I could not be happier with the engagement and wedding photos from Eisenhower Photography! Strongly recommend! I first met Julie and Tony from Eisenhower photography at Bridal Bazaar. They were sweet and professional, but also not pushy. When I got home, I went through about 70 photographers (not joking) and narrowed it down to about 5 photographers. My husband and I then interviewed Eisenhower Photography and one other place and it was a no-brainer. Julie was relaxed, sweet, and knew what she was doing. We wanted more of a personal business type of photographer - not one of those bug companies that send a random person to photograph your wedding. Engagement shoot: Julie was great with suggestions for a location and we did our shoot at Old Poway Park. She knew the park and had great suggestions. They turned out LOVELY and she totally captured the vibe we were hoping for! Wedding: Julie arrived on time to photograph the girls getting ready in the morning. She then came with us to our venue and took photos of the set up, pre-ceremony, first look, ceremony, cocktail hour, formal photos, and reception. She sent a list beforehand of "must-have" shots, which family members to photograph, if we wanted to get candid or formal shots of guests, if we will go table to table to visit, etc. She is so thorough and accommodating. I can't imagine how exhausting it is to run around and photograph all day, but she and Tony were so fun and positive. Personality is such a huge thing when picking a photographer - you want them to be positive, accommodating, and flexible. You are, after all, sharing such a intimate day with them, so you want their energy to help make the experience fun! Eisenhower Photography was priced well and also delivered amazing photos. HIGHLY RECOMMEND to anyone looking for a photographer. They are just phenomenal and provide top notch service! read more

I know that I have already reviewed this company, but I have continued to use Julie Eisenhower as my family has welcomed our new little girl. I wanted to add a little more about why I love her work so much. Julie really is an amazing photographer for so many reasons. Her photos are stunning, the composition and technical part is down right perfect... The part that makes her an even better photographer is that she takes the time to get to know her subject's personalty and then makes every photo personal. From the first shot that Julie ever took of me I knew it would be a long-lasting relationship. I can't imagine anyone else ever taking our family photos! I really hope that anyone who needs photos gets the privilege of being shot by Julie. read more

I have worked with Julie at weddings many times over the years as a professional DJ. She always brings a wonderful energy to the day and establishes a real simpatico with guests, vendors and the special couple. Diligently and efficiently she captures all the right moments, and delivers photography in a classic style that will be enjoyed and cherished by the generations. I highly recommend Julie Eisenhower! read more

Amazing! They are the nicest family and go above and beyond to capture everything on your special day! They really get to know who you are and capture your personalities! Such a unique style. They incorporate new styles as well as classic styles! You will not regret having them shoot any occasion! Not to mention they're albums! Most beautiful albums I've ever seen! They are now our family photographers! read more

Julie just took engagement photos for my fiancé and I and we love how they came out! Julie and her husband were so nice and great to work with. We had so much fun taking the pictures and the finished product came out amazing! read more

This Father - Daughter team is fabulous on many levels! Their talent is apparent in their work. The Eisenhowers capture the significance of your special moments while artistically highlighting the beauty of your surroundings in the perfect light. They have the hands down clearest & brightest images because they understand how to incorporate light, color & clarity with specific camera lenses & raw technical skill. This talent is often absent in today's world of Photo Shop & Instagram. Additionally, their demeanor and ability to work under pressure & with small and large groups is impressive! They have great people skills, photographic skills & a team mentality that was noticed by my wedding party & appreciated by everyone who wanted to be in or have copies of our pictures. HIGHLY recommend them! read more

Photography was the number one thing for my wife for our wedding. She researched and contacted many photographers. She didn't get that right feeling with any of them until she came across Eisenhower Photography. On our first meeting with Tony, Terry, and Julie, we knew that we had the right photographers. They truly love what they do! Also another plus is that they give you the right to own your photos which a lot of companies don't! Our engagement shoot was with Tony and he was great to work with. He made us feel at ease and was very encouraging and reassuring which helped considering both my wife and I were obviously nervous to get these pictures done. With his positive attitude, he made the shoot fun and the end result was fantastic. One of my personal favorites was a sunset shot of my wife and I on a bench. It's a picture that will forever be in our albums. For our wedding, Julie and Amy were our photographers. They were absolutely fun to work with and took some beautiful photos of ceremony and reception. Their use of colors, setting and creativity created some truly remarkable pictures. I received many compliments from other wedding guests on how nice and approachable that both were. My wife and I have already decided that we'll be calling the Eisenhowers again for future family albums! I definitely highly recommend them for any event that requires photography! read more

We had an amazing experience with Julie during our family photo session! We have a newborn with a ton of personality and Julie was able to capture him perfectly. My husband and I felt super comfortable with her--she is super sweet and a total professional. She was able to recommend some great settings for our photos and I couldn't be happier with the results! I would recommend her highly to anyone looking for fantastic photos and a stellar experience! read more

Eisenhower Photography - Julie captured Mr. Personality - Event Photography Near Me

We first met Julie and Tony at the Bridal Bazaar. I remembered Eisenhower Photography out of the dozen or so photography companies that we saw that day because they didn't push me to sign on with them the same day. My husband and I loved  how our wedding photos turned out. The pictures were clear and vibrant. We also love the candid shots they captured. Julie also took the time to create a black and white copy of all of the photos they took that day; a bonus we never thought of during our photographer search. We weren't able to take engagement photos that were included in our package because of my school schedule but Julie was kind enough to let us do a newlywed photoshoot instead. Thank you for capturing our wedding and newlywed photos so beautifully; we love looking back at our day. read more

I wish we can give more stars to Julie and Dick. With all the numerous selections for professional photography nowadays, it was quite overwhelming who to hire. For us, we were looking for at least 2 photographers for the entire day of our wedding. From getting ready to the last song of the night. Our budget limit was set and we refused to settle. Eisenhower definitely fit our needs. Most importantly, they matched the style of photography we were looking for. Julie and Dick are such a dynamic duo, they are such awesome example of love and they greatly compliment one another. Perfect to have around photographing you on your wedding day. They are very easy to get along with, they have a way of making you relax and they are great at bringing the smile and happiness out of you. You definitely want your pictures to exude love, passion, happiness. They are great at communicating, very nice people and such a joy to pretty much just hang out with. We greatly recommend their services we will surely spread the word of their awesomeness! read more

Tony and Julie shot our wedding and rehearsal dinner. They are an incredible team! We could barely tell they were there between our getting ready shots and through out the wedding and ceremony, with the exception (of course)of actual group photos. They did an excellent job! read more

Today I visited the updated website for Eisenhower photography and was appreciating all the amazing work they have done for clients including me! My husband and I had our engagement and wedding pictures done by the Eisenhowers and it was an amazing experience that actually enhanced our wedding. Julie and Tony made us feel so comfortable and guided us so well, that we have beautiful photos that perfectly capture our memories. Our family also loved working with them and felt at ease. The Eisenhowers are genuinely kind, professional, creative and fun people that you will love having at your wedding or with you whenever you are capturing the significant moments in your life. I look forward to having them do our family photography sessions in the future. Enjoying their company which enriches your experience, and trusting their talents in the important moments are things that money can't buy. read more

My wife and I were referred to Tony Eisenhower through a friend that used his services for her wedding. After seeing the photos of her wedding and having a phone conversation with Tony, we knew he was the wedding photographer for us. Tony did an engagement shoot prior to the wedding in Balboa Park and the photos turned out fantastic. Our wedding was on May 7th, 2011 and he and his associate, Julie, shot our wedding and reception. We had the best experience ever. Tony and Julie are so fun to work with and they have a relaxing and easy way about them that puts you at ease. I don't particularly like being photographed, but Tony has a great sense of humor and before I knew it, I was really into it. We recently received the photos of our wedding and reception and couldn't be happier. They have a really good eye for the camera and some of these photos should be in magazines...they're truly exceptional. Eisenhower is priced exceptionally well and you get a lot for your money. We couldn't be happier and would recommend Tony to anyone, anytime. Tony and Julie, thank you again for your big part in making our special day so wonderful. We will never forget you, and are so thankful to have had the pleasure of spending our wedding day with you. Teddy and Marina read more

We first heard about Eisenhower photography at the Bridal Bazaar. We initially chose them because they offered a complimentary engagement photo session, gave us all rights to the prints and had very competitive prices. Just like a lot of couples we were on a budget and wanted professional services for discount prices. Tony and Julie were AMAZING! We related to them quickly because they're family owned/operated and Tony is prior Navy. They were there from getting dressed thru to the last dance. They were on time, very discrete, caught intimate moments without being noticed and most importantly they had an upbeat and fun energy. They even honored our request to photo shop our dogs into some photos! Just an all around great experience during the most stressful week of our lives! read more

This family owned business has the personal touch needed to capture your personal and most precious moments. I highly recommend them. They are amazing photographers with a real eye for catching memories. Their photos are stunningly beautiful and their ability to corral and manage people is friendly and gets it done. I could not be more happy with the work performed. read more

They were so easy to work with and it really helped having two photographers to capture every angle of our beautiful day. The photographs were stunning as well. read more

What a wonderful experience we had with Julie and Tony as the photographers for my daughter's wedding. They are a father and daughter photography team and are absolutely fantastic to work with. For the getting ready part of the day, Julie works with the bridal party and Tony with the groom and groomsmen the then they teamed up for the wedding and reception. They are such nice and fun people that it's hard not to think of them as guests at the wedding. The pictures are not only gorgeous but perfectly captured the essence of the day. Their pics managed to show the emotion of the bride and groom during the ceremony as well as the great time that everyone was having during the reception. Their prices are very reasonable and they are available for the whole day. We are so happy that they were the photographers for this very special day for our family and I would highly recommend them. read more

Eisenhower Photography was the smoothest part of our whole wedding experience! They were very communicative with everything from beginning to end. We were a bit non-traditional with things, and they supported and documented every part of our events just as we wanted! We met a few weeks before the wedding, talked about our plans, and not only did they support our ideas, they also had valuable insights and ideas we would have never thought about! Dick and Julie are the sweetest people you can ask for. When my girl friends were getting ready for the ceremony with me, Julie was there for every significant moment. She was taking gorgeous pictures of the flowers, the rings, even the lingerie, and when the right "getting ready moments" came along, she was right there for that too! Dick was on the other side of things, documenting my husband and his friends getting ready. When we both saw the other side of things after the wedding, it was amazing to see what was happening! Everyone is nervous and fidgety before the big moment, and to see how well they captured it all was an amazing insight into the other spouse's experience! The ceremony pictures were more beautiful than I could have imagined. Dick and Julie together captured every significant expression from the entire ceremony. We were sort of difficult in that we had almost every member of the audience read a quote from their seats during the ceremony. Not only did Julie and Dick capture every reader, they also captured our faces during each reading. They were completely in sync as photographers, and they embraced the significance of every part of the ceremony. When we received their pictures from the reception, we were in awe. Everything goes by so fast during your wedding reception, you miss some moments, and sometimes the pictures of the party afterwards are all you have to really see. We were blown away by the pictures. The dancing, the hugs, the kisses, not just of us, but of the guests too. They truly captured the magic of the night. They were there on the dance floor and they seemed to have a gift for taking pictures of the right moments. There were handstands, group hugs, synchronized dances, and dips by grandparents. They truly got all the moments we couldn't have planned on film. A week after the wedding we received an email with the highlights from the wedding so we could send those pictures to loved ones immediately. It was amazing to have something to see so quickly and to print immediately to send a photo in the thank-you cards. A few weeks after the wedding, we received a monogramed box with USBs for us and both sets of parents. It was beautiful, and more than we even expected. We've been married over five months now, and we're still looking through the thousands of pictures Julie sent. Our only problem is choosing the best ones to print and frame. There are so many to choose from!!!! read more

I don't even know where to begin. Eisenhower Photography was beyond AMAZING! My wife and I met them at the Bridal Bazaar in San Diego over a year before our wedding. It was "love at first sight!" Before the end of our conversation, hugs were given, jokes were made and we walked away happier than a pig in mud. We could not wait for our engagement session and the wedding. Throughout the year, the Eisenhowers did not let us down once! From communicating, answering questions, being understanding about financial speed bumps, they were always happy and willing to work with us. When we sent our wedding timeline to them, we felt bad that we were asking them to be there for over 12 hours! But, once again, they did not complain, they did not limit our time, instead they hopped on the party bus with us and took a million pictures! Our wedding was in May and we are still mesmerized by the pictures. We are obsessed with them! Tony and Julie did a BEAUTIFUL job and thats saying the least. We plan to have them shoot our maternity photos and any other special event we want to forever remember. I would and am recommending Eisenhower Photography to anyone and everyone who needs a photographer. My wife and I have even said we would fly them out to Florida if needed...THATS how in love with them and their talent we are. THANK YOU EISENHOWER PHOTOGRAPHY!! read more

Choosing a photographer was one of the hardest decisions we had to making in the wedding planning process. My now-Husband and I had seen some examples of wedding pictures, and we knew we didn't want, but had a hard timing deciding we exactly we did want. We went to the SD Bridal Bazaar, which was overflowing with photographers. We saw a lot of over-photo-shopped, whimsical, fish-eyed images, all of which we were not our style. We were really looking for natural, candid photos that we would love 30 years from now. We were also looking for a photographer that wouldn't be afraid to give us some direction as to posing, as neither my Husband nor I are very photogenic! We met Tony and Julie at the Bazaar, and we were so impressed right away. Not only were they super friendly, but their photos were beautiful! We decided to go with them, and we could not be happier with our decision! They were a blast to hang out with at the wedding and we love the photos! They took a variety of formals and fun shots, all of which were beautiful. They emailed us the link for the pictures a month after the wedding, which is amazing because we have heard of people waiting 6 months! They also sent us the cutest box with the flash drive! Looking back, we are so glad we went with Eisenhower Photography and would highly recommend them! read more
