She took amazing shots, paying close attention to all the details such as the jewelery, wedding program, venue details etc. The pictures came out amazingly good and our family and friends cannot stop admiring the shots. Ria also has very good work ethics. She is extremely professional. She came to the venues well ahead of time to take detailed shots. She planned the schedule in advance for each event to make sure everything went smooth. She has also been very flexible and accommodating of my requests. Her warm and friendly personality is an added bonus. Thanks to Ria, we have a wonderful treasure of memories captured in beautiful pictures. Overall, Ria provided very high quality work at a very reasonable price. I strongly recommend her for any event.

Pros: - Very communicative and respectful of client's…read morespecific needs; sharing examples and different packages in the process - Worked in our custom logo onto photos - Decent green screen backgrounds and effects - Taking pictures were fast and long lines still kept moving - Social photographer option was fun and captured most of happy moments of our guests throughout the venue - Made extra effort to ensure we were happy and cared for adhering to our detailed needs. - Red Carpet was a nice touch Cons: - Costs were on the higher side once you start add in custom options - Photos are high quality, but not optimal quality - Attendants weren't clear to guests how to properly utilize the custom background options and the digital props - All of the printed photos from the event cut off our logo and hashtag at the corner of the photo; this should've been quality checked before opening up the booth - One background was used for a significant amount; while the other options were chosen

TapSnap created a photo booth for the Santa Cruz Chamber of Commerce annual gala and it was so much…read morefun! Everything was handled by a team of friendly, professionals from TapSnap and they did an awesome job. The team set things up so we could project the images in an animated stream during the event, provided links to the photos after the event, and were on hand to make sure everything was working throughout the whole evening. The photo booth with its digital background swapping and digital props make it so much more fun than a regular photo booth. We are so looking forward to having TapSnap 1171 back at the Santa Cruz Business Fair in the spring. Highly recommend!

My fiance and I got to have Catherine take our engagment photos this past July. I am so happy with…read morethe outcome of our shoot! Shooting with Catherine is very easy and fun. You do not feel staged at all, it is all you and all natural. We did our shoot at Sanborn park in saratoga, Ca. It honestly just felt like we were just having a fun time hanging out at the park. Of course everything was very professional, but it was just fun. I am usually not a huge fan of photo shoots and I never felt awkward or uncomfortable, it was great! I will definately use Catherine again and recomend her to all.

We did our Christmas card photos with Catherine this year and could not have been more happy with…read moreher. Before the shoot she was prompt with her communication, and even when our first session was rained out she quickly got us rescheduled. During the shoot she was extremely friendly and patient, as my 4-year-old wanted no part of getting her picture taken. Catherine took her time and pulled a few tricks out of her sleeve and she was able to get several beautiful shots. The turnaround time for our photos was only a week too - even during this peak season. Since our cards have gone out I've had so many compliments on the photos. (You would never know that my daughter was such an unwilling subject!) Thank you Catherine for a great job - and we look forward to working with you again!

Her ability to connect with kids (and adults) is such a gift, and it shows in every photo. We now have so many beautiful, joy filled pictures of our family thanks to her. Mary is a true professional. She's talented, patient, and an absolute pleasure to work with. I can't say enough good things about her. Highly, highly recommend.

I had Flora do my maternity photo shoot a couple of days ago. Even before the D day, she…read morecoordinated with me very well on my preferred style, clothes and accessories to be well prepared for the shoot. I found her extremely sincere and at the same time very creative too. She gave me a lot of ideas beforehand. On the day, she was well prepared with all her equipment and studio settings both indoor and outdoor. She had even decorated her garden exclusively for the shoot. She clicked away like a pro which is what she is and every photo turned out to be a gem for us (my hubby and me). She did single as well as couple shots. She managed the time very well on the day of the shoot and was very courteous and friendly. She made us feel at ease the whole time. I would definitely recommend her for others who are looking for a professional photographer!

We hired Quianna to shoot our engagement photos and wedding. We took our engagement pictures in…read moreFall 2019 and Quianna was able to help us with poses and make us feel more comfortable in front of the camera. Sadly, due to Covid, our big wedding had to be postponed a couple times and then ultimately cancelled. Fortunately Quianna offered to shoot our backyard elopement and I am forever grateful to have those pictures from our ceremony. It wasn't the day we envisioned but she still captured some amazing pictures. She was always accommodating of our request to change dates (May 2020 to August 2020 to May 2021) and was extremely understanding of our ultimate decision to cancel instead of postponing another year. Although her contract states no refunds, she generously offered us a partial refund due to the circumstances. I highly recommend Quianna if you are looking for a photographer who will take amazing pictures as well as be your personal cheerleader throughout the planning process!

If you have even an inkling that you want Quianna to photograph your big day (or any day for that…read morematter) let me just tell you, you are RIGHT! We met Quianna at our friends wedding and before I had even seen a single photo she had taken, I went right up to her to see if she was available for our date just a few short months later. FIRST OF ALL, she knew off the top of her head when she was/wasn't available and could confirm to me without even looking in her phone that she was indeed available! Although I had yet to see the quality of any of her photos yet, having watched the way she interacted with the bride, groom and their families truly blew me away. Everyone felt so comfortable getting their photo taken, even the men! She gave me her Instagram name and told me to give her some stalking to see if her style matched what I was looking for! SECONDLY, Quianna has a beautiful lightness and airiness to her photos and although I'm more of an edgy, dark color wearing boho girl- I saw just what she was able to capture with her camera and was sold! She captures moments of true love, moments you see in a country music video or romantic comedy- but authentic. I had no doubt that she would capture my husband + my style perfectly while implementing the beautiful airiness she's known for! She did NOT disappoint! Once it was time for our engagement shoot, I couldn't even tell you how long we were out there. I know it was longer than we were supposed to be but it felt like 15 minutes MAX! She made the process so easy, comfortable and even fun! All of my suspicions of just how good she was, was confirmed after that shoot. Which made me even more excited for our wedding, as if that was possible?! Our wedding day came and things were running behind, WAY behind but Quianna showed up to the venue to help us finish setting up + even brought my favorite Cheez-It's to snack on while getting ready! Our wedding was very small and intimate, 20 people including the bride + groom! Truthfully, she couldn't have fit in with our family better! She was sure to get every "Pinterest Photo" we wanted to recreate as well as ones we never thought of!! Our sneak peek was turned around SO QUICKLY with the rest of our photos to follow right after that and as expected, she blew everyone else we looked at out of the water! Qui, thank you for everything! The Vonderwerth Family

After postponing our engagement shoot for 6 months due to covid and then wildfires, we finally got to meet last week! It was definitely worth the wait. Not only is Savannah immensely talented at what she does, but she is also super sweet, professional, easygoing and has such a fun-loving personality. She really cares to get to know you and I think it shows in her photography. She made us feel so comfortable to be ourselves which is huge considering we are usually pretty awkward in front of the camera. We are so thrilled with our sneak peek photos (can't wait to see the rest!) and look forward to working with Savannah again for our wedding next year! Would highly, highly recommend.

Before the wedding, she went above and beyond to help us plan out our day--including helping us decide how much time we needed for each part of the day, how much time to devote to photos, and where to take photos. She even went up to Half Moon Bay and scoped out some locations for us before our wedding day. We also really appreciated her transparent pricing and flexibility to work out the right photography package for us. On the day of, she was so wonderful to work with. She put us at ease, helping us to look natural and have fun in front of the camera (despite us not ever having had professional photos taken before). She was also so fun to hang out with through the day--very relaxed and friendly, which was a great energy to have with us on our wedding day, it felt like having an old friend with us. Finally, we are so happy with our final product. The photos are so beautiful! She really captured our day as we remember it--the people, the locations, the feelings/vibes, and all the special, candid moments were captured just as we remember them. We couldn't have been happier with our experience with her, totally recommend!

She kept us on budget and was always reminding us when certain things were due, such as deposits, etc. Her help was priceless the day of the wedding. My husband and I didn't have to worry about anything. We could totally enjoy the day, and not have to worry about talking to the people delivering the cupcakes or flowers. In fact, she went above and beyond her call of duty, returning a CD I had borrowed from a musician playing at the wedding. Honestly, I don't the wedding could have happened so beautifully without Icea's help and would recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding planner!! :)
