    We absolutely loved working with BigDayMemories! From our first call with their founder, Pasha, to our photoshoot on our wedding day, the entire experience was seamless and thoughtful. We shared a mood board, and the team really took the time to understand our vision, which we truly appreciated. Our project manager, Christelle, handled coordination really well throughout the process, making sure all our questions were answered and our updates passed on to the team.   During our prep call, our photographer, Masha, carefully walked through our timeline to make sure we had enough time for all the shots we wanted. On the day itself, Masha and Marat, our videographer, were incredible--so positive, energetic, and clearly passionate about what they do. They went above and beyond (literally climbing rocks and walking on sand!) to capture the perfect shots while keeping us relaxed and in great spirits.   We've already seen our photo highlights and are blown away by how beautiful they are. They truly delivered on the vision we shared but also added a wonderful artistic flare that helped tell the story of our special day. We can't wait to see the full gallery and final video!   Their pricing is also very reasonable--easily one of the best we found--and absolutely worth the investment. Highly recommend!   Thank you to the whole team for helping us make our Big Day memories!

    Big Day Memories was a pleasure to work with! Our initial call with them is what really drew us in as they took the opportunity to guide us through the timeline, explained how the company came about, and reassured us that they have handled many weddings within our region (Bay Area) in the past. We worked with Vinh and Alex on our wedding day and they were very professional and just great guys to work with. We're pretty awkward people and Vinh's direction in posing us and making us look good really translates in the photos! We received our sneak peek within a few days, and our full gallery of photos within a week, which was faster than we could have ever imagined. We're now just looking forward to our video as we absolutely loved the photos of our wedding. For those who are wanting a one-stop shop for photography and videography, we think Big Day Memories is a fantastic option!

    So extremely happy -- we truly could not have asked for a better team. We had an immediate connection with Masha and Marat and knew right away it was going to be a great experience. It took us months to find a photographer and videographer we genuinely loved. It ended up being one of the hardest milestones in our entire wedding‑planning journey. We were searching for a team whose pricing felt reasonable, whose work we connected with, and who had experience with the documentary, romantic style we envisioned for our wedding day. The kind of style that captures the real moments of the day in every still image, paired with a video that shows the perspectives we didn't get to see ourselves. I've heard so many stories of people not loving their photos, so I was prepared to temper my expectations -- but honestly, I was happier than I ever imagined. Everyone we've shown so far has been in awe of how beautiful they turned out. Masha and Marat were exceptional. Masha was organized, flexible, and communicative. They gave great direction for posing while also capturing natural action shots. During our pre‑wedding session, they were incredibly helpful walking us through ideas and what would be possible to bring to life. On the wedding day, they knew exactly who needed to be where and kept everything moving smoothly, while still allowing us time to visit with guests and enjoy our day. They captured photos and videos seamlessly as the day unfolded. We highly recommend Big Day Memories for your event and are confident you will be just as pleased.

    Big Day Memories did such an amazing job! From the moment we booked with them to our wedding day, the entire process was seamless and stress-free. They photographed both our engagement session and our wedding, and we truly couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. They captured every special moment so beautifully, and looking through our photos brings us right back to the day. Their turnaround time was also incredibly quick, which was such a bonus. We highly recommend Big Day Memories to anyone looking for talented, professional photographers who genuinely care about capturing your special day!

    It was an absolute honor to have Big Day Memories at our wedding event. We worked with the Photographer Adam and he was absolutely amazing. He knew how to guide and direct the bridal party as well as others attending in order to make the pictures look as beautiful as possible. Beautiful work, beautiful editing amazing photographer! We will definitely be booking with Big Day Memories again. I can't stop looking at my wedding photos.

    Pasha is so friendly. A family guy. Loved my photographer. Was able to capture the candid moments and big ones too. Only had a month to plan the wedding and they were so ...THERE! My photographer was a nice anchor to the entire day! Thank you so much Big Day Memories!

    Big Day Memories did my nieces wedding photography at the Oak Glen venue. I was in charge of the photography for her wedding, so going with them was super easy. They have different packages depending on what you are looking for...from the beginning to end the photographer and video were amazing! They captured every important detail of the wedding. We got the proofs over email on box and were able to choose prints or digital uploads, super convenient! Thank you so much for the amazing photos that will last a lifetime!

    My husband and I searched for months for a photography/videography team. We were very picky, knew exactly what we wanted, and weren't willing to compromise on our wedding memories. We wanted a team that had a natural, clean editing style and could capture us and our venue as naturally as possible. That's when we found Big Day Memories. From our first meeting, we knew this was the team for us. Their professional demeanor and communication was fantastic, and they made us feel reassured at every step. Then the big day came, and they exceeded every (already high) expectation we had! Masha and Murat were absolutely phenomenal. They made us feel at ease in front of the camera, and sometimes we were so comfortable we forgot the cameras were there! We joke that we spent more time with Masha and Murat than anyone else on our wedding day. And boy, was it WORTH IT! We couldn't be happier with our photos so far, and we are SO grateful to Masha, Murat, and the team for capturing our best day so perfectly. They are true ARTISTS and masters of their craft. I will forever be grateful to them for providing such beautiful photos that we can look back on for the rest of our lives. THANK YOU!!!!

    I have to update my review after receiving the final video edits. I still can't get over the song choice they initially decided to use on our social media reel. The original song was completely inappropriate and had zero to do with weddings or anything romantic. The song was called Hoe Phase and we just discovered it's by an AI artist (found on Spotify)! The lyrics are even worse than the songs title. Although they removed the song and updated to a new one, it just doesn't sit well with me that they even allowed that to be approved and sent to their client! Also, the first initial song edit was choppy in parts and I had to ask them to provide a seamless edit so they redid the video again! They were clearly rushing to give us a new reel. Quality of the video itself is great, can't deny that, but when you're excited to see your video and share with family and friends you don't expect the song to start off with "I made it out of my hoe phase!" It made us feel as though they thought of us as a couple in this way or that we would find it funny, I'm not sure and don't think I will ever understand. It felt very deliberate because why would anyone choose this song to begin with?? They apologized through email but that's about it. Assuming no one else has experienced this with BDM so why us??

    We had an incredible experience using Big Day Memories! From our initial meeting with Masha and Ivan we knew that we had nothing to worry about. They clearly knew what important moments were essential for them to capture and they made sure they had the details they needed to make it happen. The day of our wedding Masha was patient, efficient, and professional. The team was flexible with our last minute schedule changes and the whole process was smooth. Both Masha and Ivan did a great job posing us to get the perfect shots. We cannot recommend Big Day Memories enough if you want to be confident your event will be captured by a professional team that is ready for anything.

    Highly recommend! I planned our wedding in 5 weeks and the awesome communication of the big day memories team made that possible! Having photo and video was super important to me and the packages they have made that possible for my budget! Vihn and Alex were great to work with, very professional and the photos tuned out SO beautiful and we look so natural and candid as I had hoped! My husband and family were also very impressed by them and their professionalism!! Captured our day beautifully and we are so grateful!! Thank you!

    My fiancé and I had our engagement photo shoot this past Sunday with Masha at Pasadena City Hall and she was amazing to work with! She made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera helping to direct our poses and bring our vision to life. We were originally told that our photos would be available in 10 days but BigDayMemories delivered in just 4; talk about fast! Although we didn't get photos of all the poses we wanted to highlight we are still very happy with the ones that were delivered. The photos were beyond beautiful and truly captured our emotions in the moment. Also their staff is responsive and helps to answer all questions in a timely manner. Can't wait to work with them again for our wedding next year!

    We had the absolute pleasure of working with Big Day Memories for our wedding, and we could not be happier with our experience! From the very beginning, their professionalism and attention to detail stood out. Before the big day, Helen (our photographer) and Marat (our videographer) scheduled a video call with us to go over the timeline. They thoughtfully walked us through how to best structure our day so we could make the most of every moment. They also gave us wonderful suggestions for photo locations, ways to include all of our guests, and ideas to make the day flow smoothly. On the wedding day, they arrived right on time and immediately set a positive, lighthearted tone. Helen and Marat worked seamlessly as a team, guiding us through each photo session with clear direction and fun, creative ideas for poses. They managed to balance being professional with being easygoing, which helped us feel comfortable and relaxed in front of the camera. Their energy was contagious and made the whole experience enjoyable--not stressful at all! We were so impressed with how organized and thoughtful they were throughout the day. They ensured we stayed on schedule while still allowing us to be present and enjoy the moment. They encouraged creativity, captured candid interactions, and made sure all of our loved ones were included in the memories. We've already received a sneak peek of our photos, and they are absolutely stunning. The quality and artistry exceeded our expectations, and we are beyond excited to see the full gallery and our wedding video. We know it's going to be something we'll treasure forever. If you're looking for a photographer and videographer team who are professional, creative, reliable, and genuinely fun to be around, we wholeheartedly recommend Big Day Memories Helen and Marat were simply amazing, and we're so grateful to have had them capture our special day!

He is prompt, communicative, and delivers on his promises. 1) for the engagement shoot: he helped us get comfortable, gave us directions, helped lighten the mood with music, and worked with our ideas as well and the props we brought! In the end, we got the vision we wanted along with some beautiful scenic shots that we liked from his portfolio. We used our engagement photo shoot everywhere - I highly recommend doing both since you'll get comfortable with him for the actual wedding too. 2) for the wedding day: he was a real pro- I had couple shots I really wanted which he took care of those. At the same time, I just let him lead a lot of the photos and ideas, and he came with plenty and made it easy and seamless for me, my partner, our families, and wedding party! Overall, the photos are beautiful - I am impressed with how natural the photos are (their style is very true to the experience and not overly filtered), and how he captured all of our special moments from all different angles. I was especially impressed with the photos he got during ceremony (we only hired him and no additional photographer) but were happy with the amount of photos we got. Also, his turn around time is impeccable, and we're really grateful for his speediness, polish, and beautiful photos! We're so satisfied and would 100000% recommend Bryan to anyone looking for a professional photographer that can work with any settings, lighting!

    We can't thank Bryan enough for being a part of our big day…read more We chose Bryan to take both our engagement and wedding photos and he is one of the best decisions we made during our wedding process. Bryan is calm and professional, kind, offers creative guidance and is a true artist which is clear from his works. I believe he offers many different styles of photo depending on the clients preferences. I communicated to Bryan what I was hoping to achieve and the photos came out better than I was even hoping for! We loved the photos so much that we ended up ordering a photo album from Bryan which looks incredibly sleek and beautiful. These photos will be a part of our lives forever, we are beyond grateful to Bryan. It was a 100 star experience!!!!!

On the day of the wedding, everything went very well. There were a few timing issues throughout the day that were unfortunately out of our control, but the photographers did their best to work around them and still capture as much as possible. We really appreciated their flexibility and effort. We do wish we had a little more time for certain settings and shots, but again, some of those things were simply outside of anyone's control. When we first received our wedding video, it was a bit shorter than what we expected based on our contract. However, the team was very responsive to our feedback and worked with us to create four different edits, incorporating everything we requested. We really appreciated their willingness to listen and make adjustments until we were happy with the final result. Overall, we would absolutely rate their service 5/5.

We are forever grateful to our wedding photographers and videographers, Andrew, Bogdan, Christian and Vinukh for capturing every special moment of our big day so beautifully. From capturing every precious corner of our venue to the grand exit, they were professional, creative, and attentive to every detail. They captured genuine emotions, candid moments, and stunning portraits. The photos are breathtaking, and the video perfectly tells the story of our wedding day. We were both camera shy but they made us feel comfortable and worked seamlessly throughout the event. They followed through with all our requests. Their dedication, talent, and passion for their craft truly shine through in their work. I did not feel pressured or rushed throughout the day because they gently guided us with patience and listened to us. We made the right decision booking them. We highly recommend them to any couple looking for a team that not only delivers exceptional photos and videos but also helps make the wedding day experience enjoyable and stress-free.
