We had the best experience with Joey Ikemoto Photography for our wedding this October 2025! My…read morehusband and I got married at Neighborhood Church and celebrated our reception at Blue Water Grill. Jonathan and Olivia captured beautiful memories of our special day for us. From the start, they were incredibly detail-oriented. They made sure every shot, angle, and lighting choice was just right. They gave us wonderful guidance throughout the day, helping us feel comfortable and natural in front of the camera. Beyond their photography talent, they were both so pleasant, professional and genuinely fun to be around. They made the entire photography experience even more enjoyable. The photos turned out absolutely stunning and truly reflect the joy and emotion of our day. Joey Ikemoto Photography is a South Bay classic for a reason; they continue to deliver amazing work and timeless memories. We couldn't recommend them more.

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!

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.

It was such a challenge for me to find the right photographer for our wedding, since my dad is a photographer..and we were so relieved when we (really my mom!) found Mikal's artistry on Instagram. It's not easy to find someone who is so passionate about their craft in the wedding industry... Fast forward to now, thanks to Mikal, my husband and I now have thee most cherished and beautiful photos to look back on thanks to his commitment to his craft and clients. We also got our photos in a reasonable amount of time after the wedding which we certainly appreciated. We were so lucky to have him as our photographer for our special day!!!
