Koby Photography knows how to make me shine - so you just know I had to do a review!…read more Our Yelp Community Manager - Issabelle - uses chief photographer Ian for most of our Yelp events. What triggered me to write this review? Well after a posting of a recent Yelp gig, a friend remarked to me that I looked like - "Drakes producer" in one of the pics!!! LMAO! Ok do I even know how to play the flute if my life depended on it, to let alone be worthy of being positioned in front of a production board!?! Hahaha! Don't even ask me to rap or sing - especially if you value your hearing!!! Regardless I'll take the accolade & if anyone wants one - my new business card now reads below my name - 'Drakes Producer.' LOL. Ian has the knack for capturing that 'cool factor moment!' He's snapped me so many times & had me looking all GQ! I've said to myself at times about my own pics he's taken - who is that cause wow! Hahaha! Vanity speaking I guess! Ian has worked with Rockstar Energy Drink, Budweiser, Swatch, UberEats, Yelp! Vancouver & many others! He's very well travelled & has taken pics all over the world. From the events I've been to - I've seen the result when the pics come out - he has an amazing ability to capture that precise special moment & the pics glow! Have a look at Ians amazing portfolio - https://www.koby.photography/ As well have a peek at his Instagram - kobyphotography.

Had to sort out a photobooth very last minute, and Julia was more than willing to help and gave me…read moreall the info I needed! And answered my many many questions! She went above and beyond my expectations and was so courteous along the way. The design was perfect, the quality was beyond what I expected, and she is such a treat herself!!

Due to Covid, our family wasn't able to attend my sister's wedding earlier this year, but…read morefortunately she was able to have a reception that we could attend this fall! Since we didn't get to get ready together on her real wedding day, I hired Michael to capture some photos of all the sisters getting ready, and I'm so glad I did! It was super easy to communicate with Michael from across the country before the reception, and on the day he was on time, super friendly and easy to work with. He took both candid and posed shots of us, and he has an amazing eye for cool spots for photos. His turnaround time was super fast as well, we had the pictures a few days later! He got some amazing shots (not an easy feat in the pandemonium of the day) and we now have some treasured keepsakes to remember a special day. Thank you again Mike!

Tomasz is a fantastic photographer. He did our company photos last year (one of which, I'm using…read morefor my Yelp profile pic currently!). He has great vision and is so friendly and laid back. I was most impressed by his work at a friend's wedding where he had a slideshow up and running during the reception of the photos he took during the day! He's always trying new ways to play with light and photographs. I'd definitely recommend him! Thank you Tomasz for your wonderful work on our business portraits!!

Almost two years ago, Tomasz led a team of photographers to capture my wedding, for roughly 10-12…read morehours. He didn't do our engagement photos, but we met up to discuss our suggestions and ideas, and he also provided some input when we shared our concerns about lighting at the ceremony. He captured our moments beautifully, both at the ceremony and reception. We also spent a few hours taking photos with our wedding party at some specific outdoor locations, in which he and his partner followed in their own vehicle. The quality of his photos were great, and he was fun to work with. When we weren't sure how to stage ourselves for a photo, he'd offer some guidance. During our reception, he displayed a slideshow of the moments he captured througout the day, and I thought that was a nice touch. We spoke little to each other throughout the day because I was confident in his ability to photograph all that was going on. His style is appropriate at various times, where he is able to capture the mood during the more ceremonial moments and at dinner time when everyone was more relaxed. He provided us with all the photographs at the end, and a beautiful coffee book that I still look at to remind me of that day. Gives me butterflies every time I look at the photos. One photo that I think illustrates his talent and creativity is where he photographs my wedding shoes by hanging them off my parent's tree in their front yard. My very own shoe tree!. Ask him to show it to you :)

Cris was wonderful from the start. I needed a photographer for a family photo shoot while on…read morevacation in Vancouver. She responded quickly, was patient with me while I finalized the details for the shoot (all over email), and had great suggestions for location. We met for the first time at the shoot and she was fantastic with my little kids. It shows in the photos - my kids were very natural and clearly had a great time. I had specific requests for the types of scenery and she accommodated my requests, as well as provided great ideas that translated into excellent photos. Her photos were so good in composition and storytelling even before any editing. I had no idea what to expect working with a photographer I contacted based on Yelp reviews in a city I was just visiting. Our experience with Cris could not have been better!! I will be contacting her the next time I am in Vancouver!!

I have worked with Tamea several times in the past few years and I couldn't be happier to give her…read morea 5 star review. Her eye for beauty (even when I don't see it) is amazing. A lot of work these days is over edited, anyone can be a "photographer" with photoshop. Tamea's natural eye makes her photos stand out above the rest. Her personality brings out the best in you and she somehow captures it on film. I am always pleased with the quick turnaround and have never felt like I misspent my money. These photos are some that I will truly treasure forever.

After looking at about a billion websites for local photographers, I chose Tamea Burd Photography…read morebecause I really liked her style and her pictures look like real people, not plastic robots. I booked at the last minute for online profile pictures I needed really fast, and Tamea was awesome about accommodating me. My session was a million times easier and more fun than I'd been expecting it to be. (I was pretty much expecting to hate it.) She's so relaxed and easy to talk to, you almost forget you've paid her to take pictures for you. This is a good thing. As for my photos, they're amazing, if I do say so myself. Because she made me feel super comfortable and didn't force me to do anything I didn't feel happy about - no stupid awkward poses, no fake smiles - for once, I actually really, really like photos of myself. There are cheaper photographers out there, but her prices are definitely reasonable, plus she doesn't charge extra for stuff like black and white shots, which I love. Oh, and she gave me excellent information in advance about how to get ready, which was massively helpful. Overall a great experience and great photos.

We have had photographers before and we where referred to This Is It Studios by a friend. We are simply amazed at how amazing the whole experience has been. We will now always use there service. The shoot was perfect as we where in a busy active gym and we didn't want to bug anyone else. We accomplished our 2 hour shoot without disrupting anyone. I was very happy by all of this. Then we saw the finished photos and WOW. We are extremely confident to refer This is it studios to everyone we know now!!! Thank you so much for the amazing work.

She puts you at ease, and makes the shoot fun. She's phenomenal with kids. She'll find your best angle. And you know when someone emanates GOOD VIBES? That's Susan for you. Just a really decent human being with a crazy talent for photography. We've shot with her twice and would do again and again. Cannot recommend her enough. And talk about VALUE. Very affordable and fair pricing.
