About this vendor
I am a NJ Wedding Photographer specializing in contemporary wedding photography. My approach to the day is very photo-journalistic with a blend of fine art imagery. I find by keeping a laid back attitude, my couples remain stress free and just enjoy the day. I feel that wedding photography should revolve around the wedding day and not the other way around. As a wedding photographer in New Jersey, I thrive on creating epic photos out of ordinary scenes. Even more, I love the reactions I get out of my couples when they see the results.
All of the images you see here are real weddings, no styled photo shoots or models.

Delgado Studios was absolutely amazing to work with for our engagement photoshoot and our wedding day! Joe and his team captured every special moment beautifully, with stunning attention to detail and creativity. From getting ready, to the final photos of the night, their professionalism and friendliness made the entire process seamless. The photos exceeded all of our expectations and will be cherished forever. The turn around time for sneak peak photos and the full online photo gallery was quick too. Joe answered every email in a timely manner and catered to all of our needs. We highly recommend Joe Delgado and his team to anyone looking for breathtaking photography and a wonderful experience!
Joseph is the best photographer that I worked with. Throughout the photo shooting process, he gave a lot of good advice to get the best scene. He is also very creative as an artist. Most importantly he filmed very impressive photos for us like movie scenes and it will be a memorable experience in our life.
After extensive research we decided to book Joseph at Delgado Studios to shoot our wedding and boy did we make the right choice. Very easy to work with…calls, texts and emails were handled in a timely fashion. Super cool personality made the shoots fun. Very professional and on top of everything he takes amazing photos. Let me save you some time, If you need a photographer for your wedding or any occasion call Joseph at Delgado Studios, I promise you won’t regret it.

We are so blessed to have found Delgado studios for our wedding! Joe and his team are so incredibly professional, kind and amazing! Every single photo is incredible! We cannot recommend them enough for making our day so fantastic and for giving us the most beautiful memories!
We had such an amazing experience with Delgado Studios. My husband and I hired him to be our engagement and wedding photographer and he is worth every penny. Joseph and his team were attentive, easy to work with and professional. He was very organized and respectful throughout the entire process. On the wedding day they provided everything we needed and more. Joseph has an amazing eye for detail. The quality and creativity of the photos are outstanding. Every shot is authentic and dynamic. We highly recommend Delgado Studios for all of your professional photographer needs!
Joe and his team worked diligently on our wedding day to ensure all the photos we wanted taken were done. They were on time and kept the day flowing. Joe did our engagement photos as well and they came out beautiful. We cannot wait to see how our wedding pictures come out. All of our pictures were natural and felt real. This is exactly what we wanted.
Joe is very professional and courteous! Fast turnaround and incredible work! He listens to the clients and pays close attention to tiny details. We are beyond grateful and happy that we chose Delgado Studios!
Joe and his team were absolutely incredible! They were super easy to communicate with throughout the entire planning process. They were also very understanding, respectful, and helpful during a medical emergency that happened during pictures. My husband and I (and the rest of our family) could not be more thrilled that we selected Delgado studios for our wedding photos!
So I actually decided that Joe was going to be my wedding photographer before I was even engaged - LOL! He'd been the photographer for my best friend's wedding, back in 2015, so, when I got engaged in 2017, he was one of the first vendors I'd contacted. His professionalism and thoughtfulness played a huge role in making myself and my husband feel comfortable in front of the camera (not to mention he's just a really nice, funny, personable guy). And - of course - the most important part - he's a crazy-talented photographer. All of the photos we've seen from him have been stunning - he and his team (I'd be remiss not to shout them out because they are fantastic) truly know how to make any environment, person, mood, etc look flawless. I wish I could afford to have Joe follow us around everywhere, that's how wonderfully he captures every different type of moment and emotion. Joe is worth EVERY penny! Thank you so much!
Choose Joe. You will not regret your decision. We just got back our photos and while looking through them, it was like falling in love all over again. You got to relive the day through the photos. It felt so completely natural and the photos showed all the love, joy and excitement of the day. The photos were warm, vivid, cinematic and breathtaking. We wanted a photographer that would provide us with all the different styles of capturing a moment. We got that and more with Joe. He uses every element provided to him even ones that might be overlooked. At one point during our wedding photos, we were faced with the dilemma of crossing over a slightly flooded area. My husband suggested the he carry me over the massive puddle. Joe, without missing a beat, captured the moment and in the process, took the best photo of the day. Not only does Joe take amazing photos , but also, he makes you feel comfortable with being in front of a lens. He’s got a great sense of humor and eases you into taking the most incredible photos of your life. You won’t feel posed with a fake smile plastered on your face. If you want a jack of all trades, who loves what he does, and will deliver, then choose Joe. Cheers.
My husband and I met with a few photographers before finding Joe. Our friends used Joe as their photographer for their wedding and the pictures were outstanding. When we met with him he invited us to his house, which he made us feel so welcomed. We had such a great experience talking with him. Joe and his team are truly the best of the best.
Joseph Delgado’s photography is pure excellence. His work is stunning and he has a true artist’s eye for capturing important moments. He and his assistants exemplify professionalism through and through and are easy to work with, fun, and inspired.
Joseph kept the entire process streamlined from start to finish. He was on time, consistent with communication and got our photos to us in a timely and efficient manner.
I highly recommend Delgado studios to anyone looking to capture their special event with a professional and a genuinely nice guy!
I cannot express how much my husband & I absolutely loved working with Joe and his team to make our wedding day special!
We used Joe for our engagement pictures and wedding day, he has such a great eye and can look at the scenery and capture such beautiful pictures.
Joe really cares about about each picture he takes to make sure, not only is it perfect, but it captures the natural light delivering a picture that is just breath taking!
Not only is he professional, but he is also very funny and down to earth making the whole expierence very entertaining and we felt very relaxed with him!
We would highly recommend Joseph Delgado for your engagement pictures, wedding day or any other event!
I honestly can’t say enough nice things about working with Joe and how please I was with his services. I think his strongest quality is evident by simply looking at his beautiful images. His ability to use lighting to make his pictures stand out above the rest is undeniable. This factor alone is what attracted me to his work in the first place. I looked through the photographs of many other photographers and most looked washed out, as though they were filtered for instagram (great for making every day pictures look better but not for your wedding pictures!). His ability to come up with creative shots is also outstanding and also easily evident by peaking through his work. He says that he won’t finish a wedding day unless he got a real “wow shot”. He also takes the time to get to know you and your significant other so that he can bring that out in his pictures. He is very upfront on what is realistic in your requests and if he thinks something won’t work (ideas, timing, ect.). Lastly, Joe was by far my easiest vendor to work with! He is very personable, organized, easy to contact, responsive, and truly listens to you. It is hard to find a personalized photographer that is not just there because it is ‘a job’. Joe and his team will make your experience truly special. I think it speaks volumes that I have already recommended the Delgado Studios team to some of my own friends and family! I am confident they won’t let you down!
Amazing. Creative photographs and great direction for how to pose. His staff was fantastic and he was hilarious which helped ease wedding day nerves. If you want stunning photos he is your man.
The most important vendor to be booked is your photographer! I didn't even know where to begin when it came to looking for a photographer. I went on wedding wire and also posted on Facebook for recommendations. My sister previously used Joseph for my nephew's First birthday family shoot. Looking at his photos it made me want to explore his weddings. I immediately became intrigued and genuinely impressed with his play on lighting! It's not photoshopped! I didn't believe it but he took the time to explain his process and how he goes about creating and capturing those moments and lighting that originally captivated my husband and I. Aside from his pure talent - he was unbelievably professional and responded with in moments sometimes even on weekends unless he was working an event.
He is truly passionate about what he does - and his proof is in his work! It speaks for itself! He is truly a talented photography genius. He is honest, easy going, makes you feel super comfortable effortlessly! Jospeh was able to capture every moment, emotion, and every detail.
If you are working on a budget he has packages for all budgets and the pictures he captures will last a life time!
I already told Joseph he will be booked for our future baby showers, family shoots, first birthdays, etc.
He is also very punctual he was actually early for my wedding by almost 20 minutes which I truly appreciated and he was able to put me at ease!
Joseph and his team were such a great pleasure to work with! He is so professional, fun and creative with his photography! Joseph shot our engagement and wedding photos- we were beyond happy with the out come of both and so extremely pleased with how he captured our special day! I love every photo he shot. I will continue to recommend him to anyone!
Joe photographed our November 2016 wedding, and we couldn't be happier! We were referred to Joe by my cousin and her husband, whose wedding Joe photographed a few years earlier. We were so impressed by his work that he was the very first vendor contact we made after booking our venue. From the start Joe was a complete pleasure to work with - friendly, accommodating, professional, and a source of great wedding day advice! My husband and I were at ease the entire time because we knew Joe would do a fantastic job, capturing all of the best moments. We truly appreciate his creativity, close attention to detail, sense of humor, and patience, because let's face it - wrangling family members and bridal party members together for pictures is no easy feat! We had the best time working with him as well as Matt and Meredith, the second photographer and assistant, who worked with Joe on our wedding. It's difficult for us to put into words how much we truly appreciate Joe and our BEAUTIFUL wedding photos. We just can't say enough about him. My husband and I HIGHLY recommend Joseph Delgado Photography!
We booked Joseph for our wedding & engagement shoot and have been incredibly happy with both! We've gotten SO many compliments for his work and he does an amazing job taking both documentary style and traditional photos. He's easy-going, responds to emails very quickly, happy to answer any questions you might have, and really just fun to work with. He's a funny guy where you feel like he's a friend taking your pictures, but is also extremely professional.
As for our actual wedding a couple days ago, Joe and his team exceeded our expectations by miles. We had a second shooter, Matt Guidon and their assistant, Meredith were also beyond amazing. Joe and his team were incredibly efficient rounding up our many family members for portraits. We were actually ahead of time the whole day because they were so efficient in getting shots that we needed, that we actually made it to our cocktail hour!! As we saw some of the preview shots of the wedding as quickly as 3 days later, we couldn't be happier and grateful for having Joe as our photographer. He captured our day so beautifully, not to mention, fun to work with!! With a long day like that, it helps to laugh with your photographers!! I HIGHLY recommend JDP for anyone's wedding :)
I feel very fortunate to have Joseph Delgado photograph my backyard wedding. Everything was perfect from when I first spoke with him to book the photo shoot til the very last picture he took. He is very professional, super down to earth, easy to talk to, and an all around great guy. He is very easy to work with and takes amazing pictures. He was able to expertly capture all of our photography requests. Anyone who books him will not be disappointed. He is worth every penny!!
We met Joseph and he was so down to earth. We knew he was our photographer. He photographed our amazing engagement shoot at Liberty State Park. The pictures came out amazing! Then, the day of our wedding, he captured such wonderful shots! We've only seen a teaser amount of shots, and we're still blown away! Joseph and his team are so hospitable, and know what they are doing. Quick, and efficient as well! Thank you so much for capturing such great, and amazing quality shots, that are seriously breath taking. You really have a great eye, and know how to capture the best photos possible!
When we first found Joe's website, we were impressed. His ability to capture and document all those images that you'd want when getting married- from the bride putting on her dress to dancing at the reception with friends and family, his work was among the best we had seen. But it was really Joe's fun, laid back attitude that really sold us. He's the kind of guy that could fit-in at any wedding. I was going to wait to write the review after viewing all the photos but realized it wasn't even necessary. I loved the engagement photos and the sneak peak we've seen thus far from the wedding. He made the engagement session so much fun. He was SO responsive with emails and any questions we had. He was also very open to our suggestions and was willing to try anything. When the big day finally came, it felt like he was an old friend. He was so great working with our friends and family - getting all the shots we wanted in a timely manner. To have someone who's company you genuinely enjoy by your side on one of the most important days of your life was awesome. He is funny and full of energy and when we saw the images he had gotten on our wedding day, we were just blown away. He's definitely at the top of his game and choosing him as your photographer would be a choice you won't regret!
I can not say enough great things about Joseph and his team! From the second we met him we knew he was the best photographer for us we didn't even need to think about it. We started off with our engagement session. Joseph made it so comfortable and easy for us. We had so much fun with him that day. We were blown away when we received our photos they were amazing! Then our wedding day came and we knew we were in good hands. Joseph and him team were so amazing professional and personable! The number one reason we chose Joseph was because we wanted something different and unique we knew he could give that to us. Our whole time with Joseph was seamless and stress free. We just received our photos and they are move than We could have imagined. They are just beautiful, unique and totally us! We also loved how quick we received everything and how easy it is to get in touch with Joseph! We will be using him in the future for other events for sure! Amazing amazing amazing!!!!!
I hesitate to review Joseph because frankly, I don't think I can do him justice.
When my [now] husband and I were looking for a photographer, we decided early on candid photographs were a must. As a result, we scrutinized every photographers portfolio to see their skill around that specific requirement. Joseph was the only photographer we found who clearly not only understands the fundamentals of photography (framing, lighting, alternating lenses, depth of field, composition, portraits, perspective etc.) but can recognize candid photo opportunities. Meaning, he is also able to read people and moments and emotions and captures the motion happening. When we looked at his portfolio, we immediately noticed they had movement and life. The emotion seeped through. Despite us not knowing any of his subjects, as a viewer I was drawn in. The brides sparkle in her eyes was firey, the grooms love radiated through, the guests faces emanated the joy of the occasion- it felt like we were there and like we knew these people... because of a photograph!
Needless to say, Joseph exceeded our (very high!) expectations on our rainy wedding day. The photos he shot are truly exceptional. While reviewing them, I feel like I'm drawn right back into the moment. Even coworkers who were unable to attend told me, 'thank you so much for sharing your photos! I felt like I was there with you!'.
The ability to take photos in that regard, I think is an exceptionally rare attribute but Joseph embodies it. On another note, Joseph is positively gregarious. He has the best disposition, attitude, and dives right into his work. He's just amazing and so personable. The first time we met (was the wedding day) and I just felt immediately at ease with him. Even my hair and makeup artists told me he's the best photographer they'd ever encountered when working a wedding. As you can see, I cannot recommend him enough!
Joe and his team are truly the best of the best. From the planning process to our engagement pictures up until our wedding day and after, Joe has been a complete professional and pleasure to work with. He takes the most unique, beautiful and memorable shots and makes you feel comfortable and at ease while shooting! Everything was seamless and perfect from start to finish. Highly, highly recommended!!!!!
On a scorching hot day in the middle of July, I could not have expected the results that we have received from Joe!
I had hated every moment of planning the wedding. Joe was one of the easiest people to work with through the planning process. Joe was absolutely patient with me when I took a bit longer then needed to organize the list of wedding photos that I wanted.
It seemed a bit tedious as to sorting the exact timing of each event of the wedding that was requested, but it makes absolute sense as to why he needs an idea of what to expect throughout the day of the wedding.
Joe was absolutely patient with us when we had enough of standing in the sun melting!
Joe had an amazing assistant the day of, Jess, who we absolutely loved as well.
My husband and I are absolutely awkward and Joe made it as painless as possible and made us have fun while taking the photos.
The photos came out beautifully!!!
There was an issue with the thumb drive that was mailed to us, but Joe quickly fixed the issue within 2 days time.
Joe is quick to reply to every email, which is a great quality in the wedding planning.
Highly recommended!
how can i say enough about how amazing joe and his staff are? there are not enough words! lets just start with our engagement session...the place we picked to send joe to had a festival happening that (i) failed to research (sorry joe!). joe got there before us and explained what was going on and our options. i said we are in your hands joe! he took initiative and found a nearby park which we met him at. we were winging it, but it was amazing! my now husband and i were so awkward and didnt know what we were doing, good thing joe did! joe captured brad and i so well in our pictures and we knew our wedding pics would be off the charts! in true brad and emily fashion, the wedding day led to tons of rain and a wedding dress that was being taken in about 2 inches by my bridesmaid. joe and his group were so upbeat and positive through all of the chaos that it didnt even feel like chaos anymore! the place we had chosen to do our bridal party photos was cross estate gardens (highly recommend). joe was in photog heaven! the rain didnt stop him from getting such amazing, unique, fun, pictures! they were troopers for putting up with the rain and the mud. after all the sneak peak pics he put on his site that were incredible, when we got all of our pictures we were blown away! the little details he picked up on without even being told, were incredible! would i recommend joseph delgado?! the answer is HELL YES! he really takes the time to get to know his couples and have fun with them. it honestly didnt feel like we found joe, JOE found US and it truly shows in our wedding album! check out our album "EMILY & BRAD" on joes site and you will see what i mean. love you joe!
Joe is AMAZING! I honestly do not have enough great things to say about him. Joe was the photographer for my wedding on May 30. I get really uncomfortable taking pictures and Joe made the whole experience so much fun and relaxing. We had a long day which involved a morning prep at my house, a church wedding, pictures in a park, and then over to our venue. Joe was there for all of it and helped to make the day run so smoothly. We spent an entire day with Joe and we really just felt like we were hanging out with one of our friends. Having a photographer who is so nice, relaxing, and funny really can set the tone for what could be a chaotic/stressful day. We truly had a blast taking our pictures. At the reception you wouldn't even know him and his team (second photographer and assistant) were there. I've been to some weddings when the cameras are in your face and it's super annoying. In a nut shell, HIRE JOE! This was probably the best wedding related decision we made. I promise you will not regret it. You will love Joe's personality and you will get the most gorgeous photos of the best day of your lives.
We highly recommend Joseph Delgado as a wedding photographer! Our pictures were amazing and working with Joseph and his team was great. We had wanted a photographer who was creative, talented, and reliable...and Joseph far exceeded our expectations! Everyone who has seen our pictures has said they are absolutely stunning. The composition and lighting in Joe's photos is amazing...much much better than a lot of the other photographers we had researched.
It was important to us that our indoor pictures were just as good as outdoors...it takes a really good photographer to master indoor pictures with good lighting etc. Joe and his team did it wonderfully. I can't say enough good things!
We were able to view our photos after our wedding very quickly too, which was great (highlights on Facebook: couple days; blog post and full gallery within month and a half). Joseph was very responsive throughout our planning, which we really appreciated.
Overall, we enjoyed working with Joe very much and we are so glad we chose him and his team to capture our day!
Joe is an absolutely amazing photographer! He is professional yet made us feel so comfortable, he was accommodating to our requests but we really tried to give him free reign for our portraits and are so glad we did! Our photos are amazing and a million times more than what we even expected. We are so grateful and Joe definitely has clients for a lifetime!
We've only gotten a teaser of the photos from our wedding 2 weeks ago but from what we've seen - we're hooked! Joe makes even the most ordinary shot come alive. He was down on the floor getting some of his shots and the result is awesome! We wanted a mix of the traditional and the story shots and Joe's portfolio won me over!
He and his group were really great to work with that day - they listened to what we wanted and made it happen. They were super easy going and had us laughing the whole time!
Throughout the process, Joe was super easy to communicate with, often responding to my emails within minutes.
We did our engagement photos with him as well and they came out great! We received them within a few weeks of the shoot. We expect our wedding photos in about 8 weeks which is much faster than I've heard other brides say it took them to get their proofs back.
We cannot wait to see the finished products!
My husband and I recently got married in Asbury Park and we LOVED Joseph Delgado. When picking a wedding photographer, we not only wanted someone talented and creative, but we wanted someone we enjoyed being around considering we has going to share our big day with us! From our first meeting with Joseph, we instantly liked him. It only got better from there when we had a great engagement session, followed by amazing e session pics.. we were so looking forward to the wedding with him! Not only is Joseph a great guy, but his response time was great. As a bride, you ask questions and expect fast responses, and he always did that for us! We loved all of the pictures we received from him! He's so creative and can think of tons of new ideas instantly. Overall we loved him and would highly recommend him to any engaged couple!
Joseph Delgado and his team were a pleasure to work with and were very professional! They made us feel comfortable throughout our wedding day. When we were searching for a photographer, Joe's work caught our eye because of his creativity and that is what he delivered! The pictures were beautiful and captured the joy of our wedding day. We would highly recommend Joseph Delgado Photography!
I found Joe's work by chance. After talking to other two photographers, I resumed to the old friend, Mr. Google. I liked his portfolio so we decided to meet with him. I will try to underline at least some of the qualities I find in this vendor:
- Professional (quality in service and products)
- Attentive (from the engagement session to the big day, I felt like a VIP)
- Responsive (I got my questions
and emails replied right away)
- Responsible (I chose a second photographer and for my big day Joe was limping so he got a third photographer, just in case. Adding his personal assistant, I had 4 people doing their best and exceding my espectations)
Overall, great experience, highly recommending.
Thanks again Joe and team.
We couldn't have been happier with Joe as our photographer. He was helpful and responsive before the wedding and completely put us at ease during the big day. The final product was exactly what we had discussed prior to the wedding and then some. Again, we couldn't be happier!
Joseph Delgado was very easy to work with! We booked him based on previous work on his website. He was great at accommodating us as we planned our long distance wedding. From our very first meeting we could tell he was energetic and enthusiastic about his job. He wanted to get to know us as a couple and what our vision was for our special day. He was professional, well prepared, fun to work with and has incredible photography skills. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone who is looking for a great photographer with amazing results!
You must choose Joseph for your wedding photography! He is flexible, kind, professional, knowledgeable, skilled, and will make your engagement and wedding photos come out exactly how you'd like. Without a doubt in my mind I will be using Joseph for all future photography needs. He and his team are fabulous at what they do and make you feel like your wedding is the only one they are handling! Choose Joseph for your wedding photography!
Writing a review for Joseph Delgado is almost impossible, as there aren’t words to describe how talented this man is. Our first session with Joseph was for our engagement pictures which were taken on a rainy, windy, gloomy day. As a woman with curly unruly hair that’s pretty much my nightmare, however, in the end every picture was more breathtaking than the last. By the time our wedding day came around we were extremely comfortable with Joseph and I had absolutely no worries about my wedding pictures as I knew they’d be perfect. And I was 100% correct; I simply couldn’t be happier.
You can look on Joseph’s page and see how amazing his photographs are, but what you can’t see is how fabulous Joseph is to work with. My husband and I had a day wedding and had a first look, so the pictures started at 6am. Needless to say I was extremely nervous about the timing and progression of the day. Joseph dealt with roughly a million check-in emails before the wedding day, and really held my hand throughout the process. During our wedding day he was extremely fun to work with and had our wedding parties cracking up making the sometimes tedious wedding party pictures fun and unique.
As cliché as it is, your wedding day flashes before your eyes and is over before you know it. Your wedding pictures are what you have to help you remember your big day, and I’m so grateful to have more stunning pictures than I’d ever imagined. Joseph has incredible vision and sees things the rest of us would probably never see which is why his photos are so one of a kind. If you want someone with incredible talent and vision, and want wedding pictures that will take your breath away, Joseph’s your man!
I used Joseph Delgado Photography for my wedding and I was way more than just pleased with his work. Despite the challenges we had with the weather. Joseph made sure that I was happy and all necessary photos were taking with my husband or I feeling over whelmed with taking pictures. He is creative and amazing at what he does. He posted samples pictures that after the wedding and I had all of the pictures within 6 weeks of my wedding. If your looking for wedding photos that don't look like every one else's he is the person to use.
Joseph is a great guy and a beyond amazing photographer! He is so easy to work with. Any time I would email him, I would hear back almost immediately, which was so nice! He made my husband and I both feel so comfortable and we had so much fun during our engagement photos. The day of he worked so hard to get all the shots we wanted and still managed to let us get to our cocktail hour for a bit like we asked. During the ceremony and reception, he was everywhere and no where at the same time! All our guests were commenting how awesome he was and how amazing it was that he never got in the way since a lot of times photographers end up getting in the way trying to get good shots. I would definitely recommend him to every bride I meet. He is a down to earth, really cool guy who does amazing work!!
Joseph was amazing to work with and takes the best photos we've seen (not just saying that) they are creative and colorful but still traditional wedding photos. Highly highly recommend him!
Joseph Delgado was the photographer for our wedding on December, 28th 2013. Joe not only was an amazing photographer, but an even better person. From the first time we met Joe, we knew right away that he was going to be a pleasure to work with and was going to make our day as special as it could be. Joe is a charismatic and funny person, which made him very easy to work with. From the start with our engagement session, he made us extremely comfortable and went out of his way to reinforce that this whole experience was ours – he would add his suggestions which we loved but at the end of the day we could make it what we wanted.
Another thing that really impressed us was how organized Joe was – before our wedding day, we knew exactly how the time was going to be spent in terms of the first look, bridal party portraits, family portraits, etc. and when they were going to be throughout the day. It really helped ease our minds because we had so many pictures we wanted to capture, but also wanted to make sure we were able to maximize our time at the reception and Joe made that happen exactly as we wanted. Lastly, we were very impressed with the creativity that Joe brought to the table. His photography skills blew us out of the water, creating different poses and using different lighting, angles, lenses, that would have never crossed our minds. Without someone with a creative mind like Joe, we would have never gotten some of the spectacular pictures that we did that really captured the feel of our wedding day. Overall, our experience with the Joseph Delgado Photography team was a 10 out of 10, and I would recommend them to any future couples planning their wedding as he will help to make your day perfect. Thanks a million Joe!
We found Joseph Delgado on The Knot in October 2012 and knew as soon as we spoke with him that he was going to capture the beauty of our wedding day. He was very personable, professional, and his originality really showed. We immediately book 2 engagement sessions, one in the winter and one in the summer, and could not be happier with the outcome. We had a great time with Joe as well. When it came to the wedding day on September 28th 2013 at The Molly Pitcher Inn in Red bank N.J, he and his staff really treated us special. They made the bride feel like a princess (me) ;-), and captured every aspect of our day. We highly recommend Joe for any occasion that may be special to you and your family. We can't wait for our album!

I searched through a lot of photographer websites before I found Joseph Delgado. A few good photographers, which were out of our budget, and a lot of mediocre ones who didn't fit the style and feel we were going for. I set up a meeting with Joseph after a few preliminary emails, and went to meet him at his house with my mother. He responds to emails very quickly, with any questions or concerns you may have. He was very kind, relaxed, informative and answered any questions we had. His work speaks for itself! He is easy to get along with, professional, and confidant, all of which defiantly help put any jitters you may have at ease. The engagement session photo shoot is included in all his packages, and was a lot of fun! You get all hi-res images on a flash drive, some photographers will only give you prints of the images you choose for your album. That was a big plus! The day of the wedding Joseph arrived on time with his assistant and a second shooter went to take pictures of the men getting ready. The whole day ran super smooth, Joseph and his crew were very professional and flexible to anything that came up, we didn't have a very structured 'wedding timeline'. The pictures came out amazing, I couldn't ask for anything more! I will recommend Joseph Delgado to anyone and everyone who asks for a wedding/event photographer.
Joseph and his staff photographed my amazing wedding back in July and we were absolutely stunned with the quality of his work and the level of service we received. When we were searching for photographers, we found anyone that showed his level of skill and artistic ability were in the 3500+ range. When we found Joseph, we were thrilled that his starting price range was under 3K!
On our wedding, he showed up 45 minutes early to "scout" the area and basically assisted all of us with almost anything we needed. Going above and beyond, which as a young bride, this is something I appreciated very much! Joseph and his staff stayed until the end and produced some amazing work. Our full gallery was ready about 5 weeks after our wedding and our albums were in our hands 4 weeks later! My husband and I could not say enough great things about Joseph Delgado Photography.
We found Joseph Delgado Photography through Google search. With my fiance--now husband--taking up photography as a hobby, and both us being artists, we were very picky about which photographer we hired.
As soon as we saw Joseph's portfolio, we knew he would be the right photographer for us. We liked that he had a variety--from perfect formals, well-focused action and dancing shots, creative angles, to breathtaking landscapes. He's also superb at catching candid moments and he's not afraid to try different things.
Joseph is super accommodating and professional (always got back to us via email immediately), really friendly and humorous (got us to shed our camera shyness!), and very hardworking (he will crouch on his knees to get a perfect photo). From our engagement session to our wedding day, we felt really comfortable with him and got excellent quality photos. We would recommend him to anyone looking for a photographer in New Jersey.
When we first met with Joseph, we knew immediately that we'd like to hire him. He was down to earth, friendly, and most importantly, talented. He offered us an engagement session included in the price, which was fantastic not only because we now have some beautiful plain clothes photos of the two of us, but also because we got to know him, and he gave us some great pointers on how to look our best in photos on the big day. On the day of the wedding, he was 30 minutes early to ensure he had time to set up. His assistants and second shooter were friendly and professional. We received our edited photos very soon after our wedding date, and we could not have been more pleased. My non-photographer friends think the photos are beautiful, and my photographer friends think that Joseph's work is some of the best they've seen. They're especially impressed with his use of light and seemingly little editing/filters that needed to be put on after the fact. I absolutely, positively recommend him.
My parents threw my fiance and me an engagement party in NJ at a country club, and we hired Joseph to photograph the event. We vacillated a lot on whether we should hire Joseph or go with a cheaper photographer, and Joseph patiently fielded many calls from me as we decided.
I'm so glad we went with Joseph! Hiring Joseph was the best choice we made and worth every penny! His photos were so beautiful and captured the happiness day. Joseph was extremely professional, friendly and easy to work with. As we were coordinating his services, he always got back to us quickly. On the day of, we decided last minute that we wanted to change the time he arrived and hire him for an extra hour. He was super easy going about it. He also showed up to venue early and made a lot of recommendations on how we should rearrange some of the furniture to make sure we got the best pictures. I really appreciated his attention to detail and professionalism. Finally, after the event, I pinged him to see if I could get a few photos early to use for our "Save the date" for our wedding. He answered my email within minutes and had photos ready within hours! It was awesome.
I'd also like to note that my fiance and I are both of Indian origin and Joseph did great with an Indian event. We are so happy with his photos and my whole family loves them. If we were getting married in NJ we'd definitely use him for our wedding, but alas, we are getting married in California. That said, I hope to work with Joseph again to photograph more family memories in the future!
Joseph Delgado was our photographer for our wedding on August 31, 2013. From our first interaction with Joseph (via email) we knew that we had found THE photographer we wanted to work with. He responded to all of our emails and phone calls almost immediately so we knew we could rely on him. When we first met Joseph, he was knowledgeable and very easy to talk to; he was interested in getting to know us before the "big day" so that he could capture the "real" us. He was honest and trustworthy, so this reconfirmed that he was the perfect photographer for our wedding. During our engagement photo shoot, we found it extremely easy to be ourselves while working with Joseph. The moments that he captured were amazing which made us even more excited for him to be at our wedding. Mid-way through our wedding planning, we asked Joseph if we could add additional services to our package. When he said yes, he also honored all of the prices we had originally discussed and his true professionalism shined. When the wedding day came, Joseph and his team arrived and immediately got to work. Although we were not quite ready, the team shot some of the details of our wedding. Although my husband and I tried to plan the perfect timeline for our day, we fell behind schedule. Joseph and his assistants, Tony and Frank, worked tirelessly to ensure that all of the shots that we requested were taken. When we weren't sure if we had time to visit my grandmother who is in a nursing home, Joseph assured us that we did, and came to the nursing home with us to capture those very special moments. Joseph Delgado has an amazing eye, and his photography is stunning. He went above and beyond our expectations and was an absolute pleasure to work with. We would not hesitate to contact Joseph in the future and look forward to working with him again.
If you want beautiful wedding pictures that will capture your day perfectly, then hire Joseph Delgado! Joseph is extremely professional, talented, responsive, and flexible. He was a pleasure to work with, and was always able to put the people he was photographing at ease. Not only are his pictures a work of art, but they are very creative, breathtaking, and gorgeous! My husband and I can't wait to use him again for our future events and for family photography! We highly recommend that you hire Joe for all your future photography needs as well! Thank you, Joe!
Joseph is really a great photographer. He is reliable, professional and very flexible as well. He's very natural and just becomes part of the wedding. He is easy to work with and very responsive to oyur needs and requests. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a wedding photgrapher who also wants more than just the traditional wedding pictures and wants more of a creative flair!
If you want stunning, jaw-dropping, high quality, and creative photographs for your wedding...look no further than Joseph Delgado! He truly has a gift that cannot be matched by any other photographer. We used Joseph for our wedding and wish that there were enough words to convey how incredibly talented, professional, and hard working he is!! We truly appreciated his responsiveness and how promptly he answered all of our questions. Joe follows through with all of his promises and made sure to do a venue tour with us. Unlike most photographers who would just take a quick glance, Joe spent substantial amounts of time scouting out all of the perfect places for photographs to ensure he could creative the most beautiful, one-of-a-kind images on our wedding day. Joe is a blast to work with and made everyone feel so comfortable and calm. He is the hardest working photographer we have ever seen and really goes out of his way to capture every single detail. His quality of work has left us speechless...we cannot get over how stunning our photographs are! Every time we look at our photographs we fall more and more in love with them. We show them off to our family and friends and they cannot get over how perfect they are! To any bride or groom that wants THE BEST wedding photographs, HIRE JOE! You will not be disappointed!!! Thank you, Joe! You have a gift!!!!
We haven't had our wedding yet but as a part of our package Joe including an engagement picture session and we could not love him more! He keeps in constant communication, he's extremely thorough and very professional. His pricing is more than reasonable and his quality of work is extraordinary! We scheduled fall engagement pictures and they ended up being after hurricane sandy, Joe researched and found a breath taking park unaffected by the storm. I am extremely picky and critical when it comes to pictures of myself and my fiancé is not one to smile, we are in love with every picture we got from our session (we even have a bunch of my fiancé smiling!). We are completely confident our wedding pictures will beautiful and have told Joe he is our photographer for life!
*** review from my wedding:
Joe was absolutely amazing!! My husband and I already knew he did a great job from our engagement pictures but he blew those out of the water with our wedding pictures!! I loved every single picture almost 700 pictures and I loved them all! The day of the wedding Joe showed up early, was extremely professional and not intrusive at all. I even was told by friends and guest how professional and respectful he was. He's very thorough and came very prepared, he was more prepared than I was! He was a saint for dealing with my go with flow mentallity and he covered all areas, the boring family shots my mom had to have to taking a picture of my bald husband balancing his wedding band on his head :). I'm going to recommend Joe to everyone and we are going to use him for life!
Joe has been wonderful to work with ever since we met him. His photos speak for themselves in terms of the quality of work (and value for the money!) - check out his blog and website to see for yourself. We took engagement photos with him last fall (it is included free as part of his wedding packages) and it was a great way to get comfortable with Joe and in front of the camera.
10 months later, Joe and his assistant, Tony, were a breeze to work with on our wedding day. Tony was my go-to guy for anything I needed that day (especially when I could never find the venue coordinator!). Joe and Tony accommodated to every picture I asked for - our family members even commented how fluid the pictures went. I am thankful for all of the memories that Joe captured throughout our special day and how un-stiff and natural the photos have turned out (unlike many wedding photos I've seen).
Joe has always been super responsive by phone and email, and provided us with a very quick turn around time on photos. I would highly recommend his photography to any friends or family. I look forward to using Joe for future events and family portrait sessions down the road. Thank you again Joe for all of your hard work!!!
Joseph was the photographer at our wedding on February 18th, 2012 at Bernards Inn in Bernardsville, NJ. He went above and beyond.
Joseph Delgado provided the best quality photography we could have ever imagined. He always returned emails and phone calls within the minutes.
He went "on location" many times prior to our wedding day to find the best places around our venue.
Not only is he professional, he is extremely creative.
Joseph was able to capture priceless moments and took so many pictures. His personal approach put everyone at ease.
All of our family and friends have complimented on the beauty and creativity of our photos.
Joseph did an AMAZING job!!
Took me months to find the perfect photographer for our wedding! Endless nights searching thru blog postings and portfolios to find that one photographer who would capture our moments in a way we would never forget! What we got was just that, intensified by infinity! This guy is the most hard working, most capable, talented photographer I have come across in a long time! People with this type of skill should be charging triple for the service but the guy seems to enjoy his work so much. If you hire Joe, you'll understand - he becomes entrenched in his work. Not only do you get a photographer, possibly even a good friend!
PICK JOE! Or else you're making a mistake.
