Her studio is so nice! Just make sure you pay attention to the directions she sends you (read 'em twice!) and you'll find it no problem. The natural light and gorgeous surroundings help you escape that LA go-go-go mentality, so you can relax enough to take some great photos. She offered me some snacks and tea, which was perfect for our morning appointment. And Marisa herself! So great to be around, her energy is welcoming, like you've already met her somewhere. She'll encourage you when you start to play around and is great at capturing genuine images, even in a realm as specific (and sometimes corny, haha) as commercial headshots. She's low pressure but knowledgeable too; she knows how to set up your shots, draw the eye to features you want to show off, all that. She's also big on keeping low costs, 'cause she knows how expensive it is to stay on top of everything you need to act out here, and I really appreciated that. Her retouch costs are also low, with a turnaround time of 5 days tops so picking my images and getting them fixed up was a breeze. Thanks again so much Marisa! I'm serious y'all, she's the real deal. I look forward to shooting with her again :)

All, in all a wonderful experience. I'd strongly recommend Marisa Q.

Long overdue on this review (our wedding was in June haha), but wanted to share about our…read moreexperience with Nico. She is based out of LA but she actually does a ton of weddings and photography shoots up in SF/Bay area. Our wedding was in Carmel Valley and we were able to meet up with her beforehand since she was often in the area. Nico was recommended to me by another photographer and I just loved her photography style for our garden ceremony - it's very airy and bright. Nico herself is also a bright and cheerful person, she was great to work with and despite the craziness of the wedding day, she remained calm and pragmatic throughout the day. We received our processed photos (800+) about 2.5 months later, which I thought was pretty quick. Pictures turned out great! She is great with the candid photos, it was great to see pictures of family and friends having a good time. We printed the photos to send along with our thank you cards and people loved the pics - I wish I had more! She was also very responsive when I needed a photo touched up to print. I haven't done any extra large blown-up prints, but she uploaded 3 different sizes for various use cases. I think the only downside I noticed is that the black & white shots came out slightly grainy. Overall highly recommend!!

Kevin was our primary photographer, and Danilo was our secondary, and both really made the photo sessions a fun experience for everyone. A lot of laughters and memories were shared among the bridesmaids and groomsmen. Kevin and Danilo made it very easy for us by scoping out locations at the venue and providing great guidance on poses. We're also very happy we decided to do golden hour photos. We were looking for soft and neutral tone photos for our wedding, and KLV's editing style was what drew us in to them. The photos came out beautiful. Thank you to the entire KLV team, and we can't recommend them enough for your special day!

From the very beginning, Meg was our point of contact. She was very professional and incredibly quick to respond to any questions we had. Communication was excellent throughout the entire process. Every question we had was answered quickly and clearly, which made planning so much less stressful. Our lead photographer was Kevin. We met at our engagement shoot where he made us feel completely comfortable (we can be quite awkward!). The engagement photos came out beautiful and people loved our save-the-date photos! The wedding day was super hectic but Kevin was super PRO with handling the chaos. Dan was also great as our second photographer -he is always smiley! They were calm, reassuring, and knew exactly what they were doing. The photos are absolutely stunning, beautiful, light and airy. The lighting, composition, and attention to detail truly exceeded our expectations. Looking through our gallery felt like reliving the entire day all over again, from the big moments to the small candid ones we didn't even realize were happening. We cannot recommend them enough!

The lollipops come in a bunch of different flavors but I opted for strawberry and watermelon (my favorites).

Bertha, the owner, was also sweet enough to give me a sample of their dark chocolate bark sprinkled with flower petals.
