Reviews of Eloquent Studios (Photo Studio)

Lisa Podhayny

5 stars are not enough for Walter and the Eloquent Studios team! From our engagement shoot, to the engagement shoot guest book, to the wedding and the post-wedding services Eloquent Studios has FAR exceeded our expectations. My husband and I couldn't be happier. Walter has AMAZING photography skills and is a true professional. He goes above and beyond to make sure you don't have to worry about a thing on your wedding day. I am still floored by how amazing everything turned out. And beyond the photos and video for our wedding - this team made our day SO memorable. They are amazing people who really care about what they do and the bride and groom they're working with. I smile every time I think about working with Walter. I CANNOT recommend Eloquent Studios enough!

The people at Eloquent were awesome to have on our wedding day. We had a very vibrant wedding in June 2018 with extra little quirks and Polish traditions everywhere and I feel like they really captured the vibe we were going for as our theme. They were always very responsive when we emailed questions and really helped figure out timelines for the day of. I liked that we went with w different photographer than the ones suggested at the venue as they took different kinds of pictures that weren't commonly shown off at the venue. I really like some of the silhouettes that we got. We would definitely recommend them to future couples.

My husband and I used Eloquent Studios for photography, videography, DJ and photo booth. Walter and his team were extremely professional and well organized. Our special day ran smoothly because of Walter's attention to detail! I was very pleased with our decision to use them for everything and would recommend them to anyone! The photos are a beautiful reminder of our perfect day!

Call and make an appointment. Walter was helpful and creative. Chris was the best photographer in the world. I couldn't be happier. I met them at a bridal show and got to see the photo booth first hand. It was a complete hit at the wedding. Check out the website or make an appointment and you can probably have everything done by them. They do more than just photos. Be up front bout financial or personal situations and they will accommodate or come up with other ideas that you ever would have thought of. They really know what their doing and Im glad I had them to work with and support me rather than having all of the guests take a million unflattering photos of me that I probably wouldn't be happy with.

As a long-time volunteer for Susan G. Komen North Jersey, I’ve worked very closely with Walter and Eloquent Studios many times; they’ve been one of our official photographers for our major events since 2015. Like me (a PR and Marketing professional), Walter volunteers for our events, and is very generous with his time and resources. In addition to providing high quality professional photos for us, Eloquent Studios also manages photo booths for us at our events and everyone really loves getting their free souvenir photo taken by Walter and his staff. The feedback we’ve gotten from everyone is always extremely positive. The crazy, multi-faceted, many-things-going-on-at-one-time kinds of events we do requires a photographer that is on his/her toes every moment to ensure we get those “one chance” photos, but who also has the creativity to effectively capture the feeling and spirit of the day. Walter never misses a shot, and I know that once I’ve let him know what I need, I don’t have to worry about it. He’s super great at both the “spot on” kind of stop-action photography we need for marketing and publicity, AND taking photos that beautifully capture the spontaneity of the event--the “moments.” Walter and Eloquent Studios have never let us down. They are the best there is… LOVE working with him!

We hired Eloquent Studios to perform photography and DJ services at our July wedding at the Brooklake Country Club. Walter, our photographer, was a preferred vendor for our venue and his experience showed by taking amazing shots throughout. We had him for 7 hours of shooting and were able to get all the shots we wanted and then some. We appreciated the quick turnaround in receiving the photos as well. Victor, our DJ, was amazing as well. We were able to sit down with him and talk about everything we needed from ceremony, cocktail, and reception music. He was able to adapt to last minute changes as well, which we were very happy about. All in all, my wife and I enjoyed the Eloquent Studios experience.

Eloquent studios went above and beyond for our wedding!! Starting with our engagement shoot to photobooth fun at the wedding to our wedding photos and videos. The staff at eloquent studios are so friendly and easy going to work with. Very professional and gets the job done. All our questions were answered in a timely manner and they gave us many suggestions and ideas for the wedding day. Eloquent studios handled our photography, videography, dj, and photobooth. Having one vendor do it all was a HUGE selling point for us when selecting our vendors. Highly recommend to anyone who is looking for vendors for their upcoming weddings/events. Thank you Walter for making our wedding planning and wedding day run so smoothly.

We are pleased to report we hired Eloquent Studios recently to photograph our daughters engagement party! Ivana was our photographer and she was on time and dressed in a lovely way, she was friendly and helpful and asked all the right questions to make sure the day was captured in the way that was important to us! She was quiet and gentle yet very good at gathering people for the photos we wanted, but most of all, the pictures she took and the moments she captured were absolutely stunning! We could not be happier with the quality of the color and clarity and moments she photographed which will become some of our favorite family photographs of all time! I cannot recommend Eloquent Studios and their services highly enough.

Eloquent studios was very helpful when it came to our wedding day. We used them for a photo-booth, uplighting and a monogram. The photo-booth was so much fun for our guests and the best part was we received a scrap book at the end of all of the photos from the photo-booth with notes from our friends and family.

Eloquent Studios knocked it out of the park! I cannot say enough great things about Walter and his staff! My husband and I booked several of our services through Eloquent Studios – photography, video, piano player, photo booth, and DJ services. Each service Walter and his team provided exceeded our expectations. He is a true professional that has your best interest in mind. Before we decided to use Eloquent Studios or any event services we did our homework. After reading everyone's review, we decided to go with Eloquent Studios based on all of the positive experiences. Their services made our day much easier by making everything a 1-stop shop. We didn't have to worry about coordinating DJ, piano, video and photography professionals because Walter took care of everything for us. Our photographer (Walter) is very creative, intelligent, and has been doing this for years. He is always thinking about the end goal; how to provide you with the best service and the best end results so you get what you paid for. His pictures exceeded our expectations, which is what he promised us the very first day when we came to hire him for our wedding. In the end Walter wants everyone to be happy and we definitely feel like he delivered on his promise. I would also like to add that Walter has a wonderful sense of humor and both our families definitely loved him for it. Walter is the BEST! The Eloquent Studios DJs were great. They played everything that we wanted plus other songs that fit into our evening. Everyone enjoyed the live drums and cymbals. The dance floor was always crowded. At the end of the night the DJ thanked us and gave us a CD with our event songs. That was a great little touch that really made us know we made the right choice for our DJ. We also hired our pianist through Eloquent Studios (Beth). She was great and added that extra little touch during our cocktail hour. Our guests also loved the photo booth for the wonderful pictures/keepsakes that they were able to take home with them at the end of the night. Having never been married before, you don't know what to expect when you hire professional services. Like everything else for your wedding day there are lots of details to be planned out (and papers to sign). Once all of that is done, enjoy it and let the experienced people from Eloquent Studios do what you pay them to do; deliver a great production and enhance beautiful memories of your day for the rest of your life. If you want a professional attitude, good communication, great video production, awesome music, and beautiful pictures go with Eloquent Studios services. I highly recommend them!

Walter and his team were AMAZING!!! We definitely presented him with a challenge having a large wedding party, but he managed to wrangle the troops and snap such memorable moments. Everywhere I turned throughout the night, Walter or a member of the team was there to capture what what was going on. He even stayed afterwards and bought my husband and I a drink at the after party! He shared a few teaser photos with us a few days after the wedding, and they were remarkable. I would recommend Eloquent Studios time and time again!! BEST photographer/videographer!!

Disclaimer: We did not end up hiring this company due to an extremely uncomfortable confrentation between Walter and my fiance. While the company truly does take beautiful photos, the level of professionalism leaves much to be desired. We did much negotiating with Walter and he did do a very good job of meeting our requests but when it was time to review the contract.....that was problematic. My fiance wanted to take a closer look at the terms and conditions and Walter was extremely upset when we asked to review the terms and conditions. He claimed that it was because he did not want us running to his competitors with it. However, he was claiming it was standard. If that was the case there was nothing that his competitors would have taken advantage of. He was also extremely pushing about the timing. He was not really willing to give us a lot of time to think over the agreement. I found all of this very unsettling, however I was willing to sign with him anyway. Until he got confrentational with my fiance. I had read several reviews on Yelp that said he could be like that, and since I had yet to experience that side of him I chose to believe what I had been seeing (which was actually quite nice despite the pushiness). But at the end of the day we just could not have our photographer being so confrentational with my fiance. So buyer beware. Form your own opinon but beware of what could possibly happen if he gets a little push back.

Walter and his team at Eloquent Studios nailed it! We hired Walter to do the photography for our wedding, and we cannot recommend him enough. He is such a professional, and really takes his job seriously (but in a good way!). He helped us create a schedule for the day of and then helped us stick to it. We had such large parties (9 on each side) that it was hard to have everyone on time and in place, but he made it happen! He helped crack jokes and make us laugh when there was a scheduling error on the venue side. His work is beautiful, and we highly recommend Walter and his team for any of your photography needs. Thank you Walter! - Maddie and Andrew

Walter Far Exceeded our expectations! Our daughter was married this past Saturday October 27th at the Bridgewater Marriott and the weather was not in our favor. However, it was Walter and Jasmin to the rescue! We were able to do our photographs all around the hotel, lobby, rooms and when there was a break in the rain- they were able to take pictures outside. When people write a review, sometimes the words your reading aren’t enough. So as I write this and you read my review, please understand and get a sense of the emotion in which I’m expressing... When I walked outside of the hotel to see some of the pictures being taken, I was shocked to see Walter literally laying on the ground to capture a perfect moment! That is dedication, respect and a person who does way above and beyond to make their clients happy. If you are looking for a photographer who is kind, patient, professional and who will far exceed your expectations, then look no further because it’s Walter. My husband and I couldn’t be happier with choosing Eloquent Studios. From start to finish the whole process was seamless. We can’t thank you enough!

The professionals at Eloquent Studios are simply AMAZING! They really are more than photographers. From the beginning through to the end they offered endless support, advice and guidance. On the day itself we felt safe in their hands and it was like having two friends there with you ! Their experience and professionalism shines through, allowing you to relax and have the time of your life! As the maid of honor, that made my job a whole lot easier! I recently saw a sneak peek of some photos from the big day and couldn’t be happier with the results! They are seriously talented and genuinely love what they do. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND ELOQUENT STUDIOS for your wedding or special event. You won’t be disappointed ! They have captured memories that will be cherished forever!!!

We loved working with Walter & his staff at Eloquent Studios. From the minute we met with Walter, we knew we were in good hands and made the right choice. His experience and professionalism made him easy to work with. His knowledge of our venue helped make our pictures special. Walter’s turnaround on our proofs were quick. We can’t thank Walter enough for helping make our wedding day so special and memorable!

We worked with Walter leading up to and during the night of our wedding. Walter was a pure pleasure to work with - extremely professional and respectful of what we wanted, while also being flexible as we changed our minds about certain poses and pictures. Our wedding was at the Palace and he knew the property extremely well and was able to take some beautiful photographs during that day and into the evening. I can't reiterate enough on how professional he was, making sure we got all of the shots we had requested and juggling our large families. I couldn't be happier with having him as our photographer!

We hired Walter's crew for photography, photo booth and DJ/emcee at our daughter's bat mitzvah. They are extremely organized with simple questionnaires that helped guide everything we wanted for our event. Through an in-person meeting, they helped get down to the crucial details that really made our day run seamlessly. Walter had super attention to detail with the weather and sunshine to ensure our pictures came out great. The music service - led by Victor - kept our tremendous group of kids and adults engaged and having fun the entire time, and the photo booth brought such a great vibe to the room and made for a great add to the party favors. We were thoroughly pleased with services provided by Eloquent Studios and would recommend them.
