Best decision ever was choosing Grace to capture our special day!

Choosing Grace Brown Photography to capture our wedding day was one of the best decisions we ever made. Grace truly knows how to make everyone involved in your wedding day feel comfortable in front of the camera. I love her ability to capture the raw, candid emotion in such a classic but artistic way.
Grace provided us with a beautiful wedding gallery that truly transported us right back to our favorite day, we cannot wait to continue to look back on these photos forever. If you have the opportunity to work with Grace, do not hesitate! You won't regret it!

The best wedding decision we made

Where do I even start? Grace is quite simply the best of the best. Her talent speaks for itself but her kindness, patience, and friendship are truly the icing on the cake making this the best decision out of all of our wedding planning. As a somewhat OCD bride, the planning journey was still so stressful, chaotic, overwhelming but also joyful, fun, and exciting thanks to Grace!

Grace was a huge part of how we could enjoy our wedding day (because of her organization in capturing everything/everyone most efficiently and beautifully) in addition to her calming energy and support all of the days leading up to it. Starting over a year before our wedding, we received quick communication, prompt replies, and peace of mind as she made us feel so special and important to her personally.

We admire Grace's work and professionalism, and could not be more grateful that we stumbled upon her Instagram page way back at the beginning. We also admired the way she commanded a room, which was so important to us for maximum success with our big Italian families!

If we could shout it from the rooftops we could, we could not recommend her more and will continue to sing her praises to everyone we know. BOOK HER ASAP. You won't regret it and you'll have the most beautiful and timeless photos to look back on. We are already looking for an excuse to use Grace again, she's just the very best. Xoxo

Amazing Photographer!!

Grace is the best there is!! My husband and I loved her work so much we decided to book her before booking a venue!! After seeing her work we knew she was our only choice! Grace has become an amazing friend to us both and truly made our wedding such an incredible experience. Every guest at our wedding loved Grace! Our album has so many incredible photos we are in complete awe and unable to choose which photos to frame! Grace was so easy to work with and truly just wants to make sure your day is how you want it. She kept us laughing and made sure the photos truly showed our personalities and us at out best!! Grace is amazing and the only photographer we will ever use!!

The photographer of your dreams!

Where do I even begin? Grace as a person or Grace Brown Photography – because they are both impeccable and you would be lucky to have her as your photographer. I’ll start with the amazing photography part since that is what I am sure you want to know if you are looking through reviews. Grace’s specialty is capturing a moment through a lens and calling it photography. It is a still shot of a moment that embodies beautiful angles, raw emotions, and real moments. She is one of those photographers that gives you a pose or an idea and lets you run with it, which is why all her galleries are unique to each couple/family. It is because she lets her work be authentically you. Every smile, laugh, silly gesture, tearful emotion - Grace was right there, capturing it with the best angle and lighting. During a wedding day, moments go fast, and the excitement kicks you in over sensory drive. As I tried to soak in all the special moments during my wedding day, Grace was there making sure she captured them for me as my real-life photographic memory taking snap shots of the people we love, so we could cherish them for a lifetime. Grace also made albums for me, my parents, and in-laws. She took feedback extremely well and was very accommodating through the whole process to ensure we loved our album layouts.

Now the Grace Brown part – This to me is even more important than the photography and let me explain why. Grace is honest, fair, funny, generous, meticulous, calm, loving, and very talented. The first time I met Grace was the day of my wedding and she greeted me like I had known her for years. She came prepared with her photo list and knew every single one of my bridesmaids’ names and family members. Grace genuinely cared and you could tell through her actions. There was a moment in my day where I knew I won the lottery with Grace Brown. The party buses that were supposed to transport me, my parents and my 8 bridesmaids from Long Island to Jersey City were 2 hours late picking us up, which in return made me walk down the aisle an hour & 45 mins past my 4pm ceremony start time. When we realized how late we were going to be, I called Grace to give her a heads up. In an unruffled and relaxed voice, she goes “no problem” and started to develop plan B, because now instead of 2 hours between the ceremony and reception to shoot pictures, we only had 45 minutes! Grace immediately sprang into action. She was thinking fast, but present and joyful. The true art that day was watching her work and maintain happiness through pure chaos. Every time I needed reassurance that we had enough day light shots – she told me not to worry and improvised beautifully. Grace never acted annoyed or inconvenienced, she just calmly molded to the time she was given and still managed to deliver a stellar product/gallery. In addition, to accommodate the timeline delay, Grace stayed until the wedding was completely over, which was an extra 1.5 hours than she was scheduled. It was so sweet and just highlights that she is truly a good person that does right by her clients.

I could not have imagined anyone else to photograph my wedding. I hired her for the portfolio of beautiful pictures but will return because she has a heart of gold, and she is exactly who I want behind the camera to capture my future moments. Thank you thank you thank you Grace – I could never thank you enough for being my calming force, becoming a new friend and delivering my favorite keepsake.

The best decision ever!!!

It’s been one month since our wedding and my husband and I cannot stop raving about how choosing Grace as our photographer was THE best decision we made throughout the wedding process. To begin with the most obvious, Grace takes the most beautiful pictures! She makes you feel so comfortable and is able to capture your relationship so clearly. I love how much fun we are clearly having in each picture and cannot stop staring at each and every shot. Never did we expect to have trouble picking our favorites - what a great problem to have!

Grace also provides you with several different packages to choose from which is so great. What I loved about the package we chose is that it included coverage of our rehearsal dinner! By being at the rehearsal dinner Grace got to know the people most important to us. She makes such an effort to learn everyone’s name which is such a huge task but means so much (we had big bridal parties and have large families!). What was really impressive is that Grace and her second shooter got amazing shots of all the important and candid moments but they were so discreet! None of our pictures feel very posed or staged because we are genuinely having the best time. There are so many pictures of me bursting out laughing looking at the camera because I see Grace behind the lens and that made me so happy!

Now onto working with Grace on a personal level. She is so kind, funny, sweet and all the positive words you can think of. She exudes excitement for you that is so genuine. My husband and I joked after meeting her the first time that we want to be her best friend. That “joke” has continued and we really do plan on staying in each other’s lives. My bridal party and family cannot stop talking about how amazing she is - my sister in laws even created a “Fans of Grace Brown” chat with Grace immediately after the wedding so that they could schedule family pictures! I cannot recommend Grace enough for her amazing work, professionalism, and because you will be working with such a wonderful human being. Hire her!!!

AMAZING - you want her as your photographer!!

SIMPLY AMAZING.

Grace Brown! Where do I even begin…

Kind, Courteous, Thoughtful, Talented, Diligent, Special, Trustworthy… are only some of the words that come to mind to describe her. When James and I got engaged in 2019 I knew right away I wanted Grace Brown as my wedding photographer. BUT, I was hesitant because I have known Grace for several years and well you know what they say, sometimes it is not the best decision to work closely with friends or family. I wanted to support Grace in her art so we sealed the deal and she was able to photograph our engagement session and wedding day. I can tell you, this was by far the BEST decision I have ever made.

I have always known Grace for her caring soul and kind heart, but this truly becomes evident while watching her do what she loves. From the moment my now husband met Grace (at our engagement shoot), he too, was in awe of how awesome she is! She is calm and cool..and funny… and makes you feel comfortable while working her magic to capture incredible moments.

Fast forward to our wedding day, for the sake of everyone reading my review… and we have received nothing but compliments on our photographer. How she handled our getting ready photos, us ladies in the bridal suite, our entire bridal party, our parents and grandparents, and our guests. We knew Grace wouldn’t let us down, but having our bridal party and guests notice how fantastic she is was truly something else to witness. She gave us direction, our bridal party actually listened to her 😉, she worked her magic, and we finished photos in the time we planned for.

Our engagement and wedding photos are absolutely GORGEOUS. We were able to look at our photos on our honeymoon and the way she pieces them together like a story allowed us to relive our special day while we sipped on tropical drinks and celebrated our marriage. Grace captured Every. Single. Moment. of our day in the most discreet way. Her work is absolutely breathtaking, light, and airy. It was everything and more to have Grace as our photographer, and to have our wedding bring Grace and I back together is a blessing.

Grace, James and I cannot thank you enough for experiencing our journey with us. You are a breath of fresh air and you captured moments in such a beautiful way that we will relive for a lifetime. I hope anyone reading this review can feel our love and utmost appreciation for the work that you do. You are elegant. You’re work is elegant. You are simply amazing.

Grace is the best.

Grace is the BEST decision that we made for our wedding. We knew from the first time we met her that we would work well together. Grace shot our surprise proposal shoot, our engagement photos and our wedding and we plan on using Grace for all of our "big" events moving forward. Grace is professional, kind, funny and navigated tense family situations with ease. She knew everyone's names, was personable, while still professional and took the most beautiful photos. If you are in the NYC/NJ area and a questioning whether or not to book Grace, DO IT. You will not be disappointed.

Best in class/ perfection / whatever the word is above perfect

I really can’t begin to describe how amazing grace is. They say that people will forget what you say and do, but they will not forget how you make them feel. Grace makes the people that she works with feel unbelievably special from the moment she becomes your partner.
Our experience with her was nothing short of amazing. The entire day she was short of supportive and understanding. She captured photos that looked how my memories of the day feel and to me that is everything.
We got married outside in very bright light (seriously we were melting in the sun) and she found the places with the best lighting for the best photos. She is a gift to the photography business and a treasure that I recommend without any reservation.
Grace is worth every dollar without any hesitation. Hire her, you will not regret it.

Feel free to contact us for a recommendation.

You found your photographer - it’s Grace

I was lucky enough to have witnessed Grace capture my sisters wedding and from that moment forward I knew she would also be our photographer to capture our day.

Grace has the talent to capture your day so you will receive not 1-10 amazing pictures but 500-1000 AMAZING photos that allow you to relive your day ( which trust me you will once you view her storytelling with pictures of your day). She captured such romantic and dream photos that I was stalking on Instagram months before the wedding!

Grace is SO talented in navigating the chaos during the day and help direct you as a couple. There were moments I thought I would faint while taking pictures ( heat and lack of breakfast ) and Grace knew I needed a break or needed to breathe for a moment to take it all in or would help me correct my ( resting bitch face ) if I was overwhelmed haha !

You will barely notice Grace is even there , she is capturing everything from the little details to making sure we got our gorgeous shiba inu Kaya in our wedding photos ( yes, while smiling ) !

Look no further- Grace has it all , impeccable creative eye, attention to detail, extremely great value for the amount of pictures, professional , comforting and by the end of your experience Grace is less your photographer and more of a friend that takes the most amazing pics in the world !

You spend all of this money for a celebration of your love and it goes by so quickly - these pictures are everything and I will look back on them for the rest of our life ! Thank you Grace for really delivering and capturing what was the happiest day of my life

Highly Recommend!!

I cannot even describe how amazing Grace is. Grace took both our engagement photos and our wedding photos and we are amazed (given that we are both awkward subjects!).

Grace's talent and photos speak for themselves. She is absolutely amazing. But one thing I didn't realize when planning a wedding was just how critical a photographer is to your entire day. I knew having photos was important, but I did not realize Grace would literally make our day special. We had a rainy NYC wedding day and, without Grace, I would have been disappointed. But she took the rain and ran with it -- she kept everyone's spirits up, made sure we stayed on schedule, and got the most beautiful photos capturing our wonderful day. She made sure everyone was comfortable and really captured the best moments of our wedding on film. Looking through our photos is like reliving the day.

Grace really took the time to get to know us as a couple prior to our wedding as well. I have a VERY LARGE family and Grace knew everyone's names (including my 6 siblings and 5 nieces and nephews) before she even met them. It made for such a good environment and made taking photos so relaxing and fun. Grace does this for a living, but never for a second made us feel like our wedding was "just another job." Instead, our day was special and our small details mattered.

I also want to note how gracious Grace was with our postponed wedding (due to COVID). She was extremely responsive and gracious when postponing our date and we could not have asked for anything more.

We highly recommend Grace as a wedding photographer if you're looking for someone with talent, passion for their craft, and who is just all-around fun to be with. Thanks, Grace! We cannot wait to hire you for family photos in the future!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
