I met Hannah through the highly exclusive Chief network of executive women. Chief had built a $1B…read morebusiness on a brand that lived through its members, but how they brought that vision to life was the photography that Hannah captured. As I found myself using her photos for decks and corporate editorial, I was reminded the power of visual storytelling in stills. We live in a world where short form and video show engagement metrics - which isn't incorrect, but that might tempt us to forget the original art of still photography to capture a moment, and motion or a sensation that moves people. For me, I hired Hannah for both event and product photography. Since then, I've sold out my events and my first batch of products. This does not happen without Hannah's genius and her talent for visual storytelling that moves people without video-in-motion; though I suspect that we might work together on that next Thank you, Hannah! I can't wait to do more with you as we continue to build!

He has a gift for capturing moments, expressions, and emotions. That's not a skill you can learn. Mik's unmatched talent is backed up by flawless technique. His expert use of light, deep understanding of what appeals to the human eye, and ability to move quickly in fluid situations with high-profile subjects make him an exceptional Los Angeles events photographer. He'll follow the action to get the best shot. Spontaneous helicopter ride for extra aerial angles? He's in. Mik also brings top-notch professionalism to his craft. He always shows up early. He consistently over-delivers. He shares all shots in easy-to-browse online galleries. He doesn't make promises he can't keep. He circles back to ensure clients are happy. He responds promptly to ever inquiry. Most importantly, he'll turn down jobs that aren't a good fit. There's only one thing to warn prospective clients about: Mik's schedule books up fast because he's in high demand. Google, Hermes, Chanel, Bulgari, etc. all use him. Reach out early if you have an event - especially if you also want Mik's videography services.

I needed an updated headshot for work (the blurry 5+ year old one from my phone wasn't cutting it)…read moreand decided to book Mik after seeing his reviews online and reviewing his portfolio via his website, which I was very impressed by. His work is quite varied (weddings, event photography, corporate stuff, headshots, parties, etc.) but it was all done really well. His style is very crisp and clean with a timeless quality -- I think most of us want photos we can look back on for years to come that don't feel "dated." As someone who hates not only tardiness, but also having their picture taken, it was awesome Mik showed up a few minutes early and was also very personable. For once in my life, I didn't feel awkward having my picture taken. Which totally translated in the photos -- they look great! Turnaround time was quick and efficient, price beyond fair. He sent me so many options, I might even throw a few up on my dating profile -- hah! (why not I look great)

We were looking for a photographer for specifically group pictures but I'm really happy Owen went beyond my original request to take more pictures of our happy day!

Our pictures were delivered quickly, with an additional skin retouching service for that extra glow. I would definitely add him to my event team again if I had something in the area. Thanks Owen!!

Everything went smoothly and seamlessly from my first communication with him to the actual event. I contacted him about four weeks prior to the event, and he was very responsive and easy to talk to. I explained what I wanted and how I envisioned the day would flow, and he was receptive, offering helpful suggestions. Since my schedule was hectic around the holidays, all communication was done via email, and I didn't speak with him personally before the event. I trusted my instincts, booked him - finding the contract and payment process very easy - and got in touch with him a few days prior to remind him. He showed up on time, worked well with our family and guests, and took nice photos. The gallery was delivered a few days after the party, sooner than expected, and we were happy with the results. Having him was truly the easiest decision I made for my mom's celebration, and I'm looking forward to future events where I can use his services again. Thanks again, Nick!

He photographed both our…read morepre-wedding couple's shoot at Pasadena City Hall and our wedding ceremony and reception, and we're so happy with the photos. From the beginning, Emil was professional, responsive, and incredibly easy to work with. Neither of us is particularly used to being in front of the camera, but he made the experience comfortable and natural. On our wedding day, he did a wonderful job capturing not only the important moments, but also so many candid shots of our family and friends genuinely enjoying themselves. Looking through the finished gallery and seeing how happy everyone looked brought back so many great memories from the day. We also really appreciated how accommodating Emil was with the specific photos and ideas we wanted to capture, while still using his own experience and creativity throughout the day. We ended up with so many beautiful photos that we'll be able to look back on for years to come. We're very grateful to Emil for helping us document such an important time in our lives and would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a photographer for their wedding or special event. Thank you again, Emil!

Emil saved the day! Honestly in every way. He first agreed to book me one day prior [super lucky]…read moremy brother had a quick wedding because he had little time to come home from deployment. The wedding was very intimate and we didn't have the time to plan ahead. Emil literally made booking with him so easy. The day we meet for the wedding everyone was really nervous since it was the first of our family to get married. He broke the ice and made everyone start enjoying and having fun. He was very helpful on how to pose and gave us great tips and guidance. Even went out of his ways to help us find a great location from the chapel to have different views of backgrounds. Everyone was extremely happy already with his work and then pictures came so fast and every single one was amazing. So yes I highly recomend him, found loyal clients with us thanks Emily. Can't really post any face pictures out of respect for my brother but will post some of the others he took time in detail.

I'm so disappointed in my results, it's like she rushed and didn't try to portray those candid moments I thought she would. The lighting is awful, tons of important photos of eyes closed without a second shot?! Shots with sun glare where you can not see anyone's faces. She even made a fuss about photo ops I requested and after even giving her a LIST of requested photos, she didn't get them! She really did not do a great job like I had hoped and it makes me sick to think I didn't get beautiful photos on my once in a lifetime day. She will NEVER get a recommendation from me.

Chasing Pleasures is the place to go to make that happen, but I had no idea just how much they'd come through for us. Imagine this: you're trying to remember every last detail - outfits, snacks, wipes, you name it - while gathering up your kids, yourself, and your husband, all dressed and ready to get out the door. After all that, we barely made it to the studio on time, and of course, it wasn't until we walked in that I realized I'd forgotten to check if my all-black shirt was free of lint. That's when Andy, without skipping a beat, pulled out a lint roller and saved my day. It was such a small thing, but in that moment, it meant everything. Chasing Pleasures is a family company, and they get it - they know what families need before we even realize we need it. Thanks to them, what felt like a monumental task turned out to be a breeze. Thank you, Chasing Pleasures, for making something that seemed so hard feel so simple.

I absolutely love them and will continue to come to them for our future events!! From the moment we met with them, they immediately spoke to us like we were already their friends. They knew what we wanted and it was very easy to understand the vision they had when explained to us! I didn't hire a wedding coordinator because.. inflation and budgets lolll but at the end of the day, Sahag made me feel comfortable enough to call him and ask him for his advice on how long each part of the day would take in regards to creating an itinerary and making sure we had enough time for everything. I must have called Sahag at least 50x!! Poor guy lol! But he never seemed annoyed, never gave me an ounce of negative energy, he was always willing to help, and never let one call go to voicemail! WOW!! During both our engagement and wedding shoots, I was getting a little cranky with the pains from my heels (I hate heels and I hate the man who invented heels even more!) and they knew exactly how to handle the situation and always made sure I kept a smile on my face! Come to find out, they had also worked on my SIL's christening and her parents wedding! So it's easy to say that they're pretty much family at this point! Lolll These guys work hard to make sure you have the greatest day of your life and they do it so smoothly and make it look so easy!! We weren't even speaking to photographers we hired, we were speaking with friends! I can't emphasize that enough!! We will continue to recommend them to all of our friends and family members! Sahag and Shahe and the videographers (I wish I had their names, I'm so sorry!) thank you for allowing us to have the SMOOTHEST wedding day possible while also being apart of our celebrations! We are forever grateful to you guys and we can't wait to work with you again on our future events!
