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!

She worked her magic, helping him laugh, engage, and genuinely smile and the photos she captured were absolutely stunning!

Laura has an incredible gift for capturing authentic, joyful moments, and we will only use her for family photos from now on.

We had such an amazing experience for our first family photoshoot. Sasha not only is an amazing…read morephotographer, but her kid corralling skills are unmatched. I was worried that it wouldn't be possible to get four young children to all look at the camera and smile at the same time, but Sasha is a super hero. She got all four wild children to not only smile and pose, but also to have fun! We had a large group of ten and Sasha was able to capture great group shots, as well as smaller family shots, and solo kid shots. The pictures came out so beautiful! We will definitely be making this an annual family photo tradition!

James is the best! If you want to enjoy your big day stress free, choose James. If you want to…read morecapture every important moment of your big day, hire James. If you want to re-live your big day over and over again years later, James is your guy! My wife and I had never done a professional photoshoot. Neither of us are particularly comfortable in front of the camera. After interviewing 5 different photographers, we knew from our first conversation that James was the one. He is incredibly friendly, easy going, and knowledgeable. We agreed to do an engagement session, 1 location for 90mins to see if we'd be comfortable working with James. It couldn't have gone better. Initially, we were a bit stiff, but James gave us tips on how to act naturally, suggested poses and hand positions that made us feel and look relaxed. The time flew by and we actually ended up going to a second location with a wardrobe change. Overall, it was about 2 hours. James did not mind at all. In fact, he probably could've gone longer if the sun hadn't set on us! Our photos were edited and received in less than 2 weeks! James was kind enough to print a large poster and sign that shipped to our house in just a few days. He price matched any package/prints from other photographers. Having gone through our engagement session seamlessly, we hired James to shoot our wedding as well. He and an assistant were on site for 10 hours, tending to our every need and keeping us on our timeline. After our planned family/wedding party photos, we hardly even noticed them working as we proceeded with wedding events. After the wedding, we received many compliments on how great James was and several guests asked for his contact information. Within a couple of days, we received a preview of about 20 photos highlighting our big day. We were thrilled! Every important moment was captured so elegantly! The full magazine of photos was available for download in about 1 month. James then worked with us to print a high quality photo book for our coffee table. You can't go wrong with James--his high quality work and work ethic speak for themselves. There is no substitute for how easy and stress free he made us feel, so that we could truly enjoy ourselves knowing that he would capture every single moment candidly. Do not hesitate to hire James, it will be the best decision you will ever make.
