Candice and Mark are amazing. I talked to them about a year out from our wedding reception after…read morefinding them on the list of recommended vendors for our venue, and I felt like I immediately hit it off with them. As a couple who have also been together for many years and didn't want all of the hoopla of a big wedding themselves, I felt like they really got our style and personalities. Plus, the photos that they did of other couples at Millwick were gorgeous and exactly the kind of photos we were looking for! After booking them, we didn't really have to do very much up until a few weeks from the big day. At that point, we provided them with our day-of schedule and some logistical information. Everything went really smoothly and easily, since they were already really familiar with our venue and location. We only booked one photographer, but both Candice and Mark decided to come on the day-of, so we were really excited to finally meet both of them in person. We spent the first hour pre-reception getting amazing couple photos at some awesome spots in downtown LA. They both have a great eye for spotting cool, industrial spots that I would never have thought twice about. This hour was really memorable because not only did the photos turn out beautiful, but Candice and Mark made us so comfortable. We're not exactly camera-loving people, so they made this fun for us. The awkwardness at the beginning gave way to a really goofy and cute experience that I felt like really captured us as a couple. After seeing the photos, I'm definitely glad we listened to what they were saying about poses that seem silly in real life actually turn out really nice in photos. Plus, they were great about making adjustments to our face and hands to ensure a flattering turn-out (no double chins!). My only regret was not doing this session longer! Then, they helped us transition to the reception and managed to get through all of our huge family photos with no trouble at all. For the rest of the evening, they went around getting great shots of our guests and were totally unintrusive. Even the posed photos that you wouldn't expect much of turned out to be great because of their technique, lighting, and use of the beautiful pops of color around the venue. We got the edited photos in about two weeks after our event, and we were blown away with how they turned out! Some of the guest photos were so flattering that I couldn't help but include them in our holiday cards. We got both a link to download all of the high res photos and a link to a shop for lower res photos if we wanted to order any through the site or send it out to friends and family. Overall, I highly recommend Candice and Mark for producing beautiful photos of your big day!

It's not often you can consider yourself a "lifetime customer" of any particular business, but that…read moreis exactly how we feel about Mark and Candice at Mark Brooke Photography. We booked them a year in advance for both our engagement photos and as our day-of-wedding paparazzi, and we could not be more pleased with how fun and charming working with them was on both occasions. They truly know how to make their subjects comfortable and calm to get the most perfect shots possible, and they are both just rad people to be around. When they needed to direct us they did so easily and with a smile; when they needed to disappear into the background they took the most amazing candid pictures to capture each moment without us knowing they were there. We were blown away by their final edited pictures of our special day, it is obvious that they are so passionate in their craft, and want to make every shot a work of art, which they do! We will be calling Mark and Candice for any occasion we need a photographer, and highly recommend them to anyone who needs a great photography team whose love and dedication shines from the first shot to the final print. We love you guys!

She helped refine the brief, delivered beautiful images and captured all the details that made the day special and memorable. Stephanie is an utter delight to work with; easygoing, lovely to be around, and ridiculously talented. Our elopement photos were even published in Vogue Australia! If you are looking to engage a photographer who takes the stress out of the day instead of adding to it, and is a lovely to be around, Stephanie will be right for you. Couldn't recommend her highly enough. https://www.vogue.com.au/brides/trends/inside-a-lowkey-californian-desert-elopement-set-at-joshua-tree/image-gallery/2338fc33712cb1d18f00704d2ca7974a

Our venue was stately. My dress was gorgeous. My flowers were whimsical and our food was delish…read more But by far, the best wedding decision we made (aside from each other ;) ) was choosing Stephanie and Isaac as our photographers. We got married at the Legion of Honor in October, which basically equates to zero clout with San Francisco wedding photographers. They all have many Legion photos in their portfolios, and chic city brides clamoring for their September and October availability. Our budget was doable, and I didn't mind if we didn't get an album, but I did want the raw files at the end of the deal, and I didn't want to pay an extra $2K for them (seriously, that was the rate of an unnamed photog we intv'ed). I didn't see the point of considering out of town photographers where we would have to pay for travel. That is, until we found Stephanie Williams Photography. Stephanie and Isaac were super interested in our venue. They researched before calling us back, which impressed me about how seriously they take their work. We had a great skype intv with them and not only could see spending the most intense day of our lives with them, but also liked their questions and their thoughtful answers to ours. Oh, and they were seriously fair on travel costs and really seemed to have an artistic interest in capturing our big day. Nice :). The week before my wedding weather.com decided to take a nice break from the typical 80's San Francisco epic indian summer we had been experiencing and put some rain in the forecast. Make that lots of rain, 3 days worth, that despite moving around on the forecast throughout my 10 minute interval page refreshes, stood firm on Saturday 10/23/10. Blah. Basically, I lost my sh*t as I had not even considered a rainy wedding and had about 15 SF locations pegged for my day of photos around town, not to mention a courtyard ceremony. In between reloading weather.com and taking out frustration on my escort cards, I put on my big girl pants, bought some golf umbrellas and rain boots and figured that the mere fact that I was now prepared would usher the rain away. Yes, I was prepared, but no, my plan did not work. I had a rainy day wedding... but Stephanie + Isaac absolutely ROCKED IT!!!!! They reassured me that although I would not get the photos I had envisioned, my photos would still be no less than amazing and now more unique and romantic. They were right and the result was no less that mind blowing. Isaac is a photography ninja. Point in case: when he arrived at the bridal suite I was pretty sure I had been doorbell ditched until he climbed out of the fire escape he had hopped onto to not waste those 30 seconds and get some city shots. The man is seriously coordinated and put his physical state in jeopardy multiple times throughout the night and captured some ridiculous shots as a result. Much appreciated. Stephanie's artistic vision is unmatched. The angles, slight nuances and beauty she captures is unbelievable. Everything in my photos is so much more grand and exquisite than even I remember it. She is also so warm and calm. She puts you at ease, poses you perfectly and makes you feel as if you've had all these untapped modeling skills all along. You probably haven't; she is that good. These two get BONUS POINTS for standing in the rain with no camera-free hand for an umbrella, coaxing us to continue and get in more shots. Once the festivities began they virtually disappeared, only to jump out of the shadows, trigger finger pressed on camera, firing away to capture all that transpired. OMG, our flamboyant uncle is dancing with an umbrella? Yup, got it. My immature cousins laughing at the nude statues in the gallery? Savored. My husband and I's day of glow of love, excitement, exhaustion and sheer bliss? Captured in all it's glory.... :) I can honestly say I am glad that it rained on our wedding day - the photos are unbelievable and so incredibly romantic and unique. And I still got my shots on baker beach. http://stephaniewilliamsphotography.com/blog/2010/12/16/kristen-jeff-wedding/

This was my first time scheduling a professional photo shoot so I didn't know what to expect. Dawn is so friendly and from my original interaction with her via Instagram DM she would reach out and ask what colors were we planning to wear and would suggest what kind of colors and items such as clothing pieces, makeup, to put together for the best outcome for our photos. My fiancé and I chose to take our photos in San Pedro. The day we met Dawn and her partner in crime Jonathan - they were so cool and down to earth. When we met that day we immediately went to work taking pictures. She directed us with our poses. It was really so much fun that time literally flew! It was a two hour photo session that went a little over time but was so much fun. We've received our photos in less than a week.. we chose 12 out of all that was sent but gosh I can't stop looking at them because they are so amazing!!

My wife and I started searching for photographers back in late 2016 after we got engaged. Our venue was set in Orange County, and despite living 4 hrs away from our venue, we wanted photographers from that local area. Photography was extremely important to us, but we were on a tight budget so we decided to browse Craigslist in Orange County. As we soon discovered, many of the photographers were reasonably priced, but their style did not match what we desired. Soonafter, we discovered the Martin Fisher Photography ad. At the time, they had only a few weddings and engagement photos posted on their website. However, their artistic style was exactly what we were looking for (candid, emotional, wide shots, close-ups, attention to detail). We first met the photographers in January 2017, we almost could have missed these two. They looked like they were still in highschool yet their level of professionalism felt like they've done this for years. They clearly explained their pricing and photography process to us. They showed us samples of their work that was not posted on the website. After that meeting, we knew they were the right photographers for us. All the photos that they took for us came out beautiful, and they were exactly as we wanted. They shot our engagement in Los Angeles (East LA and DTLA), our wedding in The Hacienda, Santa Ana, and our day after shoot in Joshua Tree. We loved all our photos. They were always up for shooting no matter what location we chose. They helped us pose in order to capture great moments. They got beautiful and emotional shots during the all our shoots. These photographers go above and beyond your expectations. Their photos will last a lifetime for my wife and I. I am so happy we chose Martin Fisher Photography. We recommend them for any occasion, engagement, wedding, day after, and maternity. They are no longer just photographers to us, they have become our friends. Thank you again Alexis and Justin! We look forward to seeing your photographs in wedding magazines!
