About

They say that “beauty is in the eye of the beholder.”

SO BEHOLD THIS.

Hello everyone.

I’m Johnny.

From the first moment my grandfather placed a Sony Cybershot in my hands at age 13, I knew the magic of capturing life's most profound and intimate moments was meant for me. Now, after 25 years behind the lens, what began as a childhood hobby has become everything to me.

My mission and commitment to you as your photographer is to apply my skill, creative mind, and decades of experience to your important occasion so you have wonderful, exciting, tangible memories to recall many years from now, as opposed to just looking at pretty pictures; your real, genuine love on display.

I’ve worked for years to become proficient across a wide range of photographic and editing styles, in order to better serve the needs and preferences of every couple I have the pleasure to work with.

I know firsthand how challenging wedding planning can be, so I aim to keep my end smooth, fun, and affordable - while keeping your unique vision at the forefront.

Hopefully by now you’re intrigued. I should mention that laughter and joking while I work is an absolute must, because when everyone’s comfortable and at ease, I do my best work.

You might also wonder about my logo at the top,
the Ghost.

To represent my body of work, I wanted something that encapsulated the experience my couples have when they have me shoot their wedding. The concept of using a ghost for that was born from a text that a bride sent me after seeing her final wedding album.

”Every time I turned around and didn’t see you, I felt like you were missing a good photo, but somehow you got EVERY MOMENT and so many that I wasn’t even aware were happening. You were like a ghost - but not in a bad way!! You were just everywhere.”

More couples began to say similar things, and I realized how much fun I was having - how much I loved it. How lucky I am to work alongside love, and to create art that sparks fond memories - to capture joy. This is without a doubt the dopest job of all time. And I love it.

”You were just everywhere” is the kind of praise that I aspire to be worthy of.

Prepare to meet the most hilarious photographer you’ve never heard of.

Holyoke, Massachusetts is my home, but I'm happy to travel anywhere to take your picture.

Johnny was amazing!

Not only did Johnny and Alegre do a fantastic job of capturing every detail of our wedding, they also did a great job of making everyone, especially the bridal party, feel calm, beautiful, and ready to enjoy every moment.

Between posing direction, weather challenges, and timeline management, Johnny and Alegre seemed to do it all. When it came to efficiently managing time and groups of people for pictures, we always felt comfortable and at ease when they were around. In the face of inclement weather for our outdoor wedding, Johnny was able to capture every moment of beauty with his unique eye for photography.

We could not have asked for anyone better to photograph/videograph our wedding!

Best Decision We Ever Made!

We chose So Behold This/Johnny for our wedding, and it was one of the best decisions we made. From the outset, he was incredibly approachable and took the time to understand what we wanted. His passion for photography was evident, and it put us at ease right away.

On the wedding day, Johnny and his assisstant were a delight to work with. They blended in seamlessly with our guests and managed to capture all the special moments. The candid shots were particularly remarkable, capturing the "moment before the monent" - genuine emotions and laughter throughout the day.

When we received our photos, we were blown away. Each image was beautifully edited, showcasing not just the events but the emotions behind them. The colors were vibrant, and the compositions were stunning.

Overall, we couldn't have asked for a better experience. If you want a photographer who is skilled, friendly, and truly dedicated to capturing your wedding day, I highly recommend So Behold This/Johnny. He helped us preserve memories we will cherish forever!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
