Janice has now captured newborn photos of both my daughters, and choosing her both times was a…read moreno-brainer. Two years apart, and both sessions were equally beautiful, fun, and everything I could have hoped for. What sets Janice apart isn't just her incredible eye for a photo - it's how genuinely present and thoughtful she is with my whole family. She was extremely patient and gentle with my newborn, and made my two year old feel completely at ease by leaning right into all the toys she kept eagerly showing off. Watching that connection unfold was honestly one of my favorite parts of the session. She even welcomed our two dogs without missing a beat! Having everything done in the comfort of my own home made it that much more special, personal, and stress-free. We absolutely loved having these milestone moments captured in our own space, surrounded by all the things that make our family ours. If you're looking for someone to document this fleeting, irreplaceable season of life with care, artistry, and a whole lot of heart, look no further than Chasing Hiromi. These are photos I will cherish forever. Thank you, Janice :)

My fiancé and I decided to elope and have a tiny micro wedding in his parents' backyard. But I…read morestill wanted a photographer to capture the occasion so we can preserve memories of the day. I researched photographers on Yelp and, as soon as I saw Janice's work, I knew she was the right person for the job. And she definitely was the best! Janice was super easy to communicate with. On the day of the event, she arrived early, was friendly and cheerful, gave everyone good instructions for each shot, making the whole experience comfortable and fun, even for people like us who are usually awkward in front of the camera. When Janice delivered her work, every photo was sharp, beautiful, natural, and captured our joy and emotions -- truly outstanding. I couldn't be happier with Janice's work, and will enthusiastically recommend her to anyone looking for a great photographer!

This was my second time doing a motherhood mini shoot with Brenda, and I truly can't recommend her…read moreenough! From the moment we walked into the space, I felt instantly at ease. The setup was absolutely beautiful--light-filled, peaceful, and thoughtfully styled with gorgeous floral arrangements. Brenda herself has such a calm, warm presence. She's one of those people who makes you feel comfortable within seconds, which is especially important when you're wrangling a toddler! She was amazing with my son - patient, playful, and so in tune with how to make the experience fun and easy for both of us. There was zero pressure to pose or perform, she provides prompts for where to be but really captures fun candid moments. Brenda is the best!

We have done two motherhood minis and an in-home session when we welcomed a new family member. She is also super thoughtful and knows that snacks are life for motherhood mini sessions! She has snacks at the ready for the kiddos and adults knowing that we all need some sustenance after the chaos of getting everyone dressed and out the door. Beyond her amazing talent, Brenda is a wonderful human being! She has a warm and kind energy which makes it easy for my shy 5 year old and my husband, who absolutely hates getting his picture taken, let loose and have fun. We are OBSESSED and look forward to working Brenda for years to come!

We had Renecia as our photographer for our wedding this past weekend in Atascadero, California. She…read moreand her helper Matthew were so very accommodating and patient as they listened to exactly what we wanted and then also took creative license and came up with some unbelievably beautiful shots. She captured our very special day in a way that I had not envisioned. I have not seen my wife or myself look the way we look in the photos that she took. I am blown away by her professionalism, her care and her ability to be efficient without losing the quality in the moment. We are over the moon by how are pictures came out and that's before editing. I highly recommend Renecia for any and all photography needs. Thank you so much, Renecia Maurene and Mark Schuler

She was patient with our kids and knew how to get them to look at the camera. She took a variety of different groupings of people since there were 11 people. All of our photos turned out beautiful.

Where do I even begin?! Emily and her team have far exceeded my expectations of what a photography…read moreand videography service should be! Emily has gone above and beyond to capture the special moments of my now husband and I. I remember the first moment when I spoke with her, and from that one phone conversation, I knew that she and I would not only share the same vision for photography (how I would like my pictures to be captured and how she captures photographs), but also become friends!! our first phone conversation was about four months prior to the wedding, and I had not done anything to plan for it! I am a busy resident physician, and I also wanted to plan my own wedding, but I didn't know where to start! So on that day, in between me seeing patients, Emily and I had a really brief phone conversation, where she said three simple words, "I got you!" Since that fateful day, she has not given us a dream engagement photo shoot (at the very beach in which my husband, and I fell in love with in Malibu, the El Matador state Beach!) but also our very special moments on our special wedding day! In the middle of me getting pulled in different directions even on that wedding day... the minute she walked in with her team, I felt sense of calm and comfort, knowing that she was there to make sure that even though I couldn't remember everything that was happening that day because it was so busy, I trusted that she would be able to make sure I could remember those details later on in photographs! Aside from her warm heart and truly genuine personality, her work is fantastic! My husband and I have a very particular vision and preference for the type of photographs that we would like, and she fits that and more! If you look through her portfolio on her website or on her Instagram, you can see the brightness that she exuberance in her own personality onto her art. The way she captures the light is so unique, and she truly is the most talented photographer that I've ever come across. Therefore, I follow my gut and knew that she is the best of the best! I cannot wait until she continues to capture more delicate moments of our lives as I hope to continue to get to know her as well personally because she truly is one of the most special people on this universe!

He is always in the right place at the right time, capturing all the moments that you want remembered. He also does it in a way that you almost don't know he's there. He moves effortlessly throughout the wedding environment without ever being in the way or causing a distraction from what is taking place.

And she gives you so many beautifully retouched images... Much better than the photographers who make you pay for each pic after the session.

No knitted outfits or uncomfortable positions for my baby! She did exactly what we wanted. We will treasure these photos forever. 100% worth the investment... your baby is only a newborn once!
