Once we decided to host our wedding at Lido House, Sarah was the only option we considered to be…read moreour photographer. My instincts told me that a photographer with prior experience at our venue would show up in the pictures themselves. Lo and behold, they did! Sarah was an impeccable director throughout our Welcome Party & Wedding + Reception. She has the golden finger with her camera and was able to capture us (we're camera shy), our family and our friends perfectly. Everyone was so impressed with her rapid turnaround on our Sneak Peeks. The joy of reliving our Wedding and being able to share these moments with vendors and guests is priceless. She was worth every penny and is even featured on the front page of Lido's Events Pamphlet. We cannot thank her enough for providing us with the best keepsake from our special weekend. We'll be reliving these moments for decades to come!

She photographed our engagement shoot, our legal ceremony in Beverly Hills, and our big celebration in Culver City, and every experience with her was fantastic. She was incredibly easy to work with, communicated clearly, and really listened to what we wanted. She helped us feel comfortable and natural in front of the camera, and the photos reflect that. They are beautiful, joyful, and full of genuine candid moments between us, which is exactly what we hoped for. Sarah is an incredibly skilled photographer, and the composition of her shots was breathtaking! She also brought such a calm, grounding presence to each event, which made the whole process feel easy and fun. We absolutely love our photos and recommend her 10/10!!!

From start to finish, everything felt easy, relaxed, and enjoyable. Brittany has a natural way of making us comfortable during the shoot and provides great feedback. They offer a great selection of outdoor locations with beautiful backgrounds and lighting! Another thing we really appreciated was how quickly the photos were delivered each time. We received a link to a photo gallery, and got to choose our favorites from those. The turnaround time was just a few days! We're so grateful for their talent and professionalism, and we would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for stunning, heartfelt photos!

The photo studio is located inside AR Galleria (the main galleria entrance was locked on Sunday afternoon so I had to enter through the side door via Cafe Lowell). [Parking]: Easy and free parking in the large plaza. [Reservation]: I was able to call and book a same-day reservation on Sunday. Visitors can also make an online reservation via the studio's website. Upon arrival, I scanned a QR code and signed a waiver before the owner started my 5-minute photo session. [Price]: $27 for 4 physical copies and digital copies to download via email (must be downloaded within 7 days). I did not initially receive an email, but I emailed the owner the next day about the download link and he sent a follow-up email with the link within a few hours (the email was hidden in my spam folder). The email included all the pictures taken during the session. The shop also makes photo keychains ($4+ each). The studio also offers 15-minute and 30-minute self-portrait sessions. [Studio]: While I was here for a passport photo, the studio mainly operates as a self-portrait studio where customers take photos of themselves. This small studio has all the props and camera setup needed to make it happen. [Process]: The owner had me sit on a chair and took 7 pictures. Out of the 7 pictures taken, I was able to choose one for him to print while the rest of pictures can be downloaded via a link in an email. It was more important to receive a digital copy because the US passport renewal process requires applicants to upload a digital photo rather than submit a physical copy. I was able to use one of the digital copies and now that same picture will be on my passport for the next 10 years before the next renewal timeline. [Conclusion]: Overall it was an efficient process and I was able to walk in and out within 15 minutes. However, it would be helpful for the studio to provide additional entry instructions on the website when the main galleria entrance is locked.

I am rewriting my review of OC Event Photos because even after four years, looking at our proposal…read morephotos still makes us disappointed and sad. We planned this proposal for about a month with Corey and specifically discussed capturing the actual proposal moment. Unfortunately, the photographer missed a significant part of it and only started recording after my proposal was already underway. This was a once-in-a-lifetime moment that cannot be recreated. The photos themselves were also extremely disappointing. Our faces had heavy, distracting shadows even though this was a summer daytime shoot. We received fewer photos than we expected based on what was promised, and the quality was below what we were expecting. The photographer's attitude made the experience worse. He arrived without even saying hello and left without saying goodbye. For something as personal and important as a proposal, the entire interaction felt cold and unprofessional. When we complained, Corey defended the photographer rather than finding a meaningful way to make things right. After we posted our experience on Yelp, the situation turned into arguments over our review and requests that we remove it. What bothered me most was that there seemed to be more effort put into getting the negative review removed than into resolving why we were unhappy in the first place. We also paid through Venmo, which left us with very limited options when we were unhappy with the service. Based on my experience, I would strongly recommend using a payment method that provides purchase protection when hiring any photographer for an important event. Four years later, this still bothers us. Instead of having beautiful photos that bring back a happy memory, we look at them and remember how badly such an important moment was captured. I am not removing my review simply because the business does not like it. This is my experience and my opinion as a customer. For an event that only happens once, I would not trust OC Event Photos again.

I have been meaning to post this review since September, but life has gotten in the way. I think to…read moredo it like, every few days, since I want everyone to know how amazing this company was for my wedding. Corey is fun, professional and knowledgeable. I worked in production for a long time and had no shortage of potential wedding photographers, but the decision to go with OC Event Photos was a super easy one. He and his crew were on time (early, actually!) and he took calls with me before the wedding to ensure things were lined up properly. At the wedding, he was both fun to hang out with and also a brilliant photographer. Then, after the wedding, he turned around the photos quickly and they looked AMAZING. He is a great editor also (v important). Listen. Your wedding will go by in a flaaaash. It's cool to cut corners on many, many wedding related things (who needs personalized napkins like are you serious) but do not skimp on the photographer(s). Your photos are your only tangible takeaway from the entire experience. They will open doors for memory and closeness and conversation forever. Go with a legit company -- actually just go with OC.
