When I looked into Bay Area photographers for a fun and relatively informal photo session with my…read moresignificant other, I found no shortage of options, but one website and portfolio truly stood out -- Nightingale Photography. I knew from the moment I saw her work that Christina was going to be the right choice, and she did not disappoint. Tons of positives: - she was easy to communicate and plan with, even when I wanted to switch one of my locations the week of the shoot - she made us both feel comfortable in front of the camera, which is no small task - she was flexible with my ideas, but also brought her own to the table - photos were back even sooner than I'd expected, and were of the quality I'd seen on her website But I think what I liked best was Christina herself. She was extremely pleasant to work with, and treated my casual event with the same professionalism and respect that she would a wedding. She had very positive presence and brought a really good energy and enthusiasm to the shoot. She was a lot of fun and brought out the best in my partner and me. I'm so glad I selected Christina and Nightingale Photography, and she would absolutely be my first choice if I were to need a photographer again. Thank you!

Lily has a calm, easygoing way about her that made it feel much more relaxed than I expected. She guided me without over-directing, kept things moving efficiently, and somehow managed to get a bunch of shots I actually really like (which is saying something). The session itself was quick, but I never felt rushed. She gave me plenty of great options to choose from. I also got the final photos back about a week later, which was a nice, quick turnaround. Lily is warm, professional, and clearly knows exactly what she's doing. I would absolutely recommend Lily Dong Photography to anyone who needs quality photos, especially if you're a little camera-shy like me.

In addition to having images that I felt represent me beautifully, the experience was transformational. I left the session feeling more confident and empowered. If you are looking for someone to capture the REAL you, hire Lily. Like me, you will be so grateful that you did!

Radhika is probably the best wedding/event photographer in the Bay Area we have come across. Her…read moreartistic sense of capturing delicate and memorable moments is excellent and she has a keen sense of composition which makes the pictures come to life. Radhika started working with us 4 months before our wedding day and took everything that we wanted from our wedding photos into consideration. She was thorough with the location and time of the day of every event and planned in advance for which poses and captures would work. Her punctuality, dedication and flexibility to take the perfect picture is commendable and she wouldn't hesitate to roll on the grass or climb a tree/roof to capture your precious moment. We shot with Radhika for three days straight and she made us comfortable in front of the camera from the first moment to the last. She not only made us comfortable but also our guests comfortable which resulted in beautiful candid moments throughout the events. Radhika delivered the final images and slideshows very quickly as well with keen editing to enhance the images beautifully. It was our immense pleasure to have our wedding shot by Radhika and would recommend her to everyone who want their special memories captured with love and care.

She was involved in even the tiniest details, from choosing themes and coordinating outfits to helping me pick my nail color, which honestly made me feel like I could completely trust her. She even spent an entire day on calls with us while we were shopping and sent over links for things we might need. We told her we wanted a natural, candid shoot--nothing too posed or cliché--and she totally got it. She found some beautiful fall-themed spots and captured exactly the vibe we were going for. On the day of the shoot, she made sure we felt relaxed and comfortable the whole time. Radhika truly goes above and beyond, and her passion for what she does really shows. We couldn't have asked for a better experience!

I came across Kree's Yelp page because of how close she was, but what really stood out was her website--the caliber and vibrancy of her photos were incredible. I knew right away she'd be a perfect fit for capturing my niece, both in her cap and gown and in her super colorful prom dress (which I was confident Kree could do justice!). From the moment I reached out, Kree was super responsive and easy to communicate with. The contract was simple and straightforward, pricing was fair and the breakdown of her packages were awesome. and she helped us agree on a time and location that worked perfectly, not far from our house either, which was a huge plus. On the day of the shoot, Kree arrived right on time and immediately made my niece feel comfortable. Since it was my niece's first time being professionally photographed, I appreciated how Kree guided her with poses and gave her direction to bring out her best angles. She was friendly, patient, and made the whole experience fun. We received the edited photos about two weeks later, and they were amazing, better than I could have imagined. Kree truly captured my niece's personality and the significance of the moment. Highlights for me: super responsive communication, an easy-to-understand contract, a convenient location, her friendly demeanor, and of course, the beautiful final photos. Thanks so much Kree!!!

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.
