Due to the pandemic I was not able to complete maternity pictures or newborn pictures with our…read morefirst born child. It was important for us to have this moment of a new family of three captured. When the weather became warm, I was avidly looking for a photographer to do outdoor family photos with. I came across Da and was able to book an appointment with ease. I explained to Da what I was looking for and he immediately grasped the concept. What I appreciate most about Da was his patience with us and our daughter. He was able to capture such candid moments! He gave us good pointers on how to pose and where to stand for the best lighting. He made us feel comfortable and made our shoot fun! Da followed all guidelines with social distancing and wearing a mask. He is professional, patient, and personable. I am really happy with how our photos turned out. I would highly recommend working with Da! Thank you for capturing this special moment for us as a family of three!

Da was professional and made the process very comfortable and enjoyable…read more We couldn't decide on which location in SF we wanted. Da was very helpful by both suggesting locations and some pro and cons of each location. After selecting a location, we set a time and finalized the terms. He asks for a small initial deposit, but that's very reasonable. He also has great prices for the quality of work he does. Upon meeting up, we were given quick tips on how to pose/move throughout the session. We're both noobs when it comes to posing and he made it feel natural. We couldn't have been happier with how the the pictures turned out! Highly recommended.

Jeremy has a calming presence and an encouraging tone that helps soothe the photography nerves. He also has a special eye for capturing the essence of his subjects. We really felt as though he captured how we looked and how we felt on our special day. Not only did he help us create memories of our love on our wedding day, he also went above and beyond to capture the special moments thought the day of all of our guests, moments that we would not have been able to witness had it not been for his eye. We are so thankful for Jeremy's expertise and cannot recommend him enough for events that you hope to capture genuinely and hold close forever.

Jeremy was our wedding photographer for our June 2018 wedding at the Hollins House in Santa Cruz…read more Hiring a photographer was the next thing on the list after we finally locked down a venue and we're so glad we hired Jeremy for our big day. After contacting Jeremy via email, we had our first meeting via Skype and he was so patient with all our questions -- from the smallest details of the day of to us being nervous about being in front of the camera for the first time. Pricing was up front and fair and he was super flexible as we threw in an engagement shoot and changed our package a couple times leading up to the big day. Jeremy took our engagement photos in San Francisco and put us at ease, he's super friendly and chill and we had a blast hopping around to different locations for the shoot. For the wedding day, Jeremy was professional and incredibly helpful -- he helped us stay on schedule, was the last minute bow-tie hero of the ceremony, and really accommodating as he navigated the demands of the family (thank you!). We loved Jeremy's photography style when we first saw his photographs and we're so glad we chose Still Music to document all our memories of our wedding.

How fortunate I was to find Brian McFadden! He photographed my wedding and did an awesome job!…read more Brian has been in the business for a long time, so he knows what he is doing and you don't have to worry about directing him on your wedding day. He understands positioning of those in your photos and how the lighting affects how your photo will come out. No fumbling around trying to get it right. Totally professional!! And since he is a Santa Cruz local, he is familiar with the area and commonly used wedding vendors. He's also very professional and warm. As is the case with planning a wedding, you want to be comfortable with your wedding planning "team members", as you will be spending time with them before the wedding as you plan things out. Brian welcomes your ideas and input and knows all the right questions to ask with regards to your ceremony, which was a blessing because there were several things I had not thought about and I was glad he asked! Our wedding photos came out better than I could have imagined! Not only would I suggest that my friends use him for any wedding photography they may need, I would also suggest him to anyone in need of wedding or family photography. Amazing photos without breaking the bank!

His pricing was reasonable even including the travel fee.

Sam was outstanding and we LOVE our wedding photos!…read more We hired Filmman video for our wedding video and hired Sam to do our wedding photography. Sam was very punctual, easy going, creative and perfected the shots he did. Sam worked with my two flower girls to get some super cute shots with them with my wedding dress and shoes while i was getting ready. He did great working with trying to get my 3 year old niece to participate in the photos. Sam hustled all day long with carrying all of his equipment and setting up flashbulbs for the reception. Sam and Filmman just accented each others amazing work and they always seemed to be on the same page which we totally appreciated. We got our wedding pictures back in about a month which was much faster than I anticipated. The quality of the pictures were just superb! Sam creativity and experience shined through in the pictures, we just love them. I would highly recommend Lotus Production Photography to anyone! Thanks again for all your hard work Sam!

On the day of the shoot, he came on time and made the effort to get to know us before we started. I thought it was really nice of him to do that because for a couple like us, posing for the camera can be really awkward. He was professional, friendly and so easy to work with. He made sure we felt comfortable and more importantly, that we had fun. Within 24 hours he sent us select raw photos and they are all beautiful. I can't wait to see the edited ones in a few days! I'm sure they will not disappoint. Thanks again, Taghi! Highly recommended. I would give him 6 stars if I could.

Tom did an AMAZING job photographing our wedding in August. I first heard of Tom through browsing…read morethrough wedding websites and sample photos at various venues around the bay area. I was immediately drawn to his style of photography. It so happened that he was also a preferred photographer at our venue of choice. I took this as a sign that he was meant to be our photographer. When my husband and I first met Tom, we were immediately captured by his cheerful personality, positive attitude and his passion for photography. He was also extremely flexible throughout the process and was happy to work within our budget. During our engagement photoshoot Tom got us through everything very smoothly and he knew exactly what we was doing (even in 100+ degree weather that day!). On the day of the wedding he was timely and very accommodating to our videographers (we asked four of our friends to do this, so they were not at all professional). Being a preferred photographer for our venue, he knew the staff, was familiar with the timing/flow of events and knew the best places for photos. When it came down to designing our wedding album, Tom included 2 extra pages for free since he wanted to fit as much of my favorite photos as possible. Overall, we really enjoyed working with Tom and couldn't have asked for a better, more talented photographer. Thank you, Tom!!

When he showed up to photograph our sons over-the-top 1st birthday party, we surprised him with a last minute surprise special event that would also be happening that day... our wedding! We decided to make the party a double-feature because so many of our family and friends were traveling far to attend the party, we figured why not take the opportunity and surprise everyone by finally tying the knot too. It was perfect and Tom did a fabulous job capturing the exciting event! All the photos turned out beautifully and were available to us earlier than expected.
