About this vendor
MY PHILOSOPHY | I’m sure your mind is racing with all that needs to be planned. It’s all very exciting but it can also be somewhat overwhelming. You’re planning the day that you’ve been anticipating your whole life and yet you only get one shot at it! By the time you get the hang of it, the planning is over! Our goal as wedding photographers is to make this one aspect of the planning process simple. Photography is more than just images, it’s a real part of your day. Not only do you deserve beautiful images, you also deserve an amazing photographic experience. When our couples feel comfortable and relaxed in front of the camera, that results in genuine, joyful images! When I think back to my wedding day, I remember amazing memories.... but most of the moments I remember really well are the instances that were captured in my pictures. They are priceless to me. Our photographer made us feel so incredibly comfortable and for the first time, I experienced what it feels like to be in front of the camera as a groom. Your wedding day is an experience from beginning to end and your photography is a huge part of that experience.... shouldn’t it be fun? and enjoyable? and natural? I think so! My goal is to not only capture memories for my clients, it’s to create an experience that they will never forget.
MY PROCESS | One way I ensure that our brides and grooms enjoy the BEST photographic experience possible is through forming a relationship with our couples. We try our best to make sure that all of our couples are the PERFECT fit for us before officially booking. A bride and groom should connect with their photographer, trust their photographer and be EXCITED about the whole process with them! After booking, I love getting to know my clients through an ENGAGEMENT SESSION that helps them warm up to the camera so that they are ready to rock and roll on the wedding day! By the time the wedding day arrives, my clients feel more like friends and that creates a safe and relaxed environment for photography!
THANK YOU | I’m so glad that you took the time to view our page! Enjoy this season of engagement and get excited about your BIG DAY because it’s going to be fabulous! Plan and prepare but always remember that at the end of the day, you’re marrying the love of your life and that’s all that really matters. Congratulations on your engagement and I look forward to hearing from you!
Kindly,
JT

We are beyond grateful for Justin!! From the first phone call to the final delivery, he was attentive, flexible, and such a calming presence. On our wedding day, he somehow managed...
to be everywhere at once, capturing the big moments, like our first look, but also the little glances, hugs, and in-between smiles that we’ll treasure forever. The photos are absolutely breathtaking.. natural, full of emotion, and beautifully lit. The photos don’t feel staged; they feel like us. Looking through our gallery brings us right back to the day, and that’s a priceless gift. If you’re looking for someone who truly understands how to capture the heart of your wedding, we couldn’t recommend Justin more!!
Justin (Justin Tibbitts Photography) was hands-down one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. His attention to detail, eye for elegance, and ability to capture the emotion...
and beauty of every moment was nothing short of remarkable. Every photo reflects a sense of grace and style, with thoughtfully composed angles, lighting, and settings that bring the entire day back to life.
Beyond the incredible artistry, Justin played a key role in our wedding day timeline, helping to keep things moving smoothly while making sure we never felt rushed. He was attentive to every pose, while also capturing candid moments that we’ll cherish forever. His calm, professional presence made us feel completely at ease, and the final gallery exceeded every expectation.
If you’re looking for timeless, stunning photography and a true professional who goes above and beyond, Justin is it. Highly, highly recommend!
Below is the message I sent to Justin the day after I got married. I feel as though I cannot say this enough: USE JUSTIN FOR YOUR WEDDING DAY!!!!
J, I truly am at a loss for word...
s on how to thank you.
From the moment you showed up, you were nothing short of happy and calm. Having such a chill personality, let alone as a wedding photographer, allowed the rest of us to feel so relaxed. Never, not a single moment during the day, did we feel rushed, and most of that credit goes to you.
Throughout the day you were checking in on me, asking me “how ya doin girl?” And each time meant more than the last. You were someone I felt calm and comfortable around. I knew you had my back.
Every person in our families has said “Justin is a great guy. He was wonderful” Your professionalism and kindness was noticed by everyone, and it’s really all I can talk about. You are f-ing awesome.
Thank you for genuinely making my (our) wedding day that much better. I just keep thinking, “I could not have picked a better photographer.”
If you’re looking for a passionate photographer look no further. JT and his team did an incredible job photographing our wedding. In fact, JT brought along an extra assistant on ou...
r day so we had a total of 3 people in his group. Each and every person was friendly, professional and most importantly an amazing photographer. They were able to capture the big moments, but never overlooked the small ones too. JT was extremely responsive and thorough in answering all of our thousands of questions. He helped us with our wedding day timeline and even took time out of his day to drive around the area we were having our ceremony to look for the best place to take photos. JT also did an amazing job with our engagement photos. He braved the chilly January weather to do a full 3+ hour shoot for us across many locations in Saratoga Springs. JT and his team also were friends with our videographer and DJs, which made the coordination between all of them seamless, which we definitely appreciated. JT will work incredibly hard for you as he did for us and you will be blown away with the end product. He may even give you his heated vest on a chilly day when you’re in between shooting photos.
We hired Justin for our 01/13/24 wedding. Justin is such a phenomenal photographer and makes you feel so comfortable, even with someone who doesn’t like taking pictures. He truly ...
knows exactly what to say and knows the important moments to capture. He is so meticulous and thorough with his work and is down to do whatever is needed to get the perfect shot, even if that means putting on muck boots and jumping into a creek in January! We can not recommend Justin enough!! 10/10! 5 stars!!
If you are looking for an amazing photographer for your wedding, your search has ended. Justin is everything we could have asked for. He picked the perfect place for our engagement...
photos and he went above and beyond to capture great photos on our wedding day. He is a great person to work with.
We can’t say enough good things about JTP. From day one, Justin felt like family. He has a clear passion for his work, and we feel incredibly lucky to have worked with him. We chos...
e him for his photography style but write this review today because of his personality and work ethic. Justin will do anything possible to not only get the shot, but make you feel comfortable doing so. We were definitely awkward don’t-know-how-to-pose people at first, but not even halfway into our engagement shoot Justin had us twirling and posing like naturals. All the credit goes to him. He continued to make us feel like his only clients, even though we know how incredibly busy he and his talented team are.
On wedding day, JT, Kayla, and Amber worked flawlessly with anything we threw their way. They knew how to work with the little kids, never got in the way of anything, yet somehow captured everything we wanted and more. Major props for working so professionally with our separately-hired videographer team too. Justin wasn’t focused on making sure HE had the best shot, but making sure that we as the couple had the best memories. If that meant offering a shot or idea to the videographers, he did it. The whole day was nothing short of perfection and we attribute a lot of that to how JT organized the experience and made us feel like rockstars. If we ever have another reason to hire a photographer, we know who to call.
Justin was an incredible photographer from start to finish. A wedding day is an incredibly long marathon, and Justin and his assistant Eric handled it seamlessly without missing a ...
beat. Justin arrived at the wedding day early, made our friends and family feel incredibly welcome and comfortable, and captured every special moment perfectly. We had huge families and parties to accommodate, and Justin and Eric did not flinch at the task. If you are reading this and have not inquired with Justin yet re: your special day, do IT! I am so happy we had him on our team to make our special day even better. Thank you, JT! We have so much love for you <3
JT is absolutely amazing and we would recommend him to anyone! His talent, knowledge, and experience made the shoot easy and fun. Professional from the beginning and made us feel v...
ery comfortable the whole time. He was flexible and communicative throughout the entire process, and we cannot wait for the wedding shoot!
How could I fit everything I need to say into 3400 characters?! If a picture is worth 1000 words, then Justin’s pictures are worth 1000 novels. I can’t imagine our pictures turning...
out better! They captured our wedding day and our personalities perfectly. I am so glad we went with JT. He was kind, flexible, and open to talking through every step of the planning process and the day itself. We had such a good time taking photos with him and I’m so thankful to have them all to remind James and I of this special day. Even months later JT is still interested in how we are doing. He is so compassionate, and it shows in his photos. I would absolutely recommend him. You won’t regret it. JT, thank you for everything!
Justin is such a pleasure to work with!! We recently had our engagement photos taken by Justin and we are overwhelmed and in awe of how amazing they turned out! The actual shoot it...
self was such a fun day and Justin made it truly memorable. In addition to being extremely friendly and professional, Justin is timely in all communication responses and genuinely cares about the quality of his work and happiness of his customers. We cannot wait to have Justin photograph our wedding; I am certain that the photos will be stunning! Please consider booking Justin as your photographer!!
My fiancé and I recently had our engagement photos done with Justin. We can’t possibly say enough positive things about our experience.
At the start of our shoot, I was painfully...
awkward and nervous to be in front of the camera, Justin was so amazing with making us both feel comfortable and by the end we were both relaxed and confident in front of the camera! His energy to get the best shots was beyond compare- you can tell Justin really cares about taking beautiful photos and was always searching for the next beautiful photo and spot. Although we just took our photos yesterday we couldn’t wait to tell others how wonderful our experience was!
If you are need of a photographer book Justin Tibbits now! He’s simply the best, kindest and most talented photographer around! We are even more excited to have him apart of our team for our wedding in October 2021.
My husband and I have had the pleasure of working with Justin for the past 5 years!From our engagement photos, to wedding photos and now maternity photos. Looking back he truly cap...

Justin did an amazing and beautiful job with our engagement photo session! We couldn’t have asked for more. He genuinely cares about getting the best photos possible and it was suc...
h a quick turn around in receiving the edited photos on an online gallery. We are very much looking forward to having him be apart of our special day next year!
We needed to have some engagement photos done at a rather unpleasant time in the year in terms of weather. We reached out to Justin and he had no issues with shooting in the cold! ...
Justin even brought us hand warmers. His knowledge in posing us for photos was impressive. We were surprised how many different spots and takes we did in our session. It was really above and beyond our expectations. Once we got our photos a very short time later, we were blown away with the quality of the photos and editing. It is easy to say that we would strongly recommend Justin for anyone’s wedding, engagement, or lifestyle photo needs. Thanks again Justin!!
Justin is the absolute best. Our engagement shoot was everything we hoped for and more. He was so attentive and never ever settled he always wanted to get every shot just perfect a...
nd stopped at nothing less. I can’t wait for our wedding. I would recommend him over and over again. He also made my fiancé and I so comfortable and it was so fun!

Justin came recommended to use from a friend who had him as a photographer for her own wedding. When my (now) husband and I met with Justin, we immediately thought he was the right...
fit for us! Justin is easy to talk to, super energetic and made us feel comfortable! He had great ideas for our engagement shoot and took the most beautiful pictures the day of. Justin listened to what shots we wanted and made sure to get in all of the group photos we had been looking for. The photo booth was a huge hit and the quality of the photo booth photos is one of the best I've seen from weddings! We chose a package with an album and we are so glad that we did. The album that Justin created for us is absolutely amazing, the quality is fantastic and we've looked at it again and again. Justin was the perfect photographer for our perfect day, and we'd recommend him to all couples looking for the best of the best!
Justin did an incredible job with both our engagement and wedding photos. He even worked with our (not always cooperative) dog to help get great shots. When I freaked out because ...
my hair and makeup team bailed a month before the wedding he even went above and beyond and helped try to find me someone else. Our wedding photos were absolutely beautiful. They took quite a while to get, but were definitely worth the wait. My mother cried looking at our wedding album!
Justin is absolutely amazing and made capturing our Engagement and Wedding a wonderful experience! He is very easy to talk to and makes you feel extremely comfortable while shootin...
g. I would 100% recommend him to anyone who is looking for a professional, down to earth, and talented photographer.
Justin was over the top amazing. From our engagement photos to the day of the wedding and the planning in between he did an awesome job! Justin and his team made our wedding day go...
seamlessly! They all had great personalities which made it even better. Our guests loved the photo booth and being able to instantly receive their photo! I 100% recommend Justin and his team and would choose them over and over again!
Justin and his whole team worked my entire wedding day, in the freezing cold, barely stopping to eat, to make sure I got every shot I wanted (and some I didn't even know I wanted!)...
He made me feel so comfortable and beautiful! Looking over his shoulder at some of his shots took my breath away! His prices are beyond fair for the talent he brings to the table. We used him for the entire day, including photobooth. (100% worth it - everyone had a blast!)I've used photobooths as a guest at other weddings and they were dark and cramped and not much fun, but not Justin's! His are big and bright and have a fantastic backdrop - they make everyone look amazing and the props kept it busy all night!
As a nervous bride, I hesitated with so many decisions, but Justin made me so sure of my choice and trust in him since the first minute we met. He is second to none. His shots make you look glowing and beautiful even before your makeup is on! My sister hired Elario and my pics are still waaay better!!!! Hire him, you will not regret it! This guy thinks of everything - he even gave all the bridesmaids standing in dresses outside hand warmers so they would stay toasty and keep smiling! Seriously, stop searching - this is your photographer.
UPDATED: Our wedding pictures were wonderful! From start to finish, the day went smoothly and was stress free. We didn't feel rushed by Justin. Justin and Megan worked well tog...
ether and interacted well with our guests. The pictures and products we purchased were high quality. We would recommend this company to anyone that wants to have quality pictures to remember their special day.
------------------------------------------
We recently hired Justin as our photographer for our September 2015 wedding and had our engagement photos taken in October. The E-Shoot definitely helped us become comfortable in front of the camera and with Justin. Justin is creative and has great vision for area's that would create beautiful scenery. Today I was able to view all of the pictures from the shoot, and there was over 100! The color and resolution is amazing as well as the thought he took when editing the photos. I have no doubt that I am going to love all of my wedding photos and that is one less thing to worry about on the big day!
