As a wedding coordinator, I'm always a little skeptical when working with new vendors because you never know what to expect in terms of professionalism, communication, and work ethic. Brandon exceeded every expectation. He was incredibly easy to work with, provided great direction during photos, and helped create a fun, relaxed atmosphere throughout the day. His sense of humor and lighthearted personality made the experience enjoyable for both the couple and the vendor team. From what I've seen on social media, his work is absolutely stunning, and I can't wait to see the full gallery from our event. I would confidently recommend Brandon to my clients and look forward to the opportunity to work with him again in the future.

I cannot thank and praise Wendy at Lotus Bloom enough. She accommodated my family of 17 and 2 dogs…read more My mom is disabled so I looked to Wendy for location suggestions and she found and suggested a great spot that met all our criteria (proximity to my parent's house, flat terrain for wheelchair access, close and easy parking, not busy, nice greenery, options for multiple backgrounds). Wendy gave simple and specific instructions we very much needed to get the most/best shots at each spot. I'm also so grateful for her editing skills that looked flawless. One of my family members recently had oral surgery and she even edited that to look more natural (with our permission, of course). My family loved the pictures and we were so happy with the overall experience. Look no further. Go with Wendy if you're looking for a pro in the field, offers simple and clear instructions on how to pose, thoughtful, maximizes your time during the shoot, and is actually affordable. P.S. Wendy also offers themed studio shoots during major holidays (e.g. Christmas themed with a real santa). I'll be going to her again for this at the end of the year; so excited!

I cannot say enough good things about Brendan. He did my professional head shots for work/website…read more I wanted something unique and not just your normal "background". I explained to Brendan I wanted more of a relaxed and nature setting. We ended up at Balboa Park and it was perfect. We did a few shots near a graffiti art bridge and then he took me to more of a floral background. Brendan was so nice to work with and very creative. I have to say he made me feel very comfortable and directed me exactly what I needed to do. When the shoot was done he showed me a few shots and I loved them. By the time I left and got home he had already uploaded the proofs and I was able to choose what I wanted right away. Lastly when I posted the photos I got so many compliments and even had coworker say I should have used him. In short I highly recommend using Brendan!
