John Schlia Photography

d with. He took fantastic pictures and cannot wait for the final results. Hell, he was deaf accessible too since I taught him the basics!!! He's the man and would take him again in a heartbeat!!

ised when the lighting was tricky at our ceremony location. My wife and I definitely recommend John!

fraid to have fun. He was even able to get some people who don't normally smile to look happy in the photos. He was willing to customize his photography packages for us and we are extremely satisfied with the photos. He has great range as a photographer. We loved the formal portraits, outdoor shots, and the candid photography of the our ceremony and reception. For our wedding and the package we chose John had a partner who was equally fun and talented. The two of them worked really well and made sure to get great coverage of the event.

we were his only clients and impressed us with his attention to detail and his fun personality. We could not have been happier with our choice of wedding photographer!

wedding photos now and each time he takes the time to know exactly what we are looking for, he goes out of his way to make sure he knows the venues we want to take photos at, and works with us on the whole process. I never felt more comfortable with a photographer and never more confident in knowing he will get the pictures we want. I highly recommend John!

ke our engagement photos look as if they were studio quality outdoors, but he also kept us at ease, which is difficult to do when taking my picture. John's amazing talent continued at the wedding, where I didn't see him, and where he didn't miss a shot. He was even able to capture the moments I didn't know I wanted. At other weddings, it feels like the photographer steals the couple away for hours on end. This was not the case with John. He ninja'd around our wedding and reception and we don't feel we missed a moment of our special day!

usband become relaxed and truly capture his emotions throughout the day. My only disappointment was there were only a few bridal shots. But overall I highly recommend John. So happy he was a part of my day.

able to answer all my questions and concerns and helped me pick the package that I needed for my wedding. For our wedding package, John offered a free engagement shoot. Even though my husband and I do not live in Rochester, John worked on our schedule during our Christmas visit in December to make sure we received our engagement photo shoot. He even went to the zoo with us in freezing cold snowy conditions so we could get the pictures we wanted. The results are fabulous! After our engagement session I knew there would be no problems with the wedding pictures. At the wedding we were surprised by a heavy downpour all day. This didn't stop John from being able to get amazing shots! We took some extra time in the church, took a few shots with umbrellas out side, and then grabbed some amazing shots inside our hotel before the reception. During the reception, John was able to capture many candid photos of our family and friends. I love having all the candid shots so I can really remember how everyone felt during the ceremony and the reception. Being a bride is stressful enough without having to worry if you are going to get all the exact shots you want. With John, I didn't have to worry about this at all! I knew I would get all the pictures I wanted and even more! The photos came out beautiful. I ordered many pictures as gifts for my parents and God mother, and am planning on ordering more in the future! If you're looking for a photographer who is relaxed, listens to your concerns, gets to know you on a personal level, and truly makes your day fun and enjoyable, look no further than John Schlia!!

as he did an excellent job of using the scenery at the venue and lighting opportunities to exceed our expectations. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a wedding photographer.

any event as he makes great conversation and has a wonderful personality. John has an uncanny ability to photograph everything you want, without you even telling him. He makes everyone feel beautiful and at ease. From the consultation before your event to him sending the last image, he is the utmost professional and a good friend. I have worked with him for personal head shots, sporting events, non-profit galas, kid and pet photos, and on my wedding day. His artistic eye and abilities with a camera will bring you to tears and provide memories for years to come. Do yourself a favor and hire John Schlia for all of your needs. He is a great guy and an even better photographer!

al prowess and creativity come together to capture your entire wedding experience in a way that tells a story; his personal touch ensures that the story he tells is about you, not just your wedding. Best of all, he is a ninja! He seems to pop out of the woodwork right when he needs to, but you would otherwise never know he was there. Do yourself a favor and hire John to shoot your wedding!

church where we were married and our lakeside reception site. The candids from the reception are perfect examples of how much fun our guests had. John worked hard all day long and was pleasant to be around making it easier for us to have fun and be ourselves, which is reflected in the photos.
