Hey there!

New Jersey Wedding Photographer Alternative creative artistic candid photojournalistic

We are John and Lauren, and we are so happy you found us!

John is a dad with an endless supply of corny jokes, a husband to Nicole, a photographer, and the founder of Inspire Me Imagery. He and his family live right near the beach just outside of Asbury Park.

Lauren Beischer

Lauren is a Mother of Boys (it’s almost like being a Mother of Dragons), a wife to a straight up super-hero of a dad (hi Rich!), a photographer, and a complete gardening nerd in Central NJ.

The people who gravitate toward us for their weddings tend to be chill, relaxed, and sometimes quirky folk—and we wouldn’t have it any other way. We LOVE our couples and are passionate about telling their wedding day stories through our camera lenses.

Our goal at Inspire Me Imagery is to give every single couple photos we would want for ourselves. Everyone on our team is creative, artistic, and passionate about their craft, but more importantly, our photographers are down-to-earth, easy-going, and friendly people who love what they do and are never pushy on your wedding day. We want you to have fun working with us!

That's why we take such a personal approach to working with couples from start to finish. You'll get to know your photographer before your wedding day so that they feel more like a friend than a vendor. This helps them blend in, and helps everyone feel relaxed, which leads to natural smiles, moments, and emotions. Every couple is different, which is why we have very flexible packages so anyone who feels moved by our work can have awesome, beautiful, and unique photos to tell their wedding day story.

John and Lauren are AMAZING. We knew we were in incredible hands from the first email we sent. They responded promptly and not only gave me all of the information I needed but seemed excited to work with us and be there. Our engagement photos were absolutely incredible which only got us even more excited for our big day!

This weekend our wedding was absolutely incredible. John and Lauren captured every moment and Lauren even saved the day when my HUSBAND lost the button on his jacket! My family had an amazing time working with them and they did an incredible job at making everyone in our blended families feel important and special and present.

I would give them 100 stars if I could! Thank you so much for everything!
