We are very happy with the service we received from Andy photography. We had a Vietnamese wedding…read morein San Jose and Andy Sandy was our wedding photographer & makeup artist. Sandy is his wife. They are a great team. We also enjoy our family children portrait session from him also. We had meet some photographer in the past but it was Andy's personalities , detail oriented, quality work that won him to be our wedding photographer. We felt ease and comfortable with him from the time we first met. He took his time with us and didn't push us to do anything that we didn't want or feel comfortable. Sandy's makeup was beautiful. She did 2 hair style and makeup for me. In the morning we had a traditional tea vietnamese wedding so my hair was up with Ao Dai . Before the wedding reception in Dynasty restaurant , she change my hair and makeup to another style. The makeup was natural .

Andy is one of the most professional, pleasant, and reasonably-priced photographers in the Bay Area. His pricing is transparent: we agreed upfront, no hidden cost, and most importantly, he did not use our last minute request to jack up the price like some others, which I was very thankful for (Yes, I received a quote 10X what we paid Andy). Andy called to discuss to make sure all details were covered. He not only arrived on time, but was the FIRST one to arrive at the ceremony! His pictures were amazing. We had taken the pictures in the synagogue before and none came out as sharp and clear as Andy's. He even driven down to the party (in another location) to take a few extra shots after the ceremony for us. I have lived in the city long enough and know the cost of living here. If you ever need a great photographer to work some magic without paying for a king's ransom or being ripped off, I would highly recommend Andy.

Muzar! Thanks again for the lovely photos of me and my precious babies!…read more I would highly recommend Muzar for your photography needs. He is very talented and I always enjoy seeing his work. Muzar photographed myself, my daughter and my son at the Arizona Cactus Garden in Palo Alto. He arrived early to scope out different areas to shoot. My kids were very comfortable with Muzar, he even played some music for them to dance along too. I am very happy with the results and look forward to working with Muzar again!

He kept reminding me to just pretend he isn't there and to just be comfortable with myself. I truly enjoyed having him capture the day for me, he was so kind and warm! I felt truly seen and welcomed to be "finally recognized". Thank you so so so much for dedicating your time to make some magic wonders! If you're looking for someone who makes a shoot fun, book with him. It felt like meeting up with an old friend who just wants you to be happy with the special moments he can capture for you generously and genuinely. Thanks Muzar!

Planning a wedding can be daunting. Researching and booking the right vendors can be very stressful…read moreas well. It's a blur as to how I came across Heart & Seeker Photography but when I did, I knew I had to reach out and inquire if they were available to photograph my wedding. From our initial interaction, I could tell that Johnny was really passionate about his craft. He's a real professional -- a fun one, too! We chatted and discussed our wedding details and Johnny painstakingly asked about everything that we wanted to immortalize via photos. Johnny listened patiently and attentively as I rambled on and on. It was no doubt, he was just the right photographer we were looking for and so, we decided to book. Throughout the wedding planning process, Johnny maintained constant and open communication with us--regularly checking in and making sure we were on the same page. We were excited to work with him and his second shooter, Nicole. My husband and I are both awkward in front of the camera and I was a bit worried about that. Come the day of the wedding, Johnny and his partner made it effortless and they made sure that we, including the wedding party and the guests, were all having fun. They helped us embrace our awkwardness and kept us smiling and laughing the whole time. We received preview photos shortly after our wedding and we were thrilled! We loved them all!!! Not long after, we received a link to our finished gallery and we were in awe! Their attention to detail is unmatched! They captured everything that was important for us to be photographed and the photos turned out so great! Thank you, Johnny, for the amazing photos you took of our wedding! They're a great way to relieve that moment and we will always treasure them.

But then I saw that Johnny still did photography (thanks IG) and I had to reach out to see if he had availability for our family pictures. And he did! We find ourselves reaching out to Johnny year after year. He is kind, patient, sweet, collaborative, calm, funny, and just overall a wonderful human being. But to top it off, he has killed it with every single one of our family photos. Last year I was mortified because my kids were being kids (I know, how dare they) and I was worried we wouldn't get any good pics. But Johnny would never let that happen. He took some stunning pictures that I adore to this day. He has an eye for these things and is incredibly talented. He took maternity pics for me too and I swear he worked some sort of magic. Johnny knows of some awesome locations, is adventurous, and down to try different areas. He is talented, artistic, and amazing at photography!! If you want great pictures, and to have a great time, and memories to last a lifetime, look no further. I cannot recommend Johnny enough!!

I'm in the wedding industry myself, and met Gary about 4 years ago at a wedding in Sonoma. He…read moreimmediately struck me as such a nice and personable/funny guy who was very easy to work with. After the wedding I added him on Facebook and WOW, I was blown away by the pictures he captured from that day. When it came to selecting a photographer for our wedding a few years later, Gary was at the top of our list. My wife and I grabbed coffee with him and immediately knew that his personality, easy going nature, and experience level were exactly what we were going for. We're both not a big fan of "posed" photos and can be a little bit weird and awkward in front of the camera sometimes, but man, we were laughing with Gary all day on our wedding day. He captured tons of photos of us being goofy and just our normal selves, along with candid photos and great action photos from our family and guests. Overall the whole entire process with Gary was amazing and he captured tons of amazing photos that we'll cherish for a lifetime. If you're looking for photographer with a great eye, but who is down to earth and personable enough to let you be yourself, then look no further!

I hired Gary for my corporate event last week and was SO pleased with both him and his team…read more I had met Gary while he was shooting my cousins wedding and I just loved his style and energy. Not to mention her photos turned out absolutely gorgeous! He proved to be absolutely awesome to work! His eagerness to help and try new things to freshen up our corporate event photos and portraits shined through. I would absolutely hire him again for either a corporate or personal event. So happy I found my photographer of choice!

I can't say enough wonderful things about Preston's work. We found him on yelp and from our first…read moreinterview with him and his partner, we knew they were right for our engagement and wedding photography. Our engagement photo shoot was in Richmond at the local marina. Ever professional, Preston scouted the location prior to our appointment and really turned out some wonderful shots. We did a change of clothes and were finished with our shots in all of 45 mins (which was perfect for our busy schedules and my ADD). He turned around our finished shots in 2 weeks and they were perfect. We used them for everything: Holiday cards, save the date, wedding invitation (video montage), wedding website, you name it, we did it. We hired Preston for the full 8 hours on our wedding day. He was able to shoot both bride and groom before the wedding and even some family shots prior. The ceremony photos he posted on the blog were splendid. He even met with me and the wedding planner the week prior to the ceremony to scout the site and hash out details. I could go on and on and on, but in sum, Preston is a consummate professional who is truly passionate about their work. he is never imposing and most of the time you hardly know he's there. He is a photographer who captures the big and small observational moments of tender exchanges and THAT is one of the things that makes his work so special. I can't wait to see the final work.

Getting married? Go see Preston right away, please! It has been such a pleasure to work with him,…read morefirst for our engagement photos and finally for our wedding. I spent hours reviewing photographer's websites and Preston's was one that both myself and my husband could agree on. We knew at our first meeting with him in person that his photos were beautiful, his work was high quality, and that he would be easy to work with. Preston has a great easy going and professional demeanor. He accommodated our far flung locations and drove all the way to Santa Cruz for our engagement session and then to Grass Valley for our wedding, both of which are pretty long trips for him. On the day of the wedding, Preston showed up early and worked hard the full 8 hours. Having never been married before I had not a clue how the whole process worked, but trust in Preston to know what to do. He got shots of us, the wedding party, and our family members prior to the ceremony. The man works fast! He also had time to get all the little details before the ceremony. Post-ceremony was a bit of a blur for me and most of the time I didn't even know he was there, but he was catching all of the main events for the evening. I know Preston had to deal with photography demands from our family and wedding party and handled them like a pro. He also tried to catch my misbehaving dogs on film which required a bit of patience. We've seen a few of the pictures so far and they are wonderful. We are eagerly awaiting the rest! So in short, if you want a talented, calm, and genuinely nice guy to document your wedding, and you you want someone who can capture the EMOTIONS of your big day (not just all your DIY projects and pretty jewels) you have to talk to Preston Davis.

We hired Pat for our wedding photography and were thrilled with her! Not only was she a very…read morecompetent wedding photographer, catching all the important moments, being professional, and unobtrusive, her photos are spectacular. She isn't the kind of photographer that gives you cookie cutter shots that look identical to anyone else's portfolio. She is certainly capable of that, but you would be wasting her talents. Her work has an originality and detail that comes from only an artist. Our photos are everything we could have wanted, from classics portraits to lively candid shots, that not only look beautiful, but contain the essence of the day. I look at them today and I can still feel the excitement, the love and joyousness that I felt then. I simply could not have been more pleased.

I needed new head shots and publicity photos: I'm an author. Pat was professional, easy and fun to work with, and she produced a body of pictures far beyond what I had come to expect from photographers I'd used previously. I got twelve excellent shots--I usually get three, tops--and about two dozen others that were usable. This is an astonishing rate of success in my experience, and I couldn't be more pleased. I have referred all my writer friends to Pat, and I hope she picks up a boatload of work. I can't imagine anyone coming away from working Pat without the highest accolades for both the experience and the results.

They arrived promptly, communicated clearly, and immediately put us at ease (important for two people that don't particularly love the spotlight). As an LGBTQ couple, we also really appreciated how respectful they were and how comfortable we felt throughout the entire process. Mike is very knowledgeable of City Hall, and knew exactly where to go for the perfect shots to highlight the building's beauty and how to ensure there weren't other people in our photos, even with City Hall being quite busy the day we were there. We were impressed to receive a selection of stunning photos within just 24 hours, and had access to the complete album well within the timeline he initially gave us. The final gallery is absolutely lovely, and we are so pleased with our choice of wedding photographer! I highly recommend him!

Right from…read morethe start they were incredibly responsive, gave useful feedback, provided great photo prompts, and worked efficiently. We booked them because we learned Mike and his team were some of the most experienced wedding photographers in the area, and that definitely came through in our own experience.

Thank you to the entire team at Dubnoff Photography!

Mike was OUTSTANDING. He photographed our wedding on Pebble Beach in Carmel, and he absolutely…read moreperfectly captured the look and feel of the day. He was non-intrusive but got every shot, and worked very well with our wedding coordinator, caterer, and rentals people to make sure it all went smoothly. Our sparklers at the end of the night were particularly illustrative of how good Mike is; in person, they were sort of a hilarious blooper, because they couldn't really stay lit very long or throw off much light. But in Mike's pictures, it looks like the fourth of July, and now, that's how we'll remember it thanks to Mike's work. I can't recommend him highly enough.

He brings just the right blend of professionalism, intelligence, perpetual calmness and common sense along with inspired artistry to the process. He is there for you from planning through the big day through reviewing and editing the final product, with extremely helpful advice to give you confidence you're in great hands. His second shooter, Nick, was also outstanding - together they were the dream team for our event.
