Authentic, Organic Photos That Feel Like You

Philadelphia & New Jersey Wedding and Family Photographer

A heartfelt approach to photography that blends clean, timeless imagery with artful storytelling. I want you to have images that are both visually stunning and deeply meaningful. From genuine emotions to poetic details, I document your memories with care and intention, ensuring every single frame reflects who you are and how you feel during this special time in your life.

I believe photographs matter most long after the day has passed — when they become reminders of who you were, how you loved, and what this chapter of life felt like. My hope is that the images we create together grow more meaningful with time.

Hi, I’m Ajá

I’m drawn to the way a hand finds another without thinking, the way a room feels just before something important happens, and the way love shows up differently in every season of life. My work is rooted in storytelling, emotion, and presence. I care deeply about creating space for people to be themselves, knowing that the most meaningful images often come from moments that happen organically.

Whether I’m photographing a wedding day or a slow afternoon at home with your family, my approach stays the same: I’ll gently guide when needed, then step back and let the magic unfold naturally. The result is imagery that feels timeless, lived-in, and truly yours.

I’m a wedding and family photographer documenting joy, love, and human connection. 

The Experience

in their words

"Our photographs are absolutely gorgeous, we had the best evening going through them all and remembering little moments of the day — and discovering moments we didn’t know had happened. So much more than documentation, Ajá’s photos are full of love, emotion, energy, style and detail."

 -Nicole & Mike 

"Ajá is professional and warm. She genuinely wants to get to know her subjects and what their vision entails. I have gone to her with unique ideas and she consistently executes on our vision and puts extra thought into how she can make the photos come out perfectly. Whenever we use her photos, people reach out to us asking who our photographer was. She is the best!"

-Meghan

"Ajá is not only a skilled photographer, but everything she does is intentional. Her calm and collected leadership on our wedding day was so appreciated and her ability to truly capture the little moments that we'll now never forget was beyond impactful. She'll bring the energy and the soul to your images."

 -AJ & Marianne
