I used Sparks for my real estate photos, virtual staging and floor plans when my usual photographer…read morewasn't available to travel to the Sacramento area. I was recommended to Sparks by several Realtors who had been using their service for years. My experience with the company was nothing short of spectacular. Pricing was reasonable and the quality of the photos and virtual staging shots exceeded my expectations and those of my clients. I received many compliments from prospective buyers and one person in particular who ended up being the buyer for this home. She made an offer without even stepping foot inside and as she told me later the photos and especially the floor plan provided by Sparks helped her feel more confident about the property. She did of course visit the home in person after her offer was accepted. But as a Realtor who knows photos are everything to a successful listing, this was especially nice to hear how significant the photos and floor plan were in her overall decision to move ahead and write the offer.

A friend of mine recommended LVA as my husband and I needed a videographer for our wedding in San…read moreJose. They did an AMAZING job not only capturing our wedding day in film, but they were also wonderful to work with. Kyle and Dale arrived early to both of our ceremonies and captured everything we wanted - ceremony set up, decorations, family and friends, the bridal party, speeches, behind the scenes events - EVERYTHING! The footage and quality of the videos Kyle and Dale took was amazing - HD, very clean, great audio sounds as well. The best part was the edited "movie" that Kyle created for us. It summarized all of the important events on our wedding day - the morning Cambodian ceremony, the afternoon Catholic ceremony, and our evening dinner reception. Since Kyle gave it to us, I've watched it every night! It was beautifully done - great artistic style and attention to detail. The songs Kyle chose for the video were perfect and embodied the look/feel of our ceremonies and reception. Kyle's attention to details and cinematic vision is unique and it really shows in his work. My husband and I highly recommend LVA for anyone who wants high-quality, beautiful, memorable and unique videos and photos. They are very talented and caring individuals - definitely NOT like those ordinary wedding photographers/videographers out there!

Amari and Madelynn are the absolute best! Not just photographers but people as well. We had them…read moreshoot our engagement photos as well as our wedding and we couldn't be happier with them! They are super easy to work with, not pushy, and very relaxed. Amari is always looking for a photo with the best lighting in it while Madelynn is cracking jokes and taking candid ones while you are unaware. They do such a great job at capturing the intended photos and my personal favorite, the ones that you don't know are being taken. I cannot recommend them enough, they even stayed and danced a bit at the reception. Needless to say they were an absolute hit with us and with everyone at the wedding as well. Much love y'all! You da best!

Madelynn and Amari are THE BEST…read more We were recommended to them by another photographer and are so happy to have their warm spirit and presence during our special day. They are passionate about capturing the organic moments that make a wedding day truly memorable and they are DAMN good at it! Their body of work speaks for itself - they are true storytellers and experts in their craft. Our first meeting over dinner to discuss our vision for our wedding, love story and our lives was such a great conversation, we would have gone on for the rest of the night if it wasn't a school night. You know you're in good company when you're hanging out with the folks who've shot Rock the Bells :) The best part? They go above and beyond for their couples. We had a family member who was hospitalized on our wedding day and they drove us to the hospital so we could check on her in the ER. They roll with the punches and for that, we are so grateful. They became an integral part of our wedding family, complete with extra hairpins and holding onto an extra pair of shoes for the bride for our afterparty. Our guests were impressed by their professionalism, efficiency, and warmth and they even impressed my mother (who is HARD to impress). We cannot recommend Foot Candles enough!

AITA!!! We hired…read moreLuis to do our wedding photography last November 23', we had hired him prior to do our nieces Quince so we knew he was on time and worked hard We waited 2 months after our wedding before reaching out for our pictures, he stated that he was almost done with them, to give him til the end of the week, then a few more days, then he got sick. My wife and I are all about family and we understand that things in life happen. We had no rush to get our photos; around February we messaged again, and then around April-May he began posting on his IG, he seems better so we gave him more time, around July we reached out and no response, my wife and I were busy moving and having our life events, so again, no rush. LATE SEPTEMBER COMES and my wife reached out AGAIN, but this time she requested to have a talk about a partial refund, he ignored my wife's email for about a week and responded with something along the lines of "I had already sent you the link, your pictures were done a while back"; my wife and I checked her email, spam folder, text messages and missed calls....NOTHING! He used this email as a reason to not look bad, and to top it off, he sent us over 1,200 pictures, a lot, right? We liked about 5 pictures of us and about 12 of the whole 8+ hour wedding. Most of the photos are repeats. Imagine 1 picture, with an average of 5-7 duplicates and perhaps different filters on them. He had what appeared to be the same picture almost 20x with different filters. I thought we were clear on the pictures we wanted but I guess we weren't because: 1) he didn't capture details from our wedding that we had asked for, like our whole wedding cake, sweethearts table, or handmade chandeliers that a friend gifted us for decorations, 2) the wedding cake and the toppers weren't fully visible, either the cake or the toppers are blurry, not 1 picture shows both just right. This was the same for other wedding details, like our wedding favors. 3) he captured maybe 2-3 events where we were happy to see our guests having fun, we loved those pictures, but the rest seems like our wedding had no "life" in it, which is difficult for a Mexican wedding of 200+ people to not have 4) our church! 1 thing we loved about our church were the colors that the sun rays give off once they hit these beautiful stained glass windows. Idk if he had the contrast too high or if it was during his editing, but there was no color in them! (Which should have been captured because people complemented our church, and I clearly remember seeing the beautiful green, yellow, blue, red light shining through these windows. There were a handful of pictures where he did capture a bit of the red, weren't great, but were nicer) 5) most of our pictures were high in contrast, had no color (we got married at an olive ranch, beautiful green trees, like 2 show the greenery, other than that, they're too bright! 6) he didn't capture a good close up of our first kiss at the church. 7) my wife had apparently insisted on him and made sure he understood that she wanted my first look reaction, which he later tried to stage. I'm not gonna lie, we were probably difficult to work with, he stayed a lot longer than he should've, but I'd like to believe we treated him kindly and fairly. Luis can work a lot better with posed photos, like with graduation shoots, but I would NOT recommend him for candids, weddings, or any big important events that are shot live. We feel like we were his guinea pigs for this wedding shoot. And I have texted, called and emailed him VARIOUS TIMES! Even through social media, IG, and he has not tried to get a hold of us. He has been ignoring us for a long time. I doubt we'll be able to get any type of refund or fixed photos, and we still had our late engagement shoot with him (as part of the package we paid for), but I doubt it'll happen because he does not respond. I wish I didn't have to leave a bad review, I hate to do this, since we got along well the day of, but we could've worked something out. He ROBBED us of some dear memories, I wish that could be an exaggeration, but unfortunately I suffer from a slight memory loss (from a TBI) where I must see proof to remember some things. This is the person you'll be working with if you hire Luis for a wedding. Attached some pictures and I blurred peoples faces to protect their identities. These were some of the common style of pictures he took.
