Like most people who don't better, I thought a family member could snap some quick pics at the…read morewedding, and we could use the photo booth for some group shots. After listening to some others, who didn't say poo-poo to my idea but suggested other things, I thought..."get a photographer, stupid!" You really don't want to put that on a family member who is coming to the wedding to have fun. I looked around and was floored by the prices and the photographs...I wanted something more in the moment along with some family and wedding party shots. Apostolos delivered and delivered a more than fair price!!! He came out for the wedding rehearsal and prior to that to gauge the sun and F-stops/contrast for the day of the wedding/reception. He made some excellent suggestions to block out the sun, which worked fabulously! He was also very unobtrusive in getting the pictures and blended right in with the ceremony and reception. He got some terrific shots and the families were able to get some updated family shots in the process. I am so very lucky to have found Apostolos plus he suggested a videographer, who we hired and he did a terrific job for us as well!!! Money well-spent. Thank-you for the outstanding work, Apostolos!!!!

Apostolos is an incredible photographer. I work in post production and I am a stickler for…read moretechnical accuracy when it comes to photography, so I poured over many different portfolios while looking for my wedding photographer. Once I saw Apostolos' work, I knew I had found a professional who knew his craft, and who could create some gorgeous shots. Apostolos is very accommodating and easy to work with, and he made the process easy. We live in LA and got married in Santa Barbara, and Apostolos drove out for the occasion. Since our wedding was small and more casual, we had not thought about too many photo concepts, but he was on his game and came up with a variety of shots at our hotel to the Santa Barbara courthouse to our wedding venue. He never missed a beat! Apostolos was quick to deliver the first set of shots and we were enjoying them the same weekend of the wedding. My family was in SB for the weekend and were thrilled to be able to see them while still enjoying their vacation in California. The pictures were technically accurate, well composed, and just plain beautiful. I couldn't be more pleased. I have additional needs for some head shots and product photography, and I already know who I am going to hire. If you want a photographer who delivers high quality photos while being professional and easy to work with, look no further: you've found the perfect guy for the job.

I found Nat and Ryan online 2 weeks prior to my wedding day. I had changed my mind about getting…read morewedding videography and I'm so glad I found them. I knew I wanted videographers who could work in a shorter time period than a whole day coverage (I got 4 hours to cover ceremony through the reception) and their video packages were a perfect match. Their email communication was always prompt and they worked seamlessly with my wedding photographer. They were stealthy and I could barely tell they were shooting video. Nat kindly sent me the highlight reel and included a teaser video for social media within the time frame she had promised and prior to her maternity leave!

Latrice and Tanya messaged me on facebook after seeing my post about searching for videography (last minute decision after we had to downsize the wedding due to COVID and I wanted to be able to share video of the day to everyone that was cut from the downsize). I cannot thank them enough for their kindness and constant communication! I did not meet them until the day of and they blended in with my crazy family. Our highlight video is incredible and everything I ever imagined - the initial draft needed minimal edits (its like they read my mind in how to build the video and arrange it) and I am beyond grateful to have hired them. Working with them was easy, fun and straightforward. Their pricing and packages are extremely reasonable and they really know how to capture the day. They did not skimp on getting footage of everything - because it is all important and they worked well with al my other vendors. I would highly recommend them and would hire them again - thank you ladies so much! https://youtu.be/1v2zoXAah9M

Little did we know that this decision would be one of the best decisions we made - and the Byrd sisters would be one of the best vendors that we hired for our wedding. Initially, we were just hoping to have some footage from the wedding, mostly of older family members. What we received was a stunning five minute video that captured the absolute essence of our magical day. Latrice and Tanya did such an incredible job weaving together all of the wonderful moments - from getting ready to the first look to family and friends dancing at the reception. In addition to being such talented videographers, they are also just lovely to work with and the sweetest people! Thank you Latrice and Tanya!

We hired the Delaflix team to shoot and edit my wedding video and I'm so glad we did. Edward was…read morevery professional in our initial meeting and walked us through the process and his vision for a wedding video. He mentioned being more of a "behind the scenes shooter" and "capturing moments rather than staging them" and that's exactly what he did! We were frantically preparing on the day of and he coordinated with our photographer to ensure that he was not taking any of our precious time but still recording the magic of our moment. His turnaround time was quick and we honestly feel he created the greatest highlight video we could have asked for! Delaflix helped us relive our special moment over and over again and I would highly recommend him to future clients!

I had Leona and her camera over for my husbands' family reunion! A first with a professional…read morephotographer. From the start, Leona communicated very well via email/phone prior to the event with the expectations, logistics/visions/ ect. Very positive energy and aura. She listened to "my vision" of what they day was going to be like....a little hectic and chaotic with SO many relatives in town for the event....but she took on the challenge and came with her game face & camera around her neck (with a smile & Smarties for the kids). She was very easy and relaxed which made the day that much easier!!! I didn't want the event to be overshadowed with a photographer "snapping photos in their face" or bothering those family members who were trying to visit.....we were going for casual and unobtrusive. Leona was not only friendly but very professional. She took casual photos as well as candids. She was very under the radar unless we asked her to snap certain must have moments/photos!! THe ironic thing is, I had just been to a wedding that my 2 yr old daughter was in the day before and THAT OTHER photographer actually "snapped" at her for stepping on the wedding dress.....AND had my little one was in tears and not wanting to take pictures because she was now afraid of him and quipped at her! He did not know how to pose her in pictures considering her small height...there were posts from the bridge blocking my daughter from being in most of the pics.!! REALLY??? THAT photographer obviously did not know how to work with young children NOT THE CASE with Leona!!!! The children at the reunion gravitated to Leona and her lens and she was able to capture their attention....make them silly and giglle and HAVE fun! Anyone who can do that to the 5yr and under crowd (with no tears just smiles)--gets 5 stars as well!!! Leona utilized the grounds, scenery and different background of nature to create the most beautiful pictures......of our BIG family. We could not be more happy about ALL the pictures taken of 4 generations of family. Everyone LOVES the photos!!!! She will be our photographer for a long time......an will recommend her to all our friends as well!! Anastasia Castro Valley, CA

Leona gets the photos she takes to her clients quickly and without issue. I can confidently recommend Leona's photography services both to those wanting great photos of themselves, their loved ones, or their families and to webmasters looking for photographers to take photos for websites they are developing.

I had a challenging request for her to take pictures of toddlers playing at a RIE studio without interrupting them. Toddlers are an extremely observant audience and of course, they like to know about the new person and the big camera, but within a few minutes, Margaret became, as the saying goes, "just like a fly on the wall," allowing the children to play and interact naturally. In addition to taking wonderful portraits of the children playing, interacting, climbing and eating snacks, she took genuine portraits of me interacting with the toddlers. Margaret is truly gifted at capturing honest in-action portraits on camera in a way that conveys the feelings and personalities of the individuals.

I can't even begin to explain how lucky we were to have Sheryl along with us on our wedding…read morejourney. My husband and I have never been the type of couple that took "cute" photos together. One of us is either making a face or glaring at the other. The first time we had taken professional photos together was right before we got engaged. It was the most awkward experience ever. We needed so much direction and were the type of people that ask, "What do we do with our hands?" Once we started the planning process, we knew we needed to find someone that could work with the awkwardness and find a way to bring out the couple that could take good photos. Sheryl was recommended to us by a co-worker. We chose a package that included both engagement and wedding photos. The advantage of doing both with the same photographer is that you're able to develop a relationship and really get to know each other. Sheryl is able to see how you are as a couple and really uses that insight to take the best possible photos of you. We did our engagement photos with Sheryl in San Francisco at the Palace of the Fine Arts and Sutro Baths. I to this day cannot believe that the couple in those photos are us. She made us feel so comfortable that we totally forgot what we were doing and why we were there. The wedding day experience with Sheryl was the best we could have asked for. Not only did she bring this incredible energy that helped calm our nerves, but she was literally the only reason I was able to successfully get into my wedding dress. She doubled as the most amazing photographer on the planet and my fairy godmother. We just got our photos back and they are better than I could have imagined. She was really able to capture the magic of the day. Working with Sheryl is so incredibly easy. She is full of life and her positive energy is infectious. She gives great direction and knows when to crack jokes at the most opportune time to get that candid laugh shot. If she can bring out the best in this awkward couple, she can do the same for you!
