Wanted to get about 4 poses, 2 photos each for a total of 8, with a max spend of $150-200. The cheapest option was $139 for a single photo. Second cheapest was $250 for 15 photos. Absolutely, ridiculous price when I can pay for a private photographer to shoot in the field for $400 and send me 60 edited shots. Or go to Sphere self serve photo and get a 15 min shoot with 60 edited shots for only $89. Employees and management were rude and would not work with me at all on pricing. They also would not refund me the $40 I spent to reserve my 30 minute slot less than 24 hours ago. They had open availability all day today, I wonder why. Very disappointed, this is not a way to treat a potential customer! You could've had my business if you just tried a little harder, sad!

My husband and I met with him weeks before our wedding to discuss the setting of our venue, about our guests and he also wanted to know about us and how we met It was really neat for a photographer to want to get to know us before our big day. The day of our wedding we felt like Eric was already a friend of ours. We both felt comfortable with him around. He was on time and ready to go! We didn't have to direct him in any way. He was professional and friendly! He was patient and willing to go with the flow when needed. He made sure to capture every moment of our big day, priceless! A week later we received our photos, simply AMAZING! We couldn't be happier with how our photos turned out! So much detail in every shot. the color/lighting/poses were beautiful.

I didn't think any of the family photos would be usable :P my daughter is not one to pose and stay still. Celi was so kind and brought blocks for her to play with. She loved them & they helped to distract during the shoot. Celi's patience and flexibility with us put me at ease as we took some solo photos, some with just my husband and I, and family shots whenever our daughter would sit still. Great turn around time with the photos as well. Often times you hear it could take weeks for other photographers to have them ready. Thankful to have Celi capture this time as we grow into a family of four!

My wife came across them on Yelp! and we hired them to do the photo and video shoot for my parents' 50th Golden Wedding Anniversary. Mind you, we hired them less than a month before the actual event. David and Jerome took the time to do a phone call with us and walk through the entire itinerary of the day from the ceremony at Mission San Diego through the entire reception at the Gaylord Pacific. I really enjoyed working with all of them. They were so kind, warm, and detail oriented. I can't say enough about Fate Studios and how they made this event a truly memorable event! I also pitched an idea to Jerome about doing an AI video of my parents, describing their love story and how they met 50 years ago in the Philippines. Jerome has years of experience as a filmmaker in the Philippines and has worked for one of their large TV networks there, so he's a pro. I was nervous that we wouldn't have enough time to take this video from start to finish, but Jerome assured me that he could deliver. We presented the surprise AI video to my parents after we showed their slide show and the crowd was truly mesmerized! Many of our guests told me that the AI video was an awesome concept. But let me say that David, Jerome, and their team were awesome! I feel as though I gained some friends for life. The second I met them in person it felt like I had known them for a long time. They also knew how to get my parents to take pictures. You know, once you get older the excitement for these kinds of things is not the same as when you first got married :). So if you need a great team of folks who just make you feel at ease with a big event, look no further! Fate Studios is an amazing team and I encourage anyone who is looking for photographers/videographers to give them a call. They are well worth it!

We got married in Maui and flew Richwell out as our photographer. Richwell had already shot my wife…read moreseveral times as a photographer for RX Smartgear. We knew Richwell is the man and his skills behind the lens are amazing. We had no idea he was going to save our entire wedding. We flew from Madrid, Spain to San Francisco and were home for less than 8 hours before taking off again for our wedding. We landed a few days prior to the scheduled ceremony. WE WERE WRECKED. Our body clocks were all out of whack. We had planned an impromptu wedding on our favorite beach with a small group of about 30 family and friends in attendance. With all destination weddings, the stuff leading up to the big day can be a little overwhelming. Family arriving. People pulling you in all directions. Checking on catering, music, etc. Two days on the island of relaxation and my wife was STRESSED OUT! She literally told Richwell she wanted to skip the ceremony and do just the dinner (we had gotten married at the courthouse several months prior). She was done with it. In comes Richwell to the rescue. Richwell got the phone numbers of everyone attending. He coordinated the time for them to be there. He arranged where everyone was to stand and basically set us up on the beach in the perfect location for his photographs. Our wedding turned out AMAZING. To this day we have people telling us it was the best wedding they ever attended. And let's not forget the photographs!!! SO GOOD! Richwell did a cool drone video of the beach. He shot the entire wedding and took group shots. We changed into swimwear and he did a beach shoot with us. He also took pictures at the dinner. Stunning work! Thank you Richwell!!! You made our wedding day amazing and unforgettable.

We've been to a ton of weddings, and we've seen some dynamite wedding albums in our lifetime, but Richwell's work is "Hall Of Fame" material. This guy and his crew should be doing this stuff for Hollywood and the 1 percenters of the world. He is All-Star material! We just attended a wedding for close friends of ours this past weekend (7/24/21), and the pre-production photos I saw and his video montage he created was unbelievable! Richwell's incredible shots seemed magically captured, his enthusiasm was non-stop, and his humbleness was immediately evident upon meeting him. Lastly, when you speak to him, you discover he's not just an awesome photographer, but an even greater guy! Not only that, his team is just as great as he was. We can't speak to his fees, but we can definitely vouch for his work, which is a work of art in and of itself! Do you want the best? If so, book an appointment to see what Richwell can do for your upcoming special event. All we can say is your event will not be captured any better than the work this guy can do for you. You can tell when someone's good, but you can also tell when someone's over-the-top outstanding, and extremely passionate about the work they do. Richwell received a standing ovation after all the guests saw his video montage during the wedding reception!
