John Arcara Photography is a second generation photography studio, so the craft is in their DNA. They've seen it all, and know that when a couple is comfortable, that's when they shine. Their playful and contemporary style through photojournalistic images, gives you that space to breathe. They subtly direct rather than suggest awkward poses.
The editorial, cinematic feel for the films is the way you would shoot a hollywood movie. They let you be the star you're supposed to be on your big day. When they worked together, the goal is to foster a strong connection and gain a true understanding of the couple's vision so they can make it a reality.

John & Lovina met back in 2000 through friends while Lovina was the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City studying Marketing & Advertising. John & Lovina were one of the first husband and wife photography teams in the area. They started shooting weddings together when they were just dating and it has been a fascinating experience.

John Arcara, Rich, and Mark Conte were quite the photographers/filmmakers. The three together did not miss a thing at my daughter, Rachael, and her new husband, Adam’s, wedding (6-16-19). They made us all feel relaxed and made every part of the photography aspect go seamless. Every person’s pictures came out perfect. One photo is more gorgeous than the next! Not sure how they are going to be able to select her favorites for her photo album. I would recommend John Arcara for any event! Thank you for making our daughter’s wedding so magical.

As a DJ entertainer at the SCE event group, I work with photographers every single weekend. When it comes to true professionals, you have to check out John and Lavina! Hands-down, these two rock! They really go the extra mile. John is definitely a master at his craft! When I am hosting a wedding, and I see Jon Walk in, I know it's going to be a great evening! He is so fun to work with, he has a vision! If you're looking for a professional, unique, top-notch photographer, John Arcara photography is the way to go! If you notice up top, there is a photo of the entire SCE crew in wedding dresses! LOL

What a blessing it was to have John and his team capturing our engagement/wedding. He made the process so easy, comfortable and fun. He has the best energy that is contagious and so helpful. He made me feel so special. He knew all the right places for pictures, also open to anything I suggested too. I had a big bridal party w/different personalities and he handled all of us swiftly and effortlessly. During the reception you barely even knew his team was around, allowing us to be natural and enjoy our night, which are the best shots. He really gets in there, I laugh because in one video he is in

We heard about John Arcara through a bride and groom we met at a local bar in Red Bank during the Wedding Walk in March. After finishing our beers, we journeyed across the street and were greeted by the lovely Lovina. After seeing the work and meeting her we were impressed, but she insisted we make an appointment to come back and meet John so we could get a better feel for the company as a whole. She was very helpful and up-front about availability and pricing, so after we set our date two weeks later I contacted them immediately to set up an appointment.

Booking John Arcara for our wedding photography services was by far, the best decision I made for our wedding (other than saying yes!) John and his partner brought a level of energy and enthusiasm that went well beyond expectations; he made our family and bridal party feel so at ease, and I got at least 3 requests for his information!
But the most important part of course, the photos. Which are so stunning, evocative and rich that I get emotional every time I see them. I love having such a breathtaking record of our special day. Run, don't walk to John!
