a hudson valley wedding & portrait photographer here for your journey, capturing the real moments, meaningful connections, and experiences that feel as good as they look.

meet adile jones

i’m adile, a photographer with over 15 years of experience based in the hudson valley, documenting weddings, families, and meaningful life moments across upstate new york.

photography has always been about more than beautiful images for me. it’s about people, relationships, and preserving moments in a way that feels honest and intentional. i believe the most meaningful photographs are created when people feel comfortable, supported, and truly themselves, not rushed or overly posed.

my approach is thoughtful and relationship-driven. i take the time to understand the people i’m working with so every session feels calm, natural, and genuinely reflective of who they are.

my philosophy & approach

my style blends documentary storytelling with timeless portraiture. that means i focus on capturing real moments as they naturally unfold, while also offering gentle guidance when it’s helpful.

i’m there to observe, anticipate, and document the in-between moments just as much as the big ones, the quiet glances, the laughter, the subtle connections that tell the full story. whether it’s a wedding day, a family session, or a senior milestone, my goal is always the same: to create images that feel genuine, meaningful, and true to you.

i approach every session with patience, intention, and respect for the experience you’re having, because how your photos are created matters just as much as how they look.

what i photograph

wedding photography

i photograph weddings throughout the hudson valley and upstate new york for couples who value connection, emotion, and authenticity. my role is to help you stay present on your wedding day while i document the moments you’ll want to remember for years to come.

family & portrait photography

family and portrait sessions are relaxed, thoughtful, and centered around real connection. i focus on capturing relationships as they are, playful, imperfect, and full of meaning, rather than forcing stiff or overly posed moments.

seniors

senior sessions are a celebration of who you are in this season of life. with gentle direction and space to move naturally, i create images that feel personal, confident, and true to you.

client experience

from our first conversation to final gallery delivery, i’m fully invested in every client and every experience.

photography should feel collaborative, unhurried, and reassuring, especially during meaningful life moments. many of my clients return year after year, trusting me to document weddings, growing families, and milestones along the way. that trust is something i don’t take lightly.

clear, timely communication is a priority for me. whether you're sending an inquiry, asking a question, or finalizing details, you can expect thoughtful responses and reliable follow-through.

when you work with me, you can count on careful planning, steady guidance, and a calm, supportive presence behind the camera.

kind words from my clients

"Adile went the extra mile when it came to our wedding. The photos she took were absolutely beautiful and preserved the moment in each frame. She is a one-woman-army!! Not only did she get amazing shots from every angle, she also brought a refreshing combination of warmth and professionalism. Additionally, with the amount of experience that she has - she coordinated the flow of the day and gave my husband and I a level of security and peace on our special day.

Thank you so much Adile! We appreciate everything you’ve done for us on our special day!!"

"I wish I could rate Adile 5,000 stars!! I couldn’t be happier with how my wedding photos turned out. From booking with Adile to the last minute of my wedding day she was always reliable, understanding, so kind, and most of all SO much fun!! She made me feel so confident and definitely relived some stress that day. I would 100% recommend her to take any kind of photos you may need."

- Jenna

"We are so happy that we chose Adile Jones Photography for our wedding on August 17, 2025, at Windham Manor — and we couldn’t be happier with the experience or the final photos!
Adile is incredibly creative, talented, and professional, while also being kind, fun, and so easy to work with. From our portraits to the beautifully captured candid moments during the cocktail hour and reception, every photo reflects each moment of our wedding day. We especially loved the mix of color and black-and-white images, which added so much depth and variety to our gallery.
