We booked Arjay for our March 2025 wedding and highly recommend him!…read more My wife actually came across Arjay's work before we even had a wedding date set--and he was the very first photographer she bookmarked. His fine art photography style is elegant, timeless, and exactly what we envisioned. As soon as our date was confirmed, she reached out right away. After our initial consultation, we instantly knew he was the right choice for us. His package offerings are very reasonable--ours included an engagement session, a second shooter, and flexible options for coverage. He's also incredibly helpful, communicative, and full of thoughtful advice when it comes to planning your day. During our engagement session, he made us feel totally at ease in front of the camera (which is no small feat!) and turned the shoot into a genuinely fun experience. When we received our gallery, we were blown away by both the quality and the sheer number of beautiful photos. It confirmed that we made the perfect choice in hiring him. On our wedding day, Arjay helped keep everything running smoothly. He followed our timeline, captured all the moments we requested (and so many more), and worked seamlessly with our videographer. He truly went above and beyond, and the moments he captured are ones we'll treasure for a lifetime. On top of his incredible talent, Arjay is just a wonderful, easygoing person who's a joy to be around. We're so grateful for his artistry and professionalism--thank you again, Arjay!

Wow, Yelp really came through again! I was searching for a photographer for our engagement photos…read moreand Google didn't bring Vinh up, but Yelp did, and I'm so grateful. From the very beginning, Vinh was incredibly informative, professional, and genuinely friendly. His communication is exceptional. I don't think he ever took more than 24 hours to respond to my requests. My fiancé and I are not photogenic people. We've never done a photoshoot together and honestly i'm a bit awkward. But Vinh made us feel completely comfortable right away. He guided us through poses, gave helpful suggestions on outfit colors to match our location, and even recommended spots that perfectly matched the vision I had in mind. The actual shoot turned out to be so much fun! We were laughing, relaxed, and really just enjoying ourselves. We did a 2 hour engagement photoshoot and we chose Muir Woods and Mount Tamalpais as our locations. And the best part? The photos were ready in less than five days! The turnaround time was so quick, and the quality of the photos completely exceeded our expectations. We honestly feel so lucky to have found Vinh. He captured everything we hoped for and more. I would be honored to have him as our wedding photographer! Fingers crossed, he'll be available !

This was one of the absolute worst experiences that I've had with a photo shoot. I will describe…read morethe situation from the beginning. I wanted a fun photoshoot with an abundance of flowers. I reached out to her and she assured me that she understood my vision and would be able to deliver. I paid (and even tipped, regrettably) prior to the shoot, per her policy. During our initial conversation, I stated that I wanted a lot of flowers and I would buy them from a local flower shop. Kyra insisted that I would not need to purchase flowers because the photoshoot was after Mother's day and a wedding and she would be able to get them for free. I took her word for it and did not make arrangements. I tried calling her on several occasions leading up to the photoshoot but she did not answer my calls. I began to get worried, but I figured it was because she was busy. The night before the photo shoot, she told me she could not secure any flowers....the night before the photoshoot. When I suggested changing the date of the shoot to allow me to make alternative arrangements, she declined. I did not want to make a fuss, so I scrambled and found a place where I could buy several bouquets. So, on the day of the shoot, she began taping the flowers that I bought to the wall. She said that we only needed to tape a few because she would photoshop the tape out and cover the wall with the flowers via photoshop. I waited over three weeks for the photos. When I inquired about when I would receive them, she stated that she was sick and had to send them to a company to be edited. About two days later, I received the photos. Wow. They were completely unedited - the flowers did not cover the entire wall, the tape was not edited out of the photos from the flowers, and my actual face/appearance had no retouching. I was so confused. I revisited the contract and it explicitly stated "40 Fully Retouched Images." None were retouched. She tried to cover herself by lying in an email, stating that she only does "small retouches"/ contrary to the contract. So, she offered a few insufficient options to make an attempt to rectify the situation - she said I can 1. pay more money for each image to be edited (even though the contract states fully retouched images) 2. Use her standard retouching? 3. a 50% refund with no images. I even tried to make it easier on her and offered to obtain the raw images and I would pay an actual professional to edit them. She stated that she does not allow her images to be edited by others, which is contrary to the fact that she sent my photos to be edited by another professional, who did not understand the assignment. So, after all of that - I had to wait yet another 2 weeks for subpar images. To add salt to the wound, she even had the nerve to use MY image on her email marketing campaign. I highly recommend looking elsewhere - because you will not receive images according to your vision, there will be a lack of communication, and you will wait 3+ weeks for unedited images.
