An All-Star Photographer!
As I was searching high and low on instagram for a photographer to capture our wedding, I noticed Nick’s page and was completely captivated by his work (bonus that he previously shot a wedding at our venue!). My now husband and I decided to go with Nick because of his personal approach and attention to detail. We loved that he immediately took interest in us as a couple and ensured we were all comfortable by including an engagement shoot with our package. I am naturally detailed-oriented so I liked filling out the questionnaires Nick provided to ensure that he understood our vision and what we would like captured. He is organized, professional, and extremely personable. Specifically, during our engagement session, it was an extremely humid day in the middle of July and I was not feeling well walking around in the heat. Nick went out of his way to ensure there were many moments where I could rest and take breaks. He also went the extra mile to walk around the Wharf (our engagement shoot location) to find a store and bring me back a bottle of water while my husband sat to wait with me for Nick to return. Nick was able to work around the heat and our photos still came out AMAZING. 10 out of 10 service! My husband and I absolutely love the beautiful moments Nick captured between our engagement and wedding. He captures portraits and “off-guard”/“action” shots very well. We loved that Nick and the second photographer were able to gather many unplanned photos of our family, friends, and the many details throughout our wedding. We highly recommend him!

Everything we wanted and more!
We loved working with JB Elliott! JB Elliott Photography did an incredible job shooting our wedding!! Nick and Kenny were the absolute best! We really appreciated their warm, professional, non-intrusive energy and approach throughout the night. We felt very cared for and understood by them. We couldn't recommend them enough to couples looking for a great experience. We also showed Nick samples of shot that we liked and he made sure to create some of our own for our special day.

Wonderful Team made pictures easy!
We had Nick take our engagement photos as we felt his work was very natural. From our first meeting with Nick, we were able to see he was passionate about photography. After our engagement photo session, we knew we wanted him to do our wedding as well. Nick and his assistant were great. They were flexible and were able to help direct my wife and I (we are sometimes on the more introvert side, so it was good to have someone who could direct us). Overall, JB Elliott Photography is an amazing company and I would recommend them in a heartbeat!

Nick was professional, personable, and extremely easy to work with. He came prepared with a clear vision for our poses and backdrops, resulting in wedding portraits that looked like they came out of a fairytale. During the ceremony, Nick circulated constantly to capture all the best angles and he even recorded a video of the entire ceremony so we wouldn’t miss a moment. The quality, lighting, and editing of Nick’s photos are truly impeccable. His enthusiasm, helpfulness, and diligence in his work made him an absolute delight to have at our wedding ceremony. We are so thrilled with our wedding portraits and will cherish them for the rest of our lives.
Thank you, Nick!

Nick is a superb photographer.
We have now used JB Elliott Photography twice: for our wedding in 2020 and for our daughter Sonya's wedding to Joseph Gasper this month. Both times, Nick was on-time, organized, efficient, responsive, and friendly--and produced a large, amazing group of high-quality keepsake photos. We recommend him enthusiastically and without reservation both for wedding photography and for any other assignments of any sort. He is exquisitely professional and exceptionally talented.
Sincerely,
James and Vivian Kobielus

JB Elliott Photography did an AMAZING job with our wedding photos! We just celebrated our 5th wedding anniversary and I can honestly say EVERY SINGLE TIME over the last 5 years that I’ve viewed our pics in my phone or in the big beautiful leather album JB Elliott Photography put together for us, it feels like I’m reliving the moment all over again. He really did an excellent job of not only capturing flattering pictures, but pictures that truly conveyed the emotion of the moment. Even 5 years later I am STILL well pleased and amazed by his work of providing us with timeless wedding photos that give me alllllllllll the feels and excitement of our wedding day!

A pleasure working with Nick & his team!
It was a very great experience working with Nick & his team for our wedding. Nick was consistently helpful and responsive in planning & prepping for our wedding, often offering best practices and tips for what he's seen in the past. He was very detailed and intentional and wanted to make sure his vision aligned with what we were going for as well. The day couldn't have been any smoother; the crew was very efficient and prompt on pre-wedding photography and got some good candid material that was fun to see after. Nick & team captured the essence of our wedding perfectly from prep to ceremony and through the evening; being nimble and creative in their shots. Thank you again Nick for the amazing photography and all the help for our big day!

Looking through our beautiful photos brings so much joy. To this day, I am blown away by how stunning everything turned out. Nick captured our best moments and the fine details of our wedding. It is incredible how the emotions and feelings of the day shine in the photos. Nick’s photography is vibrant, authentic, and timeless. We are truly lucky to have encountered his talent and kindness.
For everything that goes into a wedding, Nick truly understood and was empathetic to the anxieties of couples getting married. He answered our questions and listened to our priorities throughout the process. He was very responsive and highly organized. His time management and preparedness for every scenario kept us on track and allowed us to enjoy our special day!
Lastly, some of the amazing things Nick helped execute flawlessly: We didn’t want an album of exclusively us, so we requested guest photos at cocktail hour. We love the special photos of our family and friends. Also, the second shooter was very talented and great to work with on our wedding day. They made us feel comfortable posing.
Simply put-Our wedding would not have been the same without Nick!

After getting engaged, we started looking for a photographer to take engagement photos of us. We decided that whoever we chose for our engagement photos would also do our wedding photography as well. We felt we could build a relationship with them and they would understand what we like and don't like. After a thorough search we selected JB Elliott. Nick walked us through how his process works from start to finish. Our engagement photos were amazing and that locked us in for him and his team to shoot our wedding. Our photos came out great and he was very attentive to our requests and other various details. My wife and I definitely recommend his services.

I am so grateful and thankful for the excellent photography my husband and I received from Nick from JB Elliott Photography. Nick was creative, patient, fun, strategic, helpful, diligent, and he is definitely an expert in photography. Everyone loves my photos and I cannot wait to blow up our pictures and place them around our home. Capturing wedding memories are so important therefore the investment is worth it. I have no regrets. I have so many awesome photos that bring me laughter and joy. Nick, I cannot thank you enough for making our wedding day so special. I can tell that photography is truly your passion. My husband and I will return for your services when we start our family pictures down the road. Thank you so much! Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!!

JB Elliott Photography, Nick, did an outstanding job on our wedding and engagement photos! Choosing a wedding photographer can be quite daunting but if you're looking for classic, true to color photos that will never go out of style, Nick is your man! Neither my husband nor I are natural posers but Nick made us feel so comfortable and talked us through everything, where to look, where to position our hands, etc. He was incredibly flexible, we had to change our wedding plans a few times due to COVID and he was always up for whatever the new location ended up being. Before the wedding, I got on a Zoom meeting with him to talk through and finalize the timeline for our wedding day - his communication was great! When we received both our wedding and engagement photos, they were organized by event/location which made it very easy to navigate. Selecting the photos for this review was incredibly difficult because I'm in love with all of them! I would 100000000% recommend JB Elliott Photography for your wedding and engagement photos!!!

Nick has been our family photographer for 5 years now. He’s done our engagement, wedding, newborn, and family pictures. I can’t imagine using an other photographer as he’s now become a family friend.
Below is my review that I left on his site after our engagement: Nick is amazing! My husband and I were very pleased with Nick's professionalism and body of work. After seeing his pictures, I knew we had to book Nick, no matter what the cost! We were so happy with our engagement photos and our wedding photos that I already look forward to booking Nick again in the future! Not only does Nick do great work, but he is easily accessible. Any time I had any questions, he responded back within 24 hours or less. If you want beautiful pictures that you will fall in love with, Nick is the photographer that you need for any occasion! I cannot say enough good things about him and his work.

Excellent Experience!! JB Elliot Photography was one of the best decisions I made for my wedding. We met Nick when we did our engagement session and we were in LOVE!! instantly with the way the photos turned out. It had previously rained the night before but the way he strategically positioned my husband and I no one would the wiser or that the photos were taken at 32 degrees. He was prompt and very detailed he capture the smallest details that we wanted he walked us through the entire process with his tips and tricks to make sure the day went off without a hitch. He wore many hats for Alex and I that we did not want for anything. Nick is dedicated to his client he exhibits patience and understanding from the moment the contract was established he was available for us until the very end. We will definitely be using him for future engagements. We now have a photographer for life.

We chose Nick as our engagement photographer, as we're getting married out of town. He was incredibly flexible and patient, as we had to reschedule our session and were running late the day of! From first contact and submitting payment to completing a style survey and the actual session, Nick was always professional and easy-going. The photos were uploaded to an online gallery and ready for review less than a week after our session and we could not be more pleased with the final result! I would ABSOLUTELY recommend Nick for anyone looking for a quality photographer at an affordable price.
