I was determined to have Golden Gate bridge photos for our family Holiday cards this year. Yelp…read moreled me to Carly and we booked one of her 'mini sessions' (25 minutes for 10 high res PDF photos). From the beginning, Carly was responsive and flexible, even squeezing us in on a busy day in between her other clients when we were hoping for a certain weekend. On the day of our photo shoot, my son got car sick and threw up all over himself and his 'nice clothes' and was crying (red puffy eyes). Then we arrived in the City and the beautiful Fall late afternoon photo shoot we'd hoped for was completely and totally fogged in, cold, gray and windy. You could seriously only see about 6 feet of the bottom of the bridge! I wanted to turn around and go home under the covers. Carly was so positive and upbeat and got us all in a better mood fast. She took us to a few different locations and had us pose in candid ways and we were all laughing a few minutes in. I was hopeful for one picture that we could use from that day. Well, less than a week later than our session, she emailed me our pictures and I was totally and completely blown away by how good they were! There were about 20 that I really really liked. Everyone looked really good with 'real smiles' and you would never know it was actually a super gray, crying, yucky cold day. She is super talented, worked quickly and professionally and was super nice. Not only is she wonderful, but her work and the pictures were really great. The lighting looked good, smiles were genuine and different backgrounds she used turned out great (although never did get my whole bridge picture because of the fog, but we can always try again with Carly next year!)

She is one of the happiest people that I have ever met and makes the whole process such a great experience. It is really hard to walk around when you're so far along, but she made it easy for us to get through it. Her pricing is very reasonable, which is difficult to find in this city. She did not cost us an arm and a leg, which is great when you're having a child. We will forever cherish these pictures! I would recommend her for anyone and definitely plan on using her for our newborn and family pictures!

A boudoir photo shoot had been on my bucket list for a long time. I was engaged and thought it…read morewould be the perfect wedding gift, but can't say it wasn't a gift to myself as well. I researched different photographers and Andrea caught my eye for 2 reasons: her beautiful, timeless and elegant photos and her dialogue around doing a boudoir photo shoot. She starts with introspective questions about what you want to portray in your photos. She nurtures a healthy body image along the way and makes you feel your best from the inside out. That is truly her magic. The day itself was so special where I got to step out of my normal routine and into the routine of a super model. Andrea and her team had every detail worked out, so I could just relax and go with it. I visited Andrea again to review the photos to choose my favorites. There were too many and I ended up making the book bigger to solve that "problem." The end product is two books (boudoir + fine art) full of beautiful, professional photos. I gifted the book the morning of our wedding day and my now husband was absolutely floored. They now live on his nightstand and we both look at the often. Thank you, Andrea! When can we do it again?!?!

Pretty perfect day! I felt beautiful, comfortable and most importantly had so much FUN. I have wonderful memories from this whole experience! I'm sure you're sick of hearing it but THANK YOU! It must be so fulfilling to have a job where you get to make women feel like the best versions of themselves.

Highlights: - Before the session, Vivian was so helpful on text and getting to know us and our story! - Day of, Vivian guided us with expression/pose ideas that felt natural to us, noticed minor details & always remembered my "good" side :) - We picked a large venue (Filoli Gardens) on a chilly weekend, and Vivian was a pro and patient with finding a variety of photo ops (indoor and outdoor) - Quick turnaround with our edited photos (lots of options in colored and B&W) & loved how Vivian created a story with the overall session with capturing a range of candid/poses. It's hard to find a photo we both like us both in, but honestly it was hard to choose our top faves! Highly recommend Vivian to capture special moments!

They reel you in under the pretenses that you are receiving a free session- it is. They don't tell…read moreyou that unlike all of your other professional photographers, you need to pay per photo. They were trying to get me to pay MORE than what I paid for 8 hours on my wedding day. Total scam. While I appreciated the photographer herself, the company is very disappointing. To have someone go through the time and effort to show up and spend hours at a shoot, only to tell them that they need to pay to purchase the rights to their own images and on top of that, pay for the album (they give you a $100 credit but it's nothing), is wrong and I'm surprised they haven't been sued. Some women get their hair and makeup professionally done. I did not. But that would make any woman feel forced to purchase her images just so she doesn't have to go through another three hour session again and/or pay for hair and makeup. I couldn't say enough about how terrible this form of business is.

He brings a creative vision to every shoot, coming up with ideas and capturing moments that you'd never even think of. As a fellow wedding vendor, I needed support with a wedding and boy, did he come to my rescue! Brian didn't just show up to photograph a wedding in San Francisco,he showed up with heart, with soul, and with a level of dedication that truly moved me. The day before, he was shooting a wedding late into the night in San Jose. Most people would've called it a weekend. But not Brian. He woke up early, drove all the way to San Francisco, and showed up, not just for the couple, but for me, a friend who needed help. Without hesitation, he stepped in and captured the kind of detail shots I could've only dreamed of. He saw things most photographers would walk right past. His vision, his instinct, his artistry--they're rare. But even more rare is his heart and dedication to his photography. I've worked with many photographers over the years. And while many are talented, few are as timeless, romantic, and soulful as Brian. His photos feel like they've always belonged in your life, like they were meant to be printed, framed, and passed down. He doesn't just capture moments, he honor's them. What he did for me that day wasn't just a favor. It was a gift. It reminded me why I love working in this industry with people who care this deeply. Brian, you are the definition of a professional, but even more, you're an amazing human being. If you're reading this and looking for a photographer--stop. You've found him. I truly can't thank Brian enough, looking forward to working many more weddings in the near future!
