She is the baby whisperer! Lol. How she could wrap her in all these positions and make her look just gorgeous is beyond me, ha! The biggest bonus was that Marisa had all the props, wraps and headbands and had really nice backdrops! I didn't have to bring a thing! The headbands she had were all custom made and so beautiful. Marisa captures some truly precious moments. We now have a family photographer for life. You will not find a more creative, fun, and talented photographer.

You captured my day so beautifully. No detail was left unnoticed. My guests raved about you and how you were EVERYWHERE. My special day came and went so fast, and i will forever have my photos to look back on and cherish always. Your professionalism, energy, and attention to detail is out of this world. I seriously cannot thank you enough for all you did for me . Flawless work! You exceedes my expectations and then some. She came highly recommended and i was not let down.

Celia and Sthiv have been photographing us since 2023. We were Originally shooting a fall family…read moresession & it turned into a baby announcement once they heard we were expecting baby #2. My 2 year old was in a mood that day but Celia got her to come out of her shell & they captured such adorable pictures of her true personality vs forced smiles. I loved how our family portraits came out. We kept in touch because I knew I wanted maternity pictures by them. They did such a beautiful job on them. Here we are now on our 3rd session with Celia & Sthiv. We finally got pictures with our newest member of the family that they were there for since the very beginning. Idk how but they got our baby to smile so big for pictures even though it was his nap time and he was cranky. I'm so in love with these pictures of my little family & can't thank them enough for capturing us so well.

I'm so grateful to have found Amor Y Luna. This was our first family session and I was so nervous…read moreto book it because I'm shy in front of a camera and don't always love the pictures I take myself but it was important to me that these precious moments with my 2 little ones don't pass me by. So it was a big decision to make and it's a service I could hardly afford anyway. Not to mention the fact that as a mother of 2, it's nearly impossible to make plans. My kids are unpredictable and sometimes it feels impossible to get them out the door on time, especially in the same outfit they started in. Between nap times, feeding times, car tantrums, it can be so overwhelming. They're shy around new people too so I didn't know how to plan for that really and not every professional understands that. That was just the start of my hesitations. I started my search on google and found the same long beach photographers on repeat. I looked on yelp as well and got some folks recommended but they weren't close. I ended up getting a referal from a fellow mom on a facebook group and she had great things to say about their price ans quality. I reached out to Celia (and some other photographers) but Celia was the only one that called me, got to know my situation especially as a first timer, and talked me out of doing a mini session and doing a 30 min session. She suggested locations and even getting my little ones comfortable with bubbles so that could cheer them up during the shoot. She's a mother, knows how kids are and has experience photographing them. She was adamant about them having a good time and not ruining the photography experience for them which I never thought of. She and her husband showed up ready (to a new location at that), flexible, and executed better than I could have ever imagined. I got the photos back quick and the work speaks for itself. If this is your first time and ur a mom, book them! They are excellent with families, know the area, and don't charge an arm and a leg just because they can. THANK YOU Amor Y Luna. Support this husband and wife team and support BIPOC professionals.... Or just book because they'rethe best photo team out there!

Her communication was great, she was patient and went along with whatever antics my kids threw her way and the pictures she captured, truly captured everything I had hoped for and more.

My husband's aunt is actually looking to book with her for her family as she was thoroughly impressed with the outcome as well.

That's because Makenzi is THAT GOOD! She made us feel so at ease and made the whole experience fun. The pictures of our wedding and our families coming together are amazing and such a treasure. Makenzi captured more than our wedding, she captured the FEELING, which is so hard to do. There are many people who can take lovely photos, but only a few who can make you feel them. Thank you so much! You are so easy to work with, funny and loving. We could not have asked for a better photographer.

Deanne blew us away and was able to assist us in more ways than just the photography and John also outdid himself with the entire day! I still can't believe how lucky we were to have found them and of all of our vendors I can definitely say our photographers were the ones that made the difference!

Not only did they take beautiful photos, but Deanne was the truly the jack of all trades that day. She sewed some of my bridesmaids dresses that had issues, bandaged me when my dress was giving me problems, bustled my dress when no else knew how, and pretty much coordinated that whole day. We also had 100s of great pictures to look and choose from and had great video footage of our wedding. They emailed and gave us DVDs of the pictures and video. This was done very quickly. We appreciated all you did for us that day and we would highly recommend you to others.
