I cannot stop looking at our gorgeous photos!!! The lighting, the angles, the composition. Bre…read moretruly knows her stuff. When my husband and I first spoke with her about photographing our wedding we talked about wanting to capture those beautiful, candid moments. We told her we were more familiar with being behind the camera than in front of it so we might need some direction. But the most important thing was that she stick to her style, which is elegant and classic, yet somehow effortless and intimate. It's a style we loved, but we could never have anticipated the magic that she captured. Bre did an incredible job of documenting the day. When I was frazzled and being pulled in a million different directions, she was calm and supportive. I could see that she was on top of it, which immediately put me at ease. She was wonderful at balancing the line between letting us do our thing and finding moments for us to freeze or slightly reposition. She made the day more fun and we knew that we were in good hands. She gave great advice and has incredible instincts. My family is not the easiest and they loved her. We're both in the film industry and can be quite critical and we loved her. She is kind and professional and insanely talented. I cannot put into words how grateful we are that we found Bre and that we had the good sense to hire her. She made our day and now we not only have memories that will last a lifetime, but stunning photos that far exceed anything that I could have imagined. Who would have thought we could look so damn good! I cannot recommend Bre enough and will be recommending her to anyone who will listen.

How can I even begin to give Bre (and her team: Kate and Nicola) the justice and review they…read moredeserve. They were more I could ever hope for and more! We found Bre through one of my bridesmaids and best friends. She had worked with her at weddings when she worked for a caterer and Bre was the photographer. Choosing a photographer was always something I felt would be difficult. My family owns Nestldown and I have seen thousands of wedding photos and photographers but now it was time for my husband and I to pick our own! We looked at Bre's facebook photos and I saw a photo of a father of the groom with tears of joy welling in his eyes and I felt as though I was at their wedding and experiencing that same love: I was hooked. Well my husband, who is initially a pretty big introvert needed to feel comfortable with her as well. We met in Mountain View before one of his work shifts and she wowed him too. She made him feel comfortable immediately and like she was a friend he could trust and wouldn't let feel uncomfortable - that's just not her personality!! We hired her on the spot and never have regretted it!! We took our engagement photos a few months before the wedding and after seeing her magic with other couples, we felt it in our own photos! We had such a blast hopping location to location with out Bernese Mountain Dog (super important to us she could capture him too) and the photos were perfect. My friends and family told me they were the most beautiful photos they had ever seen! She gave us instruction, specific ones that made it easy for Kyle to know what he should do - not question if his pose was right. She is also patient and quick: She captures every moment and is especially good at waiting for the perfect ones even if it means leaving you in a pose long enough you break into laughter!! On the day of our wedding, she was a calming presence and quick!! We got a sneak preview of our photos within 24 hours and they were perfect. It was hard to believe that we could love 50/50 photos and that wouldn't even be close the the number we would receive when we get the full album!!!! One of my favorites is when she caught the most amazing photo of my husband crying as I came down the aisle. It is something I will treasure forever and something I hope will inspire another Couple to choose her as well!!!!! She was incredibly fast with our post-ceremony photos which was important since we had 3 sets of Grandparents over 80 (mine being 93) that wouldn't be patient for long! She was done fast and worked amazingly with our video team (Grover Films!). She has become more than our photographer, she is our friend and even family!! We look forward to seeing the rest but also having a life long photographer for family photos, maternity shoots, etc.! We are so grateful and that still doesn't even begin to describe it!!! Love, Diana and Kyle Einfalt 09.07.18

Tom was very professional and provided an enjoyable experience throughout entire process. He provided quick response time to all of our questions and was able to give advice on how to structure the photo timeline on our wedding day to make it go as smooth and stress free as possible. During our wedding day, Tom identified great and unique shots and gave good directions during our couple shots. He was able to get a lot of good candid shots during the reception along with all of the requested photos we asked for throughout the day. We are currently going through the process of designing our wedding album and were presented with a lot of options to choose from to customize the cover material, paper type, color, and design. We are very happy working with Tom for our wedding and would highly recommend him for anyone who is looking for high quality and memorable photos.

If you are in need of a wedding photographer look no more - He is it! Thank you Tom for capturing all these beautiful memories that my husband and I can look back at

Princess Sarah is an expert in hair, makeup, and skin care! Since I've met Princess Sarah, I now see her once a month for facials and not only did she do a wonderful job on my engagement makeup and hair, she is also doing my makeup for my wedding! A few things to note about her service. First, she's awesome! She works with your schedule and thinks about things you might not think about. Second, she does research on the look you want. She doesn't just have one style of hair or makeup, she will do whatever it takes to achieve the look that you want. So if you show her pictures of what you want she will achieve it. But she also will recommend what is best for you. She's extremely good at looking at someone and identifying their best features and then making the best features stand out. Princess Sarah is truly a great person with a good heart. Even if you're not looking for hair and makeup for an event, go see her for skin care! My skin looks even better now that I've been seeing her. My pores have gotten significantly smaller too!!! She is amazing!!! I've added photos from my engagement photo session where Princess Sarah did my hair and makeup.

I wanted to get some professional photos done for social media When I want professional services,…read moresometimes I get pushy and impatient if things aren't "perfect" (or whatever my version of perfect is for the situation) so I did some research. I found Jillian through her previous Yelp page, "Jillian Kay Photography". NB: she prefers all new reviews on Epoxy. The services I ended up selecting: two mini sessions for boyfriend and myself. I never felt unhappy while working with Jillian. Her professionalism is well-rounded and shows in all her services and interactions. Epoxy Studio's website specifically states that she often cannot respond to phone calls, especially if she's in scheduled sessions with other clients. I was totally OK with e-mailing (my preferred method of communication anyways), and got a fast response time via e-mail. Picking a time despite our limited availability was quick (a few back-and-forth e-mails), and everything was set up in 24 hours. Contracts and payment was done online and taken care of before our session. Getting to Epoxy Studios was probably the most difficult part of the entire process. It is hard to miss, with several large trees obscuring the building entryway. Honestly, I'm nitpicking at this point... We had a little detour getting to the studio, since Google Maps announced we were here but I couldn't see it.... I thought we had to park in the parking lot immediately before, but there is street parking. Jillian was waiting (very patiently) outside of the complex to guide us and it helped a lot! Our sessions started with discussions on strategic poses and concepts over fresh coffee. The shoot took 10min (as listed on the website). Total time (including parking, talking, shooting) took ~1 hour for both of us. We were in and out, and received our proofs within 3 hours. After deciding on our final 2 edited portraits, our Viewbook albums were given to us in 24 hours! Overall, very happy with the services. Process was incredibly efficient, and I find it hard to believe any other photographers with studios in the SJ area would offer a better experience for our needs. Thanks Jillian!

I was delighted when I met her at a networking event - she was friendly and made me immediately feel comfortable. Her enthusiasm for the joy of the process was contagious! I had a great time at the photo shoot. Jillian gracefully allowed me to be me, whatever that took. It relaxed me in ways that helped me feel natural, and let some comfortable images take hold. She also, of course, had good instructions for me as to what I could do to help make a good shot ("lean this way", "look over here") and was always conscious ways to use the natural lighting. Truly, Jillian's work speaks for her. The photographs are awesome! She took a lot of pics, and gave me 70 fabulous ones to choose from! And what fun it was - I was amazed to see how good I looked! She caught such wonderful moments that looked so good in a head shot. And then she made them even better with her tweaking magic! I feel so lucky to have meet this creative soul. She is an amazing host to her studio. She sweetly offered help all along the way, in whatever ways I should so need. If, or I will say WHEN I need more head shots -- she's the one!!! Great photos. Great price. And a great time!!! Thank you Jillian!!

Two4Tea did a fantastic job for my son's (and now daughter-in-law) wedding at Nestldown. As one of…read morethe recommended videographers for this site, we are so happy we went with them. I was the wedding planner for the couple and worked directly with Ross. There are 4 package options to choose from and we chose the Tea and Cake package. From the get go, Ross was very responsive and easy to work with. We had a number of questions before we signed with him and he patiently answered them. All of our meetings were done via zoom, email or telephone calls. As the wedding date drew closer, Ross' response time was even faster! His team mate, Johanna, who also did the wedding day videos, was such a delight to work with. She is so pleasant and friendly. Johanna did the groom's getting ready time at our house while Ross did the bride's getting ready session. At the wedding venue, both Ross and Johanna were "invisible" during the whole event. I did not see them at all but they were everywhere and captured the essence of the wedding. They were excellent in making sure our guests (family and friends) were well represented in the wedding video. They also worked seamlessly with our photographer and did not get in her way. They met our photographer for the first time at the wedding venue and this was the first time they worked with her. No issues The turnaround time from the first teaser film to the final finished full length 60- minute video was spot on. We got the teaser within a week of the wedding; the 10 minute highlight video within 10 weeks (delay was due to our late feedback time to Ross) and the final full length video not long after. The quality of the video was excellent and we really didn't have too many edits/changes we wanted or needed to make. Two4Tea captured every precious moment of the wedding event - I missed the cake cutting ceremony but was able to enjoy it from the video. We have watched the video many times and it always brings happy tears as we re-live that special day for so many. One last shout out: The couple live in Chicago and I live in California. When the full video was completed, Ross sent one copy to me and the other 2 copies to the couple in Chicago. He didn't want me to wait to see the video. He even included some tea to go along with the video! So thoughtful and I really appreciated that gesture. I would definitely recommend Ross and his Two4Tea company for your special events. You won't regret it

I wanted the most important day of our lives to be remembered through amazing pictures. I just happened to stumble across Breanne and Fernando's Instagram page, and I am SO, SO happy that I did. It brought me comfort in knowing they are a husband and wife team, only because I felt like I had no idea what I was doing. They told me multiple times that they were there if I ever needed anything through out the planning process. Not only are they are very personable, and relatable, they put me at ease multiple times when we connected to talk about the wedding- it felt like we have known them for years, and not just spoke over the phone. Their turn around time is crazy quick. They were able to get us our entire gallery back within 2 and a half weeks after our New Years Day wedding. My husband I are were SO happy with how the photos came out. We heard nothing but compliments of the quality, editing, and overall picture taking. The details that Fernando caught on our wedding day, are ones that I will cherish forever. He also took the time to learn everyone's name that was in the bridal party, and was able to direct/pose us with no issues. The only thing I wish we had done more was take our engagement pics with them as well. I highly recommend Vivo Photography for your wedding day, you will not be disappointed.

From the minute I met them, I felt an instant connection with both of them. They were both kind and very professional from the start. They were 2 of the photographers we narrowed our search down to. We eventually went with them for their professionalism, sincere care for our needs, and cost. Our engagement pictures were amazing. Fernando guided us the whole time which was a big deal especially for my husband who hates being photographed and can be super awkward. I think lots of men have this issue :) Little did we know that our big wedding would be cancelled by a global pandemic 3 weeks before our big day. Breanna and Fernando worked with us patiently as we tried to find a new date and a new venue! They stayed the course with us. They prioritized us and reassured us that they would be there when the big day finally came. When we finally got married, they were attentive and captured the most beautiful photos of our wedding. It was such a beautiful day and I am so glad that they were there to help us with these special memories. Our gallery was delivered timely and the layout of the website they use is great. Overall, I would highly recommend Vivo Photographry! In fact I did. They also photographed my cousins wedding the same year. If you are looking for an amazing team to work with that can deliver on the final product, they are the perfect choice. Thank you Vivo Photographry!
