Baiada Photography

We truly can't imagine getting married without Tony Baiada and his camera by our side. Tony was like having a member of our family with us while he was beautifully captured our day. He's the BEST, hire Baiada Photography today!!

Tony and Sal captured our wedding at the Ballroom at Ellis preserve and did an AMAZING job. They were professional and kind throughout the entire process. They took incredible photos that we will cherish forever. I highly recommend this team to capture your big day, you won’t regret it!

The best way I can describe Sal and his team is that they became part of our family by the end of our wedding. Sal captured the most incredible moments. From our engagement photoshoot to the wedding day he was nothing but attentive, made great suggestions and he was just fun to be around. I could not have imagined our big day without Sal there to capture everything. Choosing Baiada Photography will be one of the best decisions that you make.

Simply put - Sal and Jeff captured every perfect moment of our wedding day. While looking through my photographs, it felt like I was re-living the entire experience, not just through my eyes but through every guest that was there. The moments he captured were so pure, and genuine, you could FEEL everyone's joy. The day of was so fun walking around Society Hill with Sal and Jeff - they'd find a weeping willow, a garden, a brick wall, stairs, all different places for us to take pictures - and each setting turned out amazing. They made everyone feel very comfortable being photographed - even through the always awkward pretend your laughing bridal party photos. I would highly highly recommend Baiada Photography for any special event!

Tony & Sal were our photographer team and were spectacular. It is important to remember how much time you spend with the photographers on this most important day! So it is not only the photos that matter, but who is taking them! Tony took time to get to know our story and who our important loved ones were. He listens. The day of, I hardly noticed him and when reviewing the photos, he captured everything in ways beyond what I could have even asked for. It is like he knew exactly what I wanted. Highly recommend!!!

Tony and Sal are amazing! They shot our wedding day so beautifully! We just got the photos back last week, and I don't think I've gotten anything done since! I keep looking through them - they're gorgeous! They captured such beautiful moments. They are so professional, and make you feel so comfortable the entire day! I did not worry about a thing, I trusted that they knew the perfect places to get beautiful shots. And they definitely did. What I also loved about Baiada - we got our photos back so quickly! We got home from our honeymoon less than 2 weeks after our wedding, and I got an email from Tony that our photos were ready! Such a great way to come home from the honeymoon! I highly recommend working with Baiada!

Tony and Sal perfectly captured our wedding day and they are both consummate professionals. From the moment we met with them about a year before our wedding, we knew we had found our photographers - they were warm, friendly and full of great ideas on how to photograph the bridal party and our wedding venue (Ballroom at the Ben). I would recommend them to any couple in a heartbeat. My wife and I were married on a COLD day in December 2017. Both Tony and Sal were not only incredibly efficient in getting us in and out of our heated trolley, but also super innovative in terms of getting creative and fun shots in a quick manner. The bridal party was incredibly grateful for their thoughtfulness given the temperature. If you're looking for a great photographer at a more than competitive price, look no further.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Baiada Photography. Tony was my wedding day photographer and he was fantastic. His personality is wonderful and he put me right at ease. Tony goes to any length to get a shot. My husband and my family loved Baiada team! During my reception, the team was so stealth. They weren’t in anyone’s way. In fact, my guests hardly noticed the photographers. Thank you Tony! Thank you Baiada! I will cherish my pictures forever.

Tony & Sal were simply incredible! Throughout our entire wedding planning process, they were completely on the same page as us, and they never once turned down an idea or a vision that we had for our pictures. They came to New York for our engagement pictures, which was so much fun! They came into the city early to scope out the area and used their expertise to situate us throughout the parks and streets to get the most beautiful photos. We really appreciated their dedication. Leading up to our wedding day, we spoke to Tony a few times and he guided through everything we needed for our Center City wedding. We took pictures around town that day, and he helped us coordinate our park permits, timeline, and trolley arrangement. This was beyond helpful! He knew great spots to go for the pictures, and since we were lucky with beautiful weather, we were able to be outside. We had a huge bridal party (over 30 people to take pictures around town) and they knew exactly where to take us to fit everyone into the most perfect shots. On the day of the wedding, Tony & Sal were flawless. They arrived early to the hotel where we were getting ready to take pictures of the bridal party - and these pictures are amazing. We love them! Throughout the entire day, as mentioned they coordinated our timeline and activity, and had us back to the venue in time for the ceremony. They got the best pictures, and we have received a ton of feedback from wedding guests that the photographers were completely non-invasive and you didn't even know they were there! While on our honeymoon, Tony shared a sneak peak slideshow with us (and our parents!) that he prepared with highlights and music (he even used our first dance song) - it was incredible and so exciting! In less than 3 weeks after the wedding, we already received all of the pictures for review. We had the best time working with Tony & Sal and would highlight recommend Baiada photography for all events. We will miss working with Tony & Sal - but can't wait to make our albums!! You will not regret working with Baiada for your wedding! We cannot thank Tony & Sal enough for their dedication and guidance throughout the last year of planning.

If you got to this review, then stop looking for a wedding photographer. Tony is your man. He did an absolutely AMAZING job from start to finish. Tony and Sal first met us and we did our engagement shoot in various parts of Philadelphia. We were, of course, obsessed with our engagement photos so we couldn't wait for our wedding. At our wedding, Tony and Stan blew us away. I mean, Tony was literally on the ground taking photos to make sure he got the perfect shot. He knew EXACTLY where to get the best photos in Philly and we could not be more happy with the way they came out. He also worked quickly to make sure we had our photos by the time we got back from our honeymoon. When I dreamed of what my wedding photos would look like, I never imagined that Baiada could surpass my dreams, but they did. I HIGHLY recommend them- Tony's professionalism is something I've never seen before. He knew all our family members by name, including our dog, who he welcomed into our photos on our wedding day too. Seriously, Baiada is the best.

No sure why our negative review was taken down. We were very unhappy with our wedding photos from Baida. I have to say tony did a great job for my sisters wedding but his son Sal and some other photographer came for our wedding day and to say we were disappointed is an understatement. We made one request beforehand to take pictures of our nieces and nephews and Sal didn't get any at all. THe worst insult was we had emailed tony after to get some feedback and he totally ignored our emails until we put a bad review after not hearing from him for weeks. I actually forgot about how mad we were about the job they did until my cousin sent us some pictures he had taken. In it he has pictures of the other photograoher actually behind us at our big entrance (hence the lack of any good pictures when we entered the reception. Another picture where he is actually sitting by the firepits instead of working. For over 5 grand, you can find more professional photographers.

Tony and Sal were beyond amazing leading up to, during, and after the wedding. I was SO anxious about having my photograph taken, and Tony was extremely reassuring leading up to the day. He was also very aware of my comfort level during the wedding day, and my groom absolutely raved about Sal and his professionalism. Both Tony and Sal took the most GORGEOUS photos, and you barely knew they were there. Then, they were so quick getting the photos and even sneak peeks to me! Lastly, they created a video that still makes me cry every time I watch. It truly captures all of the emotion of the day, and I can never repay them for their expertise, kindness, and amazing work. We love Baiada Photography, and I cannot recommend them enough!

I honestly do not have enough good things to say about Tony and Sal. They honestly love what they do, love the people they work with and make the entire process so seamless and exciting. To begin, before they make you sign a contract they meet you in person. They review their coverage options, show you their work and most importantly they get to know you and your fiancé. The time they spent with my husband and I before we even had a contract displayed just how much they genuinely care for the people they work with. Then, once you’re on board, they make you feel like you are the only wedding they are preparing for - there was never a time that I had to remind them who I was when I called or the date I was getting married, they always answered the phone as if we were great friends. They were also beyond flexible. My husband and I were married at the Masonic Temple in Philadelphia. This is one amazing historic venue, but there were numerous photography requirements. I remember reaching out to Tony and Sal to remind them of the requirements a few weeks before the wedding when they notified me they already had a walk-thru scheduled to discuss the requirements and go over the lighting with the staff at the building. This was so incredibly amazing and beyond my expectations. And to top it off, Sal emailed my husband and me a beautiful photo of the Temple the day he was doing the walk-thru. Honestly, every step of the photography process for my wedding was perfect because of Tony and Sal. They were always up-to-date with the wedding planning; they were so incredibly quick to produce our photos (I mean they were done when we were still on our honeymoon!) as well as our album. And of course their work is beyond beautiful. I cannot say enough great things about these two, if you are in the market for a photographer for any event, I would definitely recommend them!

Tony and Sal Baiada are absolutely incredible! My now husband found their information from a preferred list of vendors through our venue (Ballroom at the Ben) and was interested because they seemed to capture the most beautiful candid moments. From the moment we met them at their Drexel Hill studio we felt like family. Every step of the planning process went smoothly, and we absolutely loved our meeting the week before the wedding where Tony really got to know who was most important to us and what we were looking to capture. On the day of the wedding they put us at ease by taking complete control of giving our limo drivers directions, giving the bridal party direction, and knowing almost our entire family by name. The slideshow we received after the wedding was beautiful. Little did we know the photographs we would receive after the fact would be even that much better. Our favorite shots are those where we didn't even know there was a picture being taken. This is their specialty! These candid shots are absolutely stunning and look like they belong in Vogue. We could not imagine our day without Tony and Sal!

Sal & Stan from Baiada Photography were the best! They were professional, fun, and never missed a beat. They really wanted to capture 'the moments' and made sure that the day wasn't spent in front of people taking pictures or asking us to stop and pose, which is exactly what we wanted. We got caught in traffic and Sal & Stan managed to squeeze 2 hours worht of pictures into 20 minutes and they came out beautifully! Thank you!!

The Baiada's are wonderful photographers! They made everything very easy for us and were extremely accommodating. Their work is truly a step above the rest. It was so much fun having them at our wedding and we would recommend them to anyone.

Tony and his team are amazing. We just got our proofs back and are so happy with all the pictures they got not only of the two of us but of our friends and family as well. Tony was with me all day. He is calm, patient, professional and absolute pleasure to work with. We also received our proofs shortly after returning which was wonderful.

Awesome pictures, amazing photographers. The best in town!

Tony and Sal were amazing! The day of our wedding both Sal and Stan arrived to the hotel on time, very professional, had great ideas for outdoor photos around philly. At the venue, they took the "required" pics, and then they were there snapping away without me even knowing it!! Very nice people who are extremely talented!!!

He was not intrusive in anyway. He was relaxed and extremely professional!

I loved that he uses film! He is one of the only photographers in philly that is not digital - by choice. He did a year of digital as a test and went back to film b/c the quality is so much better!

Amazing style, never in your face or disruptive. Took gorgous pictures.

never knew they were there, used 2 photographers so most of the event was captured

Where do I start?! We selected Tony and Baiada Photography because my wedding planner gave me a list of the four best in Philly, and said pick the one you get along with the best, they all do a fabulous job. He said if you don't like your photographer, you'll look angry in your pictures. So, that advice led us to Tony. And we couldn't have been more pleased! Tony is friendly and super talented. We had him and two other photographers from his company for the day of the wedding. After the formal pictures, I have to say I worried that they were missing a lot of pictures because I never saw them. Man was I wrong! They were everywhere, but completely discreet. I don't know how Tony got some of the shots he did! There is one picture of me right after my dresser zipped my dress for the first time, and my mom and sister are in the background both tearing up. There were a lot of other people in the room at that time, and Tony managed only to get us three. It is such a moving shot! That is just one example of hundreds. My wedding album never fails to make me cry. The pictures show so much emotion! Tony truly captured them all. He lets you keep your 3x5 proofs, and even puts them in albums for you. You can also keep your negatives with a $200 donation to the charity of your choice. I have heard horror stories of photographers asking people to repeat things, or take their time so they can get set up. There was none of that. The process after the wedding was wond;I don't have one negative thing to say. They were great!!!
