DW was the photographer for our small wedding several months ago and we are very pleased with his work. He was very helpful and reached out to me before the wedding to get a feel for my vision for the photos. I wish I would have researched shots that I wanted more in advance to the wedding to ensure all of the ones I wanted were taken, in the moment it is easy to become overwhelmed and forget. There was maybe only 2 or 3 poses I would have included and we had over 600 to pick from so we have plenty of choices. DW was kind and fun during the wedding. His use of light in the photos were genius and turned out beautiful in the photos. I ordered several photo books from DW and they were wonderful. He even included hand written holiday cards for the people I was gifting them to. That was such a thoughtful and special detail! I definitely recommend using DW for a wedding photographer. We truly cherish all of the lovely photos and the memories from that day. In hindsight, I would have added more time because 2 hours were not enough to include pictures of the dances and some other important moments of us and our guests. read more

I had the pleasure of booking Duval for my baby shower on 3/2/24. The pictures turned out great! Guests also gave feedback as to his professionalism. He was easy to work with and listened to my requests to ensure I got the pictures I wanted captured that day. Lastly, he also had creative ideas on picture poses which I appreciate! Looking forward to booking him for my next event! :) read more

Dhaval photographed our wedding (he was recommended by a friend who's wedding he also shot) and we couldn't be happier! He was very communicative and clear on everything we needed to know ahead of time and was just so kind and easy to work with. We just received the photos and they are absolutely beautiful! We will definitely recommend him to anyone we know who needs an event photographer. read more

Dhaval is an extremely dedicated photographer I've had the fortune to be photographed by. He did a family photoshoot by La Jolla and Sunset Cliffs in San Diego for me. He considered my opinion for the kind of look I was going for and ensured that the results exceeded expectations. As a family we had great fun during the photoshoot! I would highly recommend DW photos. read more

I found DW Photos through Groupon in 2016 and since then we have been calling his photography services. We have used him for our family, holidays, maternity, and kids birthdays. We get ALL the high definition photos from the session and I truly enjoy looking at all the candid shots. FYI, I had to upgrade my Dropbox to accommodate all the pictures. DW is very response and a pleasure to work with. I've been referring DW to my friends before I knew he had a Yelp page. He comes highly recommended from us. read more

I worked with Dhaval at an exclusive portrait Photoshoot. I felt super comfortable, safe and DW was very professional!! The overall quality of the photos were amazing and I really enjoy their editing style. 10/10 recommend read more

My wife and I were fortunate to be gifted a photography package from our friends, and Dhaval was amazing! He fit right in with our small wedding, and was able to capture our day perfectly! read more

I hired DW for as a proposal videographer and photographer. He went above and beyond for me and my fiancé. He got to the park early to scope it out and stayed later than expected. After the proposal took place, he took us around the park to sites that he picked out in order to get some good pictures. Very thankful and highly recommend! read more

Had a great experience working with Dhaval. We hired him for a surprise beach engagement photoshoot, and he really did above and beyond to make this once in a lifetime event perfect. His pictures came out great, from the lighting to his angles (keeping as many people out of the background as possible), every picture was breathtaking. He was always available and attentive, and proved extremely helpful to iron out logistics for the occasion, especially given we were coming from out of town. Thank you, Dhaval! You made this engagement unforgettable! read more

I only needed one or two professional headshots done and Dhaval provided that service for me at an unbeatable price (along with about 20 other pictures that I could access - as passport photos and such). He was willing to drive over to my place upon short notice (1 day) and provide a shoot and that is really what made me decide to utilize his services. His lighting and backdrop setup took about 15 minutes and the shoot also only took about 15 minutes. He knows what he is doing in regards to lighting, the actual photography, and editing in the studio. Some takeaways from my headshot experience: 1) Dhaval really enjoys his work and his professionalism is very apparent, even through my short interaction with him. 2) He works with with you have, gives great tips on poses that look good, and makes you feel comfortable the entire time. 3) The pricing is really unparalleled compared to a lot of local photographers on yelp. (I mass-quoted about 15 different services.) I don't believe he does it for the money, but rather, more for his love for photography. Thanks Dhaval! read more

My husband and I are so glad we chose DW photos. We hired him for our maternity shoot and he is AMAZING! He went out of his way to make sure we had just the right shots and was extremely patient. He communicated with me before and after our shoot. He is a professional and knows his craft well! If you are looking for a photographer- call DW PHOTOS!!!! read more

DW photos made all of my graduation memories priceless and eternal. What I loved most about his images is that they weren't "traditional". He does action shots like I have never seen before. His attention to detail, passion and professionalism was unmatched. A lot of times you look at graduation photos and they are all the same, when you've seen one you have seen them all, not with DW photos. He has an amazing gift to capture moments in the most artistic and creative ways. Simply ONE OF THE BEST!!! If you're looking for a photographer who understands just how important your "Special Day" truly is, and someone who's work will speak for itself, I highly recommend DW photos. read more

We had such a great experience for our baby's first birthday. We weren't exactly sure what to ask for since it was the first time needing a photographer for this type of event. We were happy with his responsiveness and timeliness. The photos and video turned out great! So glad he was there to shoot all the memories. Thanks! read more

Dhaval was so awesome! I have not yet seen my photos but at my wedding he was on it! Very professional and attentive, really listens to any requests you may have. Prices were unbeatable for the professionalism he brought. Would use again for sure. I will update after I see my photos in a few days, but I am sure they are great! read more

See all

Dhaval is amazing! Extremely helpful, friendly, & knowledgeable. Dhaval went out of his way to mke sure our event was captured completely- at an affordable rate. We are extremely thankful to Dhaval for his photo & video services for my brother's wedding ceremony this past weekend. We will remain loyal clients :) Thank you Dhaval! read more

Dhaval Waghela Has great customer service skills, is very pleasant to work with, very collaborative and wants to get you the photos you want taken, establishes good rapport with the subjects of the photos, has a good eye for emotion in his photos and easy to negotiate with. I will highly recommend him to family and friends. read more

Dhaval is an amazing photographer! He took my graduation pictures. He is super professional, prompt and punctual. I would definitely get him for future events! His rates are affordable compared to other ones! read more

DW Photos is a great photographer. He took my college graduation pictures and have captured so many memories for me and family. There was one picture that he took of me and my mother and I just can't get over how beautiful it is. It captured a moment of happiness, my mother's proud expression, and it kinds of trickles a person's heart a little bit looking at it. He is also very good with capturing toddlers/kids moments. The innocence of a baby goes through the lens and just captures your attention and makes you want to see more pictures. He is very passionate about his work and is really peculiar with each and every photo. That is what makes his work so different from so many other photographers. And for being in the graphic design field, he's one of the best in the Fresno area that I have seen. So if you're in the Fresno or Central Valley area he's the go to guy, whether it's babies, graduation, portraits, or simply pictures of your pet, this is the guy for the job. read more

My husband and I are extremely happy we decided to go with DW photos. He was professional and made us feel very comfortable including my two children. Great prices and the photos and video we got from our small court house wedding are beautiful. I got the photos within a week and can't wait to hire DW for our next event. Thank you!!! read more

Dhaval is an awesome photographer. Before the wedding, we were able to meet up and talk and get to know each other a little bit. He was very attentive and willing to learn about a traditional vietnamese wedding and how it should be/ photographed. At the wedding, he arrived very early to set up. He was EVERYWHERE; taking photos of all of our guest. On the wedding day, my husband and I were too busy to get to mingle with EVERYONE, and see what everyone was up to. Thanks to his pictures and proofs, I was able to relive that moment and see how fun everyone was having! It was amazing. Photography is very important in a wedding and he is the guy to go to for that. Give him a try; you won't regret it!!! read more

This guy is the real deal... He knows how to operate those lenses and he knows when he sees a "KodaK moment".... He is one guy who could bring out beauty in a photograph without photoshop.... And good rates! read more

The photographer was amazing!!! Communicated with me very well and answered all my questions quickly. This was a particular day that I will never forget especially with all the photos he took of me and my fiancé. It was tough keeping it all a secret but DW did an amazing job not to disclose any details. The raw emotions captured on camera really showed my fiancé in a moment of aw and disbelief for what was happening. His pricing was unbeatable compared to other photographers I asked around. Overall a great experience and I will definitely be using him in the future for other events. read more

If you want the exact feeling captured in one single moment, magically in one specific photo, during that one special time- Dhaval will make it happen picture after picture. We guarantee this. We had a private and intimate engagement shoot and he managed to calm all of the nerves in a room full of excitement and emotion. The final photos sent blew our minds- there were multiple stills, frame-friendly action shots, shots taken from angles we didn't expect, and most importantly- views from every section of the room so that we never forget. His photography style is true to both himself and his subjects, no matter what we were doing- the comfort in his skills were apparent from both sides of the lens. Working with Dhaval will leave you more than satisfied, you two will be buds. Thanks for everything, DW! :) read more

Dhaval Did a Awesome Job in capturing all the memorable moments in one of our friends Engagement party!! Way to go man!! You definitely deserve a applause :) :) read more

Dhaval was super great to work with, a real pleasure and I greatly appreciate his flexibility and professionalism. I highly recommend him.

We worked with DW Photos for our family photo session. He was very prompt with emails, very prompt with the turn around time and great working with my 2 young kids. My only complaint was that it seemed he was waiting for a lot of posed pictures where my 1& 2 year olds were looking at the camera all together, which is unlikely at that age. That being said, he did capture so many great moments and there are a lot that are frame-worthy and certainly Christmas card worthy too! read more

Dhaval does an amazing job!!! His images truly capture the moment in the most beautiful way possible... And apart from his photography, he himself is a lovely and friendly photographer to work with. He makes the customer feel extremely comfortable and dealing with him was the most hassle free and positive experience! Highly recommended!!! read more

Dhaval is a great photographer. He has excellent eye for detail and is extremely creative when it comes to picture composition and choice of perspective. His love for photography ranges from landscapes and portraits to animals and people. Being a close friend (which is why this is a such a biased review..just kidding! :P ) Dhaval brings out the best in the moment the picture is being clicked. He knows how to identify the best candid shot! I strongly recommend Dhaval's work and wish him lots luck in this venture. You are awesome Waghels! :) read more
