought, was also great and had a great personality. Definitely recommend!”
