If you only read one line from this review, please read this;…read more Kelly and the team are the best photographers in the business and you should absolutely hire them. Encor previously shot engagement & wedding photo's for my brother-in-law's and the pictures came out absolutely wonderful, so we decided to also go with them for our engagement and wedding photography needs. They made the engagement shoot extremely easy, providing a list of recommended shooting locations and even scoped out the perfect area for us based on our request. On our wedding day we were worried as heavy rains were forecasted. The team did a great job of scouting out the area and giving us plan B's and plan C's in case we needed alt shooting locations. The photography was amazing and did a great job of helping us keep our energy up while keeping everything relaxed. The photographers were so creative with different lighting effects and camera angles despite not being familiar with the new wedding venue we chose. We feel they certainly got the best photos possible and were great with making accommodations for requests during the ceremony and reception. We received a few sneak peeks of our photos and are absolutely blown away so far! We couldn't be happier with choosing Encor and would encourage anyone that is looking for the best possible team and pictures to utilize them!

Kelly and tony were kind and followed up with my timeline I had created with my day of coordinator for the wedding and leading up to the day they were great to work with. They also did our engagements which we loved since we feel like we could be awkward but they were wonderful for our reception. I will cherish all these photos I have with family and friends and we can thank them enough for spending a 14 hour day with us. We can't wait to see our video from the best day!

The parking lot is consistently busy, so finding a spot can be a hit or miss. Ambiance/Environment: The studio is located inside the AR Gallery. Once you enter the AR Gallery, you'll see the studio on your right. They have an extremely small space with two rooms. One room features white walls, and the other room features colored backgrounds. There's many props from headbands and hats to chairs and stools and more! Some props can use a cleaning, but you can't really see it in the photos. Service: I decided to do a walk-in, so I didn't book an appointment or prepay online. They only take walk-ins starting at 11:30. They're not busy on weekdays but busier during the weekends. I completely forgot his name, but the worker that checked me in was nice, efficient, and knowledgable about the offerings. They provide a large screen with gridlines, lighting, and a small remote. They'll give you a timer, so you'll know exactly how much time you have left during your session. Studio Session & Photos: I chose the 5 minute session with the colored background. You'd choose two colors out of five options. Since I chose the colored walls, let the worker know when you're ready to switch colors. They'll pause the timer, switch the background, and continue the timer. The small remote is easy to hide in the photos. The lighting is perfect, and the photos came out amazing! Pricing: All details and prices are on their website. It's easy to book an appointment online. Since my birthday was three days away, the worker gave me a 10% discount. They also offer other discounts. All details are listed on their website. Highly recommend this studio!

The best decision I made was marrying my wife, and Serendipity The Venue was the best decision we…read moremade to host the wedding! We got married here on Saturday, March 14, 2026 to coincide with the 10-year anniversary of our first date! My fiancée & I needed an ideal venue where we could get married and have everything all-inclusive (ceremony & reception) within Orange County, in one location. We came across Serendipity The Venue in Fountain Valley and saw the great reviews so we made an appointment to meet with the owner, Brad Ho in February 2025. From the moment we walked in, right away we saw the place was classy, beautifully decorated, and very large to easily host the 160+ guests we were inviting. I wanted to secure March 14, 2026 so I readily gave a deposit to ensure we had our date booked! We selected their top wedding package, The Serendipity Package and chose with the Asian 8-course dinner. What is fantastic about this package, it also includes two photoshoots. We did an engagement photoshoot in July (which turned out beautifully) and had the wedding photos the day of the wedding (both in a nearby park with the wedding party and in the venue during the ceremony and reception). So we also got the wedding photographers with our package, one less thing we needed to arrange! And they were pros, we're very impressed with how the pictures and videos turned out and captured the moment. We also appreciated they provided us a wedding coordinator (Maria) that works for them, and she ensured every detail came together as planned! We kept in touch with her regularly in the months leading up to our big day. The day of the wedding, March 14th, we were impressed by how they have a coordinated team that ensures everything flows smoothly! They had valet, professionally-dressed security, servers, bartenders, DJ, the photographers. For the reception the food was incredible, and the DJ, "DJ Charly" was engaging and made it a fun night! We're grateful to Brad, Carolina, and Maria for having this all come together. The wedding is behind us now and all our guests have been telling us for the past 2 weeks what a wonderful and incredible wedding we had! Thank you!! In appreciation, Kelly & Eva

We had our wedding ceremony and reception at Serendipity the Venue about a month ago, and it was…read morethe wedding of our dreams! We wanted to take as much of the guesswork out of planning, so this was the ideal venue for us. We did not have to search for an additional ceremony space, DJ, photographer, videographer, caterers, bartenders, and catering service because those services were all included. Not to mention, security, valet, and a dedicated coordinator! We had a couple of special requests such as print-out welcome photos for our guests, two outside food vendors for our late-night snack, and a dedicated table for an outside silhouette artist we hired, all of which were accommodated with ease. I was even able to make a custom photo-booth print and bar signage, and was so excited to see them on display on the wedding day! We received so much positive feedback about our wedding from guests. Lots of compliments about the food (we went with Paracel catering), the music (shout out to DJ Kido who really understood the vibes we were going for), the photography (which we received very quickly by wedding photography standards), and the venue itself. Brad did a great job emceeing for us, and kept the schedule flowing while also bringing positive energy. Everyone was a pleasure to work with, from the wait staff, security, valet, Carolina and her photography/videography team, Maria as our coordinator. It felt like a well oiled ship. The service far beats the price. It was legitimately the best day of our lives, and it would not have happened without this team and venue!

My wife gave me this boudoir shoot as a birthday gift, and wow, what a gift it turned out to be…read more From my perspective as the husband on the receiving end, the photos came out incredible. Let's just say... she absolutely understood the assignment. What I really appreciated was how much class the studio brought to the entire experience. The images were sexy without being too much, elegant without losing that playful and intimate feel. They clearly knew how to highlight her beauty in a tasteful, flattering, and polished way. You can tell this studio knows exactly what they're doing. The photos definitely had plenty of heat, but just as important, my wife seemed comfortable throughout the process, and that showed in the final results. As her husband, I'll just say I probably spent longer admiring the photos than I should admit in a Yelp review. This was absolutely a home run of a birthday gift. If you're looking for a boudoir studio that can create something sexy, polished, and genuinely classy, I would absolutely recommend them. To respect my wife's privacy, I attached AI-generated recreations inspired by the actual shots.

I guess true to what's starting to look like a family tradition (lol), I came to Beth for my own boudoir shoot to surprise my husband on our wedding day. Beth is incredibly talented, warm, and is a master at making her clients feel comfortable and confident. For those who're worried about what to do or who generally don't think they look good in pictures, don't sweat it. She'll tell you exactly how to pose, where to look, and overall hold your hand throughout the entire process. I didn't worry about a thing during my shoot. When she showed me the sneak peeks afterward, I couldn't believe the results! And this was before editing. The final product--a high-quality, heavy-duty book--took my breath away. Beth is worth every penny and is truly a gift to women. She cares deeply about her clients and her work, and it shows.

Truth be told....I write this with a bit of a tear in my eye....not to get too melodramatic over a…read moreyelp review....but pictures...when done perfect and if your in a particular sentimental mood....can have that effect. Some backstory...Imagix/Michelle has done our yearly photos for our son from ages 1 to now 5. (See my past reviews). From somehow capturing a perfect moment from our perpetually moving blur of a son (ages 1-3) to patiently instructing four 70/80 year olds on how to hold their aforementioned 4 year old Tasmanian Devil grandson last year, Michelle is a magician/artist...I always leave the photoshoot stressed from the chaos Hurricane Daniel (our son) leaves in his wake....But every year we come back to look at the proofs and are amazed at Michelle ability to capture "lighting in a bottle" . This year was no different. Fortunately we survived the terrible 2's (...3's....4's....) and thanks to time, maturity, and the opposite of gentle parenting, our little Daniel, though far from perfect, is manageable. But we didn't want to make it too easy for Michelle, so we threw in another variable. After a recent canine cancer scare, and recently learning from Google that all dogs, however loyal and cute, unfortunately have an inescapable life, span, I somehow convinced my beautiful but camera shy wife that this is the year we do a family photo with our dog. Some more backstory, if you read this far, our Yorkie, Libby, loves us but HATES the rest of the world. She spent the entire hour photoshoot in perpetual scowl and Volume 11 non stop bark. One week later as she always does, lighting in a bottle perfection. I looked at the proofs with amazement. Our son, we expected....she's done it every year, but how she made a loud perpetual yapping bark into a impossibly cute smile is above my skill set. But I think her greatest feat is how she lessened the "he must be rich" looks gap between my wife and I. My wife is easy, even me with my amateur Android skills, it's hard for her to take a bad picture. Michelle mastery came with how she elevated me to "he must be funny" looks gap level. So why the tear? We loved one of the pics so much we purchased a large framed canvas print to hang on our living room wall. My 85 year old happened to be in town for his grandsons 5th bday so I asked him for an helping hand hanging the picture. I figured he has these family portrait hanging at my childhood home. My brother and I with our full head of hair and my mom shoulder pads captured the 90's to a tee...but what I always remember is the "proud" look my dad had on his face. A look of accomplishment shouting "look at me world and all that I love and created". Watching my aging dad struggle, listing to my aging dog bark in a locked room to protect my dad's ankles, I was suddenly reminded that time, as much as you want to hit pause, always moves forward. It's a good idea to stop and smell the roses, or in this case, look at the snapshot/memories/moments and take it all in. After my dad handed me the leveler and I put away the hammer, and I looked up....and yeah....I had that "Dad" look
