Giovanni and his team were outstanding! Him, Jim and Chris are so much fun to spend the whole day with! You have to realize these guys are who you truly spend your whole wedding day with and I was so happy we picked this team because they were amazing from our first meeting with Giovanni, to phone calls here and there and the day of wedding so on time and on point!
Him and his team did any request we had and just knew what they were doing but truly cared!
Giovanni was a no brainer when we were wedding planning and we were so happy we did !

We very highly recommend Giovanni Photographic Artist as your wedding photographer!
My partner and I got married in March 2024, and thanks to the team at Giovanni Photographic Artist, we get to relive the best day of our lives with gorgeous photos and an amazing video. We met with Giovanni of Giovanni Photographic Artist over a year before our wedding date and he really took the time to get to know us and figure out what exactly we wanted for our wedding, whether it was the tone of our day we were looking to capture, the specific shots we wanted or even our vision for the photos. He also offered a wide variety of options for the wedding packages and the types of photos and videos he can take, and provided us with very thorough explanations of the different photos, cameras and shot types.
Giovanni and his team were all very professional and accessible throughout the entire process, on the day of and in the planning of the timeline for photos and shot list for the day. My partner and I did have a lot of specifics that we wanted for our wedding pictures, but Giovanni covered it all. He included everything we asked for and more, and the end result was far better than we could have ever imagined. Our timeline the morning of the wedding was very tight and we were even running behind schedule (our fault), but we wanted to get all of our photos done before the ceremony and reception. I do not know how, but Giovanni and his team were able to make it all work, without issue. They captured all of the pictures we wanted and then some, without rushing or having any impact on the quality of his work, and without making us miss any of our wedding day. On the day of the wedding, Giovanni and his team were so easy to work with and were extremely understanding and respectful of what we wanted. They really made it a seamless and stress free process, and gave us one less thing to worry about that day.
When we saw the final results of the pictures, we could not believe our eyes. We were astounded by the remarkable detail and quality of the photos, and we could not have been happier with how all of the pictures and the videos, made by Christopher Gramuglia, came out. Giovanni’s craft is truly a work of art. We honestly cannot say enough great things about Giovanni, Chris and the team at Giovanni Photographic Artist. Their service is impeccable and their work is extraordinary. Thanks to them we will always have these phenomenal photos to help us remember the most important day of our lives. We highly recommend you use Giovanni Photographic Artist as your wedding photographer!
Sincerely,
Mr. & Mrs. David & Elissa Figueroa

Originally Giovanni was going to shoot our wedding. Because of COVID, everything went sideways and there was limited availability when rescheduling. He apologized and assured me that he would send his business partner Ron, who is super talented. Ron and his assistant Sal were an absolute godsend! They were the glue that held our day together. I couldn’t have asked for a better team. They were keeping track of time and the flow of our afternoon. All our photos were done pre-ceremony. They coordinated with the venue and our dj on timing for our programming. They made sure we got everything we wanted photographed. These guys worked hard and hustled. My husband and wedding party thought they were fantastic. I would have to say, everything worked out and they exceeded our expectations. No bride should be deterred from booking with Giovanni (or Ron). I’ve read other reviews that he’s doubled booked in the past. I wouldn’t be worried. We had a great experience. These guys are experts and you can expect top notch. Can’t wait to see our photos!

Giovanni was the absolute best photographer to work with. He is calm, cool and collected, and takes absolutely stunning pictures! He spent the entire day with us from beginning to end without skipping a beat. He worked so well with our videographer which made the day flow nicely. I don't have enough good things to say about Gio. Thank you for the awesome memories!

Giovanni is the BEST! He is insane when it comes to taking pictures. He will go out of his way to get the best shot. The pictures that he took for our engagement shoot and for the wedding were absolutely perfect. He really knows his stuff. Giovanni was a pleasure to work with throughout this entire wedding planning process during Covid. Come the day if the wedding, Giovanni and his team were very professional, they were working hard, and they kept me laughing the entire time. Giovanni really knows how to capture the perfect shot. If anyone is looking for a talented, detailed, and professional photographer...I recommend Giovanni and his team 10000%

Giovanni and his team were incredible throughout our entire wedding planning process. My husband and I had to change our wedding date three times over the past year, and Giovanni was always there to answer any questions that we had, and to assure us that everything was going to work out!
At our wedding on 7/11/2021, Giovanni and Dominic were INCREDIBLE! They were professional, attentive, personable, and knew exactly how to make everyone feel comfortable taking photos. Giovanni and his team captured every moment you could think of throughout the wedding day. So many of our guests have reached out to say how amazing the photographers were – they were even on the dance floor with us! We cannot wait to see how incredible our photos turned out!
We also booked José for videography through Giovanni. I couldn’t say more amazing things about José! He made us feel comfortable taking videos, gave perfect instructions about what to do, and captured all of our most special moments. We cannot wait to see the final product!
Overall, all I have to say is 5 stars isn’t enough for Giovanni and his team! I highly recommend booking with Giovanni for any event that you are planning!

I can't even begin to explain how much Giovanni, Carlo, Chris & our assistant hands down made our wedding day. Whatever these pictures come back as, the amount of fun we had taking pictures with them was unreal. Absolutely nothing was awkward, better yet we couldn't stop laughing at just how ridiculous they were being to get us to laugh. The amount of effort this "squad" put in to making our pictures the best they can be was unimaginable. Absolutely beyond personable, I would use them 100 times over and recommend them to absolutely anyone, especially couples who feel awkward in front of the camera because that will be out the window in the first 30 seconds. I can't express enough appreciation for the effort they put in to finding the right spots to capture our perfect moments. Finally, shout out to Chris for literally memorizing my shot list, way better than I ever could and making sure we got each pose I wanted. I really cannot say enough great things about Gio & Carlos team, because they left us speechless. HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND if you want to have fun taking your photos.

Him and his staff were dressed and acted very professional and went above and beyond to make me and my wife feel comfortable! Giovanni took control of everything and created timeless photos we’ll cherish for the rest of our lives! If you don’t use Giovanni, you’re doing your wedding day a huge disservice!! He’s the best!!

My wedding was on May 26th, 2019. After waiting until I received my albums at the beginning of February 2021 I am finally able to write an honest review. While I can attribute some of that time passed to the pandemic, I cannot allow the pandemic to take the fall for the lack of communication.
Let's start at the beginning. Giovanni was fantastic during the planning process. Extremely helpful with planning the timeline of him arriving and receptive to the shot list I provided.
Day of: Giovanni, his assistant, Carlo, and his assistant arrived on time ready to shoot! The photographs of getting ready to the church, and ceremony all went fine. The portraits at the venue are now over and we are in the reception. The assistant that came with Giovanni was flat-out RUDE. He ROLLED HIS EYES at my mother because she was enjoying herself on the dance floor rather than at her table taking a photo. He then proceeded to tell me, with an attitude "Your mom doesn't want to take a photo she is too busy dancing." I responded with "Great I hope she is too busy dancing and enjoying herself at the wedding she is paying for. Please move to a different table and come back to her table at a later time." I then received another eye roll. As you can imagine I was extremely unhappy at this point and had no patience for the assistant any longer. The night went on and everything was fine. Carlo was SO great when I wanted to take a few photos with friends and was willing to help us out.
Once the reception started I rarely saw Giovanni, he seemed to have disappeared and the only photographer on the dance floor was his assistant and Carlo & his assistant videoing. Ok...whatever. It then reached the end of the night and I swear they just disappeared. No one ever let me know they left and there was just suddenly no photographer or videographer anymore. Ok... fine.
The real problems started to arise after the wedding. If you think you are recieving ONE photo before 3 months you are mistaking! I asked for a sneak peak about 2 weeks after my wedding because I was SO excited to see the photos - I did not even receive an email back saying anything. Once your full payment is recieved there is little to no support from the team. I had to ask what the steps were to move forward with building the albums, no instructions or support was given. COMMUNICATION WAS NON EXISTANT!!!! Every time I reached out I either did not recieve an email back or what I did get back was a 1 sentence email about Italy being closed due to COVID. I understand there is an pandemic but there is only so much you can blame on the pandemic. Everytime I asked about the timeline it was suddenly my fault that I did not send back the photos I wanted included in a timely matter. It may have taken me a little longer to do so and I admitted that, but blaming your client is not the way to go.
After recieving my albums 19 months after my wedding I was happy to be done with this process. Now, in my contract I should have also recieved an enlargement and a photo calendar.. I never recieved those items and Gio never seemed interested in fulfilling those remaining items.
If you are looking for photos of your wedding that are posed like you should be in a magazine Giovanni is the photographer for you. If you are looking for a photographer that will bring out you and your partner's personalities I suggest you look elsewhere.
If you are looking for a great videographer Carlo was AMAZING!

We got married on 9/20/19 and could not be happier with choosing Giovanni and his crew for our photos and video. We got engaged back in March of 2017 and Giovanni was one of the first vendors we picked. We sat down with him in his office and just loved everything we saw when it came to his pictures on the wall and his albums.
He answered any question I had (trust me, I probably had a lot haha) and was very responsive. On the day of the wedding, Gio and his team split up (some went to where my husband was getting ready and some went to me). I first remember meeting Carlo the videographer and he was so nice and reassured me that everything would be perfect. The team then met up with each other at the church and then the venue.
Fast forward to now, we received our pictures before Christmas. They came out STUNNING. We could not be happier and working on the thank you cards with some beautiful pictures as we speak. I love our video as well - we received a trailer and the raw video footage. We also decided to do a same day edit shown at the wedding. So many guests were blown away with the same day edit!
Giovanni is a wedding photographer like no other - professional, easy to work with, and makes you feel comfortable in front of the camera. Not to mention, he was sitting down on the floor in his suit getting those awesome angles!
Book Giovanni and his team for his wedding - you will not regret it!

Giovanni was phenomenal! My husband found him through his connections in New Rochelle and from the moment we met him we knew that was our photographer!
He was so attuned to the littlest details and made me and my husband feel so relaxed during pictures that it made the big day go as smooth as we have envisioned! Even with it being a rainy day we know we are going to have some great pictures!
I can't wait to see the pictures from the big day!

From the first moment we met Giovanni, we instantly connected. His place of business is professional with lots of his beautiful pictures and photo albums, but it also made you feel like you are at home. Giovanni was so honest and informative, considering it was a vow renewal for us after 16 years, and I had no idea about ANYTHING. He was easy to talk to and he genuinely made me feel immediatley comfortable with my decision. Giovanni gave me a timeline about 2 weeks before the wedding for himself and my other vendors should be adhering to and he was right on the money!! Giovanni and his crew couldn't have been any nicer to my family and me, and they were funny together too lol. Please everyone do the 1st look!! We got sooo many picture taken before the ceremony, inside and outside so we had so much more time to spend with our guests. Again Giovanni recommended it and it made complete sense. He and his team were with us the ENTIRE night with a videographer. I can't say enough about Giovanni. We are 1000% satisfied and can't wait to use him again. Giovanni is the ABSOLUTE BEST.

Giovanni and his team are absolutely incredible!! They arrived in the morning at my bridal suite when I was so nervous wanting everything to go perfect and they immediately calmed me down by how professional and friendly they were. Everything went seamlessly as they knew exactly when and where we should be. They joked around with my bridal party and I where we felt completely comfortable and became their friends throughout the night. I’m sure I was such a pain in the butt and he wasn’t even phased- he knew exactly when and where we should be, the perfect lighting, scenery, positions and everything to make everything perfect. He was so easy going and reliable we were so incredibly lucky to have him. You can tell that his equipment is top notch and that he has the experience behind him to make everything perfect. Trust me if you want a smoothly run, professional and enjoyable experience choose gio!!! He’s the best!

Giovanni is the best!! From the very first meeting he was very professional and laid back. He did our engagement shoot and I realized right away that he will do anything to get the shots that he needs. He joked with us to make us very comfortable. My husband is very camera shy and he helped him loosen up and showed him how to stand and everything. This past Saturday was my wedding. From the moment he got to the hotel, he set up shop and did what he had to do. When it came to pictures, he knew exactly what he wanted. Told us to look here and look there and do this and do that. He truly made the day fun for me, my husband and my wedding party. Making jokes along the way so we were all laughing and having fun. I highly recommend Giovanni. He is awesome and an extremely talented photographer. I can’t wait to see how our pictures came out. Thank you Giovanni for making our day perfect!!

Giovanni photographed our wedding on 9/30/18. He was amazing! Giovanni is very courteous and professional, not to mention an extremely talented photographer. He took so many pictures - each one was creative and artistic - it shows that he puts thought into every photograph! We also arranged to have most of our group photographs taken before our ceremony. Giovanni made sure that he took a lot of shots, without keeping us away from the party or our guests. Thank you for capturing so many beautiful memories of our special day!

Giovanni was one of the first vendors we booked with for our wedding back in July, and we wouldn't have wanted it any other way. He is so easy to work with and makes you feel at home in every meeting and photography session. We had our engagement photos done with Giovanni and they were magnificent. Everything was seamless up through the day of our wedding. Giovanni and his assistant Chris were outstanding, and all of our guests were so happy and impressed with his photography. Our photos came out so beautiful and elegant, and we are so grateful for all of the time and effort Giovanni put into making our wedding day so special. We can't wait to see our Wedding album with all of the beautiful photos he captured on the most perfect day! Thank you for capturing our wedding in such a beautiful way! We highly suggest anyone using Giovanni for their next event--he is the real deal!

Giovanni, and his assistant Chris were amazing on our wedding day! It goes without saying a wedding day is very exciting, but also pretty stressful! It helps to have an experienced, calm photographer! I am in the field myself, and am pretty picky when in comes to photographers, and their work. Giovanni is a 10 out of 10. Very responsive, CREATIVE, pleasant, professional, easy going, puts you at ease, very experienced, quick on his feet, organized, did I mention CREATIVE? quality really matters when you get the photos! at the end of the day, the photos he took captured an entire event, emotions, glamour, laughter, celebration, and the quality of the photos are superb. Crisp, hi-res, unique moments, great colors. Me and my husband were very, very, very pleased from start to finish with Giovanni. Book him, and don't look back!

Truly an amazing fun experience from day 1! When we met Gio, we instantly clicked and knew this was the guy we had to work with. We were in great hands and had nothing to worry about. Gio and his assistant Dom are a great team that get the best possible shots. Then add in Carlo the videographer, and it's the perfect combo. Aside from capturing the moments that meant the most to us, they make a point of letting you know they always have time for you. Easy to work with and all around most of all good people. A relationship was formed and a comfort level was reached and by getting to that point, an amazing time was was captured through Gios camera.

WOW!!! These guys are the real deal!!!! Put it this way, on our wedding day, it rained for about 25 mins - then the sun came out!!! Sure enough, my photographers were laying down on the wet grass - in their suits - taking pictures!!! Very professional men, always watching the clock, and the pictures these gentlemen took were breathtaking!!! They showed us several pics on their camera, it had GQ written all over it!!!! Celebrity status!!! They made sure they took every possible picture worth taking. We have an eye for photography, and my wife and I visited our venue several times before the big day - and on our wedding day, these guys were so creative, we were taking pics that we never would've even thought about!!!! HAHA! A huge THANK YOU to Giovanni, Freddy and Chris!!!!!!!!! Keep on rocking!!! Love, Joey & Krystal

My husband and I decided to get married and do everything rather quickly in only 3 short months. You can imagine the stress trying to get everything together! However, deciding to go with Giovanni as our photographer was the best thing we could have done. From the moment we met him we just immediately felt comfortable and knew he had everything under control, which meant one less thing I would have to stress about. He worked with us to pick an affordable package on our budget and was very helpful with anything we needed. We also used his videographer who we had not met until the day of the wedding but again they were amazing and easy to work with as well. I can say they made our day so very special and when it came to the pictures and video everything went smoothly and just as we wished. Not to mention when we recently received our pictures from him they were absolutely beautiful and I loved every single one of them! This photography establishment is one where you get what you see there is no hidden agendas and no one trying to take advantage of you (which I had encountered with another photographer). I felt so comfortable in every way and I can't thank them enough for capturing my wedding day beautifully from beginning to end!!!!!!

I first met Giovanni at the Woodcliff Lake Hilton bridal show, and remember noticing immediately how his showcased work was unique compared to all other photographers there. I remember telling my mom that night, "I really like Giovanni's work, but I'll wait to see some other photographers too." When I met Giovanni again a few weeks later at a different bridal show, and saw how his work still stood out above the rest, I knew I should follow my first instinct -- it was time to schedule an appointment. From the moment we sat down with Giovanni he was friendly, easy going, and it felt as though we had known him for years. It was a no brainer, then, when we selected him as our wedding photographer. Giovanni used his expertise to help organize our day-of schedule. He and his team arrived on time, dressed professionally in suits. Their easy going temperament was just what we needed on wedding day - they kept us laughing, and feeling cool, calm and collected. Giovanni worked meticulously to capture my "getting ready" pictures, and his eye as a true photographic *artist* became clear to me. He shot photos of me thru light fixtures and patio trellis holes, he climbed up ladders and laid out on the grass, all to capture the best photos for us. We (and our family!) were in awe when we received our wedding day photos! We have over 4,000 pictures of the greatest day ever, that are ours to keep. So, if you are looking for a creative, professional photographer who takes pride in his work and treats you like a dear friend, then Giovanni is surely the man for the job! We highly recommend him.

Best photographer we could have chosen! His work is simply phenomenal and so artistic! Don't go anywhere else searching for more photographers the search ends here. You will never regret it.

We used Giovanni as our photographer for our May wedding. Before choosing him, we met with a lot of photographers. As soon as we met Giovanni, we were not only drawn to his beautiful photographs displayed in his studio, but his awesome personality. From start to finish, he was super responsive and an absolute pleasure to work with. Our bridal party commented on how fun he was to be around and how he made the entire "picture taking" process fun and enjoyable. When we received our pictures, we were blown away. We love each and every one of them and are having an extremely difficult time narrowing them down to choose our album! Giovanni - thank you for all you did to capture our wedding day so perfectly. We now have photos of our special day that we will cherish for a lifetime. We look forward to working with you again in the future. Brides and grooms, look no further. You will not be disappointed.

We had a really positive experience with the Giovanni team for both our engagement pictures and farm style wedding in upstate NY! Giovanni may be a city based photographer but he was perfectly comfortable in this small town setting and the pictures prove that his talents and vision have no boundaries or limitations! The pictures were creative, encompassed my husband and my personalities perfectly and were painless to take. Giovanni brought 3 other people to assist him so all the angles were covered and each team member was as professional as the next.
Feel free to tell Giovanni exactly what your vision is and the pictures you must have, he’ll be happy to oblige, but I would encourage everyone to give him some creative liberty, you won’t regret it! The pictures are simply breathtaking. We will cherish our wedding day with these pictures as beautiful reminders for years to come. - Jen and Tyler Johnson

Giovanni and his staff are excellent at what they do. Everything from our engagement photos, to our wedding photos, and then to our wedding album looked absolutely spectacular! First, all of our guests were blown away by out gorgeous save the date (thanks to the beautiful picture Giovanni took of us in central park) and then we received tons and tons of compliments from everyone who saw our wedding pictures and album. Giovanni has an eye for capturing the best photos of you and your groom durint your engagement session and wedding day. You can not go wrong with choosing Giovanni, you will certainly be pleased with all of his photographic services!

About 5 years ago I stumbled upon wedding pictures on facebook. My husband and I couldn't believe how beautiful they were. I noticed the name Giovanni and went to his website where we were even more impressed. Since we were only boyfriend and girlfriend then, I made sure I saved this information for the future ;)
So, when my husband proposed to me in 2014, we knew exactly who we wanted for photos - Giovanni! Within a few days of the proposal, I called Giovanni and we set up an appointment. From the very first meeting, it was apparent that Giovanni was more than a photographer, but an artist! All of his photos are incredibly beautiful and thought out. So obviously, we booked hiM!!
Fast forward to July 2015, our wedding day! Giovanni went ABOVE AND BEYOND . The poses were amazing, the scenery gorgeous. We took pictures at the groom's house, bride's house, inside the church, outside of church, Glen Island, and all over our venue, Beckwith Pointe, from the beach, to the rocks, to the park! Giovanni even took us during the night and we took an amazing photo with fire in the background. I haven't even seen my pictures yet, but I am writing this review because I am so confident that our pictures turned out beautiful.
So many people came up to me to tell me they were so impressed by the photos Giovanni took that day. Even someone who recently got married and booked another photographer said she should have met with him for her photos.
Wedding photos are something you will have for the rest of your life. So many people I know have regrets about their photos and do not even want to look at them. My husband and I are lucky because I know we will love our pictures and probably will not be able to stop staring at them thanks to Giovanni!
Thank you Giovanni for making our wedding day so memorable! And special thank you to your assistant Chris!

Giovanni and his crew were amazing! They were funny, easy-going and professional all at once. We are thrilled over our photos. Schedule an appointment to meet him, brides, you will not be disappointed. As always, have a list of photos that you'd like to be taken and share that list with a bridesmaid or parent besides Giovanni. The day is so overwhelming! But thankfully Giovanni gave me over 2,000 photos to relive!
