Prestige Barkley photographic design

s to learn their style and have a more personal relationship with our photographers. We even got to include our dog and little toddler in the photos. When it came to wedding day Chris and John were all over the venue getting every shot without being obtrusive. We asked a lot of them during the reception and they definetly delivered. The photos were ready about a month after the wedding and they all came out so great! We would highly recommend Prestige Barkley for your photography needs!

ur engagement photo day was a less then desirable day in April and the photos came out STUNNING, on our wedding day John (and our second photographer Joe) were efficient and fast with the formal photos helping everyone pose and working so hard! But they got so many photos I didn’t even realize the day of, I didn’t even notice them around taking photos- our families loved them we loved them they were just so amazing. And our pictures are stunning and beyond perfect I would recommend Prestige/Barkley a million times I am so happy we went with them I will treasure these photos forever

up with a contract specific to what my husband and I wanted for our wedding. John did our engagement photos in June of 2021. He did AMAZING. He helped to pose us and make us feel comfortable every step of the way. On our wedding day (August 2022) John and Joe did our photography and far exceeded our expectations. The quality of the photos were incredible but they got shots we had no idea they were able to get! They were never in the way and whenever we needed them for photos, they were always easy to find. John and Joe from Prestige/Barkley are hands down the best wedding photographers.

our best friend when you left! You are truly amazing and we are so grateful for making the day so special. When the church was being rude and shut the lights off on us, you not only made it work, but took some extremely creative images. We are so proud of the work you did for us. If you ever need a volunteer, please let us know. We simply love you!!!!

of us and guests that enable us to relive all the moments of our special day! The weather was a little rainy and overcast, but John was able to use that to get the most amazing photos of the happiest day of our lives!!

time due to Covid-19 and he was very accommodating to our needs. On our wedding day he was prepared with a game plan and was able to capture all of our great moments exactly how we wanted. The photos came out great with a quick turnaround time. We would absolutely do business with John and Prestige Barkley again!

ed with me and got one of John's close colleagues and friend to do my wedding and it was perfect. Prestige Barkley handled everything else from creating the perfect list of photos to be done at the wedding, to making recommendations and responding quickly to all my questions. They are professional and very friendly. I would highly recommend them. You won't be disappointed.

which made the planning process extremely easy for us. We love the quality and and overall vision of our wedding photos and highly recommend Prestige Barkley!

that we might not get the photos we wanted because of daylight Every shot was amazing. He is a master at his craft. Our friends also used him and there pictures are also beautiful. Pricing is very comparable to others competitors but there is no comparing the art. John has an eye like non other. I would highly recommend Prestige/Barkley for your special day !!!

ion to tour the area and get a lay of the land. John genuinely cared about what we wanted and how we wanted our day captured. The pictures were immaculate and beyond our wildest imagination. Never once did we feel stressed and his passion for his profession is unmatched. We highly recommend John and Prestige Barkley to anyone and everyone looking for high quality, caring, beautifully artistic a photo.

many great group shots, action photos, scenery, everything. They truly make me re-live the day and melt my heart. We could not be happier with how they turned out. Thanks again for capturing our perfect day in a perfect way. John is truly a master of his craft.

skilled Individuals, both technically & artistically. We had torrential rain that day and we still had stunning photos!! They were incredibly organized (despite the complicated logistics of the wedding) & so attentive to the details, and very responsive to the needs of the newlyweds (and our large families). John was just delightful & untiring in taking photos for many many hours and Patricia, as creative director, was invaluable in providing much-needed guidance and recommendations for the artistic elements as well as always being available as a resource for us. I just can’t say enough about them and would highly recommend them without any reservations.

or us along with the bridal party. He made it fun and was efficient so we didn’t have to spend the whole time taking photos. It was a great experience.

sional and is extremely passionate about what he is doing. Patricia did an excellent job of staying in contact with us and responding promptly to all emails. I would highly recommend them if you want amazing wedding photos!!!!

s were beautiful and captured the moment. Patricia is a graphic designer by training and put together a gorgeous album for us. They are a dream team, and I highly recommend them.

w-husband and I, he’s happy to direct you and do everything to make you feel comfortable. Our photos came out amazing! We got married at Waters Edge in Westbrook and we snuck away from the reception for a few minutes at sunset to do photos on the beach, and they ended up being our favorites! I never would have thought of that. We also had a guest who was getting in the way with his own camera a lot, and John handled it really well, he was very professional at every step.

John was wonderful. We spoke beforehand regarding what photos we were sure we wanted done no matter what and John and his team made that happen on the day of. His sense of humor was perfect throughout our special day, even in hectic moments. Patricia was wonderful to work with afterward on designing our wedding album. She was so organized and clear with what we had to do and gave wonderful suggestions. She was unbelievably patient with us despite how long we took to make final decisions and even helped my husband surprise me with our final version of our wedding album. Thank you , John and Patricia, for being part of our wedding experience and making it wonderful!

icia, to the photographs - everything was wonderful. John clearly loves what he does and was so helpful in planning and getting all the pictures we wanted - and capturing all those candid moments that really make the day! Patricia communicated everything to us all along the process, completely taking the stress out! And the album she created at the end was just beautiful. The special effects and backgrounds made for a stunning album. I hope we have a chance to work with John and Patricia again someday!!

he wedding I receieved so many compliments about John and his partner. My guests were amazed at how they nevered stopped moving and they were everywhere that night and captured every moment. I would highly recommend them!

o anyone. I was truely impressed.

that day and how much he enjoyed his work. They're simply amazing and have exceeded every vision I had in my head.

from our day. We would definitely recommend him to anyone looking. He was great for engagement photos also and was easy to schedule with and had us feeling the love during all our shoots! We love John!!

ricia is an enthusiastic and knowledgeable resource. We are in love with the album they just created for us. Trust John and Patricia to preserve your memories. You'll be amazed with the creativity and artistic vision they will bring to your special day.

out something Patricia was always quick to respond. And John is a 12 on a 10-point scale of hardcore - driven, passionate about his work, but above all else completely dedicated to making our wedding night so much more than just a special moment in the books. Our ceremony and reception were in the late evening but that didn't stop John from taking absolutely GORGEOUS pictures, even in just outdoor moonlight. When it came to arranging us for various photos, we let him use his discretion most of the time and we had no problem following his lead, and he happily took our requests as well. We got our photos back and there wasn't a single photo we didn't absolutely love. When someone talks about an image being burned into their memory, these photos are the kind that will do that (can confirm)! Highly recommend them for anyone at any event!

cess and right away I could tell we were working with a true professional! When we met John for our engagement photos it was amazing to see his artistic mind at work, getting both posed and cadid photos that were stunning! We knew we made the best choice for our wedding photographer. Then there's Patricia...the cherry on top! She made the planning process a breeze and thought of so many things I would have missed. She detailed the entire day so there would be no surprises. She truly takes all the stress out of such an important piece of the wedding. When the day finally arrived is was as if John was 3 photographers in 1. He was everywhere, but somehow blended in and got every planned picture and then some. The guests commented on how great he was all day! We couldn't be happier with the results and have the best pictures to cherish forever. John and Patricia are a great team, and I highly recommend them for your special day. You will not be disappointed.

out what the plan was. Patricia was quick to respond and very helpful. John was so fun and a great addition to the wedding! He stayed later because we weren't done with everything that we wanted photographed which was awesome! The pictures came out great!! So many different ones that were beautiful and different! So happy we went with them and would hire them again in a heartbeat!

spent far more time than she had planned speaking with my husband and I about the details of our wedding, making sure every idea, request, and concern was addressed. John goes above and beyond. All the way from standing in the middle of a busy street, laying on the ground, or doing magic tricks to make the kids smile, just to gt the perfect shot. We fully endorse them without any reservation.

thinks the shot will be worth it. The photos they delivered to us were incredible, and we can't wait to see our album.

tures from that party are still hanging on my wall and they bring back great memories. Most recently John (and Patricia) were my daughter’s wedding photographer. When I reached out to Patricia to see if they were available, I was very happy to learn they were. Their wedding venue was also happy we were using Prestige Barkley because they have worked with them at many other weddings. One week before the wedding, Patricia sets up either an in-person meeting or phone call to talk about your wedding day. She has a list of questions to review with you which includes your expectations, requested pictures and specific people to focus on. After years of experience, Patricia had suggestions for items we never thought about and we trusted she and John to make my daughter and her new husband’s special day perfect. We were not disappointed. The day of the wedding, John arrived at our home and made the morning fun. He left for the church before us so that the men in the bridal party would have photographs taken and was there waiting when we arrived at the church. John was with us the entire day and added to the fun of the day. We never felt like we were continually posing for pictures. He took a lot of action shots that when reviewing after the wedding brought a smile to our faces. John felt like part of our family unlike a lot of other photographers that are lacking in personality and make you feel awkward. He was always near my daughter and her new husband making sure he captured the most precious moments. The pictures are beautiful; we will have those memories forever. I would recommend Prestige Barkley for any of your upcoming events. We used them for a wedding, anniversary party and corporate portraits and have always been completely satisfied.

r 3 children. (The most recent was in May of 2017). Their work is beautiful, and they are a pleasure to work with. Being a repeat client says it all.

cient and her work on the albums I've seen looks gorgeous. John was accommodating in scheduling our first meeting and each time we spoke I was even happier to be working together. John has fantastic talent, skill and experience. He was able to suggest, direct and adapt to our preferences and requests. The wedding day was rainy, space and time were tight and John made it all happen beautifully! His ability to swing with circumstances and his confidence that we were getting great shots put us at ease. John was a huge asset to our wedding day - I'd work with him any and every chance I get. I recommend him in the biggest way!

restige Barkley was professional, sincere, and genuine. John and Patricia are a phenomenal team and truly compliment one another. John has a fantastic eye and can adapt to any situation or person. My wedding party and guests who interacted with John were all impressed by his ability to make people feel comfortable which resulted amazing photos that we will cherish. Patricia is detail oriented, organized and prompt. I feel so fortunate to have selected Prestige Barkley to capture my wedding day!

are extremely professional, sweet, and knowledgeable. John was so helpful and accessible throughout the entire planning process and very accommodating with last minute changes. So easy to work with and our wedding would not have been the same without them. Thank you, Prestige/Barkley photographic design. I recommend them to everyone who looks for perfection.

nable, professional, creative, and fun to work with. Patricia was incredibly well organized and easy to communicate with. They created a package for us that completely catered to our needs and budget, making the entire process stress free, and all they did for us went above and beyond what was outlined in our contract. We were most impressed with John’s hard work and professionalism on the day of our wedding. Not only does he have fantastic vision for his work, but he goes above and beyond in handling every detail of the day – we had last minute threats of inclement weather, changes to our schedule, etc. – and John handled everything with ease. He put more time, effort, and heart into our photos than we ever could have imagined, and we felt as though he was a tremendous support for us throughout the entire day. I was a pretty stressed out bride, but he put me at ease! He was the most valuable of all of the venders we hired, and so many of our guests have commented on how hard working he was and how fabulous the photos are. We are incredibly happy with the final product of our photos, and recommend Prestige Barkley with complete confidence.

e photos I have in my home taken by John. Patricia's eye for design is impeccable.

ng for. He also has a really great creative eye and gets a ton of shots that I would never have thought of. Patricia has also been really really great to work with - she has been super responsive and has answered all of my questions promptly and thoroughly. We REALLY enjoyed working with them and you will you!

lity to make you feel perfectly at ease when doing something that most people don't often do. I have spoken about him and his wife to everyone who will listen.

exactly what we were looking for. He made sure all of our most important pictures were captured beautifully and he also got so many great candid shots we never could have anticipated. His experience and great sense of humor made our day extra special. John worked quickly and non-stop all day. Thank you John and Patricia for being such a pleasure to work with, laughing with us and capturing our precious memories so elegantly. We would recommend you without hesitation! Sincerely, Bob and Stephanie
