MJ Photography & DJ

had a small wedding with less than 40 guests due to Covid and I was concerned that it would be difficult for a DJ to get such a small crowd going, but a couple of our guests told us it was the most fun they had ever had at a wedding reception. Our venue came with a wedding coordinator that was a nightmare. She kept trying to change the order of events during the wedding. Joe completely took charge behind the scenes to keep everything on track and I could not be more appreciative of the stress that he relieved. He also executed every special request that we had perfectly. Joe is the best DJ I could have ever wanted and more.

akes you feel so comfortable and makes the photo shoot process effortless and I was all over capturing candids. Joe was so organized and guided us through all the formalities of the night as well as kept the dance floor alive. The yard games and photo booth fit great at our venue and kept guests entertained all night! They both have great easy going personalities and I could not be happier that we found them for all these services.

ith each other. Melissa’s attention to detail was superior. Her work speaks for itself. Joe listened to our guests requests for songs and was able to blend them in as we had multicultural music.

lls like no other getting all the hilarious dancing shots. They both understood what my fiance and I wanted from our silly music selections to funny pictures with friends. I felt beyond comfortable around them Joe created memories with his music and lights and Melissa caught every moment. They even went above and beyond and live streamed my ceremony last minute for me so that my grandparents in Nebraska could be there with me. I could not have been more happy with them, if youre looking for vendors that will make youre event beyond perfect this is it.

ping for - ambient lighting also a plus. Love the different packages they offered and we were able to select one that fit our day! Super detail-oriented and pleasant to work with. Answered all our questions! Would highly recommend!!!!

right there with a sewing kit to help. Joe picked out a great playlist for everyone to enjoy. It had some oldies and some recent pop songs for every generation. They helped make our reception a blast and I keep hearing friends say how much fun it was. I highly recommend them for any event.

f the event to keep things running smoothly. Mellisa and Joe did an excellent job and obviously work great as a pair. They both are very willing to do anything to help and are extremely talented in each of their respected careers. I would highly recommend hiring MJ Photography & DJ for any event you may have!

appreciate his ability to pronounce all of our family's names correctly (I'm Polish, my husband is Irish/Italian). You won't regret choosing Joe to DJ your event!

the family, bridal party, and groom/bride pictures on track and on time to make sure we got every picture we wanted. There is alot going and its easy to lose track of time The wedding was only a days ago so we have only seen the sneak peak pictures but they came out fantastic, the lighting at my venue was a bit dark for portraits so she took the time to make sure they were quality photos Definitely highly recommended!

100% recommend this wonderful couple for both your dj and photo needs! It’s great that they work together, as it’s a one stop shopping, and they are able to work together with the photos and music! We love them!

y to capture the biggest day of our lives at a price point that we could afford. We could not be more grateful that we found them!

with multiple photo shot ideas and was fully prepared for the night. She was so organized during all the large family/ bridal party shots it made our pre wedding time so relaxing and enjoyable. Multiple guests commented on how organized she was. She listened to all the things that We wanted and was able to get us photos very quickly after the wedding. The photos came out absolutely amazing. From the very start of wedding planning Melissa was the most respectful and easy to work with out of all my other wedding vendors. Would highly recommend!!

ays on time, prepared, and responsive. The previews we've seen from Melissa's photos look amazing and Joe did a great job Dj'ing the day of the wedding. He played all of our suggested songs but was also able to read the room and had great song selections throughout the night. Aside from the jobs they were hired to do, they were willing and able to help out with anything came up. There are plenty of things that will stress you out on your wedding day, but MJ Photography & DJ will not be one of them!

Highly recommended! And I’m actually going to plan a party next year just so we can hire Joe as our DJ because we need to make up for the lack of dancing at my wedding. Lol. And that is NOT because the music wasn’t good, Joe did an awesome job and met all of our expectations and more. Everyone was just too busy visiting & it was a fairly short wedding. Look forward to dancing in the future! Lol. And Melissa as well, went above & beyond our expectations. I’ve seen some sneak peeks of my photos and we LOVE what we see! Can’t wait to see the finish product! Not only that, she was so attentive, A fantastic director when it came time to her photography and quick but NOT sloppy when doing so. True artist! She knows what she is doing and I’m hoping to book a photo shoot with her in the future. Thank you again Melissa & Joe for all that you did for us!!

table, and good vibe and connection with them. They were both so professional yet also very down to earth and easy to work with. The night of the wedding, Joe played every song we had requested, and also kept the party going with his own amazing mix of music. Melissa’s photography is just stunning. My husband and I are not the most photogenic and honestly hate having our picture taken, but through the whole process Melissa helped us, made us feel comfortable, and she captured amazing moments for us!! Melissa also seriously saved the day by helping get my veil to stay in my hair! And given her experience with weddings, I’ve heard stories of her saving the day many other times as well! I would highly recommend Joe and Melissa to anyone!!! Thank you both so much for helping us on our big day, and making it that much easier for us, and to Melissa for capturing all of these beautiful memories for us!! Love you guys!

tely be doing it again! The process was really simple - we picked a date and explained our ideal pictures. Melissa helped us decide on a time, and we picked the location. We met there at our location - she was super punctual and came ready to photograph. She analyzed the area and set the agenda on where we photograph first, so that we get peak sun times that wouldn't shadow our pictures. The session was super light and fun, and she guided our poses throughout the session. From our perspective, we questioned if the pictures were going to look staged, but after seeing them, they look so candid it's amazing! At the end of the session, she asked if there were any specific pics we wanted to take. Overall, it was an awesome hour. We got teaser pictures of our day about a week later, and i'm so excited to see the rest. They came out flawlessly. Our photoshoot was in a public area with a lot of traffic, so I was nervous some of our pictures would have cars in the background, but someway, somehow, Melissa snapped the pics perfectly so you can't even tell we're near a street! We're doing an island destination wedding, but if we were tying the knot locally, we wouldn't hesitate to hire Melissa again. We will definitely use her once we start planning a gender reveal/maternity shoot in the future. A five star rating doesn't suffice for how happy we are with the quality of service.

and more!

e was on top of it! When it came to dancing, he had EVERYONE on the dance floor! My parents, aunts uncles, friends and teens! We had such a great time! A huge thank you to MJ DJ services!!

a, PA- she loves to travel)! She knew exactly how to pose us comfortably, plus shes not afraid to go anywhere for the perfect shot! Her editing style is PERFECT! I will always be calling her time and time again for our photos. (As a wedding videographer)I have also had the chance to work with Joe a few times! Each time, the dance floor is always packed with the best music, plus he is great at reading the room to ensure everyone has a great time. He is also the "assistant" to Melissa on her photography shoots- he is always super helpful and ensures we are all smiles throughout all the photos. I always recommend MJ Photography & DJ for all your wedding day needs from photo booth, live stream, uplighting, photography and DJ!

made sure to meet with my partner and I several times to plan out every detail. They were attentive to our needs and answered all of the questions that we had for them, down to the smallest detail. Going over the music with Joe was extremely helpful in organizing a timeline and structure for the wedding day. His suggestions and advice from experience were spot on, and gave us an immediate comfort in knowing it would run smoothly. Melissa was extremely accommodating in photographing pictures, before during and after the event. Her eye for lighting and attention to detail really helped give us some amazing wedding shots that we will cherish forever. The shots with all of our family members were extremely organized, and she was able to capture everyone with enough time for our guests to still enjoy cocktail hour. I would recommend MJ Photography & DJ again in an instant; the day was not only perfect, but I would not change a single thing. They made the entire process seamless and really went above and beyond. Thank you Joe and Melissa for such an awesome experience!

y rather large and noisy family and got some absolutely magical night shots! We also had Joseph live streaming the ceremony, which was great for friends and family that couldn't make it!

grandparents big screen TV so that they felt like they were there the whole time. Joe was very attentive and professional. I am so glad that my grandparents were able to share our wedding day with us through live-stream and I am very grateful to Joe and MJ Photography!

His attention to details was extraordinary. My parents live in Florida and were unable due to health reasons to attend my daughters wedding. I asked Joe if he could "Live stream" the event and he understood the importance of the request. It was essential to me, my daughter and my parents that they be able to "attend." Weeks before the event, Joe worked with my dad (88 years old) to secure the feed and make sure they were able to get a clear picture and the sound was good quality. He was patient and kind to my dad during the set up. During the event Joe made sure that there was interaction between the bride and groom and it was as close to "being there" as possible. This technology is a blessing. Joe's ability to make it happen with quality and sensitivity was divine. As the mother of the bride, I was delighted my parents could attend through cyberspace. There was a three hour cyber feed where they were able to see the arrival of guests, the ceremony, the toasts and the special dances. It was prearranged that when the loud drunken dancing began, they would "sign off." Old folks don't need to see that! If you are looking for a true professional to live stream your event to guests that can't attend, please consider Joe at MJ Photography & DJ. He will send an e mail invitation that is a cute custom invite and really set the tone, and made the technology clear and easy. Even for an older person. Thank you for bringing my parents to their grand daughter's wedding! I appreciate you and your team very much!
