Juliana Magalhaes | Intimate Weddings & Proposals Photographer
LEAD PHOTOGRAPHER
Operating out of Mountainside, NJ, Juliana Magalhães Photography offers you stunning, genuine wedding photography captured with thoughtfulness and elegance. Juliana is a travel and lifestyle photographer focused on capturing meaningful moments in an effortless, natural, and refined way.
I specialize in proposals, save-the-date sessions, elopements, and intimate weddings, creating a photography experience that feels as special as the moment itself. My approach is a blend of direction and spontaneity, allowing you to feel comfortable in front of the camera while I guide you into natural, timeless images.
For proposals, I work closely with you to plan every detail, from choosing the perfect location to ensuring the moment unfolds seamlessly and authentically. For couples sessions and save-the-dates, I focus on storytelling, capturing your unique connection in a way that feels genuine, elevated, and editorial.
Elopements and mini weddings hold a special place in my work. I’m drawn to intimate celebrations where every detail matters and every emotion is felt deeply. My goal is to document your special day with intention, preserving not only how it looked, but how it felt.
More than just photos, I offer an experience designed to make you feel confident, present, and truly connected to your moment, wherever your story takes you.

We recently had our engagement photo shoot, and we couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out! From start to finish, the experience was smooth, fun, and genuinely special...
. Juliana made us feel completely at ease in front of the camera, offering guidance while still letting our personalities shine through. The location, lighting, and creative direction were absolutely perfect, and the final photos are beautiful! I loved everything about it!
I would definitely use her services again and I highly recommend her to others !

Working with Juliana for our engagement and rehearsal dinner was truly an incredible experience from start to finish. Her communication was outstanding the entire time—she made eve...
rything feel so seamless and effortless to plan, which meant a lot to us during such a busy time.
On the day of our events, she went above and beyond. She even stayed extra to make sure we got every perfect shot, and her dedication absolutely shows in the final photos. Not only are the pictures stunning—clear, creative, and beautifully captured—but she also made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera, which made such a difference.
One of the most meaningful things she did was capture full videos of our rehearsal dinner speeches. Having those moments recorded so we can look back on them forever is something we will always be grateful for.
We were blown away by how quickly she delivered our gallery—within 24 hours! That level of professionalism and care is rare.
We had such a positive experience overall and truly couldn’t recommend Juliana more. If you’re looking for a photographer for a special occasion, she is the one you want.
