BEHIND THE LENS

About Lizzie


I'm Lizzie, and I’m lucky enough to photograph incredible people as they experience the best days of their lives. With a background in marketing, I developed a deep appreciation for artistry, storytelling, and refined details, values I bring into every wedding I photograph. Now in my 9th year as a wedding photographer, I specialize in capturing iconic celebrations with a timeless yet effortless approach. My clients are discerning couples who value elegant imagery, impeccable service, and a seamless photography experience. Known for my poised and calming presence, I ensure that every moment is beautifully documented and genuinely felt.

Born and raised in New York’s Capital Region, I have spent the past decade calling New Jersey home, with much of that time in Hoboken and now Ridgewood. When I’m not capturing celebrations, I cherish time with my husband, our son, and our golden retriever named Maui.

Kind Words

“I’m actually a wedding photographer myself, so choosing a photographer for my own wedding was obviously a HUGE decision, but the second we had our consultation with Lizzie, we knew she was "the one," and she's done nothing but exceed our expectations.”

“Lizzie radiates kindness, professionalism, and good vibes.”

“I keep looking back at our gallery and get emotional. She captured everything - every detail, every feeling, every special moment.”

“Kris Jenner works hard, Lizzie Burger works harder.”

“I probably talked to over 20 photographers and couldn’t find somebody that I wanted to hire until I found Lizzie. I booked her the same day I talked to her and it was the best decision!”
