Both Pauleen and Myro are incredibly talented and professional photographers. Pauleen helped make us feel entirely at ease in front of the camera with her directions and constantly hyping us up. On our wedding day, she knew all the best photo spots at our venue and was able to get us a wide variety of photos for our couple's portraits. Myro did a fantastic job getting photos of all our guests during the cocktail hour. We had several guests compliment how friendly he was and how many people he captured. In the background leading up to our wedding day, the True Photography team helped put a photography timeline that aligned with our wedding coordinator's timeline. This helped ensure we got all the photos needed included first looks, couple's portraits, family portraits, etc. No special moment was missed by the team throughout the wedding. From first looks to dancing at the end of the night, we the full story of our wedding day captured!

Easy schedule. Additionally, it was a 100 degree day, and she did not even a bit complained about it. She cared our baby very gently, even more she changed his diaper's too, which mostly surprised me that showed how she loves babies, and her job as well. Additionally, as a gift she added several pictures into our portfolio. We very thank her for beautiful pictures and well done job. The pictures very professional, taken by properly angle. Especially, she made pictures as we wished. And also she give us little bit more pictures and she didn't charge me!!! I'll give for her A+. Thank you.

Her use of light is unparalleled as is her use of nature as the background. Her photographs are majestic, expansive, soft, golden, magical and real. She captures great candids. We have 2 kids and that is always hard but she had several tricks up her sleeve to get the kids to look and she got some amazing shots of the whole family. I just want to frame all the photos she took and cover my house wall to wall =) She's also patient, easy-going and just a overall pleasure to work with. I never share photos of my family on yelp. But I'll break my own rule so you can see how amazing she is.

We're not from the area, and we didn't expect to be stuck in traffic for 2.5 hours longer than we had planned. :( But like I said, she was sooo gracious in offering up her personal time to do our photo shoot the next morning, and the pictures are amazing. Love how she captures the light in the photos, and she was great at putting all of us (me, husband, and our two boys - 7yo and 4.5yo) at ease. Would highly recommend her for families in the Oceanside/Carlsbad area or anyone passing through, but I would not recommend trying to book with her on a travel day. :D Give yourself extra, extra time to get through that LA traffic!

My fiance and I chose Aaron because of his work and professionalism--and a Wedding Channel deal…read morejust sealed the deal for us. My fiance and I were not interested in doing an engagement photo session. However, we were very glad that we did as we took photos at the university where we met, and we got to know Aaron a bit as our wedding photographer and vice versa. I was initially uncomfortable in front of the camera, but Aaron made us feel comfortable and made the whole experience more enjoyable. We were very happy with how the engagement photos turned out. For our wedding, we hired Aaron and a second shooter since we did not have a videographer. Aaron contacted me ahead of time indicating that he would be coming with a second shooter as well as an assistant (with no additional cost to us). Aaron and the second shooter Mandy photographed the whole wedding extremely well and highlighted the venue (The Darlington House) so beautifully. Aaron processed the photos from our wedding in less than a week, and we were simply elated when we saw them. Our wedding photos turned out amazing, beyond our imagination. Overall, we would highly recommend Aaron as he is professional and reliable, and a fantastic photographer.

Many of my friends have also used Aaron for their family photos, wedding photos, headshots, etc. And we are all very happy with his work. Aaron is easy to work with, attentive, generous, and very creative. He also does his homework before he meets with you. Meaning, he will scout out the location you want for your photos, find the best spots, and lead you through them during the shoot. His mind and eyes are constantly working, and the results are always beautiful photographs that somehow speak to the location and capture your unique personalities and interests. I look forward to the next occasion that would warrant me hiring him.

I didn't get much sleep the night prior but lo and behold, her magical hands transformed me into looking fresh with a beautiful dewy finish with no trace of bags or under eye circles. My make up was amazing and natural and complemented my dress perfectly. From 8am to 10pm, I didn't have to retouch my make up except for putting on lip gloss after dinner. She definitely knows make up and I can't emphasize how sweet, talented , and professional Ileana is! And oh, did I mention that the bride looked phenomenal that day? Thanks Ily, I would highly recommend her to any girl who wants to look beautiful and exquisite on any given day!

The photos came in the exact time she quoted us but the edits look like pictures taken and edited off an iPhone. Not happy with them. I had to re-crop and edit majority of all photos as best I could as all the edits completely washed out our skin tone, the colors of the sky etc. I asked for the raws so I could just edit them myself from scratch and it's been 2 weeks and still haven't received them. Didn't remind us or inform to take phones/wallets out of pockets so those just look lovely in all our photos **sarcasm**. Book with someone else who knows what they're doing and takes their time on special memories like this. Updating my review! Got some of the raws back a day after making my review, which was nice of her to send as she said she didn't usually do so, but the quality of the photos look like they were taken on an iPhone..it was nice to see some of the photos that didn't come through as finals.
