Testimonial
We loved our wedding at the Stone House in Warren NJ, captured by the wonderful artists of Emma Cleary Photo and Video from specifically Ryan, Anna, and videographer Asya. Our special day was captured forever by pure talent! We felt so comfortable with the artists, they asked all the right questions from start to finish on the day and did great at managing and capturing the shots. Most importantly, Emma (the owner) is incredible. I could not have planned and executed my wedding without her services and immediate attention to detail, the timeline, the photos needed, suggestions/discussions, edits, services, she was everything I didn’t know I needed!!! So grateful for Emma Cleary and her talented artists on the greatest day of our lives. I felt confident, at ease, and supported, especially as two brides we felt so loved and comfortable with all of the team. Would highly recommend trusting this business with your event/day. In a heart beat. Thank you!

The previews are absolutely beautiful and we are so excited to see the final gallery. Ryan and Taras were wonderful to work with. They were prompt and gave great directions when taking photos. They dealt with our large crazy families perfectly.
We would highly recommend the both of them and thought they worked well together. We appreciate all of your support during our wedding and can’t wait to see all of the beautiful pictures!

Wow! These images are breathtaking. Lina and Ryan were an absolute joy to work with. They were the perfect compliment to Vinny and my personality. Both gave great instructions and recommendations and made us very comfortable. I am thankful that you paired us with them.

Anna, Ryan, and Nino all did a wonderful job capturing our wedding reception and ceremony in September 2022. Anna shot my getting ready photos and made it very stress-free while Ryan shot my husband's. I think they all three worked well together as a team and would definitely recommend them (and working with Emma) to anyone in the NY area to capture your wedding day.
