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.

My husband and I looked over an obscene amount of photographers before we thankfully stumbled upon John Barone on The Knot. At the time, we were living in Philadelphia and planning our wedding for where we would be relocating to, just outside of Scranton. John shot our engagement photos in Philadelphia, and he did an incredible job. His personality immediately puts us at ease. This was huge for us because we are not the type of people who are naturals in front of the camera. What could have felt awkward didn’t, and that made the entire experience and the photos so much better. By no surprise, John himself was booked on our wedding day, but two members of his team, Denida and Michael, were there to shoot our wedding. Denida was absolutely hilarious while still being very professional, and Michael fit right in with the guys. They both made the day feel easy and comfortable, which is exactly what we needed on our wedding day. The editing did take time, but the saying really does hold true, good things come with time. My husband and I were completely blown away by how incredible our photos turned out. Every detail, and every moment was captured beautifully. If you want photographers who are not only kind and genuine, but also creative and have an incredible eye for detail, look no further. John Barone and his team are truly the best.
An unmatched experience !!!

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.
