My daughter mentioned that we are rarely in pictures together (because I typically do all of the…read morepicture taking). This made me sad so I decided to book a photoshoot for just the two of us. I count my lucky stars to have found Nathan Anglin, he is absolutely wonderful to work with. Booking is very relaxed and he offers up plenty of options to suit any schedule. Communication was on point leading up to our shoot date as Nathan would check in to see how we were doing and if we had any questions for him. This day was made so incredibly special for us. My daughter can be painfully shy, especially around new people, but you would never know it by looking at the images captured on that day. Nathan brought out the best in both of us and we had so much fun! Best decision ever.

We found Nate through Shoott.com and were really pleased with both the photography taking…read moreexperience and the resulting photos. He had a lot to handle - 2 parents, 2 grandparents, 3 and 6 year old boisterous girls and a feisty dog. He was professional, good-natured and did a great job at getting everyone's attention and setting up natural shots. Unlike many photographers, Nate excelled at taking candid shots. He exceeded the amount of time allotted to the appointment (which was very kind of him and he didn't have to do). The photos were lovely, even though the 6-year old was challenging with respect to posing. You're in great hands with Nate!

I waited and waited. I wasn't in any real hurry since I was ahead of the game. I understood they were busy. But when it came down to it, I NEVER got a response. I emailed him (6/13/15), as courtesy, to please get us the estimate so we could make our deposit. I have still never received a response. Thoroughly disappointed. (9/19/15) Finally got a response. There was miss communication. Everything is set in motion. I'm still very excited. We shall see how things play out.

She is grounded and natural and funny and puts you completely at ease in order to provide the photograph you'll love! She was recommended to me - I highly recommend her to you! Dale Smith

I set up a branding session for my business with Joy not really thinking much about it. I figured a…read morebranding session was just about photos and creating an image, little did I know the depths of the conversations we would have. Joy is not just her name; it is what she brings to the table when you meet with her. The passion she has behind the camera is just the end of an amazing expedition when you choose to do a branding session with Joy at Winding Road. I would recommend any business that feels they might need a little light in their tunnel give Joy at call and experience what my wife and I did for our business. Just be prepared, the journey is amazing!

I strongly recommend Hapa Films for your wedding/event or business filming needs!! I would give him 10 stars if it were possible!

Our wedding video came out better than I ever could have imagined, and is something we will truly treasure for the rest of our lives. Donovan was so easy to work with, made everyone comfortable, and really captured every moment of our day. At times I almost forgot he was there, he fit in so seamlessly at every stage of our day. He also worked great alongside our photographer, and really was great at directing a big group of people when they needed it! The quality, detail, and thought that was put into our video is so evident in the final product. Everyone we have shown the video to has been stunned. I am so glad I hired Hapa Films!

The one thing we would recommend would be listing out and confirming groupings and pairings with the photographers for family/bridal portraits, especially for bigger families. We felt that we missed out on some opportunities to capture specific groupings of family and bridal party which turned out to be a bit of a bummer. We would highly recommend Melanie and Andrew to anyone in the Grass Valley area.

We started off with a "trial run" of sorts, we hired Angie and Lee for our wedding but then also booked an engagement shoot. During that engagement shoot with Angie, she made us feel comfortable and confident as she was able to direct us through poses while also just talking to us as if we were already friends. She gave us back our gallery so quickly and it was so romantic and cinematic. I have NEVER felt prettier (or so I thought) Come our wedding we got to meet Lee, her husband and videographer, Lee was just the same! I truly enjoyed his humor throughout the day and it was so endearing to see Angie and Lee work together. They are truly and impeccable pair, as the seamlessly communicated and worked around and with each other to get their own shots. They then provided a sneak peak, SO QUICKLY, and the photos were STUNNING. I thought I felt pretty at our engagement shoot, it doesn't compare to the wedding photos!! They capture just the right angles and all those small moments. I am awaiting on my full gallery and video, however, I have full trust it will be spectacular!! I truly think a standout piece of our special day was the magic that our vendors brought. Angie and Lee were so fun to work with. They truly brought the vibes and enthusiasm that calmed my every nerve. I can't rave about them enough. Thank you both so much!
