“Very easy to work with and good value. Would recommend for head shots and other professional needs“

“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“

“They were great to work with in spite of me being convinced that I can't take good pictures!“

“Valentina was professional, experience, and willing to give you enough freedom to make the experience memorable. I recommend.“

“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!“

“I had a great 1:1 tutorial/session with Christian and I highly recommend him. His approach is very down-to-earth, his teaching very straightforward and he quickly helped me understand the nuances of taking fully manual photos. Looking forward to applying his recommendations!“

“Clayton was amazing to work with. I needed professional headshots to update my LinkedIn profile. I searched far and wide around the Bay Area for someone who could get the job done with a reasonable price point. Clayton got back to me right away and squeezed me into his busy schedule so we could shoot ASAP. I do not consider myself to be photogenic- I get awkward when it comes to posing and how to look at the camera. Luckily, Clayton guided me throughout the whole process, and we got some amazing, professional headshots. He went above and beyond to deliver an outstanding product I can use for years. I will use Clayton J. Mitchell Photography for all my future endeavors.“

“We had a wonderful experience! I was given the task, very last minute, of finding a photographer within 20 hours of a beach engagement proposal. Signed up, got a response within 20 minutes from Robbie, he was polite and professional. Big range of emotions that afternoon, and Robbie kept everything together with his experience and expertise! He was awesome! Everything went smoothly from signing up sharing the photos. I don't know what I would have done without Snappr, this was absolutely the perfect solution for us. Thanks Snappr!!“

“We are so glad we booked Mike Dubnoff (and his amazing team) as our San Francisco city hall wedding photographer. Since we had never been to SF city hall, we weren’t sure what to expect once we arrived. Mike assured us he would be there to help us navigate and he did every step of the way! He and his team really cared about getting us the most quality photos out of our time together and they were so professional and patient with us, and everyone else, along the way. We had such a fantastic time at our wedding and that really came across in our photos which was important to us. We couldn’t be more pleased!!
I would highly recommend booking Mike and his awesome team! They really are a pleasure to work with and are very talented at what they do!“

“We had the pleasure of having Rob take our family photos!! They came out amazing. He was patient with my kids and he knew all the right angles to get the perfect shot. We will definitely work with him again.“

“Ms.G created a amazing experience for my brand and made it so comfortable that it felt like being at home in my living room. Thank you so much Ms.G“

“Marty Kelly is a master of photographing textiles and objects. He has documented my artwork for many years and achieves the most accurate reproduction of the subtle qualities and textures in my weavings. It is very difficult to capture and I am always so impressed with his results.“

“This review is long overdue—we eloped on December 17, 2024—but we couldn’t have asked for a better photographer than Lilia! As a couple visiting from Southern California, we really appreciated how helpful she was in giving us recommendations for tourist spots around San Francisco, including Fisherman’s Wharf, Alcatraz, and of course, the Golden Gate Bridge.

Lilia truly knows her way around San Francisco City Hall and guided us to all the best photo locations inside and outside the building. She was not only professional and knowledgeable, but also incredibly kind—when my sister ran late to sign as a witness, Lilia stepped in and signed for us without hesitation. She also helped us navigate the marriage license filing process, which made things so much smoother.

Her pricing was the best we found, and the quality of her work was amazing. My husband and I were so happy with how the photos turned out. She sent us a download link which made it super easy to access and save our photos to multiple devices. On top of all that, she was very friendly and easy to talk to, which made the whole experience even more special.

Thank you, Lilia, for being such a wonderful part of our wedding day!“

“I'm a Realtor and I've had a few headshots taken of me over the years. Nancy is by far the best I have come across. She was both a pleasure to work with and produced great results. Just look at my new Google profile pic!“

“I am very impressed with Kurty’s work and would definitely recommend him! I did a mini headshot session with Kurty and absolutely love how my photo came out. He made me smile and laugh throughout the shoot which was key to getting that perfect professional photo. I even received my retouched photo the same day. Highly recommend!“

“Brennan is the best Photographer! Brennan was enthusiastic to get me the shots that I wanted. While working, he was friendly, energetic and professional. He got amazing photos of our event. Truly captured the energy in the room, and was a pleasure to work with.“

“Ashley was a tremendous professional and on top of every aspect I needed for engagement photos. Also, she had unthought of ideas for style and locations. I've referred her company a few times now. Capture your history and energy with Indigo and Ashely. Best choice!“

“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.“

“Service was super fast and professional. Juan went the extra mile to ensure a perfect lighting setup for shots.I highly recommend Juan for your photography service.“

“The team at Studio Heimat was a joy to work with. They are fun, professional, and collaborative. The designs they produce are finely detailed and an excellent combination of innovative and beautiful, and at the same time, practical.“

“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!“

“Reenie Raschke, of Studio Montclair, is a Photographer Extraordinaire! We had the absolute pleasure of working with her at Meals on Wheels big fundraiser, on June 21st 2025. She is a rare breed of creative artist in that she brings an amazing vitality to her communications, and her photographs as well. Vivacious, creative and generous, she brought the perfect touch of elegance and play to our event and the photos she took. We highly recommend her and can't wait to work with her again and/or recommend her the next time Curated Entertainment is working on an event. We are attaching some photos to give you a sense of your amazingly compositional eye.“

“We had an amazing class and thank you Angela and Marty for your support and for sharing this beautiful space with us. ?“

“Teresa is an amazing photographer for your furry family! She is patient and skilled in working with them to make them feel comfortable. It is only then that you see their personalities shine! She welcomes your ideas and props for the photo sitting and has all sorts of techniques to get the subjects to look at the camera. Teresa doesn't stop taking photos till you're confident you have enough photos in sequence or favorite poses. She's been taking photos of my puppers for 10+ years now. You won't be disappointed ???“

“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.“
