Beyond amazing!

Justin and Veronica were absolutely wonderful to work with! Justin made everyone comfortable, was so funny, and still so professional. My entire wedding party was so happy to be working with him and found him hilarious. I would work with them over and over again and recommend them to anyone looking for a photographer. Absolutely LOVED our experience.

Photos that will last a lifetime

My husband and I were fortunate enough to have found Justin to do our wedding! When we met Justin at Lake of Isles Wedding Showcase, we instantly knew he would be the perfect photographer for our wedding day. My husband and I never had professional photos taken of us before, so at our engagement shoot, we were very nervous. We shortly realized how easy it can be, all thanks to Justin. From start to finish, Justin was professional, organized and caring. In addition, my husband never really enjoyed the thought of taking pictures. However, my husband says now how thankful he is for Justin and how he made the picture taking fun and enjoyable and not awkward or weird. On our wedding day, Justin didn't miss a beat. We actually had our guests come up to us asking if we knew him personally and if he was part of our families. This goes to show how caring and kind he is. He also isn't afraid to get on the dance floor and catch some awesome moments which we loved! If we had to do this over again, we would choose Justin every time!

Justin and his wife, Veronica are incredible!! They are so kind, genuine, and amazing at what they do! They know exactly what to do and made us feel so comfortable!

The Perfect Photographer

We could've have gotten through our wedding day without the help of Jacek. The photos he took were amazing and he never missed out on a priceless shot. We have been looking at our photos constantly since receiving them. Not only did Jacek take amazing photos, but he also helped guide us throughout the day and make it so that we never had to stress about where to be and when or about gathering family and friends together. He even guided us on how to cut our cake (something we didn't even think out until we had to do it). I would recommend this team to anyone, they truly made our wedding perfect!

Amazing Talent!

Justin is an incredible photographer! We were so impressed with not only his work but his personality. We decided not to have an engagement picture session, which made us a little nervous how we would feel the day of with the camera, but Justin truly made us feel comfortable throughout the wedding pictures! Justin's wife, Veronica, was his assistant shooter for our wedding and the two of them were not only great at their job, but really fit in with our friends and family! Their personalities and talent are wonderful! Justin has great ideas and we relied on his opinion for locations. We are happy we listened to his advice, as the back drops of our pictures are gorgeous, especially the lighting. We quickly got a preview of our photos and I cannot wait to see more! They are breath-taking and so many people have told us how beautiful our pictures came out. We, without doubt, recommend Justin!

Wedding Memories

Justin did our engagement photos and we were so floored by our experience with him we were more than happy to book him for our wedding photos! Justin and his crew aren’t afraid to try new things or to get their hands dirty when it comes to getting the perfect shot. Justin is so flexible and was able to switch our location for our photos just days before our wedding day when I was starting to panic about July heat! Best of all, Justin suggested our videographer, Fran Gagnon Films, and it was so awesome to see them all work together to make a day feel so seamless. We are so excited to see our pictures!

The best photographer in the state of CT!

Let me start of by saying that booking Justin of J. Benson Photography was THE best decision I made while planning my wedding. He was recommended by a co-worker and after seeing his work I booked a meeting immediately. After I met him, I knew I could not use another photographer to shoot my wedding. He is the only vendor who my husband and I had the immediate connection and comfort with. He always worked around my schedule for meetings, and made me more at ease with every meeting. His photography is out of this world. We are so lucky to have been able to book such an charismatic and talented photographer. He made the engagement session fun, and the pictures are so beautiful. I have only seen my sneak peek from the wedding so far, and its magical, but I can not wait to see the rest of my wedding day photos. He is putting together a photo book for us and I know its going to be amazing. The way he shoots his photos and knowledge of lighting is outstanding. I am so thankful for every ounce of work he has put in to make our photos as gorgeous as they are. There is no need to look at any other photographers, Justin is the perfect one. I wish I could describe the relief I felt when he showed up to the bridal suite on the wedding day. During a super stressful time, he showed up and I knew everything was going to fine. Plus he is not shy on joining in on the fun, made my night when he joined in on the dancing. Thank you Justin!

Love, Mr. & Mrs. Archambault

Incredible!

There is really no need to write a long review for this. The reviews are in the photos! Justin is easy going, always looking to try something new with different shots, and has a unique way of capturing every moment of your event. Honestly, he should probably be charging much more than he is for the extremely high quality service he provides. Regardless, it is well worth it. He posted about 40 pictures a week after the wedding as a sneak peak and we cannot wait to see the rest of the pictures! All of our friends and family were blown away by the quality. You will not be disappointed with Justin!

Simply Amazing Photographer

Justin is one of the most talented and genuinely nice people we have ever had the pleasure to meet. When we chose our venue one of the wedding coordinators showed us a photo he had taken from a wedding there and we loved it so much we just knew it had to be him. He was the top priority when it came to choosing the wedding date. From the engagement session to the sneak peaks of the wedding photos he has exceeded every expectation. He is so incredibly professional and creative. If you're looking for an amazing photographer look no further!!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
