We can't thank Emil from Gasparian Photography enough for capturing our love so beautifully. Thank you, Emil (@gasparianfoto), for your incredible work! We are so grateful for your professionalism, attention to detail, and the level of care you put into every shot. Your experience truly shows. One thing we really appreciated was how direct and clear you were with instructions. You guided us on exactly how to pose, where to place our hands, and how to position ourselves so the photos looked natural and elegant. Because of that, we felt confident the entire time and never felt awkward in front of the camera. Another amazing feature was the live cam viewing option. Being able to instantly see the photos you were taking gave both us and our guests so much excitement and reassurance. Every picture looked incredible, and it really showed us that we were working with a true professional. We absolutely love that we could immediately view the moments you captured. If you're looking for a wedding photographer, look no further. Emil's attention to detail, communication skills, and ability to make couples feel comfortable are truly superb. Highly recommend! read more

We took 5-10 minutes to go over the vision and inspo photos, and Emil was able to put my vision into the photos. He was very fast in shooting and showed us every photo and asked us for feedback. He's a great listener and was able to shoot what we wanted and not what he thought was "good". The post edit only took 2 days as well. It was a pleasant experience working with him and we will recommend him to our other friends in the future. read more

Emile - owner and founder of Gasparian Photography - is absolute FIRST-CLASS.

Great pictures. Very experienced photographer. Thank you so much for accommodating us on such short notice. Very easy to work with. read more

This photographer has excellent expensive equipment, nice studio. But his skills in photography are poor, low, photos are horrible, underexposed, oversaturated. I think because of that he says "I don't give any guarantee" when he takes your money. He says "I'm just shooting, it's not my problem after, if your task you came to me with gets solved or not." My task was extremely simple, headshot and full body with certain requirements, almost passport photos. This photographer with his expensive stuff couldn't manage even with almost passport photos. They are were not accepted in my application - out of requirements. He didn't solve the simplest task, my goal. His answer is "I've done shots, it's not my problem were they accepted or not". I have to notice, before shooting day I provided him requirements and my goal - photos for online application. If you have an important event, be careful, you will pay and there is no any guarantee or responsibility that you'll get result that you expect. For free - you can try, be or not to be. read more

Was able to book a last minute 30-min package for our outdoor family portrait. He is punctual, experienced, efficent, and good with both kids and elderly. The whole process went smooth and we were able to get a lot of different shots for our Fall pictures to be hung on our wall. Download of pics was a breeze. Price is very reasonable. Will hire again. read more

My 12-year-old daughter's audition photos came out beautifully! We also received the photos very quickly, only 2 days after the shoot.

Gasparian is a great photographer. I like the fact that when he takes pictures they are immediately avaliable online and can be viewed immediately after its taken. He also did a mini photo shoot for me at the wedding I participated in as a brides maid. I was not even the bride but he took out his time to take those pictures and added special effects. He has a great personality and renders great service. I 100% recommend him. read more

I needed corporate professional headshots done for an upcoming conference with a super quick turnaround. Thankfully, Emil at Gasparian Photography was there for me! He was super responsive and helpful when I reached out for a quote, and had very reasonable prices compared to some of the other spots I was considering. He got me in to the studio right away and sent me my pictures by the following morning. Emil was very friendly, professional and patient. I felt at ease during the shoot and Emil asked me questions and gave suggestions along the way to make sure I was getting exactly what I needed. The pictures turned out great, and now I'm just having a hard time picking my favorite one for the conference. Would definitely recommend! Thank you, Emil! read more

Couldn't be happier with the whole transaction. Emil had many good suggestions that helped me plan the perfect wedding proposal for us. He suggested several good places and once one was chosen, he was there, ahead of time, ready to go. Despite being a little warm, he worked through the sweat and often blinding sunlight to capture many moments of this very profound day for us. With so many things to worry about on that day, Emil really came through and did great work. Communication was fast and delivery of the final product was also very quick after shooting. I will work with him again when I need a photographer in the area. read more

We were very disappointed in our overall experience with Gasparian photography. We used Emil to shoot our engagement photos and that experience was fine but the photos turned out great so we booked him for our wedding in June, so about 9 months in advance. Then roughly 3 months before our wedding Emil told us his wife would be our photographer instead! We were both surprised and when we looked back at the contract we signed with him it said he could switch photographers at any time. His wife was very personable to everyone at our wedding but her photos were not professional and we were devastated. We had to ask for many edits and after we shared our disappointment we asked for a partial refund but there has been no refund and Emil has been aggressive with his responses to try and excuse his unprofessional behavior. This last minute switch made us feel like our small backyard wedding wasn't worth his time. Definitely be careful with some of the unprofessional ways Emil is running his business. We hope no one else has an experience like ours! read more

He listens to your ideas and does a great job helping you pose and feel your best while doing so. The elegance with which he captures your special day is unique; we had a wonderful experience with him on our wedding day. If you are looking for a photographer, look no further! You'll have beautiful memories captured forever. read more

After graduation, I needed business portraits and headshots. Based on excellent reviews, I decided to try Gasparian Photography, and I was not disappointed. Emil is a master at his craft and made the experience very smooth. He guided me through various poses with ease, offering spectacular tips to ensure my portraits looked amazing. He even showed me the photos during the shoot to make sure I was satisfied. I received my expertly edited photos very quickly. His studio in Pasadena was beautifully organized and pleasantly situated, with dedicated parking available within the complex. Emil was flexible with timing and scheduling, making the photoshoot efficient and worth every dollar. Overall, Emil was a joy to work with. I am certain I will work with him again and highly recommend his services. read more
