Arts District in DTLA before the ceremony
Christine C.

It is baffling why Cloak does not have a page on Yelp as they are one of the best wedding photographers in the business. Shopping for a wedding photographer can be daunting because there are so many great photographers in LA. After a while all of the photographers start to look the same. To help narrow things down, there are two things that Cloak does very well. They excel in low light (indoors, dark moody venues, rainy days) and epic, sweeping photos like the ones in movies or that fairy tale scene you have in your dreams. We found out about them through friends who had used them for their wedding last year. After a couple of emails back and forth, we set up a meeting at their brick and mortar store located in the Burbank mall. We met with Leon, the owner of Cloak and he showed us his portfolios as well as his videography. What struck us was how all his photos were able to tell a story and how his videos could capture all the beautiful, intimate moments of each wedding. Both photos and videos were made with movie-like editing and quality. Leon also specializes in Photoshop which he uses when making special edits. Want to look like you're in Disneyland, but you're in your Aunt Midred's backyard? Done. However, Leon was not available for our wedding date, so we chose Fernand, the second tier photographer. We were a bit hesitant since we would not be getting the top photographer at Cloak, so we were able to book a trial for something around $200. Our engagement shoot went great; Fernand was easy-going, funny, and open to ideas. He knew DTLA quite well and we traipsed around the city snapping photos, having the best time. We booked him shortly after. We got an amazing deal for both photography and videography somewhere around $5,000. He also offers a photobooth for something crazy low like $300+ if you book with him. Sold and sold. On the day of, Fernand arrived on time and ready to work. He came with team consisting of Noelle, his second photographer, and two videographers. All four of them were fun, easy-going, and flexible. Our wedding party was a goofy bunch and the Cloak team was able to fit in perfectly with them, getting fun shots as well as serious ones. We even had time to hop into a van and get a killer view of DTLA before our guests arrived. After about a month later, the pictures were ready to be viewed on their website. It comes with all the photos, a slideshow that showcases the best ones of the day, and the video. Make sure you choose the songs beforehand or they will choose one for you. It's best to go with 4 songs: 2 songs for the slideshow and 2 for the video. Make sure you have one slow paced one and one energetic one. I was blown away at how beautiful the pictures were. The photos sent chills up my spine as I re-lived every perfect moment of our wedding. The photo booth was also unique in that wedding guests could pick how many pictures they wanted printed out (e.g. 10 guests in one photobooth shot, 10 print-outs, one for each person. Truly awesome.) I cannot sing higher praises than this for Fernand and Cloak Photography, so I'll let the photos speak for themselves.

Cloak Photography is AMAZING! I chose to hire cloak for my wedding in October and it was the best decision I ever made. To start with, their photobooth pictures look profressional.... it's amazing. Leon and his team made everyone in the wedding party feel comfortable and gave incredible direction making for pictures that will last a life time in our family. They also got incredible candid shots of wedding guests which really captured the moment. Ultimately, the final product is amazing. I couldn't be happier!!!!!

My wife and I first discovered this dynamic duo known as Chasing Pleasures roughly three years ago…read morefor my daughters First Christmas, photo shoot. The pictures came out amazing and so surreal! Everybody loved them and to this day still getting compliments. Since then, they have steadfastly become our go-to Photographer without any hesitation. Most recently we hired them for my second daughters cake smash shoot and #Wow. They never cease to amaze me with the eye they have, their sense of taste, props, setting and all that they have! I'm utterly amazed at their team work and dedication to the craft. The way one grabs a shade while the other snaps a shot and simultaneously arranges props and makes my child smile for the picture. It has always flowed so smooth you would even say that this entire shoot was rehearsed! I like that they don't do copycat work with cliché shots. Everything they do has an amazing Chasing Pleasures touch to it and we love every second! Besides their work, they have become friends and two of the nicest people, truly, that you will every meet! They even assisted with our bags to the car and my babies absolutely love them so that's always a good sign! You've got clients for life guys! Salut!

We hired Roman for our upcoming wedding and decided to get to know him during an engagement photo shoot, and I'm SO glad we did! From the very beginning, Roman was completely understanding and professional, especially when I couldn't make up my mind about things. He's actually made the busyness of this wedding planning season so much easier. Roman instantly felt like a friend and has this warm and calm vibe that made it easy for us to be ourselves. And, not to mention, all of the images we got back (in less than a week!) were exactly what we had hoped for and more. My fiance and I truly feel like he captured US in these images and we can't wait to see what Roman captures during our wedding next year. Booking him for your wedding will easily be one of the best decisions you can make!

What I really loved and appreciated was he was prepared with inspo photos, and he made sure we did every single one that I had wanted. He's a visionary and brought mine to life! I am so happy I went with Roman and would pick him again and again. Highly recommend for all your photography needs. I've seen some of the events (weddings, engagements, etc) that he's done and each photo is better than the last. Thanks Roman for such a fun experience! Already looking forward to the next.

We truly don't know how to thank you for being such an incredible leader, organizer, detail-oriented professional, and team player. From the moment we started working with you, we felt completely taken care of, and on our wedding day, you and your team made everything feel effortless. We genuinely enjoyed every single moment spent with you and your team. Choosing you was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding, and we couldn't be happier with your professionalism, talent, and dedication. Thank you again for everything. We hope to see you all again soon, and we can't wait to work with you for our future celebrations and milestones. With gratitude, Arineh & Ernest

I have truly never experienced a photography team as incredible as Jay and his team. From this…read morepoint forward, Jay will always be the first person I call for any special event in my life. I genuinely mean it when I say I would plan an event around his availability just to make sure he's the one there capturing it. My wedding morning started off as an absolute mess, and somehow Jay helped turn what could have been such a stressful day into one of the most beautiful and memorable nights of my life. He went so far beyond being our photographer. When something went wrong, he stepped in to help. When certain photos earlier in the day didn't turn out the way we had dreamed, he made sure we still got the pictures we had envisioned. He paid attention to every little detail and somehow always knew exactly what needed to be done without us even having to ask. The patience Jay and his entire team had with us was unbelievable. I truly cannot thank them enough. But what made this experience so special was that it became about so much more than photography. Jay's personality, his heart, and the energy he brings with him are incredibly rare. You can tell he genuinely cares about the people in front of his camera and about making their day as special as possible. I would never consider another photographer after this experience. And coming from a client, I can confidently say Jay should be charging even more than he does, because the experience he gives you is worth every single penny and so much more. Jay, thank you for not only capturing one of the most important days of our lives, but for becoming such an unforgettable part of it.

From the beginning, Emil was professional, responsive, and incredibly easy to work with. Neither of us is particularly used to being in front of the camera, but he made the experience comfortable and natural. On our wedding day, he did a wonderful job capturing not only the important moments, but also so many candid shots of our family and friends genuinely enjoying themselves. Looking through the finished gallery and seeing how happy everyone looked brought back so many great memories from the day. We also really appreciated how accommodating Emil was with the specific photos and ideas we wanted to capture, while still using his own experience and creativity throughout the day. We ended up with so many beautiful photos that we'll be able to look back on for years to come. We're very grateful to Emil for helping us document such an important time in our lives and would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a photographer for their wedding or special event.

Since our first correspondence, we knew she was the perfect fit - she understood the vibe we wanted for our wedding photography (relaxed and grounded), was always a step ahead of us in correspondence, and reminded us of important key milestones throughout planning. Day-of, her expertise shone and she went above and beyond. She took her time reviewing the venue to make sure she knew the perfect photo spots. While capturing pictures, she had the perfect balance of creating a relaxing atmosphere while still providing great direction and guidance to fulfill her artistic vision. She would roll with the punches with photo requests while also making sure we hit all of the important ones. Not only that, but she was a joy to be around - she is funny, caring, and sweet. She delivered a sneak peek at a lighting speed and we are already SO in love with the photos! She is truly a master at her craft and we couldn't recommend her more.
