Doug was recommended to me by a friend and I am so so so glad we hired him! I asked him to shoot my…read morebrother's second wedding reception the day after Thanksgiving in the Bay Area. I wanted someone to come in for two hours and capture family portraits and candids during a ceremony-lite type reception. He was such a grounding, friendly, all-around lovely human who made everyone feel at-ease. And he turned around photos in rapid time and they were all terrific! I will cherish these photos forever, what an absolute treat it was to work with him. Highly recommend!!

Since Doug photographed our wedding four years ago, we have become a family of three and he is now…read moreour family photographer! He photographed our son when he was a month old and also captured our 2019 holiday photos. We're planning to have our 2020 holiday photoshoot with him next month. Doug has such an artistic eye. He manages to capture the sweetest moments, and they're always beautifully composed in a way that is uniquely his. He's also incredibly personable and easy going, so it feels more a like a good friend is taking our photos. In the wake of the pandemic, he also started a new service called Family Photo Editor. Every week we send him up to twelve of our own family photos for him to edit, and when he sends them back to us it's like he photographed them himself. Of course nothing can quite replace Doug, but having him edit our family photos is the next best thing. He recently decided to put Family Photo Editor on hold through the rest of the year, but we look forward to when he starts up the service again. Doug is a talent that you don't come across very often. We feel so fortunate to have him as our family photographer, and can't recommend him highly enough.

He was able to come out on short notice and was willing to stand out in the cold with us just to get the perfect pictures. We had access to all the photos afterwards and were able to pick out ones for editing. Though honestly the photos were so high quality they didnt even need editing. He was even kind enough to do some extra profile picture worthy photos for each of us as well! Will definitely come back when I need more photos

I had an absolute blast working with Curtis. This photo shoot was very special to me because it was…read morea celebration of being cancer free and feeling confident in my body after a unilateral mastectomy. Both Curtis and Dani made me feel totally comfortable, (and down right fabulous)! I am in LOVE with how the photos came out. I felt good and it shows in the finished product. Thank you SO much for the magical experience!!

Curtis was the photographer for our wedding ceremony a few years ago so when we decided to have…read morefamily photos taken for the holiday, we immediately thought of him. He was able to accommodate our four legged family members as well which was very important to us. Once again, he did an amazing job and we can't wait to work with him in the future. We highly recommend his service. **Something we just learned was that all of our family photos came with a "unedited" watermark unlike wedding and event photos. You are allotted 10 photos to have edited (included w. your fee) but every additional photo will have to be edited and comes with an additional cost. For example if you have 30 photos altogether, you picked your top ten you'd like to have edited and want the other 20 for your photo album, you will have to pay for those photos without the watermark. We still recommend his services but it could turn into a $1000 expense if you like all of your photos like we did.

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.

Mike was the ideal photographer to work with for our wedding [and we are very tough/critical…read morecustomers!]. 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. We have a collection of wonderful candid/editorial, photojournalistic pictures that capture the essence of the beauty and emotion around the wedding - better even than what we could have dreamed. Grab Mike if you can and enjoy!

Darryl is as good as they come; super professional and easy going, very personable and most of all…read morean EXTREMELY skilled photographer. He was wonderful throughout the whole process. I have never worked with a photographer before and had no idea what to expect, and he went above and beyond my vision for our engagement shoot in San Francisco to Petaluma. This was literally an ALL DAY shoot where he followed us to all of the places my husband and I went during our first few months of dating to even the place he proposed to me. It meant so much that Darryl was patient through and through and made the experience so memorable and fun! The moments he was able to capture, both posed and romantic shots were absolutely priceless and made my husband and I feel super comfortable and at ease. I loved our photos so much that he shot my bridal shower as well and I continue to recommend him to anyone I know!!! You will not be disappointed!

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.

Jeff Miller is an artistic genius when it comes to Wedding Videography…read more He has done both my sister and my weddings and we highly recommend him. The most important thing about a videographer is that they listen to what it is that you want. He gave me everything that I requested. He has the most amazing eye and has the ability to catch very special "un-planned" moments. The quality & lighting is fantastic and so is the editing. Unlike many other videographers, you can tell that he does his own editing and that he puts time and effort into each piece. He is also very reasonably priced and punctual. You really can't ask for anything more.
