I wanted to have our family portrait in colorful Fall foliage. He was willing to meet in person to discuss details and he spent time to look for a great location for us. During the shoot, Brian made us feel completely at ease, guiding us with direction while still capturing natural, candid moments. The final photos definitely met our expectations--each shot was beautifully composed and edited. Highly recommend Brian to anyone looking for a talented, reliable, and creative photographer. Five stars without a doubt!

Keith was easy to coordinate with ahead of time and always extremely responsive, which made the planning process smooth. Our photographer Robin was excellent. He helped us schedule the day to make the most of our time while still being mindful of the flow. We had a few special requests, like a photoshoot with our dog Bowie on the Embarcadero, and he made it all happen seamlessly. He also planned ahead to capture us at sunset overlooking the Bay Bridge, which turned into one of our favorite shots. We originally chose Robin for his incredible candid photography (since we're not naturals at posing), and we are so glad we did! Even our guests commented on how many wonderful candids he captured. At the same time, he guided us through posed photos when needed and brought a creative vision that went far beyond the basics we had in mind. It's also clear that Robin truly loves what he does - his enthusiasm made the experience even more enjoyable. On top of everything, he delivered our photos back to us in just one week, which is unheard of and so greatly appreciated. It was a lot of fun working with Robin - he was easygoing, professional, and stuck with us through a long day with such positive energy. We would absolutely recommend him and Lynds Photo & Video to anyone looking for wedding photography.

Rob and a second shooter, Catie, shot my wedding just about a week ago, and I already have gotten about 40 teaser shots...I have friends who have waited over 2 months to get that much from their wedding photogs! And what have seen so far have just blown me away, I can't believe I was lucky enough to have him as our photographer...if you are having any event ANYWHERE in his neighborhood, you would do yourself a disservice if you have anyone else do your photography. Also, what was extra wonderful was his manner...he doesn't just zip in and take awesome photos, he really went the extra mile in every respect...came out to the City to meet with me before the wedding, before we even hired him, then came early and stayed late taking wedding photos. While he was at the wedding, he made all the guests feel comfortable, was never obtrusive or caused any problems, just seemed like a friendly guy who was hanging out with us and then BAM magical photos happened! He was amazing, I recommend him 100%

They totally made us feel at ease. We brought our dog Cocoa to our engagement session, and May was so great with her. She totally made Cocoa feel at ease, and we got some great shots. For the wedding, we were on a pretty tight schedule, and went through numerous schedule changes, but Rob just rolled with it and made it happen for us. He's also very non-instrusive...at some points I didn't even notice him and his team shooting pictures. Rob is a great great guy to work with. He's open and honest, and stays true to his beliefs/visions. A true artist, and a great photographer. I can't wait to see the wedding photos, and I definitely recommend everyone to check him out. Maybe he'll be the perfect match for you too!

Definitely tell 5 stars for Adam Pardee! Book him for your wedding pictures!…read more We hired Adam for our SF City Hall wedding ceremony and are so thankful we did. Adam is intimately familiar with the best scenes within City Hall. He is infinitely patient and very kind. Our final pictures are gorgeous. We will cherish them forever. Thank you Adam! You hold a special place in our hearts.

We worked with Adam for our City Hall photos and we couldn't have been happier!…read more Adam was super easy to work with and scheduling with him was an absolutely breeze. He was really prompt and communicative, which I so appreciated. Admittedly, my now-husband and I are super awkward in front of the camera, but Adam put as at ease and did a great job of directing us and gave us a good mix of candid and posed photos. I felt bad because he was running around City Hall so much to get these really wide-angled shots. He was super aware of what was happening around us and it was amazing because we ended up getting these great photos where it looks like nobody else was in the entire building. We absolutely LOVE our pictures. The turn-around time for our edited pictures was also really fast. I think it was under a week? A bonus is that we snuck our dog into City Hall and Adam was super cool with us adding a model in. :)

My new bride and I selected Kevin to capture both our engagement and wedding as we had seen some of…read morehis work on his website and through some of his "Image of the Month" newsletters after signing up for them. The engagement session was conducted on the coast at a nearby beach. Kevin's attention to detail and instinct in having us perform some fun poses proved to be really memorable. We had so much fun and he captured our love of one another and family spot on. It was the perfect preamble to what was about to come at the wedding and solidified our decision for engaging with Kevin for the wedding. The wedding was a beautiful day. The months of hard work and romance of our special day was captured from every perspective. Not ever working with a photographer, we were anxious but excited to work with Kevin, but unsure of what to ask, what to expect, what to pay, etc... Kevin was great from start to finish. His attention to detail and his listening skills are amazing. He was able to capture our day, our happiness and the laughter of all our family and friends from so many vantage points. We remember thinking back, oh yeah, we did ask for that and he remembered and worked the request from beginning to end with expert attention. Wedding photos to me always seem like a chore when watching a new bride and groom going through the experience. Kevin erased those preconceived notions and surprised us with his fun way around grabbing us at the moment and setting the scene for what later turned out to be the "perfect" shot. He did this over and over, but in such a way that the whole experience was fun and didn't seem like work or he was taking us away from our day and family. Kevin enhanced our day's fun by pulling everyone into the experience and making it romantic and fun at the same time. His technical knowledge of photography clearly is exhausting as he made so many difficult lighting shots look easy, and once we saw the final product, safe to say we are amazed and couldn't possibly be happier with the outcome. We've heard horror stories about newlyweds and not having their day captured the way they wanted or the photographer missed certain aspects of the day. Kevin not only captured everything we wanted, he went above and beyond and captured so much more. The still shots on DVD are wonderful, but when we finally went through the experience of selecting which photo's should be part of the album and received the finished product- we were blown away. That accompanied by a full set of DVDs (including a video which we didn't even know about) have memorialized our special day forever. Thank you Kevin for your attention to detail, the fun experience, the laughter and the memories which will go on for a lifetime. You're truly an artisan and we thank you so much for all your work and professionalism.

My business mentor urged me to get a new professional photo to use on my website and other places…read morewhere I wanted my work to get noticed. I had been using an old photo (with the advantage that I looked younger, but not really as I look today) and also a drawn self-portrait that I thought did the job. But my mentor said, "People really want to see you on your website. They want that personal connection." So I went to Yelp, and winnowed the options down to 6 or 7 photographers in my area who did portrait photography. I researched the sites of all of them, and ended up feeling like the Goldilocks story: this one was too expensive, that one did professional head shots that looked more formal than what I wanted for myself, or too polished. (I didn't want to look glossy, just authentically attractive.) When I got to BK Photographie, I was met by landscape photos - but they were beautiful! Really lovely, magnetic, sensitive. I didn't see portraits of people there, but I intuitively trusted that anyone who could do such beautiful landscape photos could do headshots of me that would make me happy to share publicly. When I saw that he would actually come to my home (the other places had external studios), and charged a flat fee I could afford, I contacted him right away. The shoot went really well. Brian is a friendly guy with extensive photo knowledge. He came with all his equipment, though he didn't turn out to need it all. He suggested indoor poses (in a chair, standing by my baby grand piano) and outdoor poses (by a tree for its purple flower, by a tree for its stippled bark). He took dozens and dozens of photos, to the point where I stopped being self-conscious. At the end, he told me he would take a bit of time to choose and edit the photos, and then send them to me as jpg files. That was fine with me. When they finally arrived in my inbox, I was really happy with what I saw. He had chosen just a handful (two handsful, actually), out of the many click-click-clicks going on at the shoot. This pleased me too. He had chosen well. I have now uploaded several jpgs onto my website to replace the drawn self-portrait - and I can see the difference. I look vivid, friendly, present - and around my age. No matter. The beauty is there, and Brian found it and documented it for me to use and share. I highly recommend BK Watson Photographie!
