Ditto also specializes in film photography - for photography geeks, he uses a medium format camera for his portraiture. Ditto is so kind - we asked him to do some B/W photography and he even brought another film camera with B/W film loaded just for us. If I could give 6/5 stars, I would. From the beginning, Ditto has always been extremely personable, professional, and responsive. I would recommend working with him if he is available on your date.

I can't say enough about how incredible Heather is to work with, and how beautiful the results are…read more She was incredibly patient with our newborn, and took so much time and care during the session to create a welcoming environment for the baby and her brother. She worked very closely with us in selecting a flattering color palette and introducing textures that would suit the baby. Her style is very gentle and easygoing; she spends the time to really get to know a family and pays attention to all the details that go into a shoot. When the photos came out, we were truly blown away--they were all so tender and stunning, showcasing not just the miracle of birth, but all the familial love and tenderness. I cannot stop looking at them! We were so delighted that we opted for an album keepsake. I was impressed with how much care and time Heather took making every page perfect, and how she collaborated so well with us. My son is an amateur artist, and she welcomed and integrated all his inputs and built on top of them to create something we will treasure for many years. I wholeheartedly recommend Heather to any family--she is a true artist, and we will definitely be returning to capture more precious moments!

From the moment we booked, she was warm, organized, and incredibly communicative. On our special day, she balanced professionalism and friendliness perfectly and kept us on schedule without ever making us feel rushed or posed. Her calm energy honestly helped keep everyone relaxed and in the moment. She captured everything, literally has eyes everywhere lol, the big emotions, the tiny details, the candid magic between guests, and the kind of moments you don't even realize are happening until you see them in photos. When we received our gallery we were speechless. The photos were stunning, vibrant, and truly felt like us. What stood out the most was how intentional she was. She listened to what was important to us, honored our vision, and somehow made it even better. If you want someone who is talented, thoughtful, reliable, and genuinely invested in your day, please book with Jennifer. Booking her was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. We are forever grateful for the memories she preserved for us. 11/10 would choose her a thousand times over.

I actually found Jennifer after searching online for photographers in San Francisco and her work immediately stood out. Her style felt fresh and unconventional -- more documentary and journalistic than traditional -- and I especially loved her use of black and white photography, which was a big reason we chose her. The day started at our hotel, where she jumped between our separate rooms to capture my wife and me getting ready. Before she had even gotten to our rooms, she had already scouted the perfect location for our first look. The moment was absolutely incredible, and she handled everything; we didn't have to do a thing but follow her lead. That professional confidence continued at City Hall. She has a masterful familiarity with the building. She took full control of the shoot, guiding us as she told us exactly where to stand, how to pose, and where to move next so we could just relax and enjoy the moment. As a photographer myself, I really appreciated her confidence and professionalism. All we had to do was follow instructions and be present. She knows San Francisco City Hall inside and out -- the lighting, the angles, the timing, and the key locations that truly matter -- every shot felt deliberate and it showed. The technical skill here is top-notch-- the compositions were beautiful, the balance of each frame was spot-on, and her gorgeous color grading. We received around 300 images, and the quality is so consistent that I plan to print every last one of them in large format to ensure we have a permanent physical archive. When we received the final package, we were so touched -- she sent our photos on a beautiful USB drive along with printed images, some sweets, and other thoughtful details. It was the perfect finishing touch to a genuinely wonderful experience. If you're getting married at City Hall -- or anywhere in San Francisco -- Jennifer Michelson / A Girl and a Camera is exceptional. Thank you Jennifer! Laura and Junior.
