y got closer and even after the wedding regarding our wedding photos. As someone who is camera shy, the photographer Doug and videographer Mike made me feel so comfortable! Thank you Abacus Studios for capturing our memorable moments!!

than a month after our wedding. We are so happy with the whole Abacus Photography team. Alex was great at calming our nerves and getting everything set up on the planning side and Doug & Mike just are amazing photographers. Thank you for everything!

d had great ideas on picture locations. Would recomend them to everyone

we decided we needed it. On the day of, we worked with Douglas (Doug) who was simply incredible. He worked to get tons of pictures before the ceremony to give us a chance to mingle during cocktail hour while he also got some great photos of our special guests. He posed us in great positions and in front of great scenery — a complete expect in getting great shots. He worked so hard for such a long time and when we got our pictures it was so clear that not only does he know what he’s doing but he’s also so dedicated in capturing the beauty and joy of the special day. We truly could not be happier with our pictures.. and we have Alex, Doug and Abacus Studios in general to thank for that! Totally recommend them!!

th their professionalism, responsiveness and commitment to us. It has been very stressful to plan a wedding throughout the pandemic but they have been so easy to work with and always so responsive to any needs or questions we had. Highly recommend!

or their perfect service! It couldn't have been better!

he right positioning in his photography as well as perfect timing of the right light needed in photos. Furthermore, Abacus Studios promptly returned with the carefully edited finished photos. Consequently, making the next steps in my wedding planning a breeze. We absolutely adore the photographs, we highly Highly HIGHLY recommend Abacus Studios.

our wedding we’re such amazing team. They made me and my husband so relaxed and had us laughing. I love all the pictures Doug took I can’t stop looking at our photos. I can’t wait to see what our video looks like. My husband said when we do our big church ceremony he wants to use Doug and Mike again because he had so much with them.

me I had a concern and contacted the studio, I received a response in less than a day. Everyone was super professional and I can’t express my gratitude enough. Thank you Douglas and Abacus Studios for making our day so special!

her were east to talk and very friendly with everyone even the kids. They made our day extra special!

on, and super quick follow up to every question we sent his way (which was a lot!). He also made the one year covid postponement process a breeze, which was so appreciated during that stressful rescheduling period. Juan Carlos (JC) was our wedding photographer and he was amazing! My now husband I are usually self-conscious in photos, but JC had a way of putting us at ease and making the experience so fun. He had a great eye for capturing beautiful shots, shared some of what he was taking with us throughout the day, and was great at giving direction when needed. We also loved his positive and happy energy!

took a large variety of amazing photos. He was clear with his directions for poses and open to any ideas that we suggested. We got the photos so soon after the wedding and love them so much. We have tons to choose from for our album. Overall, we had a great experience and they worked with our budget.

very quick to respond with everything and so helpful. Everything was great and professional!

im anytime with a question and spend a half an hour just talking. It was like having a friend do your photography. JC was our photographer the day of the wedding and he was on point! Got great shots of us and our family and was willing to photograph anything-even me with my dress on my head while my bridesmaids were trying to bustle my dress. Our big reception is next year, and already booked Abacus to continue the photo shoot, and we have requested JC. Highly recommend this photographer!!

the wedding day, the process was just EASY ! Doug was our photographer on our wedding day, he made us feel so comfortable and it was just effortless ! We had no idea on how to pose but he helped us. These people that LOVE their job is exactly what you want on your BIG day ! I will refer Abacus Studio and Photography to anyone that asks ! Thanks again !!!

ome up with a package to fit our budget. I knew we would he in great hands with any of his photographers. He paired us with JC by my request after looking at his portfolio online. On the day of our wedding JC was amazing. He gave us a lot of ideas for some shots that turned out great! Bridal party jumping in the air and my husband dipping me for a kiss were 2 shots we wouldn't have thought of on our own. JC has great energy and a really good eye for capturing these special moments. Thank you Abacus!

ul! I can't wait to see the whole video, just the sneak peak was amazing! Alex, you were so flexible moving the dates around. We had to postpone because of covid but Alex made it so smooth for us! The team did an excellent job with showing up on time and communication was great! Doug called me twice 2 weeks before the wedding and then a week prior to make sure we were still on the same page with everything. Thanks again! Our wedding day felt like a DREAM! I highly recommend Abacus Studio!

d relax durn the pictures. Alex right from the start was great, he explained everything to us and even worked with our budget. Honestly, my husband and I will be using Alex and his team for every event we have going forward! The quality of their work is great but his team is even better! If you’re looking for photographer and videographers book them ASAP you will not regret it!!!

t you to understand how truly impacted my husband and I were after having him as our photographer. JC arrived early to our hotel to set up and confirm all details for the day. He was full of energy, life, and passion the ENTIRE 10 hours! JC was EXACTLY what we were looking for in a photographer. He was not only taking photos, he was our second Maitre D, always making sure we had everything we needed while making us smile laugh and feel like a King and Queen. I have been to a lot of weddings in my day, and I can say I have never seen a better photographer than JC. Absolutely fantastic. I cannot wait to get access to our online gallery and see all of the wonderful pics he took. Priceless. Thank you, JC, and Abacus studios for making this the best day of our lives!

olonial Park in Franklin, NJ and it was perfect. We are so happy with our pictures because they came out perfect. Overall, it was a great experience and we are very confident that we chose the right photographer to capture our special day.

cannot tell you how comfortable they made us feel. Alex right from the start was great, he explained everything to us and even worked with our budget. The first event we worked with Lynette on photo and Mike on video and those two gave us so much direction and went along with every last minute idea we had and it was great! The second event I had Doug and Mike again. They were amazing as well. Honestly, my husband and I will be using Alex and his team for every event we have going forward! The quality of their work is great but his team is even better! If you’re looking for photographer and videographers book them ASAP you will not regret it!!!

of a neurotic bride and he just talked me through each and every step. His photographers are professional and kind and truly the best of the best. We had both a photo and video package! We had Doug and Joseph on photos and they were truly amazing. We also had John on video and he truly kept me calm and smiling through the whole thing. he just kept saying things to make me smile and laugh and I have no doubt he is the reason the video is going to be amazing!! DO NOT WASTE ANOTHER SECOND, GO SIGN WITH ALEX AND HIS GROUP TODAY!!!

out and was just a pleasure to work with!Our wedding day photos and video came out beautifully! All of our guests commented on how skilled both Doug and Michael were. They captured every special moment and meet us comfortable on a day full of emotions! Hands down the best photographer and videographer I ever could of asked for!

can understand what kind of images you are looking for. (For example - We requested a b&w/ silhouette shot and we got it). There is also a work sheet for the video portion which included requests for background songs. Alex was able to work with us and our budget and we were able to get exactly what we wanted and more - his understanding and assistance during less than ideal circumstances is something we're so grateful for. For our day of shooter we chose JC! We loved his sample album and the shots he took. He really utilizes all areas of a space (venue/church/etc). He also speaks Spanish which was helpful for my new family. =) JC took some amazing color photos, knew which images to put into B&W and was creative despite the fact that it was RAINING HEAVILY ALL DAY!!! As we walked back to our limo he had me hold the skirt of my dress while my husband held an umbrella and got a kissing shot. He also took advantage of the pillars outside of the church. Before moving from one shoot to another JC always asked if we were happy with what we did or if we wanted more. Our videographer was great and not at all invasive. I nearly forgot he was there at times. The video and images are available on the Abacus website (password protected) thumb drive and CD - which are sent right to your house. You will not be disappointed with Abacus! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!! J&A

t of communication he provides. He was able to secure our spot in a timely fashion. Leading up to the wedding, we emailed back and forth. We were able to send him a few inspiration shots we saw online so that our photographer, Doug, could capture the style and moments that were important to us. On the day of, Doug arrived early and started taking photos right away. He made sure that we got all of the family shots that we wanted and captured the essence of our relationship as husband and wife. I will recommend Alex and his team to anyone who is in need of stellar photography in the future!

of "you must have this and you must have that." JC took amazing wedding photos that will last a lifetime. Highly recommended. Thank you Alex and JC.

of days as well.

o those fun and special moments when you least expect it. Another note, every person I’ve encountered who works at Abacus has this amazingly calm and positive way about them so if you’re perhaps feeling a bit jittery about a special day, they certainly have a way to ease any nerves & help things go very smoothly. Great business with a lot of experience and wonderful staff that are simply the BEST!!

th him. We were very impressed with everything. He showed us all the different options & services they provided and discussed cost and what each package would entail. Alex was also very accommodating as we had to bring our young daughter to the meeting, which was a huge plus for us. We decided to go with photography & the photo booth. We then met Doug, our photographer, for our engagement shoot. We found a park & hockey rink not too far out from where we live to do the pictures at. Doug got some amazing shots. Alex kept in touch as we were planning our wedding, he answered whatever questions came up during the process. A week or so before the wedding, Doug called and verified times & addresses to ensure he had everything written down. He got so many amazing pictures the day of our wedding. He perfectly captured my husband and our daughters “first look” as well as some amazing candid pictures. The photo booth was a big hit with everyone at our reception. We received our online gallery about a week after our wedding & the high resolution images on a USB two and a half weeks after our wedding. I would absolutely recommend Abacus Studios to everyone.

elpful when it came to helping us arrange our timeline for the wedding day. Doug was our main photographer who did our engagement shoot and wedding and his team and videographer were just as great. PLUS we received our pictures and raw video less than 2 weeks after the wedding. And they were beautiful.

my questions promptly and expertly. The day-of was smooth and the photographers were great. We didn’t even know they were there. We are very pleased with our photos. We would have liked some more formal shots of us as well as more of ones of us with our guests. They also did a lot of shots from straight on and underneath which made a lot of the candid shots of us not as flattering as they could have been if they had been shot from a higher angle. We also didn’t have any photos of late in the evening of the dessert area. We got our proofs within 2 weeks- super prompt and professional. So all in all I would highly recommend them- they were excellent!!!!

e owner is so down to earth! I would highly recommend them.

quickly. He was always so very kind and helpful with everything. He set up the photo booth and made sure we were all set with the videographer. Doug was our photographer and he was such a joy to work with. We first met doing an engagement shoot summer of 2017. We really enjoyed getting to know him and working with him. By the time our wedding came around, he was very comfortable with us and knew what we wanted. I couldn't have been more pleased with how everything turned out. 5 stars, 10 out of 10, grade A group of people. Book them while you can!

ng the formal photos, which is good because we had no idea how to stand some of the time. He got some great candid shots during the wedding and reception that we will cherish forever. We also loved having the photo booth at our reception, everyone took a turn, even my husband's grandma took a few turns. Alex was very responsive with our questions whenever we reached out and helpful throughout the process. However, our contract had many misspellings and each time we got an invoice, the numbers were incorrect and we had to reach out to have the numbers corrected. This was very frustrating as we had to keep a close eye to make sure we were paying the correct amounts each time, and we already had enough on our plates with the wedding planning. Then, when we got our DVDs with the pictures, the letter had a different couple's name and photographer name, so we quickly checked the DVDs to make sure they were our pictures, which luckily they were. While it was only a simple error, it is a level of unprofessionalism that makes you feel as if you are just a form letter instead of a client. Overall, our experience was good and we are extremely happy with our pictures and with how the day went. Thank you Abacus Studios and Doug!

(in which we were not familiar with the area) and Doug helped us with directions while we were driving to the location. We were also late and Doug had no problem waiting for us as we sat in traffic. He was very knowledgeable of the best places to take pictures and what poses looked beat and our engagement pictures came out flawless. You will not find a better photographer☺️. I highly recommend them.

ard or uncomfortable during any shots, it looked very natural in the pictures. We are really impressed and are looking forward to our wedding day with Abacus for both photography and videography!

act. He was quick to respond, extremely friendly, and very helpful. He even acted as our photo booth attendant, and our guests had a great time! Michelle took amazing photos, which we just got to see today. They took my breath away, and I couldn't stop smiling looking through them! John was our videographer. He was very friendly and unobtrusive. We cannot wait to see our video and relive what was a perfect day! We would HIGHLY recommend Abacus Studios!

mazing. I would not go anywhere else for my professional photography needs!

inding about two years prior we had engagement photos done with Michele. She is fabulous. We did them at Watchung Reservation. It was almost like hiking with another one of our bestfriends. She was so good capturing us and our dog so that we could use them for save the dates. For the wedding Michele called about a week prior letting me know she looked through all my pinterest boards and lists on exactly what we wanted. The day of the wedding she showed up prompt and excited to photograph our day. She is more then just a photographer. More like another bridesmaid. There was a mishap with my dress and one of the clips broke. She was there with my mom holding my dress together while my mom sewed it together. No other photographer would probably be there to help like that. At the church she made taking photos after the ceremony a breeze so we could quickly be on our way to our venue. She is simply amazing. Was able to capture the entire day and I only needed one photographer. She even stayed past her 8hr call because the cake cutting didnt happen yet. She is over the top amazing and Abacus studios should be your top choice for your wedding and other photo needs. Our wedding photos we received about ten days after the wedding which is very prompt. They are also local. Alex who owns the company is fabulous as well. Very very personable and responds quickly to emails and phone calls. Literally any concern we had was taken care of in a timely manner. Highly Highly Recommend

aver for my zipper on my wedding dress and my husband's shoe laces. The best part was within a week after our wedding, abacus studio sent the digital copy of all our pictures. They look amazing!

l with getting ready. I felt like she was one of my bridesmaids! The photos came out unbelievably beautiful. We had a wedding at the Jersey shore, and the beach shots are exactly what I imagined! I cannot say enough good things about this photography group!
