Wedding Photography capturing the best of Ocean County

From the quiet charm of Bay Head’s beaches to the nostalgic boardwalk vibes of Point Pleasant, the energy of Seaside, the wild dunes of Island Beach State Park, the lighthouse views in Barnegat Light, and the laid-back coastal magic of Long Beach Island, Ocean County is full of gorgeous backdrops for tying the knot.

Our approach? Keep it fun, keep it real, and capture every laugh, tear, and in-between moment as it naturally unfolds. No stiff poses, no fake smiles—just genuine memories that feel like you, preserved in a way you’ll love forever!

“Even from the start Kamelia helped me with the timeline, photos, and keeping things moving! I have an easy going demeanor so it was great to have Kamelia keeping things to schedule. We got our sneak peaks the next day and our full gallery had so many great portraits, landscapes, close ups, and genuine candid moments from the day. Highly recommend to any brides looking for a photographer!”

Favorite Wedding Venues in Ocean County

We've had the honor of photographing love stories at venues across the county, including:

  • The Pavilion at the Sawmill (Seaside Park)
    Beachfront ceremonies, ocean breezes, and the sound of waves in the background. The Pavilion at the Sawmill is perfect for couples who want that laid-back coastal vibe without sacrificing an epic party. Located right on the boardwalk in Seaside Park, it combines casual fun with unforgettable views for a wedding that feels both relaxed and iconic.

  • Daymark (Barnegat Light)
    Bold, modern, and full of coastal energy, Daymark is a standout spot in Barnegat Light. With colorful interiors, amazing natural light, and a location just steps from the lighthouse and beach, it’s a favorite for couples looking for something a little different—stylish, fun, and full of character.

  • Hotel LBI (Ship Bottom)
    Chic, spacious, and just blocks from the beach, Hotel LBI offers a polished yet relaxed setting for your celebration. From its airy rooftop with bay views to its coastal-inspired ballroom, the entire space is built for hosting guests in comfort and style. It’s a perfect choice for couples wanting a full wedding weekend experience on Long Beach Island.

  • Mallard Island Yacht Club (Manahawkin/LBI area)
    If you’re dreaming of a wedding that feels like a fairytale on the water, Mallard Island Yacht Club has everything you could ask for. From the bridal suite that looks like it belongs in a movie to the waterfront ceremony space and elegant reception hall, every detail is romantic, luxurious, and designed for unforgettable moments (and seriously stunning photos).

  • The Mainland (Manahawkin)
    A little rustic, a little industrial, and completely fun, The Mainland is perfect for couples who want a fresh take on the Jersey Shore wedding. With both indoor and outdoor spaces, twinkle-lit patios, and even an arcade and adventure park for guests, it’s a laid-back venue that’s anything but ordinary. And it’s just minutes from LBI.
