Jim has truly become such a great friend in this process. The biggest thing you want to feel on your wedding day is comfort and support. Jim goes out of his way to make this happen. We first met and worked with Jim for our engagement photos. We had so much fun! Jim wasn't afraid of getting in the sand and water to get our pictures in the ocean. When our wedding was postponed, Jim was there to shoot our elopement (and keep the secret)! After waiting for eight months, we finally had our wedding. Even though it was raining, Jim captured every moment of our amazing day. We will be working with Jim for all of our photography needs in the future. Thank you, Jim! -

Creativity Beyond Words
Jim is absolutely fantastic! Extremely professional, creative and has an upbeat attitude which made taking photos during our engagement shoot and wedding a total blast. Picture quality is crisp and Jim's ability to take in surroundings and come up with innovative ideas is so impressive. Your photos will be anything but cliche or ordinary if you hire Jim and his team. Can't say enough good things! Also, his processing time for engagement photos was within days (solid 200+ pics from the shoot). We had a sneak peak from our wedding 4 days after our wedding - which was October 19th and peak wedding season. Speedy delivery and our guests all really enjoyed Jim's energy at the event. Highly recommend! -

We are so glad we hired Jim Barbere to photograph our wedding. Jim's mix of professionalism with a down-to-earth sense of humor made him a perfect fit for us. We wanted both formal pictures of our family and candid pictures that captured the fun of the day, and Jim and his partner Shauna delivered.
In our first phone conversation, he asked detailed questions to get to know us and our families, and also to get us thinking about the vision for our wedding photos. He also met me for coffee so I could get to know him, which I very much appreciated.
Jim was flexible with shooting locations, arranging to shoot me and the girls getting ready at the venue (The Harbor Room in Gloucester), my husband and the guys getting ready at his mom's house around the corner, first-look shots near the water, family photos back at his mom's house, the ceremony, and the reception. Jim and Shauna drove us from place to place and kept us entertained and calm the entire time.
The part of our day that encapsulates Jim best is when he noticed my 8-year-old niece (our flower girl) was getting antsy to get the show on the road and was about to have a mini meltdown. He handed her his flash and put her straight to work, coaching her with both respect and humor. She was delighted and so were we!
Jim gave us a sneak preview of at least 100 shots within days of our wedding. We got the full set of photos exactly two months later, on Thanksgiving morning. It was great to be able to show our family the pictures when we were all together for the holiday, and everybody loved them.
I would highly recommend Jim Barbere and would be happy to talk with anyone considering hiring him.Jim Barbere Photography's reply:
Lisa - it was so wonderful to work with you both and get to meet your families and friends. I am so grateful to have such sweet clients (now friends) and to do what I love so much. Many years of happiness and health to you all! -

Laurie Sent on 10/01/2019I HIGHLY recommend Jim Barbere Photography!
Jim did an amazing job photographing our wedding. We are a "mature" bride and groom so our wedding was a celebration of our friends and family who have seen us through some challenging times in our lives. We wanted a lot of candids as well as a list of posed pictures with different people and Jim delivered it all! We were amazed by all the candids he got, the expressions on people's faces were priceless. Everyone looked like that had a really fun time and that was all we wanted. Well done Jim, well done! -

Molly Sent on 10/28/2018Wonderful experience with a creative and fun photographer
Jim was fantastic to work with from start to finish. My husband doesn’t love getting his picture taken and he made him feel incredibly at ease and we had a ton of fun on our wedding day at the beginning of October. We loved our engagement photos and recently saw a sneak peak of our wedding photos which are really beautiful, we can’t wait for the rest! Jim is a truly wonderful, fun and insightful photographer and we would HIGHLY recommend him! -

Leah Sent on 11/06/2017There really isn't a bad thing that can be said about Jim! Aside from his super friendly personality and his attention to detail, he makes every experience fun and relaxing, which is HUGELY important during wedding planning and the actual wedding day! After our first meeting with Jim over cocktails and many platters of oysters (many platters...like 3 hours later platters) we knew he was going to be our wedding photographer. He has a confident yet approachable and down-to-earth demeanor and his work just speaks for itself. After our engagement session with him we felt like we really became friends, and couldn't wait for him to shoot our big day. As we predicted, he was personable, timely, professional, funny, creative, and easygoing. Our friends and family loved Jim as much as we do and we honestly can't imagine anyone else taking our photos that day. We couldn't recommend him highly enough for any photography needs, especially wedding photography. Thank you Jim for making the entire process magical!!!

Arielle Sent on 12/04/2017I can't say anything but the best about Jim Barbere Photography! We met with several different photographers when beginning to plan our wedding. Jim offered us a tremendous value compared to the cost of all the others. His package included an engagement session at no extra cost. My (now) husband and I were both a bit reluctant since neither of us really enjoy having our picture taken. Jim used this session to get to know us and made us feel more comfortable. We had a fun time and the photos came out beautifully. When it came to the wedding day, Jim and his second shooter Shauna were both professional and super accommodating to make sure we got all the shots we really wanted. Shauna even got into the water at the beach in October to get just the right angle! My whole family kept telling me how great he was and what a good job they both were doing. Jim was such a pleasure to work with and his photographs are all stunning and creative. Thank you for making our day so special and capturing that feeling so well in your work! -

Jim- You have a way of capturing every sentimental moment, you are truly talented. You also fit right in with our family! You’ve captured every aspect of what we wanted and more. You made taking pictures fun and that is exactly what our crowd needed. We look forward to having you take all our family photos as we begin to grow our own. The quality of your work is second to none, and is only surpassed by your infectiously fun presence on our special day. Thank you so much for everything! -The Daley’s
