Jorge Garcia
Owner
Lover of coffee and everything travel related!
I started this journey of photographing weddings on a whim more than a decade ago and have enjoyed the ride ever since! My background in graphic communications and my attention to detail has helped develop my style and keen eye for capturing moments that are romantic, candid and classic. What I enjoy most from wedding photography is that it blends portraiture, still life and documentary styles. My favorite part of the day is the couples prep which is an excellent time to get to know them, their family and friends!

Jorge and his team were incredible! From the initial introduction call to our engagement shoot to planning our day of timeline to the wedding day, Jorge was very attentive, professional, and friendly. Jorge made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera during our engagement shoot that we knew we made the right choice for our wedding day. We loved Jorge’s portfolio and style of giving us some direction but having a lot of movement and not just standing in rigid poses. We had a great time and felt at ease during the engagement shoot and wedding day. We could not be happier with how our pictures turned out!! Jorge captured the day perfectly and we love being able to relive our wedding day through his photos!

When I first began searching for photographers on the knot I knew I wanted our wedding photos to be mostly candid with a few posed shots. I came across Jorge and loved his natural style and it was clear after our engagement photos I made the right choice. From attentiveness to response time and his true passion for capturing your most intimate moments, Jorge and his team exceeded our expectations

Absolutely thrilled with the experience we had with Jorge Garcia & Peter for our wedding! From the moment we met, their professionalism and passion for photography & videography were evident. They were incredibly easy to work with, making us feel comfortable and natural in front of the camera.
The day itself was captured beautifully, with each shot perfectly reflecting the joy and love we felt. Their attention to detail and ability to catch those spontaneous moments really made our photos exceptional. The quality of the images was outstanding, and the turnaround time was impressively quick.
We couldn’t be happier with how our wedding memories were preserved. If you’re looking for a talented and dedicated photographer who will go above and beyond, Jorge Garcia photography is the one to choose. Highly recommended!

I’m incredibly late to posting this review (a lot’s happened since the wedding), but I have to give a shout out to Jorge Garcia and his team for capturing our wedding day and being really phenomenal to work with. When I called Jorge, we were maybe only 5 months out from our wedding date, and he reassured me that the timeline wouldn’t be an issue. We talked through what I wanted for the photography/videography, which was a little unconventional, and he helped me hone my ideas.
The day of our wedding, he showed up with his team and immediately got to work – we’d planned to take a series of photos in Central Park on the way up to the Museum of the City of New York where our ceremony and reception took place. The team showed up early and was ready to go as soon as we arrived. Jorge did an excellent job helping our families pose without looking too posed. He also had a lot of patience with my husband and me (we’re not the type to study what angles make us look good and generally just want to take joke photos), and made sure we got shots that looked good but also like us. I also really appreciated that he delivered a lot of candid shots, which we were the most excited about.
If I had to make a critical comment, it would be that the music in the wedding video is super cheesy (think Brand New by Ben Rector), which is not at all our style, but I hadn’t provided any direction to the song selection because I hadn’t even considered it, so I think that’s on me. As a result, I asked if we could get the raw footage that was taken on the day, and Jorge was happy to oblige. I should also note: I’d read a ton of reviews from couples who’d had to wait ages to receive their photos/video, and I’d been a little nervous that was par for the course, but it wasn’t the case with Jorge at all. He got fantastic photos back to us really quickly, and the video also came even sooner than I’d hoped. Honestly, Jorge is just a great person who is incredibly professional and delivers a great result. If you’re considering booking Jorge, you should have zero reservations.

Jorge shot our wedding on 10/12/23, and I have no words for how perfect it was. He was the first vendor we hired after we had a date chosen. Jorge was on time, we didn't feel rushed at all and got all the shots. We didn't feel the need to provide a shot list because we wholeheartedly trusted Jorge. He provided our galleries in the promised time frames and they were stunning. Jorge was able to wrangle all the families during the family portraits and he even got a smile out of my dad, which is challenging. If you're considering Jorge and his team for your wedding, just do it!

Very professional and excellent at what he does. My now husband and I knew nothing about posing and Jorge guided us through all the shoots. We were pressed on time the day of our wedding and he ensured to get all the shots we wanted. The quality of the pictures were great and he and his team were a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend Jorge for your wedding photography needs.

Jorge and his team were incredible!! We could not say enough good things about them. Throughout the entire planning process he was very responsive and always quick to reply to my messages. He put a lot of thought into our day and took the time to know my husband and I as a couple. He was so kind the day of our wedding, and really listened to what I wanted (and didn't want!). The pictures were all SO beautiful and we will cherish them forever (plus, we got them back super quick!!!). You could not go wrong with picking Jorge as your wedding photographer.

Jorge and his team were professional, warm, personable and very easy to get along and work with. We scheduled an engagement shoot to test out the possibility of him doing our wedding and we were very happy with the way he carried himself and the results. He always showed up on time, very caring and our waterfront wedding pictures in Jersey City were INCREDIBLE to say the least. He knew exactly the vibe we were looking for and he was calm in times of stress. We were referred to him by a good friend and we're so glad we booked him. We're looking forward to staying connected to him and using his services for future events!

Jorge and his assistant were great at my wedding! We were extremely happy with how many great shots we got, and Jorge did a great job managing our many and large group family photos. He is clearly dedicated to his craft, and he was especially efficient and focused. The preview was large and let us see many great photos very quickly, and we received about 200 more photos in the full bundle than the contract required Jorge send. We're able to make two full albums from all our favorite shots.

Jorge did our wedding about a year ago and I must say it was not the easiest wedding to work due to weather but Jorge made it possible and made it happen.

Planning a wedding can be very stressful but Jorge and Geraldine made our day completely stress free and they provided a great service. From the complementary engagement session, to the wedding day, they were an absolute dream to work with. They guided us, our entourage and our families in every step of the way and provided an amazing gallery of pictures. I was able to enjoy the full day and live in the moment without worrying about taking pictures to document one of the most important days of our lives. I highly recommend this team to any couple getting married.

Jorge and his team are amazing. They are EXCEPTIONALLY talented, patient, kind, and easy to work with. I cannot recommend them more.
Our wedding venue closed in the middle of planning, and we had to find another. Jorge could not have been easier to work with despite the fact that we sent him dozens of emails, and changed plans several times. He is a great person, and anyone would be lucky to have him and his exceptional team at their wedding.

Jorge did my cousins wedding, I saw the photos and booked him instantly for my October 2022 wedding.. I was looking for photo and video within a reasonable amount of money that was not going to charge a ton, Jorge’s prices and work are phenomenal!! I was a type A perfectionist bride, and was amazing with me, reassured me along the way. The day of the wedding his team was prompt, had everything planned perfectly, and their whole team worked so well together!! His photographer for the men @Geraldine_petrovic was absolutely amazing as well, my husband and groomsmen raves about her!! But the best part.. I thought because he did not charge and arm and leg like most photographers now a days I was going to “get what I paid for” I got my photos back and they were OUTSTANDING, 10000 times better than I could have expected or imagined.. in fact, instead of choosing a certain amount of photos that I “liked” to print and upload to my Facebook to share with friends and family… I uploaded the entire 900+ photos.. was not one that I didn’t love!! He captured perfect moments not only from the bride and groom, but the guests , the bridal party, and most importantly our families .. video was amazing too.. came out beautiful I let them choose the music (but they offer to let you pick) I couldn’t have chose better music myself, the transitions were smooth, did not miss one important thing, music selection was incredible! I did, and do recommend paying them the little bit extra for them to stay until the end of your wedding, i chose to pay for the extra hour for both photo and video and it was 100% worth it, the best parts of the wedding happened in the last hour and they were their to capture it all film & video! Definitely recommend Jorge and his team! THANKS JORGE!!!

I can't express enough gratitude! Our wedding was quickly planned during the pandemic, which made planning extremely difficult. But Mr. Garcia was very accommodating in every way possible. We decided to go traditional and not do a "first look". I didn't realize how difficult this makes it for the photographer because most of the family and bridal party pictures are usually then prior to the ceremony. To complicate things further, our venue had a tiny area to take pictures. We did not take this into account, but Mr. Garcia and his team certainly did! The pictures were not only beautiful, but he took great shots that made use of every inch of venue, extending the designated photo area in such creative and varied ways. He basically made a small courtyard appear as a small space of a large palace. The final album was tough because there were so many beautiful pictures. I highly recommend him. He captured the feel of our wedding perfectly!

Couldn't be happier that we chose Jorge for our wedding photographer! Jorge has a great eye and was insistent in the best way. I was done taking photos but he encouraged my fiancé and I to leave the reception for another 20 minutes or so to get more photos of just us two and I'm so glad he did. His style is simple and elegant, producing beautiful, classic photos. He was very prompt in giving us the first "sneak peak" photos and then in giving us the whole gallery

Jorge and his partner Geraldine took amazing pictures for our engagement shoot and wedding day - we're so happy with the final result!
Our wedding was on a yacht sailing around NYC (departing from Jersey City). In the weeks leading up to the wedding, the forecast called for mid-70s and sun....amazing! We woke up the day of and thunderstorms were forecasted all afternoon - really rough! Jorge and Geraldine were able to pivot and were able to coordinate a very quick (but worthwhile) "First Look" right before it started raining. Once it began to rain we had to switch plans again and we convinced a nearby bar/restaurant to let us in and take some pictures. Obviously it was not the optimal backdrop but Jorge and Geraldine made the most of it.
Once on the boat they were completely in their element - changing lenses, moving around lighting, and navigating tight spaces, they were able to capture some great shots.
Overall the weather/locations were not that great, but again, Jorge/Geraldine's ability to go with the flow and improvise helped us have the best wedding ever!

From the first time we met Jorge and did our engagement shoot with him I could already tell how talented this man was. We had the pleasure of working with him for that shoot as well as our wedding! Him and his associate were so professional, so sweet and such great photographers! Our pictures came out so gorgeous. The candid shots were some of my favorites! He knows how to get you to pose where it looks natural and comes out beautiful in the pictures. Honestly he’s the best so I would not hesitate to book him asap, you won’t regret it, he’s worth every penny!

We got married in October of 2021 and Jorge was our photographer - he was recommended to me by two different coworkers. We scheduled an engagement shoot as it was included with our package and were very pleased with Jorge and the photos he took. Unfortunately our experience on and after the wedding day was different.
Almost every time we spoke before the wedding, he was very unsure of our wedding details. On multiple occasions, I had to remind him that we booked him for 10 hours and each time he responded as if he were shocked and would make comments like, “wow ok that’s a long time.”
On the day of my wedding, he often seemed annoyed by any requests I had. My bridal party were not at all happy with his demeanor both in general and to them directly. At one point, one of my bridesmaids asked if she should put her hand on my shoulder and he essentially scolded her and made a comment about how it was creepy. I also found out recently that while we were getting ready, he was having my bridesmaids set up for his photos - dress, different items, etc - even though many of them still had to finishing getting ready. My entire bridal party was completely put off by him and his demeanor that day.
As per our contract, were promised preview photos within one week and our images within 6-8 weeks. It took almost 3 weeks for us to get our preview back and it took 10 weeks for us to get our photos back. My biggest gripe with this is not the timing, but the fact that there was ZERO communication on his end letting us know there was a delay, I had to chase him down constantly. I understand people get busy, it’s life, but a little transparency and professionalism goes a long way.
When we did receive our photos back, it was SO obvious that he rushed everything. Small details that could have been easily fixed with minimal effort from Jorge were just left as is - for example my husbands jacket was caught on his best mans jacket for every single picture of him with his groomsmen. I was incredibly clear about things that I wanted, nothing unusual. One thing I specifically requested, both in writing and verbally on multiple occasions, was that I wanted a flat lay that included my invitation and some of the other options for items that I had provided for him. I even ordered a separate bouquet specifically for this which I told him he could deconstruct and use. Unfortunately I never got my flat lay and Jorge barely used any of the items I brought, including a ring box that my SIL bought for me. When approached about this and other concerns, he answered incredibly defensively, making excuses and offering rebuttals for every single thing I brought to his attention. It was finally after I essentially poured my heart out that he back tracked a little, never truly taking responsibility. He said he would look for more photos and get back to me (this was in December), and I didn’t hear from him until this week (April).
I do believe that Jorge has a great artistic eye for photography and I have some beautiful photos, but unfortunately the experience in marred. I wish Jorge luck in the future and hope this experience will change his approach for the better.

Hi Pia, Let me start offering my apologies to your disappointment with your experience wit...
h us. 2021 was an incredibly challenging season for all wedding pros as you can imagine with all the postponements, re-scheduling as well as new client bookings. Many photos, albums and videos were behind our usual schedule, even outside editors that we had to use were behind schedule. I do admit that I should have handled communication a lot better than I did and I thank you for pointing that out. Many of my weekends were 3 in a row wedding shoots and unfortunately communicating with you fell through the cracks. The wedding day is a fast moving day and I try my best not to miss any shots. Regarding your lay flats, I took the best approach with all the items you had. By the "creepy" remark, I was referring to how a hand looks when it comes over a shoulder or around a waist and there is no connecting wrist or forearm for your eye to go to. In the final photos this hand looks like it's just jutting out making it look creepy, it was a joke. I appreciate all your feedback as well as the kind words as it helps me better serve my couples in the future.

I highly recommend Jorge and his team. First off, he responds quickly and is easy to communicate with. Planning my daughter's wedding had so many stressful moments, but working with Jorge was one of the stress-free, pleasant parts! He did both the engagement shoot and wedding day photos and both turned out wonderfully. He is polished and professional, as well as warm and kind. He and his team had every angle covered at the wedding, but did it in a way that you hardly noticed them. Hiring Jorge Garcia Photography was one of the best decisions for the wedding that we made.

Jorge and his videographer partners at Dream Cinematography were an amazing team that really made our wedding night extremely memorable through their expert photos and videos. They took their time to canvas the right places and poses before and during the wedding, and it really showed in the final collection. We absolutely LOVED our special moments captured and blended together with our musical choices for our highlight video, and separate ceremony and reception videos. They are all amazing and we would gladly work with them again soon. They were professional and timely, having given us our photos and videos way before the original promised dates. We're extremely happy we chose Jorge and Dream Cinematography for our one and only special day!

Jorge was wonderful to work with and very fairly priced. We wanted our photography experience to be relaxed. It was important to us to enjoy our party and guests and not have pictures cut into our cocktail hour, conversations, etc. Jorge worked great with my husband and I to accomplish that goal. Even despite the sun shining, and the extremely hot day we ended up having -- he was a trooper. As a result we have beautiful posed pictures as well as candid photos. If I had a chance to grab him before he left I probably would have asked him to stay a little longer, as our wedding was extended beyond the normal time frame. Otherwise great experience and would work with him again in the future!!

Jorge was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. He helped us feel comfortable in front of the camera, was very quick to respond to all my emails, took his time to answer my 1000 questions, and most of all, captured the most beautiful pictures of my perfect day. He made sure to include special requests my husband and I had. He and his team worked flawlessly all day and I am blown away by the pictures we got! I'm still dying with anticipation for our video! I highly recommend Jorge!

I first hired Jorge last minute for my engagement. Even though it was short notice he was very helpful and made the whole experience easy. So I went with Jorge again for my “covid wedding”. Considering that this wedding was done during the pandemic and with how sensitive things were during the lockdowns and last minute changes. Jorge was professional and respectful the whole way through. He was super flexible when we needed anything changed or wanted to shift around certain things to fit our timeframe or schedule. Going thru Jorge made it as easy as 123. Not to mention… the pictures… well even to this day our family and friends still talk about how beautiful we looked in those pictures! To say the least we were beyond happy with the photos and his service!

Jorge was absolutely fantastic for our engagement photos! The day we had planned for ended up being really cold and windy. Since we needed our pictures for our save the dates, Jorge was more than happy to bear the cold with us. He made us feel really comfortable and captured our best moments. After the session was over, we were sure that we were going to look freezing, but you couldn't even tell in the pictures, which we were so gorgeous and a true testament to Jorge's talent.

From our engagement photoshoot to our change-of-plans backyard wedding, working with Jorge was an incredible experience! His work on his website is just as impressive as the work he did for us- we just received our wedding gallery and are over the moon thrilled with the outcome! He captured every moment we wanted plus so many beautiful candid moments that exceeded our expectations. Jorge and his team were extremely personable, kind, and professional. I am so grateful I found Jorge to be apart of our wedding day!

Jorge was a wonderful photographer for our engagement and wedding photos. My sister used him a few years ago at her wedding and we were very happy with how everything turned out that I decided to use them at my own wedding. Jorge did a great job for our engagement photos in Central Park and spent much more time with us than we expected to make sure we had several great shots to choose from. He was very patient and kind while trying to plan a wedding during the uncertainty of COVID-19. Him and his team were very respectful of protocols.
Jorge is very easy to communicate and came early which makes all the difference during the stress of wedding planning. We had a small intimate wedding and we are so happy we went with Jorge!

My husband and I hired Jorge for our wedding on 9/26/20 and I couldn't be happier with his work! Please do yourself a favor and check out his beautiful website and how incredible his photos are. He truly captures the beauty of your special day and puts his own unique artistic twist. Jorge was very professional, easy to talk to and incredibly flexible. I was searching for months for the right photographer and I am thrilled we made the right decision. My husband and I just received a a good amount of preview photos and couldn't believe how quickly he was able to send them to us....we were so excited to see how beautiful his work is. I felt his prices are exceptional for the work he provides and I highly recommend hiring him as your wedding photographer. I cannot wait to receive the rest of our photos!

Jorge and his team were patient, funny and incredibly easy to work with – they went above and beyond to make every moment of our wedding perfect. The photographs captured the most intimate and detailed moments of our wedding in such a beautiful and unique way. We loved the combination of both black & white and color photos, along with posed and candid shots. He really was able to harness our happiness!
We cannot recommend Jorge enough for your big day!

As a result of COVID19, my husband and I planned a backyard wedding in just a week and our Best Man recommended Jorge for our small ceremony. Jorge was great from the start, especially given the short notice! He responded almost immediately to my initial inquiry and all of my follow-up questions. On the day of, Jorge was extremely professional and even arrived a little early. Jorge made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera and gave us great tips on how to adjust our postures to look more natural. Jorge's turnaround time for our edited photos was even better than expected and I cried so many times when admiring all of the photos we received. I knew that Jorge's photographs would be great, but I did not predict being so in awe of them. These are photographs I will cherish for years to come. All of our family and friends thought the photographs were amazing as well. I highly, highly recommend Jorge for any occasion.

I can't say enough good things about Jorge and his team! If you are looking for a great photographer to capture your day -- he's the one! He knows exactly what shots to get but he also will take any shots you ask him to. It was great working with him for our engagement photos in advance because we got to meet him and know what to expect on the big day! And the photos came out AMAZING. Everyone looked stunning in each photo that was taken.
He was super polite and got so many great shots during the ceremony and reception without getting in anyones way! He also works along with another company for video and we used them as well. So if you need both video and pics - contact Jorge.
Our day wouldn't have been the same without him and now we have these photos of the best day ever to last us a lifetime!!!

Jorge captured so many amazing photos of our NYC wedding in Decmeber 2019!
We travelled from England to have a winter wedding! We had never met Jorge until the day of our wedding and instantly he made us both feel comfortable, and confident that he would get some awesome photos... we were not disappointed!
Jorge (and Jen) were so patient even during a hectic day of trying to cram in all things NYC.
We are so so happy with our wedding photos, Jorge truly is a talented photographer!
For any brides wanting every special moment captured, I'd highly recommend Jorge- professional, helpful, and such a friendly guy!

My fiance and I are so happy with our engagement pictures that Jorge did! We reached out to Jorge to do our engagement pictures after we saw what an amazing job he did photographing our friend's wedding. We did our shoot in Central Park in NYC in the fall and he picked all the best spots. As we were walking in the park he would stop and notice the lighting or a beautiful backdrop and have us pose for pictures. He was great at making the poses look natural and as if we were having a typical day in the park. The best was when he found a path for us to walk down and we got to take pictures in a quiet spot without any other people around, which is very rare for a nice evening in the park. We used a picture Jorge took for our Save The Date and got numerous compliments on the picture. My fiance and I highly recommend Jorge for any wedding related photo shoot!

I would just like to start out by saying THANK YOU so much to Jorge Garcia Photography for doing such an amazing job on both our engagement photos and our wedding photos. My husband and I heard about Jorge Garcia Photography through a family friend and we are so glad we did because he did not disappoint! Jorge made the process of finding a photographer/the photo session planning/ the wedding photography planning very easy and comfortable! He answered all our emails/questions so quickly and we received all our photos in a timely manner as promised. My husband and I were very nervous about having our pictures taken and worried about how awkward we would feel however we were so happy that was not the case with Jorge (and team). He helped us both feel very relaxed and comfortable throughout the whole process! Jorge is very creative and amazing at what he does! We received many compliments on him (and his team) from our guests about how quiet and easy going they were; as well as how great the photos he captures are. He is extremely talented! Lastly, The photo album website he provides is very easy to navigate and is very convenient way to help you share his amazing work with your friends and family! My husband and I have only positive things to say about him (and his team- both his second photographer and the videographer team as well ) and we will continue to recommend him to anyone looking for a great photographer!! Thank you again Jorge and team!!

Jorge Garcia Photography and his team (Geraldine) was everything I could have asked for in a photographer and more! From the beginning, they were extremely helpful with planning every detail of the day and answered any and all questions that I had. On the day of, Geraldine was organized and captured every moment beautifully. I would definitely recommend her! Jorge was super responsive and delivered the wedding photos when promised. Don't hesitate and book them for your wedding!

Jorge was great! He was patient with guests and kept us calm and anxiety free! He was also very knowledgeable of locations around Brooklyn and knew what angles would highlight our features really well. The photos were a great mixture of closeups, candids, portraits, and group photos.

"Smell her eyebrow", I'm never going to forget that phrase because Jorge used it while he directed me during my photoshoot on my special day.
From the beginning, Jorge was very good about making time to talk with us over the phone to discuss what we wanted for our special day if we prompted him. These conversations were very productive because my wife and I came into those conversations with questions which Jorge was more than happy to answer. I honestly learned a lot about wedding photography by talking with Jorge.
My wife and I had very specific ideas about where we wanted to take photos on our wedding day. So I cannot speak to Jorge's ability to offer any ideas for photos.
The day of our event he showed up promptly on time with his assistant. The actual photography sessions were very pleasant, and he was able to add elements of fun to what can be a very exhausting number of hours of smiling and posing. We definitely appreciated his positive energy throughout the day. Jorge also did a great job of taking lead and helping our videographers set up for the ceremony right before the wedding ceremony and reception.
Less than 2 months after our event, Jorge shared the link to our photos with use by email. I found the only system he uses to deliver the photos digitally easy to use. After we got the photos Jorge followed up with us to get feedback. We shared honest and respectful feedback with him and he was very receptive about it.
For others considering using his services, if you think you want a many pictures of your guest during the event taken by him, be up front with Jorge so he can get another person to help him make it happen.

Jorge knows what he's doing! He was very professional and effective with all our communication as I planned my wedding while living across the country. He showed up on time on the days we had agreed upon, and worked very well in the background, taking amazing photos without me noticing his presence. He also took charge of posing us very well and creating memorable photos of us and our happy, boisterous family. His photo quality is incredible, and I'm glad we chose Jorge as our wedding photographer!
