I must of rescheduled 3 times, I felt so bad but Calder was so cool and made it work. One of the bedrooms was not ready for photos.... Calder digitally removed all the scattered items and the room showed well. What I love the most about his work is that he does not over enhance the photos. That is a huge pep peeve for me. Over enhancing photos is a disappointment for people when they are shopping for homes. I love the quality of the golden lens brings ! Thank you guys for always making my listings shine and a HUGE THANK YOU FOR YOUR FLEXIBILITY! I highly recommend them for your next project!

My newborn was NOT having it and was crying and fussy the whole shoot yet Cece was so patient and idk how she did it but every picture she shot looked so perfect. I specifically chose her because her portfolio was full of so many creative and unique poses that I hadn't seen elsewhere, she has so many props, outfits and accessories to choose from. We loved her work so much so that we went back for our sons first birthday shoot and were not disappointed. We loved every unique and fun shot she planned, I told her what I wanted and this woman delivered. You will not be disappointed!

We will be using you again for future family photos.

Never a dull moment and always laughing and good vibes! So we knew they were the right people to shoot for our wedding day! David, Kaye, Jerome, and Germaine were so fun to work with on our wedding day. They brought their kindness and patience, as I can only understand how long of a day it can be but they were troopers all day and kept us motivated! Makes me want to get into photography because of them!! You can tell how well they work as a team, along with communication and being flexible with anything and everything! I hope they know the energy they all exude will flourish with all the love in the photos and videos felt that day! THANK YOU GUYSSSSS!!! See you for the maternity photoshoot HAHA! ;)

In fact, we made sure that Fate Studios was one of the first vendors we booked while planning our wedding (almost a year in advance)! David was always so detailed during our planning meetings and really helped put us at ease with our wedding timeline. His knowledge of all of the pretty photo-worthy spots in San Diego was really a huge advantage when planning our bride-groom sneak-away photos... They even drove us to Balboa Park during cocktail hour where they took some of our favorite photos. Throughout the entire day, David, Jerome, and their team of photographers and videographers were incredibly professional, but also super fun to work with. If you ever need a hype man to keep you feeling beautiful/handsome, it's David! Our photos were beautifully edited and our video is exceptional! My wife watched our wedding video every night after we got it, probably for a week straight - and still cries every time. Highly recommend Fate Studios for their top notch services. We love you guys!

My wife and I LOVE capturing the love within our family through photographs and we have been in…read moresearch of a great family photographer for a long time. We've used several other photographers in the past, and while they have all done great work, there was always an underlying reason why we never used them again. With Danielle, I can confidently say, I think we found our family photographer. We have a few friends who have used Danielle before and their pictures were always amazing. So we knew when we had a need to update our family photo, there was no doubt who we were using. I had been following Danielle on Facebook for a while and when I saw a post for Fall mini-sessions, I jumped on it. The price point for a mini-session was reasonable compared to what we have paid in the past. The session was only 15 minutes, which I was VERY skeptical about. How in the world is that enough time to capture the moments? We arrived to our session over an hour early to find good parking. In that time, I watched from afar, several families arrive for their session. And it was like clockwork, watching these mini-sessions go by. It was finally our turn. We walked away from our session and my 2 daughters both said "Wow, that was so easy." It really was. Danielle was quick, she knew what shots she wanted. She didn't waste time thinking about where she wanted us or how to pose us. She didn't have to think about lighting or keep making adjustments to her camera. I mean, she knows what she is doing and it's amazing how much we did in that 15 minutes. Got my pictures today...A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!! I scrolled through the gallery and all I could think was "How can we only pick 8". Our location was the same location where my wife and I took our wedding pictures almost 20 years ago. The photos are perfect. Really, above and beyond my expectations. Thank you Danielle!!! I did not mention anything about the pricing in this review, as it my change at some point. But I will say this, my goal from this mini-session, was to find a photographer that was talented, did amazing work and was reasonably priced to where I could see our family being a repeat customer....OFTEN. Danielle Miranda Photography checked all the boxes for me. I have a wife getting her BA next year and a High School Senior after that. Just 2 of the many sessions I know we will be booking.

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.

This is our fourth time hiring Eva to be our photographer and once again she totally killed it!…read moreWhen we booked her through her website (which is totally easy) we saw her beautiful photos that she had taken at Sunset Cliffs in San Diego and decided on that location. Eva sent us a location at Sunset Cliffs for us to meet her at and we were able to find her easily. She had all kinds of cool spots at Sunset Cliffs for us to take photos. Our photographs came out incredible!! I am beyond thrilled by the results. Trust Eva's instincts, she will make your pictures come out so stunning. Eva is so pleasant to work with.

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!
