Awarded Best of Zola
We had such an easy time working with Enchanted Celebrations staff that I would jump at choosing them again! Blair and Summer were professional, thorough, empathetic and communicated very clearly all the different features of the videography plans so that we felt like we chose the right plan for our wedding day. As time came closer, Summer was diligent at working with us on the details for the day-of, and then a few days before the wedding we confirmed everything with Edwin, our assigned videographer. Edwin’s style was spot-on with what we imagined and the videos came out beautiful and so much quicker than we expected them. We’re delighted with our experience!

John Barone Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (41 reviews)
Philadelphia, PA
  • Editorial style

I began my photo career in the commercial world. I photographed for many ad agencies, fashion clients and magazines. When I segued into the wedding world, I brought that style of fashion photography and lighting with me.

Awarded Best of Zola
I was hesitant to book anyone for our wedding photography at first — it wasn’t personal, I just felt unsure and overwhelmed by the whole process. But John Barone completely changed that. He followed up thoughtfully over email and offered to set up a call. From the moment we started talking, I felt like I was catching up with an old friend. He was clearly the most capable person I had spoken to, and by the end of the call, I was completely sold on him and his team. I had my heart set on a documentary-style photographer, and I was especially drawn to Stuart’s work. I followed his portfolio online and was continually impressed with every post. Leading up to the wedding, John was more of a help than he probably realizes. He took the reins on scheduling the entire day — something that should’ve been in my wheelhouse (I’m a planner and a project manager by day), but somehow felt incredibly daunting. John made it easy and even encouraged me to book extra time with our venue. Thank god he did. Every bit of advice he gave was spot on, from how much time we needed for getting ready, to first look, to portraits. The guy knows what he’s doing — he’s a true professional and I only wish I listened to him sooner. On the day of, Stuart and Denida were top tier. They arrived right on time, were exceptionally kind, and made both me and my husband feel completely comfortable. They worked seamlessly and quietly, doing things behind the scenes that I didn’t even notice in the moment — because they never wanted me to stress. My family and friends were absolutely obsessed with both of them. They were not only professional, but also hilarious and engaging — somehow making noises I didn’t even know were humanly possible to get the attention of my 10-month-old twin nephews! I would book this team again in a heartbeat and will recommend them to everyone I know. There was truly nothing more they could have done to make our day more perfect — because they already did it all. When I received our photos from John, everything was communicated clearly and on time. I never once had to worry, and the results? Absolutely exceeded every expectation. The photos are spectacular, beautifully edited, and exactly what I had dreamed of. If you’re on the fence — this is your sign. Book John and his team. You won’t regret it.

Awarded Best of Zola
Dani and I have known each other for 15 years, which is wild within itself. I’ve watched her photography journey for a long long time. Which is why the second we got engaged I KNEW we would hire her. We had an engagement shoot, as well as an “our day” vow shoot. Let me tell you, my husband and I are very much “guide us and we’ll follow” people. We’re indecisive, we’re go with the flow people, and that’s not always easy to work with. Dani from day one has guided us and taken care of EVERYTHING. From giving us options/ideas and brainstorming, to nailing the plans in place once we decided what we wanted to do. We had our vow day shoot in the Dolomites in Italy. Sebastian and I have never traveled like that together and Dani literally planned everything including what hike we were taking and timelined everything out. Which is exactly what we explained we needed and were looking for when working with her. She took everything we wanted and what we explained we wanted each experience to be like, and she nailed it. Nailed the photos. Nailed the locations. Nailed being an all around fantastic and easy person to work with. She also stayed in contact with us throughout the entire 2 years we have been planning together. She was our cheerleader, our planner, our listening ear, without a doubt I would recommend her to everyone and anyone. Not to mention these photos are to die for, and everyone is obsessed!

With a candid, editorial, and true-to-life photography style, we focus on the moments that matter. Your wedding deserves to be remembered in the most romantic and genuine way, and we’re here to preserve those memories forever.

So ElegantLe Photography was absolutely the best investment for our wedding and would highly recommend them for your photography needs. Thu was amazing with her attention to detail and comfortability directing us, especially for two awkward-in-photos people like myself and my husband. She was great with answering all our questions and truly helping us establish what it was we wanted in pictures for our day. On the day of our wedding, she (along with Matthew) managed everything perfectly considering the photos we wanted and the condensed time frame we had to get everything done. She kept us to our timeline and was organized with making sure we got all the shots that we discussed and then some. We also got our photos back within the estimated time frame that was provided (along with previews shortly after the wedding itself). Along with all that, there were other small details that just made our experience feel personal and special with So ElegantLe Photography.

McShea Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,500

My love of photography started when I realized the happiness photographs can bring to other people, even strangers. To have the ability to capture a moment and the opportunity to catch emotions all with a single click is empowering. Whether its an intimate moment at a wedding, a subtle reaction of a newborn, or just taking life's details and turning them into art, all facets of photography appeal to me.

Awarded Best of Zola
Before our wedding, I asked my brother-in-law and sister what they thought we should splurge on. Without hesitation, they both said: photography. They had made the mistake of not prioritizing their photographer—of not finding someone they truly trusted—and they regretted it. When you’re spending so much on a wedding, a good photographer essentially protects your investment. So we made it our mission to find someone we felt confident in—someone fairly priced, artistic, and capable of capturing both candid moments and beautifully composed shots. David is all of that and more. We were getting married out of state and couldn’t even meet him in person beforehand. We had to trust him based solely on a Zoom call—and from that first conversation, we just knew he was the guy. He exudes passion, authenticity, calm, and professionalism. My wife was anxious on our wedding day, and David became a source of comfort, reassurance, and steadiness. He’s everything you want in a photographer. What’s brilliant about David’s work is that every shot feels distinct. He has an incredible eye for composition, capturing surreal, artistic moments with real depth and warmth. His photos allow us to relive the day—especially the moments we didn’t get to fully experience in the chaos. It’s honestly hard to believe how consistent he is. With most professional photographers, you sift through a huge album to find your favorites. With David, every photo is captivating. I also have to mention his patience—especially when we spontaneously asked him to do an offsite photoshoot the night of the wedding… on the beach… in the rain. He didn’t hesitate. That shoot ended up being one of our absolute favorite memories. Not only did we get magazine-worthy photos, but David’s presence helped us come down from the buzz of the day. We laughed, had fun, and genuinely enjoyed the moment—and it shows in the pictures. David’s passion is contagious. He genuinely cares about his art and about giving his clients the best experience possible. Weddings can become routine for vendors, but David made us feel like our day mattered to him too. We truly plan to keep in touch—for anniversaries, milestones, and beyond.

I'm a documentarian and a storyteller at heart. I capture the most real and authentic moments I can, big or small, loud or quiet. I especially love catching moments that the couple might never get to witness except in their wedding photos. I'm based in Philly, but I'm always up for an adventure, especially one that takes me away from home.

Tracie is always my first choice for a photography colleague. She's magical--she knows where she needs to be, what to pay attention to, how I like to tell a story, and how to be an all around amazing, caring, personable human being. Her extensive background in news photojournalism gives her the ability to blend in with any crowd and has honed her visual storytelling skills. Above all, she is ethical and compassionate when approaching her subjects, and understands how to make anyone feel comfortable and cared for. Her images are always of the highest quality as well as artistic, and I know she will be able to roll with the punches with things go haywire--as they often do with live events. I would hire her in a heartbeat, and have relied on her for local and travel weddings for over a decade.

My wife and I had the pleasure of working with Tara Beth for our wedding in December 2022. We started following her instagram years prior and fell in love with how she captured every moment, from the guests to the couple. Not only were her photos amazing, but being a part of the LGBTQ community can feel daunting at times when reaching out to vendors, specifically for same-sex weddings. We had a few tough experiences with other vendors in regards to being a same-sex couple, but Tara Beth, as she is a part of the community, made it easy to feel comfortable and accepting. We contacted her and were met with a quick response. From the start, we knew she was the one. Her vibe and passion for love sold us! My wife and I were very nervous to take photos, but Tara Beth reassured us that she would walk us through everything - and she did just that. She talked us through our first look and it was an amazing experience. She also guided our party and family photos, which was super helpful as we were able to get our photos done ahead of schedule! We appreciate everything Tara Beth did for our special day and would recommend her 100 times over!

Cheryl listened to us carefully and executed that desire perfectly. I also sent her a Pinterest board of photography styles I loved and she brought that inspiration to life! Most importantly- Cheryl made sure we felt comfortable in front of the camera and offered tons of guidance on the day of.

He was so easy to work with, very professional, and even helped me stay calm when things weren't going as planned. Carlton arrived on time and ready to create magic, and that's exactly what he did. We are in love with our photos and will cherish them for years to come. A big thank you again to CMJ Photography for all they did to make our day so special.

How special is it to capture these moments of my family with Dackel, who I now consider family! That’s what made my wedding day even more special, having photographers you are familiar with and comfortable to be around. They are so easy to work with and they tend to your every need. It honestly was like having more bridesmaids!! The pictures turned out amazing and I couldn’t be more grateful. This day couldn’t have happened without them! 3

My photo style is very documentary-oriented, highlighting those genuine, candid moments as they unfold, uninterrupted. I approach the day by aiming to capture not just how a moment looked, but really the way that it felt. I want you to look at your wedding photos and be able to remember the conversation with your sister that made you laugh that hard, and the look in your mom's eye that made you tear up as she zips your wedding dress. Those moments are my bread and butter. While I'm more than happy to offer some prompts and posing tips during couples portraits, I'm honestly most interested in what your day would look like if I weren’t there.

Awarded Best of Zola
We had a few recommendations for photographers, but when we came across Emily’s work on Zola and Instagram, we were instantly captivated. Her portfolio showcased not only her incredible talent but also her genuine passion for photography. From the start, Emily’s professionalism shone through. We’re a couple that doesn’t take photos very often, but she made us feel completely comfortable, and her natural ability to capture candid moments is unmatched. Emily has an exceptional eye for getting a variety of poses and using the scenery to create stunning images, and her artistic vision truly brought our engagement and wedding photos to life. Our wedding party was fairly large, but Emily handled it with so much patience, calling out names and groupings effortlessly to get every arrangement we had requested. Her second shooter, Wilson, was also a fantastic addition, honestly being a life saver for helping the groomsmen with their boutonnieres and capturing some key moments throughout the day. On our wedding day, Emily was the only vendor with us from start to finish, and she was a joy to work with. She collaborated seamlessly with our videographer, made sure we got in a few breathtaking sunset photos, and captured every detail of our wedding in a beautiful visual story. It truly feels like we’re reliving the day every time we look at her photos. From our initial call to the delivery of sneak peeks just a couple of days after the wedding, Emily was on top of everything. Her communication, even in the months leading up to the wedding via email, was excellent. Her photography packages had transparent pricing and clear deliverables, and she communicated everything with perfect clarity. I would 100000% recommend her to anyone. My husband even mentioned he hopes we have another reason to hire her in the future. Emily is a true professional with impeccable creativity and skill, and we can’t wait to see what she does next.
