Armen Elliott Photography - Lehigh Valley, NJ, NYC

exactly! She has worlds of experience and popped in to help us with every single part of our wedding, including last minute alterations and scheduling debacles! Armen was a peaceful, focused force leading up to and throughout our wedding, and we could not be happier with the beautiful memories she helped us record!

, and on our wedding day she captured every single beautiful moment and detail! I look at the photos and am seeing things I did not even see on my wedding day! She was great with leading us on how to pose and where to go. I sit and cry looking at the photos because of all the beauty and emotion portrayed in the candid shots! Armen, thank you so much for being so amazing before, on and after our big day. You are so talented and the photos are so wonderful! Thanks to you, we can keep reliving our wedding day whenever we want!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

with her to the day of the wedding. From our first meeting with her I knew she was the only one who would suffice to capture our wedding day. Not only is her talent second to none, she is an amazing person just to be around. I had guests talking non stop about her and what a pleasure she was. Our photos came out stunning, and were to us in no time. She takes the staged formal photos where they are needed which allows her to focus more on the raw, candid, opportunities a wedding presents, catching so much more than anyone could imagine. I highly recommend her to anyone in the market for a photographer, you will NOT be disappointed.

g a tommy gun. That iconic gangster shot. That's all. And Armen got that shot from all different angles, positions, and even had my wife holding the gun at one point. The photos are so marvelous that even my friends are posting and sharing them on Facebook! I'm having large prints made so I can hang them in my office and remember everyday how I was gangster for a moment in time. Thank you Armen for caring about the groom too.

y, she was was not only our photographer but also our savior. Her camera bag had emergency items we never thought of, including pliers! Then when there was drama, she was so kind to keep us focused on us and not the troublemakers. My other vendors even wanted her contact information afterwards to reach out to her and thank her for how amazing she was to them. That is a true sign of finding someone with class. Armen was even able to get us photos quickly, which truly helped to replace memories of any drama that day with all the fun, happy moments. Plus, she was able to completely see our vision for styles of photos and expand on them. Some of the photos she captured are so artistically beautiful that they look like they belong in art books or magazine covers. These images will not only be treasured by us, but also our future generations, honestly they are that amazing.

d I could not be happier with Armen, or our wedding photos! Her photos perfectly capture all of the sweat, love, and tears that went into planning our wedding, as well as the raw emotions and utter joy that our guests exuded. When planning, my fiance and I always said we wanted our wedding to be fun first and foremost, crafty and unique, and for everyone to enjoy themselves fully. And all of that comes through so vividly in our wedding photos; even the formal photos exhibit that air of being stunning mementos, but also reflection of so much fun and happiness of that day. Upon our first visit to the Glasbern Inn (our wedding venue), my fiance and I perused the wedding albums provided, and were very impressed by one from Armen Elliott. We immediately went home and researched further, only to confirm our suspicion that Armen was very talented, and exactly the kind of photographer we wanted for our wedding; she was the first vendor we booked! Even from our email interactions, you could sense the passion and excitement that Armen had. And our suspicions were confirmed again when we met at her house for our consultation, and spent the next hour talking about our vision/inspiration, her style, and adding on some "extras" to our package, including an engagement photo shoot in NYC (where we live) and another shoot on the mountain where my fiance asked me to be his GF 5 years prior. We got our first taste of Armen's photography style during our engagement shoot; she was on fire - moving swiftly, envisioning and capturing amazing angles and candid shots that perfectly capture our chemistry and playful spirit. Plus, the three of us had a blast doing it! For our wedding day, Armen showed up again with high passion and energy, and a razor-sharp focus considering the chaos that ensues on the morning of a wedding. Talk about HUSTLE! Armen was back and forth between the girls' room and guys' room, making sure she was capturing all of the important moments between friends and family, as well as the details. Her organization and direction made our formal photos smooth and efficient, and she was able to keep everyone focused without being surly, like other photographers I've worked with before. She made it effortless. Once the wedding officially kicked off, Armen & her second photographer were quick on their feet, moving around everybody to capture the wedding from all angles!

and captured the true essence of our relationship. We also received our photos back quick and we cannot stop looking at them! The photos are amazing quality! We even had a photography friend comment on how amazing the photos were.

ed to be. She helped in times of crisis, she gave advice, and kept me (the bride) calm. I would 100% hore her again, and I’m so glad she was our photographer. She is really more than a photographer she is practically a DOC!!

ter, made each of us feel comfortable, and could easily blend in with the party to get her photojournalist styled photos. The resulting images are going to be treasured for years to come. Many thanks to Armen for bringing her talent to this important day.

us help. She made sure to capture all shots we had requested ahead of time, and came to the rehearsal to prepare for the next day and learn who everyone was. Not only were her pictures beautiful (not to mention, delivered within 6 days and the album in our hands within 2 months), so many of our friends and family still talk about how great our photographer was! To top it all off, Armen came to our after party to capture a few photos, we cannot thank her enough! Armen exceeded all expectations we wanted in a wedding photographer and we will continue to recommend her to all our friends and family! Thank you Armen!

did our engagement shoot in NYC, our wedding in the Lehigh Valley, and kept in good communication with us when we moved to Georgia in the months leading up to the wedding (clearly, it was a hectic time in our lives)! She always had an upbeat attitude that was contagious, and plenty of great ideas for photo ops. Her direction was also great (helping us with angles, the best ways to pose, etc.) and when it came to the actual photos... wow. They're gorgeous! And the amount of time it took her to have them ready... I think it was maybe a week (if even) until they were all ready for viewing! I was astonished. floored. flabbergasted. I have friends who didn't receive their wedding photos for MONTHS! We had them in no time at all. If you're looking for a photographer, look no further... call Armen. You won't regret it. It will probably be one of the best decisions you make while planning your wedding. THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING, ARMEN! <3

they were with her. From attending the rehearsal, being at my house very early, riding the limo bus with the girls to the church, riding the bus with the wedding party after the ceremony to white castle, Lafayette for pictures, the reception and then a bar for the after party, Armen captured the whole day! Did I mention her pictures are amazing! And it is not just pictures, she is an amazing person who thinks of everything. During the day my daughter mentioned we forgot to get a crochet hook for the loops on her dress, Armen over heard us - and she had one! Within 24 hours she sent us a dozen pictures and the rest the next week. Pictures were posted online for all of the guests to view, and we had a ton of compliments. One bonus I love, Armen sent us an app to download on our phone so we can view the pictures at a touch. Oh, and my daughter's album is already done, not even 2 months after the wedding! You can't go wrong with Armen, she is amazing!

aissance Men/Women or Universal Geniuses." Open your arms, Hypatia, Maria Gaetana Agnesi or Trotula, and embrace one of your own: ARMEN ELLIOTT! Not to be confused with "Abbas Ibn Firnas or Armen Firman, a Renaissance man who lived more than 1,000 years ago. . . [and allegedly] was the first to make glass from stones," Armen Elliott is alive and well and ready to amaze you with her INCREDIBLE artistry, transforming "light writing" into art extraordinaire. Never had I witnessed a Renaissance artist until July 28, 2018! Thanks, ARMEN!

them daily. Every person we have shown the pictures to has said how much they loved them (including a few who have cried!). We could not have imagined spending our wedding day with another photographer-Armen was so much fun and was the best wedding decision we made!

g her, she immediately was taking notes on our vision for our wedding. She captured moments that I never thought of asking for in our wedding, When I disappeared on the wedding day Armen came looking for me as she had "bride separation anxiety" lol She captured the feel and vision of our medieval event -- right down to the three outfit changes. There are many moving parts to a wedding and Armen was the "calming influence" throughout the day. We are in awe. Armen made everything so effortless from the engagement shoot to the wedding day preparation, the ceremony, the group and individual photographs and the party party party celebration. We had a 6 foot "knight" of armor on wheels and she caught people dancing with him and even a "congo line dance" giggle. I swear the woman was on roller skates to get all these photographs. She even sent me an application I downloaded on my phone with a sampling of our wedding photos. So now I just tap and touch and "poof" I'm reliving my wedding. We had only one time to get "the photographs right" and Armen is it!!!!! Thank you so much -- you are perfection.

seeing the work she did for my sister, I knew she was the photographer I would some day use for my own wedding. Armen is very personable and brings so much energy to your event. Everyone was amazed at how quickly she learned everyone's name and addressed everyone personally. Looking at the pictures she took, you would think there were multiple photographers at our wedding! I would highly recommend Armen for any event and can't wait to use her again to capture our future memories!

t to capture all those different angles. I would call everything 'quirky traditional'- we got all our formal portraits without feeling stuffy and some beautiful candids and details. Our photography experience was perfection. I could NOT believe I sat in our honeymoon hotel looking through all our pictures---lightning fast. Armen made our experience light, fun, and stress-free. Future couples are in for a treat if they choose Armen :)

earsal and then our wedding day...Armen was top notch. Armen is professional, kind, and fun. She makes you feel at ease, as if you've known her for years. Not only were our photos absolutely gorgeous, but she got them to us within 4 days of our reception! Armen goes above and beyond...while getting ready to take some shots after our ceremony, we realized my dress was just a little too long and I kept stepping on it when I walked. Armen came to the rescue, pinning up the front half of my dress. No one could tell it was pinned in 3 places and I could walk and dance without worrying about my dress. I would choose her 10 times over to be our wedding photographer! Thank you Armen for capturing memories Shane and I will share for a lifetime!

n a few less-than-exciting photographers early in the process when we received a recommendation from a mutual friend to meet Armen. After a casual meeting in her home, and once we sampled some of her portfolio, it didn't take us long to trust her with the responsibility of photographing our rehearsal, dinner and wedding day. Our photos were quickly available online, and the entire shoot was quickly mailed on a flash drive. We also appreciated the option to have the photos compiled in a hard-bound book. Armen provided a very personal touch to her work, she was very accommodating to special requests, and she always had the right vantage point without being in the middle of the festivities. We are happy to recommend her.

d not afford her talent and she worked with us to find a way to fit our budget. After seeing the pictures from our wedding, I couldn't be more grateful for her willingness to work with us. She offered her beautiful home to us to get ready at, but as we lived so close to the church, we had her come to us. She came to see our houses before the wedding to get an idea of where and what she might shoot, she came to the rehearsal to take pictures and learn about all the guests involved, she worked with our priest to ensure she would not be intruding on the ceremony and everyone loved her! She is such a sweetheart and very enthusiastic. Even when we had to rush out of the church, she ensured we got all the pictures we wanted and was so speedy our bridal party was grateful. She tromped all over downtown Bethlehem with us even though it was only 30 degrees with a crazy wind! Her co photographer, Ed, did an amazing job as well. He worked with the groom's side while getting ready and stuck with the bridal party during the private cocktail hour. We got a lot of great shots I couldn't have planned if I tried. My parents loved Armen and were so happy with her professionalism and attitude and were blown away by the apologetic thank you card for letting her move around the furniture to capture the day's moments. My husband, who is quite shy, enjoyed her and her work so much he was racking his brain for other events to book with her. She is a gem and we love our pictures. Tell her what you want and she will bend over backwards to deliver, I'd recommend her to anyone and everyone!

ase with Armen!!! From our intial meeting many months ago to the rehearsal and finally our big day Armen, kept a great balance of friendly and professional. Armen is also very accommodating. She opened up her beautiful Victorian mansion in historic Easton for pictures as well as the place where myself and groomsman got dressed. Armen pays particular detail not just to her surroundings, but to each individual's personality and the particular relationships shared. And that all comes out in her photos!!!!!

er. She made sure the day went smoothly and without a hitch. She has such a warm and mild disposition you can't help but smile when you see her. She forms such a close bond with her clients that u feel like family. Their may be other photographers but only one Armen! If your reading this don't think Twice! Book Armen for all your photography needs! I can't imagine going with anyone else. Her expertise 100% contributed to my special day.

ganized, professional, super resourceful with everything. The sweetest person ever... words can't express our experience with Armen and gratitude for helping to make the day amazing. ❤️ We keep thinking of what other event we could have just so we could use her again...

ver made us feel awkward or uncomfortable, even if we weren't in the best poses. We had so much fun working with her. Our pictures also came out amazing. We love every single one of them. She had great recommendations on places to shoot as well as worked with us to go to the places we wanted. The added bonus? We had all of our pictures back to us within 48 hours! We could not be happier with her work product, personality, and professionalism. Thank you Armen for capturing such incredible images for us!

joy to work with overall.

d had the opportunity of working with. Armen is one of the most caring, genuine, and down to earth people I have ever met. From our engagement photos, to our wedding photos she made sure everything was perfect. She is the type of person that I didn't feel that we needed to meet with after booking her, because that is how much trust we had in her. My family had the opportunity of meeting her at our rehearsal dinner, because Armen felt it was important to get to know all of the most important people in my life. My family fell in love with her and her style, just like my husband and I did. She was snapping pictures left and right and got amazing candid shots that will last us a lifetime. At our wedding, I did not see Armen sit down once (not even to eat). She was in the mix and capturing amazing moments. My family and friends said that the pictures Armen took belonged in a magazine and were impressed by her professionalism, dedication, and passion. Armen is so amazing, that my sister booked her to photograph her wedding this June. Armen has a passion for what she does, and tailors her style to fit the needs and personalities of her clients. She is by far the best photographer in the tristate area, and you will not be disappointed hiring her. Not only did I get amazing pictures from Armen, but I am gaining someone who I have the pleasure of calling my friend. I can't wait to see her again in June for my sisters wedding.

t she truly takes care of you as a client as well. She opens her gorgeous home to your bridal party to get hair and makeup done the day of the wedding . When we arrived she had all the rooms ready for us and just catered to our every whim! I knew from the moment we booked Armen that we made the right choice but she truly went well above and beyond any of our expectations. Look no further than Armen for your photographer, you won't be disappointed!

album because there were too many great shots (is that even possible?) That's so much for capturing our day so perfectly!

aspects of her services. I couldn't have asked for a better photographer to capture all the special moments of my wedding day. She was a dream come true. I would highly recommend her to anyone!

from our special day. We loved working with you as well as our wedding party. You were beyond organized and made us feel comfortable throughout the process. Thank you again for everything. Love Andrea and Drew

not imagine a better choice out there. From doing our engagement photos to the wedding photos, she was on point with every detail and moment. We absolutely love our wedding album and additional photos. She did not miss a single moment. My wife was able to get ready in her beautiful home as well. Also, she listened to what we wanted. My wife found specific ideas online and showed them to Armen. Armen then incorporated these into our photos. Lastly, she was wonderful and delightful to deal with the whole time. She devoted her entire attention and work ethic to us. She was truly exceptional. I highly recommend her. Thank you, Armen.

and event, she was an absolute pleasure to have around. My friends, family, and I were amazed at how friendly and professional she was, even with those guests who were not a fan of having their picture taken. She handled the day with such grace and captured our special memories with such lovely pictures. We look forward to the opportunity to work with her again sometime and highly recommend her to others.

in tune with understanding what we wanted and envisioned. She made it a point to familiarize herself with our entire bridal party and immediate family. She was very creative in her work and took outstanding pictures that I never would have thought to ask for but was very grateful to have. She captured the entire day just perfectly. Anytime I went around to say hi to someone at the reception, she was right behind me ready to capture that moment. She was key to capturing photos through different angles and knew just the right timing to capture perfect sunset pictures. She was also familiar with our venue. This was a plus because she mentioned turning off the pond fountain during certain pictures, other wise it would appear as if a fountain was coming out of our heads. This is something I never would of thought of until I had seen the pictures. She was very well with handling a large bridal party, 7 bridesmaids & grooms, and large family. As soon as we met Armen we had no interest in even meeting with another photographer. We could tell instantly how knowledgeable she was and that photography truly was a passion and not a hobby. We highly recommend Armen as she was a pleasure to work with.

engagement photo shoot and while getting ready for our wedding. She took pictures for the entire day, and her photos are a combination of candid and posed perfectly suited our personalities. We loved every moment of working with Armen!! We would (and probably will) definitely hire her again!!

I going through the album! We were screaming and loving each picture more than the last! These are incredible! You have captured our incredible day so beautifully! WE CAN'T THANK YOU ENOUGH!!! Thank you!!"

t was beautiful to see. I caught her sitting with several of our relatives, chatting away, having a wonderful time, which is so rare but so wonderful to find in a photographer. You could tell that she really loves her job and that will come out in the photographs. I cannot wait to see our final photos!

photos work to tell a story that is compelling, beautiful, and true to the emotion of your special day. Armen is a talented artist who is communicative, responsive to clients’ requests, and prompt with sharing her stunning photos. Given the fact that my husband and I lived out-of-state while planning the wedding, we especially appreciated these qualities. In addition to having these qualities, Armen is also a really good sport who will go above and beyond the call of duty. For example, on our wedding day, she trekked through the snow to capture some beautiful photos of our bridal party and even helped stitch a bridesmaid’s dress when the hem came undone in the limo on the way over to the church. Throughout our wedding day, Armen was unobtrusive yet fully present. She was both easy-going and able to efficiently and effectively manage taking formal family portraits and capturing moments as they unfolded naturally. We could not have been more pleased with Armen’s work. We highly recommend her to couples who are planning their weddings!

tions or concerns that I had. She truly goes above and beyond her duties. For example, she came to our rehearsal just to meet the people involved in the wedding and set up lights at the church. Now we have priceless pictures from our rehearsal that we wouldn't have had otherwise. I would strongly recommend Armen for your special day. Her attention to detail, talent, and thoroughness are second to none.

ence. However, what made us ultimately go with her was because we liked her, and she was also great interacting with my parents and family. Armen did our engagement session the summer prior to our wedding. We lived in Philadelphia. Prior to the session since Philly is not her city, she researched locations rather than relying on us and suggested the perfect spot for the shoot! During the session, she was thorough, patient and artistic. We received so many compliments on our engagement photos. During our engagement, we received several hand-written notes in the mail from Armen - an extra special touch that we were not expecting that got us excited for the big day. Armen lives in a beautiful Victorian house which was the most elegant backdrop for our wedding photos. Since I am not from the Lehigh Valley, we were thrilled to have a home in which to take pre-ceremony photos. After the wedding, Armen was so prompt with our digital images. However, our lives got busy, as many newlyweds' lives do! We knew we had to select our wedding photos for our album, but just did not get to it quickly. We were so grateful Armen checked in with us to make sure we had our album in time for the holidays; we even had it in time for Thanksgiving. The album was beautiful in quality and presentation. In sum, we were so pleased by not only the beautiful work she did, but also her generous support throughout our engagement, wedding and beyond as a newly married couple, too! She truly understand bride and groom couples well!

lls”. First thing that caught our attention was her genuine interest in getting to know us and telling about herself in a face to face conversation (in our case via Skype). She has this positive energy about her that just draws people towards her and makes you very comfortable in front of the camera. As part of our package we had an engagement session with her, which was the first time we met in person. After spending a couple of hours and watching her work, we knew that we made the right choice. She’s extremely talented, attentive, and very considerate of people she’s working with. On the day of our wedding she was magnificent. She took charge, but still managed to be out of the way of the mad house that was my apartment, took a noticed of small details, and captured everything that was happening that day, making sure everyone gets their spotlight. She was open to ideas and not stuck in stereotypes of wedding photography. She’s truly a photojournalist who makes you feel and look amazing. The photos from our engagement session and the wedding came out so wonderfully perfect. Her talent, skills and of course, experience speaks for itself. One look at the photos and you know it was done by a pro who takes pride in her work and cares about the people she’s photographing. Her response time to our inquiries was remarkable. Within days we had our photos posted online for friends and families to view. Both of our families fell in love with her, and how can you not. She’s captured our attention and later our hearts. Thank you Armen for your wonderful work and extraordinary pictures. (Lada)

ng each of the events. Armen did just that and more! Now as we look over our wedding photos (which arrived less than 2 weeks after our wedding), we are able to remember not just the moments, but the emotions we were feeling during each. The photos are simply stunning! Aside from the incredible photos, Armen is an absolute pleasure to work with. She is deeply, deeply invested in her work, as evidenced by the time she takes to get to know you and your husband, take engagement photos, and even attend the rehearsal. She spent almost all of the wedding day with us so that she wouldn't miss a beat, and it really was a pleasure to have her with. Armen is also very kind and respectful, answering questions and helping wherever she can throughout your planning process. I highly, highly recommend hiring Armen Elliott for your wedding day!! We are so glad that we did!

and added in a few creative things of her own, which we loved. The pictures from our wedding turned out AMAZING, especially those from the off-site locations. You have truly done an amazing job in capturing our memories! Thank you!

rs in the area who want much more money for much less effort. We loved her.
