The photos are absolutely immaculate and far exceeded our expectations! From the very beginning, everything was perfectly organized, which made us feel both comfortable and confident. The photographer drove over two hours to our location and arrived right on time, setting a professional tone for the day.

His creativity and attention to detail truly brought our vision to life. I was genuinely amazed by how he captured each moment with such skill, resulting in stunning images that we will cherish forever.

The photographer’s professionalism and passion for his craft shone through every shot. He made the entire session enjoyable, making it feel more like a fun outing than a typical photo shoot in public. I highly recommend JC for anyone looki

Yaneke & Oranie

Proposed to my gf of ten years and I needed a photographer I could count on. Having worked with many photographers in the past, JC was the first photographer that came to mind to get this memory captured. His quality photography and editing skills should give anyone relief he’s got your back. Also it’s a plus he’s the friendliest guy you’ll meet!

Jessica & Luis

It cannot be overstated how much we love our wedding photos by JC! We were worried that the venues would present too many lighting and space challenges to produce worthy images. However, JC is a true wizard, and each photo of our wedding gallery is more exquisite than the last. His composition and lighting skills are exceptional! Most importantly, he made us feel comfortable from our very first conversation by keeping things flexible but organized. Neither of us has much, if any, experience in front of a camera, but JC knew exactly how to coach and direct us to get shots that were natural and full of life. We feel that our wedding gallery captures the pure joy of the day, and we can't stop looking through it! Truly recommend JC as a standou

Chleo & Kenneth

We booked JC to capture our proposal and to do an engagement shoot. JC was so easy to work with, professional, friendly, and had great ideas for our shoot. 

The pictures are so amazing that we used them for our Christmas cards this year!

Grismaldi & Jason

I was so nervous for my engagement photoshoot and didn’t know how I would pose or if my smile would come out awkward. But JC knew just what to say and do to get the most candid smile out of me. I fell in love with our pictures! We looked like we came straight out of a Fall fashion magazine. 😍

P.S if you don’t know what to wear he can give you an idea! His wife Evelyn is great with that and she does make up too!

So I know wedding wire is for weddings, but def book him for your engagement shoot too!

Joselyn & Dylan

Calling JC the best photographer would be selling him short. From our engagement photos to the day of the wedding and everything in between, he encapsulated what the perfect photographer should be. He has a certain style, but he will always do what you prefer him to do. The quality of his shots and the angles he chooses will leave you breathless; as it left us! The day of our wedding, our separate videographer was 3 hours late, so JC worked even harder to make up for that and it’s safe to say, he did not miss a beat at all. If you want quality and perfection, look no further.

I had the absolute pleasure of capturing Gabrielle and Jeffrey's stunning wedding at The Maritime Parc in Jersey City NJ and let me tell you, it was breathtaking. Now, I've had the privilege of photographing a fair share of weddings in my time, but this one was particularly memorable. From the venue to the couple themselves, everything was just perfect.Let's start with The Maritime Parc, the chosen venue. If you're not familiar with it, allow me to paint a picture for you. Nestled in the heart of Jersey City NJ, the Maritime Parc offers a stunning view of the Manhattan skyline and the Hudson River. It's a venue that perfectly combines modern elegance with a touch of rustic charm, providing a perfect backdrop for any wedding. But, of course, the venue is just the beginning. The stars of the day were undoubtedly Gabrielle and Jeffrey. Their love story is one of those that you would read about in a romance novel. The kind that makes you believe in love at first sight. Their chemistry was palpable, almost tangible, and I was there to capture it all.As a photographer, there's nothing more satisfying than capturing those raw moments of emotion. The kind of moments that make you feel like you're part of the story. And let me tell you, Gabrielle and Jeffrey's wedding was full of such moments.But if I had to pick the best part of the day, it would undoubtedly be the ceremony. The anticipation in Jeffrey's eyes as he waited for Gabrielle to walk down the aisle, the tears of joy in Gabrielle's eyes as she said 'I do', the cheering of the crowd as they kissed - these are moments that will stay with me for a long time. Weddings are more than just a celebration of love. They are a testament to the power of connection, of unity, of hope. And being able to capture these moments, to immortalize them through my lens, is something I am truly grateful for. Gabrielle and Jeffrey, thank you for allowing me to be a part of your special day. It was truly a day to remember.

A Magical Wedding Day at The Maritime Parc, Jersey City NJ

There are stories that make you smile, stories that warm your heart, and then there are stories that do both while making you realize the boundless power of human connection. This is one such story. It began when a certain Jonathan, all the way from Malaysia, reached out to me. A 12-hour time difference lay between us, but that was hardly a hurdle.Jonathan was planning to propose to his girlfriend, and he wanted me to capture the moment. There’s always something so incredibly special about being entrusted with the responsibility of documenting such an intimate moment. It's like being handed a fragile piece of someone’s heart and being told, 'Here, help me make this last forever.' The time difference between Malaysia and NYC could have been a problem, but Jonathan and I were both determined. We exchanged countless emails, worked around the time difference, and had numerous late-night and early-morning calls. We planned meticulously, down to every last detail. The fact that we were physically thousands of miles apart didn't matter. When the day finally arrived, I felt like I had been a part of their journey, even though I was meeting them for the first time. The proposal was gorgeous, just as we had planned. When she said yes, it wasn't just them celebrating their love, but also a testament to the fact that when people come together, magic happens. I share this story not just as a chronicle of one of my experiences as a photographer, but also as a testament to the lengths people will go to make their loved ones feel special. This story is a reminder of how love transcends boundaries and time zones. It is a reminder that in the world of heartbeats and pixels, no distance is too great if you have the will to bridge it.In this profession, I've learned that every picture has a backstory, every smile has a journey, and every click of the camera is a moment someone wants to hold onto. And this story, like every other, will always hold a special place in my heart. So here’s to love, to proposals, to beautifully captured moments, and to the heartwarming story of J and C, who reminded me that even a 12-hour time difference is but a minor detail when it comes to planning the perfect proposal.

Bridging Time Zones: Crafting the Perfect Proposal Across Continents

Hello there! I'm your local photographer and today, I wanted to chat about something close to my heart. You know, every so often, a photograph just hits differently. Have you ever experienced that? Well, if you're curious about what that means, then this is the blog post for you. You see, as the only photographer on my team, I've had the chance to observe the myriad of emotions that a single photo can evoke. Sometimes, a photo isn't just a photo. It's a time machine, transporting you back to the very second that the shutter clicked. It's a vessel for a feeling that, perhaps, you can't quite put into words. It's a mirror, reflecting not just your image, but your essence. In my line of work, I've noticed a few common factors that make certain photos hit differently. The first is the atmosphere. As a New Jersey and New York City wedding photographer, I've worked in a variety of locations, each with its unique ambiance. Whether it's a sun-drenched beach or a rustic barn, the setting of a photo can significantly influence the mood. The next is the subjects themselves. Their personalities, their relationships, their stories - these are all integral to the final picture. When the subjects are lost in the moment, oblivious to the camera, that's when the magic truly happens. Their emotions - joy, love, anticipation - shine through, adding depth and dimension to the image. Lastly, it's the details. The way the light catches on the bride's veil, the groom's nervous smile, the excited chatter in the background. These seemingly insignificant details can breathe life into a photo, making it more than just a two-dimensional representation. So, the next time you see a photo that hits differently, take a moment to appreciate the magic behind it. The atmosphere, the people, the details - they all come together to create an image that speaks volumes. And remember, it's not about the camera or the gear, but the person behind the lens. Because at the end of the day, photography is all about capturing the fleeting moments and turning them into lasting memories. Just me, my passion, and my camera. That's all it takes to turn a simple photo into something more. Here's to the photos that hit differently and the stories they tell. Until next time, keep creating, keep exploring, and keep letting those moments hit you differently!

As I sit here, 13 days away from the big day, I can't help but feel a wave of emotions. It's not just the anticipation of the wedding, but the journey this soon-to-be-married couple has taken to get here. It's a journey filled with love, laughter, and a bond that only grows stronger with each passing day.
&nbsp;
From the moment I met them, I could see the spark. The way they looked at each other, the way they held hands, the way they laughed together &ndash; it was clear this was a love story in the making. I've been privileged to capture their moments together, from their engagement to their pre-wedding shoots. And now, I look forward to capturing their wedding.
&nbsp;
Being a wedding photographer, I've seen countless love stories unfold. But every couple is unique, and this one is no exception. They've got their quirks, their inside jokes, their shared dreams, and their own way of loving each other. Through my lens, I've seen their love grow and evolve, and it's been nothing short of magical.
&nbsp;
Every wedding is a celebration, not just of love but of two lives coming together. And as the days tick by, the excitement builds. The wedding dress is chosen, the venue is set, the guest list is finalized, and all the little details that make a wedding special are falling into place.
&nbsp;
But beyond the preparations, beyond the hustle and bustle, there's a quiet, intimate moment shared between two people. A moment of realization that in 13 days, they'll be starting a new chapter in their lives together. And as their photographer, I get to share in this moment. I get to capture it through my lens, and preserve it for them to look back on for years to come.
&nbsp;
So, here's to the countdown. To the 13 days left until this lovely couple ties the knot. And to all the moments, big and small, that I get to capture along the way. Because every moment matters.
&nbsp;
13 days and counting.
