Another great lesson on photographers work flows last night. Len started charging $10 just recently…read morefor what used to be free class offers. This was due to the large number of folks who signed up for each of his free class but failed to show up. There are a lot of flaky peeps out there who take up spots in class while others who really want to come to class and learn are put on the waiting list and do not get to come to the class. Charging a small $10 fee ensures only those who are serious about learning comes. And judging from last night, it worked! It is definitely worth every penny we paid as every time I learn something new and it does not make sense that he does not charge as he has bills to pay and he needs to make a living!! Now the class size is much smaller; there were only 6 of us last night, and each of us got to ask more questions and get more individual attention. Another great lesson on how to effectively manage your work flows starting from your camera to the organization and file structures on your computer. Most of us in class use Light Room so he focused more time on that. Len is definitely a great teacher and I especially appreciate that he takes the time to explain using examples and to make sure you understand each concept, as opposed to just rushing through his course materials without knowing if the class is really learning. (This is in contrary to another class I took at another guy's photography workshops.) He does not rush and is quite patient if the class is not getting it. He'll explain even in more details and using more examples. A couple months ago I also took his lighting workshop and learned about the basics of using strobe and even got some equipment from him for real cheap. I do not understand the one star rating from someone on Yelp. If you look around everyone gives a 5-star rating. What she described about Len does not sound like him at all. She must have got it on a wrong date, or went to a wrong address, or whatever. Note that once you get to the location, the door is sometimes close especially in winter time as the studio is cold. You can just go ahead and open the door as it is unlocked when he has a class. Len is a very nice guy and he has been in the photography business for at least 20 years. He knows how to work with and serve clients so this negative review looks very fishy. Anyway I found out he is going to teach a 6-week series on Light Room in which you will learning every module including the developing module. This is what I am looking for so I am looking forward to taking the class soon.

I've been going here as a model, working with different photographers, for years.

Len and Scott are my favorite photographers there - they always make me feel welcome and confident, and perhaps most importantly, the pictures always turn out gorgeous.

I have recommended the studio to my friends who have wanted to try modeling or just get professional shots done, and those that have gone have always been happy with their pictures.

SO, I decided to hire Photo3lements for the Holiday party I was planning at AT&T Park for 350 people. They HIT IT OUT OF THE PARK!!!!! (see what I did there?) They provided 2 photographers, photo booth with 2 attendants AND a videographer. Photographers: They were able to capture all aspects of the event in a unique way. I had give them little guidance, as they knew what they were doing. They captured everyone and were everywhere. Something I was concerned with given how big the venue was. They were on it and SUPER pleasant to work with! Photo booth: FUN FUN FUN! The quality and variety of all the props and backdrop options was wonderful! Allan's design of the background on the photos were perfect! Aesthetics are extremely important to me when I am planning events and what he produced was perfect! The attendants made it even more fun and kept the line moving smoothly. I am SO glad that we added this feature!!! Videography: This was such a GREAT option to add!!! Not only did they capture various parts of the event, but they produced a BEAUTIFUL surprise video montage for someone special here. They were discrete and did such a beautiful job putting it together. I am not easy to please. I plan a lot of events and take pride them being executed flawlessly. I am so glad that I hired Photo3lements, as they were a great partner, easy to work with, attentive and positive. I am impressed and hope to used them for ALL of my future events! Thank you so much Allan!

Our guests definitely enjoyed themselves and the green screen photobooth was one of the main reasons. The RM employees were incredibly friendly and social. Their positive attitude was very inviting. The setup was professional and easy to use. I love designing and customizing for our family events and Rael allowed me to do that with the layout of the photo card and backgrounds. In case you don't want to do all that, he has a large selection of designs for you to choose from. Great experience! I hope to book them again in the future or recommend them to anyone else. *Update We booked Rael's company again for our baby's first birthday this past weekend. It was another AWESOME experience. The guests enjoyed it and we appreciated Rael's professionalism and enthusiasm during the event. He definitely knows what he's doing. Once again, I highly recommend booking RM Event Services if you need a picture/video booth for you event.

I never look good in photos - either I'm looking at the floor or my eyes are closed or I forget to smile. Sergei was patient, showed me a few tricks ("portrait photography 101") that helped a lot, and produced several good photos. The studio is part of his living room and is very comfortable and informal, which I appreciated. Sergei himself is a nice guy and puts you at ease in what can sometimes be an awkward situation. The process was very efficient: I was with Sergei for about 20 minutes, he sent me the raw images that night and I picked my favorite the following morning, and by the day after that he sent me the retouched version that I could drop into my LinkedIn profile. About 48 hours from start to finish. Cost $100. (Note that he prefers PayPal, so if possible, be prepared to pay that way.) I would happily use Sergei again and would not hesitate to recommend him.

I was…read moredoomscrolling through Facebook wedding group comments and fell in love with the pictures from his portfolio. We had a quick call going through the process and signed a contract shortly after; everything was very straight forward and efficient. Couple days beforehand we touched base again on the details of that day and he made us feel very confident going forward. My husband and I are total noobs and have no idea how to pose or look not awkward in photos. Heech was very helpful in showing us how to pose and present ourselves for the specific photos. He's got a great vision board in his head so just follow his guidelines and you'll end up with great photos. He was very patient with us while we were in the process of getting ready and running into hiccups. At the venue, he knew what and when to capture in the important moments. His turn around time was fast and was communicative through the whole process. We love the way the pictures turned out, and it truly matched the aesthetic I had in mind. I wish we had hired him for our courthouse ceremony too!
