After a quick phone call to go over the details, he immediately jumped into action and made the entire process stress free. Shaun captured our proposal perfectly and delivered absolutely stunning photos that exceeded every expectation. On top of that, he sent us sneak peeks the very next day, which made us even more excited to see the full gallery. Throughout the experience, Shaun was professional, patient, experienced, and attentive to what we wanted. He made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and captured every special moment beautifully. If you're looking for someone who is passionate about their work, I can't recommend Shaun enough. I would absolutely hire him again!!

Not only were the photos amazing and captured our love perfectly, but she kept our timetable on point and was super helpful with keeping the day on track. She's super fun and sweet and overall just great to work with. When I look back at my wedding photos it reminds me of what a special day it was. She captured memories that my brain was too overwhelmed to register in the moment, that might've been lost forever if I didn't have the photographic evidence. I will cherish these photos forever

She captured our wedding perfectly, and set the mood and tone for the entire event. She was extremely professional and made it so easy to keep on a timeline so we didn't have to worry about anything that day. When I look back on my photos the joy of the day radiates out of them, which is incredible to capture in a single picture! She made the photo taking process so easy, even though my husband and I aren't big photo takers and is just a wonderful human who is so easy to work with. The next time we need any photos in the future I am definitely calling upon her. I'm at a loss for words for how happy I am with our photos, and just cannot recommend her enough.

Both Pauleen and Myro are incredibly talented and professional photographers. Pauleen helped make us feel entirely at ease in front of the camera with her directions and constantly hyping us up. On our wedding day, she knew all the best photo spots at our venue and was able to get us a wide variety of photos for our couple's portraits. Myro did a fantastic job getting photos of all our guests during the cocktail hour. We had several guests compliment how friendly he was and how many people he captured. In the background leading up to our wedding day, the True Photography team helped put a photography timeline that aligned with our wedding coordinator's timeline. This helped ensure we got all the photos needed included first looks, couple's portraits, family portraits, etc. No special moment was missed by the team throughout the wedding. From first looks to dancing at the end of the night, we the full story of our wedding day captured!

True team helped us create a thorough timeline while offering suggestions/clarification so we knew what to expect and see the vision! Alex, Sheryl, and Dillan were assigned as our wedding day True team! Alex kept us on track with getting important photos and staying within the timeline. Alex was clear on posing directions and had such a calm demeanor/communication style that helped me feel reassured. Sheryl was our second photographer who captured the best candids and fun moments (e.g. one of the groomsmen had his shirt off and I didn't know until we saw the photos! HAHA). Dillan was here, there, and everywhere to get the best angles for our first dance, games, and guest reactions. Looking at our photos, I'm floored with how beautiful they turned out! The wedding day came and went like a flash, but now we have sooo many photos to remind us of the happy and heartwarming moments from that day. Excited to see how the videos turn out! Highly recommend considering True Photography & Video!

As a wedding coordinator, I'm always a little skeptical when working with new vendors because you never know what to expect in terms of professionalism, communication, and work ethic.

His sense of humor and lighthearted personality made the experience enjoyable for both the couple and the vendor team. From what I've seen on social media, his work is absolutely stunning, and I can't wait to see the full gallery from our event. I would confidently recommend Brandon to my clients and look forward to the opportunity to work with him again in the future.

My husband was so thrilled and thankful for the service we received. Not only did she travel to my getting ready location, but she also followed us to the venue where she proceeded to take more shots of us. While I have known Erika for a few years, I can guarantee my review is certainly not biased, for I am extremely picky about professionality and quality of the work I am paying for. Erika and Hannah teamed up to capture the "money shots" (our first looks walking down the aisle) and any other shots we wanted to take. I honestly couldn't have asked for a better photographer. Erika and Hannah were enjoyable to be around, remained professional, and stayed for several hours to capture my entire day. You will not be disappointed with Erika and her team. She is a perfectionist and a true artist. Some moments are not possible to capture with the naked eye. She uses her artistic vision to capture these moments so you can have them forever. Again, she is someone you want to capture your special day. You will not be disappointed with her service. "If you want someone completely professional who you won't even notice at your wedding while she's working, and can take amazing shots, then she is the photographer for you. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone having a wedding or other events or family portraits or whatever. She is versatile with her craft so there's no way you won't like her or her work. She is definitely going to go far in her career, so book her while you can." - Jacob Pinkney (my husband)

The photos came in the exact time she quoted us but the edits look like pictures taken and edited off an iPhone. Not happy with them. I had to re-crop and edit majority of all photos as best I could as all the edits completely washed out our skin tone, the colors of the sky etc. I asked for the raws so I could just edit them myself from scratch and it's been 2 weeks and still haven't received them. Didn't remind us or inform to take phones/wallets out of pockets so those just look lovely in all our photos **sarcasm**. Book with someone else who knows what they're doing and takes their time on special memories like this. Updating my review! Got some of the raws back a day after making my review, which was nice of her to send as she said she didn't usually do so, but the quality of the photos look like they were taken on an iPhone..it was nice to see some of the photos that didn't come through as finals. Aside from how the photos came out, the one positive was that Anel was easy to communicate with and nice overall!!

I am thrilled to now be able to share with the world how absolutely wonderful Shayna Zaday from…read moreZaday Productions truly is!! Shayna and her team are one of the most talented and professional videographer/photographer teams in the industry. I first discovered Shayna when I was looking for a simple promotional video for my online clothing company, Doris & Franny. She grasped my concept and vision almost instantly and traveled to LA for the day to shoot. At our first sit down to review the piece, I was instantly sold on her talent. Excellent execution and editing. The music chosen was perfect and her turnaround time was better than I had asked for. I have since used the promotional video on several marketing sites and worked with Shayna and her team on two additional occasions to shoot Lookbooks for my clothing company. I was so happy with her work that I asked her to film a music video during my bachelorette party in Palm Springs. We sat down with some of my girlfriends and brainstormed the story we were trying to tell. Shayna took it and ran with it. She created a music video for me that I was able to share with all my girlfriends that came. It embraced the vibe of the weekend almost effortlessly and was edited to perfection. She encompassed the love, fun, and craziness of a "girl's weekend" and gave it an awesome "bride to be" twist. I was head over heels in love with it. It was amazing to me that she was able to take these crazy concepts we were throwing at her and turn it into a live, well filmed and well edited story. Having been so impressed with Shayna's work ethic, professionalism, and true talent, I hired her a third time to film my wedding, across the country. She captured every important moment with elegance and class. I could not have been more happy with the final product. It brought me to tears. Reliving that day through her seamless transition of each vital moment was beyond what I could have hoped for. Shayna and her team dedicate themselves to your vision and execute on that vision seamlessly. She has a wide variety of talent and can do anything! She has an incredible eye for finding the perfect moment. She takes all your emotions, along with the surrounding environment, and beautifully creates a memory you can keep forever. I highly recommend Zaday Productions for all your videographer/photographer needs. I have come to rely on Shayna for her incredible talent, turnaround times, and professionalism. I have found in one company the perfect team for memories I want to make and moments I want to last forever. It is with an immense amount of gratitude to Shayna and her team I write this review and recommend her to all of you.

During our engagement session I think we worked them for the entire time we were entitled to. Three different locations all over San Diego County. Never once did they complain. Finally, for our wedding, they worked their butt off and produced photos that were beautiful and Instagram worthy. Being "customers for life" Holly shot our Christmas photos as well. She was great with kids. I can't wait to work with them again.
