From communication prior to booking, during the event and the final product, I was thoroughly impressed by Brittany and Connor's professionalism. Connor was hilarious and really connected with the teens and the guests. He got specific shots I had requested and kept me on a timeline to make sure I would get the best pictures. His work was amazing! Super quick turn around too. I look forward to working with them again.

We couldn't recommend Paul and his team more highly. From start to finish, they were incredibly…read moreprofessional, easy to work with, and captured every moment of our destination wedding perfectly. What truly set them apart was the turnaround time. We received all of our photos in less than two days, including coverage from multiple events across the wedding weekend from the welcome party, rehearsal, and wedding day itself. We were amazed at both the speed and the quality of the images. Paul and his team did an incredible job making everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera while also capturing so many candid, meaningful moments. They were organized, flexible, and seamlessly handled the logistics of a destination wedding. The photos exceeded our expectations and allow us to relive the entire experience over and over again. If you're looking for a talented, reliable photographer who delivers exceptional work and an unbelievably fast turnaround, Paul and his team are the perfect choice. Thank you for helping preserve some of the best memories of our lives!

The other- plain and simply, high caliber of professionalism, authenticity, and warmth that I've had the pleasure to experience after hiring KLK to work their magic for my engagement and wedding photos at The Ritz Carlton, Laguna Niguel, this past July. Firstly, my fiancé is not a fan of taking any kind of photos (downright hates the mere thought of it), but Paul changed that all for him during our short engagement and wedding photoshoot so that deserves an extra thank you, as I thought that was not possible. And to have many amazing photos to show for the least possible amount of time to shoot is nothing short of amazing, and illustrates the quality of output you would receive from KLK. Not only that, Kristi and Paul are the cutest, most down to earth and friendliest people you'll meet in the industry. We have only received our wedding teasers to date, and they were all outstanding. Can't wait to see the rest of the wedding images which KLK has communicated will complete in the next week or so - we also purchased a custom wedding photo book which we are very excited about! We can't recommend KLK enough and truly made the best choice picking them as our wedding photographers-- simply one of a kind!

After speaking with her, we decided to do an indoor (at our home) and outdoor shoot and we're so glad that we chose to do this! I bought some dresses (just because I'm extra) but honestly, Lena has such a great collection of maternity dresses to choose from that you won't need to buy anything extra. Lena also gave some good tips on how to pose during the photoshoot which my husband and I were thankful for. She even got into the water with us to capture the fantastic sunset! All in all, we highly recommend Lena for maternity photoshoots! Her work is excellent, prices are reasonable and she replies promptly to any communication. Thank you for capturing this special moment for us!

This is a long due review. We had the pleasure of working with James for our wedding photos in…read more2023. James was absolutely the hardest working vendor at our wedding. He arrived on time and worked his camera tirelessly for almost 10 hours capturing our entire wedding. He even kneeled on the ground to take many of our photos which to this day we are still amazed by his professionalism. Great work ethic as well. You would think for a 10 hr event, many photographers would take several breaks but not James. He took so many photos and urged us to take more pictures. Communication was fast, responsive and stress free. We were very comfortable with him on our big day as well as for our engagement photos. The only thing I would mention is to practice poses ahead of time, some were a little repetitive and lacked the "instagram wow" feel but if you're someone not good with posing, James will give suggestions so don't worry. The best part is you get to keep all of the photos not just the selected edited ones. I now realized not all photographers will give you the entire gallery which would be a huge disappointment for your big day. I like his editing style which is realistic and authentic with enhanced color. As many mentioned, turn around time was super fast. James also made several small edits to our final gallery to make the pictures even better. Pricing was reasonable. Overall it was a pleasant experience.

Finding a photographer for a surprise proposal is daunting enough. Add in the fact that we had just…read morearrived to Orange County and knew no one in Southern California, and it was downright stressful! Mary made it less so. With her knowledge of the area, she was able to add in a few helpful tips on how to make the day even more magical, from proposal tips to info about the location I planned on. But let's talk about what you really want to hear about: the photos. After the butterflies and excitement of a proposal, my fiancée and I were so nervous that we didn't know how to take photos afterwards. Mary got us distracted -- encouraging me to talk about how I asked for her parents blessing -- and shot some amazing photos. As a testament to Mary's skills, or perhaps my fiancée's beauty, we retouched exactly zero photos. On top of that, within a few days we had a link in our mailbox to see them all, just in time for an Instagram post. I cannot recommend Mary enough. Thank you!

We stopped by on a weekday in the late afternoon and practically had the place to ourselves. Another family arrived shortly after, but it was still very relaxed and easygoing. The process was super simple. You can make a reservation, but we just walked in without any issues. We did the white background setup for 15 minutes, which was perfect and definitely a must if you're taking photos with little kids. There were a few technical difficulties during our session, but the staff member was incredibly accommodating. He paused the timer and gave us those minutes back so we didn't lose any of our shoot time. The pricing is great too! The package includes 2 people and 3 printed 4x6 photos of your favorite shots. Additional people are only $5 each, but they didn't charge us for our toddler or newborn, which was such a nice surprise. One of the best parts is that you get access to download every single digital photo from your session, not just a select few. Overall, we had a wonderful experience and ended up with so many great family photos. definitely considering coming back for another shoot

Truly, once you experience Cathy's work, it's hard to imagine working with anyone else What sets Cathy apart is her incredible attention to detail and organization. She takes the time--before, during, and after each session--to ensure everything turns out perfectly. She's easy to communicate with, genuinely listens to what you want, and goes above and beyond to make it happen. Her studio is also spotless and welcoming, making the entire experience comfortable for everyone. Highly, highly recommend!
