    King wedding at Japanese Gardens, CSULB
    Connor K.

    My wife and I had a great experience working with Ambrosia during both planning and the day of our wedding. They have had many years of experience working with our venue in Long Beach but at the same time were willing to create a unique experience for us catered to our vision of the big day. The pictures and video turned out better than we imagined, our guests had a blast in the photo booth, and the bridal party's hair and makeup turned out great. They even offered free photo workshops leading up to the wedding so we could practice and get the most out of our wedding photos. The entire staff was friendly, enthusiastic, and generally seemed ecstatic to be working our wedding. Ambrosia was quick to respond to us when we had questions or concerns. Highly recommend especially if you are having your wedding at the Japanese Gardens at Cal State University Long Beach.

    My husband and I are so happy that we chose this company to perform their services at our wedding, their prices worked well with our budget. From the very beginning of our day, they documented the precious moments before our wedding, limo service to our venue, their photographer, videographer, and the rest of their amazing team, surpassed our expectations! The edited version of our video was flawless and we could not have made a better choice to immortalize our very special day! They captured every single priceless moments from the beginning to the end. I give ambrosia two thumbs up and a job well done!!!

    We used Ambrosia for our wedding back in Sept. 23, 2017. Allen and his team really went above and beyond to make sure our wedding was everything we envisioned and more.. we got a package deal which was a great price and saved us the hassle of getting multiple vendors. They will happily customize your package to accommodate your needs. We got our photo/video as well as DJ, makeup & hair & even lighting for our venue.. makeup & hair were amazing khaye knew exactly the look I wanted to go for & she did exactly that. Walter & Michael did a great job with photos and video.. they even offer workshops for people that are camera shy so that they can learn to get more comfortable for the big day.. I don't know of any other company that offers that.. ourf dj was amazing, he even stayed extra since we were having so much fun.. I definitely reccomend Ambrosia for any event. They are very friendly and really get to know their clients on a pesosnal level which I love.. I will definitely use them again.

    Captured our country rustic theme in every way!

    First, I want to thank Ambrosia events for doing our engagement photos. Michael was our photographer and the first initial contact for ambrosia. He has been great with ensuring that all is promised with the package deal we got with their company. We were very impressed with how great of a job Michael did for our engagement shoot. The pictures came out great!!! So many compliments we got for the pictures. Michael was very professional and fun to work with. We had such a great time taking the photos. We can't wait to see our wedding photos. A special thank you to Michael for capturing these special moments. See you in November.

    Going with Ambrosia Event Services is one of the best choices we made for our wedding! Walter, Adam, Andrew and Michael are AWESOME! The team showed up early to check out the venue on my wedding day. They found great spots for pictures. They made sure to capture all the pictures I wanted, including getting ready, first look, bride and bridesmaids, family and friends. They were the first vender to show up and the last ones to leave. I honestly don't think my photographers took any break on my wedding day. No matter where I went, when I turned around, they were right there ready to take more pictures of us. Michael was operating the photo booth and he was very friendly to everyone. He brought a bunch props which made the photo booth super fun. Andrew, our videographer, even brought his drone to get the aerial views of our wedding. Michael made sure that we got our wedding pictures before Thanksgiving (around two weeks from our wedding) so we can show these pictures to our family. We are waiting on the video and photo booth pictures which will be mailed to us. Ambrosia was so easy to work with. This is an honest and dedicated company! Everything was seamless. They only hire people who are passionate about their jobs.They offered so many services including photoshoot seminars, dance lessons (huge shout out to Amanda, the best instructor ever) etc. This is the one stop shop that all couples should know.

    It was a tough choice to make, but this was definitely my favorite out of the many beautiful prom pictures that Allen took!
    Jazzmine M.

    Allen has done it once again for me and my friends' beautiful prom pictures and a great deal on a limo! Not only is it the quality and the efficiency that I appreciate from Allen and the Ambrosia crew, but it is definitely the interaction that he has with every single one of his clients. This is my second service from Allen, after I had uplighting and photography from my 18th birthday, and his photography and overall services never fail to exceed my expectations! I highly commend you on your work, Allen.

    Amazing!

If you want to re-live your big day over and over again years later, James is your guy! My wife and I had never done a professional photoshoot. Neither of us are particularly comfortable in front of the camera. After interviewing 5 different photographers, we knew from our first conversation that James was the one. He is incredibly friendly, easy going, and knowledgeable. We agreed to do an engagement session, 1 location for 90mins to see if we'd be comfortable working with James. It couldn't have gone better. Initially, we were a bit stiff, but James gave us tips on how to act naturally, suggested poses and hand positions that made us feel and look relaxed. The time flew by and we actually ended up going to a second location with a wardrobe change. Overall, it was about 2 hours. James did not mind at all. In fact, he probably could've gone longer if the sun hadn't set on us! Our photos were edited and received in less than 2 weeks! James was kind enough to print a large poster and sign that shipped to our house in just a few days. He price matched any package/prints from other photographers. Having gone through our engagement session seamlessly, we hired James to shoot our wedding as well. He and an assistant were on site for 10 hours, tending to our every need and keeping us on our timeline. After our planned family/wedding party photos, we hardly even noticed them working as we proceeded with wedding events. After the wedding, we received many compliments on how great James was and several guests asked for his contact information. Within a couple of days, we received a preview of about 20 photos highlighting our big day. We were thrilled! Every important moment was captured so elegantly! The full magazine of photos was available for download in about 1 month. James then worked with us to print a high quality photo book for our coffee table. You can't go wrong with James--his high quality work and work ethic speak for themselves. There is no substitute for how easy and stress free he made us feel, so that we could truly enjoy ourselves knowing that he would capture every single moment candidly. Do not hesitate to hire James, it will be the best decision you will ever make.

    An unforgettable experience captured perfectly -- thank you, James!…read more I had the honor of graduating from both LACC and UCLA Extension, and I'm so grateful that James was there to capture every important moment. From our first communication, he was extremely professional, flexible, and kind, always making sure he understood what I wanted and adapting to each location, timeline, and change with ease. He photographed both ceremonies with incredible attention to detail -- from candid moments of me with my husband, family, and friends, to emotional highlights like walking across the stage, and even the quiet, heartfelt moments in between. His eye for storytelling brought every part of the day to life. James made everyone feel comfortable, and his warm presence truly added to the celebration. He treated both graduations with care and dedication, and I couldn't have asked for a better photographer to help preserve these milestones. If you're looking for someone reliable, talented, and genuinely passionate about their work -- James is the one. Thank you again for capturing these beautiful memories that my loved ones and I will treasure forever!

It was important to us to find a quality photographer with an eye for some of the artsy/moody photos we were hoping for. Enter Eve who really did come and save the day. From the moment we met, she was so kind and showed a true interest in getting to know us as a couple. She was an absolute rock star during our wedding. We had a larger wedding (150 ppl) and she handled it with grace; always staying patient but giving direction confidently when need be. One of our favorite things Eve did was our private vows. We were considering scrapping it as it might be too complicated logistically, but Eve knew how important that time would later be and moved quick to find a quiet spot to make it happen. That really set the tone for my now wife and I, and was one of our most cherished moments on our wedding day. And the photos! We just received our full gallery and they're so beautiful! We feel so lucky to have worked with Eve. I would absolutely recommend her and hope to work with her again some day. Thank you Eve!

As an LGBTQ+ wedding, she made us feel totally at ease, included, and best of all - special! We booked Eve for our June 2024 wedding after meeting her at a friends' wedding and from the jump we connected with each other and I knew she was going to be perfect for our wedding. Eve is a great communicator and was fun to work with. We organized an incredible engagement shoot and it was delightful to see Eve's creativity at work. The shots turned out amazingly too, and we received rave reviews from family and friends! For the wedding itself, Eve sent an easy worksheet for us to complete of all family / friend photos, along with some helpful tips for how to stay hydrated and prepared the day-of. At the wedding, Eve made us feel at easy and never asked for too much. We also had plenty of time to actually enjoy the evening! And to top if off, the photographs perfectly capture the energy and mood of the event! Thank you Eve!

    This is going to be a semi long review but trust us, it's worth the read. If there was a rating…read morescale higher than 5 stars it would be 10+! We were planning our destination wedding in Cancun, Mexico and due to some last minute changes, we needed a photographer within 2 months of the event. We interviewed quite a few photographers and only one really stood out. Two Fourteen is run by an amazing couple (Virath and Krizelle) and they had an equally awesome second photographer with them (Esther). They offered us a great 10 hour coverage package which included up to 2 hours of non-wedding activities, versatility in flying out, an extra photographer, sneak peek photos within 2 days and so much more. If you want timeless, candid, light / airy, elegant, professional and crispy photos :), look no further. With their beautiful photography as well as their welcoming / fun personality, contagious smiles, and sheer enthusiasm, it made for an easy choice. We felt comfortable and confident as they created timelines, schedules, meetings and provided constant updates. They went above and beyond to accommodate and even got down on the dance floor after a couple of drinks ;). They are some of the most passionate people we have ever seen work: they glow with enthusiasm, are fun, personable and professional. Virath shines with his passion and love for photography, Krizelle is a gem who is clear and organized and Esther is fun, concise and meticulous. If you want "choreographed" photos... easy-peasy. If you want candid shots... it's covered. If you need flat lays or accents... done. If you have concerns on timelines, don't worry, they've already built in buffers. They excelled in every aspect and made sure to capture the magic for our very special day. Some specific details that we appreciated: 1. They were proactive and spent time introducing themselves to our vendors and coordinating with them ahead of the wedding. 2. Two Fourteen also does videography, so they knew how to work with the videographers, even giving them directions and suggestions. 3. Krizelle had an emergency pack on her that had Advil / Tylenol which came in handy as the bridal party had a migraine come on in the middle of the day. 4. While we were getting ready, any coordination that needed to happen with vendors, they handled it for us (e.g. reaching out to our wedding planners and flower vendors to ensure florals were brought over for detail photos). 5. They helped pose us for almost all of our photos, fixed our hair, fluffed dresses, got us drinks, and more. Something you don't realize is that your photographers are there with you for pretty much every moment of your day (more so than any other vendor - even your wedding planner). They're like your personal assistants and secondary wedding coordinators, not to mention your personal hype-men throughout the entire day. After planning a wedding for over a year, it was truly a pleasure and a weight off of our shoulders to have such a dedicated team instill confidence in our decision. Their focus was undeniable and we felt like we made friends in the process. We rarely write reviews but this one was definitely warranted. Don't think twice, pictures are forever!

    Krizelle and Virath are the full package. Not only are they consummate professionals at the top of…read moretheir game, they have the gift of making everyone they work with feel comfortable and at ease - particularly in front of the camera. They are the most hardworking and kind individuals in the room and beyond talented at capturing moments even through the chaos children and dogs can bring. Their work speaks for itself, but if I can I'd also like to humbly vouch for their incredible work ethic, nuanced understanding and talent for managing different group dynamics, keen ability to suss out and go above and beyond the needs of their clients, and just for being incredible human beings. Krizelle and Virath put so much heart into their work and I couldn't recommend them more highly!
