    We had an excellent experience working with Yang and his team for our wedding. We reached out about 4 months before our wedding and luckily he was still available. We had first found Yang through Instagram but our videographer also recommended him as they had worked together on a previous wedding. We are a relaxed and laid back couple and were looking for vendors that would fit our energy. From our first meeting with Yang he was very professional and had a great presentation about his services and the philosophy behind his work. We were extremely happy with his offerings and we thought he would be a great match for our day. Recently Yang has just delivered our photos, 3 weeks after our wedding and we are in love. Yang and his team were able to capture exactly what we wanted. We also love the ability to share our photos with our loved ones through the easy online portal gallery he created. Yang was awesome in directing us and choosing beautiful background settings. We can't recommend Yang enough and I would encourage anyone who is thinking of working with him to sit down and have a conversation. He is such a nice guy and will help preserve your memories forever!

    Could not have asked for a better photographer! During the wedding planning process I was extremely lucky to come across Yang and his work. I was initially a little skeptical on pricing after weighing the market and being shocked with some of the rates of most of these photographers but after consulting with Yang over the phone I felt that the quality of work, everything he was offering and the professionalism he brought to the table, This was the best photographer for my wife and I. After working out the details of the contract and signing it. We had a couple of phone appointments where he got to know us and wanted to hear our story. We discussed our vision as well as our game plan for the big day. Yang was very receptive to what our style was and really let us do our thing while he contributed his thoughts and ideas. We chose to have Yang take our engagement photos leading up to the wedding and we both felt this was a great idea as we were able to work together a little and develop a little chemistry. Yang was very quick to give photos to us as well. It was only the next day that Yang shared a photo with us from our engagement session and it was so much fun getting pics at the same time he was editing. For our wedding day, Yang was on top of our schedule and was kept us on track with our timeline. He really took control of things all along getting amazing shots of us for our 1st look and bridal part shots. Before the actual wedding started, He captured shots of our venue getting every little detail from pics of our food menu and signage to pics of our smiling guest entering the venue. Throughout the night Yang worked extremely hard to make sure he captured everything we wanted and more. His turnaround time for photos were so fast and we were both so happy going through all the photos. Yang captured the memories from that night that we will cherish forever. Whether it be for your big day or for something small. Yang does an excellent job of pulling out your most joyous moments and sealing them permanently into a photo. Just consider that the person you hire to take your photos is going to hold the responsibility of capturing a moment you want to hold onto forever. Yang easily captured the best moment of mine and my wife's life and we could not be happier with the final product! Thank you Yang for doing an amazing job and we are so excited to have you capture more life moments for us when those times come!

    We actually ended up hiring Yang when our first photography vendor canceled on us. We found Yang on Instagram and what drew us to him was his focus on storytelling and connecting with his clients. We were so relieved to find out he was available for our wedding date. Yang quickly scheduled a Zoom meeting with me and my then-fiance to learn more about our story and our expectations. He had a whole presentation planned and we were impressed by his preparedness and personable nature. We ended up canceling meetings with other potential photographers and booked with Yang. He scheduled an in-person meeting over dessert and got to know us better as a couple. We thought was such a nice gesture and really goes to show how much Yang tries to connect with his clients to deliver services that were personal to us. He connected with us again closer to the wedding helped us hash out a timeline with must-shots. On the day of, Yang was punctual, present, and collaborative. His team worked cohesively with the videographer (he recommended to us who was also amazing). We had a long 13 hour wedding day and Yang was there to capture all of the important moments. Not only that, he effectively managed navigating to 4 different locations, our 10-person bridal party, documenting moments with our 200 guests, and many other special requests all while keeping us on a strict timeline. He captured our cultural ceremony with knowledge as well as aspects of the wedding that were new to him, like our private first looks and vows with matched expertise. Yang gave awesome suggestions and was engaging to our wedding party and respectful to our family members. My husband and I are SO INCREDIBLY impressed with Yang's ability to connect to the essence of our relationship and capture it in his photography. I am confident to say his services was one of the best investments we made. He skillfully captured every emotion and translated our best selves into touching photos. Though I haven't seen all of the final products (he took over 3000 photos) the previews he provided us wowed not only us but our family and friends and other vendors! My husband and I cannot express enough of our gratitude to him for catching the moments we didn't see in person and memorializing our special day for years to come. We would recommend Yang as a photographer in a heartbeat!

    Yang is, simply put, an amazing photographer and we can't recommend him enough for your wedding and engagement photos! From the get go, we were immediately drawn to his style, how pretty and natural the photos are. During our first consultation, he was really engaging, prepared, and knowledgeable and also very understanding of what we were hoping for. We knew that he would execute our vision with his experience and skills! We started with engagement photos, which I highly recommend! When the spot we decided on was unexpectedly closed, Yang was quick to suggest a new place (Seal Cove), which we ended up loving even more! I was worried about being self conscious but he really put us at ease, giving us pointers on how to pose naturally and making it fun. In just an hour, he fit in so many great shots. The pictures turned out beautifully and we were so excited to :) On the wedding day, Yang and his second shooter (Benji) were awesome to work with. They were so professional, efficient, and engaging and made the experience seamless. It gets hectic on the wedding day but Yang was there to get all the shots we wanted and then some in a really effective way and keep us on track. He also works really well with groups and was creative with how he positioned us (our bridal party had a blast!). He also is very aware of lighting and composition. I knew we were in good hands. Many of our family and bridal party told us how much they liked working with Yang and how impressed they were with the photos too! Yang was quick to turnaround our photos, which we really appreciated. We were seriously blown away! He captured all the moments and emotions so beautifully. Working with Yang was such a fun and easy experience (even for the slightly camera shy :) ). Thank you, Yang, for our amazing photographer for our special day!

    There's so much to say about Yang as a photographer, but the first thing that I want to mention (other than you should definitely book him) is how much my wife and I enjoyed working with him for both our engagement and wedding shoots. His photography speaks for itself, but my wife and I genuinely appreciated working with him and his wife as we prepared for our wedding. Yang cares immensely not only about the photos that he takes, but for you as a client. He's very approachable, easy to work with, and provides you with the information you didn't even know you needed. He gets to know you on a personal level so he can really capture what you are looking for, and he delivered not only amazing sets of photos but also an incredible experience. Our first shoot with him was our engagement shoot at City Hall, and we loved how they turned out. We had never done a photoshoot before, but Yang gave us tips and lots of ideas to put us at ease and produce beautiful photos. We have a number of photos from our engagement shoot hanging all over our house and can't wait to do the same with our wedding photos. Not only that, we felt very comfortable working with him and knew we were in good hands once our wedding came around. Despite our wedding being postponed 3 times due to the pandemic, Yang remained flexible, and we were so happy that he was ultimately available for our wedding. During the chaos of our wedding planning, we felt relieved to have Yang as our photographer as he continually stayed in touch with us, set up meetings as we neared the wedding and despite the potential for rain on our wedding day, he helped us with the timeline for the day, as well as best locations to take the photos we were looking for based on how the weather would play out. Ultimately, the rain stopped well before our wedding, which actually led to some gorgeous photos, but leading up to the wedding date, we felt at ease knowing that Yang would make whatever weather and lighting work to capture our moment. On the day of the wedding, he worked with us to get the exact shots we wanted, but also took control of our guests and family when necessary. This was especially important to us as I had previously attended other friends' weddings where the photographer seemed much less willing to lead the process which can lead to some hectic and rushed shots. He also worked well with our videographer and his second photographer (Chrystal) was also a pleasure to work with. Yang also speaks Cantonese which was great as he was able to easily communicate with my in-laws and make them feel at ease. Not only are his photos beautiful, but he turned them around so fast, and we couldn't be more pleased with how they turned out. He also dropped sneak peeks for us while we were waiting to get the full set via Instagram, and my wife absolutely loved them. His photos are unique but natural, both for candid and staged photos, and unlike some wedding photographers who tend to bleach out the colors too much in their editing, his photos came out with beautiful, natural lighting which we loved. His photos really tell the story and capture the raw emotions of your special day. He also just makes the shoot enjoyable and fun! He's truly a phenomenal photographer and went above and beyond all of our expectations. If you are looking for the photographer to capture your special day, trust all the glowing reviews and go with Yang. If you don't trust reviews from complete strangers, reach out to him and experience first-hand why he fully deserves all the positive reviews. He'll make you feel very comfortable from the first time you meet him and it's just one less thing you have to worry about knowing you have an amazing, incredibly professional photographer to capture your special moments. Thank you again Yang for a wonderful experience. It was a pleasure working with you, and we will definitely reach out to you for any future photoshoots to capture the most precious moments of our lives

    Yang is nothing short of best-in-class and fun, super professional photographer. He genuinely loves weddings and it was so important to me to find a photographer that actually loves what they do. Yang directed us to the best spot for sunset photos, herded cats (my family) for family portraits and instructed us on timeline to ensure we had fun at the wedding and also got the photos we wanted. Yang and his assistant took beautiful, candid and posed shots from multiple angles. Excuse my llack of my knowledge of photography, but I thought it was cool that Yang set up lighting around the church and venue to ensure the best photos possible. He and our videographer worked together to make sure there symmetry between the photo and video. He also took some super cool artistic shots of our rings! That was awesome! Yang is best of the best and doesn't fall short of excellence. His professional, friendly, and accommodating (especially during COVID) manner and talent meant so much to us and truly made our day more special. We have memories that we'll keep forever. He will give you a website that allows you to download and print your photos also! That was a biggie for us too. He's amazing, you won't regret booking him!

    We met Yang a long time ago when he was just starting out as a photographer. We've seen his photography profession grow and flourish since then, and so when it came time for our own engagement session, there was no question who we would choose to document such a special day. Especially as we were not planning on having a wedding photographer for the big day (Zoom wedding), our engagement photos have since become extra dear to our heart. We booked Yang in what was seemingly the worst timing ever - fires and smoke-clogged air, coronavirus, heat wave, etc. Despite it all, he remained super accommodating and flexible and rescheduled when our chosen spot was closed to the public for bad air quality. The day of, we were all suffering in 100 degree weather. He was so patient with us, waiting for us to wipe our sweaty brows or cool down in the shade, haha. His first order of business was to instruct us on basic posing techniques. We then proceeded to a few different spots for a wide variety of photo types: sunset, silhouette, posed and unposed, etc. We even requested some individual photos of myself and my S.O for posting to our wedding website. Yang is friendly, approachable and genuine. He responds quickly and professionally. When our session ended, the photo turn-around time was a mere few days! We could not have been more pleasantly surprised and delighted. My now-husband and I are not the type of people to like having our photos taken, but Yang made us feel very comfortable and natural in front of the camera. It definitely shows through in the final product! The photos are lovely and we've gotten lots of compliments already. Thank you so much for the photos, Yang! We love them!

    Short story: It was amazing working with Yang - He is dependable, personable, and most importantly, a great photographer. He captured the big moments and the details of our wedding that allow us to relive our special day! We can't thank him and his assistant enough for the great wedding tips and the wonderful photos! Highly recommend him for your special occasions! Full Experience: We found Yang through Instagram and loved his style - We appreciated how natural couples looked in his photos (no awkward poses!). Specifically, we loved the how the candid and posed photos conveyed so much joy and smiles! Prior to our wedding, Yang actually took the time to get to know over coffee, which we thought was really nice! As our wedding date neared, Yang also touched base with us to go over our timeline and the key moments that would important to capture. He also gave us great tidbits on how to capture the best photos during our ceremony! We fully appreciated his organization, communication, and preparation prior to our wedding. On the day of the wedding, Yang and his assistant (Benji) were both truly experts in their field! Yang was knowledgeable and knew exactly how to guide us and knew the best spots for photos. He was also able to take charge to give direction to my guests for the group photos, which I really appreciate! Lastly, Yang and Benji were both really personable and easy to work with throughout the day! They actually helped make the day run very smoothly! Yang also has a quick turnaround time for our photos. My husband and I absolutely love the photos that he took. It was such a nice balance between posed portraits with the guests, bridal party, and couple (my husband and I) and candid photos! In addition, we really really appreciate the detail shots that he and his assistant took throughout the venue (signage, florals, desserts). These little detail shots are just as important as capturing the big moment because it is an accumulation of everything that makes the day so special. We're so grateful for the whole collection that he put together! We're so glad to have had Yang photograph our wedding! We couldn't have asked for a better photographer to capture our special day!

    First off, huge huge thank you to Yang and his lovely associate Renee for capturing the irreplaceable moments on our special day. It meant a lot to have you there celebrating with us and being part of our family for the day, we certainly hope you enjoyed our company as much as we did! Our experience with Yang throughout the entire process was impeccable. We found Yang through Instagram, particularly his SF city hall/street shots and was captivated by his vision, style, and creativity. He was within our budget and had our date available so we booked quickly! Planning began with an initial Phone meeting to understand us as a couple and hear our vision, following a FTF meeting to lock the date. We had a pre-wedding meeting scheduled to develop the shotlist/timeline, which we were unable to make due to all the planning but was able to plan all through email/text. Next meeting was a phone introduction with our videographer and further development of the timeline/shotlist, whom he also worked seamlessly with day-of. As far as the day progressed, we were extremely happy with how Yang conducted us for the shotlist, not keeping us away from enjoying our event and guests (as if he were paparazzi while we went about our evening!). Working the timeline we developed, coordinating family pictures with our guests moved like clockwork as the DJ called tables to us as Yang patiently got the shots (and cellphone pics!). Emotions were high that evening and it was heartwarming to see that Yang and Renee were there to experience and participate in it all. Following our honeymoon, we arrived home to an extremely quick turnover of pictures via Website album (which we were able to share with friends and family). The output was so beautiful that our vendors used Yangs photos as a fine example of how to execute a traditional wedding. It has been a couple months now and we are still hearing compliments on how gorgeous everything turned out. Things are just settling down so next steps are to curate our photo set and use his other servicestrot an album/framed portraits. In short, we will definitely book again for future family pictures and look forward to posting on social media for the years to come! If you are looking for an artist who knows best business practices, communicates very well, and executes to a high level, then Yang is your man. There is so much more that I may have forgotten but I'll cut it here and let the pictures speak for themselves! R&C

    Yang was absolutely amazing. Our photos came out better than I could have ever asked! We hit some hiccups with lighting and wind for our first look, but Yang was able to make on the fly adjustments and all the photos came out beautifully. He captured the essence of our special day and made us feel incredibly comfortable taking photos. He was also super easy to get in touch with and was very responsive to all my questions!

    Krista C.

    Let's start with the most important part: book Yang for your wedding. Right this second. He was so incredibly wonderful to work with throughout the entire process. In the beginning Yang makes sure to really get to know you and what you are looking for. He scheduled a face-to-face conference call with us just as we were beginning to review his services to introduce himself and help answer all of our questions. We knew we wanted to work with Yang based on the quality of his photos and portfolios, but to connect with someone personally and see how kind, thoughtful, and professional he is really sealed the deal for us! I'm not sure if this is something most wedding vendors/photographers do, but Yang was the only vendor we had who made an effort for these very personable meetings, and they were so helpful and appreciated. As we moved through the process, we even met up in person once (pre-pandemic) to sign our contracts and make sure all our questions/planning needs were moving along. A few months before our wedding date, we realized we needed to postpone our event due to COVID, as so many experienced last year. We are so thankful that all of our vendors were so understanding. Yang was actually the first to reach out to us to ask how we were feeling, and to make sure he stayed in the loop about how we planned to move forward. Fast forward a year later and Yang stuck with us to our rescheduled event. We had one last video conference check-in to run through the game plan for the day, but through it all we felt so at ease in Yang's hands. His attention to detail and organization throughout our conversations left us feeling so solid about the photos for our day. We ended up with about 75 guests at our wedding at a large outdoor ranch venue in Livermore. Yang worked so incredibly hard for us as a single shooter for our wedding day, and captured every moment! It was a hot day with a lot of ground to cover, but Yang quickly familiarized himself with the venue and set up spaces for our wedding party and first look shots. I imagine trying to direct groups of family and friends on a wedding day is somewhat like herding cats (at least that's how I felt at times!) but Yang kept the day so fun and easy going, all while helping us keep to a timeline and ensuring everyone had tips on the best ways to pose. Throughout the wedding, Yang snuck us away from the crowds a few times to get some really unique shots in various places around the venue. The pictures from these are some of my favorites, and during the wedding felt extra special to have a moment with eachother as newlyweds, and to soak in all the magic going on around us. Even before we received the full photos, our friends and family raved about how wonderful Yang was on the wedding day. We've had several people comment on how impressed they were at his techniques to ensure he got the important shots (again, he was a solo photographer for our day!). For example, when looking back through the photos my husband and I were surprised to see how close in Yang got to the exchange of rings or during our first dance. We even wondered if he brought a bigger lens to get that close-up shot from afar because we didn't even notice him! Yang got in where he needed to for the best photos from the most important moments, and then was out of sight! His stealthy moves captured such wonderful memories for us, and all the while we were oblivious and just in the moment of the day. We were not expecting them so quickly, but Yang turned around our photos two weeks after our event, and shared many sneak peek pictures along the way on his Instagram. He even made us a video slideshow with our first dance song after one week to tide us over. It was such a thoughtful touch! Bottom line, Yang has our highest recommendation. Go book him now before he books up!! Thank you for everything, Yang!

    Yang is amazing. If you're looking for a punctual, professional, humorous, dedicated, thoughtful, and patient person .... look no further (well it would look like I'm describing the ideal husband but actually it's the ideal photographer)! We booked Yang for our civil ceremony at San Francisco city hall and for our Chinese wedding reception in Oakland CA. We knew of Yang through a friend who only gave praises and i can now echo the same sentiments. Yang is a quick responder! Send him an email and he will get back to you so quick! He showed much interest in getting to know us, and our story. Yangs style, if I could describe it, would be enhanced natural, light and real. I didn't want a photographer to over edit our photos- I wanted good quality photos that looked professional , and flawless to the eye (lighting, angles, shadows, thoughtful positioning). Yang captures all of that and more! Yang is knowledgeable of the layout of San Francisco city hall. As newbies to professional photographs.. we were pretty lost in what to do but Yang made us feel 100% comfortable all the time (he also does a great job in making sure we are feeling relaxed!). He's so easy to work with, has all the latest equipment, doesn't skimp on trying to get the best shot, doesn't make you feel rushed. We received pictures what we'll cherish forever. They're just perfect! We booked Yang also for 10+ hours for our Chinese wedding reception. Yes. Yang was with us all day. He brought a counterpart (Renee) to assist on this day and i was so elated we got a helping hand for photos (Renee was amazing too!) Yang is fit, moves fast, swift but patient. He understood the tasks of the day, the events that would occur and everytime I thought I needed him, he was already there! Yang knows how to pose people! He is patient with group photos, knows how to scout, test and photographer new spaces... and I can see his excitement when he's in a new place looking for the perfect backdrop! As we await the photos from our reception , this review will be updated once we receive them :) I have no criticism for Yang. He met every expectation I had for our big days - which is the best I could've asked for. I appreciate him so much and can't wait for us to work together soon!

    Janet K.

    For our engagement shoot, we wanted something more fun and casual at the Facebook HQ. Yang completely exceeded our expectation and we loved how the photos came out! Yang is very professional and made us feel comfortable during the photo shoot. We are camera-shy people, so we were pretty awkward in front of the camera at first. He taught us how to pose and smile naturally. He has a keen photographer eye in capturing artistic compositions in places we would have no idea otherwise, especially in the Classic campus. We were really impressed by the quality and turnaround time. We would not hesitate to have Yang as our photographer for another occasion if we have the opportunity!

    See all

    Nupur is awesome! I came to know about her though a close friend who had recently done her…read morematernity shoot with Polka Dots Photography. To start with, she was very accommodating with our needs, travel time, pricing and just overall flexible around schedule and setting up the shoot. We discussed ideas before the shoot and had numerous message exchange for different poses, styling, hair and makeup. She also drove all the way to Santa Clara for shooting at the spot we picked, which was very generous of her. There are a couple things that are critical for a photoshoot especially one involving a small puppy - comfort, ideas, familiarity and patience. Nupur is exceptional in all these aspects! She also has a great personality which helped us have fun during the shoot instead of 'posing' to get the right angle and expression. My husband is bit camera shy and our small dog is difficult to manage but when we saw the final photographs they were nothing short of magic. We had our pick of 7 amongst the numerous marvelous shots she captured, but she went ahead and provided us few extras which was an awesome gesture. We can't thank her enough for capturing all these precious moments with our furry child and new guest due to arrive soon :)

    BOOK HER NOW…read more Oh my god. Nupur is not only an amazing photographer behind the camera, but she is also an incredibly sweet and respectful person without the camera. Since the first moment I contacted her, she has been super tentative, responsive, and patient with all my questions and input. I wanted to try something new and different that I hadn't seen in her portfolio before and she was not only game but was extremely excited and kind about everything. Even before the shoot, we talked on the phone to discuss themes, we texted about different angles, lighting, mood, locations, and wardrobe. I have had many photo shoots (engagement, wedding, individual/family/professional portraits etc) with different photographers, and Nurpur is BY FAR the best in collaboration. We never felt like our ideas were sub par, in fact, every pose or photo that I had selected for inspiration, we actually worked to recreate each look in our own way! We basically fed off each other's creativity and ideas and turn a commercial event into stunning photographic art! She was never pushy and always listening to understand what we wanted and worked VERY hard to get us nothing short of perfection. She's so talented at capturing the types and kinds of photos we wanted that even the unedited, straight off the camera pictures with the silhouetted looks were near perfect! I am just beyond ecstatic with our experience and seriously COULD NOT HAVE ASKED FOR MORE. The final photos were just jaw dropping and they are exactly as I had imagined and hoped for them to be. We are so grateful and thankful we found Nurpur to help us document this next chapter in our lives. Helped me feel beautiful and gorgeous in this scary, new, stage of pregnancy. And most of all, helped me capture a truly personal and unique set of photos that represent the multiple aspects of my cultural identities.

He was really fun and relaxed, making it comfortable to take photos with him. We are not models, and he was fantastic about giving direction and posing tips. After the ceremony, our families loved taking photos with him too! We loved our photos, which he turned around very quickly. It was an amazing experience, and we can't recommend him enough!

    Looking for a photographer to capture your big moments, who makes you feel comfortable and beyond…read moreeasy to work with ? You have to work with Toanven Photography because you will not regret it at all and get everything you want and more!! Toan and team are the absolute very best - worked directly with Toan, Martin, Trieu, and Michael and all very professional and super easy to get along with! We used Toanven photography for our engagement photoshoot / pre wedding , church wedding ceremony at St.Jarlath Catholic Church and civil wedding at Nella terra cellars. Also used their videography services which was also really great. When looking for a photographer , we wanted to make sure that our photographer is easy going, can help guide us and has experience with our venue. I discovered Toanven photography because my best friend used their services for her wedding and after finding out Toan had lots of experience at Nella Terra we knew we had to meet him. On our first zoom call Toan was beyond welcoming and excited which made us excited. He made us laugh, made us comfortable and answered all of our questions and broke down the whole process. Before the wedding Toan helped us better plan our timeline for photos and took his time to understand what were the "must have photos". He gave us alternatives on how we can still get pictures with others and saving time. His advice on a family shot list was super helpful as well. On wedding day Toan was just the person I needed around me with all the craziness of wedding day. His personality bring calmness and he is quick to think if a photo location doesn't work well for the lighting - he found better positioning and areas for the photos the look flawless. Beyond helpful when it came to posing, how to stand , where to look and capture all the right angles. Lastly, Depending on the package you go for, you will get a set number of edits photos and our photos were so amazing it was hard to reach the number of edits we can use. That says a lot about how the quality of the photos are and how they already shine! So reach out to Toanven photography, I promise you will love every moment!

    Eversnap Photography - Our daughter's happy moment with her friend - by Photographer Ross

    I have booked with Eversnap twice already (and about to book again). I started hosting murder…read moremystery parties for my birthday two years ago and found Eversnap online. Both photographers were very quick in providing the edited photos, and I have had a great experience both times. In 2018, my photographer was Ross, and right off the bat, he's good at communicating with me (especially since I had booked about three months in advanced). He was prompt and very professional. He was very good in balancing out candid and posed shots. Even though I was the birthday girl and had the most shots, he was really good with making sure every guest I had were represented enough in the photos (I had less than 20 guests). What I especially liked about Ross was there wasn't a lot of idle time, and he was really good with taking every opportunity and catching the right moments. In 2019, my photographer was Madeline. She was great as well, especially with balancing out candid with posed shots. Her photos were very well edited and she got to capture a lot of awesome moments! My only tiny complaint about her is that in comparison to Ross, she seemed to take a lot less photos and spent plenty of times just sitting there. For comparison, Ross gave me about 230 photos, while Madeline only gave about 170. Regardless, her photos were great, so I can't complain much haha. I will continue to use Eversnap in any events I host because it's super easy to use. I also like the flexibility of paying 50% of the price upfront, and 50% after the event.

    Summary : Avoid this internet based FAKE company and get a real photographer ! You will thank me…read morefor the advice. HORRIBLE COMPANY and PATHETIC SERVICE. Details: Came up with some excuse 1 hr before event. Terrible service. It was our sons First birthday. Totally ruined the event. They charged my credit card promptly during booking but finally didn't deliver the service. I have never seen such a pathetic service before. I think most reviews are fake and the company is paying some people to get the five star reviews. All kinds of idiots are starting companies and ruining life for others. They have the brains to setup everything ( booking, advertisements...etc) to get money but don't even have a backup camera person. These idiots don't have a contact phone where a real person answers. it takes day's before they respond. what am i supposed to do right in the middle of an event if Photographer doesn't show up and there is nobody to talk to? all brains to get money but none for real service. Amazing what extreme greed can do.

And, while I paid via mailed check they have an easy online payment system. I hired VR Squad to do the DJ/sound, uplighting, and Event Photography for my company's Corporate Annual Holiday Party. I like how they're a "one stop shop", when previously I've had to hire multiple different vendors to do all of these services. I like how fast they are to respond. It is clear that they do many similar events, and I would have to give them bonus points for already having worked at our event venue, because they instantly knew what equipment to bring and the room layout. Can't wait to see how the event turns out!

They were super easy to work with and very professional! The design they created for the background was beautiful and matched her bday theme perfectly. The Photo Booth itself was very easy to use and allowed you to receive your pictures diff ways. The props they provided were clean, well made and very fun to use!!! The night felt like a blur and seemed so short but because of having the VR Squad Photo Booth there, we'll always have the photos to look back on! I definitely recommend using any of their services and if or when we decide to do another event, they will be on the top of my list!! ****THANK YOU to everyone at VR Squad!!!!!
