I had a poor experience with Deanna. Our engagement session went below ok. On the day of our…read moreengagement she seemed less proactive which caused to miss major moments. Very less guidance on how to pose. When I choose her I read the reviews here in Yelp and I wanted someone to capture all the candids from the event and her services were not cheap ($350/hr)...and it was very clear why - So many of pics were ruined bc she didn't make sure everyone was looking at the camera (Note* this is from the directed shoot with my fiancé) when I asked her why the part of the picture is blurred? She responded it's the weather and the lighting!! During the event a lot of back of the head pictures were taken and when I asked her why is this? She responded it tells a story, everyone I shared the album has said they were embarrassed to see bald heads!! Some Pros (along with cons): - She is very calm, which is good and bad! Good for still photography, but at an event I would expect a photographer to go around and capture the best moments. Most of the time she stayed away from the crowd hence the strange photos. - The good news is she took a montage video which came out good, not great, but okay...so our video did catch a lot of the highlights of our evening. - She is very professional, due to the weather conditions on my engagement event guests arrived a little late and I requested her to take an extra time shift and her calendar was open hence she agreed to it. - I have given my honest feedback on how the photos turned out, she tried to recrop, reedit the album which was nice of her to accept feedback and work to make the customer happy but honestly the moments are missed so there is nothing much to be done in my situation. Total amount spent for one evening - $1400 for that amount it's definitely not worth it. (*Note attached photo samples covers my frustration of the 60% album the rest of the 40% came out decent) Hope this helps!

I would 100% book them if you looking for a photoshoot!!

We decided to do a cake smash Photoshoot for our baby's 1 year birthday. After seeing the many cute…read morecake smash backgrounds that Tangram Studio had, we decided to book with them! Ted was very responsive and we were able to book an appointment for the following week (we took a day off in the middle of the week). We also decided to do the add on for family and pets. I LOVE that there's an option to include our furry family members! As much as I tried to plan ahead and get to the studio in time that day, my baby decided to fight his nap that morning. He eventually fell asleep.. but way too close to the time we had to leave. I reached out to Ted ASAP to ask if there was flexibility to push the photoshoot back a bit so my baby could take an hour nap so he's less likely to be fussy during the photoshoot. He had another scheduled shoot after ours but was flexible for us to come a bit later than scheduled which I was very grateful for! When we got to the studio, the cake smash background was already set up! The studio was so clean! There was a room for us to change the baby and put all our stuff in - there was also a changing table and diaper pail in there! Ted and his assistant were so great with our dogs and baby! They were patient and knew how to get our baby to laugh and look at the camera. There were a few times where I was ready to give up because handling a baby and two dogs for a photoshoot was a lot more difficult than I thought it would be! Ted was so patient with them and continuing to try his best to take the perfect shot for us. I really appreciated that because there were some amazing photos we would have missed out on if not for Ted! Cleanup was super easy - we brought wipes to wipe our baby down and then took him to the bathroom to do a quick rinse before leaving. I was surprised that we got our proof gallery two days later! The unedited proof gallery pictures were honestly high quality and I would not have known they were unedited if they didn't tell me! We received our edited photos 2 weeks later. I was so happy with the fast turnaround time! I asked Ted if he could fix my hair in the family pictures and he was able to do so for me (thank you!!). I'd absolutely come back for another photoshoot in the future and would highly recommend Tangram!

After looking at many portfolios online, we reached out to Kushboo and had a conversation. She answered all our questions, provided input on the outfits that my daughter had chosen, and suggested locations based on my daughter's wishes. She even visited the locations and took a video for us a couple days before to make sure that the current conditions of the location matched our expectations. She was prompt and made my daughter feel at ease. She had set poses that she wanted my daughter to do, but also allowed time for playful moments. We had such a hard time narrowing down the options to 15 finished photographs. I'm so happy with the experience and the work. Highly recommend

We cannot recommend Zha Zha Photography highly enough! From our very first phone call to the final…read moregallery, Zha Zha exceeded every expectation. We chose her after seeing her portfolio-her previous work at our venue perfectly matched the style and composition we envisioned for our own wedding. During our engagement shoot, Zha Zha immediately put us at ease. Neither of us is used to being in front of the camera, but she made the experience fun and relaxed, helping us feel natural and not take ourselves too seriously. The engagement photos turned out beautifully-we loved them so much that we used them in our wedding guest book and at our rehearsal dinner. Throughout the entire process, Zha Zha was warm, friendly, and a fantastic communicator. On our wedding day, she was always present and supportive, even stepping in to help with little things like tying my bow tie! Her eye for lighting and composition is truly impressive, and her attention to detail in both framing and editing made every photo look incredible. She also worked seamlessly with our videographer, ensuring everything went smoothly. One unique and invaluable aspect was that Zha Zha speaks Chinese, which made communicating with our families so much easier and helped everyone feel comfortable and included. This was especially important during our Chinese tea ceremony, where she was able to capture all the important moments and ensure nothing was missed. Her eye for lighting and composition is truly impressive, and her attention to detail in both framing and editing made every photo look incredible. We were surprised to receive a preview gallery of 75 photos just a couple of days after the wedding. It was wonderful to be able to share these beautiful moments with our family and friends so quickly. If you're looking for a talented, professional, and genuinely caring photographer, look no further than Zha Zha!

I'm still obsessed with how she captured our day! Our engagement shoot eased all our camera nerves. Zha Zha guided us into simple, natural poses and kept things light and fun, even when we felt awkward. On the wedding day, she went way beyond photography. Whether it was fetching a last-minute detail or gently steering our schedule back on track, she handled everything without missing a beat. Her second shooter was just as warm, competent and professional - they both made us feel completely at ease. In our pre-wedding meeting, she covered every little detail, from where to stand for ceremony shots to how to angle our hands during vows, so when the day arrived we knew exactly what to do. Everyone at the wedding commented on how wonderful she was. With her warm personality and sharp attention to detail, Zha Zha made our day run smoothly and feel truly enjoyable. We can't recommend her highly enough!

I found Michael though my man's cousin (she also happens to own the home where we hosted our…read morewedding). I had called 2 photographers in Gilroy for my wedding, and while Michael was about $500 more expensive than the other one - I realized that getting photographs of the day in the style I preferred was worth the extra expense. We had a few phone conversations and he worked me up a price for the wedding day. (I was not going to need engagement photos OR actual prints). My price included X hours of his time at the ceremony, his retouching/sorting of shots, and then posting ALL photos for me to download. Michael was very pleasant and engaging on the phone and was another vendor that I knew I could count on (whew). You pay 1/2 as a deposit and the other half a few days before the wedding. I met him about 30 mins before the ceremony and he was already shooting away. I had supplied him with a shot list, some photo styles I liked, and a couple other specifics (like that I wanted shots of all the food at my wedding). He covered all of those off. I had also told him I really wanted the group shots to be FAST FAST so I could get them done and enjoy my reception. Now I don't remember all of it, but I recall those shots maybe took 20 mins - which might be a world record. My cake cutting turned out to be after his time ran out - but he was a trooper and stayed the extra time without charging me. In the end there were nearly 700 shots posted for us to download! Everyone always tells you that the day is a blur, and they were right, I barely remember a thing! Thank goodness I have a record of the day with 700 photos. Highly recommend.

SO, I decided to hire Photo3lements for the Holiday party I was planning at AT&T Park for 350 people. They HIT IT OUT OF THE PARK!!!!! (see what I did there?) They provided 2 photographers, photo booth with 2 attendants AND a videographer. Photographers: They were able to capture all aspects of the event in a unique way. I had give them little guidance, as they knew what they were doing. They captured everyone and were everywhere. Something I was concerned with given how big the venue was. They were on it and SUPER pleasant to work with! Photo booth: FUN FUN FUN! The quality and variety of all the props and backdrop options was wonderful! Allan's design of the background on the photos were perfect! Aesthetics are extremely important to me when I am planning events and what he produced was perfect! The attendants made it even more fun and kept the line moving smoothly. I am SO glad that we added this feature!!! Videography: This was such a GREAT option to add!!! Not only did they capture various parts of the event, but they produced a BEAUTIFUL surprise video montage for someone special here. They were discrete and did such a beautiful job putting it together. I am not easy to please. I plan a lot of events and take pride them being executed flawlessly. I am so glad that I hired Photo3lements, as they were a great partner, easy to work with, attentive and positive. I am impressed and hope to used them for ALL of my future events! Thank you so much Allan!
