WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY & VIDEOGRAPHY IN BERGEN COUNTY NJ

One Team. One Vision. Your Complete Wedding Story

Your wedding day deserves more than a photographer and videographer simply working side by side. With one experienced team team handling both your wedding photography and videography, every part of your day is thoughtfully coordinated to tell your story beautifully.

A More Relaxed Wedding Day

When your photography and videography team already knows how to work together, there are fewer distractions and less and less coordination for you to worry about. You can stay present, enjoy your celebration, and trust our team to capture moments as they naturally unfold.

More Moments. More Perspectives.

From the quiet emotion of getting ready, to the excitement of your reception, our coordinated team captures the details, expressions, and spontaneous moments that can easily be missed when working with separate companies.

Reliability and Preparedness

We have the skills and experience to handle all aspects of your photography and video, from mastering challenging lighting conditions (dim spaces to bright sunlight) to composing breathtaking shots and guiding you into flattering poses. We consistently produce a high volume of quality, edited images and video scenes that you will love. At Ambassador Video and Photography our professionals arrive with top-of-the-line gear, including backup cameras, lenses, and memory cards, to ensure no moment is lost due to technical failure. We operate with contracts and insurance, offering peace of mind and accountability that a friend or family member will not. 

Focus on the Experience

By hiring the NJ professional photographers and videographers at Ambassador Video and Photography, your friends and family can relax and enjoy the celebration as guests, free from the pressure of documenting the day. Our wedding photographers and videographers also help manage the timeline, coordinate with other vendors, and ensure the entire process runs smoothly and with less stress for you.

Artistic Vision and Post-Processing

Our work extends far beyond just clicking a button. At Ambassador Video and Photography we use advanced software and techniques during post-processing to edit exposure, correct colors, edit videos, and retouch images, transforming raw photographs and video footage into polished, print-worthy works of art that align with your desired style.

Lasting Memories

Ultimately, your photos and videos are the primary tangible keepsakes from your special event, meant to be cherished and shared with future generations. Our professionals ensure these memories are captured beautifully and preserved in high-quality formats like custom-designed albums and prints and HD video files, which become valuable family heirlooms. 

For couples searching for wedding photography in Bergen County, NJ, choosing one team means a more seamless experience and a beautifully connected visual story of your wedding day.

Packages range from coverage of just the ceremony only, to a few hours, to full-event coverage for the entire event. Depending on the package you choose, you’ll receive all of your color-corrected high resolution images, and a fully edited video. Albums and prints are always optional, and you can customize any package too! See our packages on the price dropdown menu.

Many couples reserve their wedding photography six months to a year in advance, particularly for popular wedding dates and seasons. Contact us as soon as you have your date and venue so we can check availability.

Absolutely! We give you an edited, polished product.

Our style combines candid, documentary, and modern fine-art wedding photography. We capture authentic moments while also creating timeless portraits and family photographs.

The number depends on the length and type of coverage. Full-day weddings typically produce approximately 800–1,100 edited photographs.

We know you’re very eager to see your images and video. For weddings, mitzvahs, and party social events, photos are delivered about 2-3 weeks after your event. For business and corporate it is the same. Depending on the retouching requirements and number of projects we’re working on, it may take a little longer. For video it’s about 6-8 weeks depending on the complexity of the editing, and our workload.

Yes, engagement shoots are included with full-day coverage, and can be added to any package, or booked separately.

No worries because we have what nobody else offers - a good weather guarantee! If the weather isn’t cooperating we can arrange an outdoor photo session at a later date after you return from your honeymoon. That way you can also have beautiful outdoor images in your wedding attire!  We can also adapt with creativity to make the most of any weather by taking images indoors. If it's a gentle rain on your wedding day, or if it’s lightly flurrying outside, we may be able to get some images of you under umbrellas.  Too cute!

Yes, we bring backup cameras, lenses, lighting, batteries and memory cards so we’re prepared for unexpected equipment problems.

Yes we travel anywhere for weddings, parties and special events. Travel fees and lodging may apply depending on the distance, method of travel (car or airline), tolls, lodging, etc.

Do yourself a huge favor and schedule more time than you think you need! We don’t want you to feel any stress on your wedding day, so let’s go at a relaxed pace for your pictures and get you get back and ready to party!

We recommend that you schedule:

1-1/2 hours for pre-ceremony pictures at your home or hotel.

1/2 hour for your receiving line, (greeting guests after the ceremony),

Travel time to the park or reception hall‍ ‍

1-1/2 hours for formal pictures of your wedding party, family, bride and groom portraits, etc.

(2 hours for formal pictures If you’re doing a first look) because your ceremony and reception are all at the same place. There is no time after the ceremony for park pictures because your cocktail hour starts immediately after the ceremony ends.

It may sound like a lot of time for taking wedding pictures however your photo session should proceed at a stress free, relaxed pace. If you do not plan time prior to the ceremony for pictures, we strongly recommend blocking out some time after it. Understandably you’ll want to attend your cocktail hour, so be sure to plan ahead and make some time for your once-in-a-lifetime pictures. Some couples extend the cocktail hour by a ½ hour, while others delay the start of the cocktail hour. Both options make more time for your formal pictures so you don’t miss too much of the cocktail hour hanging with friends, family and guests. That way you can have your cake and eat it too!

PLAN FOR MORE TIME THAN YOU THINK YOU NEED!

The last thing you want is stress on your wedding day, so plan for more time than you think you need. The timing and scheduling of events throughout your wedding day do not always go exactly as planned.  After all it's an exciting, busy time, with so much to do! So it’s best to plan for any unforeseen circumstances like traffic, dress issues, hair and makeup running late, etc., and build in that extra time just in case.  

BUILD IN EXTRA TIME FOR HAIR AND MAKEUP!

They help you look your best - but often times hair and makeup run behind schedule ( sometimes way behind!)  Make sure you work out the details regarding the time that’s necessary for this important part of your day.  We suggest having the hair and makeup people scheduled to be done with their work a minimum of a half hour or 45 minutes BEFORE you’d really like them to be finished.  That way you can look picture perfect with time to spare!  In other words tell your hair and makeup people that you must be ready a half hour or 45 minutes BEFORE you really need to be ready.  Just a note - glitter type makeup and glasses may cause reflections.

BUILD IN EXTRA TIME FOR GETTING DRESSED!

It's your wedding day so you don't want to feel rushed.  Sometimes the wedding party and parents slowly get dressed thinking they have plenty of time before the ceremony begins. With so much preparation, the time goes by very quickly.  So make sure everyone is dressed and ready at least 1-1/2 hours before your ceremony begins.If you’re doing a first look, we suggest being dressed and ready at least 2-1/2 hours before your ceremony so you have plenty of time for all of the formal pictures. That way you can take your photos at your home or hotel at a leisurely pace and have some extra time to collect yourselves before going to your ceremony. 

CONTACT RELATIVES ONE WEEK BEFORE YOUR EVENT!

Sometimes friends and relatives are running late for their formal photographs. Contacting them one week before your event to remind them when they should arrive can minimize this problem (especially for notorious stragglers lol!). Perhaps your sibling or close friend can help you tackle this one. Emails are a great way to communicate because you can quickly send them to multiple relatives at the same time.

We get it - you want to get to the cocktail hour. This is probably one of the most important things you can do to make your wedding pictures go faster, and as smoothly as possible.  

Have Your Best Man, Maid of Honor, sibling, or close friend ready to help gather your family, wedding party, and relatives for your wedding pictures.

We highly recommend having one or two people (someone other than the bride and groom) to help in the process of gathering relatives and friends for wedding pictures. Your Best Man, Maid of Honor, sibling, or close friend can help by letting everyone know it’s time for their formal wedding photographs. The bride and groom should not have to chase down missing relatives or friends.  So put someone up to the task - they will surely be happy to help out. After all we want you to start partying!

Of course! Everyone wants to show their love with some taking cell phone or even tablet pictures during your wedding day.

Sometimes folks lean way into the aisle just as the bride is walking down the aisle. Although they have good intentions, they sometimes partially or fully block the view of the bride. That makes it near impossible for the professional photographer to get a good shot. Occasionally a family member may have photography suggestions that will lead to a less than ideal outcome. Finally some folks want to take the same pictures right after the photographer snaps their own. This delays the entire flow and really slows things down especially when the photographer needs to take dozens more pictures.

We urge you to let us provide our professional services while you relax and enjoy your day. We will do our utmost to quickly get the quality images you desire, minimizing your time away from family and friends. We suggested telling your family and guests to put the phones and tablets down and instead, be in the moment!
