Tammy M.

Rena goes above and beyond in order to capture the perfect moments with your family. I say this because I have a 2-year old who does WHATEVER she pleases (what toddler doesn't?!) and we still managed to capture such amazing and beautiful shots. We did a mini session (15 minutes) over the holidays and my toddler did NOT nap well that day so we were in Meltdown City the entire time. But Rena was so kind and patient; she graciously stayed for twice the amount of time in order to capture as many photos as possible. I'm so grateful for Rena's patience and expertise. I also love the way she edits her photos, the colors are so dreamy! We'll definitely be back for more!

Rena's photo from our son's first birthday

Rena made very nice photos of us for our son's first birthday! So nice that a few of my friends contacted her later and asked her for photo session too. He was also very kind, came on time and waited forever for us to get ready. Overall very pleasant experience and I will be working with her in the future!

See all

Kathleen is absolutely amazing! I did a 30th birthday studio photoshoot with her, and from start to…read morefinish she made the entire experience feel so comfortable, fun, and empowering. If it's your first time in front of the camera, don't worry at all! She truly knows what she's doing and guides you through posing in a way that feels natural and flattering. She has such a great eye, incredible energy, and makes you feel confident every step of the way. The shoot felt effortless, and the photos turned out better than I could have imagined. If you're celebrating a milestone or just want to feel your absolute best, Kathleen is 100% the person to book. Highly recommend!

Highly recommend Kathleen for newborn and family photography! I decided to get newborn photos done…read morefor my baby when he was 7 days old and I realized we were cutting it close as newborn photos are typically done in the first 14 days of life. Kathleen's assistant Adriana was very helpful in getting us into the studio within a couple of days from the time I contacted them. Her packages and pricing are very fair compared to other studios I had contacted. We decided to do the "Classic" package which allows for both newborn photos and family photos. The booking experience was very straightforward. She provides clear instructions for the process on the photography day. The whole experience on the day of the photos went very smoothly and she was very good at handling baby and making sure he was asleep for the pictures. She also took advantage of his awake moments and captured some really cute awake photos as well. She has a separate room for the newborn photos and a separate room for family photos which I appreciated so that the newborn room always stays clean (she doesn't allow shoes there either) and baby has a quiet/calm space for the photos. Overall great experience with Kathleen!

It was a pleasure to work with Justin Kim. After looking through his work on Instagram and reading…read morethe great reviews on Yelp, we decided to choose him as the photographer for our wedding on November 2025 at Five Crowns. We were very impressed by his professionalism and talent. Since we're not used to taking professional photos, he gave clear directions and made us feel comfortable on our big day. Turnaround time for the edited photos was quick and we're very happy with them. We're thankful to have him as our photographer and will recommend him to anyone that asks.

I was referred to Justin by a friend and am confident that he was the best photographer that I…read morecould have booked for my wedding. From the beginning, he was very responsive and communicative about his services, expectations and things to consider for the big day. As someone who was planning her own wedding and did not have a coordinator, I very much appreciated his guidance and wisdom since he has so much experience with shooting weddings! He was very understanding and patient when it came to details regarding my timeline (which I sent to him only a week before the event). On the day of, we were running late in the morning, but Justin showed up early and even kindly stayed 20 minutes later than scheduled to make sure we could squeeze in all the group pictures that we wanted. Also, to both of our surprises, my uncle showed up with a camera, but Justin was very understanding and accommodating about the matter and made sure both he and my uncle were able to capture shots without getting in each other's ways. Justin did such a wonderful job positioning my husband and me for shots. We did not really come with any ideas in mind, but Justin had such a wide array of poses, both direct and candid, that we absolutely loved. He also did such a great job showcasing both of us individually and fluffing my train/highlighting the beauty of my wedding dress! Andrew, his son and the second photographer, was also so sweet and helped make sure the full effect of my veil was captured on camera. I am also so appreciative that they went out of their way and captured some special moments via video for us to have (we did not have a videographer). Overall, Justin and his team are extremely friendly, professional and flexible with the best possible attitude and careful attention to detail. I cannot believe the sheer amount of pictures that I received from the wedding day and how much time it must have taken them to carefully touch up and edit each and every single photo. Most of my pictures were taken indoors, but the lighting in the photos is immaculate. Truly, I am so grateful to have hired Justin and his team for my special day, and I would not hesitate to book and recommend him for any future photography needs.

The other- plain and simply, high caliber of professionalism, authenticity, and warmth that I've had the pleasure to experience after hiring KLK to work their magic for my engagement and wedding photos at The Ritz Carlton, Laguna Niguel, this past July. Firstly, my fiancé is not a fan of taking any kind of photos (downright hates the mere thought of it), but Paul changed that all for him during our short engagement and wedding photoshoot so that deserves an extra thank you, as I thought that was not possible. And to have many amazing photos to show for the least possible amount of time to shoot is nothing short of amazing, and illustrates the quality of output you would receive from KLK. Not only that, Kristi and Paul are the cutest, most down to earth and friendliest people you'll meet in the industry. We have only received our wedding teasers to date, and they were all outstanding. Can't wait to see the rest of the wedding images which KLK has communicated will complete in the next week or so - we also purchased a custom wedding photo book which we are very excited about! We can't recommend KLK enough and truly made the best choice picking them as our wedding photographers-- simply one of a kind!

Kristi & Paul are amazing! We had a wedding change due to covid and they were so accommodating…read more Ending up having to take photos in their own yard cause a snow storm hit but it turned out beautifully!

Visited here to take birthday photos! Though, it's the perfect self-portrait studio to capture any…read moreoccasion. Parking: They're located in a medium sized plaza with high foot traffic. The parking lot is consistently busy, so finding a spot can be a hit or miss. Ambiance/Environment: The studio is located inside the AR Gallery. Once you enter the AR Gallery, you'll see the studio on your right. They have an extremely small space with two rooms. One room features white walls, and the other room features colored backgrounds. There's many props from headbands and hats to chairs and stools and more! Some props can use a cleaning, but you can't really see it in the photos. Service: I decided to do a walk-in, so I didn't book an appointment or prepay online. They only take walk-ins starting at 11:30. They're not busy on weekdays but busier during the weekends. I completely forgot his name, but the worker that checked me in was nice, efficient, and knowledgable about the offerings. They provide a large screen with gridlines, lighting, and a small remote. They'll give you a timer, so you'll know exactly how much time you have left during your session. Studio Session & Photos: I chose the 5 minute session with the colored background. You'd choose two colors out of five options. Since I chose the colored walls, let the worker know when you're ready to switch colors. They'll pause the timer, switch the background, and continue the timer. The small remote is easy to hide in the photos. The lighting is perfect, and the photos came out amazing! Pricing: All details and prices are on their website. It's easy to book an appointment online. Since my birthday was three days away, the worker gave me a 10% discount. They also offer other discounts. All details are listed on their website. Highly recommend this studio!

After arriving we were told all the spots were taken and reservations were booked. We made a last minute change to go to pose palace and we are so glad we did. They were extremely accommodating and let us come in for a last minute slot. Not only this but the owners were so friendly and patient and showed us how to use the room, camera, and props. Did I mention that the total cost came out to less than half of what photogram would've costed? We will be back !!
