Diep at Warm Heart Photography is a godsend - we appreciate her patience (with us and our Filipino families) and being so knowledgeable about San Francisco City Hall to help us get the perfect shot every time. In planning she was open to some editing preferences of mine, a very long shot request list, and she gave us recommendations for videographers she worked with in the past and that's how we found Nelvir Pictures. For sure we wouldn't have got these amazing pictures if not for her. She spoke to other photographers and the people walking about at City Hall and advocated for us to get the space and clearance we needed when she had an idea for a shot. She was straightforward with us about navigating to our second location, Golden Gate Park/Conservatory of Flowers on a Tuesday during rush hour. She's literally the strongest photographer I know, and she even did our wedding on her birthday!! We got sneak peeks after the first week and the entire gallery back in about six weeks, though it depends on her workload. Her editing is flawless. I'm so so glad we met, we made the right choice for our big day read more

We are so happy we chose Warm Heart Photography (Diep) for both our engagement and wedding day photos. For our engagement shoot, she was incredibly friendly, responsive, and was very accommodating--even bringing a quick-change tent! She made sure to capture every shot we wanted from our shot list, and the photos turned out absolutely stunning and ethereal (exactly like we had envisioned). On our wedding day, Warm Heart Photography was equally amazing. Despite the hectic environment, Diep and her second shooter came prepared, was professional and adapted seamlessly to the ever changing environment. They worked hard to get every shot on our list, and the photos turned out beautiful and candid. (There were so many nice shots, that it was hard to choose our favorites!) They did such an amazing job with capturing everything on the day. We didn't have time to soak in everything around us, but with the photos, we were able to relive the day! Diep has a great work ethic and we wouldn't hesitate to refer her to our friends and family. We're so grateful for her talent, dedication, and kindness throughout the entire process. If you're looking for a photographer who truly cares about her clients and will do everything she can to capture your vision, Diep is the one! read more

Diep photographed our wedding this past fall, an intimate ceremony with just our immediate family. Despite the day starting off a bit off schedule, Diep worked efficiently from the beginning. She remained calm and caring throughout, making us feel comfortable so we could relax and enjoy the day. Without a wedding party, Diep was often by my side, assisting me during various parts of the day. Her warm presence made me feel cared for, even without a maid of honor. Diep was so easy to work with, and our wedding day felt like we had a friend with us the entire time. Diep captured our wedding day beautifully. The joy we felt really comes through. It was a heartfelt celebration from start to finish with our loved ones. We were basking in happiness, and it shines through in many photos. Thank you so much for encapsulating the romance, joy, and authentic emotions of our day. We will cherish these photos forever. read more

I wanted to do an unconventional photoshoot and I trusted Diep after weeks of researching the internet for my top three criteria: 1. Aesthetic, well-coordinated, and beautifully edited photo portfolio showcasing diverse range. Diep also has an informative and user-friendly website and Instagram page. Many reviews describe Diep's style as "light and airy" which is what immediately got my attention. 2. Transparent and competitive pricing. Diep provides several unique package deals that are thoughtfully listed on her website (a rare find!). 3. Warm personality that shines through her branding, testimonials, and client interactions. Trusting Diep's friendly nature, I initially wrote to her for a special "Trash the Dress" photoshoot following a failed engagement, hoping that she would humor my idea as long as I chose one of her photoshoot packages. Turns out, Diep was very supportive and we turned the idea into reality planning over the next few months. Everything was easy - Diep makes efficient use of technology for booking and planning, is knowledgeable about coordinating time for Bay Area weather, and regularly communicated through email for styles, poses, and updates. I included my friends for the photoshoot, and the day of, Diep made everything fun. We were not only impressed by her lead and professionalism, but also felt like pals on vacation taking fun photos together! A truly memorable experience and resulting photos that will surely last a lifetime. read more

Diep is seriously amazing! As a mom of two wild and energetic boys, I know how hard it can be to keep up with them--but she did it like a pro. She made the whole session feel so easy and fun, even when the boys were doing their thing (aka running around nonstop). The photos she captured are so beautiful and full of real, genuine moments. We're beyond happy with them and can't stop looking at them. If you're looking for someone who's patient, talented, and can keep up with kids, she's the one! read more

Before I found Diep, I was looking for a style that I couldn't explain. I kept thinking "light and airy". After searching what felt like forever, I was lucky enough to have found Diep in one of my mom groups on FB. Her portfolio is amazing and I instantly fell in love with her style. Also, she is one of the few photographers whose website is transparent and her pricing wasn't hard to find, and wasn't outrageous! The process for scheduling a session was EASY PEASY, and comes with a quick questionnaire on what you're looking for. After booking I received a response from Diep super quick. The session itself was a memorable one. We went to a trail in Walnut Creek. Diep did let me know that there would be walking before our scheduled date, but I did not believe her haha. There was some walking and going through bushes/plants, but boy it was SO WORTH IT because I love our family pictures. Diep was also very kind and patient with my family, as our little 7 month old was getting sleepy and those who have kids know that once they're tired they are not wanting to do anything. She even had an amazing turnaround time with our photos. I was EXTREMELY surprised with how fast we got them back! I highly recommend Diep for your next photo session!! You won't regret it!! read more

Absolutely love the work Diep did for my maternity photos! I love her light and bright style of photography, and the photos we have give off such a peaceful and dreamy vibe. She provided me with two different dresses to wear for the shoot. It really fit in with the cherry blossom location we were at. I'm no model in any case, but Diep made me feel confident and beautiful during the entire experience. I really appreciate her attention to detail and how she was able to show me where to look and how to pose. The entire experience was stress free, and she was friendly and fun to work with. When we finally got our photos, it was hard to choose which ones were our favorite because there were so many to choose from! I definitely recommend hiring Diep as a photographer at any event! read more

Lucky to have Diep take our family photoshoot. After having chatted in FB messenger, we loved how easy it was to speak to Diep. We wanted a photographer who was experienced with family photoshoots especially with little kids, so hiring Diep was the perfect fit. Diep was always so responsive to my many questions and concerns I had. I could expect a response from him within 24 hours and usually much quicker than that. She did everything she could to empower and coach us into really just feeling like our best selves during the photoshoot. The session was actually really wonderful and intimate, and I actually felt closer and more connected to my wife and children than before. The first time my wife and I saw the photos, we melted! I had to load the photos onto our big screen so my daughters could see it too. The finished photos ooze class, sophistication and refinement. Not bad for a simple flowers and field setting! We are in awe of how filled with love and light the photos are. The most candid, intimate moments, captured artfully. Would highly recommend Diep of Warm Heart Photography. read more

I was looking for a fall mini session and I came across Diep's page on Instagram. I really liked her photography style so I reached out to Diep for more details. Diep was very responsive and easy to communicate with. I ultimately scheduled a 30 minute fall mini session time slot for my family photos. I have two daughters (2 years old and 3 month old) and Diep was so good with them! She was also very patient and directed all of us really well. We felt so comfortable with her throughout the photoshoot. Since we were the last time slot for the day and we had little kids, she stayed a little over our time to capture more photos which we really appreciated. When we received our photos back, we were truly impressed with how many great photos she was able to capture in such a short time span (especially with a baby and a toddler). The process of selecting our photos was really easy and clear. When we received the final edited photos, Diep also threw in an extra edited photo for free which was super sweet of her. We would definitely recommend Diep to others who are looking for a photographer for any occasion. She's great! read more

I recently did a mini-session with Diep; she photographed my family of four, plus our two dogs. She exceeded my expectations and then some - she was so patient and helpful with our kids and dogs, made sure to call everyone by name, and gave us helpful guidance as she snapped her pics. She got us the proofs back super quickly, and then the edited final products even quicker! I was very impressed with her and the final photos. They are perfect. read more

All I wanted for my 40th birthday was a portrait of my family... I wanted to have a portrait with my husband, and my children now that they are still very young and be able to preserve this precious stage... I got inspired by Diep's photos of my friend's family which I saw on Facebook and so I reached out to her. She was very easy to talk to and graciously assisted us with every step. I personally wished for a Fall themed photo shoot and she made it happen! She found this location which was so prefect, just as I imagined. My family had a very memorable shoot, not at all stressful which I feared it would be since I have young kids. We enjoyed the hike, the sceneries, and the sunset... Thank you Diep for making my birthday wish come true! read more
