Adam Ciccarino Photography

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Adam and his photography. Adam was hired to photograph our small wedding in October 2024. From the very first phone call, my husband and I were impressed with Adam's professionalism and attention to detail. We had never hired a photographer before so we were unsure of what to expect, but Adam made the entire experience so simple and enjoyable. We did not have detailed specifics of what we were looking for, but it was as if he read our minds and gave us more that what we could have even thought to ask for. I was extremely impressed with the style of Adam's style of photography when I first found his website, and am now even more impressed after seeing the pictures from our wedding. Adam has such a uniquely artistic way of capturing the moment that, in my opinion, makes him far more valuable than a lot of other wedding photographers. Not only is Adam's work beautiful, but he is such a charismatic person that he easily became part of our wedding. Our guests had nothing but wonderful things to say about Adam and my husband and I are so happy to have had him there with us for our wedding. I would recommend Adam to anyone looking to hire a professional photographer and will gladly hire him again in the future.

We recently had the pleasure of working with Adam for our wedding in June 2024, and I cannot speak highly enough of him and his work! From our engagement photo shoot last Fall to the final delivery of our wedding photos last month, Adam made the entire photography experience enjoyable and stress-free for us. Adam is very easy-going and rolled with all the unexpected punches, making our wedding day so enjoyable. He and his partner Michelle made everyone feel comfortable, which was especially appreciated on such an overwhelming day.

When it comes to photography, Adam has a beautiful and unique style that blends natural and candid moments with an ethereal touch. Each photo beautifully reflects the genuine emotions of the day, creating a dreamy but utterly authentic quality. Adam really allowed for us to be present and completely ourselves for all the important moments, ensuring that we could cherish the day and all our interactions without feeling like they needed to be staged to be captured. The photos shine with the genuine emotions of the day and little details that bring us right back to the moment. We could not be happier with the end result and sing his praise endlessly!

What can't be said about Adam? I could at the very least sum it up by saying that on my wedding day, in dealing with the vicissitudes that come about with such a momentous occasion, Adam kept me sane. In a sea of sprinting headless chickens that was the defining characteristic of the lead-up to our guests arriving, Adam approached every worry and complication with the calm, confident ease of a consummate professional. His manner of speaking and connecting with us went beyond the necessities of a client/vendor relationship—we felt cared for, protected, and made to feel our best so we would look our best.

And look our best we did! Thanks to Adam's resourcefulness, we were able to take the most advantage of magic hour as he positioned us in just the right places to let the images of our first look play with the crepuscular light. As November night fell upon the venue, Adam quickly pivoted the strategy for how we would get our remaining family portraits in, while still being able to imbue it with the warmth that he was so receptive to making happen in our prep calls.

Ultimately, the next day, my wife and I woke up and made an informal list of our MVP vendors (as one does), and Adam came out of the top of that list. A gifted photographer who truly loves what he does, Adam will be getting a call from us every time our lives together need documentation henceforth. We hope to see him several more times in the coming years; we know you'll feel the same!

We are thrilled to write this review, because Adam was straight up phenomenal! When we first met with him, he immediately understood our vibe – we wanted to focus on candid shots and capturing the energy of the day, and not stress too much about posed photos or perfect lighting or strict timelines.

On the day of, Adam fully lived up to that. He was incredibly calm and good natured and never got flustered, even when we did. He arrived perfectly on time and was ready to hit the ground running after just a few minutes. He started by giving us some great guidance about how to capture the best shots, delivering all sorts of advice and suggestions in a clear but laid back way. He emphasized the importance of us being natural together for our couple photos, and worked hard throughout the day to make sure we felt at ease with him and with each other. He was also an absolute pro with our families and friends. He easily corralled our family for group photos and was able to quickly move through the long list of shots we wanted. He was also flexible and accommodating, happy to add to our list of photos on the fly.

During the ceremony, Adam was so smooth that we nearly forgot he was there, yet he still made sure to get all the shots we needed. Similarly, at the cocktail hour, he was extremely prolific, splitting his time between getting photos of large unruly groups of cousins and college friends, and milling around the party grabbing candids of folks chatting at the bar, eating appetizers, and goofing around.

Finally, the reception. From the looks of the photos we’ve seen so far, Adam was everywhere! He was always within reach when we wanted him, but somehow still made his presence scarce. He bobbed and weaved around our family as we did a first dance with all of our parents and siblings, capturing that all important, once in a lifetime moment. Later in the night, he made use of a professional light to get higher quality dance floor photos.

For couples who want to make sure they capture all the key moments, but also want someone who won't make the wedding only about the photos, Adam is your guy. He’s relaxed but in control, and an excellent communicator. He’s also a truly lovely wedding guest – we genuinely enjoyed hanging out with him! Highly recommend to any and all for their big day.

We are so lucky to have worked with Adam & Michelle on our wedding day. They were super cool and easy to work with and made the day much less stressful than it could have been. We just got some sneak peeks of our wedding photos, and are already in love with how they turned out. We appreciate his professionalism and ability to capture all the moments of the day. We bonded over our love for ice cream between photos and learned what a blackbird sounds like. He kept us on track with our timeline yet we never felt rushed. When something came up unexpected at the end of the night, Adam and Michelle were flexible and stayed later than planned, which we are extremely grateful for. Thank you both for being a part of our day and we hope to stay friends!

Adam is able to capture people looking gorgeous, in great moments, while somehow also getting something of their personality in the picture. It's a talent and a skill and I'm very grateful we had him at our wedding. I would hire him for any future photography needs.

My husband and I absolutely loved working with Adam for our wedding in April 2023. It was a positive experience working with him and his partner Michelle every step of the way - from the initial communication and planning, to the engagement shoot, to the big day! He was particularly helpful with planning the timeline of the wedding day (i.e. when to arrive at the venue for photos, when to do the first look, etc.) - I was grateful to have help with this! Most importantly - he helped me and my husband feel comfortable taking photos. I am very shy and feel awkward in front of a camera - Adam and Michelle were so friendly and joked around with us to help us feel comfortable. The result was amazing - our engagement and wedding photos were beautiful, and we looked so natural and relaxed. Adam really captured the spirit and romance of our wedding day. There were so many incredible candids of us, our bridal party and family, and our guests. If you are looking for soft, romantic, natural wedding and engagement photos, with someone who is both professional and fun to work with - I definitely recommend Adam!

We knew Adam would mesh well with us from the first time we spoke to him. He is so down to earth, pleasant, and funny. We did our engagement shoot about a year before the wedding, in our neighborhood, and it was a lot of fun getting to meet and interact with Adam (and Michelle). On the wedding day, Adam continued to be awesome. We hired solely Adam for photography because we had a smaller guest count. For us, talking to Adam felt like talking to an old friend, someone relatable and whom we love to hang out with. His photography skill is excellent- kept it super efficient and fun and covered so much at the same time. Our guests raved about Adam too! He is humble and appreciative throughout our wedding day- we are grateful to have him as our photographer.

Adam has been a good friend of ours for some time now, so it was a no brainer when it came to deciding who was going to do our engagement shoot. Not only does Adam capture incredibly beautiful and in the moment pictures, he is also an incredible professional with such a warm and comfortable presence. Any nerves or uncertainties we had disappeared instantly as Adam assured us that being ourselves was exactly what he wanted to capture. The end result is nothing short of perfect; Adam managed to capture both the candid, posed and perfectly imperfect moments, and put together a package of pictures that is going to make it nearly impossible to choose just a few from.

I cannot recommend Adam enough. As I've said at least a hundred times to everyone I know at this point: the man is a magician with a camera.

Adam and Michelle are an amazing photography team! I worked with them on a wedding in CT ( I am a planner) and their attention to detail, timeliness and responsiveness are top tier. Don't hesitate to book them!
