The day of our wedding, Krystal had a detailed timeline for us so that we could get every location we wanted in the park. I was worried that it would be stressful and cramped, but her positive energy and great directions actually made it really fun! I thoroughly enjoyed spending the day in the park with my fiancée and just playing around getting what I knew were great shots. She went above and beyond in every way. During the ceremony I don't even remember seeing her, and yet there are fabulous and intimate photos there. From the reception, she captured all the moments, including the toasts, first dance, father-daughter dance, and my guests having a great time. I will always cherish these priceless images of our best day ever.

We have had the pleasure of working with her several times before so hiring her to do our wedding this June was a "no brainer". She was very attentive and worked efficiently before and during the entire event. Her kind nature and sense of humor helped our entire wedding party loosen up for after ceremony/pre-cocktail pictures. We gave her a list of "must have" shots which she made her priority and offered great additional ideas for other posses and candid shots. She provided a wonderful photo booth with props for our wedding reception that everyone enjoyed. The pictures were great quality and printed immediately for our photo album guest book. It was a great way to provide fun favors for our guests. Carrie's energy was so upbeat. Even our vendors got involved, it was great!

Derek was always responsive and prompt in our interactions, and on the day of the shoot, Derek was so much more than I expected. He was friendly, professional, and kind, which made me feel comfortable as I was very nervous. The final results were breathtaking, and I couldn't believe it was me in the pictures.

My wife and I discovered Patrick back in 2023 when we were searching for a photographer to shoot…read moreour engagement in Yosemite Valley (a place that holds a lot of special memories for us). Patrick's work immediately stood out to us because it was clear that he was able to capture not just his subjects but the landscape in a way that suggested intimate knowledge and even love for the nature of Yosemite. So, we had high expectations for his ability as an artist going in, but we were pleasantly surprised at how well we vibed with him as a person, too. Patrick made our day-long photoshoot easy and fun, and really brought out the joy of our engagement. And of course, the pictures were stunning. When we decided to get married in Big Sur two years later, our first decision (after the location, anyway) was asking Patrick to shoot our wedding. Patrick wasn't just our photographer but also our partner in planning to make sure we captured not only our special memories, but also the rugged beauty of Big Sur. The final photographs are beyond anything we could have imagined. Patrick's pictures were not just visually impressive - they were emotionally resonant. We will treasure our pictures and the memories we created with him for a lifetime. If you are looking for a photographer who is not only incredibly talented but also a wonderful person to work with, I cannot recommend Patrick Pike Studios highly enough. He is, simply put, the best. If you want photographs in Yosemite, you should work with him, and if you can convince him to work somewhere else, you should do that too. I guess we have to start thinking about where we should drag Patrick for a five-year anniversary photoshoot...
