If you want to re-live your big day over and over again years later, James is your guy! My wife and I had never done a professional photoshoot. Neither of us are particularly comfortable in front of the camera. After interviewing 5 different photographers, we knew from our first conversation that James was the one. He is incredibly friendly, easy going, and knowledgeable. We agreed to do an engagement session, 1 location for 90mins to see if we'd be comfortable working with James. It couldn't have gone better. Initially, we were a bit stiff, but James gave us tips on how to act naturally, suggested poses and hand positions that made us feel and look relaxed. The time flew by and we actually ended up going to a second location with a wardrobe change. Overall, it was about 2 hours. James did not mind at all. In fact, he probably could've gone longer if the sun hadn't set on us! Our photos were edited and received in less than 2 weeks! James was kind enough to print a large poster and sign that shipped to our house in just a few days. He price matched any package/prints from other photographers. Having gone through our engagement session seamlessly, we hired James to shoot our wedding as well. He and an assistant were on site for 10 hours, tending to our every need and keeping us on our timeline. After our planned family/wedding party photos, we hardly even noticed them working as we proceeded with wedding events. After the wedding, we received many compliments on how great James was and several guests asked for his contact information. Within a couple of days, we received a preview of about 20 photos highlighting our big day. We were thrilled! Every important moment was captured so elegantly! The full magazine of photos was available for download in about 1 month. James then worked with us to print a high quality photo book for our coffee table. You can't go wrong with James--his high quality work and work ethic speak for themselves. There is no substitute for how easy and stress free he made us feel, so that we could truly enjoy ourselves knowing that he would capture every single moment candidly. Do not hesitate to hire James, it will be the best decision you will ever make.

An unforgettable experience captured perfectly -- thank you, James!…read more I had the honor of graduating from both LACC and UCLA Extension, and I'm so grateful that James was there to capture every important moment. From our first communication, he was extremely professional, flexible, and kind, always making sure he understood what I wanted and adapting to each location, timeline, and change with ease. He photographed both ceremonies with incredible attention to detail -- from candid moments of me with my husband, family, and friends, to emotional highlights like walking across the stage, and even the quiet, heartfelt moments in between. His eye for storytelling brought every part of the day to life. James made everyone feel comfortable, and his warm presence truly added to the celebration. He treated both graduations with care and dedication, and I couldn't have asked for a better photographer to help preserve these milestones. If you're looking for someone reliable, talented, and genuinely passionate about their work -- James is the one. Thank you again for capturing these beautiful memories that my loved ones and I will treasure forever!

He was more than happy to work with us and gave us a lot of confidence that he was the right pick. Kevin was friendly and flexible throughout the entire process. My, now wife, and I didn't want a stressful photography schedule for our wedding as we wanted to actually enjoy our wedding. Kevin came in and gave us exactly what we wanted. Easy going, friendly, and a damn good photographer! When taking photos Kevin really captured us, and that's what we wanted. We were able to get a sneak peek at some of the pictures and we are thankful that we will have these beautiful pics to remind us of that special day. Thank you Kevin for capturing our special day and being a part of it!

When we initially began searching for vendors for our wedding, I came across Holding & Co Photography here on WeddingWire. As I continued my search, I kept comparing every other photographer's pictures to the images captured by Julia and Kevin. I knew that I would not be happy if we settled with anyone else, and I'm glad I listened to my gut! Julia and Kevin have an innate ability to capture beauty, light, and emotion with their cameras in such an artistic way that it's as if every picture could be printed in a magazine. I have gotten so many people telling me that our photos are the best wedding photos they've ever seen. Not only are Kevin and Julia true artists, but they are incredible people as well. With COVID and CA wildfires, not only was our original wedding plan changed, but our second, third, and fourth plans were as well. The Holdings were there for us through every obstacle that came in our way with supportive words and promises that they would make it work no matter where we got married. Choosing Holding & Co Photography was the #1 best decision that we made regarding our wedding. The images that Julia and Kevin captured on our wedding day and our subsequent post-wedding adventure shoot will be with us for our lifetimes and will always remind of us the incredible people who were there to make our day memorable. You will not be disappointed in hiring them to document your day.
