This is a long due review. We had the pleasure of working with James for our wedding photos in…read more2023. James was absolutely the hardest working vendor at our wedding. He arrived on time and worked his camera tirelessly for almost 10 hours capturing our entire wedding. He even kneeled on the ground to take many of our photos which to this day we are still amazed by his professionalism. Great work ethic as well. You would think for a 10 hr event, many photographers would take several breaks but not James. He took so many photos and urged us to take more pictures. Communication was fast, responsive and stress free. We were very comfortable with him on our big day as well as for our engagement photos. The only thing I would mention is to practice poses ahead of time, some were a little repetitive and lacked the "instagram wow" feel but if you're someone not good with posing, James will give suggestions so don't worry. The best part is you get to keep all of the photos not just the selected edited ones. I now realized not all photographers will give you the entire gallery which would be a huge disappointment for your big day. I like his editing style which is realistic and authentic with enhanced color. As many mentioned, turn around time was super fast. James also made several small edits to our final gallery to make the pictures even better. Pricing was reasonable. Overall it was a pleasant experience.

I'm a wedding planner in Los Angeles, and my wedding last month at the Neighborhood Church in Palos…read moreVerdes was the first time I've worked with Joey Ikemoto Photography. From the beginning to the day of, they made everything so easy. There was someone who was always available if either me or my couple had questions, for one. Scheduling meetings and engagement shoot was great. Joey's Jonathan was our photographer at the wedding, and he and his assistant were wonderful and fun. They were great with the guests, and great sticking to a pretty short timeline, with some helpful suggestions. I'd love to work with them again. - Liz Coopersmith Silver Charm Events

We're so happy and lucky we got to have Joey Ikemoto and his team capture the beautiful memories of…read moreour special day!! When I was first looking for a photographer, I was in awe of his variety of artistic and breathtaking photos on his site from other weddings & events. As a fellow creative, I wanted someone that could see the possibilities and offer unique photos and he went above and beyond that! Joey really put us at ease with his fun energy & sense of humor. We all had a great time laughing with our wedding party and everyone. Joey and his team are so friendly, creative and professional. We really appreciate how quickly Joey and Mr. Tracy responded to our questions in the beginning and in the consultation. Even with the heatwave in LA of our wedding weekend, our photos came out AMAZING. The love, joy and giddiness of that day is captured along with the little details in our centerpieces and other things that we made for our wedding. Here's a few our favorite photos from the preview. We're so excited to see the rest! We highly recommend Joey Ikemoto Photography!! Thank you so much Joey and team for everything!

Jonathan and Elisabeth displayed a knack for capturing the magic of every little moment, and also for bringing out the beauty of our wedding venue. Having both of them as photographers allowed us to get a wide variety of photos, yet did not feel intrusive at all. They were extremely professional and worked well together, and also coordinated smoothly with our videographer (whom they had never met before). Finally, we appreciated Jonathan's organization and patience throughout the entire process. He set up a call prior to the wedding to learn more about our preferences, and was always courteous and helpful even when we took forever afterwards to decide on our photo book selections. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
