J&R Guarino Photography & Video

I don't know where to even begin on how to describe how thankful we were that we chose Rene and her team at J&R Guarino for our most special day!! From the first time I seen Rene's work at a bridal show and her loving personality I knew I had to bring my husband there to meet her! The minute tommy seen her quality of work, her passion in her photography and her patience and willingness to please her clients, we knew we were not walking away with out booking her. Rene allowed us to feel confident and comfortable knowing we made the right choice in photography and videography. We had an absolute blast with her at our engagement shoot, and it gave us the perfect preview of what our wedding dAy and pics would be like. Her creativity and love for her work really has shown through our photographs. It shows she really takes time an pride in her work. We just picked up our wedding photo disc and video from her today and tommy and I couldn't be more happy, excited and truly thankful for the beautiful work she has done for us!! We watched our video twice already and made a pact to watch it each yeAr on our anniversary. Between the beautiful and unique photos and the beautiful job done on our video, Rene and her team have captured every minute of our wedding day! She was such a pleasure to work with!! I would highly recommend J&R Guarino to any bride out there!!! We will be definitely using her again when it comes time for our first baby!!

I honestly don't have enough WONDERFUL things to say bout J&R Guarino! From the first moment I met Rene, I knew that she was exactly who I wanted photographing (and celebrating with us!) at the wedding. They were extremely professional throughout the whole planning process and from the first meeting we had with her, she took care of everything. I didn't have to worry about one single detail. She arrived at my house on the day of the wedding, and was just as excited as we were! On that day, she took pictures so efficiently, so we didn't feel like we spent the whole day "posing" but truly got to enjoy ourselves. She is just a joy to be around, and the love she has for her work, really shows through in everything she does. The pictures were all so BEAUTIFUL! The compliments from friends, family, and complete strangers are unending. Her eye for the "moment" is truly one of a kind and looking at our wedding pictures, brings tears to my eyes as I remember what a special day it was. In Rene, not only did I find the best wedding photographer, but I also found a wonderful friend. I can only hope to work with her again, at special events that life brings us. I would recommend J&R Guarino to absolutely everyone getting married!!!

If you want amazing memories, you will go with J&R! Rene, Steve, and Joe were outstanding! Not only did they take phenomenal photos and do whatever we asked, but Rene also worked with me several times, indefatigably, behind the scenes to help make sure that our day ran smoothly! She is a miracle worker! You will not be steered wrong if you work with J & R!!! :) ... and not to mention, I do NOT know where Rene gets her energy from! She's like a little super hero! :)

My husband and I cannot describe in words how grateful we are for Rene's amazing work. Our wedding pictures came out beautifully. Rene and her crew were professional yet fun from start to finish. They were enjoyable to be around all day (because remember your photographer will be with you ALL day long). They were very time efficient. I told Rene I wanted to join my cocktail hour, and she made that happen with time to spare. She took so many pictures, in a reasonable amount of time, and we didn't feel rushed at all. Rene and the second photographer, Steve, did everything from standing on tables, to laying on floors, to fighting sundown at Liberty State Park in order to get the perfect picture. Rene is passionate about photography. She loves what she does, and it shows through her work. Her photographs are truly beautiful. Charlie, the videographer, didn't miss a beat! He captured some great footage. Rene and her crew are amazing, and I cannot thank them enough for the wonderful job they did. I was very lucky to have Rene and her crew by my side and capturing perfect moments on my wedding day. Every bride and groom would be just as lucky to have J&R Guarino Photography for their magical day!!

Renee and her crew are amazing! So creative and so much fun to work with! Just a few words to describe her work...amazing incredible perfect outstanding. She made our day so special. Couldn't ask for anything more. I'm so happy with the way everything turned out. Love u guys!

Thank you so much for making our wedding such a easy and fun day. Your creativity and attention to detail was amazing. My wife and I can't wait to sit down with you to start putting our pictures together. I will definitely be keeping you in mind for our future events. GREAT JOB !!!

Rene and her team are fantastic. They are fun to work with and really make taking pictures enjoyable. They have such an eye for unique shots and my wedding photos were amazing. I couldn't have been happier with the results. I have gotten so many compliments already about how wonderful the pictures came out. I highly recommend J & R Guarino.

THANK U SO MUCH RENE FOR BEIG EVERYTHING I DREAMED OF AND MORE!!! YOU GUYS ROCK!!!!!!! IF YOUR LOOKING FOR A PHOTOGRAPHER FOR YOUR WEDDING LOOK NO MORE!!!

My husband and I could not have found a more perfect photographer. Our pictures are beyond beautiful! I would reccommend J&R Gaurino to all my friends and family.

Photography is definitely the most important part of the wedding, its the only part (besides the marriage!) that really lasts forever. Capturing my big day definitely meant the most to me. And Rene was able to do that very well. The pre-planning was great with her she's easy to talk to and to get along with, and a ton of fun. Her engagement session was awesome it got us to feel very comfortable with her so we were ready for the wedding day. She had us doing all sots of crazy things that made it a great experience. The wedding day was stress-free and great, she was quick and creative. Her videographer was there throughout the entire event capturing everything for us as well. Once we got the photos back we were so pleased! She has such an artistic touch that makes the photos look beautiful. She can make any bride look like a supermodel!! I am definitely pleased with her work and would recommend her to anyone!

Rene and the rest of her crew was the best choice we made for our wedding.... We could not have asked for a more pleasant, happy, funny, caring accomidating group of people to have take our video and pictures. Rene sets up times to meet with her as many times as youwould like before and AFTER your wedding. She answers all of your questions and understands your concerns as well. She will do anything and everything she can to make your day nothing but FANTASTIC! She took so many pictures for our wedding that it was so hard to choose for our album. VIDEO WAS GREAT! great sound, editing, and we just felt like reliving that night all over again when we watched it.... Another wonderful thing about her is that she continues to have a relationship even AFTER the wedding. WE LOVE J&R GUARINO VIDEO AND PHOTOGRAPHY!!!!!! We are so pleased with all that we got from them EXPECIALLY THE WEDDING DAY EXPERIENCE!!! THANK YOU From the bottom of OUR HEARTS!!!!

Rene takes the most beautiful photographs! I chose her because the photos all had amazing artistic quality to them. She made the day of my wedding so much fun with her great personality. She comes up with creative shots that turn out beautifully. I love my album and all the photos she took! A photographer with a great personality is so important because you end up spending most of your wedding day with her.

Rene is absolutely fabulous! My husband and I have been absolutely blown away by the pictures she took at our wedding. She was extremely easy to work with. She was very flexible and readily available whenever you needed her. Her turn around time on the final product is awesome! We got married on Saturday, July 2, 2011 and we are picking up our proofs CD tomorrow, just 3 weeks after the wedding!!! It was amazing working with Rene, Steve and the video guy Charlie! They are a great team! If we had to do it all over again we would absolutely still choose J&R!!!

The ratings that both my husband and I unanimously agreed to give Rene from J & R Guarino photography cannot fully capture how thrilled we were with choosing her as our photographer. We met Rene at a bridal show at Branches in Long Branch, NJ. Our first impression was great! She was very friendly and her photography was impressive. Because photography was high on our list of things we felt were important for the wedding we did our research and checked out several other photographers, too. But everyone paled in comparison to Rene. When we met with her to discuss the possibility of having her as our photographer she was very welcoming and friendly. She made us laugh and smile. Her photography is clean, fresh and a mixture of posed and candid shots. She really does a great job editing the pictures in a way that enhanced them instead of took away from the original. We left without booking her and on the way home we called to book her because we really would have regretted if someone took her for our day. She gave us a really great deal and helped us stick to our budget. The next meeting was our engagement pictures and we knew she was the best fit for us. My husband is a little camera shy and she could bring out a genuine smile and laugh in front of the camera which I think is difficult to do. It's awkward for someone to take so many pictures and focus just on you but Rene really makes you feel comfortable. We were absolutely thrilled with our engagement session. On our wedding day, Rene brought her A++++ game. We had 2 photographers our wedding day and our wedding was her only wedding that day. We did pictures before hand and she arrived bright and early and on time at 10:30 am. Our photographers worked hard all the way through from the time they arrived, through the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception to the cake cutting. We got our pictures last week and I felt like I got married all over again. Rene captured our entire wedding day in such a beautiful way. From my husband crying as I walked down the altar to every little DIY detail. Getting married to my perfect match was the happiest moment in my life and Rene captured all of it in every picture. Her ability to capture every angle in a fresh, new way is amazing. I could not give a more stellar review about our photographer and if you are looking for someone to capture the love you have at the celebration of your marriage, then meet with her and find out for yourself!

J&R photography/video was simply AMAZING! I can't speak enough on how wonderful Rene and her crew is. Rene works with you in every way whether its picking the right package to fit your financial needs or helping you to make your day even more special then you imagined. We had a large bridal party of over 20 people and Rene and her crew were fantastic at moving people around and on top of it making sure everyone was having a good time. Our church doubled booked two weddings back to back I was concern with this because every bride and groom wants pictures in their church. Rene told me not to worry and that she will make everything work. SHE DID! Even with the wedding after me Rene and her crew got the most AMAZING pictures in our church. Not only do you gain a lifetime of memories but you also gain a wonderful friend.

J&R Guarino Photography was by far the most amazing photographers I could have ever asked for. From the day my now Husband and I met Rene we knew she was the best and the person for us. Her amazing talent and devotion to her customers and her trade are incomparable. From the day we signed our contract she was available to talk with us anytime even if it was just a hello. She was wonderful with working in our budget and her offer to have our family order Gift Certificates for us for my shower and wedding gifts was amazing, we received a wonderful response from that since it was so unique. She made the whole day so easy and fun. Our pictures were available for us to view in less than 2 weeks. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone. I can truly say that after our experience with her my husband and I have truly gained a friend.

Words cannot describe how amazing Rene is and how truly beautiful her work is! It was a blessing for us to find someone who has a true passion and love for what they do and is willing to do whatever you want! Our day was captured in hundreds and hundred of gorgeous and perfect pictures and we now have them for a lifetime thanks to her! We love you Rene!!!

Our wedding was June 4,2011 and Rene was absolutely amazing! My husband and I couldn't ask for a better photographer. Our pictures were absolutely beautiful and blew everyone away. She really puts a lot of pride in her work and trust me it shows in her pictures. I've never met someone who could take a picture of nothing and make it such beautiful art work. Now that is what you call true talent! Rene is very creative and hard working. She acts as though it is her own wedding by making sure everything is perfect. Rene is a great photographer and a great person as well. My husband and I will always be so thankful to her for making our special day even more amazing than we had hoped for!

Rene was awesome! She was so fun and made us feel so comfortable. From our engagement pictures to our final wedding album every experience with J&R was incredible. Our pictures were unique and creative and completely expressed our personalities. Our wedding album can't even compare to others, it's 100% unique! We couldn't be happier with everything J&R did for us. -Jessica and Brian McCutcheon

Our wedding day was May 20, 2011 and i first met Rene about year and half before our wedding date and she is the most personable person i have ever met. She is a true meaning of a professional. Rene is fun, creative, and had great ideas. Our bridal party of 22 people were having a blast with all of Rene's different poses and brought out the inner child in each and every one of us. One of the other things we loved about her was at the reception we had forgotten she was there. Rene, Steve, and the videographer took amazing pictures and footage of the reception also. J&R Guarino Photography & Video were truly a blessing in disguise If you are looking for fun, energetic, unique and creative pictures for your wedding than booking J&R Guarino Photography & Video is a must!!!! Rene we love you and thank you for everything!!!!!!!
