The…read moreweek leading up to the event he helped brainstorm locations for the best photos and opine on strategy. Walking up to our chosen proposal spot, I was initially worried because someone was sitting near where I was going to propose and would be in the shot. Turns out, it was Deeba making sure nobody else got in the area for the perfect proposal. He was so clandestine my fiancee had no idea anything was about to happen until I was on one knee. She was so surprised she never took off her glasses during the actual proposal and he noticed and right after we were done kissing had us quickly re-enact the moment without glasses or her purse. The shot speaks for itself. Would highly, highly recommend for anything important you want to capture in the most beautiful way possible.

We booked Deeba for both our engagement photos and wedding photos. He was amazing from the start. I…read morehighly recommend doing engagement photos first because it helped us get to know him better. And the photos are amazing! I have gotten so many compliments on our wedding photos and I love looking at them. It was important to my husband and I to not see each other before the wedding. We met with a few photographers and they told us our timeline and style of photos that we wanted would not work. Deeba listened to us, learned all the family dynamics, and not only accommodated what we wanted (more formal portraits and less cheesy kisses on the forehead), but he fit everything with enough time to spare that we could go to our cocktail hour! At the reception I literally did not know he was there unless guests were dragging me to get a photo taken (Sorry Deeba!). He blended in, and made everyone feel comfortable. If you want a true photo documentary of your big day, chose Deeba. You won't regret it.

My fiancé and I decided to get married last Friday during quarantine. My sister hired Robin to do…read moresome "distance photography" to commemorate the day. Let me say: Robin is the best! He is so friendly and goes out of his way for the client. He called me the night before to understand my vision and talk me through different location options. Safety was of utmost concern for Robin and we discuss in detail the safety measures we would take. Robin was flexible with time and location. He listened to our wants and needs and offered his own suggestions as well. Ultimately, Robin created BEAUTIFUL images of my husband and I. I'm so excited to use these photos when we finally have a wedding. We have already ordered many copies for family and friends and are excited to have these as keepsakes. I highly recommend Robin for any of your photography needs. Thanks so much, Robin, for making our special day even more special!!!

My son just had his graduation portraits taken and he had a great experience. He told me that the…read morephotographer, Ara, was very nice. She offered him some water to drink after she noticed that he had ridden his bike to the establishment. They tried to fix his hair before taking the pictures. Good thing there's photoshop, lol. Anyway, after the portraits were taken, things happened quickly. We (son and I) received an email telling us what to expect next along with a price guide and so forth. It was very organized and informative. As we went through the process of viewing and choosing our favorite photos, Ara was patient and helpful. She answered and/or clarified any questions/concerns that I might've had in a timely manner. Ara did a great job retouching the portraits. I appreciate how fast it all got done. It took less than a week from start to finish (for digital portraits/files). I also appreciate the discount incentives. Every little bit (of money saved) counts. I definitely recommend this business. Thanks again, Ara!!!

Wow. Where to start with Emily?…read more I'v'e shot with her twice. Each time I shot with her, she has great ideas of what to do with the location we're in, and she is gifted in understanding composition, lighting, and editing. It's so much fun running around the locations we go to and discovering new spots to pose at (we have shot at something of a combination of a school and a church, and a carousel). I would say her style is ethereal, soft, and almost other-worldly. Her photos look as though they have been sprinkled in fairy dust, and everyone is instantly beautified, but still look like themselves! Not only is she a great photographer, she's a wonderful wardrobe stylist as well. For instance, at our carousel shoot, she brought a bag of clothing, and we chose a mad hatter dress and she stapled giant, poofy magenta tulle to it to make the skirt look fuller and puffier. I always get compliments when people see photos of me taken by her. I really recommend Emily if you'r'e looking for a photographer!

We could not have asked for a better photographer and videographer team than Passion Studio…read more Raymond, the head photographer, was so easy to work with from the very beginning and really took the time to remember our names, including the names of our wedding party, which meant so much to us. Our photography and videography package included an engagement shoot, and when we first saw those photos, we immediately knew we made the right choice. The engagement photos came out so amazing that it made us even more excited to see how our wedding day would be captured. Raymond and his team truly went above and beyond on our wedding day. They were there from the very beginning, starting with our Chinese and Vietnamese tea ceremonies, and stayed all the way through the reception and dance floor. Every team member had such a clear vision for what to capture, and they absolutely delivered. One thing we really appreciated was that Raymond knew exactly when to step in and direct our wedding party and family members during photos. Weddings can get chaotic, especially with a large group, but he helped everyone remember what to do, kept things moving, and spoke up when needed. If someone was being a little too much or things started getting overwhelming, Raymond made sure we were still getting the photos and moments we wanted. That meant so much to us and made us feel really taken care of throughout the day. The Passion Studio team captured every part of the day so beautifully, and the photos and videos were everything we asked for and more. We were especially blown away by our wedding video. The way everything flowed together was perfect, and we loved how they included meaningful moments from our officiant, vows, speeches, and all the little details throughout the day. Watching it really felt like reliving our wedding all over again. I honestly expected the turnaround time to be longer, but Raymond shared our photos and videos with us within three weeks, and we were so happy with the results. It is very obvious that Raymond takes his work seriously and is truly passionate about what he does. We will cherish these photos and videos forever and highly recommend Raymond and his team to anyone looking for a photographer and videographer who are talented, professional, thoughtful, and genuinely care about their couples. They exceeded every expectation, and we are truly grateful we chose them to capture such an important day in our lives..

Thank you so much Passion Studio team for capturing our special day. Thanks to you, we can look back and watch the films to remember our wedding day forever and ever!

I was so impressed when she sent detailed guidance on outfits for the session, including a board with suggestions and links! Jessica really goes out of her way to ensure that you are prepared - and most importantly - comfortable for a fun session. We have two young ones, and Jessica made the session fun and engaging for them with games and challenges. She was patient when they needed snack or water breaks, and by the end of the session, they had collapsed into a fit of giggles. We absolutely love our first set of family photos from Jessica and can't wait for more.

I found Jessica online and liked the look of her work. I decided to take the risk and I am so happy I did! Jessica was fantastic with our family, particularly our three boys. She knew how to engage and involve them and use their energy to create moments worth capturing. She was very communicative, well prepared for the shoot, and provided flexibility to work with our specific needs. I love the way our photos turned out (and despite Jessica's engagement skills I was uncertain how the photos would turn out since some of our boys were not particularly cooperative). I would highly recommend Jessica to anyone, especially any families with active kids who are also camera shy. Thank you, Jessica!
