He took a handful of indoor and outdoor shots, allowed me to select my favorite photos and edited them all within 24 hours!! I told him I never knew I could look like this!! Lol. Thanks Alan! Fast, reliable and professional. Highly recommend!

If you're looking for headshots, look no further…read more Affordable, friendly, fast, and professional. I was looking for an affordable photographer to help me get my headshot situation squared away for work. I looked at other places and it was double/triple what Alan charged. I'm starting out in my career so that was greatly appreciated. Location: Alan is able to pass on affordability because he has an at-home studio. His set-up is professional and he offers different scenic backdrops if needed. Payment: I think cash is king for small businesses. I was able to book an appointment and get photos taken in under 2 days. Everything was ready to go when I got there.

The photographer and makeup artist were incredibly professional. They listened to every detail I wanted and brought my vision to life perfectly. From the makeup and hair to the overall styling, everything was done with such care and precision. Shooting at my university made it even more special, and the final photos were exactly what I had imagined. I highly recommend Mr. Fu if you're looking for the perfect pre-wedding shoot here!

I chose Unique because they were one of the few in the area to offer an all-inclusive package. My…read morepackage included dress and jewelry rental, hair and makeup for the couple, the photoshoot, all raw digital images, 20 edited photos, and a printed canvas. The hair and makeup artist was able to follow my vague instructions and helped customized my overall look, including jewelry choices. She also stayed throughout the shoot for touch-ups, and even helped with posing. Sam's knows what angles to shoot and which lighting works. He guided us through the poses and was able to wrap up our shoot earlier than estimated even though I usually find myself very awkward in front of the camera. I also appreciated that they provide all of the digital files, including the 500+ raw ones. When I wasn't a fan of the initial editing style, Sam was very receptive to my feedback and revised the photos quickly. The reason for 4 stars is the communication. During the consultation, I was hoping for more guidance on ideas since I didn't have a clear vision. I was just shown his portfolio on his tablet and quietly scrolled in front of him. After the shoot, I had to follow up for updates on my raw and edited photos. Only after I reached out first did he respond immediately.

Janice has now captured newborn photos of both my daughters, and choosing her both times was a…read moreno-brainer. Two years apart, and both sessions were equally beautiful, fun, and everything I could have hoped for. What sets Janice apart isn't just her incredible eye for a photo - it's how genuinely present and thoughtful she is with my whole family. She was extremely patient and gentle with my newborn, and made my two year old feel completely at ease by leaning right into all the toys she kept eagerly showing off. Watching that connection unfold was honestly one of my favorite parts of the session. She even welcomed our two dogs without missing a beat! Having everything done in the comfort of my own home made it that much more special, personal, and stress-free. We absolutely loved having these milestone moments captured in our own space, surrounded by all the things that make our family ours. If you're looking for someone to document this fleeting, irreplaceable season of life with care, artistry, and a whole lot of heart, look no further than Chasing Hiromi. These are photos I will cherish forever. Thank you, Janice :)

On top of that, she even snuck my husband and me away for a few private photos, which I didn't expect but absolutely loved. Janice was wonderful at directing us without making anything feel stiff or awkward. She made the whole session feel easy and fun, and the kids stayed engaged the entire time (a small miracle). The photos turned out beautifully, and we genuinely enjoyed the process. Also, the turnaround time for delivery of photos was even faster than she estimated. We can't wait to work with her again and would recommend her to any family looking for someone patient, talented, and great with kids (and pets!).

I would like to continue our relationship with this studio located within our community and hope to see wedding pictures in the near future!

From the very beginning, they were fantastic communicators, helping me with everything from choosing the location to discussing the overall style of the shoot. On the day of the session, they were warm, funny, and made everyone feel completely at ease. They were the perfect team to capture our family's memories. It was especially helpful that they spoke both Cantonese and Mandarin, which made communicating with my parents-in-law so much easier. Even more impressively, they somehow managed to get my sleepy 9-month-old smiling and laughing throughout the session! And of course, the photos were absolutely stunning- the perfect finishing touch to an already wonderful experience. I couldn't be happier with how everything turned out and will definitely be booking Dave and Florence again. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for talented photographers who truly know how to make the experience enjoyable for the whole family.

Thank you guys so much! I'm excited to have these to show my daughter when she's older.

We are extremely happy with the service and product we received. Once our daughters are older, we'll be back for another shoot. Would highly recommend if you want high quality, aesthetic photos!
