Days Away Creative

Days Away Creative is a Philadelphia-based wedding photography studio led by photographer Jared Wood, a New Jersey native who has built his practice around documenting authentic, unposed moments. Jared focuses on real and authentic documentary-style wedding photography, with a strong emphasis on downtown Philadelphia city weddings and a pre-wedding process that includes an in-depth couple interview and an in-studio photo reveal session. Jared has photographed over 400 weddings in and around Philadelphia and continued his training under nationally acclaimed wedding photographers Tyler Boye, Ben Adams, and Ben Hartley after relocating to the city. Based in Philadelphia, Jared regularly photographs weddings throughout the Philadelphia area, including venues such as The Merion, Lincoln Financial Field, Rivercrest Country Club, Pen Ryn Estate, and the Ballroom at Ellis Preserve, and occasionally travels outside the city. Reviewers consistently describe Jared as easy to work with and calm under pressure, noting that he guided couples through chaotic moments on the wedding day, made awkward-feeling subjects comfortable in front of the camera, and delivered photos that exceeded expectations; several couples also highlight the in-studio reveal experience as a standout part of the process.
