From communication prior to booking, during the event and the final product, I was thoroughly impressed by Brittany and Connor's professionalism. Connor was hilarious and really connected with the teens and the guests. He got specific shots I had requested and kept me on a timeline to make sure I would get the best pictures. His work was amazing! Super quick turn around too. I look forward to working with them again.

Finding a photographer for a surprise proposal is daunting enough. Add in the fact that we had just…read morearrived to Orange County and knew no one in Southern California, and it was downright stressful! Mary made it less so. With her knowledge of the area, she was able to add in a few helpful tips on how to make the day even more magical, from proposal tips to info about the location I planned on. But let's talk about what you really want to hear about: the photos. After the butterflies and excitement of a proposal, my fiancée and I were so nervous that we didn't know how to take photos afterwards. Mary got us distracted -- encouraging me to talk about how I asked for her parents blessing -- and shot some amazing photos. As a testament to Mary's skills, or perhaps my fiancée's beauty, we retouched exactly zero photos. On top of that, within a few days we had a link in our mailbox to see them all, just in time for an Instagram post. I cannot recommend Mary enough. Thank you!

If you are looking for a photographer who captures beautiful moments in black and white you have to…read moreuse Pradhan. They have done two sets of photos for my family, beach photos and newborn, both experiences were terrific and the photos were amazing. Setting up the shoot is really easy and working with Rachel to explain what you are looking for us really easy too. The first family photos we took at Salt Creek and they totally accommodated my son's nap schedule. They were really warm and friendly with my son who was 18 mos at the time and that made the entire experience really enjoyable. Those photos are so beautiful and we constantly receive compliments on them. We also set up newborn photos recently and the experience was wonderful. Rachel recommended that they come to my house for the photos. A lot of other newborn photographers have you go to their studio and they limit the amount of people you can photograph. When you are sleep deprived, having the photos taken at your house is so so so much easier and less stressful. They were super patient the entire time since the baby had to nurse a bunch and was fussy. They were able to capture some really beautiful moments with my family and I can't wait to send the announcement out and share photos of our daughter! They will definitely be the people I call for family photos in the future.

We all know that capturing the moment of love ones with real fresh emotions in it is very hard to…read moredo - or almost impossible... By taking picture or video could create something beautiful and fun to look at. We enjoy them because we remember how things were back then. But those memories of "feelings" fade away as time passes.. . I always wished I could keep it forever. Then at the first time I saw my daughter's portrait the Pradhan Studio took, I was blown away. I was like" omg! my baby!" and literally my eyes were flooded by tear. Just amazing job they do. They know how to capture real fresh emotion of child; and bring out family joy and excitement to show. Kids grew up so fast, so fast that I couldn't quite remember how exactly these moments were like. I really wish I had known The Pradhan Studio back then, The amazing pictures of my baby in every single milestone of wonderful years could have been on my wall by now...I really wish I had done that...

There won't be enough space or time for me to praise Michael enough…read more So watch this instead: http://youtu.be/IAuC2VpgIvw Now here's the kind of person you'll be working with: Thoughtful thoughtful thoughtful! Humble (in fact I'm pretty sure he didn't have a Yelp till recently and never even asked for a review even though he could've totally asked and I would have) What I mean is he's just cool. He's not salesy, or entitled, or impersonal. He is just a cool dude! You'll see. He captured the tiny, special moments of my most special day with my husband and I in a way I couldn't have even prayed for. Consultation, phone calls, text messages, follow ups... Then coffee! Then the research he does, the extra shots he takes when none is looking so that little extra something special can happen. Then the day of: early, helpful, kind, and thoughtful! Stays late, works his bum off and I'm not even sure if I remembered to feed him. I had so much to think about but I ended up forgetting that he wasn't just one of the guests! I cannot recommend him highly enough. If you're thinking about it stop thinking about it and just do it. The level of detail, the talent, the ability to pick out those perfect moments and include them cannot be overlooked. Gah, had I known what I was getting, had I known how hard he was going to work and how happy his work would make us and that I would literally, still be watching the video at least 1-3 times per week 7 months after I would have done so much more for him. Again, there aren't enough words to explain what you'll get by working with him. There's something incredibly special about HIM, he will make YOU the art, he's a mirror for what you are in those moments and on that day and he humbly sees you for who you are and doesn't force his "style" on you. Even though he's got a really cool style he'll still keep it you and authentic. We look like ballers at our wedding and don't get me wrong it was an absolute blast, best party ever , but it's pretty rad that he caught the highlights the way he did! Just get married so you can have him film it already. We love this guy! And you will too.

He made the entire planning process so easy and stress free leading up to our wedding, and he was so fun to work with day-of.

Regarding our photos, Elvis was so good at guiding us and capturing the beautiful moments of our interactions, and I definitely love the color harmonies in the photos. I look forward to having Elvis in my wedding day for my special moments!

She sent us a sneak peaks a few days later before sending us a huge gallery of photos (natural and black and white) just 8 days after.
