Trifon is perfectly professional and patient. We loved working with him before, during, and after our wedding- Beforehand, he was flexible in timing and location for the engagement shoots and showed his expertise in using natural lighting. During the wedding, we had friends comment that they thought he was a relative or family friend because he was friendly to everyone and quickly picked up on who/what we might have wanted more pictures with/of - all with very little direction from us! After the wedding, Trifon got us our pictures in an incredibly timely manner - we were so surprised! Overall, we were blessed to have 2 ceremonies (one in the USA and one in the Philippines). The photographer in the Philippines was all about posing and, while we had fun with the style that was more of a photo shoot and even some borderline boudoir style shots, that photographer would take 5 minutes to take one picture. Trifon has a more candid style, allowing more natural photos like of people hugging or laughing. He also blended seamlessly, not getting into the way of other people watching what was going on and not interrupting other people taking inferior pictures on their phones. Take your pic! read more

I booked an appointment with Trifon in order to get a Professional headshot along with a US visa photo. He was incredibly patient and spent time adjusting the lights until he was satisfied and took some really awesome photos. He even read the US Visa photo spec (upon request) and made necessary adjustments to get the correct shot. In the end, I converted my appointment to family session-ish and took 10 pictures since I had brought multiple outfits. He sent me proof copies of the session the same day and when I selected the one's I wanted, he got back to me the next day itself. Incredibly efficient, timely and patience = Tirfon. I highly recommend Trifon to anyone looking to take a professional photo. read more

In a nutshell, if you couldn't already gather from my five-star rating, Trifon was absolutely spectacular! My mom hired Trifon to celebrate my graduation from Georgetown and my brother's graduation from San Jose State University. He was super attentive and took pictures of my family before the party actually began and of each and every guest as they walked through the door. He also got some action shots of us while we were cutting the cake and on the dance floor celebrating with everyone in attendance. After the party was over, Trifon shared his online portfolio with my mom and made sure to keep reminding her when new photos were uploaded to his website so we could view them (there were hundreds and all of them were top-notch quality). Please note: My mom says she wants to hire him for my engagement photos...mind you I'm not even dating anyone right now. So you know that he impressed her :] read more

Trifon provided the experience I was hoping for with our children's headshot. He was warm, kind, hones, and simply brilliant in taking photographs. He captured the best photos of our children, their personalities, their wild sides, their soft sides, and together they were playing and shooting. We've never had so many amazing shots from a photographer. Trifon was very helpful before the session to make sure we were comfortable and so good about helping up pick the right photos and creat combinations of photos afterwards. Trifon will be our one and only photographer ! read more

Excellent!!! Trifon is wonderful to work with. He is professional, timely, flexible and patient. His work is also top notch! I would highly recommend! read more

Professional, friendly and great to work with! We booked Trifon for a photo shoot at Vasona Park. We were not sure of a location and he helped us research several places which was very nice of him. He made us very comfortable and worked hard to ensure all the clicks were captured well. He sent us the links to all the photographs very quickly and all photos turned out to be excellent I highly recommend Trifon. Thank You! read more

I had booked Trifon for an engagement photo session by the Bay Bridge in SF, and am incredibly happy with the professionalism, enthusiasm and friendliness he displayed while taking pictures of our "surprise" event. After the photoshoot, he promptly sent us a beautiful leather cover (previously arranged upon) with a couple of cover photographs (which we chose) and the DVD of the images. He is a wonderful photographer and I wholeheartedly recommend him for your photoshoots! read more

Trifon is very professional and comfortable to work with. We invited him to take photos of our wedding ceremony and he showed up early to start preparation. It was a cloudy day but the photos look very good. We are very glad that we have him as our photographer. He is a wonderful photographer and I highly recommend him for any event. read more

Ethical, Professional, Positive and Genuine We worked and will continue to work with Trifon Anguelov on many different occasions. Not only are the images great, the process of work and the collaboration with the photographer leaves a long lasting positive impression. Thank you! read more

We used Trifon for our Sept. 2015 wedding and he was unbelievably great. He does a lot of prep work and it pays off. He did all of the poses we asked for, he was very accommodating to our family and guests, and he made sure to capture everything. We requested a "candid-shot" style rather than posed pictures and he was very effective at blending into the background and knowing when to capture a moment. Our pictures turned out perfect! PS: Our wedding planner met with him a few weeks before the wedding and let him know we wouldn't need his services for as long as originally was thought. Trifon agreed to the change without any problem and adjusted our price. He's professional to the highest degree. read more

Trifon was awesome. He stayed past his closing time and got excellent shots of mine when I needed them urgently. He clicked over 30 poses, followed up with me in a couple hours with the pictures. Then, I was able to select the ones I wanted and he spent a lot of time touching them up and making them look real good. I am very pleased with his work and I highly recommend him for portraits and any photography needs. I also researched his work and have been wow'ed by some of the natural everyday pictures he has taken. Thanks Trifon! read more

Highly recommended! Wonderful guy, beautiful pictures and delivered on time! What else I could ask for?! Trifon arrived on time even though there was a heavy rain on that day and captured all the beautiful moments of my daughter's birthday. Thanks for the great work Trifon read more

We had a very good experience with Trifon for our baby shower event photography. He was on-time, professional, and patient as we were trying different poses and taking pictures with different guests. His prices are reasonable and you get very good quality pictures for what you pay for. read more

I found Trifon after doing an internet search and coincidentally he lives around the corner from me. I chose to hire Trifon after looking at his website and reading his yelp reviews. I hosted a 50th birthday party in my backyard for over 100 people and I wanted candid shots taken throughout the night. Trifon did not disappoint, he showed up on time, managed to capture almost everyone at the party and he was not invasive at all. His photography captured the evening for sure and has provided me with a lifetime of great memories. I highly recommend him. read more

Trifon was a wonderful photographer for our Non-profit's Gala event! He came on time (Even earlier to set-up), was a professional throughout the event and worked with us as we were going through some minor hiccups. Contacting him was easy and you will always get a response. Very thankful that he worked with us on creating our custom banner for the event for our printer to print. The edits that he did on our photos was lovely. Also, getting your thumb-drive of photos in the mail comes in cute packaging! Would highly recommend Trifon to capture memories for your next event! read more

Trifon was amazing to work with! He captured our special day beautifully and we can now relive our happiest day each time we look at our pictures. Few things to note about Trifon - He was always available to take calls and meet in-person - He made us feel relaxed. My (now) husband isn't the most person photogenic but he made us feel comfortable and be ourselves - He considers everything before taking photos. From composition to the background to lighting - He is professional and all of the pictures he took of us were absolutely stunning. We also got the photos after a week of our wedding! read more

We had a outdoor maternity shoot with Trifon and he did a fantastic job. He was professional throughout the event and captured great pictures of me and my family. We would definitely recommend him. read more

I had a fun outdoorsy shoot with Trifon in SJ about a month ago and he was very pleasant to work with. He knows the technicalities of how the lighting should be and was very deliberate about where we positioned the shoot. He does not pressure you to pose a certain way and allows you to be yourself, but with a little guidance for great quality photographs. I liked his editing and I would definitely recommend him for a nice individual or a family shoot. He is not intimidating in anyway and makes you feel at ease. Oh, and be ready to smile! Because if there is anything he does tell you to do, it is to SMILE :) read more

Fantastic photographer, I would highly recommend! He was professional and delivered so many beautiful photos of our wedding. He worked with my husband and I to find out exactly the style we wanted, and delivered in every way. He captured so many great moments and never was in the way. He delivered the photos promptly and stayed in contact with us to make sure we were happy. After seeing our photos, many of our friends have asked who we used. I loved that we got a nice mix of candid moments, as well as some posed photos. One thing I would highly recommend, we did our portraits and posed shots before the ceremony. This allowed us time to be present for the reception and to just enjoy the day. We're a little non-traditional, so we did the posed photos a couple of weeks before the wedding. Even though this isn't the norm. Trifon worked with us so we got exactly what we wanted. He even gave us some digital copies before hand, so I framed some and had them at the reception. So many people commented on how cool that was. I would highly recommend this photographer, he delivered both portrait/posed style photos, as well as more editorial/candid photos. read more

Trifon is amazing! Our other photographer for my sister's wedding bailed on us the day of the wedding. I called Trifon the morning of the wedding and he came to the rescue. He was very professional! My Sister had a traditional Tongan wedding and I was very impressed that Trifon did research on Tongan weddings to prep himself for the day. He knows exactly what he is doing and is very patient to work with. He gets you the images of the event in a very timely manner. Geez other photographers we've worked with in the past took over a month to get our images. But Trifon is very hardworking and passionate about what he does so we got our photos earlier than expected. He blew us away with his professionalism, patience, amazing shots and hardwork And I mean HARDWORK he worked hard to get amazing shots at the wedding! So worth it. Will keep him as our family photographer. You will love him! read more

We loved working with Trifon! From the beginning when I called for info to planning the photoshoot, to the actual shoot, to post production everything was great and ran smoothly!

Trifon was the only photographer who returned my call when I was seeking one to come on Christmas Day. He gave us good advice on being ready, came at the time promised; took many different pictures, and had them ready for us to view that same evening. When we made up our minds about eh pictures we wanted he had those ready for us in a timely fashion. I believe his prices were fair and we were very pleased with his work. I happily recommend him. read more

Trifon is a very friendly guy!. He has good knowledge of photography and he will take care of you well. He is very reasonable too!

We hired Trifon for our corporate holiday party and he did a fabulous job. I provided very little direction, asking only for candid shots and maybe some formal photos as requested by our guests. The photos he took are gorgeous and he was incredibly easy to work with throughout. I couldn't be happier with his work. read more

I booked Trifon for a prom photography shoot at Stanford and I was shocked by the quality of the photos, and by Trifon's speed and reliability. From the moment you begin contacting him, you will realize how professional his service is. We received all our photos the next day, and he always answered his phone and emails incredibly quickly during the whole process (including the booking). He captured incredible shots from a unique perspective, and made his artistic visions come to life in his photos. He is both talented and extremely knowledgable when it comes to photography, and acts as a guide to bring out the best poses and shots. We were running really late (trying to find parking) and he did not cut our time short or make us feel bad in any way for this. My experience was great, and I would gladly book him again for any event. There is a reason all his reviews are five stars, and that reason is his outstanding service and skill. read more

Trifon recently captured the memories of our wedding and we were very pleased with all of the pictures as well the as the professionalism of Trifon. He was always very easy to get into contact with, always willing to answer any questions and help in any way possible. During the event he was very professional and listened to any suggestions we had as well as let us enjoy our day with amazing candid photos.

I love that all the photos are available on his website and that we are sent every photo through a flash drive. read more

I called Trifon for a last minute family photo shoot. He accommodated my request on a very short notice. On the day of the shoot we got hit with really bad weather and Trifon was very sweet about rescheduling even though he was already there. The next day we finally got out and after a wonderful shoot, he delivered truly beautiful pictures of my family. I recommend him hands down for clicking pictures of young kids and working to make them comfortable. He was very fast with the entire process of sending out images for review, post-processing the selected pictures and posting them online for our family. Thanks Trifon :). read more

Trifon is a professional, punctual, and amazing photographer. I had the pleasure of working with him as a fellow photographer and as an event producer. He provided pictures promptly and with quality at my shows. He has a great eye for details and versatility in lighting. I definetly recommend trifon for photo shoots and events! -elyse akira read more

Trifon was a pleasure to work with. We did a family session (with our three month old!) and he was amazing. He worked with us to make sure his photos not only brought out the adorable nature of our daughter but that we looked good as well. I have never been as comfortable having my photos taken! He got the proofs back to us that day to look over and approve and then he edited them very fast and sent us beautiful photos that will mean the world to us for years to come read more

We recently had Trifon capture our family pictures because he did such a fantastic job at our wedding a few years ago. As usual, Trifon went above and beyond to make sure that our photos looked great and were delivered to us incredibly quickly. I will continue to go back to Trifon for our photo needs, he always does such an amazing job. His ability to capture great lighting in difficult outdoor shots is amazing. Even the delivery of our photos was in a beautiful case--it is very clear that Trifon takes pride in his work. We had recently relocated to the midwest but waited until we came to visit our family in the Bay Area just to make sure we could have Trifon take our photos. I can't say enough good things about his work! read more

I´m super happy with the photo shoot I had with Trifon. He was able to step in fast something that was needed as a newspaper needed the photos fast. Everything was delivered on time! He was also very flexible with what type of photos and location and the whole session was perfect. I´m super happy with the photos and how they look and highly recommend this one. read more

I had a fairy themed outdoor photoshoot with Trifon and it was great! He is a very skilled photographer and edited the pictures quickly, I felt very comfortable shooting with him.

We really appreciate the outstanding work Trifon provided for our wedding on July 11th at Stanford Memorial Church. We love all the photos he took. He is really a professional, experienced and easy going photographer. Through email and in-person communications, Trifon well understood the photo style we like and the rules enforced by Stanford Memorial Church. Besides, he patiently asked us if there's any special events before and after the wedding that should be taken. On the wedding day, he was very enthusiastic and attentive. He set up cameras in different positions and made sure photos are taken just from the ideal angles. After the wedding, he actively help organize and take pictures of us with different group of our guests. We learn different poses from him. We feel lucky we had him as our photographer and we would highly recommend his work and service to all. read more

Such a great photographer! He is so patient and is also so very helpful. What ever you want or think of, heĺl make it happen! The pictures turned out so beautifully. Loved it. At first I thought you were a bit intimidating, based off from far, but it turned out not! It's very easy talking to him and getting comfortable with what youŕe surrounded with, when he's there to direct. Thank you! (: Hopefully we can work with one another again. I had fun. read more

It's a pleasure working with Trifon , he always reaches before time for set up and being familiar with the venue . He covered two baby shower events for me so far and both were captured perfectly ..He is very polite and considerate .. Most importantly he knows his work well. I will be using his service for any future photography needs . Thanks Trifon for the beautiful pictures . read more

I contacted Trifon a few months ago for my family photo shoot. He was very cooperative in accommodating our schedule for the appointment. I was not sure how will it go because my elder son is camera shy and doesn't like to get his pictures taken. But I like to get a family photo shoot done every year to capture their growing age. Even though my son was not cooperating, Trifon handled him pretty well.Once we got the pictures, I was pleasantly surprised to see the quality of the pictures. It was hard to tell that our son was giving us a hard time. All the pictures came out very nice. He even took a few solo of my kids. read more

I'm so glad I found Trifon on Yelp! He was responsive, on time and flexible. We initially agreed for 2 hours from 11 AM - 1 PM but as unpredictable as Indian engagement ceremonies can go, we requested him to come half hour early and he also stayed back an extra hour and half to cover everything. We are grateful to him for that, and hope he didn't feel overwhelmed with our guests and the "chaos." He was very professional and friendly, as the other reviews mentioned. He promised us that we'd get our pictures in a week and we got it within 5 days! I'm very happy with his service and would highly recommend him! read more

We hired Trifon to take photos at our son's 3rd birthday party. He showed up early and was super-professional. His shots were great and included some artsy ones, such as someone jumping into the pool mid-air and some interesting food shots. Really happy with the service/product. Highly recommend. read more

Trifon has a great eye for lighting and locations. His advice on how to pose elevate the pictures. I would highly recommend him.
