If you are looking for a professional photographer look no further! I always thought I had to find…read moresomeone in the area to provide quality pictures for my session and was so glad I took advantage of Pardomas while they were in DC. I really had no idea what I wanted to do for my posing/shots and Robbie completely guided me through it. I was nervous I wasn't going to be prepared enough or that I would look awkward because I have never had professional pictures taken and I felt sooo comfortable and at ease! It went by WAY too fast and he sent me the proofs to pick to edit the very next day. So pleased and can't wait to shoot again! Calli

I met Robbie through a mutual friend as I was looking to do a very specific type of shoot (I'm a…read moreprofessional model). He met with me prior to the shoot, had a notebook and pen ready and we actually had a great conversation about what I was trying to express, how he would go about expressing that in his photographs, and even helped draw a few sketches of what the shoot would hopefully look like. We agreed on a mutual idea and set a date to shoot. This was so above and beyond for any photographer I've worked with; most just show up and do their thing without asking the model why they want to do the shoot. He made me feel valued, respected, and heard; that is hard to come by in my line of work. That was almost a year ago (maybe more) and although I have thousands of photos in my portfolio, I still count that shoot in my top 5. It said exactly what I needed it to say and the end result truly took my breath away. I would absolutely work with him again. I am confident that anyone he works alongside would have to meet his standards in order to do so, so anyone on Robbie's team is going to be a guaranteed professional. If you want art that speaks to you, hire Pardomas.

No one compares to Steve. We looked at the video portfolios of at least a dozen other "videographers" and it was a no-brainer. His videos are without a doubt the very best in the market. I wouldn't trust anyone else with documenting my important experiences. We loved Steve so much that when I hosted my annual family reunion, we immediately called Steve - he was the first vendor we hired. And for the first time in the 40 year history of my family reunions, we have a beautifully documented history of our family with interview of my elders, and videos from the entire event weekend to share and rewatch for years to come. Steve has always gone above and beyond, always putting his creative talents to work in producing such a unique and memorable product. I am producing videos for my business and Steve is the only person I'll work with and trust with my videos. Steve is a true artist and expresses his talent through the medium of video. Whether it is a wedding, an important event, or a business need. Steve delivers the highest quality product, on-time, every time. He has such integrity in his work and his client service business practice that I can not say enough great things about him. Just hire him and you'll see for yourself! He is worth every penny and more! Aloha, Mayumi

Personality: You brides-to-be know how it is: The vendor has a great product, but their personality could be better. With Steve, you get the best of both worlds! Steve was a really great person to work with, and easily, the best vendor at our wedding. He was timely with his e-mails, professional, and came prepared for whatever the day may bring him. (He even brought his own hat for the "after the church" shoot on the beach. Yes, it was a warm day.) Skills: We are not models by any means, so he was creative with our poses and gave really good direction, something even some photographers have a hard time doing! We were apprensive, but he assured us our moves looked great. At cocktail hour, while other vendors were taking a break, he was putting together the same-day footage (which was rare at the time) to show at the reception, and WO-OW people were floored. He even stayed later than some of the guests to capture the whole event. Product: We got our video in about 2 weeks and still love it! He set music segments to our taste and liking. The whole thing was so beautifully done. He got better shots of the details than our photographer! Thanks Steve!

Daniel and Indigo West Photography did all that and more. Before our first call, Daniel had already looked at our venue and was happy to share ideas to showcase the architecture and history of the space. During the process, he was responsive and provided helpful guides for creating our timeline. On our wedding day, Daniel was right on time and quickly became friends with our party and guests. It is truly incredible how he was able to balance getting the shot while giving us space to enjoy the quieter moments of our day. My partner and I did a first look with private vows and the pictures are the only reason I know Daniel was there. That's how great he is and letting you be in the moment! Daniel also gave us a new appreciation for downtown San Diego and he picked the perfect spots to match our party. My partner and I were so happy that he loved our venue as much as we did and was excited to show it off. One thing we truly appreciated about Daniel was his ability to meet people where they are in the moment. He lets people authentically express themselves and their emotions without judgment. His care and attention to detail create stunning photos which radiate joy and feel authentic. My partner and I are in awe of our wedding pictures and cannot stop looking at them. Our friends and family have been raving about Daniel's professionalism and kindness throughout the event. Working with him you can feel his empathy for the people he meets and the stories they share. We are so incredibly happy that Daniel was a part of our day. If you are looking for a wedding photographer who is passionate about what they do and who truly sees people, I cannot recommend Daniel and Indigo West Photography enough.

We also received a very well made wedding album and a few large prints for our home. He was very professional and accommodating. Many of our photos, through all the different sessions turned out truly epic. He really listened to what style photos my wife and I wanted from our sessions. We sent him numerous inspirational photos as examples of the shots we wanted to recreate and he had all of those photos readily available to reference them and recreate the shots we wanted. For the wedding and the post-wedding shoots, we had drone video that really made a big impact on our final wedding video. The video editing took some time, but he was more than accommodating and made all the changes and tweaks that we wanted to make our video truly amazing and memorable. Something I've continued to look at on a regular basis since the wedding and it never gets old! His turn around on the photos was truly fast, faster than the norm in my opinion, and the quality of edits was really amazing. Thank you Arash for capturing one of the most important day of our lives! Thank you for being professional and punctual and communicating so well throughout the entire process; you truly made it easy and took stress off of what can be one of the most stressful aspects of wedding planning!

He had multiple multiple cameras to catch so many different angles and different vantage points of the celebration. I was very impressed when I saw the final video that he created. I definitely recommend connecting with Charlie to see if he is a good fit for your Once in a Lifetime celebration.

We had our wedding in August of 2025, and the videography Charlie and his team provided was way…read morebeyond my expectations. We were a last-minute booking for him and his team. Charlie was able to find a person to cover our wedding just a couple days before the wedding date. He has excellent examples of different styles of videography they could provide and what that pricing would look like. Charlie's website is perfectly user-friendly and was precise in their package descriptions and pricing. We personally did not want cinematic style videography that would require a lot of editing on their end. We wanted raw footage that we could keep for generations to show to our future children and grandchildren. The videographer did a phenomenal job at recording the ceremony and some of the reception in an authentic way that encapsulated the feeling of one of the greatest days of our lives. The videographer that covered our wedding, Stephen Daniels, had an exceptional understanding of Charlie's expectations on customer service. Charlie was constantly responsive before the big day and clear about when we should expect the files after the wedding. When he offered additional services in the emails, he presented it in a way that demonstrated his genuine care for weddings and events and not just an "upsell." I could see Charlie's customer service extend to Stephen. Stephen and Charlie knew we went with the most affordable package. Even so, Stephen set up a higher quality microphone and brought two cameras for backup. Charlie's website explains other services he could provide such as DJ-ing. Luckily, my husband is a DJ, but we did have quite a few live singers at our reception. Although we could not afford the microphone package for sound on the live singers, Stephen took the time out of recording to help one of the live singers with their sound quality on their devices. Our wedding was genuinely a DIY wedding ran by the power of Hashem and our community. When Stephen walked into the ceremony space, the most prominent visual part of our wedding, the Chuppah, a canopy in which many Jewish ceremonies take place was not set up. Stephen took time to help our friends and staff with the chuppah. Charlie and Stephen were not required to go beyond expectations, but they did that and then some. Although Charlie markets his work as "cheap videography," he certainly does not cheap out on the quality of their customer service and work. We were close to deciding on cutting out videography from our budget, but we are so pleased we chose to prioritize it as an essential part of our wedding day. https://youtu.be/FiME9qY3UMk?si=NK6riLqz9mXp9z3o
