Albiola Photography and Videography

Jon was awesome! We had him fly to Maui for our wedding video service. He was very nice and professional. We absolutely love how the video came out! Jon really knows how to make the video epic. His post production skills are top notch.

We were thoroughly impressed with Jon from start to finish. He was always quick to respond via email, polite, and professional. When we were able to meet him in person on our wedding day he and his team were super friendly, easy to work with and so nice! It really helped to make me feel calm on my wedding day and they were never in the way.
When we got our wedding video we were SO amazed at his talent and artistry! It was soooo beautiful and it made us cry! Very high quality.
I would definitely recommend Jon and his crew to any of my friends in a heartbeat!

We were so impressed by how great our engagement photos in Hawaii turned out, that we hired Albiola Photography to fly out to shoot our wedding in Chicago. We definitely made the right choice to go with them. Despite Chicago’s volatile weather of thunderstorms one minute to 95 degrees and humid the next, Jon and his team managed to capture beautiful shots as if weather was not an issue. He surely saved our wedding and exceeded our expectations. We are thankful for the spectacular photographs of the city scapes, the ceremony and candid shots at the yacht club reception. He even got an awesome photo of us in the Navy Pier fireworks that we didn’t even know he was taking. He just seemed to be at the right place at the right time. Throughout our whole experience, my guests and especially my bridesmaids were impressed by his way of making you feel comfortable while he is shooting. I’m most impressed by their ability to beautifully shoot in different locations (Chicago and Hawaii) We would highly recommend Albiola Photography to capture the true moments of a wedding, or any special moment for that matter. Kudos to these guys!!!

Jon’s photography is just different. Whether its the artistic elements, hidden within the picture, or Jon’s careful preparation to set up a perfect shot, its clear that he’s an experienced professional with passion for his art.
Anyone can snap a selfie, or wide angle shot with a go pro, but if you’re looking for a professional for that wedding or special event, you can trust Albiola photography.
I’ve also checked out his facebook shots, and I appreciate his eye for colors, patterns, and focus. I’ve been the subject of conversation more than a few times thanks to pictures Jon has taken. Great pictures are invaluable and I encourage anyone looking for a professional photographer to reach out and contact Jon for your next event.

Jon, Erika, and the team at Albiola Photography and Videography were an absolute pleasure to work with. They were extremely helpful in answering my questions prior to the big day and also quick to respond, which was great as I was coordinating from the Mainland. In addition, they were very flexible and able to modify our wedding package to meet our needs. On the day of our wedding the team was arrived early and stayed until I was positive I had all the photos I desired. What was spectacular was that there was such a quick turnover time in preparing our photos and compiling our video. We were able to have the files ready to show our family/​friends at our reception back home a couple weeks later. Jon did such a great job capturing the day that when our guests viewed photos/​video, they felt that they were actually in Hawaii with us! Albiola Photography was wonderful to work with, their photos were breathtaking, and the video they created was magnificent. I recommend them highly!

My fiancé and I just did an engagement shoot with Albiola Photography and we are BEYOND in love with the photos. From the very first time I contacted Jon, he was prompt in returning all of my emails, answering all of my questions, and was more than flexible in making sure we got what we wanted on the day of our photo shoot. We met Jon at our pre-​arranged location (Magic Island) only to find that the island had been completely roped off for 4^th of July firework preparations. At first, I was a little bummed out and wondered what we would do… but, in true Hawaii style of going with the flow, Jon maintained a wonderfully positive, professional attitude and made sure we would get some great shots in a different location by getting creative and improvising. The result couldn’t have been better! We re-​located to Ala Moana Beach where the sunset was perfect and we got a rainbow to boot! Jon took his time with us, listened to all of our ideas, and was very fun to work with. He let us know right away how long it would take to process the photos and when we could expect to receive them. We received our photos sooner than expected, and we couldn’t be happier with the final product. Mahalo Jon and Erika for providing an outstanding service and memories that will last a lifetime!!!

Jon and crew are absolutely amazing. During the prep, wedding, and reception they were so kind and respectful, they never got in the way of what was happening, they had great ideas for photos and an eye for the scenery, and they were just so pleasurable to deal with. Most importantly though, the photography and video turned out perfectly, so much better than I ever could have imagined. They captured the true beauty of the day and the people involved and we couldn’t have asked for more. I would recommend them to absolutely anyone.

Best experience ever! Working with Albiola Photography was a wondeful, stress-​free experience. Our photographer for our vow renewal ceremony was Chris Laistler, and he was absolutely amazing to work with! Let me give you folks a complete run down of my entire experience so you can truly feel how amazing this company is. First of all, I found this company through Unilocal.I visitited the Albiola website and was pleased with the sample photos and especially the pricing options. Please, if you have a budget to work with, let them know. They are willing to work with you! I shot an email over to them and in no time Jon Albiola returned my email, answered my questions, and was working with me to book exactly what I wanted. I was doing a 5 year vow renewal ceremony and wanted to make sure the moment was caputred perfectly since my husband and I had eloped 5 years ago. Jon was always very prompt in returning emails. I mean he would answer me the same day I emailed him, and as you all know, that is rare in business. I paid my deposit, and the balance wasn’t due till a week before the ceremony (I think). Anyway, I wanted him to run the entire payment sooner than that so I could be done with that bill, and he went ahead and did so. Chris, our photographer assigned to us, then contacted us to let me know he was our photographer and to answer any questions or concerns we had. He told me he would be coming an hour early to the event to get familiar with the venue and what not. On the day of our event, our photographer was already there waiting for us! That was a very pleasant surprise. He was very joyful, had a wonderfully positive attitude, and seemed genuinely as excited and happy about taking our pictures as we were about having our picutes taken! He did not rush us or make us feel uncomfortable in any way. He listened to my ideas for photos and also did some on his own which all came out BEAUTIFULLY!!! Perhaps the most amazing thing about my experience is that we got all of our photos, all edited to make it perfect, in less than a week after our event! I’m not sure if this is typical, but in my case, it was a pleasant surprise, again. I do not have a single complaint with this company. If you are looking for a high quality product, excellent customer service, great prices, professionalism, and prompt responses, Albiola Photography is the comany you absolutely need to choose.

When it comes to a photographer, Jon is definitely as good as it gets. So far he has captured my wedding day as well as a special 3-​generation photo shoot with my Mom, my daughter and myself. I am beyond thrilled with my wedding photos (and video) and am so excited to have the photos of my Mom with me and my newborn. He does a great job of making you feel relaxed behind the camera which allows for fantastic, naturally beautiful photos to develop. If you have an event that you want to remember forever, don’t trust anyone but Jon Albiola to capture the memory for you. I will definitely use him again in the future for all of my photography needs.

Both my husband and I had such a pleasant experience working with Jon Albiola. Before leaving Hawaii, we wanted to take post wedding pictures in Ko’olina and capture those newly wed moments that are priceless. We chose Albiola Photography because we felt very comfortable after our initial consultation, and felt that Jon really understood our requirements and the vibe we were going for. Most people don’t realize how important this is to a successful photo shoot.
Well, after seeing the results it was pretty apparent that they not only exceeded our expectations, but made us feel special, important, and valued throughout the process. The lighting and quality of our photos were simply amazing. We highly recommend Albiola Photography to anyone looking for a memorable experience and quality results.

In addition to our official wedding photographer Jon took some pictures of the ceremony and reception. He didn’t just capture the event, he captured our mood and facial expressions, which I thought told a great story. Jon has a unique ability to see different viewpoints through a lens. Subsequently, Jon and his colleague Ryan conducted a Trash the Dress photo session for us, which was done in our pool. They were very professional throughout the process and made us feel comfortable swimming in our wedding attire. We loved the pictures and continue to get many compliments! Jon gave us the pictures in a timely manner and was very responsive in all of our inquiries. We would definitely recommend Albiola Photography for all types of events.
