We had a multi-generation photograph with lots of people and moving parts and it went super smoothly and everyone came out feeling happy. She was super professional and kind and fun to work with and has a great eye for shots and lighting, and provides just the right level of coaching to get good pictures. We will happily work with her again. Thank you!

However, Christina sees through your nerves and gives you all the pointers you need to make your photos look effortlessly gorgeous. She is so hilarious and a blast to work with. She knows how to loosen you up and make you feel comfortable, sexy, and glamorous. We were a COVID couple and throughout the entire planning process, Christina was helpful, patient and understanding. When it came to our wedding day, we were fighting COVID, smoke in the air and loss of time for shooting due to the bride being late - shocker! Thankfully Christina did not skip a beat, and went into hyper speed. She is assertive, and makes quick but smart decisions, which is exactly what you need when you're losing light and trying to wrangle 15+ tipsy people. When we got our photos back, they absolutely took our breath away and we couldn't wait to share them with all our family and friends. She has an incredible eye, years of talent, and it all shows in the beautiful images she produces. If you are thinking of hiring Christina, stop thinking - and do it. It will be the the best decision you'll make while wedding planning.

Lorenz is *fantastic* - a wonderful photographer with a great eye and composition, but also a warm,…read morelovely human being who makes you really comfortable during the photo shoot. Lorenz was the photographer at a conference where I spoke as a panelist recently. As a speaker, I forgot he was even down in front of me taking photos - he is not intrusive, so I didn't lose my train of thought while speaking - and he captured some great shots. The lighting and composition were truly beautiful. Then, by coincidence the following week, Lorenz was the photographer hired by my employer to take head shots of our team. Lorenz took practice shots to find just the right spot, and he took photos of each of us in a few different spots - so there were several different "looks" for each person - all in the span of about only 10-15 minutes. He captured beautiful morning light and some of our employees look like they're in a J. Crew or other professional ad campaign - really! He is very easy-going during the process and makes you smile, laugh, change stance, etc. so you get a really diverse set of shots (relaxed, posed, big laugh, smile, grin, serious) without feeling super-awkward. I really don't like getting my photo taken, and I don't ever like a lot of the shots I am in, but Lorenz captured some really nice shots and I am very happy with my head shots - everyone in our office is very happy with his work!

Lorenz was AMAZING to work with! I am an Author/Illustrator and needed new headshots to be done,…read moreand quickly too! Not only was he able to squeeze me in on very short notice. Before the shoot, he gave me tips on what to wear and help me decide on the vibe I would like to shoot for. I generally don't like taking photos of myself. He made my awkward self feel comfortable during the photo shoot and did a great job capturing me. He has a great eye for composition and lighting and made sure we have tried different angles, expressions, and all the background options before wrapping it up. Lorenz was also patient and incredibly accommodating to my schedule. The final photos were delivered quickly as promised and they look beautiful! He made me look so natural and pretty! I cannot be more grateful! I'm very happy with my headshots and I highly recommend Lorenz Angelo!

Meera Fox photographed my wedding this year and I was so lucky to have chosen her to do the job…read more My ceremony happened at sunrise and Meera was there to get every magical second of it. Then she stayed with me all day and all night until the last guest left the reception. If you are going to have a photographer by your side on the most important day of your life every minute of that day, it needs to be someone whose presence adds to the occasion and empowers you, without changing the vibe of the event. Meera was perfect in this way. It felt like she had my back no matter what we were doing. She was simply there, doing her job the whole time, but she was making everything feel special and making me feel beautiful and calm. The photos she took at my reception were epic! I had the quirky idea to do an old fashioned formal portraiture look where everyone was serious in the photos, just like they used to do in the olden days when people had to hold still for a long time to have their portraits taken, so no one smiled. Trying not to smile of course made everyone feel very silly, so Meera got serious and then funny ones of each group. I loved them all. Then Meera also roamed around the party all evening taking her famous candid shots of all the guests partying and having fun. These are moments I will always treasure and she documented everything so thoroughly. I can't wait now to have a baby because I want Meera Fox Photography to take baby portraits for me! Meera Fox has done a modeling shoot with my husband and he looks so amazing in the photos. I love her retro aesthetic and her technical rigor. As a professional photographer myself I am extremely choosy about who I hire to do photographs for me and of me. Meera Fox Photography is the best of them all.

Meera Fox is my favorite photographer. I hired her to do photographs at my daughter's Bat Mitzvah…read moreand she was wonderful. The pictures were everything we had hoped for and more. Meera Fox has also done modeling shoots for both my girls together and separately, and is helping promote them to the local modeling agencies. Because she is always involved with fashion related events, Meera Fox has involved my children in modeling opportunities they would not have had access to otherwise. My eldest has walked in a few runway shows and has amassed an impressive portfolio working with Meera Fox. My girlfriends are all jealous of the incredible photos I have of my girls as a result of the modeling shoots Meera has done with them. Modeling shoots with Meera have greatly increased my daughters' self confidence and sense of personal power. Meera is also a great role model for young women and she takes her work very seriously. I have hired Meera to cover special event parties and have had her shoot interiors of our home. This year she is going to shoot our family portrait for our holiday card. Meera Fox Photography never disappoints and Meera always goes above and beyond my greatest expectations.

After having my third photo shoot with Nan, I'm more impressed than ever with her work. She again…read morecaptured my spirit, and makes me look good yet real. The photos make me smile. As a professional, I believe it's important to have a current head shot. I've invested plenty on all kinds of courses, consultants and other business expenses. If I'm the product, shouldn't I show up as my best? It costs enough to be in business, and I don't think a professional photo is the place to be cheap. What Nan produces is a world away from the quick-picts we can all get with our phones, etc. I've finally scheduled a family shoot with Nan. I love how everyone in her group photos look so real and beautiful, and aren't just "smiling for the camera." Again, she captures the individuality of her subjects. I'm sure I'll be annoyed I waited so long to get the family portra

My husband and I were very lucky to have Stephen photograph our wedding at the UC Berkeley Botanical Garden. We interviewed several photographers and decided to hire Stephen because we felt most at ease talking to him. Some of the best advice we received while planning our wedding was "hire vendors you genuinely like." We genuinely liked having Stephen present on our special day; he was attentive, friendly, and somehow relaxed and present while capturing the seemingly endless flow of beautiful moments. We LOVE Stephen's emphasis on candid shots; he caught countless incredible moments on film where you can easily see the immensity, joy, and love of the day. Our posed photos also turned out really well, which I attribute to Stephen's efficiency (posing for too long = stiff photos!) and excitement for catching shots throughout the gardens (movement and new locations make for more fresh expressions!). Stephen's prices were very reasonable and he was always quick to respond to our emails and calls. He sent us a preview of our photos shortly after the wedding and we received the full set within a month of the wedding. Several loved ones have commented on how great the photos turned out and how impressed they were at how Stephen got seemingly everywhere yet didn't distract from the festivities in any way.

They are very easy to work with, even given crazy constraints, space limitations, timing issues, etc. They handle the details with style. They took some of the best photos I've seen. The output was superb. They provided action shots and portraits, just as I wanted. I didn't expect a whole lot from the action shots, but they are among my favorites! Really, these two are amazing. The worst thing I can say about Barbara and Wayne is that they've spoiled me for other photographers. They are now the standard against which I rate other photographers.
