Studio A Images

I can't say enough good things about Adena and Studio A Images. From the first phone call with Adena, we knew that she was the right choice for our wedding photographer. Rather than rattling off a pre-written list of things that *would* be photographed for us, Adena was interested in getting to know us -- our unique personality as a couple and as individuals -- and what we were most interested in having captured on our wedding day. The result of that personal touch and thought shines through in our wedding photos, which are objectively beautiful pictures but also so uniquely "us". We also can't overstate how helpful Adena was in making our wedding day run smoothly. As someone who had photographed at our venue (Liberty House) before, she was full of suggestions and helpful tips - from the hotel we should choose for great first look photos, to a flawless timeline, and so much more. She and her #2 (Laura) showed up on time - early actually! - on the day of and kept things running more-than-smoothly. One of our favorite parts of the day was our doing couples photos together, which felt so easy and fun to do together -- we owe that to the vibes Adena and Laura brought. Adena managed our massive bridal party, family, and friends (210 guests) with ease and was so organized that we ran ahead of schedule and had time to fully relax and take in the moment before walking down the aisle. We are so grateful we chose Studio A Images as our wedding photographer and so highly recommend to anyone! We love our photos and loved working with her.

I don't know what I can say about Adena, other than that she's absolutely fantastic. We have used her services twice already. Once for mine and my husband's original wedding (a smaller family only ceremony during the height of the omicron wave), and the larger wedding reception this past weekend. The two events could not have been more different and she handled them both equally beautifully. She got us back our entire edited gallery of pictures for the first wedding in LESS THAN A WEEK!!!! She's so wonderful at managing time and keeping people in check as well as managing family dynamics during the whole process. She really listened to what my husband and I wanted and captured it beautifully. she even managed to capture beautiful photos of our wiggly toddler and energetic dog!  She is thorough, her rates are reasonable and fair given the high caliber of work she produces and she's also just a downright lovely person.

Adena was wonderful to work with! Lovely to be around and has a great eye. She was very flexible with any changes to our wedding schedule/set up while still providing gentle helpful reminders about key pictures we'd said ahead of time were important to us. She captured some really beautiful moments that my wife and I will treasure. We couldn't be happier with our wedding pictures!

Adena deserves 10 stars! She was a dream to work with: before, during and after our wedding. She listened so attentively during our pre-wedding calls and she was incredibly organized in capturing all our preferences. She even scouted a new photo shoot location for us when our original location went under construction. We felt so comfortable signing up with her, and on the day of the wedding she set us right at ease. It was a perfect start to our wedding day, having her coaching us through getting ready, first look, and portraits. She mingled seamlessly throughout our ceremony and reception, navigating around other vendors and capturing all the candids. The preview shots we saw the next day were spectacular, as were all the photos that followed - and she delivered everything precisely on schedule. We ended up with a fabulous collection of priceless wedding memories immortalized in her photographs. I would recommend Adena to everyone for any and all events or photo shoots. We are planning to get anniversary photos with her every time we’re back on the east coast - she has earned our loyalty and we’ll consider her a friend for life.

Adena was an absolute pleasure and talent to work with. She found amazing locations for photos, was super organized, and kept the entire day fun and relaxed. Our photos are beautiful and captured all of the special moments perfectly. I will definitely reach out to Adena the next time I need a photographer!

Adena captured our wedding day perfectly - not to mention making the actual day incredibly organized and stress free. We are so grateful for Studio A Images, can't wait for another excuse to work together!

Adena is such a talented, creative photographer. She is an absolute pleasure to work with. She made the experience of taking photos on our wedding day a joyful one. She was incredibly attentive to detail and did not miss any location or group of people that were on our list. She is extremely professional, was always on time, and managed the process flawlessly. We are so excited to have photos that captured the best day of our lives. Thank you, Adena!

Adena at Studio A Images was fantastic to work with. She did our engagement photos and wedding photos, and was an incredible pleasure to work with on both occasions. We had a wedding planner for the day-of (who was also great), but Adena effectively took on much of that role, ensuring a proper timeline of events and shepherding our less-than-attentive family members. The pictures came out great, and everyone talked about how professional she was! We will absolutely remember Adena for future events worth capturing.

We can't say enough wonderful things about working with Adena! Not only was she so easy to coordinate with, we truly enjoyed having her be a part of our wedding and her pictures capturing the day were SPECTACULAR.

Adena, Studio A Images, is very personable and made me and my family very comfortable when taking pictures. Our wedding day was pouring rain and we had a last minute location change, she easily made adjustment. Her photos are beautiful. Some looked runway, others were playful and all the colors popped right off the page. She captured the emotion gracefully. She is a truly a gifted photographer and artist and we were so lucky to have her take our pictures.

Hiring Adena was the best decision we made while wedding planning. She was such a pleasure to work with and was extremely professional and friendly the entire time. Adena is not only an excellent photographer but also a great person to talk to about everything wedding related (plus she has great dessert tips). Adena made sure to get to know us during every conversation we had and during our engagement shoot. By the time our wedding happened, we were so comfortable with Adena that it felt as though our friend was taking our photos. The photos she took are stunning and really captured the day and our emotions perfectly. Bottom line: hire Adena to photograph your wedding!

My husband and I first heard of Studio A Images from our venue's preferred vendor list, and I am so glad that we did. From the start, Adena was quick to respond to all of our questions and to help us to better understand what we were looking for in a wedding photographer (regardless of whether or not we chose her). It helped that she was familiar with our venue, but it's clear that her level of experience would translate to anywhere. When we decided to postpone our reception to 2021 due to COVID-19, Adena once again came through big. She swapped out our dates without hesitation (or fees!), and since we still wanted to get married on our original date, we hired Studio A Images to photograph that as well. Further proving that she was our guardian photo angel, Adena met with us one morning a few weeks before the wedding to walk around our new site to pick out photo spots. The day looked the way that it did all because of her! Throughout our day with her on 8/7, Adena provided excellent directions, and our photos came out beautifully! It's actually been difficult for me to choose which ones I want to have printed because I love so many of them. I would 110% recommend Studio A Images for any photography needs you might have. We will be hiring Adena for all of our future portrait sessions without question!

Adena is so great to work with and she perfectly captured our wedding day. She was also very flexible with our changing plans due to the pandemic and helped us alter our plans. She made us feel so comfortable and helped our day turn out perfect!

We had a wonderful experience with Adena! She was personable and made us feel comfortable in front of the camera. I loved the way our portraits came out and how she was able to capture moments of our ceremony that I hadn't noticed before. The turnaround to get our photos was super quick and best of all they look gorgeous!

Adena is an absolute dream to work with and a true talent -- do yourself a favor and hire her for your wedding!! My husband and I are blown away by her ability to capture the candid moments and real emotions of our wedding day without being intrusive at all (a big concern for us). Her organizational skills are unmatched and she helped plan our wedding day timeline and keep us on schedule the entire time. She's the calm, cool and collected person you want with you on your wedding day. We were not especially comfortable in front of the camera at first, but Adena knew exactly how to help us relax and act like ourselves. The engagement shoot was a huge help! Now we have these incredible, amazing photos that really look and feel like us as individuals and a couple -- we will cherish them forever. Thank you, Adena!! <3

Adena is a wonderful photographer and her photos are beautiful. My husband and I are so happy with our wedding photos and impressed with how well Adena captured special and intimate moments from the day. Adena was able to capture our personalities in her photos and tell our story. She is professional and reliable; was flexible to meet our needs; and an absolutely lovely person to work with.

Adena is not only a photographer but a true artist. She does not simply take pictures, she captures moments. Not every photographer will take the time to get to know their clients the was she did. She made us feel comfortable and at ease allowing her to capture the photos that were real and natural, not awkward. In addition to this, Adena is reliable and punctual. This left us with one less thing to worry about on our wedding day.

From the first inquiry email to receiving the final photos, working with Adena was effortless and enjoyable. As a queer interfaith couple, it was important for us to find a wedding photographer who understood us. Adena was, in a word, amazing! She respected complicated family dynamics, took every single special photo that we requested, and managed to somehow be everywhere at once to photograph every magical moment. I will cherish our photos forever - especially the ones of my wife and me, and of my 92-year-old grandmother, for whom this wedding was the party-of-a-lifetime. Thank you Adena!

Adena did an amazing job with our wedding pictures. Every single picture was perfect and she was such a pleasure to work with. She was so accommodating and she didn't mind being out on a freezing cold mountain top to get the best pictures. We would recommend her to anyone seeking a great photographer!

I really can't say enough wonderful things about Adena. From the outset, she is pure professionalism, warmth, and creativity. Adena took our wedding photos at Celebrate Harbor on Staten Island and she is such a pleasure to work with. I usually feel awkward around photographers but Adena is so experienced and down-to-earth that you almost forget you're being photographed. Adena is INCREDIBLY THOROUGH, asking that you fill out a form to list exactly who you want to have photographed (or not), VIP family/friends, etc., so that she won't miss a thing. And not only does she capture anything and everything you ask for, she's brilliant at taking the stealth romantic, intimate moments between you and your partner. Absolutely brilliant. We were just overjoyed at the results. I would recommend Adena in a heartbeat. Again and again.

Adena was everything we could have asked for! Her pictures were stunning, she did everything efficiently and she was fun to have around on the day! We can't wait to get out album to enjoy her pictures forever!

My husband and I don't love to be photographed, but found Adena to be so flexible and easy to work with. She took the time to get to know us and what we wanted for our wedding. She is very detailed oriented and very efficient, which we loved. She says what she means and met all the deadlines she said she would. We got our sneak peek, online gallery and photos as expected. And, the pictures are absolutely beautiful! Bonus points: Adena is GREAT at herding big and hard-to-focus family members!

We were married this past summer and used Adena as our wedding photographer. We really enjoyed working with her from the beginning and appreciated the time she took to get to know us and our vision for our wedding. She is easy to talk to and asked the right questions not making any assumptions about traditional wedding practices. She has experience with same-sex weddings and tailors her approach to each client. She sent us our photos within the time frame promised with links to share with family and friends and we are very happy with the quality of her work. We would definitely recommend her and would use her again in the future for other celebratory occasions.

I could not say enough good things about Adena and Studio A Images that would adequately convey how I feel about feel about the work she does. I saught Adena after I had a rough experience with engagement pictures. I planned my wedding predominantly from afar, so working with vendors had been a pain point for me. Working with Adena was truly a pleasure. She was friendly, super detailed, and organized. I never wondered if she was going to get back to me or if I had forgotten anything. I know she's a busy photographer but she always made me feel that #1 client. Having Adena and her assistant around for my actual wedding felt more like having a good friend by my side. And that is really where Adena shined. The pictures she ended up creating for us felt personal, authentic, detailed, and exactly how I remember the day. This is in large part because Adena "got us". She didn't force us to do something that wouldn't be representative of the wedding vibe we wanted but she nudged us to try things we wouldn't have necessarily done on our own.

Adena is all about the customer experience! From the get-go, Adena made the process very easy on us. We hired her for our wedding day pictures. She was very real and authentic over the phone, something that other photographers in the area seemed to lack. It was like talking with a friend rather than a vendor. To build on that friendship feel, Adena requests meeting all clients prior to the engagement. Instead of meeting in a corporate office feel, we met at a bar in town, and really got to know each other better. This made us very comfortable once the big day came. On our wedding day, she quickly gave us a run down of what we were going to do, and followed our shot list to a T. It was quick, enjoyable, and we can't wait to see the final product!

Adena is fantastic to work with - she is ultra-responsive and hyper-aware of the details, while remaining flexible. She shot both our engagement session as well as our reception, and we were extremely pleased with both sets of photos! Her pricing is affordable and the value of the end product is high. We also appreciated that she was enthusiastic about our less-than-traditional wedding plans (we had a micro-destination wedding in New Orleans, then a larger reception in Hoboken). On the day of the reception, it was clear that her number one priority was that we were at ease and enjoying ourselves. We couldn't recommend Studio A more!

We had adena as our photographer and highly reccomend her. She made us feel very comfortable and at ease with her relaxing fun personality. She answered our emails and phone calls very quickly and made our whole experience fun!

Deciding which photographer to hire was initially a daunting task since photography styles vary greatly. Adena's photojournalistic style was exactly what we were looking for. After talking with her on the phone for our first consultation, we knew we wanted Adena to be our wedding photographer. She is warm and personable, immediately putting you at ease when you talk with her; I immediately felt like we were friends instead of a client and vendor. She patiently answered all our questions and accommodated any requests easily. Additionally, we were impressed by her professionalism -- she is always at the location before you and has already scoped out all the best areas to photograph with the light that is available that day. We're so pleased with both the engagement and wedding photos she took. She captured all of the people and type of photos of our wedding that we requested. In short, you won't regret working with Adena for your event! We would definitely work with her again in the future (and we hope to be able to!).

I am so happy I found Adena from Studio A Images to do our wedding photography for our 10/7/17 wedding in Morristown NJ. Prior to finding her, I was overwhelmed in my search for a photographer - finding them all to be like cheap salesmen who were uncharging me and just wanted by business. From the first conversation we had, Adena put me at ease as she was calm, helpful, not pushy and down to earth. She was flexible to work within my budget and made my husband and I feel like valued clients throughout the process. I wanted to enjoy my wedding and with Adena's help I did just that! She was organized for all of our pre-wedding portraits and then disappeared into the crowd while managing to get all of the right shots throughout the ceremony and reception. And the quality .... AMAZING!! She captured so many intimate, genuine and quality (and funny!) moments without guests even knowing she was there on the dance floor! She will not disappoint!

Adena was a pleasure to work with in all facets of the wedding process. She was interested in meeting my wife and I to learn our personalities and preferences and executed flawlessly during the event. Adena rules!

My daughter got married May 28, 2017 – a large wedding at the Westin Governor Morris in Morristown, NJ. Adena Stevens at Studio A Images was the photographer. She brought another professional photographer (not just an assistant), and together they stayed for 9 hours! They were both top notch and we were 100% pleased with the way the day went and how the photos came out. They were able to catch precious moments in an unbelievable fashion. The getting ready photos, the “first look”, the bride and groom outdoors before the wedding, the formal photos, the Ketubah signing, everyone walking down the aisle, the entire ceremony, the cocktail hour, the still photos of the décor and setup, the entire reception, speeches, dancing, cutting the cake, etc. – all great!!! Not one complaint! We loved Adena! Her understated, quiet way of getting the picts was amazing. You hardly knew a photographer was there! Dealing with her during the wedding and after the event was a pleasure. Our albums are more than we could have hoped for! Adena’s patience and dedication to perfection made her the best choice for this important occasion! And I forgot to mention the engagement picts, included in her very reasonably priced package, came out fantastic – they really captured the love felt! She let my daughter and then fiancé choose any location – they chose Central Park – and dedicated nearly a whole afternoon to getting hundreds of pictures! You can’t go wrong booking Adena Stevens at Studio A Images (for any occasion).

My husband and I found Adena at Studio A Images after much searching. As a gay couple planning to get married in Hoboken, NJ, we were looking for a photographer with experience on both of those fronts--we didn't want our wedding to be anyone's guinea pig. When we came across Adena's website, it felt like a godsend. Her portfolio included many same-sex couples, and each couple seemed to be represented through their own unique tastes and styles, nothing felt "packaged" or filtered through a manufactured aesthetic--and what's more, she was a local. When we spoke with Adena by phone, we were impressed by her ability to use non-gendered language when discussing our plans (so many other vendors were fixated on who was 'the bride'). Adena continued to impress us throughout the entire planning process, with conscientious suggestions and assurances that were always spot-on. On the day of the wedding, rain loomed, and a few unavoidable issues came up with other vendors, but Adena's photography was the one factor we were not worried about. She navigated our pre-wedding pictures expertly, managing 25+ family members all while keeping calm and focus, and keeping us calm and focused as well. At the wedding ceremony and reception she managed to be everywhere at nowhere at once-- totally unobtrusive, but also capturing every special moment, including many we did not get the chance to witness ourselves until we saw her photographs. We recently received the photographs of the day and are beyond thrilled with the work. Everything we like about Adena's photography is there: attention to detail that is editorial-worthy, candidness that is documentary-like, and composition that is flawless. I unequivocally recommend her work.

Y'all! Stop right here! Studio A Images is the best out there! Adena took engagement and wedding photographs for my wife and I, and we are so thrilled with how the photos came out and all of Adena's hard work. Adena is super communicative and professional. She guides you through each step of the planning process, while also listening to your wishes and concerns. She was a strong presence of direction and organization at our wedding, but seemed to sink into the background to capture the most amazing candid shots. Long story short, Adena has it all: talented, friendly, and knows her craft. We highly recommend her!

Studio A Images is absolutely incredible. Adena is extremely professional, a fantastic photographer and a true pleasure to work with. We're so glad we had the opportunity to have her involved in our wedding.

I first found Adena list from an ad online and after looking at her pictures she immediately moved me. Her pictures were thoughtful, focused, creative, and they clearly show her expertise as a true artist. There is so much more to taking pictures than most people know and Adena is completely aware of her environment, her subjects and her work. She is a perfectionist but is very open- minded and can makes changes easily . We were photographed at a winery and some shots were more difficult than others but Adena make us comfortable and she took the most amazing shots of us . Even with my photo shy partner she was able to completely bring out our personalities in every shot . We couldn't have been happier with our pictures , our day and now our photographer. Everyone who sees our pictures comments on our photographer and they all say she is really amazing and we both concur . She will definitely take all of our photo opts in the future .

Adena is fantastic and such a pleasure to work with! We hired her for engagement and wedding photos. Initially, we were reluctant to do an engagement shoot (even though it was included in our package) because we didn't really want the pictures, but she convinced us to and we're so glad we did! In addition to having some great shots, we also felt more comfortable in front of the camera on our wedding day, just as she had suggested. We met with her a few weeks before the wedding day to go over the flow of events and the pictures that we wanted. She is very organized and experienced, and as a result we finished pre-ceremony pictures early and the day went off without a hitch! Because of her, we had more time to enjoy our day. And the pictures are amazing! We cannot wait to share them with family and friends. We highly recommend Studio A Images for you wedding!

Adena was amazing to work with. She did a wonderful job on our engagement photos and did a stunning job with our wedding day photos. A big reason we booked Adena was her journalistic style, she is non-intrusive when doing her art and truly captures the moments - she doesn't manufacture them. We were married in January 2016 during Winter Storm Jonas and Adena went above and beyond for us in every way. She showed up to our venue hours ahead of schedule and became more than just our photographer, but therapist and event planner as she began helping coordinate the events of the day when things started crumbling due to the weather. She was super flexible and when it was clear that some of our photo destinations were not accessible due to blizzard she found unique photo ops in and around the hotel. She even went so far as to show up the next day to our rescheduled ceremony. The photos came out gorgeous, and to anyone considering Studio A, Adena is a gem and was such a pleasure to work with. Thank you for making our wedding day fantastic.

Adena was attentive, incredibly professional, and everything we wanted. We loved Studio A Images immediately because Adena responded to all emails promptly and continued to respond to questions and requests right away through the day of our wedding. She helped us plan out our photo shot list to get exactly what we wanted and to help manage our expectations of how much could be done in the time allotted. On the day of the wedding, she arrived early and worked with us to go through the posed photos quickly. I can honestly say I don't remember seeing her at all during the ceremony or after the posed photos - and that's the highest compliment I can give a photographer - she was so stealth! We got the pictures quickly, a few weeks after the wedding, and I couldn't believe all the great candid shots she got. All of the guests were photographed and my mom was so excited that she finally was able to get a picture with all of her grandkids – something that hasn’t been able to do at past events. Everything was absolutely perfect and I would highly recommend Studio A Images for any event.

After meeting with 3-4 photographers, we chose Adena. We loved the photos posted online and the albums that she showed us at our initial consultation. She had photographed the weddings of several same sex couples and captured the romance and beauty of their special day. It was important for us to choose a photographer who was comfortable photographing a same sex couple and she was. She was experienced professional who made us feel comfortable behind the camera. She included a photo session before our wedding in our package. That gave us an opportunity to get accustomed to her style and for her to get a better feel for us. The fact that she really understood us was captured in the photographs that she took at our ceremony and reception. We absolutely loved our photos. She seemed to know exactly the shots that would be most meaningful to us during the entire day. She also took the most fun shots of our guests at the reception which made the photo collection of our special day a true reflection of all of the joy and fun we had. Adena was exceedingly professional and low key but also determined to get every shot we asked for. She even risked life and limb climbing up a tall ladder on the sidewalk outside of our church to capture a shot of everyone who attended the wedding ceremony. It’s one of our favorites.

We have had a delightful experience working with Adena & Studio A Images. It was important to us not to take big chunks of our day to take pictures - we wanted to eat and drink and enjoy the day with our friends and family! Adena was the perfect choice for us. She captured our posed photos efficiently, providing helpful but not overly long direction about positioning, etc. She took the time before the wedding day to get to know us and our preferences. Like most pros in this business, she offers the opportunity for the bride and groom to dictate which shots are important, etc, but she doesn't make you do her job for her in this respect: she knows how to find the best shots without being micromanaged! We wanted the key family photos, of course, but otherwise, we just wanted her as an invisible force documenting the day's events and capturing special, candid moments. Adena was happy to deliver. She was prompt, professional and friendly. She went above and beyond in several ways, including some little, but important, details - like making sure I removed my hair tie from my wrist before walking down the aisle, which I would have forgotten and which would have been in my pictures forever (whoops!). She has a great eye for detail. We lucked out with a beautiful, sunny day (and she took full advantage of that for photos), but we had the impression that she would have camped out in a blizzard if necessary to make sure she got there early. She really provided some much-needed guidance for this relatively low maintenance bride and groom, and we are looking forward to having our photos to cherish forever as a result of her great work! Thank you!

Adena was awesome! Made us feel comfortable from start to finish. Has passion for what she does. Very timely with all communications and deliverables.

Adena was a pleasure to work with. A calming personality on a hectic day. Her candids are the best! we had a blast doing our engagement shoot with her also!

Adena was great, she was extremely easy going and very flexible when it came to what we wanted. She was always prepared and ready to go. Taking family portraits can be very overwhelming, but Adena handled in perfectly and it was flawless. Very professional and easy to work with. Would definitely recommend Studio A images for all photo requirements.

Studio A was fantastic and extremely professional. We met with her a few months before the wedding and got to know her (and she got to know us). She also had us fill out a thorough form which ensures that we get every photo that we want on our big day! My guests all commented on her professionalism. Our sneak peek photo was great - can't wait to see the whole album!

Adena was fabulous from start to finish. We had no idea what we wanted in a photographer, and she guided us through the whole process professionally (but wasn't stiff). The shots are just beautiful--my families loves them. One family friend said she wanted to do her wedding over again and use Adena! The photos were delivered on time and in an orderly fashion that helped us a great deal.

Adena did a great job moving us along on the wedding day and got every shot on my list! More importantly, the photos were artistic and beautiful but still very real. We looked like us and not some posed actors.

Adena of Studio A Images was the photographer for our outdoor wedding. From our initial meeting until getting the final photos she was wonderful in her level of service and attention to detail. She placed a priority on getting to know our personalities in order to determine the style of photography we expected. On the wedding day she was prompt, prepared, and remained focused to achieve all of our photography goals without compromising the enjoyment of our day. The pictures exceeded our expectations and we recommend her with confidence.

We chose Adena, owner of Studio A Images as our wedding photographer. From the very beginning she was helpful, flexible, and had great suggestions. She took time to get to know us, our personality and style, and she knew all the right questions to ask to ensure that the photos from our wedding turned out exactly as we hoped..and they did. Her photo-documentary style really tells a story and all of our friends and family have been astounded by the quality of our photos and how they capture the true feel of the event. We could not have been happier with the experience working with Adena. She is definitely the photographer you want for your wedding.

Adena was brilliant to work with! She was both adjusting to the wedding chaos and last minute changes and was also perfectly firm enough to help with the progress of the wedding activities such that all the photographs got taken in a timely manner. Adena is also incredibly organized and works well with the bride, groom and families. You will not regret having her as your photographer!!

Adena is fantastic. Not only did she take amazing photographs, but truly got to know us as a couple so that she could capture our personalities and make sure that our photographs were authentic and reflected us. I highly recommend doing an engagement shoot - it helped everyone get to know each other and get us comfortable being photographed. Adena was always available by email to answer my questions, and was happy to talk on the phone to go over everything before the wedding. Having Adena there on my wedding day was like having a friend there with us. She checked in with us frequently and it was comforting having someone we already knew there with us to capture all of the important moments. She even helped bustle my dress! I would definitely hire her again and would recommend her to everyone!

Adena is not just an incredible photographer; she's organized, professional, and a perfect additive to a bride or groom's morning. The day can get a bit frenetic, but Adena has a way of keeping everyone calm and punctual, and makes sure everyone is comfortable with her work. She provides an outline of photographs the couple and family wish to take ahead of time so that every shot we really wished to have on our wedding day was captured. She'll go to really fun lengths to get gorgeous shots ( we climbed on rocks in the water!) Adena has a particular eye for capturing special moments, and made sure they were presented beautifully. Her coworkers are equally as professional and talented, and they made my wedding day even more special. I really can't recommend Studio A Images enough. I am so grateful to have had such an incredible experience! -Nora- a very happy bride!

Adena Stevens of Studio A Images was an absolute dream to work with! As soon as my husband and I met Adena, we knew we wanted to work with her for our wedding. Not only is she smart and kind, but it was clear from our first meeting that she is a true professional. Adena listened to our wants and needs re: our photography, and delivered on every promise. We opted for candid-style pictures, and she and her second shooter, Brandi, truly captured the feel of the day. From rocking dance floor pictures to special, romantic moments – she caught it all! The pictures she took of our decorations and atmosphere are stunning, and the posed and candid pictures of us and our guests are amazing. Everyone looks their best. On top of that, Adena and Brandi really faded into the background during the day – not once did we feel like we were being “followed around,” nor did they distract our guests from enjoying the ceremony. I would recommend Adena and Studio A Images to anyone. In short, she is professional, kind, attentive, and quick to respond and answer questions. We couldn’t be happier with her work, and are glad to know her as a person!

When I got engaged I knew I had to book Adena (Studio A images) immediately. My sister in law had already used her for two affairs so I already completely trusted her and knew she would do an amazing job. The photos came out beautiful-- that was a given but what impressed me most this time around was how Adena and Pete handled everything the day of the wedding. The week before, Adena and I had sat down and discussed how things would run and which photos were priority etc. but with a wedding party of 30 we knew things would be unpredictable. Let me say, with late comers and many (many) hyper children there was opportunity for a lot of stress but Adena and Pete improvised, wrangled everyone together and got the job done, not to mention on schedule. Not only did they prevent stress but were also super creative with their shots and just by trusting them (laying in the grass? Climbing rickety fire escape? Completely worth it) we had a blast and got one of a kind photos out of it.

We are so happy we chose Studio A (Adena) to be the photographer at our wedding! From our first meeting with her to the finished product, the process was amazing and flawless. We met with Adena twice in the beginning of the process so she could get to know us as a couple and understand what type of photos we wanted. She offered great suggestions and made sure she got everything we wanted at the same time. She followed up regularly with us, guiding us through the steps, was always there to answer questions, and was promptly responsive. Through our discussions with Adena we could tell she really knew the venue and scoped it out beforehand as well (both the church and reception). Unfortunately, it rained on our wedding day, but Adena put all those worries to ease. We discussed alternative options the day before and she made me feel much better. The venue staff was very impressed with Adena's knowledge of the area and how she suggested to deal with the rain. She really took advantage of her surroundings, from the natural light in the church doors to the breathtaking NYC skyline at the reception. The portraits she took were very natural and she was able to capture all of the special moments throughout our day in the candids she took. She was always accessible during the wedding if we needed her, but blended in with everyone at the same time...we didn't even notice her taking some of the pictures we got! We got so many compliments about Adena from the guests at our wedding. We loved that she gave us a sneak peak picture the next day, which got us even more excited to see everything! The turnaround time was so fast as well. We absolutely love the finished product! We get to relive our wedding day when looking at all the pictures Adena took. They are breathtaking, she truly captured the whole event and our personalities. Throughout the ceremony, she picked up on the emotion of our faces, the little laughs and smiles, and during the reception she really captured the fun atmosphere. Overall, we loved Studio A and would recommend Adena hands down. She truly listens to her clients and delivers an amazing product. She was such a pleasure to work with and is such a nice person. We will definitely be recommending her to our friends and contacting her for any other future events where we need a photographer.

Adena and Studio A Images were amazing - from the first night we met Adena and discussed our vision of our wedding and what we would like our pictures to be like, to the wedding and the photos we received so quickly afterwards! Adena really cared about us and our wedding as if we were old friends - that type of personal attention and care definitely makes a difference when dealing with all of the stress of a wedding! In addition to Adena being awesome to work with - running through parks and climbing trees at our engagement session, to her taking control of the situation and making sure all family members were where they were supposed to be and lined up properly for portraits at the wedding - the photos are amazing! We got married at the Liberty House and counted on the beautiful gardens and skyline as our backdrop for the pictures. Due to the crazy weather we had this year, the gardens were still dead at our early spring wedding. Nevertheless, Adena made the most of the city skyline and found amazing creative ways to get awesome outdoor photos even though the grass and garden were brown and dead. Our pictures are amazing, they really capture the essence of the day and aren't the typical "everyone stand in a line" boring photos. I would highly recommend Studio A Images for your wedding and any other big events you want photographed!
