Amazing Team, Beautiful Photos!!

Our wedding was in 2025, and we could have not been more pleased with how EVERYTHING involving photos worked out. Therese and her team were professional in every sense or the word. The maximized use of the venue (Bay Head, NJ), weather, and timing with absolutely stunning photos. Her team was so easy to work with, so upfront about everything (price, timeline details, what to expect leading up to and the day of). We felt so cared for the whole day and were blown away by our photos!!

Amazing experience amazing photographer

I worked with Therese Wagner for my wedding after seeing her amazing work at my sister's wedding, and she did not disappoint! Therese’s attention to detail and knack for capturing genuine moments is truly impressive. Each photo tells a beautiful story, and every photo was stunning. It took me hours to decide what photos to include in my album because every photo was better than the next. Therese and her team are not only talented but also easy to work with, making everyone feel at ease. I couldn’t be happier with our photos and highly recommend them to anyone in search of a photographer!

The best of the best!!

I wish I could do more than 5 stars for Therese. She is without a doubt the best of the best. She is so organized, creative and talented and professional. There are not enough words to describe how amazing each and every photograph came out. She captured all the emotions of happiness, love and tenderness at my daughter's wedding. Pure magic!! On top of her talent, Therese is a joy to work with.

Incredibly Talented Photographer!

Therese was the first vendor we booked for our wedding back in Jan 2019. As soon as we saw her portfolio I fell completely in love with her incredible style and talent. We felt so comfortable meeting with her and felt confident with her extensive experience she would do a terrific job capturing our wedding day, we knew we had to book her immediately! From the gorgeous photos she took for our engagement shoot to the amazing photos on our wedding day, I’m over the moon happy on how much we enjoyed working with Therese. My wedding day had a very tight timeline with two ceremonies, large families and add to that it was a VERY hot day. Therese had the most positive, uplifting attitude and smile from start to finish and helped calm any fears I had that we wouldn’t get to all the photos I wanted. She guided my husband and I throughout the day and we were able to feel relaxed and have fun through it all. I could not recommend Therese highly enough, she is a dream to work with, especially being flexible when we had to postpone our wedding twice due to covid, and it is very apparent she loves what she does which is reflected in her stunning photos

Therese was wonderful to work with, she and Julia were so pleasant and unobtrusive, they allowed us to really enjoy our day and captured all of the happy moments we shared. And the photos are SO amazingly gorgeous, we couldn't be happier.

I just received my sneak peek of photos from Therese, and they are stunning! We came in under budget for several facets of our wedding, but as soon as I saw Therese's work last year, I knew we had to have her photograph our day! She actually came in right at my budget, very much worth the incredible quality and artistry of her photos.
Therese's studio is in NJ, but she came to Manhattan three weeks before our wedding to scope out some sites. We spent a couple of hours looking at the hotel I'd booked (first look photos), City Hall Park, and our venue (Battery Gardens). The day of our wedding, Therese and Julia arrived on time, Julia went to my husband's hotel and Therese photographed my dress, shoes, invitations, etc while I finished getting ready. They set up various beautiful shots using some great lighting we had, and used the rooms and props on hand at the hotel (lobby furniture, stained glass) to really add some pop to the photos. At the reception, they took more "candid" photojournalistic shots, which is what we wanted in that setting.
I am SO so happy we chose Therese for our wedding, and cannot wait to see the rest of the photographs!!!

We decided early on in our wedding planning that having an excellent photographer was one of the most important things to us. As soon as we met Therese and saw her portfolio, we knew she was the one! Her creative eye, intimate and personal aesthetic and use of natural light were perfect for how we wanted to capture our day. Therese took the time to get to know us as a couple and asked detailed questions about the people and elements of our wedding day that we wanted to capture. Her second shooter, Amy, was also fantastic. Our guests continue to rave about how beautiful our photos are and many mentioned how unobtrusive Therese and Amy were during the wedding. We couldn't be more pleased and highly recommend Therese Marie Wagner Photography!
