"Experience the Difference"

Located in Brick, New Jersey, J & R Guarino Photography is a family owned business. We have been capturing and preserving treasured moments since 1988.

We have a very unique style of Photography, combining Fine Art Portraits and Artistic Photojournalism.   I pride myself in giving each and every bride my special attention to posses so we can capture there most unusual and unique style.   My goal is to capture your wedding just as you have always planned it.    All weddings are unlimited hours, unlimited pictures and two photographers,  and only one wedding per date.   All packages include on-line viewing.   All packages include Custom designed hard cover proof books or the copyright released high resolution disks,  custom designed albums, engagement sittings, with custom sign-in books,  and an array of different items to choose from.     I guarantee that I  (Rene), along with a second photographer and an assistant,  will be your photographer at every event.    We have a strong passion for our photography and we love what we do.   All packages are color, black and white,  and sepia.   All packages will have approximately 1,000 to 1,500 images and delivered to you in our own special custom proof books, which are yours to keep,  or the high res. disks.    Our album designs are all hand drawn and custom designed,  upgraded leather,  flush mount  albums , which you will get to approve before it goes to print.    We welcome your visits, so please make an appointment for an free, no-obligation, consultation to  see our work and discuss different packages.   We have many packages to choose from, with an budget to suit every one needs. 

My style is best described as "different".   Every bride that I work with is unique, and every shot that I take is different from the last.   I have developed a dramatic look and a colorful style that not  only brides love, but more importantly, that I enjoy creating.    I love to create that magical image or story albums for our my clients.

   I take the time to get to know each and every couple so that I can portray their unique chemistry.   On the day of the wedding, I stay calm and focused.   Behind the scenes, I conjure up stunning images through composition of light, shape and design, creating images that are heartfelt within the spontaneity of each and every moment.   I feel honored to compose the visual tale of your most special day.  Do not take your chance on the "The Day of Your Life".   All the beauty, preparations, efforts, and details will vanish in time if they are not skillfully and tastefully captured.      

We are also members of the Professional Photographers’ Association of America,  Professional Photographers’ Association of New Jersey and of WEVA - Wedding Event Videographer Association of America and Professional Videographers Association of New Jersey.

Of all the vendors that you have to choose for a wedding to me the photographer and videographer were the most important. J&R Guarino was by far the best company we met with and I couldn't be more happy of our choice to use them for our wedding. From the very beginning Rene was so helpful and just so made us so excited for our wedding. The first photo I saw in her studio was of a bride and it was so beautiful I wanted to buy it and hang it in my house like a piece of artwork you buy rather then a photo from a wedding. From that moment I knew we had to have her as our photographer and I was never disappointed. She showed me everything she could do with our photos from the amazing albums to our picture on a purse! We did our engagement session with her and my husband and I felt like models and had so much fun. On our wedding day, Rene kept me calm and made the chaotic morning so relaxing and let me focus on just enjoying every moment. We did the greatest poses and she was so wonderful with our entire bridal party it felt like a friend taking photos it was a fantastic feeling. When we saw the photos we were so ecstatic to see that not only were the photos of us beyond gorgeous but that she had captured every moment of our day from the toasting flutes and the cake to photos of couples at the wedding.She captured all the details of the day that I would not want to forget like the beautiful table settings and the placecards that I had worked so hard to make. The photos of us as husband and wife were so captivating we felt like we looked as if we belonged in an ad in a magazine. Rene and her husband Joe were so wonderful we feel as if they are now friends of ours and can't imagine this experience without them because they truly made it so special for us. Rene always made me feel like I was her only bride and gave us advice along the way and I can't imagine why any bride would go with anyone else. The quality of her work along should be enough but the fact that she was so helpful, and so kind made her an ally to me through the wedding planning process and I never had to worry about the stresses of photography or video like I did with some of my other vendors. I highly recommend J&R Guarino for photography and videography because the results will not only be breathe taking but the entire process will be something you do not have to worry about and any one planning a wedding knows there is so much to worry and stress over so one less thing is great! Their professionalism and dedication to what they do truly makes them the BEST photography and video company there is!
 


If you are looking for a fun photography studio to work with you on your wedding day, then you should consider J&R. With over 15 years experience, I can tell you that the photographer that you have been spending your entire day with can absolutely affect the celebration that follows your ceremony. From my perspective as a DJ, choosing a fun and easy going photography studio can mean the difference between having a great day and having the best day! You can't go wrong by choosing J&R!
