Our main concern was we needed a photography team that was just as excited about our same-sex wedding as we were. After visiting with 3 potential photography companies we knew Holly Ireland was the most fun and of course had the best style to their photography. 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.

The whole process was seamless, even throughout editing. We will absolutely look to Voltage Digital for future endeavors.

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.

Stephanie and I were quickly in communication about an option for a location and we chose Balboa Park. She was able to take such great photos in the midst of huge crowds that were so focused on us.

She was so fun and made us INSTANTLY feel at ease in front of the camera--even my husband who is intensely camera shy has some amazing laughing and smiling photos from this shoot. She has such great prompts and love for what she does and we highly recommend her artistry! Will definitely be booking her again!

My wife and I were recommended to Steph by a close friend after getting engaged. After an online meeting due to Covid, we found Steph to be a cool, easygoing and professional. We had our engagement photos done by her in Balboa Park and we were thrilled with how they turned out- we knew we picked the perfect photographer. Steph offered a great incentive-that if you use her for engagement photography and love the photos (like you will), she included everything in a package as our wedding photographer where the engagement photo session was discounted! Bonus! The wedding was amazing and Steph and her partner captured every angle imaginable with their own style. She brought on a sense of calm amongst all the calamity that helped us be in the moment to produce quality photos. She was also kind enough to send a congratulatory gift when all was said and done. Such class.. **If you are looking for a professional, upbeat, fun, dedicated photographer- look no further! Steph Sousa Photography is the ultimate. You will not regret it!!**

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.

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!

Irish is super sweet and easy to talk to and she makes you feel comfortable when taking photos - something that I am always extremely awkward with.

While I normally photograph pretty badly, she did a wonderful job at getting the perfect moments and capturing the sunset. I wish she could shoot our wedding, but she's pretty popular so I'd book her early if you can!

Needless to say, when it came time to have OUR engagement photos taken, I knew precisely who we'd be turning to. We had the absolute best time shooting with her.

What's more, she couldn't have captured Us more perfectly. We couldn't be more thrilled with these photos if we tried & we couldn't recommend her more highly :) (And man, are we ever going to be on the lookout for an occasion to shoot with her again.)
