“Working with Renata for my pregnancy photoshoot was an unforgettable experience. Not only is she incredibly talented behind the camera, but her kindness and passion truly shine through in every moment. She made me feel so comfortable, beautiful, and empowered during such a special time in my life. The photos turned out beyond my expectations — each one full of emotion and artistry. I genuinely recommend Renata to every mama-to-be looking to capture the magic of pregnancy with someone who truly sees you through her lens!!“

“We had an excellent experience with PKA Photo & Video. The proposal pictures turned out absolutely beautiful, and all the revisions and additions were done very naturally. They listened very carefully to our instructions and followed the structure we requested perfectly. We are highly satisfied with the final results. Communication throughout the process was smooth, professional, and efficient. This was the best experience we could have asked for, and we highly recommend them!“

“Investing in photography and videography was a priority for my now-husband and I! We knew we wanted something to look back on time and time again, to remember our special day. Choosing to go with Willmus Weddings was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! Christophe was so easy to work with from our engagement shoot to our actual wedding day. Communicating before, during, and after went by smoothly! We felt so comfortable with him from start to finish. Thank you so much for an amazing experience! We are obsessed with our wedding gallery!!!

“The Astray team is the best photography & videography duo in Southern California! We can't say enough good things about Brittney & Andy. As a duo and team, they brought so much energy, professionalism, and creativity to our wedding day. Plus, they are the sweetest, kindest, and coolest people! From our engagement shoot to our wedding, they captured every special moment and more — the small details, the big emotions, and everything in between. They made us feel so comfortable and relaxed (which is HUGE as someone who doesn’t like to be photographed), and their ability to capture the true essence of our day was simply amazing. They are truly amazing storytellers and that is apparent through our photos and video. We’re beyond thrilled with the photos and video, and we’ll cherish them forever. If you're looking for a talented, dedicated team to capture your special moments, Astray is the way to go! Thank you again for making our day unforgettable!“

“Laura is very well to work with. We arrived late and was all over the place and she managed to put us at ease and make me confident.
She was patient and kind and allowed me to rest, snack and put my swollen feet up whenever i needed to.
I was not feeling very confident at 9months pregnant and she coached me on the perfect poses and outfits to choose to enhance my beauty.
Her print options are amazing and her editing skills are top tier. The best photographer I’ve worked with and cannot wait to work with her again.“

“I’ve had the pleasure of Ashlee shooting my maternity and newborn photos. She was so kind, not only to me but my entire family. We enjoyed her session so much! The pictures came out phenomenal and we had the hardest time picking out favorites. If you’re looking for someone who loves her career & amazing with babies(children). Book her you won’t be disappointed!“

“Jeff is not just a photographer, he is an artist! He has an incredible eye for detail and every single one of his photographs is stunning. I booked Jeff for a boudoir photoshoot after looking into over a dozen photographers throughout San Diego, and it was the best decision I could have made! From our initial phone call through the photoshoot, he was kind, communicative, professional, and patient. He made me feel so comfortable during the photoshoot and gave excellent direction for posing. His studio is also incredible and he offers many options to elevate the shoot (including an extensive wardrobe, props, and accessories). His hair and makeup artist also did a beautiful job. If you are looking for a boudoir photographer, I highly recommend booking Jeff!“

“Our Snappr experience was fantastic! We booked Mariola (San Diego area) for a one hour family shoot, and I must admit, I was a little nervous about it, because the price seemed almost too good to be to be true. But Mariola contacted me a couple of days before the shoot, we discussed details of the best beach to take the photos, and she was there on time and ready the day of the session. Mariola was fantastic, and really captured the essence of our family. She was great about making sure we were posed nicely, and was very flexible about taking a few photos of some extended family who came along as well. She made excellent use of our one hour together, making sure to take plenty of different photos in different poses and with different backdrops. A little more than a day later, we received the email notifying us our gallery was ready, and the photos are high quality and absolutely gorgeous! I’ve had no issues downloading the photos to use for our holiday cards, and I am 100% happy with our first Snappr experience. I would definitely use Snappr again, and the next time we are visiting San Diego, we will book Mariola again!“

“Bob and his staff did an amazing job photographing our daughter’s Bat Mitzvah! We couldn’t be happier with the photos and the great communication of him and his office.“

“Heather is an amazing photographer and made me feel completely at ease during my branding session. She walked me through her process step by step, offered suggestions on my wardrobe, and guided me in posing so that I looked professional. Her attention to detail is impeccable. The final photos turned out great, and I couldn’t recommend her more highly!“

“Kate was incredibly wonderful to work with. From the moment I initiated contact with her she was responsive, detailed and very thorough, but most of all kind and pleasant. Once we met up to take photos she was prepared, again super responsive and considerate of my time, and she had great energy that made you feel comfortable and relaxed. She communicated and managed my expectations of when and how to receive the images, she was even early in delivering them. To top all of that my pictures were absolutely STUNNING.... I just cannot say enough good things. She was simply amazing to work with and we will certainly be using her again in the future, as well as referring her to all of our friends and family. Thanks for capturing my beautiful kids Kate.... we will cherish your photos FOREVER :)“

“We always have an incredible experience working with Hale Productions and utilizing their studio space.

Our partnership is always smooth, seamless, and organized.

Would highly recommend!“

“We took both our engagement photos and our wedding photos with Brian. If your event is in anyway connected with nature, Brian is your man! Taking the engagement photos at Torrey pines was one of my favorite parts of the wedding planning process. Brian knows the surf and the beach so well, we had so much fun taking pictures among the waves.

His team was incredibly professional during the wedding and captured every moment we asked and then some. Even though it ended up raining and hailing for parts of the reception, Brian and his team took that opportunity to take some dramatic shots.“

“Sara took our newborn and family photos. She was absolutely incredible. Extremely kind and patient with my kids and just so friendly. We are so happy with the photos she took and will treasure them forever.“

“Excellent , reasonably priced service! Charlie Walkrich was easy to work with, and thorough. Our photographer, Jackie, arrived early, was kind, knowledgeable and professional. She listened to us, and made great suggestions. We will definitely use this company again in the future.“

“Rachel photographed our elopement in San Diego and from our very first conversation I loved how generous she was with her time and the vision and organization she brought to the whole process. She is very knowledgeable about the San Diego County Clerk office, and gave excellent advice about everything from where to park to where to take the coolest shots. She captured everything from the very first moments in the waiting room in a “storytelling” style and gave us thoughtful instructions to make sure we were posed naturally and got an amazing diversity of different angles/smiles/lighting. She didn’t make us feel rushed at all and helped us feel at ease, even making sure she captured several quick photos and videos on my cellphone so I’d have something immediately available to share with our friends and family. If that weren’t enough, she also completed the editing in record time!! We couldn’t be happier with how the photos turned out, and it’s going to be impossible to pick our favorites for printing. Thank you, Rachel for sharing our special day with us and working your magic on our photos!! These will become our most cherished memories!!“

“My company has hired Just a Memory for their event over the last few years and they consistently do a great job. The product is high quality and they put my artwork into the design creating a beautiful keepsake.“

“Chris is literally SOOOO amazing! We worked with Chris for our wedding photographs and couldn't be happier. From the start, Chris made us feel supported and heard in every meeting or call we had with her. Her kind and caring personality was felt the entire we worked with her.

On our special day, Chris took away any stress we had regarding photos and ensured that we felt comfortable and happy. She took charge and directed everyone in the best way possible, everyone loved her!

Having gotten our wedding photos just recently, we also couldn't be happier with having chosen to work with Chris! Her work is truly AMAZING! She took our vision and made it even better than we could've ever imagined. Thank you so so so much Chris for everything, we appreciate you!“

“Angelika was a fabulous photographer! She had amazing energy and personality and made the actual photography session an absolute blast. I had been nervous prior to coming in but she made me feel very comfortable the whole time. The pictures also came out absolutely stunningly! Both myself and fiancé loved them! I would strongly recommend Angelika and her business to anyone looking for photos.“

“I have wanted to do a Boudoir shoot for years! I've was always nervous. I found Barbara online with a lot of great testimonials, and her work speaks for itself, it's beautiful! the day of our shoot she made me feel really comfortable and she also supplies everything you need at her place as far as clothing, etc. She is a true master and has an eye for bringing out the best in you and downplaying things you're not sure about yourself. Anyway, my book came out better than I could ever imagine, and my boyfriend was over the moon! I highly recommend Barbara for all of your photographic needs.“

“Working with Megan is an absolute treat, she displays a true ownership of her craft while also quickly thinking on her feet. From behind the camera, Megan fosters creativity within her vendor teams and always wants to try new and wonderful things that make her final product a DREAM. As a fellow vendor and friend, her support and encouragement means so much to me!“

“We had the absolute pleasure of having Sam Fu as our wedding photographer, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience and the results. From the moment we first connected, Sam was incredibly professional, warm, and attentive to our vision. He took the time to understand our story and what mattered most to us, and that care truly showed in every photo.

On the big day, Sam was a calming presence—always there but never intrusive. He captured every special moment so naturally, from the emotional to the candid, and somehow made us feel completely at ease in front of the camera. His eye for detail and ability to find beauty in even the smallest moments is truly a gift.

When we received our photos, we were blown away. Every image was full of life, emotion, and artistry. Sam has a unique talent for telling a story through his lens, and we’re so grateful he told ours.

If you’re looking for a photographer who is not only incredibly talented but also kind, reliable, and genuinely invested in your day, we can’t recommend Sam Fu enough. These are memories we’ll treasure forever, and we have Sam to thank for that.“

“Dennis did a fantastic job taking professional headshots for me. He was easy to work with and I was very happy with the results.“
