Anna is simply magical! You can't go wrong with hiring her to capture your special moments, and our…read morereview is long overdue. We originally reached out to Anna to photograph our City Hall wedding. Due to a series of unforeseen circumstances, we had to postpone everything until we got a handle on everything. Anna was patient, kind, and empathetic as she provided the details for rescheduling our photoshoot. By the time we were ready, we were in a new chapter of our lives and had to adjust the photoshoot accordingly. Anna was superb in accommodating us and captured a series of incredible shots (nothing short of a miracle considering how camera shy both of us are). We ended up ordering a Lite Album of our photographs, and it's one of our most cherished possessions. We're incredibly grateful for Anna's organization, artistic vision, and her reassurance throughout the whole process. She really made the whole experience seamless, and we'd love the opportunity to take family photos with her the next time we are in NorCal!

We had the perfect experience working with Anna on our surprise engagement photo session…read more Thanks to Anna and her experience with engagement sessions the whole process ran very smoothly. Coordinating the surprise proposal while not making my partner suspicious and at the same time being sure everyone was in the right place at the right time without being able to directly communicate in the moment takes some planning. Anna scheduled a zoom call a week before the proposal and walked me through all of the details including clear instructions (with google street view screenshots and coordinates) and tips on how to position myself and my partner to get the best lighting. We absolutely love our photos. Anna really captured the emotions of the moment and also the beauty of the scenery. She really has an eye for capturing beautifully artistic shots and we are impressed by the quality of the photos. We were able to capture many awesome shots from all of our favorite spots on Stanford's campus.

Andria is THE best!…read more I stumbled upon her Instagram account trying to look for local photographers throughout the San Francisco area. We were getting married at SF City Hall and I particularly wanted someone who had experience with city hall lighting and what not. Out of all the photographer portfolios I checked out there was something about her photos that I absolutely loved so we emailed her and the rest is history . . . We love her! Not only was she awesome to work with (especially for a couple like us who do not know how to pose. Hah!) but she was very patient with us (too much craziness with family pictures) and such a wonderful person. We received our pictures two weeks later and she frikken delivered! The packaging and her stamps were awesome but our pictures were AMAZING!! I am obsessed with all of them. Thank YOU so much Andria! We would definitely go to Andria again for future events! We 100% recommend her to everyone for any occasion!

If you have gotten this far and heard of Andria Lo you're only one step away from meeting an…read moreamazing artist who is professional, creative, and extremely talented. If you don't want to read the entire review that's okay, just send her an email now to introduce yourself. My wife and I had an elopement style wedding so the most important decision we had to make was choosing the best photographer to capture our intimate ceremony. We live in Southern CA but wanted to get married in the Bay Area so right off the bat meeting a potential photographer in advance was not the easiest. But from the very first emails to the FaceTime calls and up to the day we met for the first time in person on our wedding day, Andria made everything happen as if she were an old-time friend. She even helped us pick the location of our wedding at Trojan Point on Mt. Tam. Of course opinions on art are subjective and you can see from Andria's portfolio the style of photographer she is, so all I can say is her work is phenomenal. The look of her photos was exactly what we wanted. The lighting, the editing, the scenery, all perfect for us. After we received the wedding photos (in surprisingly fast turnaround) I commented to Andria that it looks like there was more than one photographer at our wedding because she caught so many moments in what felt like the blink of an eye. We were extremely lucky and fortunate to have Andria shoot our wedding. We already have the next photo shoot with her planned in our minds and will fly back up to work with her again. If you read this whole review, take the next step and reach out to Andria. She's the best.

He's professional, friendly, thinks on his feet and is always calm (a hugely important trait because then you & your wedding party will be calm!). Before selecting Joe we met 4-5 other photographers that we felt were good, but we decided on Joe because his photographs made all the others look like amateurs. His photographs are really that amazing! It is through my beautiful wedding photos that I remember and continue to cherish my special day; a day that Joe Lam helped to make happen.

I rely on RR Media to photograph big events for my tech company's resource group. A reliable,…read moretalented and charismatic professional, I love to work with Romel. He has photographed big events for me such as: Slutty Vegan Facebook community festivals Graduations Church events Down to more intimate settings such as: Birthdays Funerals Graduations Sporting events for my daughter His turnaround for photographs is extremely efficient, reasonable and high in quality. In fact, his work for the Slutty Vegan event is currently their most liked IG pic. Needless to say, when I need a photographer, RR Media (especially Romel) is my #1, 2, and 3 choice for ALL of my events (big or small). My next event will focus on their mobile photo booth. The lighting for the pics is AMAZING!! Pretty reasonable pricing on it as well. Definitely recommend using his services. Go on and give him a call. You won't regret it! Plus, you can have a really cool, personable and reliable professional at your next event :) :) :)

He is talented, creative, patient, accommodating, super fun and easy to work with! He is simply the best and I would give him 10 stars if I can : ) My husband and I can't thank Evan enough for our beautiful wedding photos & videos, and all his help. Evan was initially recommended to us by a friend. When we first connected, we found him very friendly and loved that he took time to answer all our questions patiently. Without a second thought, we decided to go with him for our big day. We had so much fun shooting for our pre-wedding photos, and the quality of photos and the album turned out incredibly beautiful and artistic. We received lots of compliments from our family and friends. On our wedding day, I was really touched that Evan not only captured the precious moments for us, but also went beyond his responsibility to help us make sure everything was on schedule when our wedding planner clearly failed to do her job that day and did not check in with any of the vendors to ensure everyone's following the timeline. Thank you again Evan for your amazing work!! 100% Recommending him for anyone who is looking for a great photographer : )

There are not enough words to describe how amazing Vee is! We met her at a wedding faire and she…read morewas so professional, and had stunning albums showcasing her work. She was so easy to contact and have video calls with. She really listened about what we liked, were comfortable with, and what we were wanting. She really is a super star! She quickly and respectfully got large families and groups in place to get our images before the ceremony. This allowed us to have some private time taking photos during our cocktail hour, with time for us to enjoy our cocktail hour! During the ceremony she was very respectful and mindful of the guests. She captured the shots without being a distraction or blocking views from guests. Throughout the night she captured incredible shots! I've been to a number of weddings where the photographer has a camera in front of all the guests' faces. This is not Vee. She is discreet on the side taking photos, so everyone is comfortable, and the photos came out to perfection! We received so many compliments! I would book with Vee all over again, without question! She is so talented and has such a great eye for photography!

Ok so I read all these reviews before reaching out to Ken and was skeptical how a photographer…read morecould have 5s across the board. But now I get it - Ken is the most talented photographer I've worked with and that too with such a pleasant attitude. My fiancé and I wanted engagement photos in city hall and palace of fine arts and throughout the whole shoot we did little to no work! Ken had every pose, location and idea in mind and was also experienced with couples wearing Indian outfits. He made the process so easy and fun for us. His passion shines through in his work and the photos turned out absolutely beautiful. Thank you so much Ken - can we give you 6 stars?

My partner and I got engaged at the end of February. I had a simple proposal plan of taking her…read moreout to San Francisco's iconic Pier 7, where I would drop down on one knee and try to fool her into thinking that a lifetime with me really wouldn't be that bad. Fortunately, the delightful Duende duo of Ken and Brady were on hand to beautifully capture every single moment (not to mention from every single angle) for eternity. This alone would've been worth five stars. But what really puts Ken and Brady over the top is their professionalism and desire to go above and beyond! I had first contacted Brady back in December to discuss this surprise proposal idea. We soon met in person, signed off on a contract, and then planned out every single detail of how they would hide, where I would drop to one knee, which direction I should face, what exact time the sun would be setting, what to do in the event of an emergency (like an idiot tourist suddenly blocking line of sight), etc. Leading up to the big proposal, I was understandably a trainwreck of nerves, but absolutely none of this was due to worrying about the photographers possibly dropping the ball. But then mother nature decided to make things interesting. Even during the driest winter that we've had over the last godzillion years, it decides to dump rain on my parade. Thankfully, Ken and Brady had me prepared ahead of time with an oversized translucent umbrella, and were both willing to brave the wrath of our one-day typhoon season in order to get the perfect shot. By sheer serendipity, the rain decided to stop just before we made our way onto the pier. By even sheerer serendipity, a schmuck like me got the most amazing person to say yes. As we were walking back towards Embarcadero as an engaged couple, Ken had a brilliant idea of posing us in front of some active F-Market trolleys. The results truly speak for themselves. Finally, one little insider secret for you Yelping lovebirds. I had originally contacted a few different wedding photographers in hopes of shooting my proposal. Ken and Brady weren't just the photographers whose portfolio I most admired, but they were also the cheapest! So go and book them for your event before they come to their senses and jack up their prices. Keep in mind however that I am calling first dibs on DuendePhoto once we finalize our wedding date.
