From start to finish, Daria was an absolute professional--warm, responsive, and incredibly easy to work with. She arrived right on time, was fully prepared (even bringing the perfect lighting setup for the indoor evening portion of the event), and was wonderfully attentive to all of my instructions and preferences. Her rates were also very reasonable, especially given the high quality of her work. Daria delivered the photos very quickly, and to my delight, the images hardly needed any retouching at all. Aside from a bit of cropping to match my personal style, the photos were beautiful straight out of the camera--crisp, vibrant, and full of emotion. She truly captured the spirit and significance of the evening. I wholeheartedly recommend Daria for any special occasion or professional event. Her talent, preparedness, and professionalism made an already meaningful evening even more memorable. Highly, highly recommended!

My husband and I booked Heather for what was supposed to be an August 2020 wedding. Well, yadda…read moreyadda yadda, things didn't quite go to plan. Heather was so beyond flexible and accommodating with us as our date changed and changed again, and hung on with us until 2022 when we finally were able to have our special day on April 9th. Just to reiterate, we booked her in SUMMER OF 2019. That is true dedication. I know many other "COVID brides" who struggled with coordinating date changes with vendors, so I am so thankful that Heather always made it work for us and kept a positive attitude about everything. As far as her actual work, Heather made us feel so comfortable both during our engagement shoot and the wedding (we are shy, nerdy people who are not comfortable in front of a camera). She is friendly, very easy to talk to, and guided us perfectly as we awkwardly walked while holding hands, stared into each others' eyes and attempted to hug like human beings. She kept family photos moving along, got all the shots we needed, and had a great vision for the whole day. The photos so exceeded my expectations, and I was over the moon when I saw the final album. Thank you Heather for sticking with us and documenting the most fun and special day.

Alyssa's photographs captured the essence of each moment with stunning beauty. Alyssa has an incredible eye for detail and a talent for capturing moments as they naturally unfold. Her photography brought out the beauty in every aspect of our wedding, from the small, intimate interactions to the broader, more scenic shots. Her ability to use natural light and thoughtful composition resulted in images that were not only visually stunning but also deeply meaningful. She also did a great job directing all the family and friends so that everyone looked natural and we were on track with the timeline. Overall, we would definitely recommend Alyssa and her team to capture your big day!

Our Friday church wedding was at St. Brendan Church of Los Angeles and our Saturday wedding and reception was located at The Ebell of Los Angeles in Los Angeles, CA. We also had one engagement session with her about 3 months prior to our wedding weekend. We are so incredibly grateful and so happy with Alyssa's direction and creativity. Alyssa was an absolute joy to work with. She's so professional, efficient, talented, smart, and she knows how to given clear directions on posing which was much needed for us. She's very responsive, detail oriented, and has such a friendly personality which made her so fun to work with! I always felt empowered to step into and own my confidence when I was being guided by Alyssa's posing - this is a huge plus if you're not yet confident in front of the camera. The encouragement she displayed really helped me own it! Not to mention my husband and I both felt so calm on the day of our Friday church wedding and Saturday wedding & reception once we started our days with her. Engagement shoot (1.5 hrs): Alyssa knew exactly how we wanted our vision to be - we actually had done 2 engagement shoots with two different photographers prior to Alyssa and had little success with our previous wedding photographer. Alyssa understood we were gravitating to a more clean and classic style of photography. We were so happy with the results from our engagement shoot that we ended up using the photos for our details card in our invitation suite, our photo guestbook, and on a slideshow at our Saturday wedding! Friday Church Wedding Day (3 hrs): We had a church ceremony the day prior to our Saturday Ebell of Los Angeles wedding. Alyssa was so flexible in picking up these extra hours for us even though I had little timeline information for her. On the actual day of she was so helpful in helping calm any nerves I had and even tried helping my mom with her makeup. She's a jack of all trades! She was quick to help me with my veil and styling (jewelry and posing) as well. I'm so excited to see how the results turn out! At the church wedding itself Alyssa was very quick and kept to the schedule and timeline I gave her. We only had 45 min for our portraits, family, sponsor, and group photos. Alyssa gave clear direction to all of us and I know my family really enjoyed working with her. Saturday Ebell Wedding Day (9 hrs): We were so happy to see so many great sneak peeks the Tuesday after our Saturday wedding. Alyssa captured photos my husband and I will cherish for the rest of our lives. The photos are clean and filled with emotion and one of them is so creative (it's a photo of my husband spinning me in B&W). On the day of Alyssa was excellent in working with our families and our bridesmaids and groomsmen. She was so helpful all around (helping fix my dress and veil so it looks good for the shots) and she was also great working with our dog, Arwen. I am so impressed with our sneak peeks and I can't wait to use them for our Thank You cards and I already used them for Instagram and TikTok content. Alyssa helped get us back on schedule and made sure we were being effective with time and also timed the sunset photos for the best shots. We trust Alyssa so much and have so much faith in her artistic craft. We could not be happier with the great service Alyssa provides and we highly recommend her if you're in search for a wedding photographer.

Yelp review I am not one to typically leave reviews on here…read morebut this is well deserved. My husband and I got married September 4, 2022. We found Julian through social media and as a young couple (myself in nursing school and my husband new to his Air Force career) needed quality wedding photos without costing a complete fortune. We met him last year for our engagement shoot. No red flags at all. Julian and his wife at the time, Lacey were great and our engagement pics turned out beautiful. Leading up to the wedding, there were some red flags that alarmed us and we quickly reached out to Julian. As he publicly shared on his Instagram that they were going through a divorce , things turned messy real quick. Julian called me at 3 am, breaking the client vendor relationship. As if I was going to help him with his family issues. Then my husband and I noticed that he was going live on his Instagram account. He was publicly sharing his divorce, and what looked like drug abuse. We understand that people go through troubles, and we quickly asked him if this would affect our wedding. He reassured us that everything would be fine and that he would be at our wedding. After us after several meetings prior to the wedding, we were reassured that everything was fine and that he had everything under control. He was even posting that he was working on other weddings, and what looks like no problems at all from the outside. The wedding day came, and he showed up an hour late may I add. The most important day of my life, and after giving him a list of photos that I wanted, it was not met. The location that I got ready at and the venue were about 15 minutes apart and Julian left way before I did and wasn't there to get photos of me getting my dress on with my mom. For that matter, I don't have any pictures with my mom at all from that day. On the day of, I was telling him what pictures to take. He had no sense of control over the wedding. We also took sunset pictures which ultimately ended up being in the dark because he had us an hour behind schedule. He kept sneaking away for "water" breaks in the parking lot when pictures needed to be taken. We had plenty of water and drinks for him to have yet he kept escaping to the parking lot. Time goes by after the wedding, and I still have never received sneak peaks and to this day, I haven't received sneak peaks. I start confronting him asking for dates of when I will receive my stuff, and all of a sudden his laptop was mysteriously hacked into. He has gone live on Instagram at random times in the middle of the night, showing his altered mental state. Finally my husband and I had a chance to talk to him on the phone and he said that he was getting his laptop fixed. My husband asked if we could receive the raw photos because it was in the contract and we didn't want to risk anything happening to his laptop again. He agreed but I had to purchase a $80 hard drive and drive four hours total to another city to meet him to get my pictures downloadied. My dad and I planned to meet him at a local Starbucks and he showed up over an hour late. After sitting in a Starbucks for six hours, I patiently waited for my photos to download onto the hard drive. He told us that by October 3 we would have sneak peaks and by October 13th we would have the final result of photo and video. That date came and it was pushed back even further. Then we were told by October 17 at 6 AM we would have sneak peaks and by October 26 we would have the final result of everything. Those days arrived, and still nothing in our possession. We have called him , texted him , social media messages, countless of times and no responses at all. We were scammed. I called my bank to file a claim and no luck. Julian is posting on social media that he has money and is collecting more deposits from new clients when he hasn't even helped his past clients. The heartbreak that my husband and I have gone through from what would've been the best day of our lives is now ruined, because those memories will never return. Like I said, we are a young couple and my husband lives in another state serving our country while I complete nursing school. To dress up again in our wedding outfits and pay someone else to take our photos is just not ideal (and definitely not the same). We have special pictures with our grandparents and parents and other family members that can never be done again. Julian is stealing money from innocent families and getting away with it. Despite going through personal struggles, we expect honesty and communication. We just want our edited photos and video. This is what we paid for. Julian does beautiful work and for our engagement shoot he was great to work with, but I do not recommend him to anyone because I do not want anyone to go through what we have gone through. Here are just some screenshots of the conversations and the ignored messages that I've been sent.
