Creative Images Photography has been capturing beautiful memories since 1996, and we are looking forward to continuing in excellence for many years to come! It is the intimate relationships in our lives that truly make life worth living. Photography is so much more than art. As photographic artists we have the ability to capture the greatest emotions that occur in the world today. Creative Images specializes not only in weddings, but we also photograph families, children, corporate events, and sports teams. We know there are many facets to your life, and we enjoy being there to photograph all of them! We focus on capturing unique, artistic images of people as they are doing what they love.

Owners Paula Kopack and Aleen Raulfs share a common vision in providing a mixture of contemporary, photojournalistic, and traditional photography to each and every client. Both Paula and Aleen’s passions for photography started at early ages. Paula was inspired by her great uncle who documented all of the lives in her family and left them with a treasure of lifetime memories. “I wanted to follow in his footsteps to continue his legacy because I could see how much photographs meant to every family member. Each moment in time is a fading moment, but if I can capture it, it will be there forever!”. At age 12, Paula purchased a Polaroid camera, and she began a lifetime journey of photography which led to the creation of Creative Images Photography. (Don’t worry, the Polaroid is history!) Shortly after the start of the business, Aleen arrived on the scene and joined Creative Images as co-owner. Aleen grew up loving the numerous photographs of both of her grandfathers, and she spent countless hours looking at them. Looking at photographs was so impactive in her life that she decided this must be the path for her. Her passion for people led to wedding photography at age 16, and she purchased a Canon 35mm camera. (Don’t worry, the old 35mm is history!) “I have a passion for people. I love to photograph people as they are - their passions, emotions and their individual style. The photographs I take of family, friends and now clients are the memories of tomorrow”.

Another passion we share is for travel. We love the incredible opportunities we’ve had to photograph in so many wonderful and picturesque places around the world. We have been known to take more pictures on a week’s vacation than during a week in the office! And that’s a lot of pictures! We’ve also had the pleasure of photographing many destination weddings in Bermuda, Jamaica, and St. John, as well as New Jersey, Delaware, Virginia, and New York.

We thank you for taking the time to get to know us a little bit. We hope to get to know you and create precious memories for you that you will cherish forever!
