I have had several professional photos taken over the years and I had my best experience and photos with Brook Todd. From scheduling to meeting then taking the photos it was so seamless and went by so quickly. I felt at ease with such a professional team. I was at a weekend conference and was excited to get new headshots. I had read many earlier reviews and felt privileged to have the opportunity. When I got the photos I was blown away and used immediately for my social media profiles, I received tons of compliments which again speaks to the high quality of their work. If you have the opportunity to use, I highly recommend. read more

I used Brook for business headshots and the entire experience was fast and seamless. When I sent an inquiry he responded within an hour and got me scheduled for a few days later.

Very personable and just a fun guy to be around. Couldn't be more happy with how the pictures turned out! Highly recommend. read more

I HIGHLY recommend Brook Todd Photographers. I FINALLY got my Realty License after waiting 7 months to take the exam. My new Broker asked me for my "headshots". I started calling around and found Brook and called him due to his wonderful reviews! I told him my situation that I needed them YESTERDAY! We set up a meet that day ! Phewwww We met downtown Santa Cruz SAFELY with Masks on and socially distanced ourselves due to Covid. We had a blast shuffling around taking random pics. They turned out AMAZING !!! Him and his wife Alisha had them done in record time. I am not a glamour girl nor do I wear makeup so they REALLY made me look great ! I will have him shoot again and again for any upcoming occasions. read more

I can trust Brook and Alisha as photographers to always make me look GOOD. I met Brook as the photographer at conferences for a company we used to work for. Myself and others were always impressed by the quality of the photos he would capture at events. So, I enthusiastically went to him to update my professional headshot this past weekend. He was professional, highly efficient (the headshot shoot only took 15 minutes), and committed to Covid safety throughout the process. The prices are reasonable to boot. My family, friends, and coworkers raved over my fabulous headshots. Highly recommend Brook and Alisha to your photography needs! read more

I needed some headshots for my voice acting portfolio and after seeing his work on his website I decided to go with Brook Todd and I'm sure glad I did. Brook made the whole process easy and fun. We did a safe, socially distant shoot and Brook got some great pics. I ended up with some traditional headshots and a couple with me and my microphone. Brook really made me look great. After I had made my selections, he threw in a extra really cool black and white version of one of my pics as a gift. Awesome, like finding an onion ring in the bottom of your bag of fries! I would highly recommend Brook for any of your photography needs. He is the best! read more

We highly recommend Brook Todd Photographers. We have used them for all of our family's photographic milestones. Starting with family photos for my parent's 25th Anniversary over 20 years ago, through pregnancies, 4 children, and even traveling to New York to photograph my brother's wedding- they have always captured amazing moments beautifully and artistically. They are professional, but fun and make you feel comfortable, never awkward. Even goofy kids who like to make faces are no match for their skill! The editing and the locations they choose are always beautiful, and it's a joy to work with them. Thank you for capturing the moments of our life that we will always treasure, and we look forward to working with you again. We love you guys! read more

So I had a vision in mind for our latest family pictures and I wasn't sure how to make It happen. Our family pictures for the last few years had always been somewhere nice and sweet, like a park with flowers. Adorable but also pretty typical. Brook Todd comes very highly recommended so we explained to him what we were looking for. I wanted something more edgy, I wanted an urban look, industrial backgrounds, graffiti, etc. And Brook delivered. He went to Oakland the day before our shoot and scouted out several different places that he thought would work and he was RIGHT. There is some amazing street art in the city of Oakland and he found a ton of It. And then there were just some random places that you never would think to stop and take photos but we did and they all turned out AMAZING. I'm going to try to upload some of them after I add this review but if I can't, I just want all readers to know that Brook totally understood the vision that I had for our family pics and he made It happen. And he made us all look awesome too. We have a very active, energetic four year old who never sits still. And it's often impossible to get her to a give a regular smile, she always wants to make a funny face or something for pics. But Brook handled her like the pro he is and her pics especially turned out just gorgeous. I cannot recommend Brook highly enough! If you want amazing shots, call him. read more
