When John Agnello arrived on our wedding day, he immediately put us at ease with his sweet demeanor, telling me that his job was to write the story of our day through photos. From that moment, I knew we were in the best hands. John is not just an outstanding photographer; he is a true artist who went above and beyond to capture every precious moment of our wedding day with grace and creativity.
He brought along the most remarkable team—Jeremiah and Steve—who were nothing short of incredible. Their dedication was evident in every shot they took, and they worked tirelessly to ensure the day was not only fun but that the photos were extraordinary. Every time they shared a glimpse of their cameras, I was absolutely blown away by the beauty they had captured.
Despite the terrible weather—it was unbearably hot and humid—John and his team remained upbeat and energetic, reminding us that capturing the essence of our special day was what truly mattered. Their positive attitudes were contagious, making the day more enjoyable, even under challenging conditions. They were incredibly patient and supportive, especially when I had to redo my entire hair due to the humidity and rain.
John and his team didn’t just take pictures; they captured emotions, moments, and memories that we will cherish forever. Their professionalism, creativity, and kindness truly made our day unforgettable.
Great to work with, gorgeous photos, excellent package price for video and photography. Lots of fun!
John was absolutely amazing throughout the entire day. The pictures that he took were simply amazing and his energy was great from the morning at the hotel room as we got ready, all the way until practically midnight. We also had Adam as our videographer and he was clearly trying to get all of the best shots, he did a great job. John and Adam were such a great team to work with, so professional, and John has so many amazing ideas. We extremely and very highly recommend John Agnello Photography for your special day!!!
John and his crew were very invested throughout the day and made sure we had awesome pictures. The whole team was so talented and made us feel very comfortable. They were with us all day. The videographer was very thorough. We are so excited to see everything!! Thanks John 😊
To say that I am obsessed with our wedding photos is an understatement. John Agnello was our one and only spot for our wedding photographer. He made us feel so comfortable while laughing through our engagement photo shoot & day of our wedding capturing all of the beautiful moments. Just two weeks after our wedding
our photos (all 1,800 of them!) were edited and ready for pickup. I stopped by his office to pick up the flash drive & as he previewed a few photos for me, my eyes filled up with tears … one shot more beautiful than the next. I cannot thank John & Sean for their amazing work. I am so excited to start working on our albums!
I'd like to thank John, Eric, Joseph, Adam, and Dave for making my daughter's wedding such a beautiful memory. All the pictures that John and Eric took are spectacular. They took their time and they made everyone feel so comfortable taking the pictures. It's going to be impossible to pick out the pictures for her wedding album they are all beautiful. The videographers, Joesph and Adam were equally great. The video looks like a movie and we can't stop watching it. And Dave who flew the drone did such a great job and added all the special touches that were needed in the video. If you are planning a special event you have to hire John Agnello Photography and Video. Check out John's Instagram and Facebook or his website at: www.johnagnellophoto.com
Words cannot express how happy I was with my experience with John and his team. From the start, he took beautiful pictures of our wedding proposal, to our engagement shoot, and our wedding last week! Not only does he do an incredible job, but he’s amazing to work with. John has been patient and accommodating, willing to answer any questions at any time. During our engagement shoot, he was excited to take us to several locations to get unique and scenic shots. They came out gorgeous! Our wedding was this past Friday, and my husband and I were beyond thrilled with our experience. John and his team were eager and made my party and I feel comfortable. They followed requests I had made, and captured the most beautiful in-the-moment pictures. John also suggested the drone, and that was amazing! It was a hit and got awesome footage!
We highly recommend John Agnello Photography for any wedding or special occasion.
We are so happy with John Agnello & his team’s work for our wedding. John was kind enough to step in last minute for our wedding on March 24, 2018 when our original plans fell through. On the day of our wedding, John and his team went beyond the call of duty to make sure we had all the pictures we needed. Even when we were running behind on schedule, John stepped in to direct us and the guests so we had all the required pictures taken. He also knew when to give us our space to do the things we needed and didn’t hesitate to tell us when a good photo opportunity presented itself. John has a vision in mind and he will do whatever it takes to ensure that vision comes into fruition - and that worked out perfectly for us as well. Both his photography crew and his videography crew were excellent and extremely professional. We loved having them around and helping us on our day with our wedding pictures and video. We would highly recommend his team for anyone looking for a top-notch professional crew with a drive and passion for what they do.
I randomly found John by driving past his studio on a weekly basis. He had good reviews online so I made an appointment - I am SO glad I did! He was the first photographer we met with and instantly I knew I wanted to book with him. We met with one other photographer and the whole time during that appointment I kept thinking, "I cannot wait to get home and call John!" From our first appointment to our wedding day on 10/21, John was quick to communicate and answered all my crazy neurotic questions. He makes you feel completely comfortable in front of the camera and had us laughing the whole day, (no crazy looking fake smiles!) John also had a drone option which we took advantage of and we also booked our videographer through him. The whole team was a awesome!! We have not received our photos yet, but the few that we have seen him post on instagram are AMAZING. John is truly passionate about his work and his enthusiasm is contagious.
We hired John after he was refered to us by our wedding planner, and we could not have been happier with his work. John and his team did a fantastic job and I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a photographer!
The hardest thing to pick out while planning my wedding was going to be the photographer. The night flys by but the memories last forever, and I wanted
the perfect person to capture those moments on camera. I have to say John did just that. He was such a joy to work with. He was personable, reliable and always available to talk to. Im not the best at smiling in pictures but Johns great personality and funny ways had me grinning from ear to ear each picture. My family and friends are so in love with the photos he took and I can't wait to use him again for the next important moments in my life!
Both my husband and I had such a wonderful and easy experience with John and his assistant Gina! Gina spend the morning with the groom and did some awesome stuff shooting them getting ready and in central park. John and the video crew came to my house to shoot the getting ready process and did an awesome job getting shots with my big bridal party. He was really quick to take creative shots of my choosing and had really great vision with stuff I never would of thought of. At the reception John was really flexible with quick changes in plans and did a great job corralling our huge families into big family shots and wishing my husband and I away for some great one on one shots throughout our venue. We cannot wait to see the final product!
John and and his assistant Gina were great to work with and throughout the day making everyone laugh at every turn- I highly recommend them!!!
John was the first photographer we met with and after viewing his photos and speaking with him in person we knew we found our wedding photographer. He understood what we were looking for and asked us questions to find out about us a couple. For our engagement shoot he went to shoot us in the place we met and we fell in love and was able to capture images of us in places that were familiar to us and important to our relationship. John took his time shooting our photos and gave us a great mix of creative and traditional shots. Our proofs were edited and ready for pick up within the week and were all amazing. John is easy to talk to and is filled with great ideas, we are so excited for him to shoot our upcoming wedding!
John and his crew did an incredible job capturing my wedding. He showed up on time and was very creative and personable. His pictures were incredible and EVERYONE enjoyed the pictures. He knew exactly what to take and which spots were the best for the photos. I HIGHLY recommend him for any occasion. Superb job and thank you John! I am STILL receiving compliments on how great of a job he did!
I had been following JA Photography on FB for a while so I knew when I had my turn, he was the photographer I wanted to use.
We received a special free engagement photo session with Eric and he made a miserably hot humid day so much fun :)
As for our wedding we had Sean. He was funny and meshed well with everyone so the photos came out so natural, nothing stiff. We are having such a difficult time choosing proofs for our album, they're all so great!!

My husband and I were beyond happy with how the final product and pictures came out! The quality of the pictures were excellent. I am not rating this photographer at 5 stars however, because I did have a few issues. The photographers showed up to the hotel late, we had to rush through "getting ready" pictures and got to the church late for the ceremony. The assistant who showed up to take "getting ready" pictures at my husbands house said to him "what do you want to take pictures of? I am usually at the brides house so I don't know." This was off putting considering the photographer is supposed to be the expert. The photographers blocked the ceremony so we got excellent shots, but the guests could not see what was happening. This was especially upsetting for my parents. I specifically told the photographer about utilizing the balcony for shots and re-posing certain shots after the ceremony if necessary. We were more concerned about our guests and the presence of God during our ceremony than good pictures (which was made known beforehand and thought to be understood). This was not honored as the photographers and videographer (all 5) were determined to get up in there to get the shot. My mother requested to one group shot of all family members (aunts, uncles, grandparents, cousins) right before cocktail hour. The photographer gave my mother a hard time about taking the picture and spoke unprofessionally to my uncle. This photographer is great if you as the bride and groom have no agenda or special requests. As long as you let them do what THEY want, you will have no problems and your pictures will be beautiful. If you are picky and have a lot of things you are specifically looking for this is not the photographer to use. Personally I would use him again for pictures as the end result was beautiful, just some small issues that could have gone more smoothly than they did.
You are getting photographer and more when you book John Agnello – you are getting someone with tons of wedding experience who can act as an emcee when needed, who can work quickly under pressure and still make you, your spouse, your family and your whole bridal party laugh. John and his wife were amazing leading up to the wedding – very communicative and helpful. Our engagement photos came out great so we were beyond excited for John to work his photo magic on our big day. He not only took great photos but helped make a special moment happen by leading the charge in asking all of our guests to throw their top hats. The result was an amazing photo of us in front of church with all our friends and family laughing as top hats sailed through the air.
Due to horrible traffic, we only had an hour to churn out all the family, bridal party and couple photos but John and his assistant photographer managed to do so - our final shots are fun, lively and entertaining. There are goofy photos, romantic photos and sentimental photos. The editing has been superb. Literally could not have had better shots of my husband and I – whether outside at night, at church or on the grounds of our venue, John had an eye for the right angles and produced amazing photos.
Hire John so you can assure yourself you will have amazing photos and memories that will last a lifetime. Although John is more costly then some other photographers, he brings with him an amazing personality, a fun factor and talent that is eons above others. He makes the photo shoot fun and is worth the cost. Go with him - you will not regret it.
John and his staff are the best. They got every single shot I wanted without being intrusive to the wedding day activities. LOVE LOVE LOVE this vendor and would highly recommend John Agnello Photography for anyone who wants the utmost quality work put into their wedding album
My photographer for my wedding was AB. She arrived earlier than expected, she paid close attention to detail & was very professional. All of the pictures we received were vibrant and carefully selected. The owner, John captivated my attention immediately by making conversation about who we are and where we are from. He took time out to get to know us which made us feel special. I originally went to visit the DJ, (which we didn't use because he did not follow up with us and wasn't personable) when I met John and his wonderful staff. I really enjoy the customer service that John and his staff provided and continue to provide to us. We Thank you!

John Agnello and his team were amazing! They captured every second of our day from the very beginning getting ready to waving at the camera to end the night. They were extremely professional and we really enjoyed working with them. Many of our guests complimented them through out the night. We recently just saw our proofs and they came out even more amazing than I could have ever imagined. I highly recommend John Agnello.
John Agnello is the only choice you should consider for a wedding photographer. He is so easy going and truly a pleasure to work with. He made our engagement shoot such a blast. He had us cracking up the entire time. The day of the wedding he is there to capture every shot, while not interferring and allowing you to enjoy your special day.
John is excellent and was fun to be around all day. My pictures came out amazing!!!!!!
I was very happy with the service I received from this company! Thank you for helping to make our day so special!!! I feel that once we received our proofs and paid our final payment, they are in no rush to get me the rest of my product. I put in an order begining of July for thank yous and still have not received them when I was told 1 week!
John was recommended to us by a friend who was married earlier in the year. When I saw her pictures I knew I wanted to work with John for our May 19th, 2012 wedding. John first photographed us for our Save-the-Date's; people are still complimenting us on how great they were. Now that the wedding has passed we have the nearly impossible task of choosing from proofs for our album. Every single picture that John took looks amazing! He pays careful attention to detail and considers all aspects surrounding the subject he's shooting. His experience and talent shine when he is able to take those natural, candid shots and make them look intentional. He is not the type of photographer to be in your face with a camera while you're enjoying your wedding but he's always around to capture every minute of your special event. What helped even more was that John worked with us on our budget and was very accommodating. I loved working with him and would definitely recommend him to others!
AB from John Agnello was nothing but accommodating to my every request for my June 2nd wedding. She is a sweetheart and a must for your photography! Would definitely recommend to anyone!
Very Artsy, he knows how to use the location to the best of its ability. Really showcases natural beauty in photographs. His specialty I would say are his "caught in the moment" photographs.
John is a pleasure to work with. We were married during the noreaster in October 2011. I was pretty upset because I wanted outdoor pictures and that clearly wasn't going to happen. He got amazing shots and I can't wait to see them all! We'll be taking family photos for years to come!
John and his assistant Eric were amazing. My proofs are breathtaking and I am having a hard time choosing the images that I want in my album because there are too many options. I can't thank them enough for taking such great pictures that will help to preserve my memories for a lifetime.
John Agnello and his staff are amazing!!!!! Throughout the planning process they were helpful and answered any question I had. They were easy to get in contact with. On the wedding day, they really helped make the experience memorable. They listened to my husband and I, and also added their own touches. I got the proofs back and I loved them!!!!!!!!!!
My father was a professional photographer, so this was very difficult for me because i know the business very well! John and his staff are truly fabulous. Their photos are GORGEOUS-i was moved to tears when we met with John and i saw his work! If you want the most beautiful pics, you MUST meet with them-you will fall in love with what they are able to create! Very Talented and magnificent photography-also many reasonable price options.
We are really happy with the proofs (1500 of them) we received from John Agnello. he took such gorgeous shots throughout the night. I was particularly pleased with the shots of me getting ready at my parents house-they were beautiful. We are very happy with them and will have a hard time narowing them down for our album!
John Agnello is a wonderful photographer. He has a wonderful personality and has an eye for the unusual. His office staff are wonderful and are extremely helpful.
If you want someone professional and a lot of fun, then hire John to shoot your wedding.
Thanks John!
We received so many compliments on Bill and Sean. They weren't intrusive on our evening at all and took SO MANY shots! We haven't seen the final results yet but I know we will be pleased!
