Photographers near Berkeley

“I needed to take some professional photos to use on my company’s website. I searched several photo studios and compared the prices, and finally decided that Berkeley Portrait Studio offered the best value for money.

On the day of the shoot, the photographer, Matt, was a very gentle and friendly guy who always had a smile on his face, which helped me feel less nervous. He checked the test shots with us to ensure we were satisfied with the results—very professional.

The selection process for the final photos was also quick and efficient, saving me time. For me, it was a fantastic photography experience that met my expectations. I would definitely recommend it to my friends.“

“After having my third photo shoot with Nan, I'm more impressed than ever with her work. She again captured my spirit, and makes me look good yet real. The photos make me smile. As a professional, I believe it's important to have a current head shot. I've invested plenty on all kinds of courses, consultants and other business expenses. If I'm the product, shouldn't I show up as my best? It costs enough to be in business, and I don't think a professional photo is the place to be cheap. What Nan produces is a world away from the quick-picts we can all get with our phones, etc. I've finally scheduled a family shoot with Nan. I love how everyone in her group photos look so real and beautiful, and aren't just "smiling for the camera." Again, she captures the individuality of her subjects. I'm sure I'll be annoyed I waited so long to get the family portra“

“We used Rebecca for new headshots for our team and could not be happier with our experience. Rebecca was great from start to finish as far as understanding the look we were going for and what we could achieve with both our time and location constraints. The entire team had nothing but positive things to say when photos were completed and both Rebecca and her assistant made everyone feel at ease. The selection and editing process were both also incredibly smooth and we can’t wait to get our new photos uploaded everywhere!“

“This was a 1st visit after reading Yelp reviews. I am very satisfied with my new brows. I had gotten my brows microblade before from another place & my right brow needed a correction to be even with right brow. Stephanie was very professional and patient on explaining and answering all my questions. She makes sure your brows are perfect and exactly like you want them. My right brow is now even to my left brow and I was so happy she was able to create the color I wanted. She did an excellent job.“

“Worked with Nancy and her team on a professional headshot. Smooth, professional experience from front to back. She even coaxed some smiles out of me in front of the camera, an accomplishment in itself. Thanks, Nancy.“

“Hundreds of years ago when photography was yet to be discovered, there was art. Not everyone could become an artist; it required a great deal of talent, skill and artistic sensibility. When searching for someone to work with on our engagement session, we were looking for an artist. There are many photographers out there but very few of them are true artists. Artists like Arya, who paint stories of love, passion and commitment through the lenses of his cameras. They bring out what's best in you and make you fall in love with your partner over and over again. And they do it with so much grace, passion and energy!! They have an incredible ability to capture fleeting moments and precious emotions. And what's more important in an engagement or a wedding session? It is all about love. Arya held it still for us so we can go back to it over and over again in our most beautiful memories. Thank you Photography by Arya for the amazing engagement session!!“

“Jenn is AWESOME! We did New Born photoshoot and loved every single photo that we had to do his 1yr photos.. Jenn is beyond talented at her craft. She is extremely creative and makes everything easy. Her website is super helpful and informative.. Jenn asked all kinds of questions so ensure she captured the photos we were hoping for. She arrived and it was magical! She absolutely has a magic touch with working with kids and new borns.. She gave great instructions and was easygoing when dealing with a crazy mom (me) and a 1yr old.. I will absolutely book with her for every milestone. I 100% recommend Jenn!“

“She is such talent, artist , she sees beautiful things I people they never knew they had themShe is enjoying so much what she does. And my whole family photos are proof of her talent. She is just awesome in person, too. Awesome woman“

“My experience could not have been more perfect. Having never had pet photography done before, I didn't know what to expect but Ellen made the day one to remember. She clearly adores animals and treated my Emma with the finest, most loving touch. At first, I was unsure about making this kind of investment but something in me said "go for it." I am so glad I did. You see, our shoot was April and three months later my beloved Emma was diagnosed with a very rare and aggressive form of mammary cancer. She likely won't make it to Thanksgiving. That shoot with Ellen was one something that I'll always cherish. The artwork means even more now. Our time with our babies are never long enough. Do all the things, make all the memories. Take all the photos. You won't regret it. Thanks Ellen. Emma and I are so greatdul for your kindness and love.“
