Karen is truly something special. We've been fortunate to work with a number of talented and…read morewonderful photographers over the years, but none have been so successful in disarming our daughters and giving them the confidence to be themselves in front of the camera.

We booked Arjay for our March 2025 wedding and highly recommend him!…read more My wife actually came across Arjay's work before we even had a wedding date set--and he was the very first photographer she bookmarked. His fine art photography style is elegant, timeless, and exactly what we envisioned. As soon as our date was confirmed, she reached out right away. After our initial consultation, we instantly knew he was the right choice for us. His package offerings are very reasonable--ours included an engagement session, a second shooter, and flexible options for coverage. He's also incredibly helpful, communicative, and full of thoughtful advice when it comes to planning your day. During our engagement session, he made us feel totally at ease in front of the camera (which is no small feat!) and turned the shoot into a genuinely fun experience. When we received our gallery, we were blown away by both the quality and the sheer number of beautiful photos. It confirmed that we made the perfect choice in hiring him. On our wedding day, Arjay helped keep everything running smoothly. He followed our timeline, captured all the moments we requested (and so many more), and worked seamlessly with our videographer. He truly went above and beyond, and the moments he captured are ones we'll treasure for a lifetime. On top of his incredible talent, Arjay is just a wonderful, easygoing person who's a joy to be around. We're so grateful for his artistry and professionalism--thank you again, Arjay!
