Photographers near Benicia

“In celebration of turning 50, I spent a 9+ hour day with Brady crafting a set of extraordinary portraits. From the moment I walked into her stunning Benicia studio for a planning session and saw others' portraits on her wall, I've been in awe of Brady's eye and artistry -- rare, exceptional, breathtaking, truly special talent that I feel fortunate to have come across in my lifetime. And to have her photograph ME in such a way - ?! What a gift! I have never felt as secure, strong, and beautiful as I did on that day and now anytime when I look through these special portraits. Reflecting on all of the artistry and the life experience that went into these, I'm most in awe of the dialogue between artist and subject that she facilitated with great skill. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Brady! I hope to see you again at 60, 70, and beyond.“

“My experience with Lily Dong was exceptional. I was under a tight deadline to deliver a headshot and, although I am a creative, I had no experience being the subject of a photograph and I was admittedly nervous. She not only made me feel comfortable with the process but she delivered a wide variety of choices within a short time frame. She managed to combine technical virtuosity with creative flare and a personable style. I highly recommend her to anyone with photographic needs.“

“We used Athena for a family photo session with our 2 month old and we could not be happier with the pictures. We love them and will definitely be using Athena again for future family sessions.“

“Laurel is amazing! She did my maternity and newborn pics and nailed every single shot! Just recently I booked a simply you session with my two boys and I’m so excited to see the memories she captured. Her client closet is absolutely beautiful and she was so great about helping me dress my boyfriend and oldest son. Her studio is nice and warm for baby sessions, and it’s clear she has the magic touch with babies. My three year old son also has a fun time with her every time. Highly recommend booking a session with Laurel, you will not be disappointed!“

“Very talented in every shoot or event. Don't hesitate to book a session. Follow for the special sessions that are different from the typical business model. Tiffany made my wife and I look amazing on our wedding day...not an easy feat to make me look good. She knocked it out of the park during the Santa event for the kids.“

“Jenny and her husband Geo were the photographers at my 2022 wedding in Tilden Park at The Brazilian Room. They were very communicative and helpful in planning the photos. Their calm presence helped us stay calm too! Our wedding photos turned out beautifully and we are very happy.“

“Lexx did an amazing job on my tattoo - especially because she freehand did the majority of it because of it being wrapped around my wrist. Tried booking with another artist before Lexx who had difficulty creating what I wanted, but Lexx sat down with me during our consultation and came up with exactly what I'd had in my mind. Love the result.“

“We contacted several places for a last minute photo shoot while family was in town for the holidays, and Joel kindly accommodated our request. There were nine of us including our special needs nephew, and Joel was very kind, patient and understanding with our nephew. Joel is very responsive, professional, talented, easy to work with, and fast! He was able to capture really great photos of our large group with just a few takes and had the digital photos ready the same afternoon. We are very thankful for Joel's help, as he was able to capture pictures of our family finally together after many years apart! We highly recommend working with Serenity Lawrence Studios for all your professional photo needs!“

“These pictures are amazing. I bought two and want two more. Great customer service and one on one sales.“

“Hi all) I was looking for a photographer for my wedding on the internet. Seeing Michael's work and reviews about him, without any doubts I wrote him) I got an answer after a couple of minutes. ? Everything turned out just perfect: both communication and our work))))“

“Very professional team and the videos and photos came out just how we wanted them! We are looking to invite them back to do more filming when we are ready with the next phase of our project. Highly recommended.“

“I was SO happy with my Passport photo after going somewhere else and getting a "mugshot" photo that looked awful. Monica was great. She really took her time and made absolutely sure that I got a good photo and was completely happy with it. Friendly staff and easy parking. Thank you so much Monica. Highly recommend“

“I needed a somewhat local lab to get my film processed as I do not like shipping my rolls of film to labs further down the state or out of state. Found A1 Photo & Video Lab and couldn't be happier. Had four rolls processed and it took less than two days to get the negatives back. Staff was also patient and friendly to deal with. I live around 25 min away from here, but it's worth the drive, especially to support these kinds of businesses. The plaza they are located in is also quite nice. I will definitely be coming back here for their services!“

“Aryella did an amazing job taking my children's photos. I have three young children, 8, 5 & 2 and she was so patient and kind with them. She made sure to get incredible shots of each of them and even came up with really cute and creative posing and props. Every picture turned out great and I couldnt be happier. Thank to Aryella for doing such a great job and being so kind!“
