About John Barone Photography

John Barone Photography

Owner

I began my photo career in the commercial world. I photographed for many ad agencies, fashion clients and magazines. When I segued into the wedding world, I brought that style of fashion photography and lighting with me.

I truly feel that relationships are key to excellent photos. My clients become my friends, leading up to, during, and after their weddings. I don't ever want to work with a couple that refers to me as their photographer. I want them to drop the formal vendor/client wall. I'm just John and we are gonna have fun. I promise.

Absolutely blown away by our experience with John. From the very first conversation to getting our photos back, everything was seamless, professional, and honestly better than we could have imagined. John made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera, captured every emotion so naturally, and somehow documented all the big moments and the quiet, in-between ones we didn’t even realize were happening. The photos are timeless, emotional, and full of life—we’ll treasure them forever. Beyond his incredible talent, John was organized, calm, and such a grounding presence on a hectic day. Most importantly, we truly gained a friend through this process. We can’t wait for all of life’s next big moments so we can hire him again. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares and knows how to tell a story through photos, stop looking—we cannot recommend John highly enough.
John & Crew are THE BEST.

I cannot say enough good things about working with John Barone and his 2nd photographer Stef. The booking process was beyond smooth (make sure you snag him super early!! John books up fast - and for good reason) John made sure to set up a video call with us before we even signed a contract to make sure we aligned on the direction we were looking for. On the day of our wedding, both John and Stef showed up early and got straight to work. They both kept us on schedule but making sure to include all shots that we had asked for. John would show me previews right off of his camera - even before the editing, the shots were turning out incredible. We really enjoyed their vibes throughout the whole day and night - so funny and down to earth, while remaining professional and getting the job done quick and efficiently. All of our guests had nothing but kind words to say about these two. We also had the black and white portrait booth which was AMAZING. Again, nothing but great feedback about this. If we had to re-do this day, we would continue to choose John & Stef over and over and over again. His work is gorgeous and truly invaluable. We owe them our gratitude forever - they really captured our day in the most beautiful way. Thank you guys!!!!

It's taken me a while to write my review, because since we received our photos, I've been at a loss for words. My day job is corporate photography, so when booking a wedding photographer, I was incredibly picky. I could not be more impressed with John & Denida's work. From the moment we booked until we left the reception, they were on the ball. From helping us build our timeline, to assisting with "day-of run-of-show", to being a lighthearted and smiling face during the (sometimes) chaos of our wedding day, they were invaluable in more ways than I can mention. Of course, I was not so patiently waiting for the photos to see the end result, and I still (almost 2 months later) don't know what to say. They captured every moment perfectly. Ones I remember with tears of joy, moments I missed, and moments I totally forgot; all captured perfectly. I cannot speak highly enough about John Barone & his team in the text limit Zola provides, but just take a look at his work and you'll see that his pictures are worth a thousand words.

We can’t recommend John Barone Photography enough! From the very first meeting, John stood out. He spent a full hour with us, patiently answering every question, and kept in touch with quick, helpful guidance throughout our planning. Just a few days before our wedding on 5.25.2025, he even reached out on his own to review our schedule, that kind of thoughtfulness gave us so much peace of mind. On our wedding day, John and his second shooter, Denida, were absolutely incredible. They kept everything running smoothly, handled a last-minute big family photo with zero stress, and brought such a calm, positive energy to the day. They even worked magic with the kids in our wedding party - jumping, making funny noises, whatever it took to get those perfect smiles. And the photos…wow. John’s style is stunning. Every shot is vibrant, crisp, and full of life, yet nothing feels staged. The portraits are elegant and cinematic, and the candid moments are pure emotion. He somehow captures the real moments without you even noticing he’s there. Watching our wedding video, we realized John had sprinted across the dance floor to capture the final dip of our first dance, we hadn’t even noticed! He’s a total ninja, and the results speak for themselves. Another thing that makes John truly special: he edits every single photo himself, without AI or third-party editors. While the final gallery might take a little longer to be completed, the time and attention he puts into each image is obvious, every photo is perfectly polished, full of detail, and shows his love for what he does. One of our favorite touches was the black & white set he created for our guests. It was thoughtful, stylish, and our friends and family are still raving about it. We are completely in love with our wedding photos and can’t imagine booking anyone else for future events. John isn’t just a photographer, he’s an organized professional, a true artist, and someone who genuinely cares about the couples he works with. If you want gorgeous photos, a stress-free day, and someone who goes above and beyond in every way, book John Barone Photography, you won’t regret it! Alana & Jason
