    There really wasn't much foliage to work with, but Katrina made it magical!
    Amber E.

    We...loved....Katrina! She was so awesome to work with. My husband and I were looking for a photographer for our engagement photos and small civil ceremony. We got some initial recommendations from friends and browsing the internet, but everyone we looked into was SO expensive. We were concerned about the budget, because we will be doing a second (larger) ceremony in a year, so that would double the money spent on photographers. We found Katrina on Yelp and really liked her work on her website...the same great work as we would be getting paying double with someone else. We had a very short timeline, so we actually didn't get to meet her until the day of our wedding (we did it all a little backward, taking the engagement photos after the civil ceremony so we could use them on the invitations for the larger ceremony next year). However, it felt like we had known her for awhile, because she was so easy to work with. She was exactly the personality we had hoped for - relaxed and funny but also honest enough to tell us if a pose just didn't look good or if we needed to move differently into the light. A week or so after the event, she sent us a small selection of photos so that we didn't have to wait for all of them. They were *awesome*. I was so impressed how she worked with the setting to turn the photos into something magical...something beyond what I could have imagined with the setting. A couple weeks after that, she sent us a link to access all the photos online as well as a USB (I had no idea what elegant USB's were on the market...but 10/10 for presentation). Now we have all the photos and can print whichever ones we want. She was phenomenal to work with and we would highly highly recommend her! Thank you for everything, Katrina!

    My husband and I used Katrina Davis photography services for our wedding in March of 2016. Katrina was an incredibly professional and astute photographer and an absolute pleasure to work with. I met with her once before outlining our general vision for the day and all other communication was done via email. On the big day, I had previously sent her a shot list and brought a copy myself, but she had it all down as well. We knew that we were in good hands! She was able to blend in with our ceremony and at no point did her services seem like they were "getting in the way of anything," however, that's not to say that she wasn't able to hold her own with a rowdy bunch of family members that needed a little direction when posing for photographs. She was able to be kind but also offer directions about who needed to get in the photo next and directing everyone so that we could get over the formal parts and get on to the fun. However, the true testimant of a photographer are the photos that you get after the day-of, and we were so phenomenally pleased with ours. Katrina offered an online gallery as well as a USB flash drive of all the photos. The photos are fantastic and are in the style that you can see on her website. She captured amazing formals as well as candid moments and we would recommend her services to anyone looking for them, wedding celebrations or otherwise. Thank you Katrina!

    Katrina shot our Russian River wedding in September. She was so much fun to work with. Katrina, and her second shooter, showed up on time and got straight to work. I didn't even notice her during the ceremony, but she somehow managed to get some incredibly close-up shots. She was friendly, professional, and had a great sense of humor. Our wedding was running a bit behind schedule, as weddings do, and she agreed to stay a bit longer in order to shoot the first dance and Havah Nagila. We got our pictures back about two months post wedding, and they are gorgeous. She uses natural light to create a soft, ethereal look. We have some great staged shots, as well as beautiful candids. I would highly recommend Katrina to anyone looking for a wedding photographer.

    One of our favorite wedding photos captured by Katrina.

    My boyfriend, now fiance, worked with Lusa to have her (secretly) photograph us during his…read moreproposal. My fiance continues to rave about how easy it was to work with her, as he was extremely nervous but it was clear she genuinely cared about making him feel comfortable and confident that she would come through and beautifully capture the big moment. The proposal was to happen at Dolores Park, which he'd previously scouted out and selected what was supposed to be a secluded location. Unexpected plans came up and Lusa graciously accommodated the schedule change - which also meant that the proposal was now happening on May 5... yes, Cinco de Mayo, a total curve ball. Dolores Park was jam packed with thousands of drunken festival go-ers, so the location he had mind was now out of the question. During the minutes leading up to the rendez vous point, he was sneaking off to text message her and coordinate a new plan.... of which Lusa not only was there early but she managed to scout out a NEW location (at the bridge overlooking the park) for him to lead me to and pop the question. This turned out to be a BETTER location - the bridge arches added a new dimension to the backdrop in our photos my fiance, not having an experienced photographer's eye, would not have picked up. During the big moment, Lusa carefully hid behind a statue and took candid shots of my fiance pouring his heart out - After the proposal, my fiance reveals that Lusa was there photographing us the whole time - and she proceeded to take such posed shots of me showing off my new bling :) These pictures will definitely go into our wedding slide show, in the mean time, it's part of our "save the date" for the engagement party :) We loved Lusa's elegant (but not overly abstract) images, and her over the top dedication and commitment so much that we are having her shoot my "dam hoi", the traditional Vietnamese engagement ceremony. She's taken the time to meet with me to go through the day's events and allow me to highlight the particular moments that will definitely need to be captured. I can't wait for my second round with her, updates on that to come - Also worth noting is that while she's been photographing for a while now, she has recently expanded into and focus more on engagements and wedding ceremonies, making her more reasonable and within my budget than others I looked at on the market. As you can see from our experience, she will work with you and your plans to make sure your treasured moments are forever digitally documented - WE WHOLE HEARTEDLY RECOMMEND LUSA!

    Lusa is super professional and easy to work with. She showed up to our appt on time, made us feel…read morecomfortable within 5 minutes and went to work. Our photos looked so natural. Not that I know too much about photography technique, but I'm sure Lusa really has skills. She was able to use sunlight in our pics at the right angles which made our photos look like they are from a magazine. Her prices are very reasonable and I would definitely recommend her!

    AGB Photographics - I love that this photo was taken on a swing set. What a great way to get me to relax and have some fun with the shoot!

    When I recently came onto the job market and looked at my eight-year-old head shot on LinkedIn, I…read morerealized I was way overdue for a new one. For me, the challenge was finding a photographer to capture my personality and avoid an overly-formal, stiff-looking head shot. Working backwards from the best head shot I'd ever seen - my friend Donna's photo is natural, warm, engaging, and exactly HER - I asked Donna to give me the name of her photographer, and it happened to be Angela Banchi. Angela and her approach to photography was wonderful from start to finish. We exchanged several email volleys on the kind of shot I was looking for, the setting, the timing, and scheduling a makeup artist and hair stylist. The day of the shoot, Angela advised me on wardrobe options, chose several great locations in the park, and did what I needed most: made me feel comfortable. Really, who wants to smile on cue 1,000 times in a row? Angela posted the online proofs immediately following the shoot; reviewing them and selecting my favorites was a snap. Within a day Angela had retouched my final selections, and I now have eight excellent hi-resolution and eight web images to choose from. I thank Angela for taking me from dreading to actually enjoying the photo shoot. I couldn't be more pleased with the final result and highly recommend Angela to anyone looking for a head shot that captures their personality.

    I hate having my photo taken! Angie took business portraits of me and her warm personality made me…read morefeel much more comfortable than I expected. I had a fun time with her--but more importantly, through the photos, she captured "me" and the way I feel about my work as a wedding officiant. When I look at the photos, I feel that my potential clients see the deep love I have for my work. She captured expression and depth that I don't recall seeing in photos of myself. I love, love, love my portraits. They are ME and convey an image that feels congruent with who I am and how approachable I want to feel to my clients. I am very, very happy and highly recommend Angie for business portraits, weddings and events, and all your people-involved professional photography needs.
