    Memories to last a lifetime!

    I just need to brag a little about Ray Addas and his work! Not only was he super easy to work with, he sent me my photos so quickly! I am in awe with every single shot! My husband is not into taking pictures and even he was super impressed with our beautiful pictures. Ray's professionalism and amazing talent made it super easy to work with him. He understood everything I was looking for and takes the time to sit with you and help answer any questions even after the event. I am in love with all my pictures. Selecting photos for my album was not an easy task because they are all so amazing! I can't thank Ray enough for capturing such amazing shots and I can't recommend Ray enough to any future brides out there. You will not be sorry!

    Simply amazing (and COVID flexible!)

    Ray and Katie are truly amazing... My husband and I had them take both our engagement photos in 2019 and our wedding photos in August of 2020 in Vermont. To be honest, we loved all of our vendors but Ray and Katie really made such a positive and special impact on our wedding day. They are so easy to work with and they knew just how to help us organize our day to get the absolute most out of the time (it really does fly by!) They even worked in some time during wedding portraits for my husband and I to just relax and spend some time alone together before the ceremony and it was so incredibly special. It allowed us to really take in the moment and enjoy one another and all of our hard work. Oh.. I haven't even mentioned the photos yet! They are STUNNING! We love so much about their work from the posed portraits to the hilarious candids. They truly captured every essence of our day and it will forever mean the world to us. We would hire them again in a heartbeat. So basically, you should just hire them right now.

    Coronavirus 2019

    Ray & Katie and simply just great people and their photography is amazing. This has been an extremely stressful time for everyone- especially couples planning their big day. Unfortunately we had to cancel our wedding and Ray & Katie were completely understanding and generous during such a hectic time. I’m grateful we were able to do our engagement shoot with them and will treasure their photos for a long time. If you are looking for photography, look no further you are working with the best.

    Could Not Have Asked for Better!!

    Hands down one of the best and easiest decisions we made while planning our August 2020 wedding was choosing Ray and Katie (Ray Addas Photography) to photograph our special day. From the initial message sent to confirm their availability all the way through the follow-up with our final photos, they were professional, friendly, and always quick to respond. Not only did they assist in capturing every sweet and fun moment on our wedding day, but they also helped us with our save-the-date shoot as well as the rehearsal dinner. While we were dealt the unfortunate hand of planning and executing our wedding during COVID, this dynamic duo didn’t skip a beat and didn’t think twice about continuing to work with us, despite all of the unknown and changes we inevitably had to make. They were beyond supportive and we truly appreciated that. The level of comfort and creativity they provided during the actual shoot was incredible and we could not be happier with how AMAZING our photos turned out! We will be forever grateful to these two talented photographers (and friends) and would highly recommend their services for any and all photography needs! Love, Jen & Kris

    We love Ray and Katie!

    We cannot speak highly enough of Ray and Katie. They were the perfect photographer duo and made our big day feel so incredibly special.

    Not only did Ray and Katie come with tons of ideas of how to get the most beautiful shots around our venue, they were also amazing at capturing our candids during the ceremony and reception, especially on the dance floor! They have the most positive attitudes and were super funny and supportive all day long.

    We highly recommend them both for your big day!

    Best choice!

    Ray Addas and his wife Katie were easy to work with, helped us to relax, captured our special moments without being intrusive. They had great suggestions. Besides taking pictures, Katie helped the Groomsmen to fix their boutonnières :-)
    We were very happy with them, and highly recommend them!

    Thoughtful, Talented, and Fun

    We are so lucky to have found Ray and Katie to photograph our wedding. They were professional and organized leading up to the event, communicated well, and made sure they understood exactly what we wanted out of our wedding photos. At the event they were consistently on time, proactive, and communicative. They scoped out the venue ahead of time and planned beautiful shots. We received our finished photos promptly after our wedding and were 100% satisfied. I would unequivocally recommend them to anyone seeking high-quality, professional photography for a special event.

    Stop Your Search! You've Found Your Photographers!

    We couldn't be happier with Ray and Katie! The communication with them was always quick and professional, the price was far below others we had found, and they were so great to be around the day of the wedding. They made us feel comfortable through every step of the process, and the pictures are incredible! Seriously, these are your photographers, don't waste time looking for more options. Call them!

    Nothing short of AMAZING!

    I just recently worked with Ray and his wife for my engagement photos. My fiancé and I were amazed by their work! They captured everything we wanted and more! They were fun and super flexible to work with as well. I highly recommend them!!

    Beautifully Captured Our Special Day!

    We had such a great experience with Ray and Katie! From the start, Ray and Katie were awesome- very professional and friendly. The photos that they captured are incredible; they walked the premises of the our venue prior and had creative ideas which translated into awesome photos. We received our pictures after the wedding timely- we also felt that they were extremely responsive before, during, and after the wedding! Cannot thank both Ray and Katie enough for the exceptional job they did capturing our special day.

    Ray was great to work with! We shot our photos in various locations throughout Jersey City. Ray was able to let us know if a certain spot had bad lighting which would affect the quality of the photo. His versatility and willingness to work with our ideas made the photo shoot a smooth process. He enjoys capturing candid moments which shine through the photos. There was a very quick turnaround time to receive the photos and we were so pleased with the results! Will definitely book again!

    Maternity Session

    We just did our maternity shoot with Ray and his wife Kate. They understood how important and special this shoot was for us. They paid extra attentive detail and sought out only the best shots. They are a very motivated and supportive team. The pictures are amazing and beyond what we expected! We are truly blessed to have chosen them and will continue to do so in the future.

    Incredible and stunning work by Ray Addas photography

    Ray was absolutely incredible to work with as the photographer for my April 2019 wedding. From the first conversation, Ray was beyond warm, professional, and helpful during the consultation to explain his various services and packages. Ray wanting to meet my husband and I, prior to the wedding, to get to know us, and to discuss picture concepts helped so much to put us both at ease from our picture taking phobia. It felt like we were spending time with an old friend and right away we know we made the best decision to work with Ray. During the day of, Ray continued to be such a calming presence and always offered support in a number of capacities whenever he recognized it was needed. My husband and I can’t believe how quickly we received our pictures and they are just absolutely STUNNING!! We specifically wanted candid shots and we can’t get over the moments Ray captured and just how breathtaking our photos turned out! Ray is truly a tremendous professional and artist! Do not hesitate to work with him.

    The Only Sensible Choice in North NJ

    Ray & Katie were an amazing duo! Disheartened by the outrageous prices quoted by some other photographers in North NJ, I asked anyone I knew for advice and referrals. While I was willing to spend a bit on my big day, I was not prepared for the clinical nature and exorbitant prices quoted by most. It was a colleague of mine that introduced me to Ray & Katie. From start to finish, they exemplified professionalism and as it turned out were the ideal team for our wedding. They were an integral part of our event and made our day truly special. Everything was explained clearly and the photos that they took were simply remarkable. They were priced fairly, were very friendly, and truly fun to work with! It is evident through the quality of their work that photography for them isn't merely a hobby, but a passion. I highly recommend Ray & Katie for ANY event that you may have. I know that they will be my "go to" crew for ALL future events.

    Loved every second!

    We LOVED working with Ray and his wife Katie! My husband and I remarked several times to one another how fun it was to work with photographers who were so genuinely excited about the shots they were taking, it made us feel like we were the subjects of their art! Ray was so easy to work with, he answered all emails and questions quickly, had everything planed in advance of the wedding, was punctual and professional, and handled a group of LOTS of personalities in stride! We were so thrilled with our experience! Book him now, you wont regret it!

    Wonderful experience!

    Ray was very professional, friendly, & super easy to work with. We had a photoshoot with him recently and it was a very positive experience. He arrived super early to make sure he picked out the most scenic spots (it was in a state park) that would really provide us with the most beautiful pictures. While he was very prepared with many great ideas for poses & shots, he was also open to our input and very patient as we suggested some ideas of our own & asked to utilize a few props we brought along. We totally recommend him for your next event. You will not be disappointed!

    Above and Beyond!

    Ray is everything and more you could hope for in a photographer!! He is personable, friendly, professional, dedicated and simply an amazing photographer!!

    He cares so much about your experience and making sure you’re comfortable, which in turn translates into the most stunning and natural shots I could have ever imagined. My now-husband and I are both fairly awkward in front of the camera, but Ray was truly incredible at making us feel comfortable and also making sure we had a lot of fun!! It was not hard to feel relaxed and full of smiles when working with Ray!!

    We met with him several times and also exchanged emails to ensure the big day ran smoothly. He was more than accommodating and responsive and we cannot thank him enough for the amazing photos from our wedding on October 7th in Jersey City!! He captured moments that were real, genuine and full of life! He was there, but also completely invisible at the same time -- naturally flowing in and out of the day! I am absolutely in awe of him as a genuine person and so thankful to have had the opportunity to work with him on our special day!! We were beyond blown away by the stunning photos that we will absolutely cherish for the rest of our lives!!! You will have no regrets and the best time working with Ray and the Ray Addas Photography!!!

    Ray recently took photos for my family and I could not be more thrilled with how they came out! Photographing events that involve children can be challenging at times, but Ray and his wife Katie made my family feel so comfortable that nearly every photograph was picture perfect. Even with a rainy forecast, Ray was flexible and creative in coming up with alternate poses and was able to capture beautiful images of my family that I will treasure for a lifetime. They were so accommodating with the poses we wanted to use and spent the time to make sure each photo was perfect before moving on. They also took beautiful candid moments that were so unique and special to us. The care, time and expertise Ray uses in his craft is beyond compare and we could not be more grateful for the beautiful photos and memories he has provided for us!

    Ray Addas was my photographer for my wedding and I can honestly say I was blown away by his services. Before I even get into how amazing his photos and style are, I just want to say he was much more than a vendor throughout this whole process. He was an amazing help for a young couple preparing to be married and he was the most accommodating person for us that day. He did everything he could, from coming earlier and staying later, to driving people to destinations for photos. He gave us advice and really helped our wedding day be amazing on a personal level. Now as for his services, OH MY GOD. What a photographer. I have never seen such a beautiful portfolio. AND HE DOESN'T TRY AND CHARGE YOU THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS. He is an amazing individual who really CARES about his clients. You can't go wrong choosing him. CONTACT HIM. He can make ANYTHING work. (P.S. He's very military friendly.)

    My husband and I booked Ray for our wedding on July 2018. Ray was a pleasure to work with right from the beginning. We knew Ray would go out of his way to give us exactly what we wanted. He listened to all of our ideas and created pictures beyond our expectations. Ray was able to capture the most joyous moments at our wedding. I would highly recommend him and will be booking him again!

    Ray was absolutely amazing! My husband and I are so grateful to have had the opportunity to work with Ray. He was extremely professional, courteous, and provided stunning photos. He went above and beyond for us by coming earlier and staying later just to capture all the special moments. Through phone calls and a few emails he really got to know us and what we were looking for for our special day. We were pretty clueless as to what we wanted from our photographer but Ray stepped up and made everything feel so natural and easy. We’ve received wonderful feedback from our guests who absolutely love all the photos and it was so nice to relive the day through his work. He did an amazing job capturing those memorable candid moments and we are just thrilled with the outcome. We can’t recommend him enough!
