Michael Bambino & Co.

I Loved working with Michael Bambino and his staff. My photographer was Anne. She happens to be a family friend but she was not the reason we went with Bambino. They are honestly the best in the city. You get so much for your money. The photographers are amazing. One thing that really stands out with Michael Bambino besides the fact that he is the nicest guy I have ever met, he gives you the copy write to your photos. Trust me its a big deal. You get a 5X7 print of each picture (about 900 pictures) and the copy write! which means you can get more copies printed at walgreens or any other photo processing store for much much less. I would recommend that you purchase the dvd of pictures for 150.00 if you plan on ordering more prints or want to post them online. It saves a lot of time instead of having to scan each picture. He also offers wedding videos. A big must! They only do 40 videos a year because of the time an effort that goes into them. They are amazing and you will never get tired of wathing it! Included in your wedding day package you also get your engagment pictures and michael Bambino does them himself. He is someone you should really check out. You won't be sorry!

Anne was AMAZING!!!! The entire staff blew my socks off. Easy to communicate with, very personable, and just wonderful all around!! You will fall in love with Michael and his staff. Just AMAZING!

Michael and his crew are great at what they do! They make anybody and any picture look like they just came out of a magazine! They make you feel very comfortable. My husband and his family are very shy and Michael was able to bring them out of their shell and show their true colors. They are exciting and fun to work with! I highly recommend them!

Bova was my particular photographer for my wedding and we LOVED him. He was so insanely helpful to me. He even carried hairspray to spray my flyaways down - how awesome is that!? If I needed a mirror, he had that too! Seriously, such a great experience. I wasn't overly picky about what photos I HAD TO HAVE, I am not really that way, but I KNOW that he captured my day better than I can even imagine! Working with the company up to the wedding was great to, no complaints, everyone was nice and very professional.

We loved working with Michael Bambino & Co. They provided excellent customer service and great pictures! Everyone was supportive and excited about our wedding. I know they sell a service but it is nice to have such positive customer service, especially when we ran into some other vendors that acted like we were "just another couple." I frequently communicated to Bella, the assistant studio manager, and she was always quick with a response and extremely upbeat and polite. Having been in working in customer-service related fields for approx. 13 years, and having studied Communications & PR, I cannot stress enough how great it is when a business overdelivers on their service. This is important to me in my job and it's important to this studio.Michael shot our engagement session and made us feel very relaxed. He offered helpful hints for taking our best pictures and worked with us on our location. From Michael's studio, we chose Robert Ramundo and his colleague, Kim, to shoot our wedding. They did a fantastic job. At the meeting prior to our wedding, Robert listened to our concerns regarding pictures - angles, locations, timeline, etc. - and addressed them well. On our wedding day, we went to a few locations and Robert helped the timeline flow smoothly. During the ceremony and reception, most of the time, we couldn't even tell the photogs were there...they were just blended into the background taking photos..and they got several great shots. Of course, there were a few times Robert asked if he could borrow us for photos, but he & Kim are so efficient, it really didn't take long. We consider this our best wedding experience and would highly recommend this studio and these photographers.

We had the pleasure of having Michael as our Photographer. He was extremely easy to work with. Our engagement pictures were amazing and everyone loved our pictures. He was so full of energy on the day of the wedding and the entire wedding party had a ball during our pictures. Our wedding pictures also came out amazing. The quality of our pictures exceeded our expectations and we couldn't be happier. He was by far our best vendor and definitely worth every penny we paid for him!

Out of all the vendors i worked with for my wedding, Michael Bambino & Co was the best! they were extremely easy to work with and i never had to worry about a thing with them! Rob made a long day full of pictures fun for all of us!

Michael Bambino is truly an artist when it comes to wedding photography and videography. It was a great pleasure to have him be my photographer. All of his staff are wonderful, helpful, and dedicated to their clients. They go above and beyond what other photographers in the industry would do. They really try to capture the essence of each moment on your wedding day.

My husband and I spent some time visiting different photographers to shoot our New Year's Eve wedding. To be honest I never really thought about what makes a good photographer until I started talking with several and looking at their work. We had met a few different people in the area and were completely cheesed out by the pitches we were given. Then we went to Michael Bambino's studio and spoke with him. We could tell immediately that this was the person that we wanted to have photograph our wedding. Honestly he didn't try (or have to) sell himself. He has a genuine passion for taking pictures and an infectiously fun personality. We spoke several times before the wedding and the day of went so smoothly. Michael and Kim photographed our wedding day. They were a pleasure to have around and made my husband and I along with our guests feel comfortable and excited. They were so good that most of the time we didn't even know they were there, they just did their thing. I just looked at the pictures and can't keep from smiling. I've probably looked at them a million times today and am still just amazed. We had such a great time at our wedding and we wish that feeling could last forever. The photographs Michael and Kim took will allow us to remember this day for the rest of our lives. I am excited to know that these will be the pictures that are passed from generation to generation in our family. Now I just need to come up with another event that I need photographed so that I can work with Michael again!

Michael Bambino & Co are OUTSTANDING!!! Their talent, professionalism, and passion for making our wedding day so special was priceless. Mark and Laurie Mason were our photographers for our wedding day! They were absolutely amazing. They kept us calm and made us feel relaxed before our ceremony began. They were also so fun to work with while shooting our wedding party after the ceremony!Michael Bambino took our engagement pictures and "after the I do's." His work is incredible! He is a blast to work with and makes the photo sessions extra special.The work these photographers do is top-notch. They are worth every penny and then some!!! I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND them to anyone getting married :)

Michael and his photo journalist were very comforting for someone who is shy about taking pictures. They meet with you to go over all of the shots you want to get and help you plan your schedule for your wedding day. They also specialize in setting a scene and capturing the bride seeing the groom for the first time before the ceremony if that is acceptable. That is what we decided to do, and I feel the pictures are much better becuase we still had daylight!

Michael is amazing. He was our photographer along with his assistant. When I first met with him I LOVED his studio. It's absolutely gorgeous. He is also a big sweetheart. He's very nice and you feel at ease with him. For the engagement pictures I was a little scared because my husband and I are not that photogenic. Even if we look great, in our pictures it looks awful so I thought we might like maybe 1 or 2 of the pictures he took, but when we met with him we were shocked. My husband and I went through the pictures a few times at the studio and then a ton more at home and we loved every single picture which is a huge deal for us. I was so excited I just kept telling him, if these are this great, I wonder what the wedding pictures will look like. Michael is more on the expensive side but for something like photography it's worth the extra expense. He made us both feel at ease, and although I haven't got to see the actual pictures yet, I'm sure they'll be great. I also went with Michael for videography too, I will write that review once I see the video. But one of our groomsman who goes to school for video says he noticed he was using an HD camera.

Michael Bambino and his staff were AMAZING! They captured every moment of my wedding. They started with us a noon and lasted until after midnight. Michael's enthusiasm and personality make the day fun, relaxing, and enjoyable. Everyone at our wedding was raving about 'the great Bambino.' He was awesome and would recommend him to everyone.

We worked with both Anne and Michael, they were fantastic! I can't say enough good things about them! Yes they are expensive but the pictures and video's they produce are well worth it! The day flies by and having amazing pictures and video's to help remember the day is worth all the money in the world!!

Amazing pictures, and customer service! We hired Michael knowing we would have exceptional service and quality pictures. We were thrilled, and he made us very comfortable and relaxed. He and his staff will go above and beyond. Hire him, you will not be disappointed!!!!

There is only one thing to say, BAMBINO! The saying is true, “A picture speaks 1,000 words!” After looking at several photographers for what we THOUGHT we wanted for our wedding day, we met THE AMAZING, THE DYNAMIC, THE BEST, Michael Bambino! We knew that we did not want our wedding party to be bored by some stranger just hired to take our pictures. Our kids even fell in love with him!!! Michael, Kim, and Shane were our photo journalist for our day. The absolute “Dream Team”! Their energy is contagious and I felt like a model all day. Their work speaks volumes! Even, perfect strangers have cried just from seeing our engagement pictures. I can only imagine how fantastic the wedding shots will be. His company is professional, curious, and so thoughtful. My husband surprised me with videography from Michael Bambino & Co. as a wedding gift. Even after he had let the secret out, they refused to confess that is was my gift. WAY TO GO TEAM! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND MICHAEL BAMBINO & CO!!! It gets no better than this! Kudos! LaToshua and Greg JohnsonJuly 2010

Love Bambino and his crew! They know how to make things fun and relaxed =) Haven't seen our pictures yet but he was the photographer for my sister's wedding a couple years ago and they are gorgeous.

Michael Bambino & Co. is the best you can get. The moment my fiancé and I met with him for the initial interview, we knew we wanted to use his studio. Not only is the final product phenomenal, but also, all the people there are fantastic. Bambino did our engagement pictures, which we loved and used for numerous things leading up to the wedding. We had a blast. Robert Ramundo was our wedding photographer, and he and Ashley did an incredible job on the wedding day. We had figured out the entire schedule at least a week in advance, and they essentially stuck to the schedule all day, despite the blazing heat outside. Plus, they made everyone feel very comfortable and excited about the pictures we were taking. We love the way they turned out, and we would definitely recommend Michael Bambino & Co. to anyone who wants a professional team with beautiful work.

We worked with both Michael Bambino and Anne Marin, who are both excellent photographers. We interviewed several photographers in the Cincinnati area, but only Michael and Anne brought the professionalism we wanted to the table. They produced gorgeous photographs for both our engagement and our wedding, and were totally flexible - since it was raining the day of our wedding, Michael even offered to shoot some more photos outside at a later date for no cost. They were also both incredibly enthusiastic about our wedding concept - my husband and I are both in theatre, and chose to do a non-traditional ceremony as "A Marriage in Three Acts." They were the only photographers who understood us entirely, and were totally on board with everything we wanted to do. I would highly recommend them for magazine-worthy photos.

Yes Bambino Photography is expensive, but the care they give their customers makes it well worth it. These photographyers well shower you with support and advice whenever asked. You get rights to your photos, so you can make as many of your own copies of the photos without going through a middle man. This, when done correctly, saves you tons of cash, and spares you frustration. (as if planning a wedding wasn't enough...)The photographers at Bambino photography have a great deal of experience, and skill. Every photo of the 600 I recieved was beautiful, and captured the emotion of the day. They know photography is about art.

After interviewing several photographers, we decided to go with Bambino because of their professionalism, experience, and the great reviews we saw online. Honestly, if I could do it all over again, I would go with a different photographer. Everyone at the studio was very nice, but ultimately I was disappointed with our experience and photos.It's partially my fault because I went to Bambino's site and saw the amazing photos there. After describing the kind of photos we wanted (candid, story-telling, creative, etc.), Bambino suggested a photographer, and we trusted his suggestion. I should have asked to see that particular photographer's portfolio first. I really wanted to do photos of us getting ready for the day... detailed photos of the dress, artsy photos of getting hair done, groomsmen goofing around, etc. We were quickly talked out of doing that because we were told it was a "waste of time". Also, I made it clear that I didn't like posed, traditional photos. I really wanted candid photos that captured the feel of the day. I also pointed out several photos to our photographer and the photographer assured us they could do that. The photos we got were just photos of people in groups posing and smiling. Then there were photos of us... posing. That's it. Also, I'm not overly picky about getting certain photos, but I do wish they would have reminded us to do our bouquet and garter toss before they left, but they didn't... so we don't have photos of that. Last, the candid/assistant photographer didn't stay during the reception... the best time to get candid photos. I thought we had paid to have 2 photographers together for 8 hours. When we asked about this after the wedding, we were told that the assistants usually leaves early and the main photographer stays during the reception.I've been in and to several weddings since ours. I've seen some amazing photos that really capture the feel of the wedding instead of just documenting who was at the wedding. Their photographers were there the WHOLE time... getting ready, in the limo, ceremony, reception, and CANDID photos of people getting crazy on the dance floor. Their photographers took care of the day... making sure to get photos of everything they wanted... and more. Also, these friends paid the same or even less for their photos than we did.The photos on Bambino's site are actually a great example of the style of photos we wanted. I should mention that Michael did an "after wedding" session with us several months after our wedding, and they turned out great. They were exactly the style of photography we were looking for. I wish we could have afforded to have Michael take our photos. Unfortunately, not all of the photographers working for Bambino have his style. Just make sure you know know exactly what you're getting before paying a ton of money for their photography.

I really enjoyed working with this company. They were positive, upbeat, and very personable without interfering on your special day. I was happy with the service of both of my photographers. However, for the price, I do not think the photos were worth it. They were good, but just not outstanding like I imagined them to be. I think there are other places that are just as expensive or less with better quality. But overall, they did a good job.

Michael is an Artist, pure and simple. I see many photographers, but none that work as hard a capturing special moments without them looking "posed". A quick look at his photos, and anyone can see this man and his staff love what they do. That's the difference.

First class photography and videography. Michael and his crew are astute and very talented in thier field!

If you are looking for a professional, enthusiastic and caring photographer that takes great pictures while being easy going and fun on your wedding day, then Michael Bambino and Co. is for you! We highly recommend them.
