We had the absolute best experience with our wedding photographer! From the very beginning, she…read morebrought such a warm, positive energy that instantly put us at ease. On a day that can feel a little overwhelming, she somehow managed to keep everything fun, relaxed, and running smoothly. Not only is she incredibly talented, but she also has an amazing eye for capturing those genuine, candid moments that make the day so special. She didn't just take photos--she told the story of our wedding in the most beautiful, authentic way. Looking through our pictures feels like reliving the entire day all over again. She was also so easy to work with--responsive, organized, and genuinely invested in making sure everything turned out exactly how we hoped. Our family and friends even commented on how great she was to be around! If you're looking for someone who is professional, creative, and brings the best energy to your big day, I truly cannot recommend her enough. We're so grateful we chose her!

We feel so incredibly lucky to have had Amanda Wei as our wedding photographer. Our wedding was…read morethrown together in just two weeks, and somehow everything aligned so that my first-choice photographer was available. The moment I met Amanda, it was a complete no-brainer. I just knew she was the one. Because our timeline came together so quickly, we didn't have a ton of structure going into the day--but whether she realized it or not, Amanda gave us that structure. From our initial meeting to sitting down with us again the week of the wedding to connect as a couple and walk through the timeline, she was intentional and thoughtful. I loved that she wanted to truly get a feel for us--our love story, our hopes, our dreams--not just the logistics of the day. It made everything feel so personal. On the wedding day, she was kind, personable, and carried such a light, calming spirit. She was incredibly efficient, and we felt like we made the absolute most of our time with her. She gave clear direction while still making us feel natural and comfortable, making sure we looked and felt our best. Even our friend who officiated (and has been to countless weddings) said she was hands down the best wedding photographer he's ever seen. Amanda took advantage of every photo opportunity possible, maximizing the city landscape in such a beautiful way. She even handled intense wind like a total pro! And the sneak peek she sent us afterward? Absolutely stunning. We were blown away. If you're looking for someone talented, organized, warm, and deeply invested in telling your story well, Amanda is it. We couldn't be more grateful.

We cannot recommend Constance enough! After our original photographer did a complete no call, no…read moreshow for our newborn son's photo shoot, we were stressed, disappointed, and worried we'd miss those precious early moments. She truly came to the rescue. Not only did she respond quickly, but she was able to fit us into her schedule within just a few days. From the moment she arrived, she was professional, calm, and incredibly patient with our newborn. She handled our son with such care and made the entire experience feel relaxed and enjoyable during what can be a very overwhelming time for new parents. The photos turned out absolutely stunning -- more beautiful than we could have imagined. She captured the sweetest little details and moments that we will treasure forever. Her talent, kindness, and willingness to step in last-minute meant so much to our family. If you're looking for someone reliable, compassionate, and exceptionally talented, look no further. We are beyond grateful for her and would book her again in a heartbeat!

Constance approached me in Rockridge when I was super pregnant at the end of October - she shared…read moreher business card, and I checked out her website. Really liking her style of photography, we scheduled a newborn photo session with Constance at the end of November with our two week old son. Constance was incredibly responsive and professional. Not only that, she is a baby photo whisperer - she had a bunch of helpful suggestions to help our time together go smoothly. She brought a whole bag of adorable outfits and props, and she was happy to let us choose some of our own outfits, too. For this session we decided to stay home and take photos around our house and yard, and they turned out beautifully. We are so pleased with these special keepsakes! Constance also made it easy to review the raw photo collection after the shoot, choose the ones we wanted, and deliver the final files all online. She also offers large size prints! In the future I'd love to do an on-location shoot with our son in the redwoods of Oakland. I already have ideas :) Thank you, Constance!

Jessie has a rare gift: she makes you feel seen before she ever picks up the camera…read more I came to Luminous Space for personal branding photography, not entirely sure how to show up or what I wanted the images to say about me. Jessie held the whole thing with such steady presence that the uncertainty dissolved quickly. She asked the right questions, created real ease in the space, and then got out of the way and let the session breathe. The editing is exceptional. The final images are honest and alive, not overproduced. They look like me on my best day, which is exactly what this kind of work requires. If you are a founder, practitioner, or creative who needs photographs that actually carry your essence, Jessie is the real thing.

Buyer beware. The shoot went fine, but the photo I got out of it was not…read more First of all, note that she only releases *one* photo to you--one raw and one edited version! This is not at all clear from the website marketing, which states: * Photos Taken: 30-50 images * Retouched Images: 1 professionally edited photo (selected on-site) Apparently you also get only 1 raw image, though this is not stated. You have to immediately go through a lengthy three-phase process to choose that photo --no consulting with friends/partners. Okay, so maybe I should have found the fine print, but it turns out "professionally edited" means "created by AI." It generated an image that looks like a 25-year-old digital avatar of me, quite different from the original photo. The website also claims that "We offer 2 rounds of free revisions," but I have not received a response a week after asking for one. So, I'm using the raw image, which is fine.
