New Jersey wedding photography
Photos that make you feel seen & celebrated
You’re creating one of those days that’ll live on long after the (gorgeous!) outfits are packed away. Where the energy is infectious and the details mean something. Where you’re surrounded by your very favorite people and sharing your commitment in a way that matters to you.
All that means it’s going to be one hell of a celebration. You deserve photos that capture it all — the energy and the details, the people and the meaning.
Years from now, these photos will be a way to relive it all.
Working with Adena of Studio A Images was an absolute joy. We felt safe in her hands from the moment we had our first virtual meeting and her photojournalistic style was exactly what we loved.

Less about chasing trends
more about preserving
real memories
That’s how I approach your photos
Because let’s be honest, when you’re preoccupied with how everyone else is doing it, you sort of lose sight of the important stuff. (That’d be you two, getting married and having a hell of a good time with your people.)
My sole focus is on telling the story of your day, not whatever’s trending on social media. And if you’re like me, you know that’s a good thing.
For our more traditional staged and group photos before the wedding, we had 14 members of our bridal party, both sets of parents, additional siblings, 8 nieces and nephews under the age of 12, and our dog…it was not a small task to wrangle this crew and get all of the pictures — they were so efficient that we finished with extra time to spare to relax before the ceremony!

The Story of the Day
No two couples are the same, so why would anyone expect weddings to follow a script? Take a look at how some recent couples celebrated, then let’s talk about your own wedding ideas.

From the first planning conversation to our engagement shoot to our wedding itself, Adena worked to make sure that we were comfortable, at ease, and confident. She captured the authenticity of our day and our love and presented it fantastically. Now that we have our album, we cannot stop looking at it.

The process
reach out
Fill out my simple Inquiry Form and I’ll respond within 48 hours to share more details and set up a time to chat. If we mesh, a signed contract and 50% retainer fee saves your date on my calendar. If you’re doing an engagement session, we’ll get that scheduled too!
tailored planning
Chances are, you’ve not planned New York or New Jersey wedding photography before. Don’t worry: I’ve got you. I’ll share an in-depth questionnaire that gets you thinking about the photo details and helps me understand your priorities. I’m always an email or text message away for any questions you have.
Photography Timeline
Based off your questionnaire, we’ll work together to build a comprehensive photo timeline so you don’t have to stress at all come wedding day. I carefully consider your timeline to include portraits that take into account family dynamics and important groupings.
Wedding Day
Your only job today is to be fully present (and, you know, get married). I’ll handle all the rest. I come prepped for anything, so if things go sideways — and on wedding days, something usually does — you can count on me to pivot smoothly and keep going with a smile.
Photo Delivery
Expect sneak peeks to show up in your inbox just 24 hours after your wedding. Your fully edited image gallery will be delivered (complete with download options) six weeks after your wedding. Are these photos going to become your phone lock screen? Most definitely.
Your Investment
Your photography is one of the biggest investments of your wedding, but it’s also an investment that lasts — these photos preserve memory and emotion long after the day is done. My wedding collections are customized to your needs, so reach out to schedule a time to chat.
→ Elopements and intimate weddings start at $1,150

Adena is the real deal! She is an absolute dream to work with and a true talent — do yourself a favor and hire her for your wedding!
