    at Rancho Palos Verdes
    Paul L.

    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 highly recommend by the church I had my ceremony and I'm so glad I took their advice. Kwon was absolutely professional, kind and went above and beyond! My party commented how kind he was and he definitely is. Thank you Kwon for the amazing pictures you took of me and my husband, you deserve every positive review here.

    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!

    We can't say enough great things about KWON!! We just got our photos back and we are obsessed. We definitely got more photos back than we hoped for and loved every single one. He was able to capture all the details we wanted! His edits were so light, airy and romantic. Kwon was very professional and arrived on time on wedding day. He was great at directing us and telling us how to pose. We can tell he is a perfectionist and wants to get every detail right. We was so nice and friendly! He kept us on schedule and the day went by so smoothly. Overall we had a great experience with Kwon and would definitely recommend. He exceeded all of our expectations!! XOXO

    You know a photographer seriously wants to capture the best pictures of your baby if they want you…read moreto come back when baby is fed, well slept, and happy. For some reason things just didn't align well with my baby's naps and feedings that day so it was hard to manage a tired baby but they managed to get real good photos of my baby and the family. My baby didn't really smile much yet but they were still able to get smiling pictures of her too. Very professional and works so hard to get the best pictures. I was truly grateful for this studio and loved my experience. Also the picture quality was amazing!! The backgrounds were cute and the clothes were so adorable too!! The price point is reasonable and I'd say cheaper than some others for a better quality. I think the turn around time to receive the photos were faster than we expected too. Truly appreciate working with this photographer. He really seems to love what he does and we are blessed with these amazing photos!!! Couple things to note/tips: 1. Go when your baby can smile. Yes after their neck strength gets way better too. My baby still can't really smile yet and she's 4 months old. I really wanted to push having 100 day photos when she was 3.5 months old so neck strength and expressions aren't expected. 1a. Also go when your baby is well fed, pooped, rested, good condition, etc. makes a world of difference. 2. They give you a looooot of photos to choose from. Be prepared to be pleasantly overwhelmed with photos. If you get decision fatigue then ask your spouse to help. Cause I loved getting the full gamut of photos. 3. They have a wardrobe but if you want your baby to wear something specific, bring it! Their wardrobe is pretty cute tho and fits with their backgrounds. 4. They have set backgrounds to choose from in their studio. The backgrounds are really cute but if you're looking for something specific, unique, tailored to you, the studio setting might not be for you. But tbh all 100 day, dohl, event photos basically look the same...so I would think it's odd to expect something different. I've seen tons of beach engagement pics. Tons of dohl pics with the same backgrounds and balloons. So why complain about a studio pic with similar styles and backgrounds or lack of variety? You're already the unique and different baby/family. So there's that. 5. Bring a toy or something that can get your baby's attention. I realized belatedly my baby likes to stare at herself in the mirror. She also likes her little fox doll. If your baby has a preference for a toy, perhaps being prepared like that will help with the experience! 6. Match your clothes with your family and partner beforehand. Clothes, accessories and shoes too so they look cohesive in the photos! Belatedly realized my husband's shoes didn't match any of our family's and my son's also seemed a little too bright. Oh well. Overall I loved the photos! Thank you again for the awesome and kind experience!!!

The beach was more packed than we had expected, but Molly knew exactly the right spots on the beach to make our shoot productive and worthwhile. Finally, the delivery of our photos was everything we could have asked for and more. We were expecting a 3-4 week turnaround time, but Molly went out of her way to edit and publish our photos within 2 days so that we could receive our gallery before our pup's birthday. Overall, I can't recommend Molly enough! If you are in the Orange County area looking for a photographer for family / milestone photoshoots, Goldensun will not disappoint!

The studio itself is very spacious, with a wide variety of beautiful scene setups and props. They also have an amazing selection of high-quality baby dresses and accessories, which made styling effortless and elevated the final photos even more.
