It all started when I sent a mass message request for quotes from various photographers around the Napa area. I had planned to do a surprise proposal for my now fiance and the responses I received were unhelpful and dry. Many responses were received such as "500 flat rate" or "not available". Well, Chris responded with a very thorough and inquiring message. He sent many many suggestions of places to propose at, what the area is like, what the staff is like ... man I can't name the countless details he has discussed with me. Point being, he went ABOVE AND BEYOND what nobody else would. I had a few places in mind to propose at, but these suggestions Christophe made were fantastic. I'm talking vast mountain views and intimate settings. Open vineyards as far as the eye can see where no one is around but just you and that special person. He has done us a 100/10 service in helping plan and set up the surprise engagement. Christophe is special to me in the way that he has made this whole process a comfortable and exciting one. I was very nervous throughout the whole process and due to some miscommunication, I was devastated but Chris cleared everything up for me and the other parties involved, and from there I knew he was a man with a good heart that only wants the best for his clients. In preparation of the surprise engagement, he gave very very thorough and specific details. Like, there's no way you can go wrong!! It was so comforting knowing step by step what I should do and how to help my fiance get the best shots without compromising the surprise in any way. In the end, my fiance was so happy about the whole engagement that we couldn't stop talking about Chris and the venue the whole ride back to our hotel. We seriously commend Christophe for his professionalism and attention to detail. If ever we return to the Napa area and need a photographer, we'll be hitting you up again Chris!! Thank you so much for a wonderful experience.

However, Christina sees through your nerves and gives you all the pointers you need to make your photos look effortlessly gorgeous. She is so hilarious and a blast to work with. She knows how to loosen you up and make you feel comfortable, sexy, and glamorous. We were a COVID couple and throughout the entire planning process, Christina was helpful, patient and understanding. When it came to our wedding day, we were fighting COVID, smoke in the air and loss of time for shooting due to the bride being late - shocker! Thankfully Christina did not skip a beat, and went into hyper speed. She is assertive, and makes quick but smart decisions, which is exactly what you need when you're losing light and trying to wrangle 15+ tipsy people. When we got our photos back, they absolutely took our breath away and we couldn't wait to share them with all our family and friends. She has an incredible eye, years of talent, and it all shows in the beautiful images she produces. If you are thinking of hiring Christina, stop thinking - and do it. It will be the the best decision you'll make while wedding planning.

I actually found Jennifer after searching online for photographers in San Francisco and her work immediately stood out. Her style felt fresh and unconventional -- more documentary and journalistic than traditional -- and I especially loved her use of black and white photography, which was a big reason we chose her. The day started at our hotel, where she jumped between our separate rooms to capture my wife and me getting ready. Before she had even gotten to our rooms, she had already scouted the perfect location for our first look. The moment was absolutely incredible, and she handled everything; we didn't have to do a thing but follow her lead. That professional confidence continued at City Hall. She has a masterful familiarity with the building. She took full control of the shoot, guiding us as she told us exactly where to stand, how to pose, and where to move next so we could just relax and enjoy the moment. As a photographer myself, I really appreciated her confidence and professionalism. All we had to do was follow instructions and be present. She knows San Francisco City Hall inside and out -- the lighting, the angles, the timing, and the key locations that truly matter -- every shot felt deliberate and it showed. The technical skill here is top-notch-- the compositions were beautiful, the balance of each frame was spot-on, and her gorgeous color grading. We received around 300 images, and the quality is so consistent that I plan to print every last one of them in large format to ensure we have a permanent physical archive. When we received the final package, we were so touched -- she sent our photos on a beautiful USB drive along with printed images, some sweets, and other thoughtful details. It was the perfect finishing touch to a genuinely wonderful experience. If you're getting married at City Hall -- or anywhere in San Francisco -- Jennifer Michelson / A Girl and a Camera is exceptional. Thank you Jennifer! Laura and Junior.

We started our session at a nice restaurant/bar in Napa and she captured some great photos of us. Our session went over a little bit longer because we had so much fun. She made us feel very comfortable the whole time. After the session, I received a few sneak peeks of our shoot the next day maybe because I bugged her a little bit (haha) but she was very responsive. I loved the photos so much that I could not stop looking at them (*happy cry* - hahaha). We shared the sneak peeks to our loved ones, and they loved them too! I would TOTALLY recommend her! We do look forward to working with her again in the future if we come back to Napa. In the meantime, I will be recommending her to future married couples, family, and friends.
