By the time our wedding day came around, it felt like having a friend there with us. On our wedding day, he captured every moment so effortlessly. He somehow managed to be everywhere at once while never making us feel like we were constantly posing. Looking through our photos, we get to relive the emotions of the day all over again. Every laugh, every tear, every little in-between moment was captured so beautifully. And then, somehow, he delivered our entire wedding gallery just one week later. We were absolutely blown away--not only by how quickly we received them, but by how incredible every single photo was. Chris is unbelievably talented, professional, and genuinely such a joy to work with. If we ever need professional photography again one day, he'll be the first person we call to capture those memories too. We truly can't recommend him enough.

This review is long overdue. With all of the stress with planning a wedding, it was such a…read morepleasure to work with Mike. Mike was extremely professional and accommodating. I booked Mike to do my wedding and engagement photos about seven months before the wedding. We waited for better weather to take our engagement photos and ended up taking the engagement photos a month before the wedding. We took pictures at several locations in San Francisco, which took several hours because I wanted both day time beach photos and city lights pictures at night, and Mike was such a trooper! Even under the tight time constraints, Mike pulled through and put together gorgeous pictures for us. Mike and his assistant were so nice. They are so creative and perfectly captured this time in our lives that we will keep forever. Mike's turn around is super quick. My wedding package arrived before I was back from my honeymoon. Even though Mike was quick to turn the photos around, he did not skip on the quality.

Neither of us are photogenic and yet we look extremely happy, relaxed and natural. I provided a list of must have pictures & Mike made sure they were all taken as well as taking pictures of places that we had not even thought of, the building (even capturing a cable car in front), the foyer, hearts in Union Square, etc... Mike was like the invisible man during the reception and captured so many candids that really tell the story of how intimate & enjoyable our celebration was. Thank you so much Mike, can't wait to collaborate with you on putting together a wedding album.

Being a Big Sur/Monterey local, Adam provided extremely helpful insight and feedback for my proposal. He definitely helped relieve a lot of the stress during the planning phase of my proposal. On the day of the actual shoot, the day-of jitters was overwhelming at times, but Adam's energy and demeanor was very centering. He was patient and gave my new fiancee and I space to calm ourselves, and also knew when to take charge and guide us with our poses. He also had amazing and creative ideas for how to pose and brought us to local, reclusive spots to take intimate photos. Best of all, Adam always had a smile on his face and he made us really think like we were supermodels walking the runway haha. If you're going to do any photoshoot, especially a proposal or engagement shoot, in the Big Sur/Monterey area, I would highly recommend getting Adam!!
