“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.“

“Matt’s photo studio is full of Berkeley charm. Matt has just the right equipment, setup, and skill to deliver portraits of the same quality as the high end studios but for a fraction of the price. Make sure to bring a change of clothes you can swap quickly to get the most out of your session. Definitely would recommend!“

“Eric was patient in capturing our photographs for our couple photo shoot . He was very professional , a dedicated photographer and a great person !! He is a very sweet and kind hearted person . I would definitely hire Eric for any of my future events and would recommend him to all my friends and family as well!!“

“If you're in need of a proposal photographer, look no further! Steven did an amazing job in helping me prepare for the big moment, the photography session was really fun, and we loved the photographs.After talking to Steven on the phone, I knew right away that he was the photographer I wanted to go with - I was rather stressed about planning everything but he put my fears to ease, was very easy to talk to, and struck a perfect balance of figuring out exactly what I wanted while at the same time offering his great wisdom and advice to steer me in the right direction on key details. Over several phone calls and emails exchanged, he helped me weigh different options (e.g. is golden hour really important? should he secretly photograph the big moment or "bump into each other" ahead of time), plan the little details (e.g. the exact location where it should happen, how the shot should be framed, etc), and come up with contingency plans (e.g. what if it rains? what if the area is too crowded?).The results speak for themselves - the proposal went great (she was totally surprised) and he captured the moment beautifully. Afterwards we spent additional time doing more posed "engagement" shots, which Steven expertly guided us through, and the resulting photographs looked natural, the framing and lighting were beautiful, and we couldn't wait to share them with our friends and family.“

“We hired E&B Photography to shoot our June 2023 wedding and were so thrilled with our experience - both in the planning and the day-of. Chris was very helpful during the initial inquiry stage, and was patient when we had to take longer than we thought to make a decision. They were very responsive and helped answer all of our questions.Our day-of-coordinator really enjoyed working with Chris and Christian, as did our friends and family. Many people remarked how efficient, professional and organized they were. We were able to get photos done sooner than expected and enjoy more of our cocktail hour (which was a highlight for us!)The photos are gorgeous and captured the day beautifully. They also took some film photos, which provide a different vibe - we love them all.We are happy to recommend E&B for your event!“

“I cannot say enough good things about Larissa. She was one of the absolute best decisions I made regarding our wedding. I was just looking for a few “money shots” of our wedding, you know, the photos you frame and hopefully end up on your grandkids wall one day. We have only gotten our “preview shots” back and she also already delivered SO much more than that. She managed to capture so many of the emotional moments of our big day but was never intrusive. She just somehow knows exactly where to be when to get the best photos. Also, my husband and I both usually feel a little awkward in front of the camera, but Larissa completely put us at ease. She was just fun to hang out with on our wedding day and all of that “awkwardness” melts away in the photos. Larissa is creative and artistic but also professional and organized. I trusted her completely the day of our wedding to make sure we stayed on our timeline and got all the photos we wanted (which was a big list!) She really understands weddings in general but also took the time to understand our wedding and us. She doesn't do many weddings a year, and so it really is a personalized experience. When everything is over, your photos are one of the only things you have to remember your wedding by. Looking at Larissa’s photos reminds me of all the joy of that magical day. She is absolutely an investment worth making. Honestly, my one regret is not finding room in my budget for her to photograph our other wedding events! Even after reading all her glowing reviews, if you are on the fence about hiring her, just follow her on Instagram. You'll see that wedding after wedding she makes magic.(Hopefully obvious, but Photo Credit: Larissa Cleveland Photography)“

“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.“

“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!“

“Gisele was patient, kind, attentive, and professional when taking photos to honor my mother's "Golden milestone," 50 years of service to Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc.“

“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.“

“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“

“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.“

“Jeff is an absolute expert. Even though our shoot was scheduled super last minute, he was able to move things around in his schedule to make it happen. We were doing a fairly decent sized concrete driveway and I just knew we needed his help capturing good footage. I’ve worked with some of the best in the Bay Area but Jeff’s work just has this crispness to it. He didn’t need a lot of time to produce it either, same day it was shot, videos and photos were in my inbox! Amazing stuff!!“

“I highly recommend Jenna! Jenna has been photographing my family for the past 5 years, starting with a fresh 48 session for our first baby to now family sessions to capture the fun moments. The photos have always been beautiful, numerous (we have a hard time picking which ones to place in our book) and represent that moment in our lives. Even though her presence is never imposing (we never really feel like there's a "photographer" there), her work shows off so many little details in beautiful moments.“

“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.“

“I received my album having been away for a few days and wow!!!!! I am so thrilled with the results. From the very first time I reached out and received Andy's response I knew I wanted to go ahead with this adventure. And what an adventure it's been. My only regret is that I didn't do it sooner! I'm so happy with the results and I had so much fun with her and her amazing make up artist on the day. Two awesome women with make up, a camera, some great lighting and champagne? Pretty perfect day! I felt beautiful, comfortable and most importantly had so much FUN. I have wonderful memories from this whole experience! I'm sure you're sick of hearing it but THANK YOU! It must be so fulfilling to have a job where you get to make women feel like the best versions of themselves.“

“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!!“

“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“

“I used Viscera Studio to jump start our new business. We focused on photos for our social media platforms that would tell the story of who we are and what we were about. I was so pleased with the images and Viscera even uploaded them with great captions so that I could easily post them with the click of a button. We used more of Viscera Studio's photos for our website which they designed. The job came complete with a tutorial for how to manipulate the website from the back-end. Great style and great people!“

“I really enjoyed the whole process of getting a professional shot done by Mary Small. She's truly got a knack for getting everything about the shot just right, and very good at getting that perfect expression. It's easy to dread having a photo taken of yourself, but Mary made it fun and easy and the result was superb. You'll be so glad you chose her for any and all of the portrait shots you and your family might need.“

“I found Sara Jennings Photography through Yelp and booked her for both a maternity and newborn shoot. I can't say enough good things about working with Sara! She made my husband and I feel SO comfortable as soon as we met her at our maternity shoot and we were blown away by the quality of her photos. Our newborn shoot was on another level entirely - Sara again was a joy to work with and was so good with our 2 week old baby to the point where our baby didn't cry once during the 3+ hour shoot! Sara knew we're baseball fans and suggested taking some spectacular photos of us and our baby outside Oracle Park. She even included our 2 cats in our family photos and got great solo shots of them. We absolutely loved working with her and are looking forward to working with her again in future!“

“Seamless experience from booking, visioning and shooting for professional headshots. Once we decided on a look, Fernando was quick yet detail oriented about scouting the perfect locations and lighting. He really knows how to put you at ease and get your best angle! I would recommend him to all my colleagues.“

“I can't say enough good things about Barbara and her work. She has an amazing eye and does such an exceptional job capturing the moment; but, also making you feel at home. I'm so in love with my law school graduation photos!!! If you are looking for an amazing photographer, Barbara is your go-to!“
