We had the pleasure of hiring Dino for our city hall marriage and also our wedding reception photos. We met Dino at a wedding fair and instantly connected with him. He did not try to pressure us and sell his services at all which was what we experienced at a lot of other vendors there. Dino was very open, honest and easy to talk to regarding all this, which was one thing we liked about him. Planning a wedding could be very stressful and Dino for sure made it one less thing to worry about. Now onto the photography, Dino took some amazing and very creative photos for us. He was really easy to work with, he gave perfect direction on how to pose and where to look for the best shot. His attention to detail was very impressive as well, he would identify loose hair in the way, necklace needs to be adjusted, shirts need to be tucked, tie needs to be straighten, and many more. We also really like how punctual he was and how fast he would respond if we had any questions. We were also really impressed with the quick turnaround in which we received our photos. Overall OSA fotography is a 5/5 and would definitely hire Dino and his team again in the future. read more

We couldn't have found a better photographer for our wedding! Not only was Dino our photographer but we might as well hired him as our event coordinator as well!! Our guest told us that he was very friendly and greeted everyone, helped the bridal party with their boutonnières, gave wonderful direction and suggestions and so much more. He captured the most perfect moments. I hate taking pictures but Dino made me feel absolutely comfortable that I forgot we were taking pictures. We will definitely book Dino again for future photographs.Thank you OSA Fotography- because of you we will have the most gorgeous photos that will last a lifetime! read more

OSA Fotography receives five stars from these two newlyweds!!! We hired Dino and his business to photograph our wedding last month on the 14th. We have received our photo gallery and couldn't be more pleased with the results from all of his amazing work. Dino and his assistant were so fun to have with us at our wedding, it was as if they were not just our photographer's, but our friends! Recommending OSA Fotography whole heartedly. read more

We met Christian randomly as he was taking pictures in the Niles area. My husband asked him about his camera equipment and he offered to take pics of him + us. Emailed them to the Huz and they were legit! We had a big event coming up, and I had this idea to have portraits taken of our created family. We are not traditional at all, never have been. As orphans, my husband + I don't have blood relatives around us so we made our own family with friends! I wanted to solidify/commemorate/celebrate that, and thought of Christian right away. The more we got to talking with him, I could tell he understood our vision and what we wanted to capture. But most importantly, the seriousness and sacredness of what this meant for our family. He kept in contact with us right through the date...even the week before, the day before. And when the weather made us postpone, he assured us everything was still gonna go down smoothly. We were nervous because of our own imperfections + insecurities, but Christian helped us feel secure. Shoot Day came. We couldn't have been MORE satisfied with our experience. He went above + beyond all expectations and impressed us massively. He VIBED with everyone!! From my ill adoptive mom to our little puppy! Our brothers loved him, our kids adored him...even my introverted sister came out her shell for him! We kept talking about how much fun we had for days and weeks after. Even his turn around time for the shots were excellent. You will NOT REGRET going with Christian or working with this company. We've worked with other family photographers in the past- as a matter of fact, as a former Event Coordinator for 18+yrs, I have worked with numerous photographers in my business... And I can't say enough how much we loved working with Christian. There are no words invented yet for how pleased we are with the experience AND the photos. And we will have these to look at and remind us of what we have overcome and what we have built. So happy. Thank you Christian!! read more

Dino did our engagement photoshoot and then our wedding. The best photographer. He picked a great spot for our engagement photoshoot and the photos came out beautiful. He's very fun, easy to work with and is very precise with the pictures. We also hired him for our wedding and he went above and beyond what a photographer does. He would get us water in between during breaks and made sure that my tie looks perfect. Me and my wife are definitely gonna stick with him for our future photoshoots. read more

Dino is an amazing photographer. I met Dino at a bridal expo in San Francisco. I told him that my fiancé and I wanted to do our engagement photos in San Francisco. Dino was very familiar with doing photos in San Francisco and made suggestions of where we could go if we didn't have ideas ourselves. His suggestions were amazing and we ended up doing the places he mentioned with one spot we wanted. The day of our photo shoot, Dino was early (which to me means on time!) and shared his vision for the day. When it came to taking our photos, Dino knew how to capture our love for each other. From the placement of our hands to head tilts, kisses and where to look, he was able to capture every detail. When we got our photos, I had so many butterflies because of how amazing they turned out!! He captured the love my fiancé and I have for each other and I could not be happier. Even though he offered to change/adjust our photos to what we wanted, there was nothing to change. They were perfect!!! read more

We first hired Dino in 2022 for our company holiday party and the photos came out so amazing, we invited him back for our 2023 celebration. Dino has a sixth sense for capturing the good stuff - the belly laughs, the awkward dance moves, and all the in-between moments that make our parties uniquely ours. What we love most is that it feels as though they're part of our crew. It's not just a photoshoot; it's like having friends who just happen to be really, really good at taking pictures. The photos are published in a very timely manner and the quality is incomparable. Book OSA! read more

I'm a photographer myself and have worked semi-professionally for many years, including shooting weddings. So when I came to shooting my own wedding I wanted to make sure we got someone excellent. We hired Dino to shoot our civil ceremony at SF City Hall as well as a larger wedding at the Brazilian Room in Berkeley. Dino and his team not only met, but greatly surpassed our hopes. What really stood out, in addition to the great photos, was the calming presence of Dino and Nicole. Weddings can be whirlwinds of emotions and schedules, but they helped us navigated both our civil ceremony and our larger wedding days day - providing a much-appreciated anchor in our bustling celebration (and helping us get on track even when thing were running late). Communication was impeccable from our first interaction through to the final delivery of our photos. If you're seeking a photography team that delivers exceptional quality, has a wonderful demeanor, and prioritizes clear communication, I wholeheartedly recommend OSA Fotography. We're grateful for their contribution to our wedding and couldn't be happier with the results. Don't miss out on working with them! read more

This review is long over due. My apologies to Dino and his team for taking so long to post this. First off my husband and I would like express our gratitude, we were very happy and satisfied with our engagement and wedding photos. Dino and his team were professional, responsive and went above and beyond during our experience working together. A few things went unplanned on our end the day of our engagement shoot as the fountain at the location was drained for maintenance but Dino quickly improvised to see that this bride-to-be had water scenery and took us to the beach to take the most beautiful pictures. Dino also took the time to listen to what type of poses we wanted but most of our best pictures came from the candid photos he took while we were just being our natural selves. We received so many compliments of our engagement photos as they were displayed the day of our wedding. As for the day of our wedding I am beyond grateful for all the attention to detail - From making sure bridesmaids bouquets were dried off before snapping pictures so the bridesmaids wouldn't stain their dresses, to clearing the room while I was feeling overwhelmed for my solo pictures, to staying on track with schedule and seeing that things just flowed without feeling like we kept pausing to take pictures. Every moment of the day was captured from getting ready with bridesmaids and groomsmen, family photos and so many fun memories. We received our pictures timely and of great quality. Pricing is very reasonable considering the professionalism, quality and just that feeling that you are in good hands during the entire process. Thank you, thank you, thank you for making our experience so special!!! read more

Very professional attitude and great personality that matched the photographic talent and skill. Would definitely hire OSA Fotography again without hesitation. Thank you, Dino, for everything! You made our day more memorable than it already was. All love. read more

OSA Fotography - Beautiful photography - Event Photography Near Me

My family and I were looking for a Bay Area based photographer to take photos of us since this was the first time in a while that we were all in the same area for an extended amount of time...thanks to COVID and working from home. We reached out to Dino along with a few other prominent photographers that were recommended to us by friends and his response was the most genuine out of the bunch. He addressed every question we had with the utmost sincerity. We wanted to take photos in our traditional Indian attire along with western wear. Dino was onboard and made the best recommendations regarding locations(Palace of the Fine Arts and Baker Beach) for each wardrobe change. He even helped us decide on what colors to wear for each shoot and gave us his professional options based on what would look best given the time of day and light exposure. In total there were 5 of us(me, my parents, sister and niece) and throughout the day he was absolutely amazing. He was patient, waited for some winds to die down before shooting and not rushing the experience. Even before the first shot he wanted to make sure we parked our cars in a safe area to avoid any thefts which is apparently a thing out here. My Niece would randomly ask him to take photos of her and Dino was so accommodating with her 7 year old needs...it was cute to see. My family and I are very much appreciative of him and will happily hire him again for other works. We can't wait to see the final product! read more

I can't say enough about Dino!!! This man is the best! Easy to work with, reasonable and just good vibes all around. Dino did my engagement and wedding photos. Easy to communicate with and took all of our envisions and made them come to life! There was not one photo I didn't like. Will recommend OSA Fotography to anyone who is searching for professional photos. read more

Dino and his partner exceeded our expectations for wedding photography! He's so easy to work with and makes it so easy to crack a natural smile. His candid photos are priceless and I 100% recommend him to anyone looking! read more

Dino was referred to my wife and I for our wedding and we couldn't be happier. We contracted Dino for our wedding and an engagement shoot as well. When scheduling our engagement shoot Dino was flexible and understanding when we had to change our dates last minute due to the heavy smoke in the Bay Area. Dino was friendly and professional and during the engagement shoot and he really knew how to relax my wife for the shoot which served as a great warm up to shooting photos for the wedding. We still had some smokey haze for our wedding but Dino assured us not to be worried which made us at ease. He knew how to capture the light and create some really cool effects with depth of field. The photos came out AMAZING and he captured many cherished memories that we will be happy to have forever. The best part about working with Dino was how easy he was to work with and that he knew how to direct us during shooting while making it fun. Dino also was open to suggestions of where we wanted to shoot at the wedding venue and any poses we wanted to do which made us feel like we were working together instead of the photographer taking complete control. We look forward to working with Dino again and highly recommend! read more

Dino was amazing! I highly recommend him. He was friendly and personable. He was knowledgeable about City hall, the lighting, and the best places for pictures for our wedding. He was patient and accommodating. He allowed my husband and I to take photos with all the different groups in our party. He was helpful and helped fix my husbands tie or collar often to make sure we got the best photos. I would love to use him again for another event. read more

It doesn't get any better than Dino and his team! He recently shot our wedding which was an unusual arrangement - City Hall ceremony at noon, photos around SF for a few hours and then a reception in the East Bay. Oh, and it was on a Monday. Dino and his team are so professional! Dino knows how to fix bangs, when an area needs more makeup (for photos) and best of all, he keeps you on time! Take his recommendations! They are worth it! Dino and his team were worth every penny! Remember, wedding photos last a lifetime - make sure you hire OSA Fotography to ensure they turn out beautiful! read more

Dino is a professional through and through. Dino shot our wedding last November. He made the trek down to San Diego and captured every moment beautifully. Prior to the wedding we were able to discuss shots we had in mind. The day of wedding went so smooth, I really couldn't have asked for anything more. Dino suggested we go a first look photo and I'm so glad we did, they turned out to be some of my favorite shots. After the wedding Dino was able to do a quick turn around and made sure get us a few photos for us to use for holiday card ( which is crazy fast considering we were married in November). I highly recommend Dino , thanks again Dino we love the our photos so much . read more

OSA Fotography - Photo from our " First Look" - Event Photography Near Me

Dino is a very warm-hearted and talented individual. While guiding you through your sitting, he is gentle and thoughtful, I experienced this first-hand while having my maternity photos taken. We decided a few floor shots would be nice, besides feeling like the blueberry reincarnate of Violet Beauregarde, I was also wearing a light colors: light pink and ivory. Dino not only assisted me in sitting down and getting up, but also laid down something for me to sit on so I wouldn't get dirty. It's things like that, attention to detail and thoughtfulness, that separate the great, from the good, and Dino is great. Before the shoot, I was so nervous, and from the moment we started until I went to bed, I was feeling good and smiling. Not to mention, he sent a little preview collage to get me more excited about the finished product. I would absolutely hire Dino and his camera again, and give him the highest recommendation. 5 STARS!!! :) read more

Dino is by far the best photographer I have ever been photographed by hands down! His attention to detail and creativity makes for some really beautiful photos. When I have a professional take my photos I expect for them to have the ability to guide me and my family with posing and what not. Dino definitely has that! He makes you feel like you're a model at a highend photo shoot. Others in the past have just thrown us in a group and snapped the pictures...leaving us photos that looked like we could've done better ourselves. Dino's photos look more like art. He knows how to capture an individual's beauty. I was lucky to have him photograph my family (2 adults & 3 kids). His vibrant energy during the shoot was infectious which made my family look even better in our photos. He was very detail oriented...if a lock of hair was out of place he would catch it...a shirt not tucked the right way he'd fix it...a leaf on the ground oddly positioned, he'd notice that as well. I'm not big on yelp. I only write reviews when I am truly moved enough...either good or bad. For this one it is 100% all GOOD. Dino is without a doubt a master at his craft! read more

Dino took our engagement pictures and part of our wedding pictures. He is amazing!! He really takes the time to figure out what you want, he is reasonably priced, and he will make sure your day goes as planned. He will run back and forth for you to make sure that everything is going as scheduled. I would really suggest Dino to take your photos for any occasion, he is amazing and has such a great eye!! read more

OSA Fotography - Our engagement :) - Event Photography Near Me

If you're looking for a talented, creative, honest and professional photographer Dino of OSA photography is the person to work with. Dino was the photographer for my wedding back in November 2015, aside from Dino providing a great experience to my wife and I, I kept getting comments from all my guests about how great our photographer was. Dino started our partnership with a consultation, understanding what we wanted and actually getting to know us. He came in with enthusiasm and excitement about being apart of our big day which allowed us to picture exactly what we wanted. He checked in with us weeks prior to make sure things were running smoothly, day of, I couldn't have asked for more. He was very personable and made everyone comfortable. When it came down to receiving our photos, he got them to us exactly as he quoted. And I literally relived every moment of our wedding. So much happened that day I couldn't even put it together. But when I saw his photos it was like I was there all over again. He captured moments I didn't even realized happened. That right here proved how talented Dino was. If you want the reassurance of great photos for any occasion, Dino is the man. He will not disappoint you. read more

What can I say Dino is amazing! He was on point with everything and just all in all a great guy! He was very friendly and very detailed. Wanted every picture to come out perfect knowing how special a wedding can be. He even helped all the guys fold our pocket squares (it has been a while since prom). I can not keep count of how many people from our wedding have called us saying what a great guy he is. There is no doubt in my mind if I ever hear a word of someone needing a photographer I will be quick to refer Dino! Hell I might just go to venues just to promote him my self! Thanks Dino for not only being our photographer but becoming our friend! read more

I've recently had my maternity photos taken by Dino and I can say I'm beyond happy with the work he did. The photos are amazing and I'm so in love with the sceneries he had chosen. I explained to him the change of clothes that I had brought with me (not even showing him how they looked) and he was able to match up the locations so perfectly with my attire that it completely amazed me . The photo he took with the trees behind us took my breath away. The lighting is perfect, the angle is perfect, everything about this picture came out perfect. Both of the photos I've chosen to share are definitely going to be a large print on display at my baby shower. I would be crazy if I didn't. There is absolutely nothing I can say bad about this experience since it went so well. Time actually flew by, but at the same time, at a perfect pace where we were still able to enjoy and soak up the these last few moments before the baby arrives. read more

From the very beginning, getting the details, making sure we were all organized and meeting at the same time, to your follow through even after the wedding. It felt so great to not have to worry about any of that. Thank you for taking on all of that and not showing one ounce of stress during the whole process. Amazing. Amazing. Amazing.
