When you’re looking for a wedding photographer, it can start to feel like you’ve only got two options: an artist with a strong point of view who will tell your wedding story as they see it. Or a documentarian, who will tell your wedding story as it happened. But what if you could have both? Someone with an artistic eye, but who wants your wedding images to reflect your wedding honestly, as it happened? Well, that’s exactly what New Jersey based Studio A Images does.
Studo A’s founder, Adena, has both a degree and a lifelong background in photojournalism, so every single one of her photos is technically perfect (I’m talking from bright ceremony to dark reception). But her images aren’t robotic. Instead, they look like this:
Adena says:
Years in photojournalism honed my attention to the moments that tell a compelling story—your unique love story—with presence, honesty, and intimacy. Whether my couples create a wedding of quiet elegance, or whimsical moxie, or radiant splendor, they look through their wedding photos afterward and say, “Yes, that’s me. That was my day.”
Studio A’s prices for New York City–area weddings begin at $3800 for 8 hours of coverage, with elopement and tiny wedding coverage starting at just $800. Adena’s also happy to work out a custom package if your wedding falls outside of the standard 8-hour weekend affair. And if you book before July 31st, Studio A is offering $350 off all wedding packages. Here’s what’s included:
- 8 hours of coverage with Adena as your primary photographer
- Complimentary engagement session
- USB of your high-res images
Adena only books a limited number of weddings a year (twenty to twenty-five). That way she can really get to know you and dig deeply into the heart of what makes your story yours to tell:
I like to get to know you first so that I’m not just some random vendor that walks up to you on a very important day of your life. I approach your wedding day with enthusiasm documenting as it naturally unfolds and in a way that captures you effortlessly. I have a background in photojournalism, and I use that to capture honest and intimate moments between people while remaining unobtrusive. It is extremely important to me that the photographs I create at a wedding are both unique and artistic, and when seen collectively, tell the entire story of your day.
And when Adena says Studio A Images is committed to its clients, she means it. (Which explains why she has a 4.9 out of 5 star rating from dozens upon dozens of happy clients.) As one recently recounted:
I’m so glad we contracted Studio A Images for our wedding. Adena was an amazing addition to our wedding day and the photos she provided us are priceless! From the moment Adena arrived to our venue that morning she was professional and extremely helpful to me and my wedding party. She knew exactly what time I needed to start getting into my dress (who knew the corset would take that long), she knew exactly how to wrangle the groomsmen and politely tell the best man to get lost right before our first look photos. It was just a complete pleasure to have at our special day. One moment that stands out the most is once it came to the time during our reception that her job was done she checked in with us to make sure she took any final shots we wanted. A few moments after we said our goodbyes to her, a song came on that was from my husband’s culture and EVERYONE got on the dance floor to dance to it. Adena came running back to get photos of it! I was soooo happy she heard it and knew that it would be a special moment to capture on film. I cannot recommend Adena enough for your wedding; call her today!
Studio A Images is available for weddings all over New Jersey and New York, and Adena even still has some 2016 dates open. So go get to know her, check out her work, and then get busy with the booking.
Book your wedding with STUDIO A IMAGES by July 31, 2016, and receive $350 off your wedding package if you mention this post!
