I got married on July 21, 2018 at Pageo Lavender Farm in Turlock. After booking our venue in April…read more2017, my next priority was to find an amazing photographer who could perfectly capture the emotions throughout our wedding day for my husband and I to remember forever. I researched for hours and started emailing the list of potential photographers I had gathered for quotes and more information. Cori responded quickly, was super friendly and reasonably priced. She offered to meet us in person for a free consultation so we could get to know each other more and show us samples of her work. I'm very much an organizer and planner, so when we met Cori and she pulled out some checklists and worksheets to help her keep track of our wishes and also educate us on how she works, I was smitten! A couple months later, we had our engagement photo session with Cori at Sutro Baths in San Francisco. Cori is so nice and personable - my husband and I are shy in front of the camera and she made us feel comfortable right away. A couple weeks later we received an online gallery of our pictures and were in love! Cori was able to capture our happiness and silliness towards each other perfectly in each picture. Leading up to the wedding day, Cori helped me put together a day-of timeline that incorporated a few elements we had to have - a first look, sunset photos, and a first dance with guests holding sparklers. On the wedding day, Cori arrived at the agreed upon time. Everyone liked her right away and she worked very well with our videographer. About 4 weeks later, we received an online gallery with our pictures. I am thrilled with how each one looks and love Cori's style that fit so well with our venue. I will definitely reach out to Cori again for anniversary, family and maternity pictures when those times come in the future!

Before I even knew Cori was a preferred vendor for our wedding venue, we found her website. Both my…read morehusband and I were very picky about a photographer. We loved her photos and the coloring. Somehow, all of her photos sort of look like they're captured on an overcast day, which I love. We first took our engagement photos and we had both never taken photos like that before so I was pretty nervous and shy at first. She helped loosen us up and we loved a lot of the images from that day! We then really looked forward to our wedding day photos. We not only enjoy our photos of ourselves and our guests, we love the detail shots as well. We'd definitely recommend Cori for any occasion. We hope to have her capture our family photos down the line!

Took about 6 weeks, but the camera came back looking and working perfectly. Not particularly inexpensive, but worth it to get someone with the experience and patience to do it right.

I wish I could understand what's going on with Scott but since he won't respond to my messages,…read moreI'll have to share my most recent experience with him. I found him late in 2024. You can read my review on that encounter in my last review for him. I closed out that review by stating that I was so impressed, that I left a 24-105mm f/4.0L for him to look at. At this point, I don't even remember what was wrong with it. He worked on the lens and got it back into working condition and called me. It's 71 miles from my house to his shop. I made the drive down and in the course of conversation, Scott said that he would be more than happy to sell it for me and could get up to $400 for the lens. That particular lens was the first lens that I bought for my Canon 5D. It was my only lens for at least five years. Needless to say, I did everything with it. When I returned to my local fire department as a volunteer photographer, I added a few more lenses to my arsenal included the Mark II version of the same lens. Since I didn't need the one Scott had just repaired, I asked him to sell it for me. I didn't hear from Scott for quite a while, but the lens wasn't my priority. I do a lot of volunteer work, and I had enough equipment to keep working. I called him in April of 2025 to check status, and it hadn't sold yet. We spoke briefly about lowering the price. I told him I would take $300. I didn't hear from Scott again until August when he said he had a buyer for $275. I told him that $300 was the price that we had agreed on and he said that he would "make up the difference". I didn't fall off from the turnip truck just yesterday. I know that the difference of whatever he sold it for and what I got would be his profit. But I also know that when you are selling something on consignment, you have no right to arbitrarily lower the price without the owner's permission. His "making up the difference" meant that he made less profit. He asked when I would be driving down to pick up the check. I asked Scott to simply mail it to me. Every time, I've visited him at his place of business, I've had to call to let him know when I was close and sometimes, he wouldn't be there. I know as a single person business operation, clients need your time, meetings run long, photoshoots take longer than expected. I figured getting a check by mail would be easier for both of us. In October of 2025, I called for and left a message for an update. January 30th of this year, I called and Scott told me that I should have received the check by now and that he would have to check with his bookkeeper to find out what happened to the check. Yesterday, 3/23, left a message letting him know how disappointed I was with his lack of communication. And so here I am, dropping my five-star rating for him to one-star. Next will be the Better Business Bureau. I may never see my $300 again but I don't want to see other hard-working photographers get taken for a ride.

EXCUSE ME $2000 should more than cover her digital copies a couple printed and an album. Where do you think you work Jennifer, Beverly Hills?! You aren't WORTH that much.

The back story to meeting Nicky was because our original photographer decided to not do the shoot. He picked us up, made us super comfortable, communicated non stop with us. I am happy that the "runaway photographer" happened because I was able to meet an amazing photographer! We will become regular family of his.
