We LOVE Bobby! Bobby photographed our July 2017 wedding. He met with us to discuss the wedding…read moreand what we wanted. He really took the time to get to know us. He always responded quickly and professionally. He also took the time to come out to our property. (We got married at a family ranch in Redwood Valley) He even took the time to make recommendations for bands we could use. Bobby was always so calm, cool, and collected, just what a bride needed on her wedding day. Bobby got our pictures back so quickly! We were looking at the pictures while on a beach on our honeymoon. The pictures were amazing and they are something we will always treasure. He captured our special day perfectly! We know if we ever want to capture special moments in our lives we will be going back to Bobby. We highly recommend Bobby for any of your photography needs!

Bobby has been my photographer for both professional and personal photos. He has an intimate,…read morecritical eye that seeks uniqueness, contrast, and mystery in his photos. He is flexible in the way he works (outcall, availability, formal/informal), and easy to be around. I hate "staged" photos, and he easily works around that, and evokes laughter and spontaneity. He has a knack for being "invisible" at the right times, and yet getting the great shot. His editing is quick turnover, and he has also helped me/us with special orders, custom projects, etc. I highly recommend him for portraits, weddings/ceremony, holiday cards, website, and probably much more.

Hollie Nass has been photographing my family since I was pregnant with my son 15 years ago, and I…read morewouldn't trust anyone else. She captured my maternity photos and has continued to photograph our family ever since. Every session is relaxed, fun, and full of genuine moments, she always brings out the best in us. Hollie is more than just a photographer, she's become a dear friend. She truly cares about the people she works with and builds lasting relationships. That connection shines through in her photos. While she's captured our family memories, I've seen her incredible talent across the board. Maternity, newborns, weddings, school portraits, she has done it all, and she done it beautifully. She has a natural gift, especially with babies, and a true eye for capturing meaningful moments. She will always be our family photographer, and I recommend Photography by Hollie to anyone looking for someone genuine, talented, and kind. She's one of a kind.

We found Larsens Photography after viewing their albums on display at a winery in Hopland and on…read morethe recommendation of the wedding venue coordinator we were working with. I like that they are a wife and husband team providing ample coverage for all of the important photo moments. I used to do wedding photography/family portraits and we had three other professional photographer friends attending the wedding. (We wanted those friends to enjoy the wedding, not work it!). The other photographers there, as well as other guests really liked Maile and Neils and their coverage of our wedding. None of them complained of things they should've done differently. Several guests asked us for their cards. They weren't at all obnoxious and in your face all of the time. They let us enjoy our big day while ensuring they got all of the important shots. We loved their web posting of many shots and their little story about our wedding on their blog. It was great to see pictures so soon--during our honeymoon. Besides the quality we saw in their work, the reasons we selected Larsens as our photographers was because of the value received and the short turn around time. Their price was a bit better than most AND included prints plus EVERY shot on a thumb drive. Most photographers charge a lot extra for this. Plus, we received the items right after we returned from our 2 week honeymoon. Some photographers take months to get pictures out. Maile and Neils are great photographers and very nice people to boot!

This review is LONG overdue from our late May 2015 wedding! Words cannot express the amazing team…read morethat is Larsen's Photography. Comprised of incredible husband and wife duo, Niels and Maile, this pair was truly an invaluable component of our special day, helping make it one of the most magical experiences of our entire lives. My husband and I knew early on we wanted a photographer tag-team if possible, to capture more ground and key moments throughout the wedding. These two, however, exceeded our wildest expectations! From the moment I reached out after admiring their stunning work online, Maile was not only super responsive, but incredibly friendly, warm, and helpful. I knew almost immediately Larsen's was our ideal partner. Over the months leading up to the big day, Maile sent a host of thoughtful, supportive emails, and was great about walking me through all the details and providing lots of great tips and information. On the day itself, Maile and Niels helped both my husband and I stay calm, smile, and laugh--even during the most stressful moments. They really went above and beyond in every sense of the word (our guests could not get over the creative poses they displayed on the dance floor in order to get the best shots of speeches and dances!). Even after all of that, the best was yet to come. Maile worked ever so quickly to draft a beautiful photo blog profiling our day, and deliver to us a beautiful slideshow (with music!) and several discs and drives filled with countless amazing photos. Their website does not do their work justice by any means--our loved ones are still ranting and raving about how stunning the photos are! These cherished mementos are some of the only tangible elements of our wedding that will help tell our story in ways words never could for years to come. For all these reasons, we can never thank the Larsen's enough for being such phenomenal partners whose passion for their craft is unmistakable. Highly, highly, highly recommended!!

We were so impressed with Cassandra! She is a pleasure to work with and was responsive from the…read morestart. We appreciated her timely communication and after speaking with her, we could sense that she is warm and welcoming. As we were both feeling a bit camera-shy, this was a great comfort to us. After receiving our first photos, we were awestruck at the quality of her work. She was able to achieve such stunning use of light and capture the natural beauty of Mendocino. She gave helpful prompts to guide us during the photo session yet let us be ourselves at the same time. I can't stop looking at the photos she took. They are truly remarkable! If you are considering Cassandra for your photographer, I highly recommend her, both as a gifted photographer and a wonderful person to work with. Thank you for capturing our special day!

Also, I know she must post-edit her images, but it's nothing too over-the top, everything looks very natural. What you don't see in her portfolio is how it is to work with her. She is extremely warm yet professional. For my elopement not only was she able to recommend a wonderful officiant and florist- and picked up the flowers the morning of! she really went above and beyond for her sense of adventure. She was with us the entire action-packed day starting with a walk in the redwoods, a picknick at a winery and even went out on a kayak with us as we free-dove the kelp and explored some other features of the coast. What a great sport! I doubt many photographers would do that, on top of having great skills. I can't thank her enough for helping us our special day, and for capturing it all so well. I look back on our photos nearly daily to remember it.

I cannot imagine a better photographer than Holly. She is beyond talented. She was so incredibly…read morefun to work with. I never once felt the camera was invasive. She made everyone of my guests feel comfortable and happy, and that comes through in the photos. She was able to get the most amazing shots. Our sunset photoshoot with her was something we dreaded, because we didn't want to miss a single moment with our guests. But with her guidance, it became this truly romantic moment I shared with my husband. It was a such moment of stillness and connection that it became our favorite part of the wedding. We are so thankful to her for building that experience for us. She is a true professional.

I found her…read morevia instagram being her awesome adventuresome self, and when I found out she was not only a wedding photographer, but also a heli-ski photographer I knew she would get our personalities and make them shine. Holly has been amazing to work with. She shot our engagement photos up at Kirkwood Mountain and spent the day chasing us around the snow. Her communication style and vision really made us feel comfortable as we like the more candid shots. We loved our engagement photos so much, and Holly as a person, that we brought her to Thailand with us for our wedding. We got married on the island of Koh Samui with 60 of our closest friends and family, and Holly fit right in. She was charming, professional, social, and in the mix getting ever photo we asked over the 5 days. Holly captures all the moments you want to remember. I can't stop looking at our photos. She has a ton of energy, is adventurous with her camera, and isn't afraid to direct you or your people (but not in harsh way) - she gets the best out of you by making sure you are just being you. After working with Holly she's become my go to photographer (and a friend) who I recommend to all my friends for local and destination weddings, photos shoots, and adventure travel!
