Our Portfolios
We answer that question with the pursuit of a classic and timeless look.
Creative portraiture combined with carefully captured emotion on a special day. Our goal is for you to love your investment just as much on your first anniversary as your fiftieth.
We understand you may not be the most comfortable in front of a camera. We keep our posing simple, approachable, and fun! If you feel good, you will look good and the essence of your love will come through.
Our goal is to always keep things light and stress-free on a day we know you need it!
WHAT MAKES A photograph great?
Marta repeta
Hailing originally from Lviv, Ukraine, Marta Repeta now makes her home in New Jersey. While she began shooting for Studio Nine in 2021, she has always chased the thrill of photographing beauty – both for candid moments on the streets of Europe and in the studio with high-fashion models. This duality of Marta makes her uniquely fit to provide a worldly, delicately balanced, and creative approach to photographing events like ours.
Despite making wedding photography her career, she still pursues creative side-projects like photographing fashion models and graphic design. When she is not busy with all that, she shares a cozy life with her fiance and their furry, four-legged son Brovko. If a day involves a delicious meal, good music, a thrilling escapade, or just a great chat over coffee – count her in!
Ryan Young
Ryan is a multiple award winning photographer that has been shooting with Studio Nine since 2015. He has a B.A. in English Literature from Penn State University, and recently lived and traveled throughout Southeast Asia. His experience as a travel photographer through 25 different countries has prepared him to tell the story of your day with his carefully thought-out and emotional imagery. Ryan is an amazing wedding photographer with the approach of a photo journalist, seeking out the quiet and intimate moment between the moment that encapsulates his couples’ story and family.
Living and working in Philadelphia, Ryan enjoys spending his free time either dining out with his wife and friends, or at home working on bespoke DIY projects and rehabbing his historical row home.
Michael Mason
Being photographed by Michael is such an experience, I wish all couples could have him as a part of their wedding day. Regrettably he can only be at one event at one time! Since his first shoot with us in 2019, Michael has consistently wowed one couple after another with his unique blend of humor, thoughtfulness, engaging energy, and dedication to creating and capturing beautiful moments. He is an expert in posing and communication with our couples, working beyond just the technical craft of creating a beautiful image but truly assuring that the beautiful person you are comes through his lens.
He is a man who has worn many hats, from stage acting to tending in Brooklyn’s hippest bars. He even still finds the time in the off-season to play parts at the local theater in Maryland where he lives with his wife.
Staff photography
We offer the option to book photography packages with one of our trusted and talented Staff Photographers! You will work closely with our Production Manager to detail your vision and timeline for the day, then we will assign you a Staff Photographer and brief them on your entire event. Our Staff are regularly immersed in multi-cultural wedding photography, partnered with our Main Associates nearly every weekend as Second Photographers and shooting weddings on their own as the lead. Since they are vetted and trained in our style and techniques, you can trust that you are getting an authentic Studio Nine experience while also being budget-conscious.
Staff packages typically are around 10 to 25% more affordable than directly booking an Associate.
