Hi! I'm Laura!

I’m a wedding and brand photographer for creative and adventurous hearts and and your resident work-life balance aficionado. I’m so glad you’re here!
My favorite thing in life is sitting out by my fire-pit with a glass of Riesling and a s’more in hand with friends and family surrounding me. I'm rarely ever found without a warm blanket wrapped around me, and If my wallet didn't frown upon it, I’d probably buy everything in Anthropologie Home and Free People.

Oh man you guys. I knew it was going to be a great day just because Danielle and Frank are so insanely in love and so genuine but I didn’t know it would be this good. My second shooter, Cinnamon and I walked into their rooms being welcomed by friends and family and we were instantly smiling ear to ear. When Danielle’s father Tom came up to us he gave us huge hugs and you could just tell how emotional and happy the day was going to be. His little girl was marrying the man of her dreams and you could just tell that nothing made Tom happier! New Jersey Winter Wedding - Laura Lee PhotographyNew Jersey Winter Wedding - Laura Lee Photography New Jersey Winter Wedding - Laura Lee Photography New Jersey Winter Wedding - Laura Lee PhotographyNew Jersey Winter Wedding - Laura Lee Photography

Danielle’s mom and sister helped her put the final touches on becoming a bride and this is always one of my favorite parts! And Danielle’s mom, Eileen looked seriously STUNNING in her mother of the bride dress!New Jersey Winter Wedding - Laura Lee Photography

The ceremony took place at St Catharine’s church in Glen Rock, NJ and it was a beautiful ceremony led by Frank’s dad’s cousin.  This was the same church Danielle’s parents got married in and there were so many special moments! New Jersey Wedding Photographer_Season's Catering_Laura Lee Photography_0021New Jersey Wedding Photographer_Season's Catering_Laura Lee Photography_0022 New Jersey Wedding Photographer_Season's Catering_Laura Lee Photography_0023 New Jersey Wedding Photographer_Season's Catering_Laura Lee Photography_0024
New Jersey Wedding Photographer_Season's Catering_Laura Lee Photography_0025 New Jersey Wedding Photographer_Season's Catering_Laura Lee Photography_0026We went to Saddle River County Park for portraits and had the most beautiful winter light I’d see all season. It was such a blessing! This winter (as most winters) are always so grey and gloomy but we had some great sunshine! We were so thankful that it was around 40 degrees and sunny (opposed to the teen temperatures and rain and winds the few days leading up to the wedding day) and we got to do all our pictures outside!New Jersey Wedding Photographer_Season's Catering_Laura Lee Photography_0027 New Jersey Wedding Photographer_Season's Catering_Laura Lee Photography_0029 New Jersey Wedding Photographer_Season's Catering_Laura Lee Photography_0030 New Jersey Wedding Photographer_Season's Catering_Laura Lee Photography_0031New Jersey Wedding Photographer_Season's Catering_Laura Lee Photography_0032New Jersey Wedding Photographer_Season's Catering_Laura Lee Photography_0035New Jersey Wedding Photographer_Season's Catering_Laura Lee Photography_0034New Jersey Wedding Photographer_Season's Catering_Laura Lee Photography_0033

The reception took place at Season’s and the food at cocktail hour was UNREAL. There were literally rooms and rooms of food. Dahlia Flowers did a beautiful job on the reception space and was such a pleasure to work with!
