Reviews for Argento




Mike and Jill are amazing. We had our engagement session in June and were absolutely thrilled with our pictures. We received the rights to all of our pictures on a DVD, a keepsake personalized photo box and a 4x6 print of every photograph(about 120 total)for only $300! They are both extremely friendly and professional. It is absolutely amazing having 2 photographers to cover the wedding. I feel completely comfortable and confident that they will take beautiful pictures of our day that will last us a lifetime. I would highly recommend them!

GUEST




Mike and Jill Argento are the perfect team! We cannot wait to see all of the finished images and show them off to our friends and family. The spent the entire day with us starting at 1030am until 1030pm. They were on time, professional, and full of creative ideas! Will definitely use them in the future!
GUEST




Mike and Jill were amazing to work with and we couldn't be happier with our photos! We met with them at their house initially & instantly felt comfortable with them & their work. The day of the wedding, we felt like we were in the company of friends that were photographing us. They're fun, easy going and professional. Not only are they incredible photographers, they're incredible people too- we've been recommending them to all of our friends getting married ever since!
GUEST




I loved them, they were so comfortable to be around it was not at all awkward or in any way a hassle working with them, which is very different from what I have heard about other photographers :-) Oh and also they did an absolutely beautiful job!

Mike and Jill Argento are truly outstanding photographers both personally and professionally! Their work is exceptional and creative. Their response time was always within 24 hours (and many times within 24 minutes!) and they answered every question. They're extremely flexible and can work with you to see that your photo shoot or wedding goes exactly as planned. Working with Mike and Jill was an easy choice after seeing their work and talking with them on the phone. A day with Mike and Jill is like spending the day with great friends! They are worth every penny and we would highly recommend them!
GUEST




We had an outstanding experience with Argento on our wedding day. They were professional, easy going and fun! They took time to listen to our questions, concerns and any special requests. Our photos turned out amazing and we have so many to choose from. We would recommend Argento again and again to anyone looking for a photographer.
GUEST




We looked at many different photographers and even met with a couple but Mike and Jill were the best. Their skill as photographers and their attention to detail with every photo with post processing (though it is subtle and only noticeable if you are shown the unaltered originals) is exceptional. You can tell that they love their job and take care to show their complete attention to you, your wedding and your photos. They also respect your space and are not intrusive at all. Their cost is competitive and worth every penny. If you want solid, artistically taken but family portrait suitable photos that are not all at angles just to be artsy, the Argento's are the best that you will find.
GUEST




I would(and do!) highly recommend Mike and Jill for all of your photography needs. We had an amazing e-session with both of them at the location of our choice. We were able to relax and be ourselves! The pictures were stunning and the packaging was even better. Mike and Jill make sure every detail is thought of, their professionalism and editing skills are unmatched in the area and for the price. Mike and Jill shot our wedding and what they captured was priceless. From there, we customized the most amazing wedding album full of our breathtaking images and the classic Queensberry product. I cannot say enough about Argento Photography...now go book them! :)
GUEST




Wonderful photojournalists. They are attentive to your needs, wants, and dislikes. They happily accepted suggestions from us about pictures we thought would be nice. They took a very good variety of pictures. They were happy to be working with us and smiled throughout the entire day. They took time to get to know us a bit as well instead of just clicking away with no regard for us. My husband and I are very pleased.
GUEST




The absolute best in the business.
They are one extremely creative couple that creates the most magical images you can ever imagine. An absolute blast to have around all day to capture your wedding. No limit on pictures or hours, they spent the entire day us capturing every moment!
GUEST




Mike and Jill were very comfortable to be around. They were very friendly and professional. I really liked that it was a man and women team so that the "getting ready" pictures were more comfortable.
GUEST




Mike and Jill were absolutly awesome! They are the best! Not having them take your wedding photos is a mistake.
GUEST




The Argento's were amazing! They were fun, easy going and there is two of them so there were double the pictures. The photos came out more perfect then I could have asked, I couldn't have been happier with anyone else. They were amazing.
GUEST




My husband and I had Mike and Jill Argento do our wedding photography. Jill came to my mother's house for before wedding to get pictures of the girls getting ready, while Mike was with the boys taking pictures of them at the church getting ready. We never even noticed them during the ceremony or reception and they were able to get AMAZING pictures throughout the night. They were very professional and we were incredibly pleased with the resulting pictures. I would recommend them to anyone in the Buffalo area who is looking for a photographer for their wedding.
GUEST




My husband and I have nothing but the best memories of our wedding thanks to Mike and Jill Argento. We stumbled onto their website and immediately set up a get together--if you haven't seen their website yet what are you waiting for!? We knew they were not only amazingly talented photographers from their showcased work online but after meeting them they are a great couple and just easy to talk to! The talent is endless with Mike & Jill and it was great to form a bond with them as we were celebrating the happiest day in our lives. After our teaser proofs were up online we could not wait to see the rest of our photos. We gave them free range because they know best and I couldn't sing their praises any louder!
GUEST




Lovely experience with this company. Very flexible in meeting with us initially. They spent the ENTIRE day with us and captured every important moment of our wedding. After the wedding we got our photos very quickly. The prints of the photos we ordered are gorgeous. It's been nearly two years since our wedding and recently my sister ordered more prints, the Argento's were responsive to her request and she received her print without delay.
Excellent experience. Highly recommended.
GUEST




I love my wedding photographs. Mike and Jill were so nice and we had a great time having them there as a part of our day. If you are looking for a photographer, I can promise you will be very happy with them and their work. I am still amazed at how beautiful our pictures turned out.
GUEST




I loved working with Jill and Mike. Not only were they super friendly and so easy to have with us all day on the wedding, the photographs they took were amazing. The photographs were more beautiful then I could have imagined. I was very impressed and would suggest them to everyone.
GUEST




We could not have been happier with Argento Photography. We had an outstanding experience with them. Mike and Jill we extremely easy to work with, accommodated all of our requests, and most importantly, took outstanding photos. We would recommend them highly to anyone. A++!!!
GUEST




Mike and Jill are second to none.
They have creative heart which is tough to find. My wedding did not go at all as planned ( rain at outdoor wedding with a last second venue change a brides nightmare ) one fantastic thing about the day is my photos. Which are simply stunning. Mike and Jill are not like some of the others that bail after you cut te cake.
They were there the whole night.
Advice: book early they are amazing and do an engagement shoot it really help build a relationship. We felt more at ease with them and more comfortable having a zillion pics taken.
GUEST




Be sure to give them a list of photos you must have, and assign someone in the wedding party to check in with them throughout the night to insure the requests are being met. Unfortunately, I have no formal pictures of my parents and I. Other than not getting that one picture that was important to me, they were awesome to work with and gave me almost 1000 perfect pictures.

After reading this we immediately went to your gallery to check this out, we couldn't believe that we missed this. For the bride there are formal images of both you and your parents together and individually at your parents house. For the groom they were taken at the church following the ceremony. Maybe you missed them when reviewing your gallery because there are so many ;)
We enjoyed spending the day with you!
GUEST




PROS - Mike and Jill are an excellent team, professional, easy to talk to and work with. Quality of the photos are excellent. The artistic visual ideas which come through them are awesome, creating amazing photos that are "romantic, artistic, and beautiful". Flexible, east to contact, very responsive to needs and questions. Overall, amazing!
CONS- the only thing I recommend that we "missed" is making sure you request to have all of your guests taken in your photos. Partially our fault for not making that clear, it is something you should definitely let them know as it may be overlooked. After seeing my photos, I wished they would have said something to me during the wedding time (as they have shot so many weddings, and may know the best photo strategies to get all the people at your wedding in the photos...) so, as I said,partially a glitch on my part, but make sure you tell them "Exactly" what you want. I also recommend the bride doing several shots in different places and lighting to get the best "in your dress" shot. We only got two pics of me in my dress by myself, and I didn't love them...So make sure to get at least 10-12 of these, but request this!
But overall, awesome, and I would definitely go back to Jill and Mike again in the future for other photography!

Mike and Jill created such beautiful memories for us to treasure for the rest of our lives. They each have unique viewpoints and capture moments in time like no other photographers I have seen. I get so many compliments on my wedding photos and I look at them often, even now three years later. I have recommended them to family, friends, and strangers!
GUEST




The Argento's were an absolute joy to work with. My family made so many comments after the wedding as to how unobtrusive, friendly, and easy to work with they were. The icing on the cake is the drop dead gorgeous photos that we have to treasure for a lifetime. Their work is truely art.
GUEST




We loved working with Mike & Jill. They were very quick to respond to any questions or concerns leading up to the wedding. On the day of the wedding Mike & Jill fit right in with our bridal party and guests. We had our "teaser" pictures before we returned from our honeymoon. The only disappointment was the turn-around time with our proofs- close to 4 months after our wedding- but it was excusable as soon as we saw them. The pictures were amazing and well worth the wait!
GUEST




We had a wonderful experience with Argento. The product we received was gorgeous and unlike any wedding photos I had ever seen at the time. As soon as I sat down with them, I knew they were the photographers for us!
After our wedding, we were flooded with compliments and I still get a "wowed" response from people when they look at our album.
I would (and have!) recommend them to a friend!
GUEST




The Argentos are a blast. They make you feel like you're old friends yet they aren't obtrusive in any way. The full day of photography is great beacuse you don't have to be worried about time at all since you have them all day.
The wait for even a sneak peak of the photos was a little hard. You are so excited to see even a few on a blog and most photogs will post them within a week or two, but we got married toward the end of the "season" and didn't get any images for months. Once we got the images, there were definitely enough to select from, but many of the photos were more traditional than we expected.
The other advice I would give clients is to schedule a meeting after you've chosen favorite photos to go over the album setup. We had briefly gone over albums at the initial consultation but that was over a year ago by the time we had the wedding and got the photos. Emailing on album design is not ideal and I would recommend an in-person meeting to finalize your album.
Overall, the Argentos were the easiest vendor we had to work with on the Big Day. They were laid back but very professional, and they kept us laughing and smiling all day long. They were amenable to any request we had for photos or scheduling. We wish we had a sneak peak of those awesome photos at least within a month, though. And definitely set up a meeting in person to deal with the album creation. :)
GUEST




They did a great job, but didn't get all the photos on my "Must" list. It took a while to get the proofs, but everyone has enjoyed looking at them. The proof presentation is great, and they give you full copyrights to the images.
GUEST




While Argento's portfolio is amazing, they really dropped the ball when photographing my wedding. I was disappointed that they failed to take a single full length shot of the bride in her dress. The majority of the photos they took were from so far away, the faces of the bride and groom could barely be seen. Sadly, the "amateur" shots taken by friends and family on their i-phones were MUCH better then the professional shots we paid an arm and a leg for.

Here is a link to Melissa & David's blog post just as we posted it 30 months prior to this review...

While art is subjective, Argento Photography feels that this blog post on it's own, contradicts this entire review. These images were chosen from nearly 1000 photos delivered to Melissa & David.
Mike and Jill were really nice. They shot amazing photos and blended perfectly into the group as I was getting everyone's hair and makeup done. I would defiantly recommend them to anyone!
