    The Wedding Video of our Dreams

    Jose went above and beyond for our wedding video since the first day we connected. He is a professional with a warm heart and a passion for this field. The day of the wedding him and his crew made me feel comfortable and we had a blast all day. He sent us our video in under a month and we were blown away! Family and friends keep comparing it to a Netflix trailer and I agree. I could not imagine not having this video to look back on forever. If you book Jose for your wedding you will not be disappointed, I promise!

    Simply Amazing!

    Jose was nothing but a delight to work with! He was very responsive to any questions/concerns we had, even before we got him on board. He followed up a few times with us way before our wedding day, and made sure our timeline of events and any specific shots were spot on a couple days leading up. On the day of our wedding he got to work even before we knew he was there. He worked seamlessly with out photographer which he had never meet before which made the whole day a breeze. We got our final video a few weeks later and it came back better then we could have ever imagined. The final edits and shots were absolutely amazing. We can't recommend Jose enough.

    Hands Down Best Photographer/Videographer Experience

    Jose and the team were hands down the best investment of our wedding day. From planning to execution everything ran smoothly. Jose was very professional and really helped us think through the shots and what we needed for the wedding day. Jose and the team went above and beyond and we couldn't be more thankful for the images and videos we have from our special day. If you are looking for someone who will take the time, really care and make you feel comfortable on your special day then they are your guys. We have had numerous family and friends give us compliments on our pictures, and they absolutely love the video JY Photography put together for us.

    You will NOT regret this decision!!!!!!!

    Jose and his team were FANTASTIC! The way they all worked together to get the perfect shot and video from every angle was amazing! Their presence didn’t feel heavy or overwhelming, and they still managed to get every shot. Jose was so much fun to work with from our engagement shoot to our wedding day. Him and his team were just as excited on our wedding day as we were. Everyone loved our wedding video and photos. Jose is truly amazing and you will not be disappointed ❤️

    An Awesome Experience

    Jose and his team were truly wonderful to work with.
    Our initial call with Jose when we were still looking for a photographer and videographer was extremely organized and professional. Jose described his style, how he handles the day of the wedding and answered every question that we had. Deciding to go with Jose, was one of the best decisions we made. From our engagement shoot where we first officially met him to the wedding he kept the atmosphere light, funny, and truly captured all the important moments in between. His easy going personality, accompanied by the skill he possess with the camera made for such a pleasant experience. He stayed in constant communication with us and was always happy to jump on a phone call when needed. When we needed him to come a little early to start morning pictures, he did not hesitate and made every effort to make sure our day went perfectly. Jose capture every moment perfectly. And to top it all off, the turn around time from when our wedding was over to when we received our pictures and videos was so quick! We loved both!

    To all those looking for a wedding photographer, I highly recommend Jose Ybarra. He was a pleasure to work with!

    Amazing. Jose was extremely attentive and available to answer any and all questions. He was punctual, dependable, and professional!

    Jose wins the favorite vendor award with me and my husband. He is extremely personable and immediately made us feel comfortable in front of the camera. What I personally loved the most was that he has a great way of commanding a room. He ensure you get all the photos you need with all the people you would like pictures with. I used him not only for our wedding but also for my bridal shower and he is the best decision my fiancé and I made through out the wedding. Not to mention the photos - fantastic! Highly recommend!

    5/27 Dora & Joe

    It was such a pleasure to work with Jose and his team. He made us feels so comfortable. We felt like we were working with a good friend. We are not the best at posing for pictures lol. He gave us recommendations on what to do. We we received the pictures and the the videos it may my entire family tear. . He was able to capture all those beautiful moments. He was always very responsive to answering my messages. Compared to other photographers his price was very reasonable. He also was able to send us the finish work quickly. I was afraid it would takes months after reading reviews of other photographers who were taking more than a year. Jose thank you for the beautiful work that you do

    From the moment we got engaged we knew we wanted Jose to be our photographer. His pictures are so beautiful. From our first meeting, he was so easy to work with. We had a vision and it was exactly what we asked for. We had no issues getting in contact with him. He was always willing to listen to us and accommodate whatever we needed. Our pictures came out stunning and we are beyond pleased. We would recommend him 100%.

    Best. Decision. Ever.

    Jose Ybarra Photography leaves me speechless every single time I look at my wedding photos. He truly is a gifted artist when it comes to photography. His energy and personality is magnetic and is extremely talented. His years of expertise was apparent when the weather was awful on my wedding day and you couldn’t even tell from the photos and his ability to still capture photos and the love my husband and I have for each other. My husband and I had an interfaith wedding and Jose went above and beyond to be respectful and did not disturb any of the ceremony yet captured jaw-dropping photos.

    His pricing is extremely fair for the magic he creates. He is truly so kind-hearted and has such empathy for his clients.

    He brought such a good energy that even guests of the wedding approached me about how great my photographer seemed and wanted to know more. Definitely will be using his services in the future and recommending to everyone I know!

    Amazing day!

    Jose Ybarra was great to work with start to finish! My wife and I chose the Full Package and he delivered! The team of photographers and videographers showed up early, were a lot of fun to work with and stayed til the very end. Even though we had to move our ceremony inside due to a little stormy weather, that didn’t stop Jose and the team from capturing our amazing outdoor footage in between downpours. We absolutely love our video and how every moment was portrayed. We have watched it countless times reliving the day, would definitely recommend getting the package with the highlight video!

    This is our 2nd time having Jose as our photographer and he continues to surprise us. Just like the first time we worked with him, his turnaround time is unbeatable! He is so creative with his art, and was able to put everyone at ease. We received so many compliments for our wedding photos and we love to show them off!

    Wonderful photographer!!

    Jose was our photographer for our wedding day and I'm so glad he was. He spent the entire day with us and and made the trip down to south jersey to be part of our special day!! The day itself went by so fast and there was a lot going on but I felt he captured our wedding perfectly!! He was extremely professional, calm, courteous and innovative in the ways he photographed. Jose was even able to deliver our images in a little over a week, which I didn't expect! I highly recommend Jose as a wedding photographer and am so happy he was able to photograph our wedding day! The pictures came out beautifully and I will treasure them for years to come.

    100% recommend

    Jose and his assistant were amazing on our small wedding/elopement day. We had a limited amount of time and they got right to work as soon as we arrived. They were professional, provided great direction to us, and beautifully captured every moment of our day. They completely understood the "feel" we were looking for and were accomodating and friendly to my family. Would absolutely recommend him to anyone!! Thank you 😊

    Beyond Amazing!

    Jose was beyond amazing on our Wedding day! About a month before the big day, Jose began coordinating what the days schedule would look like, photo locations, venue locations and everything in between to help capture our day. He spent all day with us from the time we were getting ready til the end of the night. He was professional, yet casual and kind with a great eye to the surroundings. Our photos were taken at Liberty State Park and he took advantage of all the views and photo locations where we were. Throughout the reception he was attentive and was able to take many photos of our guests and everyone having fun. We are beyond speechless with how the photos came out. From the time we first contacted Jose, he was quick to respond every pesky question I could have through the end of the night, it was such a pleasure to have Jose there for our event!
