John Bello Photographer

John was our photographer for our wedding this past Sept 2022. He was so grounded, confident and friendly, he definitely did a really good job telling the story of our special day through the photos he took. He even included a slide show that was great to share with family members who couldn't attend.John was amazing and easy to work with, really great communicating the plan and expectations for the day and treated our guests very nicely. I would strongly recommend him, no complaints at all. Thank you so much John for the dedication you give us! Forever grateful!

John was on a list of highly recommended photographers provided by our Wedding Planner. The minute we went onto John’s website we knew he would be a perfect match for what we were looking for, by the way he truly captures emotion in people and creates unique perspectives. We had a meeting with him and that sealed the deal. He is very personable and easy to work with and spent time getting to know us and our background so that he could add context to our story. On the day of our wedding, we can only imagine how many pictures he took because he was shooting continuously throughout the night, documenting every aspect of our event and the fun candid moments of our guests. When we received our final package, we were blown away at the affection and happiness that he captured in our guests and the quality of his work. As the bridal couple, we didn’t get to spend a lot of time with each guest but were heart warmed to see how much fun everyone had that night as captured by John. Everyone we’ve shown our pictures to have been equally impressed. If you’re looking for someone to bring a new level of artistry, and create a documentary of your special day, John is your guy.

We hired John for our wedding in November 2022, and we couldn't possibly be happier with him and his work! He made himself available on short notice, and was willing to accommodate some special requests that we had. He took the time to get to know us through an initial interview and questionnaire, and the resulting photos are encapsulations of who we are as a couple. During the wedding, John was almost invisible and completely unobtrusive, yet the photos suggest that he was everywhere in the room all at once. He has a warm and reassuring demeanor - just the kind of presence you want on your big day!Hire John if you have the chance - we guarantee you can't go wrong with him!

We had a great time with John shooting our wedding photos. It was a cold day for us and so was for him. He was professional super professional and energetic. The wedding was in the forest (Stanley Park), he positioned us with the different terrain and background. John also played around the sunlight that seeped through the layers of the trees. This really showed through in our photos! Thank you John for the great memories on our special day and the photos!

We didn't know much about photography but we were amazed with John's work looking through his online portfolio. We loved how he was able to capture candid shots so beautifully and how he was able to find creative angles at all of our wedding day locations. Most of all, John is just a really solid person and he genuinely cared about our big day. He took the time to get to know us and was very helpful in providing us feedback and suggestions from a professional perspective as we planned for our wedding. Not only is he extremely talented, he is also very dedicated to his work. He even came to our church rehearsal couple of days before the wedding despite the pouring rain! We highly recommend his services 100%.Thank you John!!! :)
