WOW!!!! Cindy is one…read moreof the most naturally gifted photographers I have ever worked with. She has a true talent for discovering and capturing the true beauty and essence of an individual. I was completely blown away by her skills and the final results of my photoshoot. I was nervous initially booking the shoot since I've always felt extremely awkward in front of a camera. I tend to freeze up and have always been told to "relax my face" a million times. Whenever someone is about to take a picture, I suddenly realize I have arms and hands and don't know what to do with them! Enter Cindy. Her sweet, warm, friendly energy put me immediately at ease. She gave me such helpful, specific tips on how to position my body, where to look, and what to think about so I looked completely relaxed, natural, and cute in the photos! (not meaning to be narcissistic as I have plenty of extremely not cute photos that have been taken of me in the past - thank you Cindy for somehow magically bringing out my beauty through your lens!!!) Cindy was extremely creative and has a great eye for locations and lighting. We shot in the afternoon in different places around her neighborhood which was clean, safe, elegant, and lovely. Our shoot was about 2 hours long with 2 outfit changes - I brought a few different sets of clothing and Cindy helped me to pick out a couple to wear which I was extremely happy with. I am beyond thrilled with the final results, which were lightly and expertly retouched that made me look real and not overly processed or fake at all. I would highly, HIGHLY recommend Cindy for anyone interested in getting head shots, portraits, lifestyle shots, or even engagement shoots done. Right now she has an amazing special going on and I would definitely take advantage of that ASAP as long as she's still offering it! Thank you again, Cindy. I am grateful for your talent and for sharing your inherent gift and ability to effortlessly capture that "it" factor in everyone you work with. Five stars all the way!!

I had specific edits for her... my hair had flyaways, my clothing had wrinkles, and basic beauty stuff. She executed every request I had. I sent her multiple photos back and forth about three times and she always got the edited photos back to me within 24 hours! What a pro!!! As a professional makeup artist (and actor) I have to say her beauty photoshop editing is OUTSTANDING! Her work could be in any magazine or movie poster. I will definitely recomend her to abosolutley every single person for whom I do headshot makeup and hair. And her prices are great for working actors!

Our photos are absolutely stunning and deeply meaningful to our family. Melanie captured both the natural beauty of the garden and the joy of our time together.

Alyssa's photographs captured the essence of each moment with stunning beauty. Alyssa has an incredible eye for detail and a talent for capturing moments as they naturally unfold. Her photography brought out the beauty in every aspect of our wedding, from the small, intimate interactions to the broader, more scenic shots. Her ability to use natural light and thoughtful composition resulted in images that were not only visually stunning but also deeply meaningful. She also did a great job directing all the family and friends so that everyone looked natural and we were on track with the timeline. Overall, we would definitely recommend Alyssa and her team to capture your big day!

We had two weddings Alyssa shot for our April 2023 wedding weekend and could not be happier with…read morethe results! Our Friday church wedding was at St. Brendan Church of Los Angeles and our Saturday wedding and reception was located at The Ebell of Los Angeles in Los Angeles, CA. We also had one engagement session with her about 3 months prior to our wedding weekend. We are so incredibly grateful and so happy with Alyssa's direction and creativity. Alyssa was an absolute joy to work with. She's so professional, efficient, talented, smart, and she knows how to given clear directions on posing which was much needed for us. She's very responsive, detail oriented, and has such a friendly personality which made her so fun to work with! I always felt empowered to step into and own my confidence when I was being guided by Alyssa's posing - this is a huge plus if you're not yet confident in front of the camera. The encouragement she displayed really helped me own it! Not to mention my husband and I both felt so calm on the day of our Friday church wedding and Saturday wedding & reception once we started our days with her. Engagement shoot (1.5 hrs): Alyssa knew exactly how we wanted our vision to be - we actually had done 2 engagement shoots with two different photographers prior to Alyssa and had little success with our previous wedding photographer. Alyssa understood we were gravitating to a more clean and classic style of photography. We were so happy with the results from our engagement shoot that we ended up using the photos for our details card in our invitation suite, our photo guestbook, and on a slideshow at our Saturday wedding! Friday Church Wedding Day (3 hrs): We had a church ceremony the day prior to our Saturday Ebell of Los Angeles wedding. Alyssa was so flexible in picking up these extra hours for us even though I had little timeline information for her. On the actual day of she was so helpful in helping calm any nerves I had and even tried helping my mom with her makeup. She's a jack of all trades! She was quick to help me with my veil and styling (jewelry and posing) as well. I'm so excited to see how the results turn out! At the church wedding itself Alyssa was very quick and kept to the schedule and timeline I gave her. We only had 45 min for our portraits, family, sponsor, and group photos. Alyssa gave clear direction to all of us and I know my family really enjoyed working with her. Saturday Ebell Wedding Day (9 hrs): We were so happy to see so many great sneak peeks the Tuesday after our Saturday wedding. Alyssa captured photos my husband and I will cherish for the rest of our lives. The photos are clean and filled with emotion and one of them is so creative (it's a photo of my husband spinning me in B&W). On the day of Alyssa was excellent in working with our families and our bridesmaids and groomsmen. She was so helpful all around (helping fix my dress and veil so it looks good for the shots) and she was also great working with our dog, Arwen. I am so impressed with our sneak peeks and I can't wait to use them for our Thank You cards and I already used them for Instagram and TikTok content. Alyssa helped get us back on schedule and made sure we were being effective with time and also timed the sunset photos for the best shots. We trust Alyssa so much and have so much faith in her artistic craft. We could not be happier with the great service Alyssa provides and we highly recommend her if you're in search for a wedding photographer.

Uhhhhhhmazinggg people!

We worked with them for our engagement photoshoot in Joshua tree and also our wedding and wow they really captured moments that still take me take to the feeling and what was happening around me at the time. They weren't awkward even though my husband and I were so awkward at our engagement shoot. They gave good directions on how we would interact with each other without giving us step by step instructions. Their directions allowed us to act natural but also be conscious that we were taking photos but not give directions where our gestures or body language would feel awkward or unnatural and awkward. They were good directors pretty much. On the day of our wedding I completely forgot they were even there taking photos because they just let us be us and captured the moments for us. I definitely think they're not only skilled and talented but really see their photos as art where they can express not just themselves but the people being photographed. Check out their work on Instagram!

We thought that we'd be uncomfortable or awkward in front of a camera but Tae absolutely made the shoot so natural and fun. It was hard to imagine that we'd have a better experience than we already did. But fast forward to our wedding day and Kary and Karla just did the most amazing job and brought an energy and purpose that really made our day come together and flow perfectly. Both ladies hustled the entire day, directing us and coming up with unique shots all the while keeping us on schedule. Karla would be running around checking on us, grabbing missing props like my bouquet while Kary would be shooting us all in sync with our videographer so that no shot was missed (and the Karla would also start snapping pictures). Karla and Kary worked super hard in capturing candid moments as we went around socializing with guests and dancing in the wedding but they had us hit every epic posed shot that is possible. We didn't waste a single second of our wedding day. We just got a sneak peek of our photos and my husband and I were absolutely floored by the final results (and we're hard to please). We can't wait to see the rest of our photos but hands down, The Times We Have is one of the best decisions of our entire wedding experience. The whole team makes your wedding day (and planning process leading up to it) easier, more fun and incredibly special. Thank you, thank you, thank you Tae, Kary and Karla!

They coached me through the whole process and got some genuine smiles out of me I immediately felt like I was hanging out with good friends, though they were incredibly professional too. The photoshoot flowed effortlessly and I felt totally at ease with these two (which, I have to say is SUPER important as a woman in Los Angeles!). The photos - wow! Stunning. The shots, the variety, the edits, everything came out incredible. They're just the best, hands down. My agency loves them and it's helped to expand my portfolio, I've gotten gigs with them and couldn't be more happy! I'll be returning for any future shoots, these guys are golden! They also have a covid safety protocol too, which made me feel safe. Basically, they offer the best quality, the best vibes, and the best price! They offer packages and cool specials for content creators and actors, I love it. They really live up to their name! You can't beat this, especially in LA!! I'll be a loyal customer forever!

From start to finish, Daria was an absolute professional--warm, responsive, and incredibly easy to work with. She arrived right on time, was fully prepared (even bringing the perfect lighting setup for the indoor evening portion of the event), and was wonderfully attentive to all of my instructions and preferences. Her rates were also very reasonable, especially given the high quality of her work. Daria delivered the photos very quickly, and to my delight, the images hardly needed any retouching at all. Aside from a bit of cropping to match my personal style, the photos were beautiful straight out of the camera--crisp, vibrant, and full of emotion. She truly captured the spirit and significance of the evening. I wholeheartedly recommend Daria for any special occasion or professional event. Her talent, preparedness, and professionalism made an already meaningful evening even more memorable. Highly, highly recommended!
