We were looking for a photographer for specifically group pictures but I'm really happy Owen went beyond my original request to take more pictures of our happy day! I loved the direction he provided and I was super pleased with how quickly and easily he worked with our DJ and Emcee to seamlessly capture the important moments! Our pictures were delivered quickly, with an additional skin retouching service for that extra glow. I would definitely add him to my event team again if I had something in the area. Thanks Owen!!

We booked them for our Engagement shoot, Tea Ceremony, and Wedding. It was so nice to be able to have a consistent photographer throughout all three events. By the time we wedding came my now wife was super comfortable with them, she was a bit camera shy at first. Kevin is absolutely wonderful, great at making everyone feel at ease and was able to get so many amazing fun photos from our events. Meg was top notch via email. Any questions or concerns? Meg's got it. Very organized and professional photography business. I would highly recommend these photographers. THANKS SO MUCH Y'ALL :')

We had a fun and amazing day having KLV Photography capture all the moments at our wedding! Meg was…read moresuper helpful planning the schedule, providing recommendations, and answering any questions we had. Kevin was our primary photographer, and Danilo was our secondary, and both really made the photo sessions a fun experience for everyone. A lot of laughters and memories were shared among the bridesmaids and groomsmen. Kevin and Danilo made it very easy for us by scoping out locations at the venue and providing great guidance on poses. We're also very happy we decided to do golden hour photos. We were looking for soft and neutral tone photos for our wedding, and KLV's editing style was what drew us in to them. The photos came out beautiful. Thank you to the entire KLV team, and we can't recommend them enough for your special day!

I chose Unique because they were one of the few in the area to offer an all-inclusive package. My…read morepackage included dress and jewelry rental, hair and makeup for the couple, the photoshoot, all raw digital images, 20 edited photos, and a printed canvas. The hair and makeup artist was able to follow my vague instructions and helped customized my overall look, including jewelry choices. She also stayed throughout the shoot for touch-ups, and even helped with posing. Sam's knows what angles to shoot and which lighting works. He guided us through the poses and was able to wrap up our shoot earlier than estimated even though I usually find myself very awkward in front of the camera. I also appreciated that they provide all of the digital files, including the 500+ raw ones. When I wasn't a fan of the initial editing style, Sam was very receptive to my feedback and revised the photos quickly. The reason for 4 stars is the communication. During the consultation, I was hoping for more guidance on ideas since I didn't have a clear vision. I was just shown his portfolio on his tablet and quietly scrolled in front of him. After the shoot, I had to follow up for updates on my raw and edited photos. Only after I reached out first did he respond immediately.

We are both quite awkward with posing, but the team guided us on our poses and made everything really easy for us. The quality of our pictures were exceptional and we loved getting to look back on our wedding day. We hired them last minute for videography and it was the best decision we made. They edited it so beautifully and really captured the love and happiness from that day. The video is something that we will truly cherish for the rest of our lives. We would highly recommend them!

I had to book a last-minute family photoshoot to capture precious moments with family who are…read morerarely in town, and I'm so glad I found Dave and his partner, Florence! From the very beginning, they were fantastic communicators, helping me with everything from choosing the location to discussing the overall style of the shoot. On the day of the session, they were warm, funny, and made everyone feel completely at ease. They were the perfect team to capture our family's memories. It was especially helpful that they spoke both Cantonese and Mandarin, which made communicating with my parents-in-law so much easier. Even more impressively, they somehow managed to get my cranky 9-month-old engaged and smiling throughout the session! And of course, the photos were absolutely stunning. The perfect finishing touch to an already wonderful experience. I couldn't be happier with how everything turned out and will definitely be booking Dave and Florence again. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for talented photographers who truly know how to make the experience enjoyable for the whole family.

I had an outstanding experience with Dave Yip Photography. Dave and his team (his wife) are…read moreincredibly professional, talented, and genuinely committed to capturing the best possible images. From start to finish, the entire experience was smooth, comfortable, and enjoyable. Dave has a great eye for lighting, composition, and detail, but what impressed me most was his ability to make the session feel natural and relaxed. He takes the time to understand what you are looking for and provides excellent direction without making the process feel overly staged. The quality of the final photographs exceeded my expectations. They were polished, professional, natural, and beautifully captured. If you are looking for a photographer who combines technical expertise, creativity, professionalism, and exceptional customer service, I highly recommend Dave Yip Photography. A truly first class experience from beginning to end. Five stars!

There are not enough words to express how much Nicole Kirshner means to me and my family. She has…read morebeen there to capture the most sacred, life-changing moments of my life from my engagement, wedding, pregnancy announcement, pregnancy, newborn photos, and family photos. Every single time she has given us something far beyond photographs. She has given us memories we will treasure forever. Nicole is the most genuine, loving, beautiful soul. From the moment you meet her, you feel safe, understood, and completely cared for. She pours her whole heart into her work, and it shows in every image. Her photos are not just stunning they are emotional, intimate, and alive. She captures love in its purest form. During seasons that were tender, emotional, and overwhelming, Nicole showed up with warmth, patience, and so much love for my family. These are moments you can never get back, and because of her, we get to relive them over and over again. I will forever cherish the times she has helped my family and the way she has preserved our story. I love her so much and am endlessly grateful for her talent, her heart, and her presence in our lives. Choosing Nicole as your photographer means choosing someone who will treat your memories like they matter because to her, they truly do.

As an event planner who has collaborated with Nicole on multiple occasions, I can confidently say…read moreshe is exceptional! She is everything both a client and a planner could want in a photographer talented, professional, calm under pressure, and an absolute pleasure to work with. Nicole is a true creative partner. She has the perfect balance of personality and leadership able to command a room when needed to achieve the shots that matter most, while still photographing in an organic, effortless way that captures the true essence of each moment. Her eye for lighting and angles is exceptional, and her work is consistently artistic, elevated, and timeless. Clients are beyond happy with their decision to book her, and it's easy to see why. Aside from her talent, her turnaround time is incredible. She shares sneak peeks so quickly, which clients always appreciate especially while they're still on that post-wedding high. And planners appreciate as well! Being able to relive such a meaningful day through photos (and video) so soon after the celebration is truly exciting, and Nicole consistently goes above and beyond to deliver galleries as quickly as possible without ever compromising quality. She is an absolute pleasure to work with, and I look forward to many more events together!! Xoxo

Sandra Flores is an absolute gem of a photographer! This is the photographer you need. Not only is…read moreshe incredibly professional, she is kind, wildly creative and fun. Sandra helped us narrow down our idea for our engagement session. We got engaged in 2020 which limited a lot of the fun couples normally get to experience. We shot with Sandra in June of 2021 and it made our experience finally feel real! She made our love come to light and brought tears to my eyes. She selected two locations for us after we told her what we had in mind and it was spectacular. She has the most creative eye and is a true artist. She is easy to communicate with and is very clear in her pricing. She is incredible. I have made sure everyone that will listen knows Sandra Flores is who they need to capture their beautiful life moments. I look forward to many more sessions with Sandra!

As we naturally have emotions and feelings, we tend to want to capture the special moments in our…read morelives. Josh did a remarkable job shooting my engagement and wedding pictures. I'm not a natural model so I didn't know how to pose. I was new and my body was not used to being in front of the camera naturally. But every step of the way, Josh was there being patient and guiding me. For the engagement pictures, due to Josh's expertise and experience, he knew where to go for the best pictures. But if you already have a list of places you want to go, he is open and willing to go to them. To give you an idea of the places he has in his pocket, he took me to Santa Monica Beach and the Venice Beach Canals (who doesn't get their pictures here, right?). But the kicker was this beautiful nature park that literally looked like a rain forest! As for the big wedding day, Josh was the first person there capturing moments from beginning to end. He also had a partner with him to ensure everything was caught. He knew what to do and what type of pictures to take. There were several moments when he told me to do something and thought to myself, "Oh yeah! That's right. I see those wedding pictures all the time!" I just felt bad for him and his partner because they couldn't sit down and eat. They must have been hungry from running around all day! Now as I reflect back and write this, it's been an unforgettable year full of joy and blessings. I appreciate the big moments in my life, but I realize the little moments are just as valuable, something we neglect when we are younger. I have already begun a new chapter in my life, and I can't find a better way to end my last review of 2013, but to write this for him.

Molly is truly an amazing photographer! We did an 1 hour family shoot with our son (dog), and the…read moreshoot went beyond our expectations. It was our first time posing together with our dog but Molly made it feel natural and perfectly transitioned us from one pose to next. Pup was more distracted than usual so we were genuinely surprised how many beautiful shots Molly captured of us. Perfect lighting, mood and all. We did the 1 hr shoot, though it did go bit past, with an outfit change in between. We received way more than the 30+ minimum photos as promised, and they were all beautifully edited. We'd recommend Molly for any occasion shoot!

Starting with the communication, Molly ensured we knew exactly where to park at our beach destination and was quick to respond throughout the entire process as we communicated our ideas for shots we wanted to execute. In terms of our hour long sunset shoot, it was our first photoshoot with our pup so it felt hectic to start, but Molly remained patient with us and helped ensure our visions for the photoshoot were met. The beach was more packed than we had expected, but Molly knew exactly the right spots on the beach to make our shoot productive and worthwhile. Finally, the delivery of our photos was everything we could have asked for and more. We were expecting a 3-4 week turnaround time, but Molly went out of her way to edit and publish our photos within 2 days so that we could receive our gallery before our pup's birthday. Overall, I can't recommend Molly enough! If you are in the Orange County area looking for a photographer for family / milestone photoshoots, Goldensun will not disappoint!
