Joe Cutalo Photography

Joe and his team were awesome to work with. We gave ideas and also he had some ideas if we didn't think of any. Very responsive to email and text and even made our flower girl laugh for pictures. Highly recommended if you want beautiful pictures.

Joe was such an incredible photographer, I am so glad we chose him. The images are gorgeous. You can never tell how awkward me and the groom are from the photos he took of us. Joe and his assistant were there when it was time to take photos but never got in the way of the wedding itself, always able to melt into the background and capture the beauty of the day. I highly recommend using Joe, you will not regret it at all. Also the price man, 10/10. His services were much less expensive than others and nothing is sacrificed in quality. He could have charged so much more for the beautiful work he produced. Thanks Joe!

Joe was such an amazing, kind, and talented photographer. He did such a great job at my wedding. He was very professional and was so flexible throughout the day. He always had new ideas for pictures and never disappointed us. If I could give him more than 5 stars I would. I was so lucky to have found a wonderful photographer like Joe. I would definitely recommend him! He will not let you down.

We had 63 days to put together a wedding with 75 guests for our daughter (the bride) and future son-in-law, who are both in the military, were out of the country and 3,000 miles apart from each other.

We first met Joe Cutalo, the owner of Joe Cutalo Photography of Titusville, NJ 45 days before the wedding. Joe drove 40 minutes to meet with us near our home. We hired him on the spot after discussing his personal style, background, experience and approach to his work. His pricing was very reasonable and less than we expected for the entire package which included 2 photographers for 8 hours each on the wedding day. We also significantly upgraded the parents album, bought extra prints for us, for the bride and groom and for friends. On the wedding day Joe, and his assistant Ron, were extremely easy to work with, were completely accommodating and never caused any inconvenience to the bridal party or the guests. Joe made sure he got all of the important shots of the wedding ceremony, the family photos, the reception, etc. Joe and Ron were completely professional, friendly, courteous, worked around our activities, provided guidance and recommendations for poses and were happy to shoot any special requests. Much of the time we hardly knew Joe and Ron were there. In the end, we received hundreds of great, creative shots including many action and candid shots. We appreciate the dedication by Joe and Ron to our daughter’s wedding and enthusiastically recommend Joe Cutalo Photography.

Our expectations were blown away in working with Joe! Throughout the entire process, Joe was extremely responsive, professional, and flexible. He patiently answered questions, worked with us to create a photo timeline that made sense for us, and was flexible the day of with making changes as needed. Joe made us both feel relaxed and comfortable. He and his second shooter worked well together as well. Most importantly, our pictures are incredibly beautiful and really capture our personalities! HIGHLY recommend Joe for an easy going, lifestyle photographer!

Joe went above and beyond what we could have asked for as a wedding photographer! He was very attentive and descriptive in our initial meetings, which helped us go into our wedding day at ease about the pictures. On the day of the wedding, he responded seamlessly to a last-second change in photo locations. He helped set up the perfect lighting for some amazing shots. Every picture we requested, he came through with. He even helped the groom and some of the groomsmen put on their boutonnieres! We cannot thank Joe (and his partner, Ron) enough for the very important role they played in the best day of our lives!!

My whole family LOVED all the photos, we sat together and looked at them and everyone was incredibly impressed. He was professional, personable, and fun. He and his assistant made our wedding that much better. Thank you!

I would highly recommend Joe Cutalo photography! Him and his team are highly efficient, competent, hard-working, fun, extremely nice, patient, and eager to make your wedding day the most special/amazing day of your life! The memories and moments that he captured are fantastic and are amazing pieces in our home. Our Greek/Italian wedding was fairly large, held at The Venetian catering hall in Garfield New Jersey. Joe and his team were able to keep up with the crowds and capture every moment throughout the day and night. The end result is hanging throughout our home, not to mention the beautiful album that shipped from Italy and a high-quality album I made add. Again, we would highly recommend Joe Cutalo photography to any bride and groom looking for a wonderful group of people to work with to capture the special moments of your special day!

Joe was a pleasure to work with and incredibly flexible as we planned our wedding. On the day of our wedding he was calm and professional, which was a welcome relief among the more stressful moments during portraits with family. Looking through our pictures later, he captured all of our favorite moments and so many of the small but beautiful details of the day. I am so grateful to have such beautiful photos to look back on with my husband. I have since recommended Joe to other couples looking for a photographer.

He is the best in my wedding, It was raining and he bring the stuff in and the umbrellas and he found a A perfect spot for pictures i love him
Thank u joe

To say that Joe did an excellent job with my wedding pictures is an understatement! His work is truly phenomenal. He is very knowledgeable about his work and he made us feel very comfortable from the start. We hired him because of his confidence and his ability to work with our budget, but we never imagined that he would completely exceed our expectations. During the event Joe and his second photographer were naturals, they really knew how to blend in and take spectacular photos of our guests. They were wonderful, personable and professional. We were amazed at how beautiful our pictures looked and at the speed and quality of the work. I would definitely, without a doubt, recommend Joe to anyone in need of excellent quality photos. Thank you very much Joe, for creating such unforgettable memories! -Erika and Luis Vargas

When we approached Joe to do our engagement photos the first thing I noticed (and the thing I came to appreciate most) was how calm and in control of the entire situation he was.

He asked us where we would have liked to take our photos and when we hesitated to give an answer he asked us just to think of the places that were significant to our relationship and the places we loved to go together. It was as if he knew that is what we needed to hear - and it put us immediately at ease. We had come into the situation feeling that we had to have the perfect location for these photos, thinking that was the most important thing to insure that they looked amazing. Speaking with Joe reminded us that as long as we were having fun in the photos, the love and happiness we share would come through regardless of the location. He made it extraordinarily easy for us to enjoy the process.

On the day of the shoot Joe was accompanied by his wife, Amanda - they worked together seamlessly. I really appreciated having Amanda there with us, she was another creative voice and I was sure she would have told me if I had lipstick on my teeth.

Everyone in our family loved the photos and we couldn't be happier with them. He really captured who we are as a couple, the way we interact with each other, and what our relationship means to us. The quality and resolution of the photos was phenomenal so we had no issues whatsoever when we had a few prints made. Joe not only e-mailed us the photos, but he uploaded them onto his website. This gave us the opportunity to share the photos with friends and family that live further away from us.

We were so in awe of the entire experience and so grateful for Joe's keen eye and his ability to capture even the most fleeting of moments that we asked him to photograph our engagement party and our bridal shower. Our experience with Joe Cutalo was as close to a perfect as we could have hoped for.

Short version: Joe is amazing, you will love working with him to capture the magic of your event, small or large.
Long version: Joe did an amazing job as our wedding photographer and we were thrilled with the photos and album he put together for us. We had a simple ceremony and reception at the Off-Broadstreet Theater in Hopewell and wanted the focus of the photos to be more on personalities and activities, rather than set pieces. Joe was everything you'd want in a photographer:

- attentive: listening carefully to our thoughts and preferences for our dream shots
- detail-oriented: coming to our venue two weeks before the date to walk through the venue + iron out details, and following up on all of our emails with plenty of details
- creative & resourceful: worked with us on all the details of the lighting in the theater, took many amazing photos with his own vision based on some of the rough ideas we thought up, finding vendors to work with to make our album customized to what we wanted
- organized: asking for our shot list in advance and bringing the list with him to make sure we got all the group shots we wanted
- patient!
In summary, Joe is as close as you can get to a mind-reader in a photographer.

Both Joe and his second photographer (Bernadette) were complete naturals, knowing when to give us input and when to step back and capture moments from a distance. He also had a great sense of humor and put everyone at ease. All of the ladies who helped me get ready thought Joe was a natural at capturing the special moments of us getting ready while giving us space to do what we needed. We could not be more thrilled with how our wedding photos turned out and we love looking through the photos to relive the magic of our special day. It's obvious that Joe is passionate about photography, has a great eye, and is eager to share his talent & thoughts on photography to capture your special day. We cannot thank him enough!!!

Very friendly, personable, and if you have a young flower girl, he'll totally make her laugh for cute group pictures! He has an artistic eye and aims to please.
