    Words cannot describe how grateful and glad I am that Kwon was our photographer for our wedding! Our photos look absolutely amazing and he captured every beautiful moment, which we will always treasure! From the very first email inquiry we sent to the very last moment of our wedding, Kwon was so professional and such a joy to work with! We got the engagement + wedding photography package and his prices are extremely reasonable for the beyond-excellent quality of photos and service you get. He is also incredibly meticulous in guiding you to get the best poses/shots. My husband and I are fairly awkward when positioning our bodies to take photos together. But, under Kwon's hawk-eyed attention to detail and his gentle directions, our photos looked so natural and beautiful. He also really listens to what you want, and he takes into consideration the aesthetic you want for your photos. Additionally, I deeply appreciated how personable and encouraging he was. It really made us feel at ease and gave us confidence throughout the photoshoot sessions. I truly cannot recommend him enough to anyone looking for a photographer for their engagement, wedding, or even just couples/family portraits. HE. IS. THE. BEST!!!

    They say a picture is worth a thousand words. If that proverbial expression is true, a good photographer is worth a THOUSAND GRATITUDE. Before reaching out to Kwon, we browsed through many different galleries by different photographers. Some great and some not so of our taste. Eventually, we narrowed it down to two vendors. Initially, what we liked about Kwon's work was the natural emotions shown in the photos. He has a subtle feel for capturing your biggest natural asset, and we were hoping that same type of work would carry over to our engagement and wedding shoot. We selected two locations, Mission San Juan Capistrano and Victoria Beach, for our ENGAGEMENT shoot. Kwon did a fabulous job guiding us on how to pose, smile, and exaggerate our looks. From mid-afternoon to the break of sunset, he was working in every angle possible to get the best shots. Of the two, my favorite photography site was Victoria Beach. Something about photography during sunset makes the mood romantic and beautiful. Our wedding venue was in Rancho Palos Verdes, and we could not have picked a worse time than the day of our wedding. Unfortunately, gusty wind from the ocean made the setting challenging to shoot and the evening to be frigid cold. However, Kwon braved the condition and delivered impressive photos for our day. I am so glad that we went with Kwon and undeniably with NO REGRETS as our photographer for our special moment.

    We just had our wedding this past April and booked Kwon for both our engagement and wedding photos and we were so impressed by his work! We opted for a package deal including engagement + wedding photos with a second shooter for 8 hours day of. For our engagement shoot, it ended up raining so we had to cut our session short but Kwon was so understanding and offered to reschedule another session whenever we were available at no additional cost. Our engagement photos were stunning and I was so thankful we had Kwon directing and posing us. My husband and I are terrible at posing since we tend to feel unnatural, but Kwon made the entire process so much easier and much more comfortable. For our wedding day, Kwon was able to capture every moment perfectly. We are absolutely in love with our wedding photos. He was able to capture all of the little details and memorable moments. Not to mention, we got our photos less than a month from our wedding day, so quick! He is super responsive, very friendly, and just amazing to work with. Thank you so much again, Kwon!

    Kwon was our wedding photographer this past February, and we could not have asked for a better experience. We were a bit nervous because we didn't have our engagement shoot with him, so our wedding day was the first time we met him in person. Kwon was super friendly and easy to get along with! He arrived early, got set up, and started getting to work immediately. He made us camera-shy people feel very comfortable in front of the camera. He gave clear directions and suggestions for poses, including a lot of fun and creative ones! He was also very good working with my awkward Korean parents and even made them laugh candidly for many of the photos, which came out beautifully :) Kwon also knew which moments to capture during the ceremony & reception, so the coverage of the photos was amazing (even while working as a solo photographer!). Kwon delivered sneak peek photos within two days of our wedding, and provided the rest of our wedding album in less than one month! We are obsessed with how all the photos turned out. Thank you, Kwon!!

    When we first met Kwon over video chat, we already felt comfortable communicating with each other and we knew that it would be a great fit for us to have him be our photographer for our engagement shoot and wedding day. From the beginning, Kwon had been informative and helpful in providing us great options to take our photos for our engagement shoot. We were definitely nervous at first since we are not great at posing and taking pictures. Kwon was very professional and experienced and knew all the right poses and angles and just super easy going to make us feel comfortable during the whole process. On the wedding day, Kwon and his assistant were punctual and ready to go with the timeline of photos and even provided great suggestions for how we were going to do the first look and photos during reception with the everyone. He was well liked by all of our family and friends and the outcome of the photos were beautiful. We were on time and even had a little break before the ceremony. We are happy and satisfied with the excellent service and professionalism he provided and would highly recommend to anyone out there!

    Kwon was an amazing photographer for our wedding. He accommodated us and was super flexible during Covid. I had a coworker who had him shoot her engagement and wedding and she referred Kwon to us! My only regret is not doing our engagement photos with him... We visited his office in Fullerton and he gave us a rundown of the different packages and his work. We decided on a package that we wanted and reserved the date for our wedding. We had a small ceremony and he captured all the moments. We didn't have a videographer but Kwon captured every detail (even the play by play of the tears rolling down my cheeks! haha!!). Even if you don't have a separate videographer for your wedding, Kwon will capture every special and important moment as if you're not missing anything out! We were so happy with how our pictures turned out. We're hoping we to have Kwon shoot any future photography services like our future baby's 100 day birthday! Thank you again Kwon for everything and being so accommodating. We really appreciate having you shoot our wedding!

    As always.. Kwon was AMAZING to work with. This was our 2nd time. Our family photos came out more beautiful than I could have imagined. He worked so hard to make our kid smile & laugh w funny noises, bubbles, etc. It's a very difficult job trying to do that for 2+ hours but the photos show the work. I'll always come back to Kwon for all my family photos. He asked for my timeline for photos and I told him I'd like to send out holiday cards in time. He did his best and delivered when he said he would. Man of his word. :) See you in a year along with the entire fam!

    Kwon was wonderful and patient for our daughters first birthday party. Our cranky little girl did not smile once for him, but he did such an amazing job capturing candid moments from the party. He was attentive to record precious moments with our family, friends and even our fur baby! Definitely recommend!

She gave us tips on how to take pics with our #1 balloon and explained everything really well, so we felt super comfortable. We also took pics at the photobooth, and I was surprised by how inexpensive it was to take pictures with the professional cameras (only $5 for 2 copies)! Even though there were still people there past closing, Hazel and the manager/owner didn't rush anyone at all and let everyone enjoy their experience, which I really appreciated. Overall, I would definitely come back again! My only complaint is that I wish we could adjust the camera angle because the camera is set pretty low and my double chin was showingggg (not their fault tho obv). However, the camera quality was amazing~ They also surprised me and my boyfriend with matching keycap keychains that I had been eyeing when I first got there!! They personalized it for us~ That was honestly so sweet and such a nice surprise. Thank you Hazel and the manager/owner for making our first Photogram experience so memorable!!!

The photos turned out so good--they honestly look like they were taken by a professional photographer!

They also have different photo booths you can use inside, and you can even turn your favorite photos into adorable keychains. Such a cute keepsake! We had an amazing time and will definitely be coming back on our next visit (:

Amidst all the chaos of looking for a wedding photographer that had great skills but without the hefty price tag, Tony appeared. It was almost as if he had came from the sky at the right timing to save us. From the initial phone call, I knew we were in good hands. Tony even made time for me on a separate occasion to do a video call with me and my fiancé at the time to go over the logistics and our preferences. He even went through the trouble of creating a timeline for us so we don't go over on time. Tony was quick to respond to any of my phone call requests and I never had any issues communicating with him throughout the whole planning process. On the day of the wedding, Tony arrived on time as promised at the venue we rented out to do the photo shoot before heading to the church for the ceremony. After our formal introductions to each other, Tony got setup and immediately went to work with no time wasted or empty gaps. His attention to detail is flawless and he kept me well informed of what he was doing at all times. I even bought a sandwich for him to eat for lunch but he didn't eat it until the job was finished. Tony helped me and my wife with all our individual shots and gave us tips on how to pose and where to stand. He is very chill and has an upbeat personality where he makes you feel comfortable when talking with him and making requests to him was so easy. Today, we finally received our wedding photos and we were both in awe of how amazing the photos turned out. At the church, I had to ask Tony if I can extend his services by couple hours and he said he will ask his son first, then got back to me a few minutes later and said he was going to accommodate my request when he did not have to. We ended up wrapping up the majority of the events I wanted Tony to capture early so instead of the 2 additional hours, Tony was cool with just the 1 additional hour and he even did us a favor by taking extra photos for us a few minutes past the additional hour but did not charge us for the time we went over. We really lucked out with Tony. He has such a great personality and is a down to earth man who works hard to support his son. We will always be grateful for these beautiful photos and will cherish these memories for our life. Tony, you deserve all the success in the world and I know good things will come your way if you continue to do what you are doing. I hope I can send you some referrals in the future as a small token of our appreciation. But, we know you did more for us, than we did for you. Thank you for coming through for us big time!

I applaud their attention to detail, down to helping me decide what time the appointment should be based on my baby's nap time!

The photo studio is located inside AR Galleria (the main galleria entrance was locked on Sunday afternoon so I had to enter through the side door via Cafe Lowell).

Visitors can also make an online reservation via the studio's website. Upon arrival, I scanned a QR code and signed a waiver before the owner started my 5-minute photo session.

Out of the 7 pictures taken, I was able to choose one for him to print while the rest of pictures can be downloaded via a link in an email. It was more important to receive a digital copy because the US passport renewal process requires applicants to upload a digital photo rather than submit a physical copy. I was able to use one of the digital copies and now that same picture will be on my passport for the next 10 years before the next renewal timeline.

Some backstory...Imagix/Michelle has done our yearly photos for our son from ages 1 to now 5. (See my past reviews). From somehow capturing a perfect moment from our perpetually moving blur of a son (ages 1-3) to patiently instructing four 70/80 year olds on how to hold their aforementioned 4 year old Tasmanian Devil grandson last year, Michelle is a magician/artist...I always leave the photoshoot stressed from the chaos Hurricane Daniel (our son) leaves in his wake....But every year we come back to look at the proofs and are amazed at Michelle ability to capture "lighting in a bottle" . This year was no different. Fortunately we survived the terrible 2's (...3's....4's....) and thanks to time, maturity, and the opposite of gentle parenting, our little Daniel, though far from perfect, is manageable. But we didn't want to make it too easy for Michelle, so we threw in another variable. After a recent canine cancer scare, and recently learning from Google that all dogs, however loyal and cute, unfortunately have an inescapable life, span, I somehow convinced my beautiful but camera shy wife that this is the year we do a family photo with our dog. Some more backstory, if you read this far, our Yorkie, Libby, loves us but HATES the rest of the world. She spent the entire hour photoshoot in perpetual scowl and Volume 11 non stop bark. One week later as she always does, lighting in a bottle perfection. I looked at the proofs with amazement. Our son, we expected....she's done it every year, but how she made a loud perpetual yapping bark into a impossibly cute smile is above my skill set. But I think her greatest feat is how she lessened the "he must be rich" looks gap between my wife and I. My wife is easy, even me with my amateur Android skills, it's hard for her to take a bad picture. Michelle mastery came with how she elevated me to "he must be funny" looks gap level. So why the tear? We loved one of the pics so much we purchased a large framed canvas print to hang on our living room wall. My 85 year old happened to be in town for his grandsons 5th bday so I asked him for an helping hand hanging the picture. I figured he has these family portrait hanging at my childhood home. My brother and I with our full head of hair and my mom shoulder pads captured the 90's to a tee...but what I always remember is the "proud" look my dad had on his face. A look of accomplishment shouting "look at me world and all that I love and created". Watching my aging dad struggle, listing to my aging dog bark in a locked room to protect my dad's ankles, I was suddenly reminded that time, as much as you want to hit pause, always moves forward. It's a good idea to stop and smell the roses, or in this case, look at the snapshot/memories/moments and take it all in. After my dad handed me the leveler and I put away the hammer, and I looked up....and yeah....I had that "Dad" look
