Mother of the Bride

Josh and his team did an excellent job with photography and videography for my daughter's wedding on 9/14/19.

He and his team came to our hotel and took pics and video of bride and groom prepping for the wedding. Those pictures actually are most precious to me. He caught the excitement and beauty of the day.

The pictures and video of the ceremony and reception are equally amazing. And his team did their job in an unobtrusive way. Guests remarked that they didn't even know they were there.

Highly recommend Josh and his team. Thank you Josh for capturing such beautiful and memorable moments.😍

Exceptional from beginning to end.

Josh and his crew were amazing from first contact until the end of the day. He was very responsive to E-mails and even had ideas that we didn’t think of or forgot about. Once the day came his crew and himself made the whole day very relaxing and stress free and I feel that is reflected in the pictures as everyone had a good time even when taking formal pictures.

Stunning work with lots of laughs

I will first say that our pictures and videos are so perfect, I wouldn't change a thing. I'm not sure how certain pictures could have even been captured, but Josh and his team were able to give us photos I wouldn't have thought possible. We decided to stay at the venue for formals and Josh was able to map out the most beautiful places. The team met up with both the bride and groom for pre ceremony photos at our hotel and then met us at the venue for our first look. We weren't entirely sure where we wanted the first look but, again, he flawlessly chose the most perfect spot. Amazing pictures would be enough for me to recommend working with Josh, however, the atmosphere they bring is on another level. Our photos were fun and filled with laughs. It never felt stiff or forced, which, for a couple that doesn't take very many pictures, was a relief.

Outstanding wedding video!

Josh Mariana and his team were absolutely incredible! They did an outstanding job and they were able to captivate all of the important moments on our wedding day. Their editing style created a wonderful video that we consider a wedding video masterpiece! They captured the essence of our wedding day and just like they say, they really know how to "capture the love." They went above and beyond to capture such meaningful moments that we will truly treasure for the rest of our lives! We are truly happy with their services. We have amazing videos that we are happy to see again and again with all of our friends and families. We can’t stop watching our wedding video and have received so many compliments on our wedding video from our family and friends. Working with them was always pleasant and they always got back to us in such a timely manner, oftentimes within minutes! We are pleased to recommend them to anyone. They are really great at what they do and they deserve all of the credit they get!!

I highly recommend working with Mariana Filmworks!!!

Beautiful Pictures

Josh did our engagement shoot and our wedding day photography. We also used his videographer just for our ceremony. The entire team was great and were completely unobtrusive.
Josh made us feel super comfortable from the first meeting. We knew within 5 minutes that we'd be hiring him. Not a single regret, our photos turned out wonderful. The fireworks pictures are especially beautiful. He's super quick too! We received our pictures in 2 weeks.

I honestly can't think of one point of criticism or something that I would change. Josh and his team truly captured the best moments of our day- even in times with difficult lighting, and they also got our photos back to us in record time! We are so thrilled with how they turned out, and would recommend Josh Mariana to anyone looking to truly get the best photography for their big day.

AMAZING! My husband and I cannot thank Josh and his team, Jess, Dan, and Jim, enough for the experience that they provided to us on our wedding day. The amount of professionalism and fun-loving personalities that they brought cannot be duplicated by anyone. We know that our wedding day was captured beautifully and we will have pictures and videos to look back on and relive again because of the excellent job that he did. We recommend Josh for a wedding or any other event that you want to live forever!

I was truly impressed with Josh Mariana and his team (Dan, Jess and Jim) as they shot pictures and video at my daughter's wedding on Saturday, 8-18-18. Our house is small; having a bride, parents/family and attendants (and big dresses!) in our home made things a bit tight. Adding 4 more people with cameras and gear - one would think - would have made things totally cramped. But it wasn't. They all just did what they had to do, worked around all of us, and made it very easy for us. Honestly, I hardly knew they were around. Josh and his team all were extremely professional, and made me and everyone else feel very comfortable.
We had such a good time in the bride's room at church. Although we were just introduced to Jess about an hour or two earlier, we all found her to fit in quite nicely; she went with what was happening at the moment -- the excitement, laughter, tears, and fun. I know she got it all!
I have been to wedding services where photographers are all over the place and are quite distracting. It was great not to be distracted at all by Josh or his crew at Mass -- I was able to focus my attention on the wedding ceremony. Once we got to the reception, I lost sight of our photographers altogether (in a good way!). We were so pleased with how things went with Josh and his team. They were all very easy-going, professional, inconspicuous, and great to work with. We can't wait to see his pictures! Would highly recommend Josh Mariana Photography for your wedding or special event -- you won't be disappointed!
