The Best In The Biz

Ian is seriously the best. Just stop whatever you're doing and book him! He's insanely talented and so easy to work with. His style is so unique and artistic; I can't even imagine having anyone else shooting us at our wedding. It felt like Ian was a part of the family that night, and I can't thank him enough for being a part of our big day!

I first saw Ian at work at my best friend's wedding, and she raved about just how good of a photographer he was and that their family will only book him for photos. Ian showed me some of the pictures he was taking, and the very next I day I booked him for my wedding! I started following him on facebook and instagram and just fell in love with his style -- I feel like he doesn't just take pictures, he creates art. On top of that, his personality is just delightful. It felt like we where kicking it back with a old friend, which made the all of our pictures look natural and carefree even if we where actually posing. I am also glad to say that the cycle of business for him continued, just like how I booked him after seeing his work at a friends wedding, I found out that two of my bridesmaids picked up his contact info for their own upcoming wedding! He is the real deal and you won't be disappointed. I would highly recommend Ian for your wedding!

Ian was amazing to work with and the pictures are better than we could have ever asked for. His style of photography is so beautiful- each picture tells a different story. I would recommend him to any couple looking for pictures that will last you a lifetime.

Ian came to our wedding with 2 photographers . The 3 of them were amazing. Our photos came out great... There is so many to choose from. I love the vintage feel our photos have... They are so unique and def different from all of my friends wedding photos. I would say, it's a very specific style so be sure to see samples ... Ian thank you - you were great!

Ian is a wonderful photographer! My sisters and I met Ian at a Starbucks and very quickly realized that his friendly, approachable personality along with his enthusiasm and passion for his work would be the best fit for us. From the moment we met for our gorgeous engagement shoot he made us feel relaxed and natural, he became a friend from that day on. When we saw him again on the wedding day, it was like seeing one of your family members on your special day. After seeing our wedding pics, it was almost as if he was never there as he was so unobtrusive but captured every single moment we could have hoped for and hundreds we would have missed. His second and third shooters had comparable styles. All of the photos has the same quality and style. He also offered a photo booth which our guests loved. If you are looking for a photographer to capture the true essence and feeling of your wedding day, then look no further – Ian Sbalcio is the man for the job!

Ian was incredible to work with, we enjoyed every moment. After our engagement photos, we knew we hit a homerun with him. Many people told us the engagement photos are just a test, if we got a few good ones out of the bunch we would be good. Literally every picture that Ian took was awesome! He is extremely talented behind the lens, professional, and so nice during the shoot, he knew what he was doing, and we fully trusted him.

Our wedding date fell on the weekend of Snowstorm Jonas. We moved it to a day earlier, as the snow would have just started at that point. Ian was able to make the necessary adjustments, and arrived right on time along with his assistant photogs. Ian was great with the bridal party, and everybody enjoyed his presence, he was chatting and keeping everybody comfortable. He and his team were great with both the Bridal Party and Groomsmen, By the time the ceremony ended, the snow was coming down. Ian saw this as an opportunity to grab some snow shots. We gladly followed his lead, and he already had his intended shots laid out and ready to go. It was a very smooth process. The shots that he took were absolutely breathtaking, he captured the moment perfectly; the snowfall and empty city made for some awesome pictures! He was able to show us a few shots within a few hours, and we were blown away!

After the wedding ended, he asked if we would be up to take a few more shots walking back to our hotel in the snow. Ian was once again very quick to pick out the right shots, and captured each moment perfectly. He is truly passionate about his craft, and we loved working with him. We would recommend Ian to anybody looking for a photographer, even if they didn't ask, he was just that good.

He posted a few pictures of our event to his blog, all of our family and friends were BLOWN away! It was an absolute pleasure to work with Ian. PLEASE check out his blog to understand what we mean!

Ian was an absolutely incredible person to work with. He always responded within hours, if not right away and answered all my questions. He was open to any ideas I had and I couldn't be happier with the photographs he took. They took our breath away and our friends and family were in awe. Our guests loved Ian and were really impressed with his professionalism. We highly recommend Ian to anyone who wants some pictures that will truly capture the magic of their wedding day.

My wedding photos are one of a kind because of Ian's talent. I could not be happier with my decision to use him on such an important day in our lives. Ian was professional, and got down to business as soon as he walked through the door, but he also made the picture taking process easy, fun and less like a chore. Amazing talent and one of a kind service. 100% recommend him to anyone looking for wedding photography. You didn't disappoint Ian !!
