    Heartfelt all the way!

    Hiring Heartfelt Studio was the best decision my husband and I made for our wedding on 9/14/23. Di was incredible to work with from the start. He was extremely communicative with me months leading up to the wedding which made me feel very secure. I’m a reality TV producer and wanted to do something that is a staple in my industry… a video confessional! Although it hasn’t been done before, to my knowledge, Di was able to execute it FLAWLESSLY. My guests are still talking about how much fun they had leaving us video messages. The other photographers and videographers on the team (Eduardo, Caroline, and Michael) deserve so much praise as well. Their professionalism and talent is unmatched. I have never felt more comfortable with a team of people coaching me through photos & videos (there’s a reason I work behind the camera and not in front of it)! Lol. They were extremely patient and kind when dealing with me, my husband, and our families. Although we haven’t received our complete photo or video packages just yet… we got to see a short version of our confessional video which was EPIC and some sneak peaks of the photos which are INCREDIBLE. It makes me very excited to see all the materials soon. Thank you, Heartfelt. You were a big part in making our night one to remember.

    Amazing team

    My husband and I recently got married and hired Heartfelt for photography & videography. BEST decision ever! They made us both feel so comfortable in front of the camera. We had a lot of kids in the bridal party and they were amazing with them. We haven't received our pictures yet but from seeing a few on their camera I am 100000% certain that they are going to be the most beautiful pictures! THANK YOU heartfelt!!

    incredible team and beautiful work!

    We're so glad we found & had the opportunity to work with the Heartfelt team for our wedding. In the months leading up to the day, the team was quick to answer any questions we had and made it a point to reach out at specific intervals to go over details of the day, schedule, and our vision for the wedding. We were so impressed by how professional, organized, and proactive they were -- those calls were some of the earliest we had with our vendors and gave us a better idea of what to expect day-of. At every step of the way, Heartfelt made us feel secure in our decision to choose them: they proved over & over again that they were a team we could trust.

    On the actual wedding day, Di & his team were so much fun to work with! We could easily see how passionate they were about their work, and we felt very lucky to be able to take part in that process: the entire time, they kept the energy up and suggested so many different & creative shots. Every interaction we had with them was so warm and enthusiastic, it made us feel more excited, more joyful -- and ultimately that made a difference to how we experienced the day.

    Of course, the work doesn't stop after the wedding! The sneak peek we received was perfect -- and I want to take a moment to emphasize what great cinematographers they are. We recognized it from their portfolio when we booked them, and now actually seeing their expertise applied to our own day is so meaningful. Their editing is always tailored to the specific vibe of the couple: the film felt so much like us. It was our most beautiful moments, tenderly placed alongside each other so that we could look back and see the incredible joy of that day in all its different shades.

    Thank you Heartfelt team for capturing our wedding! We're so grateful for all the care you take in crafting the story of our most special day.

    Amazing people and amazing work

    We loved working with Heartfelt! Di and his team are such a fun crew and they made us feel so calm and comfortable during our wedding day.

    Their professionalism, funny banter, creative ideas for shots, and overall friendliness made our wedding day such a great time.

    Di is really passionate about his work and during our planning meetings, he was so helpful in coming up with photo ideas, wedding day timeline, locations for first looks, and more. He’s also super easy to talk to so we felt very comfortable right off the bat.

    We got our wedding photos back and wow they seriously blew us away. Can’t wait to work with Di and his team again in the future!

    Great Experience

    Great experience!! 5 stars! When I first went photography shopping, I couldn’t help but notice the style and warmth to their pictures. When we booked we immediately noticed their customer service display the level of experience they have in the industry, I love to work with people who know what they are doing! Our engagement shoot was part of the package and it completely surpassed our expectations. We looked like we came straight out of a movie! But most importantly it displayed our personalities and LOVE. The day of our wedding day, they were prepared, on time, fully equipped and with great energy. Our session began at 6 am so this was a plus! Their sense of humor and ability to immediately come in and use their creativity with all the items i bought made sure I got my monies worth! Most importantly they knew how to engage and keep the bridal party focus on task and deliver, I noticed it takes a certain set of skills to do this. Our photographers delivered special shout out to Di and his partner who did amazing!!

    Wedding/engagement photographer

    Heartfelt was wonderful to work with. They helped my husband and I become more behind the camera, and our photos were beautiful. Di was kind, professional and a great person to work with. Caroline also was one of our photographers for the wedding. She was also wonderful to work with, and had a great energy! We are excited to see our photos when they are done!

    Highly Recommend Di & the Heartfelt Studio Team!

    Working with Di and the Heartfelt team has been a dream come true! We were referred to Di by friends who got married 8 years ago and have since referred him to a handful of their friends. Di is not just a photographer but an artist who loves his craft. Right after we got engaged, we reached out to Heartfelt for availability before we even secured our wedding date because we knew that we wanted to work with him. Di was so excited to work a wedding down the Jersey Shore as it was a new location for his creative eye to work its magic. We purposely didn’t want a photographer that was a preferred vendor of our venue because we didn’t want the run of the mill same photos everyone takes there. We first worked with Di during our engagement shoot in Hoboken. From the moment we met him, we loved his positive energy and excitement. We had a general idea of where we wanted to take pictures in Hoboken but Di really brought our vision to life with the additional images he captured along the way.

    Hands down, Di and his assistant, Jessie, were the reason we had an amazing wedding day. You spend the majority of your day with your photographer and their positive energy really kept us excited and energized throughout the whole day. Di even started singing “Baby Shark” when our nephew was crying and it automatically put a smile back on our nephew’s face! He’s such a people person and is beyond talented and creative, he’s a true master at what he does. The proof was in the pictures because we loved every single one he delivered. He also told us to expect our wedding pictures 8 weeks post wedding and we received them in less than 4 weeks. It was a no brainer for us to hire Di for our wedding but he really exceeded any expectations we had. I’ve now paid it forward and referred Di to a friend who hired him for her wedding next summer.

    Wedding Photos of our Dreams!

    We can’t express how wonderful our experience was with this company. From the engagement shoot to our wedding, Di always made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera and listened to us to help create the vision we wanted for our photographs. We absolutely love how our photos came out, and were so impressed with how quickly we received them after the wedding. Any couple that hires Heartfelt Studio for their wedding will not be disappointed!

    Heartfelt Studio is the way to go!

    Di and his team are amazing! Being a covid bride and having to postpone 3 times, Di was so accommodating through the whole process. My husband and I are not ones to like our picture (or video) being taken but they made us and the bridal party feel so comfortable and had so much fun in the process. We got our wedding photos back 5 DAYS after the wedding (yes, that's right - 5 DAYS!) and I loved each one more than the next! Beyond grateful for all the Heartfelt team has done to capture our special day, and I couldn't recommend them more highly!

    Amazing team and photos!

    We first chose to work with Heartfelt because of their style. They were so accommodating when scheduling our engagement session since we live in Texas and had to schedule so far in advance for us to travel. After the engagement session we definitely knew we made the right choice. Di and Eddie were awesome and made us feel so comfortable during the session. Our photos and engagement video were returned so quickly to us!
    Fast forward to our wedding day on 6/4/22- the whole team is so talented and creative, and we had such a good time working with them. So many laughs and again we felt so comfortable. I love how the heartfelt team vibes so well with each other! We received all our pictures in just over a week and we love them. Cannot wait to create the album and see our video footage

    The perfect team to capture your magical day

    Di and his team were fantastic. Di did a beautiful and creative engagement shoot in Central Park that really captured some of our favorite places and skylines in the city. Then he was with us for the day at the wedding with his coworker and created just as magical memories. The photos are so important at a wedding and they turned out stunning. Not only were the photos great, but the team is so friendly and kind that they truly make you feel at ease and beautiful in front of the camera. I am so happy to have chosen Heartfelt to capture our day. We couldn't have asked for anything more.

    Amazing Photographers

    We cannot say enough great things about Di & his team. When we watch them work at our sister's wedding, we knew we had to hire them for ours. Di & his team are insanely talented, paying attention to detail. We were blown away by the quality of the photos. We highly recommend hiring Heartfelt Studio for your wedding!

    Heartfelt is the only way to go!

    From the moment I contacted Di from Heartfelt in the depth of Covid he was so uplifting and helpful. We bought the full package with 2 photographers and 2 videographers for the entire day. Di gave us a complimentary engagement shoot and more importantly taught us how to pose and take great pictures. The day of the wedding all 5 of the crew were dressed in all black, very professional, and so easy to work with. If you are planning your wedding, book Heartfelt and stop worrying. Our pictures are amazing and the video is great, better than we could have imagined.

    Absolutely AMAZING!

    We chose to work with Heartfelt Studio for our engagement and wedding photos because we absolutely loved their style - honestly, this was one of the best decisions we made in the whole wedding process! We had to postpone our wedding due to COVID, and even with all the changes, they were very flexible and accommodating. On the day of the wedding, our photo and video team were both professional, on time, and most importantly so fun and friendly! They made it easy to feel comfortable during what can be a high stress moment, and they did whatever they could to get the best shots. We are so pleased with their work and would work again with them in a heartbeat! We could not recommend them more!

    Beautiful photos. FUN TEAM!

    Eddie, Di, and the team were such a pleasure to work with - they were such a fun group, we couldn't stop raving how enjoyable and stress free they made our day. They just made us laugh and so much more comfortable taking pictures than we ever thought we could be. The turnaround on our 1-min trailer was very quick and we haven't be able to stop watching it.

    Would highly highly highly recommend this team!

    Di and his team are so incredibly talented and truly make your vision come to life in their professional photos. Their natural, organic and in the moment shots speak a thousand words. I can’t begin to say how many compliments I’ve received on my wedding photos. They are not only a blast to be around, but they make the day a smooth and easy one. I highly recommend using them for not only your wedding, but any and all services that they offer! Go heartfelt!

    Best Photographer/Videographer Team Out There!

    Di and his entire team (Edison, Eddie, Darnell) were phenomenal. I can't thank them enough for everything they have done for me and my husband.
    We found Heartfelt Studio through my friend who also used them for her wedding. I found their work to be exceptional and truly special. My husband and I are so glad we went with them.
    We did our engagement shoot with Di and all of the photos turned out amazing. Di made it fun throughout the entire shoot and caught candid moments that were so good that we had to use them for our wedding day.
    We were lucky to get married on a rainy day and in the middle of a pandemic, but that didn't stop Heartfelt Studio from being there with us 100%. Di and Edison were with me and my bridesmaids while Eddie and Darnell were with my husband and the groomsman. My husband can be tough to crack a smile especially when he's so anxious, but Eddie and Darnell were able to loosen him up just fine. The team had beautiful umbrellas for us on our wedding day and were ready to take outdoor photos with us despite the rain. Honestly I think it turned out extra special with the rain in the background.
    Throughout the entire day, they were so pleasant to work with. Every member of the bridal party loved them because it felt like we were just a big group of friends hanging out together.
    I couldn't have asked for a better team to capture every moment of our special day. We just received a sneak peak video of our day it looks like it came straight out of the movies. The quality of their work is impeccable and their eye for beauty is extraordinary.
    I highly recommend them to anyone who needs photos and videos for any occasion. Daniel and I love you guys!!!

    The best team & amazing pictures!

    One of the best decisions we made during our wedding process was choosing Heartfelt Studio to capture our special day. We took our engagement pictures with Di and it was such a fun experience! Not only did his personality and humor make us feel comfortable but our pictures came out amazing! We had to postpone our wedding and Di was flexible and accommodating. Eddie, Angelo and the rest of the Heartfelt team were so awesome! They were fun, kept the day running smoothly and took such beautiful pictures! Not to mention they were so detailed that I knew they would capture every special moment. Our bridal party kept saying how great they were and how amazing our pictures came out. We would choose Heartfelt over & over again and continue to recommend them to our family and friends!

    Picture Perfect

    Even before I got engaged I knew I wanted to use Heartfelt Photography for my wedding! So, immediately after I said "yes" I was in contact with Di. He was extremely helpful and patient through the entire setting the date process. Since our schedules were so difficult Di worked with us through FaceTime until we were able to meet in person. We had the pleasure to work with him on our engagement shoot. He made us feel very comfortable, which resulted in amazing photos that really captured who we are as a couple! My husband was so impressed when he saw the photos, and it made us both really excited for our wedding pictures. Di, Tony, Rick, and Ray were amazing to work with the day of our wedding. They were extremely professional, and always very time conscious. They made sure to make us feel comfortable and at ease throughout the day (which happened to be one of the most humid days in July!). The sneak peek pictures that we received are better than what we could have ever dreamt of. We both have two very big Italian families and they handled them like a piece of cake! I feel so honored to have had Di and his team be a part of our day, capturing the moments we will cherish forever!

    Best. Team. Ever.

    This team is so amazingly talented and such a pleasure to work with. My husband and I got married at the Liberty House in Jersey City, NJ this past April -- we booked Heartfelt for both their photography and videography services. Our photos came out absolutely breathtaking, and the edited videos were so magical and perfectly curated -- these images and clips will allow us to relive the best day of our lives for many years to come. Not only is their work some of the best in the industry, but Di, Eddie, Edison and team are so much fun to be around; they made us and our bridal party so comfortable on the big day. We've already recommended them to several family members and friends who were equally as satisfied with Heartfelt. BOOK THEM!

    Amazing Wedding Experience!

    Heartfelt was amazing! Di is a fun person who really makes the photo-shoots natural and easy. We originally did our engagement photos with him in Brooklyn and the photos were everything we wanted. We got some fun shots by the Brooklyn Bridge and used those for our save the dates. For our wedding we took photos for 2 hours before our ceremony at the Bourne Mansion and the photos came out perfect. We got all the shots we wanted especially those with family and friends that we will forever cherish. We got some great shots of the beautiful scenery and in the venue. The photos look like they belong in a magazine! Its just Heartfelt’s style! A big thank you to Di, Eddie, and Dariana. They captured our dream wedding! We recommend them to friends all the time.

    Heartfelt for the win!!

    When my husband and I got engaged, we researched A TON of photographers and ultimately decided on Heartfelt as the photos we saw on Instagram looked so genuine and effortless, and definitely stood out from the rest. From the engagement shoot to the wedding, we found Di and his crew to be incredibly professional and super easy to work with. When we received our photos, they exceed our expectations. They looked so natural and beautiful and we received tons of compliments on them. It was so difficult to decide which ones we wanted in the album as we loved nearly all of them. We are so thankful we found Di and are so grateful that he was there to capture all the memories with family and friends on our big day. Book Heartfelt, you won't regret it!!

    Couldn't have asked for a better team to capture the best day of our lives! We have only seen the teaser video thus far, but it's crazy they have already sent us that as we had only been married 1 week, and are already so impressed and thankful they were there. The teaser has brought everyone to tears. For being 2 not very photogenic people they made us look like professionals! We cannot wait to see the rest!
