Charlie, Razz and Dave were and are the BEST ever behind the camera! They captured every special moment. From the minute we booked them as our vendor, they made our dreams come true. They are fun, flexible and talented, which is what you need in photographers and videographers. Not to mention George is great to work with, organized and very communicative. I cannot say enough nice things about them. The pictures we got back (within 2 days btw!!) already look stunning and I can’t wait to see all of them. Thank you Cassarino!!!! Can’t wait to use you for every special event in our lives! We HIGHLY recommend them to anyone looking to capture their special day. Thank you for giving us memories we will treasure forever.
"I cannot recommend [Charlie, Ed and Elmer they were professional, creative, and a joy to work with. Their attention to detail and ability to capture the perfect moment is unmatched. Whether it was candid shots or carefully posed portraits, every photo turned out stunning.
They made everyone feel at ease, which really showed in the natural, genuine expressions they captured. The turnaround time for the photos was impressive, and the quality exceeded all expectations.
If you're looking for someone who truly understands how to tell a story through their lens, [Cassarino Studios ] is the one to hire. I’ll cherish these photos forever."
We worked with Cassarino Studios for both our engagement photo shoot and our wedding. Cassarino Studios truly represents state of the art photography. Their photographers are among the elite. Our incredible impression started at our planning meetings in which they were professional, creative, and kind. George and his team found so many clever ways to integrate our own ideas with what works the most seamlessly, based on their experience. It was a blast to work with them. They made us feel special from the first meeting to the last photo of the wedding day!
During our engagement photo shoot, Jules and Razz were outstanding in all areas. We immediately felt comfortable around them, their shot ideas were innovative, and their time management maximized the number of portraits we could take. Their teamwork and collaboration meant that we had TONS (and I mean tons) of options to choose from for each shot. So many of the shots exceeded our expectations! Working on our Save-The-Date cards, Jules demonstrated creativity and immense patience and flexibility as we sent her revision after revision. She worked tireless until it came out just right!
We worked with Dominic, Razz, and Jules for our wedding day. At my parent's house, taking our "getting ready photos", again Razz impressed me with his outstanding creativity as he navigated lighting challenges and a "cozy-sized" home. Without a skilled, quick-thinking photographer like Razz, I would have not captured these memories. Taking our wedding portraits at our venue, Dominic, Razz, Jules, and our videographer Dave collaborated seamlessly for creative, beautiful, romantic, and candid portraits. Between the three of them, they truly captured every angle! They even successfully (and VERY patiently) navigated and directed an enormous amount of family members during family photos, including a giant shot with over 40 people. Their experience with both the venue (in our case, Westbury Manor), and the wedding process meant that they had insight to find all of the best photo locations During our reception, they captured every angle and moment because they seamlessly worked together with the DJ, Maitre D/venue staff, Videographer, and ourselves. The lighting in the photos is world-class. Between the three photographers, they each had a different strategy/angle for every moment. To me, this kind of collaboration and teamwork can only come the connection and relationship each of the photographers have with each other, and that is a testament to the culture George creates with his team.
Thanks to Cassarino, we have almost limitless wedding photos that are STUNNING, BEAUTIFUL, and COLORFUL. I have no idea how we are going to narrow it down for our album, but that is the best problem to have. They exceeded expectations in all areas. We will treasure these photos forever. Thank you George, Razz, Dominic, Jules, and the entire Cassarino Team! <3
We had Dominic and Razz for our wedding and they were amazing! We also did video with them and had Eric. We fell in love with cassarino's work after seeing them at a showcase and we did not regret one bit working with them. George was very friendly and always answered any questions I had. We received all of our photos and videos in a timely matter and I can't wait until we receive our albums and trailer! There are so many good photos it is so hard to pick!
The entire team from photographers and videographer were absolutely amazing and truly a pleasure to work with. We had our wedding recently on December 3rd and Razz and Dominic, our photographers were so much fun and professional throughout the entire day. The studio, George, was extremely responsive to calls and emails leading up to the wedding. Our wedding party agreed they were so easy to work with and we had the best time with them. We received some previews of our photos and were blown away. We cannot wait to see the rest of them. I highly recommend them.
When we had our engagement shoot back on May, my fiancé was so nervous. We get to the park and we meet Razz and let me tell you we had the BEST time ever! We were talking and joking like we had known each other for years. When I asked him if he will be shooting our wedding he told us to call the office and make sure. So the next day that’s exactly what I did. Our wedding was on 11/19 and both Razz and Victoria were amazing! We had such an amazing time with both of them! When they each said good night to us we were sad for them to leave cause we just had so much fun with them all night. I cannot wait to get our photos back and I cannot wait to have to do a photoshoot for something because Cassarinos will be my first and only call!
I honestly do not have enough great things to say about this company and staff. From the moment we met Razz at a wedding showcase, we knew this was the company we wanted to go with. George the owner has a heart of gold. He is always willing to help, answer any questions and shows that he really cares about his customers. Upon meeting George to set up our wedding date and contract, we immediately requested Razz, who also shot our engagement shoot. The photos were spectacular. Razz is nothing short of amazing. He is friendly, outgoing, personal and makes you feel as if you’ve known him your whole life! Our friends and family loved him as well. On our wedding day at the Chateau Briand on July 31st 2021, we had the “dream team”. Dominick, Razz, and Dave, the videographer. They all made us feel so comfortable and are truly so talented at what they do. Dominick was the main photographer. He was funny, professional, and is very talented at what he does. Dave was also very kind, professional and recorded every moment. We were so happy with how our trailer and full length video came out. They’ve been in the industry for a very long time, and truly know what they are doing. You’re in good hands with these guys. The photos taken were so stunning, it was actually difficult to pick the final shots for our wedding album because there were so many great shots to choose from. I truly cannot recommend this company enough. If you’re looking for photographers who are not only talented but also make you feel like family, you need to book with Cassarino Studios!
My husband and I cannot say enough amazing things about Cassarino Studios! We met them at a bridal show case at our hall, Jericho Terrace, back in January 2019 & we absolutely loved them from the beginning. Their work was phenomenal so we decided to go to Cassarino Studios & met with George, who was very professional & gave us every piece of information we needed while also being very kind & knowledgeable. After booking with them, George kept in contact with us through out the entire process & always made us a priority. He made sure to let us know what to expect & was always very kind. When it was time to do our engagement photo shoot, our photographer was Razz, who is super fun, extremely talented & makes you feel super comfortable with every picture he takes. He even showed us what our pictures were coming out like as we we’re going along. Our engagement photos came out absolutely breathtaking because of him! Razz even texted us a picture shortly after our shoot as a sneak peak. From then & there we knew we wanted him as one our of photographers & they made that happen. Fast forward to covid happening & us having to postpone from July 2020 to June 2021 we called George & he made our transition with changing our date so smooth and easy. We felt so relieved & excited that we were able to change our dates with no issues at all & still had our favorite photographer Razz! Leading up to our wedding George had our team personally call us to introduce themselves & told us everything to expect the day of as well as a timeline of how things would go. Razz also told us to send specific shots of pictures we loved and wanted to take which was so awesome! The day of our wedding, we had Razz and Alan as our photographers & Joe as our videographer. We could not be any more grateful for the team we had on our wedding day! Razz made my husband & our groomsmen feel so comfortable & our everyone absolutely loved his personality & how awesome he really was! He made sure to take every kind of shot that we wanted and he really nailed it! My photographer Alan was also so much fun & kept all of my bridesmaids laughing or smiling in every photo. He kept everyone entertained while also taking amazing photos of us all from beginning to end! Razz & Alan went above & beyond for all of our photos & made sure every picture was exactly what we envisioned. We even had another awesome photographer that was a part of our day shadowing Razz, his name was Cerel & he was such a pleasure to have! He was such a sweet & talented young man & my husband & I loved having him a part of our day, doing such a phenomenal job! Cerel went above & beyond to get photo perfect & had such a great personality. Our videographer Joe also did such a fantastic job making sure to capture every beautiful & memorable detail of our day! We loved having Joe a part of our day. Just 1 month after our wedding we received a call from George letting us know that they had all of our photos & they were emailed to both my husband & I and the amount of such beautiful and perfect photos was so overwhelmingly beautiful and perfect! We received a phone call from George this past weekend that our raw footage was ready & we ran right over to pick it up & we’re BLOWN AWAY by how beautiful our video has turned out and we watched the entire thing. Cassarino Studios works with you to provide you with dream photos and video. Thank you so much to Cassarino Studios for making our day special, you’re all amazing!! Xo
Cassarino studios is amazing. George the owner is a pleasure to deal with. He holds every client in the highest regard. He keeps in touch throughout the process letting you know what to expect and assure everything runs smoothly. They are worth every penny to have amazing photography and videography. The quality of their work is elite. You get what you pay for so if you're looking for high quality this is one of the best options around. We had Razz doing our engagement shoot. He enjoys his job, very personable and creative when it comes to his photography. On wedding day we had Charlie. I love pictures and had a extensive picture list. He went above and beyond and really exceeded my expectations. We had Joe as our vidrographer. He came up with such great ideas for our ceremony. He coordinated with our officiant to get the best vantage points. Everyone is such a joy to work with. They really have a passion for the job. They work with you to provide you with your dream photos and video. Thank you so much Cassarino and staff. You're all amazing.
Beyond professional, fair priced , always got back to you , good timing on getting things back. Absolutely made our wedding day on point and amazing , the pictures couldn’t be better. Thank you all!
We cannot say enough about Cassarino studios! We knew that they were the right fit from the first time seeing them in a wedding showcase at our venue! George is amazing with helping us accommodate our wants and needs for our wedding. We did an engagement shoot with them, and the pictures came out phenomenal! I recommend them 100%... you will not be disappointed!
Alan and Razz were the best! Kept my whole family laughing so there were no forced smiles! I'm dying to see all the finished photos!
Cassarino studios was recommended by my venue Westbury Manor. We met with Joe, the previous owner, and immediately booked our photography and videography for our wedding day on 5/18/19. We had a gorgeous engagement photo shoot taken at Little Bay Park. This was included in our package and the photos came out beautiful. On our wedding day we had Alan (main photographer) and Kitty (candid photographer) as well as Pete (videographer). I cannot say enough good things about this team. Alan is a genius and gave me all the shots I wanted and more! He gives 100% to achieve the perfect shot. He actually physically got on the ground to take a beautiful shot of my husband and I with the moon in the background. Kitty was awesome and so sweet, she took all the photos of the groomsmen as they were getting ready. Pete was fantastic and worked really well alongside the photographers. We had him stay a couple hours extra to capture the special surprise dance I had with my mom. We are so excited to see the video when it is done. Overall, Cassarino studios is amazing and made my wedding day a dream come true!
I cannot say enough good things about Razz. He is so approachable. He made us feel calm and at ease when taking photos. What could have been an uncomfortable and scary experience for us photo-shy folks ended up being extremely fun. His personality is so infectiously happy. He loves to get great shots and he encouraged us to be in the moment and have fun! The main photographer Nick was very funny and he got the ladies to laugh. By putting people at ease, I just know that they created amazing pictures and I am so excited to see the results!
Cassarino studios is a TEN star company! They were absolutely amazing! Every single person that we dealt with treated us with patience and as family! I can’t say enough great things about making our big day amazing! Razz, George, Vinny, Joe, Cathy, Jodi and Dave, every single one of these people we dealt with were the most amazing! I hope that any bride that sees this goes there because they will make your dreams come true!
I reached out to cassariano to get a quote. I explained to him I had a good deal in place but was looking to work with a smaller and more personal studio. He seemed nice so I confided in him and told him which photographer I had my arrangement with. He went behind my back and reached out to them and questioned why my deal with so good and ultimately sabotaged my deal. Extremely dishonest and sneaky!! I can only imagine what they would have pulled the day of my party if I hired them. I don't recommend them at all if you want a smooth headache free day.
From the moment we booked Cassarino Studios 2 years before our wedding, we were beyond thrilled. They are so personable, nice, and genuinely care about you and their work. George, Joseph, and Razz made us feel super comfortable in the office and tailored our package to our wants and needs. Our photographers were Razz and Dominick and our videographer was Joe. It's evident that these men are true professionals. Dominick had a real eye for the shot and Razz wasn't afraid to get up/down and dirty for the shot that we (and he!) wanted. Joe made sure to hunt down the guests we wanted to include in our video. Our guests loved them as well, which was very important to us as well. One guest, also a photographer, said to us "These guys are good. They know what they're doing." We can't wait for our photos and we look forward to the next event in which we need a photographer/videographer - Cassarino Studios all the way!
Just did our engagement shoot the other day and we had so much fun. Razz did the shoot and he is an amazing photographer and loves what he does. I was nervous at first but he made us feel so comfortable . I cant wait till my wedding day !!!😁😁
Choosing Cassarinos was one of the best choices I made for my wedding. From the very beginning I stressed how important finding the perfect wedding photographers meant to me . From my engagement pictures till the ver last shot Cassarinos took at my wedding on the 4th of July was fabulous. I highly recommend Domenick and Razz both are professional and patient and talented at their job! Book Cassarinos you won’t regret it!
My husband and I are so happy that we chose Cassarino photography and videography for our wedding. They were amazing and the pictures and video came out beautiful! The photographers made sure that we were on schedule the whole time and helped make the day run smoothly. I would definitely recommend their services.
My husband and I are beyond happy with our selection of photographers! We worked with Razz, and Dominic for our photos, and we were so pleased with how everything came out! They were such a fun part of our Wedding Day! Such beautiful memories to have forever. George is also amazing and so helpful with everything! If we could do it all over again, we wouldn't change a thing!
Thank you Razz, Nick, & Dave for making our wedding day so special. The pictures is what last forever and even in the rain, you made it happen. You took so many beautiful pictures that I wanted and more. Razz you made me day by allowing us to go to Gerry park by the lake so that we could get a picture even though it was raining still. You and your staff are wonderful to work with and we look forward to getting our album/pics. I highly recommend your company because of your true passion in photography, which clearly shows and all of you are so kind to deal with. Thanks again, grazie mille- Daniella& Matthew Biscardi
I absolutely love Cassarino Studios and I highly recommend them to Everyone. The photos are timeless and classic beauties that we can remember our special day forever. They provide the highest level of service have such a strong desire to please. A+ photography studio!
Horrible! Wish we would have picked a different photographer. They are nice an provide great customer relations in the beginning, but once the wedding is done with...good luck! The website to view your photos after the fact - never works and always has issues loading an freezes! Although they do give a number to contact if you have issues with the website...but of course nobody ever answers nor can you leave a message. So we try a get help or advise through Cassarino themselves....Hahah they don't return phone calls or emails! Beyond furious....stay away at all costs! And as for the video they just hand it to you an expect you to know exactly what they want in reference to your editing preferences! So you call to try an get input and they talk to you like your stupid. One fed up bride!!!!!
Will not recommend this company. My sister and brother in law hired them for their wedding in august 2014 spent a LOT of money on the picture and video package. When they received the unedited video the taping was only the beginning of the party meaning they didn't include or cut out the surprise dance and the cake cutting also another traditional performs that was done! how is this possible ?! when we called the office to complain they said they will have their boss call us back which he NEVER did. after many calls they supposedly added the ending of the party but it was the same exact video! very unprofessional. The reason they were hired was to capture the memories! will not recommend or book again and until this day we have not heard back from Mr Big Razz.
Cassarino Studios was perfect and easy to work through the entire process. Little Razz did our engagement shoot and he was great! We had so much fun working with him and the pictures came out amazing! For the wedding we had Nick and Little Razz (when we found out we had Little Razz again we were so excited!) as the photographers and Jim was our videographer. The 3 of them were professional and made the entire day a breeze. We can't wait to see our wedding pictures and video. Thank you!
We had a great experience with Cassarino Studios on the day of our wedding. They showed up on time and were fantastic all day. my husband is not big into photos but Razz and little Razz made him feel very comfortable on the day. They did not over load him with pics but yet still got some beautiful pics. The reason I give four stars to Quality and not five is because we have not got our proofs back yet so can't say for sure but we did get a little sneek peek on facebook and they look great. I highly recommend Cassarino Studios.
I can't say enough about Cassarino Studios. From the beginning they were so helpful. Cathy was my event manager and she is so helpful and calmed my nerves on my crazy days. She answered any and every question i had and believe me I had about a thousand questions. Dominic was my photographer and it was a match made in heaven. He called me a couple of days before the wedding to talk about my do's and don'ts and photos I will want for my special day. He even went with us to visit my grandma who was in the hospital and take photos with her. He went above and beyond that day. I would recommend Cassarino Studios to anyone looking for the perfect photographer.
The videographer was very friendly he did an amazing job.
I had Dominick for my wedding photographer and he was wonderful. He took great shots and I can't wait to see how the pictures came out. He knew how to get the shots and when and was very direct. Loved it and was a great experience.
My family had used Cassarina Photography before so I naturally decided to use them when I got married. The photographer that we had used was unavailable for our wedding day, so I was given a different photographer to take the pictures. Although the pictures are gorgeous, I was a little dissapointed that a few pictures that I would hope to have were never taken. For example, me with my mom. Overall though I was happy.
This was is the second time we used Cassarino Studios. The first time was for my daughter 's wedding, and then we used them for my son's wedding. For my daughter's wedding, I shopped and compared five photography studios in the Long Island area. some were recommended by the catering hall and some I found through personal recommendations. Points that were important to us were excellent pictures and album design. We wanted the albums to tell a story of the wedding and the day. Secondly, we wanted to work with a studio who really cared and were professional And thirdly we wanted a good value. By the time we got to choosing a photographer we were so tired of being sold and upsold and promised.
Straight from the time Kathy answered the first phone call to the wedding day with Ivan, to Little Raz designing the album the bride was treated like a princess and I was treated like the queen mother. The album was done on a timely basis and was beautiful.
When it came time for my son to get married, I suggested to my daughter in law to use Cassarino. She very politely said she didn't want the same wedding as her sister in law. (Very understandable). so we went to other photographers in the area. After being sold and told this and that are extra I asked before she made a decision to just stop by and talk to Cassarino. This time was even better than the first. The package was a even better value. This time Big Raz and Dominic were the photographers. They came to the hotel to capture the pre wedding moments. Big Raz stayed with the groom and Dominic stayed with the bride.. When we got to the hall they continued working without stopping until the end of the wedding.
The proofs came quickly. The hardest part was picking out which perfect pictures to use for the album. Now Little Raz stepped in and came o the rescue. With patience of a saint he spent hours upon hours with the kids putting together the perfect heartfelt album. If you want to smile and shed a tear when you open you wedding album in years to come make Cassarino your photographers.
I'm giving 4 stars because I haven't seen proofs yet. But our photographer Dominic was great. His sole purpose was to get the shots that I wanted. I was able to email specific pictures I wanted before hand, and he had them all in mind the day of the wedding. He was quick and to the point. Can't wait to see the finished results!
We put together a nice package with Cathy. We had a photographer, photojournalist, and videographer. They were all so nice. THey were familiar with the venue, so we were able to take great shots. I didn't get my proofs yet though- so I'm waiting on that!
Walked into Cassarino studios not knowing anything about what I wanted.. and it turned out my Maid of Honor knew the photographer because she played soccer with him. He was so helpful and didnt try to sell me things I didnt want in my picture package. He came to my house earlier and hung out with me and my family and took the most amazing photos of the wedding. He knew all the best shots.. and I am so pleased with him and his photos..
I used them for my wedding and had Raz as my photographer. He was punctual (even a little early) and very relaxed, which helped to make me that way too. He took all of the "must take" photos that I asked him too and was great with my large bridal party as well! I am yet to see my wedding proofs, but based on my engagement pictures, I am positive they will turn out great! Great service - was such an easy vendor to work with.
Dominick took the most unique and beautiful pictures! He followed our limited timeline for photos and kept everyone moving. Big Razz was so helpful through the entire process!!
I would highly recommend Cassarino...they were easy to work with and their pictures are beautiful! Their staff is fantastic!
everybody at cassarino studios was amazing, so helpful and nice. The day of my wedding, the photographer and videographer couldn't be nicer and took so many amazing pictures. I was thrilled with my choice to use them.
Raz was always there to help us. His product is amazing and you will not be disappointed. Raz was not like your typical photographer who is in your way and very annoying. Raz was vvery professional and he listened to our requests and he made my wedding day go by smoothly.
Wasnt too crazy about the engagement shoot. The photographer wasnt personal enough to notice my bra strap was showing in 90% of the photos.
The photographer for the wedding was great. My guests loved him. He was able to get everybody to smile.
When my sister was married years ago, she used Cassarino. I think it may have had different owners then. I loved the way her pictures came, so we decided to use them for our wedding. They even were able to get us the same photographer that my sister used. You would think with so many years of experience, the photographer would take great pictures. Well, with all that was going on that day, I did not realize that he never took a picture as I was getting dressed with my mom. I assumed he would have taken the picture, but it just was not there in the proofs. Also, some of the pictures were uninspired. They did a good overall job, but I was somewhat disappointed with the overall service. I guess I just expected more, since I loved the job that they did for my sisters wedding.
They havent been aroung for years for nothing! Great Job. We had Nick and he was great. Creative, not to pushy and just had great experoence with kids, weather and all the things you cant control!
ANYTHING YOU WANT YOU GOT...from the time leading up to the wedding to the wedding day. Any shot u wanted..total creativeness on their part with certain shots. With you for hoursssss following you around not missing a single moment. Completely well worth the money and the photographers are sweethearts. Well Recommended!
We used Cassrino for our photographer and we are happy with all of our pictures. They were very reasonable and willing to work out a package tailored to our needs. The photographer (Nick) was really funny and made everyone feel comfortable. Razz and the rest of the staff have been very helpful. The only downfall is that you have to wait a year for your album, your cd of pictures to print, and all of your enlarged portraits!!
They did an amazing job. They were on time stayed late and captured every moment. My photographer was Florin. He was fun and knew how to make this day special. He really knew how to work with the children. I got my proofs back within 4 weeks and they came out amazing. Over 1500 photos. I would suggest that all brides visit cassorino studios.
He was nice and understanding. He took many many photos and used the location to its full potential
He was funny and took great pictures. most of my pictures were so good it was hard to choose.;They took extra pictures at my reception that i did use and it took us away from the reception.
He took beautiful pictures.;He had an attitude with everyone at the wedding. He was sarcastic and bossy.
She was very easy to work with, made everyone feel very comfortable and kept the mood light - worked well with children and adults alike
We chose to do our pictures before the ceremony which was great because he didnt have to pull us away from our guest at all.
They quickly respond to your concerns and they try to make up for their mistakes;The first time I got married the photographer was excellent. The second time the photographer was really nice but not as skillful. The pictures were OK.
I loved that he took oveer 1200 pictures. He was really funny and made the day more enjoyable for us and for our families.;He took up a lot of our time taking pictures. Not a bad thing, but I wish I would have realized how much time passed because we really didn't get to enjoy the cocktail hour or the reception.
He was fantastic!! Loved working with him!! Put the entire wedding party at ease!!!;He actually photographed my best friends wedding after she loved him at mine!!
