Looking for a photographer to capture your big moments, who makes you feel comfortable and beyond…read moreeasy to work with ? You have to work with Toanven Photography because you will not regret it at all and get everything you want and more!! Toan and team are the absolute very best - worked directly with Toan, Martin, Trieu, and Michael and all very professional and super easy to get along with! We used Toanven photography for our engagement photoshoot / pre wedding , church wedding ceremony at St.Jarlath Catholic Church and civil wedding at Nella terra cellars. Also used their videography services which was also really great. When looking for a photographer , we wanted to make sure that our photographer is easy going, can help guide us and has experience with our venue. I discovered Toanven photography because my best friend used their services for her wedding and after finding out Toan had lots of experience at Nella Terra we knew we had to meet him. On our first zoom call Toan was beyond welcoming and excited which made us excited. He made us laugh, made us comfortable and answered all of our questions and broke down the whole process. Before the wedding Toan helped us better plan our timeline for photos and took his time to understand what were the "must have photos". He gave us alternatives on how we can still get pictures with others and saving time. His advice on a family shot list was super helpful as well. On wedding day Toan was just the person I needed around me with all the craziness of wedding day. His personality bring calmness and he is quick to think if a photo location doesn't work well for the lighting - he found better positioning and areas for the photos the look flawless. Beyond helpful when it came to posing, how to stand , where to look and capture all the right angles. Lastly, Depending on the package you go for, you will get a set number of edits photos and our photos were so amazing it was hard to reach the number of edits we can use. That says a lot about how the quality of the photos are and how they already shine! So reach out to Toanven photography, I promise you will love every moment!

If you're looking for a photographer who really knows his craft, Toan at Toanvenphotography Studio…read moreis that guy. Came through his studio by Branham & Almaden and instantly felt like I was in good hands. Super chill, calm, and professional -- no ego, just pure passion for what he does. He's insanely dialed in with angles, lighting, and composition. The way he sets up shots and makes small adjustments shows how much detail he pays attention to. Nothing feels rushed, everything feels intentional. What really stands out is how comfortable he makes you feel in front of the camera. He gives clear direction without overdoing it, and somehow brings out your best look naturally. His eye for detail is next level -- from posture to shadows to background, he doesn't miss. You can tell he's someone who takes pride in his work and actually cares about delivering high-quality results, not just "getting the shot." The final photos came out clean, sharp, and professional -- honestly exceeded expectations. If you want someone who's skilled, patient, creative, and genuinely invested in making you look good, Toanvenphotography is it. Bay Area hidden gem for sure. Highly recommend.

Update: Rebecca reached out to me and asked me to delete my review. We had a few messages back…read moreand forth. I stand by my original 2 star rating. I did agree to make some edits. She made no effort to make things right or apologize for us having a bad experience. Edited review: In 2019, I took my first born when he was 2 weeks old to Rebecca to get some shots for a birth announcement. We went in for a shoot, she said it would be a few hundred $ for the shoot. We didn't ask for it, but she really wanted to do a "classic" naked baby shoot with him asleep. We should have just said no thank you. In hindsight, this is obvious, but we ended up getting pee'd and poo'd on. We had to leave, as we didn't have any more clean clothes. She offered to have us back a week later, which was nice. We came back, and the baby was more cooperative. 3 weeks later, she has us come in and review the photos, they looked great! She wanted to sell us prints. We were only interested in the digitals, we should have asked about this before the shoot. We only found out that the digitals would be more than a thousand $ additional after the shoot. It left us feeling pretty sour because our baby was now 6 weeks old, and we had no choice but to pay her. The photos came out nice, and everyone loved the birth announcement, but I still think about the bad experience we had when I look at them. New: I've now hired professional photographers for all 3 of my babies, and I have context to be confident that there are better options elsewhere that include digital in their base price, and don't have a dated business model that assumes you are buying prints.

I wanted the most important day of our lives to be remembered through amazing pictures. I just happened to stumble across Breanne and Fernando's Instagram page, and I am SO, SO happy that I did. It brought me comfort in knowing they are a husband and wife team, only because I felt like I had no idea what I was doing. They told me multiple times that they were there if I ever needed anything through out the planning process. Not only are they are very personable, and relatable, they put me at ease multiple times when we connected to talk about the wedding- it felt like we have known them for years, and not just spoke over the phone. Their turn around time is crazy quick. They were able to get us our entire gallery back within 2 and a half weeks after our New Years Day wedding. My husband I are were SO happy with how the photos came out. We heard nothing but compliments of the quality, editing, and overall picture taking. The details that Fernando caught on our wedding day, are ones that I will cherish forever. He also took the time to learn everyone's name that was in the bridal party, and was able to direct/pose us with no issues. The only thing I wish we had done more was take our engagement pics with them as well. I highly recommend Vivo Photography for your wedding day, you will not be disappointed.

This review is long over due. I met Breanna and Fernando at a wedding fair in San Francisco in my…read moreearly days of planning my wedding. From the minute I met them, I felt an instant connection with both of them. They were both kind and very professional from the start. They were 2 of the photographers we narrowed our search down to. We eventually went with them for their professionalism, sincere care for our needs, and cost. Our engagement pictures were amazing. Fernando guided us the whole time which was a big deal especially for my husband who hates being photographed and can be super awkward. I think lots of men have this issue :) Little did we know that our big wedding would be cancelled by a global pandemic 3 weeks before our big day. Breanna and Fernando worked with us patiently as we tried to find a new date and a new venue! They stayed the course with us. They prioritized us and reassured us that they would be there when the big day finally came. When we finally got married, they were attentive and captured the most beautiful photos of our wedding. It was such a beautiful day and I am so glad that they were there to help us with these special memories. Our gallery was delivered timely and the layout of the website they use is great. Overall, I would highly recommend Vivo Photographry! In fact I did. They also photographed my cousins wedding the same year. If you are looking for an amazing team to work with that can deliver on the final product, they are the perfect choice. Thank you Vivo Photographry!

She even surprised me with a bottle of champagne at my shoot, and we got an excellent shot with it. She edited my pictures in the amount of time she told me it would take.

These photos were for a graduation photoshoot, and he went above and beyond in capturing everything - not just ordinary photos, but also a lot of natural shots and suggested poses that I had never seen before (but was amazed with). He was punctual, thoughtful, and dedicated - on a sweltering morning in the direct sunlight! I recommend Ken without hesitation, and I hope he'll be available for all of my future special occasions. I should also mention that I am *incredibly* camera shy - I dislike taking photos, my smile is closer to a scowl, and I am robotic and often awkward with my poses and body movements. Ken was patient and kind, offering clear directions and helping me obtain an ideal picture. It really felt as if I was having a close friend taking my photos for a very special occasion - except Ken is a professional photographer and an amazing one at that. He truly knows how to capture meaningful moments so that their memories will last a lifetime.
