About

Tony Baiada, a veteran of over 1500 weddings, has been capturing the excitement and raw emotion that comes along with a wedding celebration for 25 years.

Sal Baiada is a student of new-age photography and offers a hip slant on developing trends in the world of wedding photography.Together they are Baiada Photography.The love of those special moments - and the people who create them - is what keeps Baiada Photography passionate about their role in your special day. Every wedding has little moments that make them unique and beautiful, and it is our job to capture each of these moments as they happen.

"One of the memories that has stayed with me from my own wedding is of my grandfather, blind and very ill, mustering the energy to stand up from his seat and dance while holding on to the back of his chair. I immediately ran over to him and we laughed and danced together. I looked for our photographer, who was seated in the corner of the room. He was just watching us, and since this was not one of the photos on his shot-list he did not bother to document it. This wonderful moment of my grandfather will die with me; and my kids and grandkids will never have the chance to see the moment. It is this one event in my life that drives Baiada Photography to shoot weddings the way we do." - Tony Baiada, Founder and President of Baiada Photography

While story telling is the heart and soul of Baiada Photography, we also pride ourselves on elegantly documenting traditional posed family and bridal-party photos. We aim to be a fly on the-wall, capturing the important moments as they happen without posing them or being in-your-face. We want you to enjoy your day while still having all the moments captured for future generations to enjoy.

Baiada Photography consists of four photographers, two of whom will be at your event. They have been together for over a decade and bring unparalleled experience to your event. We promise that your experience will be professional and enjoyable every step of the way.We look forward to having the opportunity to document many wonderful memories for you!

Baiada is a Must Have Vendor!

My husband and I could not say more about our experience with Sal and his assistance Jeff. The contracting process was easy and Sal is very communicative throughout the wait for THE BIG DAY. We had a phone call before our date which was great because we were able to agree on what was most important for Sal to capture. It also gave us the chance to get comfortable with him! He is such a professional! Sal was able to direct the schedule to maximize time with our families beforehand and guests afterwards. He and his partner Tony made us feel very comfortable in front of the camera - by the end I was pretty sure I could land a modeling contract with all the complements Sal was throwing my way! They also blended seamlessly with the crowd; we barely realized they were there at church, our first dance, etc., but they provided such intimate shots! We also only waited about two weeks for the photos to come back, which was such a wonderful surprise! Would absolutely recommend Sal for your wedding or special event, and will definitely look for an event in the future to use him again!

Absolute perfection!

I will never be able to put into words how wonderful my experience with Baiada Photography was. We were lucky enough to work with both Tony and Sal on my wedding day. They are true professionals; we had a blast with them all day long. But once we got the photos back, I was blown away all over again. Never in my wildest dreams did I expect to have my day so perfectly captured. We will cherish every single photo for the rest of our lives and we will be forever grateful for all Tony and Sal did to make our day so special.

Absolutely Perfect

Tony and Sal are exactly who you need capturing your special day. First, I got married on 11/26 and the entire album was done and ready by the following weekend as we were on our honeymoon. Second, Tony and Sal will feel like old friends working with you almost immediately. Thet didn’t miss a second on the dance floor - they got AMAZING candids, the special moments and hugs with family members, that facial expression you made at a friend when your favorite song came on. We also didn’t even notice them capturing it whatsoever. Not only do they capture (excellently) the pretty portraits in the church / getting ready, but they seriously capture the whole feel and vibe of your wedding. You will have a hard time choosing photos for an album!!!

The best choice you could make

The best way I can describe Sal and his team is that they became part of our family by the end of our wedding. Sal captured the most incredible moments. From our engagement photoshoot to the wedding day he was nothing but attentive, made great suggestions and he was just fun to be around. I could not have imagined our big day without Sal there to capture everything. Choosing Baiada Photography will be one of the best decisions that you make.

LOVED working with Sal

Simply put - Sal and Jeff captured every perfect moment of our wedding day. While looking through my photographs, it felt like I was re-living the entire experience, not just through my eyes but through every guest that was there. The moments he captured were so pure, and genuine, you could FEEL everyone's joy. The day of was so fun walking around Society Hill with Sal and Jeff - they'd find a weeping willow, a garden, a brick wall, stairs, all different places for us to take pictures - and each setting turned out amazing. They made everyone feel very comfortable being photographed - even through the always awkward pretend your laughing bridal party photos. I would highly highly recommend Baiada Photography for any special event!

We LOVED Tony!! Perfect photographer for our wedding day

Tony and his team were such a wonderful photography group to work with. Tony is incredibly sweet, personable, likable, and not pushy at all! He even knew everyone in our wedding party and our family members’ names which was so personal on the wedding day. Most importantly, the pictures came out incredible. He captured candid moments throughout the day, some of which we didn't even know happened! We would recommend Tony to a friend/family who want the most special day to be captured perfectly.

Perfectly captured our wedding day

Tony and Sal perfectly captured our wedding day and they are both consummate professionals. From the moment we met with them about a year before our wedding, we knew we had found our photographers - they were warm, friendly and full of great ideas on how to photograph the bridal party and our wedding venue (Ballroom at the Ben). I would recommend them to any couple in a heartbeat.

My wife and I were married on a COLD day in December 2017. Both Tony and Sal were not only incredibly efficient in getting us in and out of our heated trolley, but also super innovative in terms of getting creative and fun shots in a quick manner. The bridal party was incredibly grateful for their thoughtfulness given the temperature.

If you're looking for a great photographer at a more than competitive price, look no further.

We cannot thank Tony and Michael enough for capturing our wedding day! Tony was wonderful to work with from planning through after the wedding. He was so accommodating, responsive, flexible and kind. The day of our wedding he made the process so seamless, you barely new he was there at the reception. At the same time he captured all photo requests and was flexible for couples and family members who wanted pictures. We received the photos very quickly following our wedding and cannot stop looking at them - he captured everything perfectly and we couldn't be happier! We highly recommend Tony and his team!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
