I found Abacus through a wedding site and quickly made an appointment to meet with Alex. He was a great guy and SO fun! I told him that I loved all of the reviews that Michelle got from previous weddings. Alex was nice enough to book me with her and to be perfectly honest, I met her the day of my wedding. I completely put her professionalism in charge and she did just that. She was so much fun and enjoyed all of us, she even gave photo advice to my mother and mothers friends whose camera's weren't working correctly. I mean who would do that?Michelle is someone I would recommend to anyone who is looking for a photographer for their event, she is also REALLY good with children. It's always hard to get my niece to look at the camera and Michelle got her to do it. Go with Abacus for your next event and ask for Michelle!

Rennie & Damian were a pleasure to work with for our October 29, 2011 wedding. Rennie came to my house on time and was very professional. She posed all of us beautifully and the proofs I just received really show it. She was kind to my whole family and complimented us on how we looked. Damian was a fabulous videographer. He was funny and really got into the mix of the party; I can't wait to see the video. It snowed, in OCTOBER, on our wedding day but both of them really made it amazing. I was stress free and they got amazing shots of all of us. I would highly recommend Abacus Studios to anyone planning their wedding. Thanks! -Christina & Frank

I loved Michelle and Damien... they made me feel beautiful and at ease on the best day and night of my life! All our shots, both traditional and candid, were amazing. They were so fun and creative. I loved every pic, and this is coming from the most "camera shy" bride in the world! I found Abacus to be very professional and highly flexible, and highly recommend them to anyone I see.

Our photographer was Michelle. I can honestly say from the first minute I met her I loved her! She is extremly personable and made everyone feel completly at ease. She has a very creative eye and made sure she was able to capture the best pictures possible. It was raining on my wedding day which made me so upset but Michelle had a way of making me feel great about the pictures we did get. She made sure she showed a picture or two to me and my husband to let us know she was still able to catch unbelieveable pictures!! We loved working with her and so did both of our families and wedding party. We cannot wait to see our proofs!! We Highly recommend Michelle!!

We wanted to thank the Abacus for an exceptional service which they provided during our wedding. Both Rennie and Robert exceeded our expectations in every single way. Rennie was just so sweet and she was there from the very beginning, capturing all of our precious moments. Robert was silently filming in the background, but he contributed to making every single detail picture-perfect and camera-ready. WE LOVE YOU, GUYS!!!! Thanks for a fabulous job!!! We will be recommending your service to all of our friends and family.

Abacus Wedding Studios was extremely attentive to all my requests and concerns. There are many photographers out there with specific packages that are “locked in” and will not budge to take or add in certain things. The day I talked to Alex about packages and pricing, I felt so relieved. He emailed me back with price quotes with all the additional things I needed: parent albums, thank you cards, proofs, edited album etc. I cannot say enough about how Alex broke down all the prices, and made me feel comfortable knowing I was getting everything we wanted at the price we could afford. Michele was our photographer for both our engagement session and our wedding on September 17. WOW she is a sweetheart, she becomes your best friend instantly! She understood how stressed I was at certain times and always knew a way to relax me and make me smile. She held bouquets, helped fix my dress, held my train …picked crickets/ants off my dress..hehe...basically did everything/anything to make me feel like she had my back during the wedding chaos. She also is great with allowing you to provide suggestions. Anytime I asked for some type of picture or pose, she was ready to take it. I love love love her, even my family kept repeating how much of a sweetheart she was! I have not seen the pictures yet, but throughout the entire night Michele would show me a few here and there. I cannot wait to see the proofs and make our wedding album. Michele definitely takes photojournalistic shots, and tries to be as creative as you want, she’s awesome! Damian was our videographer and he was also great. He was there the entire night but you never felt he was too up in your business. There were a couple of times throughout the night he made me laugh. Damian and Michele were awesome! Abacus Wedding Studios…….you were awesome for your friendliness, pricing and quality of photographers/videographers….your a 5 star package!!

Abacus Photography exceeded my expectations! They were amazing to work with! Being in the military, we were in Florida at the time we chose them and I really wanted to meet the photographers, so I decided to make a trip up to Jersey & meet them personally! I got to sit down and chat with Alex and Damian and then get to meet Rennie! All three of them were so nice and had such sweet hearts! Rennie was my personal photographer for our wedding day and she was so flexible and willing to do anything I had desired for our day. She took a million shots of the bridesmaids and the groomsmen and the party together and of my husband and I. When we got to the ceremony part and the reception, she was snapping away and for most of the time, we didn't even know she was there! Rennie was beyond phenomenal and such an amazing woman! I wouldn't of wanted another photographer! I've yet to see all of the photos she's taken, but she showed me a sneak peak on the dance floor of my reception and I can tell you, she is awesome! I would definitely recommend Abacus Wedding Studios for any future bride! Thank you so very much guys! xoxo

Abacus Wedding Studios was very attentive and responsive during our wedding process. They were always there to answer questions and help with the photography planning. Michele, our photographer, was great! She was very happy during the whole wedding, which made everyone, especially the groom and I, very comfortable with all the pictures. She also took amazing pictures of the day as well as posed pictures.

We used Abacus for our wedding last month.. Michelle was our photographer and Damian did our slideshow. They were terrific! We met both of them at a friends wedding the month before ours and instantly knew we made the right choice in choosing Abacus.Michelle has an incredible personality.. she is SO easy to get along with and has a good sense of humor. Our family members commented that they barely saw her the entire time and were amazed when we told them she took 1400 pictures. She layed low & took beautiful pictures.We definitely recommend Abacus to anyone looking for a photographer to capture their special day. Request Michelle & Damian-they are a great team!

We had Michelle as our photographer and Damon as our videographer. Both were a pleasure and we were happy to have them be part of our special day. We were also extremely pleased to receive our proofs and raw footage in a very timely manner. Both came out great and I can not wait to see the final album and edited video! If you are looking for a relaxed and professional group for your big day, I recommend Abacus.(we also had our engagement pictures completed with photographer Gabe which also came out great. One of our photos was even featured in a bridal magazine... very exciting!)

Working w/ Abacus Studios couldn't have gone more smoothly. From our first visit w/ Alex, we immediately felt comfortable trusting the studio with our wedding photography. Abacus Studios took the time to make sure we were knowledgeable in decisions we were making -- and really understood the differences between the different package and finishing options. On our wedding day, our photographer, Michelle, was like a member of the family. Multiple people came up to us asking who our friend was who was taking the pictures, because she honestly was acting as a close family friend -- she was AWESOME. Highly recommended!!!!!

We just got married a little over a month ago and people are STILL talking about how great the photos are from the wedding! We were really looking for someone who could capture the BEST of our moments and they definitely exceeded all our expectations. Our photographer Rennie did a fabulous job and was extremely professional throughout the day! We honestly could not be happier with the way our shots turned out. We were also extremely happy & thankful for our videographer, Rob who did an AMAZING job! He not only captured the whole day day, but really seemed to care, and took charge of what will and wont make for good shots and video. Even suggested another location in the area, they day of the wedding that made for quite a few of beautiful photos. We are so incredibly pleased with both Rob and Rennie and they did and absolutely amazing job! We HIGHLY recommend Abacus Photography; I can guarantee you won’t be disappointed with the results!! Happy Planning…

It was a pleasure working with Abacus studios. They are very professional and respond promptly to e-mails. Damian was the videographer for our wedding. He worked quickly and efficiently and I'm sure he was able to capture all the special moments and little details of our ceremony and reception. I can't wait to see the video!

Both the photography and videography services from Abacus were excellent and exceeded all of our expectations. They worked within our budget to create a comprehensive wedding package that included all of the elements that we wanted and much more. The photographer and videographer that we worked with specifically could not have been a better fit in terms of our personalities, styles & preferences. Not only were they beyond talented and professional, they were also hilarious, fun and helpful. The photos were absolutely beautiful and the video was incredible and perfectly captured our day. I cannot say enough about the tremendous service we received at Abacus and would recommend them to anyone!
