It is with great pleasure that I am writing this review for Loving Lens photography and…read morevideography. Getting beautiful photos and videos from my wedding was one of the most important parts of our special day. My husband and I were not disappointed, they delivered. With so many options out there, I was nervous with finding the right fit for my weddings vibe. With online research I was overwhelmed because while searching online almost every company looked amazing. My husband got me and a few of my bridesmaids tickets to a local bridal bizarre to meet with vendors. I quickly was drawn to the work and photos Anna and Loving Lens presented at the Bridal bizarre. Anna was friendly kind and didn't try to sell me on her work. Following up I set up a call with her. In preparation for the day, I had 3 meetings with her and her husband to iron out all of the details and get the contract wrote up. I read some of the negative reviews they previously had but the connection and vibes were too great to ignore. Loving lens was very upfront and honest about timelines, expectations for any photos or videos from the very beginning. I was very happy with the service they provided at the wedding and during the day off. A SINGLE WEEK AFTER MY WEDDING not only did I get preview photos but I also received all of the edited photos I was promised!! I also received the short highlight teaser video that was in my contract 8 days after my wedding!! I'm so impressed with their work and turn around times! I'm so happy I trusted my gut feeling to hire this company. I recommend you set up meetings with Loving Lens to get to know them, work through any pre-wedding day details, and listen to any of there recommendations on the day off. (They shared a few of there thoughts on the photos and poses during the day of and I'm so grateful I listened) I have no doubt they will continue to provide the best services for many more weddings to come, and I highly recommend Loving Lens.

Jessica is absolutely amazing! She took pictures for our maternity session as well as our newborn…read moreson. A year later, she took our family's pictures for our son's one year birthday (cake smash) as well as for the holiday cards. She has a studio at her home with plenty of snacks while you do your sessions. It's also heated for those chillier winter months. The props she has are amazing and add a lovely style to her photos. She has a natural talent for finding perfect poses and the experience to get great angles. She also does locations other than her studio for photo shoots. For our maternity pictures we were at the beach and for our family pics we went to a hiking trail. She's able to taylor yo meet your needs. Her turnover to get pictures back to you is always quicker than she stated which is so lovely (especially when you want to get out holiday cards!) I highly recommend Jessica for her stellar services!

We were quite nervous, as our son isn't exactly always cooperative, but Jessica wasn't frazzled in the least, and just totally put our minds at ease. Even though it seemed like our son cried for most of the shoot (toddlers!), Jessica promised she got tons of great shots of him smiling, and she DID! We were so pleasantly surprised when we saw the photos, ha! Jessica was fantastic to work with from the very beginning, offering lots of help with wardrobe choices, location choices, etc. We couldn't be happier with the outcome of our photoshoot and can't wait to hire Jessica again for more photos :) Thank you, Jessica!!!!

Her warm and mellow personality conveys to her business nicely. She is a dream to work with from scheduling to production. Our family shoot was at the Del Mar beach--the sun was playing hard to get with us that afternoon and it took a lot longer to get enough photos but there was never a rushed moment. I would recommend you listen to her suggestions to get the results you are looking for. We now have a mobile app with photos to share instantly and a CD with high res photos to use to get prints to frame for our home and to give as Christmas gifts to family. Not to mention our Christmas card photo is ready. Amen.

Her use of light is unparalleled as is her use of nature as the background. Her photographs are majestic, expansive, soft, golden, magical and real. She captures great candids. We have 2 kids and that is always hard but she had several tricks up her sleeve to get the kids to look and she got some amazing shots of the whole family. I just want to frame all the photos she took and cover my house wall to wall =) She's also patient, easy-going and just a overall pleasure to work with. I never share photos of my family on yelp. But I'll break my own rule so you can see how amazing she is.

I was in charge of organizing a multigenerational family session with some hard people to please. I was drawn to her pictures, the lighting and the way she captured families. Everyone in our group agreed that Tristan was amazing. Tristan went above and beyond with her communication through the entire planning process, offering to accommodate the unfortunate weather circumstances during Christmas weekend. She showed up with a very warm demeanor and was professional and kind throughout the entire ordeal. She was even able to cheer up the kids who became fussy during the session. Not only was the actual photo session fun and organized, the final product exceeded our expectations. I cannot say enough good things about Tristan, I highly recommend her and look forward to using her in the future.

To be honest I didn't really care that much about a professional picture but after seeing Michele's work I want to take a new headshot monthly! She came to our office, found a nice background outside, and took probably about 8 pictures of each of us, sent us proofs the same day and retouched digital images of the ones we selected within 24 hours! Her prices are very reasonable, and her work is great! Gone are the lingering zits, crow's feet, and your smiles are dazzling on a wrinkle-free face...and it's all very natural looking. We were all amazed and joked that they looked so good we should use these pictures for Match profiles. ;) I checked out her website and portfolio and was pleased to find that she does weddings, family and just other photos too. I plan to call her for fun photos next time! Michele is very nice, a perfectionist (i.e. she'll make sure you don't have a hair loose before she takes the picture), and has incredible turnaround time. Call her. You'll be happy you did.

The photos are fantastic and the entire experience was wonderful. Can't wait to go back next year for another round with the entire family next time!
