I contacted this lady from Alankar wedding decorator for my wedding decoration. Please stay away…read morefrom her. She is the worst vendor I have ever met, she lies that she can do any kind of design. First conversation she would make is, ask for her competitors quote and says I can give you lower price than them. She never suggest any new design or make any effort to show on new designs all she wants is about her competitors picture and quote so pathetic. She has no creativity all she does is just copies her competitors and tell she does it for less. When I asked her lot of questions about her style design, and if she is confident on doing new designs she got lost and started saying you are fake, you are a cheap client, you have no budget and she started barging me with lies. She even said I'm accusing her and playing dirty games she said I know who you are. Oh god it was non stop just stay away from this lady. My parents looked at her texts and were very upset, they called her immediately, no one picked up and voicemail was full. I had to block her. She has lost her mind. We decided to go with other decorator. It's unfortunately I contacted her Below in her comments clearly shows that she is lying. I have no time for her nonsense and she is a big liar. She has nothing new to offer just asks for her competitors quotes and copies them

Shobha Shastry is amazing. She runs and IS Alankar, and is completely, your safety net…read more She ran my wedding in July, she did all of the decor, she gave me contacts, she gave advice to the white Irish girl whose in-laws live in San Diego, while we planned the wedding in Massachusetts. Sometimes she's a little hard to get a hold of/to get to call you back, however she ALWAYS comes through in the clutch. She is a very busy lady, and has at least 1 wedding every weekend, but when it comes to the date of your event, you feel like you are the only one. I don't know what I would have done without this woman, I shudder at the thought. I can't thank Shobha enough for all of her help, her calm demeanor, and her keeping me sane.

Had Snap n Flash at my wedding earlier this month and they were great. Two guys staffed the booth…read moreand they were very nice and helpful to my multi-generational crowd! Everyone loved the photobooth, from kids to growns. It worked out great for me as I didn't have to do favors and it was a fun activity too. I had around 136 people and it definitely got heavy use. Highly recommended! My husband and I love the album they put together for us to keep.

I was looking for a photo booth rental for my son's graduation party. I had found one using…read moreGroupon for another company but their "booth" required a 10 foot ceiling and the venue I was hosting it at only had 8 foot ceilings. I really wanted to get one as my son told me that they had one for his prom and all the kids loved it! After searching the internet, I was so lucky to find this photo booth service on Amazon Local . I was a little weary since I looked up on Yelp and there were no reviews of the company. I exchanged emails with the owner and he told me that they were relatively new but they were experienced photographers and were branching out in this arena. They also had a "booth" that would fit my needs. From the initial email, they were professional and very accommodating. They were able to customize the backdrop and color of my son's high school's colors and wrote what we wanted displayed on the pictures. They had a variety of pics to pick from and costumes to make the pictures funny and really entertaining for all of us. We all used the photo booth, from young teens to adults. It was the perfect "entertainment" for the party and would add flair and fun to any occasion! I was so happy with the entire process. It was quick to book and easy to do the contract. The operators were pleasant and very accommodating to my guests. Everyone was commenting how awesome they were and how great of an idea it was to have there. Everyone got to take home their pictures instantly and within a week, I had the CD of everyone's pictures and relived the entire night. Thank you!! I highly recommend them!

Kayla was mediocre at best. We hired her to take candids and capture the key moments of our small,…read moreintimate, condensed wedding. We did also provide a short list of combinations of people we wanted to capture. Many of these were missed and Kayla thought it was ok to skip the groom. The photos we received were unflattering with odd poses, off smiles, and eyes looking in different directions.

Wow, five stars for Kayla. My husband and I DO NOT photograph well and I was so worried that we…read morewould spend hours taking photos at our wedding and hate them all. BUT THEN KAYLA came into our lives!!!! Every single photo is a GEM. I love them all and will post my favorites. Besides the quality of photos, Kayla herself i amazing. She communicates frequently and efficiently. I had her email and her cell if I ever needed her. We met her once at her gorgeous studio and another time over the phone to plan pre wedding stuff. But the DAY OFF she blew me away. She was on time, prompt and on point. She tended to me and checked in to see if I needed water or how I was feeling, things not even photography related. She was patient and precise with her directions for my family taking photos. They all raced how they loved how they got the shots outside quickly so the older members of the family could go back inside and sit. She brought these lights for the dance floor that made all the action shots look amazing. I can't even go on enough about how awesome Kayla is and how you should book her immediately. I don't want to ruin any little surprises for any future brides but I will tell you that Kayla sends you little gifts before the wedding and after that show how much she cares. Little personal touches to remind you that your event wasn't just a job for her, that she cares about you as a couple. I even chat with her about house decor and recommended floor cleaners for her!!! Why are you still reading this review??? BOOK HER NOW!!!

I have to say that her calming manner and years of experience are keys to her success. My session was done completely remote and within 30 minutes.

Will recommend her to all who could leverage her digital photography experience and skills. Thank you Nicole

Within 24 of my house hitting the MLS with Andy's pics front and center I got a great offer at 99% of asking price! I mean if that doesn't speak volumes I don't know what else would. He has a great eye for detail and will show your home in the best possible light. Not to mention he has the patience of a saint (I can be opinionated and stubborn)...but he knows just how much to bend (ok we can photoshop this vase full of kitchen gadgets out of the pic) but without letting me get too crazy ("whoa - lets make sure we represent the place as it really looks in the present". ). Couldn't recommend him more highly.

There are no words to describe what an absolute joy Melissa was to work with for our wedding and…read morehow extremely talented she is. For so long I dreamt of having pictures of our wedding that captured our love, our family, our friend, and that I felt beautiful in. The pictures that Melissa took far exceed every expectation that I had and then some! It started with a phone call and I immediately felt very comfortable with Melissa like I was talking to a friend I had known for years as I described our day and some of the personalities of our wedding guests. She assured me it wouldn't be a problem at all and she was absolutely right. From start to finish, Melissa was amazing at communicating with us and provided us with some suggestions that helped our day flow smoothly and ensured that we got all the pictures we wanted. The day of the wedding, Melissa fit right in with my family and friends, which made everyone very relaxed, and she went above and beyond to make things comfortable. She was also extremely flexible as we ran slightly behind schedule that day. I was also amazed with how quickly she sent us our pixie set. To say our pictures were breathtaking is an understatement! She truly captured our love in each picture and allowed us to relive our day through the pictures. I cried looking at some of the pictures because they were just so beautiful. We were extremely happy from start to finish and I can't recommend her enough. We can't wait to work with Melissa again in the future!

I knew she was the perfect person for my rebrand, which involved photos and videos. Melissa is super friendly, easy to work with, and professional. Additionally, she is extremely talented and creative. I gave her a vision that I had in my mind and she magically created the most amazing photos and videos .. they exceeded my expectations. The best part was that she captured... ME... my true voice and look for my business. Even my web developers were super impressed by all the photos/videos and how cohesive my new brand looks now because of Melissa's work. I can't wait to show off my new website & new look. If you are looking for a branding photoshoot or new headshots, don't do it yourself.. don't have your friend do it. Hire a professional.. hire Melissa.. you won't regret it.. she is awesome! Attached are some favorites of my branding session with her.
