About

I am a photo-documentary wedding photographer, specializing in capturing all the authentic and unscripted moments of your wedding day. With over 10 years of experience, I've proudly photographed hundreds (and hundreds) of weddings in NJ, NYC and destinations worldwide.

Though my photography work has been published in magazines, and I've garnered my fair share of awards over the years, my proudest achievement till this day was when my youngest son finally learned how to ride a two-wheeler. I mean, c'mon: that's pretty awesome, right?

Fun fact(s) about me: I've never met a bowl of beef noodle soup I didn't love, I make a mean Old Fashioned, and I have a profound weakness for furry little animals.

Fun fact(s) about my couples: They love outdoorsy adventures, dad jokes, and drinks with colorful umbrellas in them. But most importantly, they find comfort in knowing that they'll always have permission to laugh out loud, to be in the moment, and to be true to themselves. That's where the magic is, and that is where I'll be...hopefully as your photographer on your wedding day :).

The BEST photographer

Ben Lau was the best Wedding Photographer -- highly highly recommend! From our Engagement Shoot to our Wedding Photos, everything came out beautifully! From the classic Wedding shots, to fun shots (cropping our Cat in a few) to artsy shots we didn't know we wanted. He's a pleasure to work with, keeping us laughing and having fun and at ease the whole time. He and his team are so responsive too -- which helps tremendously in the chaos of Wedding planning! His day-of timeline also helped keep things moving and organized. Thank you Ben and team for capturing our Wedding!

Highly recommend Ben! Perfectly captured our day!

Cannot recommend Ben enough! We did our engagement pictures with Ben ahead of our wedding and they were 1000/10. He is a master at finding the perfect lighting and did the perfect mix of the more modern photos we love and the more traditional ones our parents/grandparents love. My husband and I are both terrible at posing but Ben kept us comfortable and laughing our entire wedding day and made our photos look so natural! He is hilarious and brought such positive energy the entire day - everyone in our bridal party couldn’t say enough wonderful things about Ben! Ben even gave us a few preview physical prints during our reception which was such a beautiful touch! The sneak peeks Ben provided shortly after our wedding are SO incredible. We can't wait to see the full set of photos as we know they will be top notch! Can’t recommend Ben enough!

Ben and Karis are amazing photographers, so much so that I consider their work among the best in the region. I've studied cinematography and photography heavily, and these two have a rare handle on the intricacies of light and color that I don't see very often. Then add that they are just ridiculously fun and easy to work with, and it's a no brainer. Hire them!
