This beautiful gal has the most amazing gift to make people look better without even trying, haha…read more I met Ev at a local healer's in Long Beach, CA, she appeared so friendly and her pictures were artsy which I wanted for my website. I had been worried about how my pictures would come out as I am not the best model for pictures. We coordinated a date and time (deposit required), she drove to my choice of location, on top of a hill, what a trooper! Anything to get that shot! She was friendly, gave great direction and isn't pushy with her ideas. She took many shots and we were able to get some amazing pics, almost as of God himself wanted to be in the picture. She was able to capture my healing technique and people can now feel how peaceful my services make you feel. I hired her another time after this for bio pics, they were just as awesome. In addition, two other colleagues have hired her for their own bio pictures, very cool!!!! Hire her, she makes you feel beautiful and give you a tummy tuck if needed, haha.

We cannot sing enough praise for Nick and Sarah at Simile photography. From the outset, they were…read morewonderfully professional and responsive. They walked us through the process, and guided us through all the different permutations of photographic scenarios. They were extremely well organized and everything went very smoothly. Their positive energy was an added bonus. They had wonderful ideas and suggestions, while also diving into our goals and priorities. We felt heard, while still benefiting from their expertise, experience and creativity. On the day of the wedding they divided and conquered. It was so wonderful having two photographers, as that allowed us to get amazing photographs of each of us getting ready for the day. While ever present, it didn't feel like we were constantly being watched, and so we were able to relax (as much as possible!). Now we have the pleasure of trying to decide which of the many frameable photographs will adorn our walls. With respect to cost, which we know is always a factor, we found them extremely reasonable. And for the quality of so many amazing photographs, frankly a bargain! We would fully and wholeheartedly recommend Simile photography to friends and family. Our hope is to one day bring them back for an anniversary celebration in the future.

Sarah and Nick are a photography dream team! We were big fans of them before we hired them for the…read morewedding because they'd done some great work doing professional promo photos for my husband's work. We couldn't have chosen a better team to then capture our wedding. Their photography is impeccable - incredible eye for good shots, and when the finished product comes to you, fabulous editing. As a wedding team, they are unobtrusive (didn't even know they were there most of the time), and at the same time, totally on it -- making sure we got every permutation of wedding party photos, putting aside time to do gorgeous golden hour pics, etc. They are very experienced in weddings and made excellent suggestions that made our photos better, such as prepping us on how to subtly pose the rings while at the alter, and making sure our speed photos were dynamic and well composited (by having the guests come to us). We received our photos about two months after the wedding date and couldn't be happier at the array of beautiful shots they got of us, both candid and posed. This was our fairytale wedding and now we have the perfect images to remember it by.

In addition to running a professional photography studio, the owners Siya and Yogi host photography…read moreworkshops. This review covers my experience taking their studio photography workshop. I'm a hobbyist photographer - I'm really just trying to learn how to take better pictures of my kids. I've wanted to learn how to use strobe lights for a long time, but studio lighting always seemed too complicated. After taking the workshop, I now know that the technical issues are actually not that complicated. Once you've learned the technical aspects, you'll have a strong foundation for learning the "art" of studio photography. Siya & Yogi and very knowledgeable and fun instructors - I had a great time. I think the key was learning in a small group setting. I've attended workshops before, but it's hard to learn when there are too many attendees with different levels of skill and interests. Siya & Yogi were able to tailor the workshop to cover very specific topics that I needed to learn. I can easily recommend their workshops to anyone - even for beginners with no experience with studios. BTW - after the workshop, I learned that they rent the studio for $40/hour, which gives you full access to all of their equipment. I plan to do a rental session sometime take pictures of my kids - I'm no pro, but it will be a fun, cheap way to practice what I have learned.

"Modern . Artistic . Beautiful" - Like Adam said, this is exactly what you get…read more I hired Adam to be my wedding photographer. I drove 3 hrs (one-way) to meet this talented photographer from San Diego. It was all worth it. Where to start. I have so many good things to say about this guy. He was on time, warm, polite, listened to what I needed, answered my questions, quick email response, and last but not least, he takes awesome pictures. What impressed me the most was: on the day of my wedding, Adam arrived at a location 2-3 hours advance to see if there were any cool places to take pictures with. He is in L.A. and we are in San Diego, so he came here early to "study and research" the location. There was a train station near a hotel we stayed, which I didn't even know that existed, and he took us there for photo-shoot. The pics Adam took were just magical, and I was so grateful that he spent extra time to find this cool spot. He also found a blue mural on the wall of the hotel. I thought "wait a minute. This mural is too blue!!" But Adam knows how to make "ordinary" to "extra ordinary." My portrait pics with blue mural which I posted here are actually my fav pic. But I am telling you. If you look at the mural by itself, it is not picturesque at all!! My husband and I are extremetely satisfied with his work. I highly recommend Adam to be your wedding photographer.

Don't trust this guy. He carries himself like a good Christian but he's just a greedy businessman…read more He met with us and verbally agreed to photograph our wedding. We signed the contract and mailed him a check for the deposit. About a month and a half before the wedding, he canceled on us. He claimed that he had another wedding to shoot the same day as our wedding, and he just forgot. How does a wedding photographer not realize that he has two weddings booked for the same day? Our wedding photography package was pretty small. My guess is that he got an offer to do a bigger and more expensive wedding. Don't trust this guy.

Scott Robert Lim Photography Scott is as good as it gets!…read moreHe is a master photographer of light and posing. He is gifted, incredibly talented, gives his all (heart and soul) to his clients. He is an amazing teacher who has brought professional photography to another level (higher). I DO NOT agree with Ricky B. at all. I have had the privilege to interact with Scott on many occasions and he has ALWAYS been extremely kind, gracious, helpful and accommodating. He GIVES to a fault. Gives so much of himself and his knowledge that he has attained over the last decade as a professional photographer. I have not seen any side of greed, but exactly the opposite. He does everything he can, over and above for his clients and beyond fairness to the photography community. If you are considering Scott Robert Lim as your photographer for your wedding or for a portrait session or to create a original piece of art or even as your mentor to learn more about photography be assured you are making the right choice!
