From the moment of booking through following up after we had purchased our final products, her communication was phenomenal and timely. Booking our session was very easy and user-friendly (all done online) and she made her instructions and what to expect very clear and straight forward. We knew exactly where to go, when to go, and she was ready for us when we arrived at the beautiful location she had picked out for these sessions. Our session went wonderfully and we were so in love with our photos. She also made several options available to expanding our package from our base package that we started with, which made picking out photos for different family members a very easy and streamlined process. We would recommend her in a heartbeat and will definitely book her again in the future.

I truly cannot say enough great things about Melissa. Her gorgeous portfolio of photos speak for…read morethemselves, but equally important is how incredible she was to work with over the last year. From our engagement photos to our rehearsal dinner to the wedding day (which she flew across the country for!), she was there for us. She went above and beyond by meeting with our wedding planner to curate the perfect timeline so we could make the most out of our time together, coming to our wedding venue the day before to scope out all the good locations, and so much more. Melissa made us feel so at ease in front of the camera and was just such a positive energy to have around on the wedding day. This was so important to us when choosing a wedding photographer, because we knew we'd be spending so much of the day together. She didn't shy away from the craziness of our very large wedding party and she was so attentive to me and made sure I was in good spirits the whole day. Even our friends and family were commenting on how much they loved her! After the wedding, we got so many sneak peaks within just a few days. Even if I never saw another wedding photo, I'd still be content from just the preview. They were better than we ever could have imagined and we got tons of compliments from the people we shared them with. My personal favorite comment from my sister was, "I wish she would have been my wedding photographer!" That pretty much says everything you need to know. I have no idea how she does what she does, she makes it seem so effortless. We are beyond grateful for Melissa!

Our pictures came out beautiful and our whole family loves them. Leah has a great instinct for capturing special moments. It was a truly wonderful all-around experience. Thank you, Leah!

My husband and I are both pretty awkward in front of the camera, but she made us feel so comfortable and at ease the entire time, ensuring we looked natural at the best angles! Danya is always incredibly responsive, easy to communicate with, and amazing at keeping everything efficient and on schedule. Her Mandarin skills was such a huge plus too, since it made communication with our family and relatives so much easier. She was seriously one of the MVPs of our wedding day, helping us stay on track while still making sure we got all the photos we wanted. We're so grateful and would highly recommend her/book her again! :)

Not just the main events, but the setting, the overall vibe, and all those candid side moments and emotions from our friends and family that we otherwise would have missed. We still get emotional every time we look back through the gallery. She's extremely professional but also just brought really good vibes and meshed well with everyone. Getting group shots can be chaotic, but she had great command of the crowd and made everyone feel comfortable. Even if you aren't used to being photographed, she gives such great direction and puts you completely at ease so none of the posing feels stiff or forced. Her attention to detail is next level, always catching the little things before taking a shot, like making sure we took hair ties off wrists or emptied out bulky pockets. We are so grateful to have these memories preserved so perfectly!

When you want someone to photograph this once in a lifetime moment, you know you need the expertise of someone like Joseph, who has photographed hundreds of proposals himself.

Diana is an amazing and talented photographer (and person). There is no one else I would trust to…read morecapture our family together more than her. We hire her at least annually, sometimes twice a year, to capture our family together as our son grows older. She took our photos when our son was just a few weeks old, and most recently, she took photos of my entire family (us, my parents, sister, and brother in law) which meant so much to me as my dad was diagnosed with cancer earlier this year. I will cherish those photos forever. I am a plus size girl and sometimes can feel self-conscious when taking photos, but Diana always makes me feel comfortable, knows how to pose us, and makes our sessions fun. Most importantly, I always love the images she delivers. Our son is autistic and can sometimes be difficult to capture as he doesn't sit still and has meltdowns, but she is so patient and kind. My sister plans on hiring her for her wedding and I will continue to hire her over and over every year because she is seriously the best. I am so glad I found her and appreciate her so much.

I always struggled with what to wear and how to pair our outfits. Diana to the rescue! She helped with providing me a gorgeous dress and she styled my husband and sons outfits as well so we all looked and felt amazing. I cannot recommend Diana highly enough if you are looking for a photographer.
