Long overdue on a long review (our wedding was in June haha), but wanted to share about our…read moreexperience with Pure Devotion. The team, Eric and Connie, is great - they're super sweet and passionate people. They offer a broad selection of services for you to mix and match depending on your needs, so if you are an overwhelmed couple like we were, then this is perfect for you :) We used them for videography, flowers and props, lighting, and photobooth. Videography: Eric handles all the videography and photography, and he's very knowledgeable about his craft. We were a little on the fence when we first started looking for a videographer (we didn't know if we could justify spending thousands of dollars for a short video), but Eric was very no pressure and just happily showed us samples of his work. He patiently made sure he understood what we were looking for, we ended up going with the "cinematic" style 4K highlight video (~3 minutes long). On the wedding day he showed up with 3 assistants and a drone to capture all the footage. It took roughly 3 months to get the video link and he mails a USB with the remaining raw footage. He went the extra mile and helped us edit the raw footage as well so that it was watchable and not a jumble of clips. Flowers: Connie did an amazing job with the flowers. I just sent her pictures of what I wanted, we discussed which flowers were important to have, and she delivered beautiful bouquets, aisle pedestals, guest table decor, and the dining centerpieces. I actually wanted taller centerpiece vases than what she had in inventory and she went out and got some! Flowers looked fresh and great through the night. We also had her help us with draping background for our garden setting. She went out to the site to make sure the draping would work and checked in with me before making adjustments day of. She kindly stayed through the ceremony to help move the flowers to the reception area afterwards. She has a ton of props in the studio, so don't forget to ask her what you want to rent! Lighting: We rented uplights to put up around the room. They also have pin lights and other fancy lights. The uplights were technically fine but I think we had missed communication on the color, so check beforehand :( Photobooth: Unfortunately can't recommend this service. Supposed to be backdrop with props manned by an attendant that prints out the photos. Camera ended up being unattended, photos mostly blurry/out of focus. Thank you, team! Couldn't have done it without you!

Connie and Eric did a phenomenal job at our wedding; they were a "one stop shop" for us. They had…read morebeautiful decorations/lighting and backdrops at our banquet, great floral arrangements and bouquets, a great DJ, and a great photo booth. They were very responsive to our e-mails and texts and went over and beyond to ensure a smooth wedding! Eric was very flexible to our last minute requests on backdrop design and photo booth strips. Connie spent a lot of time with us the week of our wedding to tie up loose ends. They are a great team! I highly recommend Pure Devotions to anyone looking for wedding services. It's much more easier than going to multiple vendors. Thank you, Connie and Eric for making our wedding run smoothly!

He puts in his time and makes sure that he delivers good quality photos and videos at a very good pace. I especially loved how he put everything together in my video and how he captures details of the decor in photos. He finishes the work quickly and gives you enough time to make any edits to make sure it's perfect. Besides his 5 star quality work, he is a great person to work with. On our wedding day he and his crew made my husband and I feel very comfortable and relaxed the entire time. Even our guests were speaking highly of them and some ended up hiring him for their own events. I highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for a videographer/photographer for their events!

It was a huge relief during our big day knowing we had a team that knew exactly what they were doing and guiding us along the way. Max is a legit photographer and knows his craft. The portfolio of photos and video on his site and here are pretty representative of what you'll get. My wife wanted a specific bright and cool look to the photos and he nailed the style perfectly. He even pulled us aside later during the day where there's a short 30 minute window or so to capture shots when the light hits you just right. A lot of the shots during that session ended up being some of the best shots in our collection. We opted for the package with his team, who were also great. We figured this helps free up Max to capture our big moments while his crew could capture alternate angles, details and B-roll footage. All of this contributes to elevating your highlight video, which turned out amazing. Overall, would definitely recommend and a big thumbs up for Max. Very happy with the experience and how the photos/videos came out!

We hired Max for a wedding last August and he and his team are incredible! I began my search for…read morePhotographers within budget on Thumbstack and he responded to me with a very affordable quote. He is kind, thorough, and very open for discussion. I knew is was the one for us! Max showed up for our rehearsal on time and met our wedding party and family and it felt so great to have us all working together. Him and his assistant went over and beyond on the wedding day. Photos at every angle and different lighting, and he stayed way past the scheduled time just to make sure he got the best possible photos for my husband and I. We are very happy with our choice. The only thing I wish we had done differently, was give Max a list of specifically who to have one on one photos with. My husband and I are both a little passive, especially on a distracting day like our wedding day and did not speak up about getting more individual photos. Our fault for not giving him a list! Lots of group photos for sure, and the most beautiful photos of the two of us!

Sandy is truly one of the most skilled newborn/family photographers in the bay area! I was lucky to…read morefind Sandy 4 years ago with my first born and the newborn photos ended up being incredible! It was an easy decision to go back to her with our second baby. Here are some of the ways that Sandy truly stood out: - Both our babies were born around Christmas holiday and scheduling was not an issue at all for Sandy. She checked in ahead of the appointment to ensure we didn't need to reschedule (much needed for parents that just gave birth recently) and had our themes ready prior to us arriving. - The themes were 10/10, better than what we could've envisioned ourselves. And our themes were generic such as lemon or Christmas. - The amount of patience Sandy has is seriously amazing! Our second baby was a bit harder to photograph compared to the first, in addition to a toddler who wasn't in the mood for pictures, and it didn't phase Sandy at all. She took her time to make sure she was able to capture each theme well and had tips up her sleeve to get the toddler to take some pictures. I highly recommend going with Sandy if you're considering photo sessions! She goes above and beyond to ensure all the special moments are captured and the pictures are so incredibly worth it.

I'm truly delighted to share my experience working with Sandy! Her communication was wonderful from…read morethe very beginning, from arranging the appointment and customizing the scene setup to sending the photos. Everything went so smoothly. I am really impressed by her talent with infants and children; she was fantastic with my newborn and my 2-year-old. Her ability to craft stunning scenes is also incredible. And when it comes to her photography and editing skills, they are truly outstanding--just look at the edited photos, they're absolutely stunning! You won't be disappointed with Clairbare Studios and Sandy's gift for capturing beautiful, lasting memories of your little ones.

Mared, Viet & team were phenomenal to work with. We were on the hunt for a customizable reception…read morevenue, and happened to come across Mac House. I sent an email one night and got a response from Mared so quickly that it almost felt too good to be true. While some brides want the all-inclusive venue with everything provided, I really didn't care about expensive fancy chairs, in-house catering, florals, etc. I just wanted a space that allowed me to DIY as much as I could. Mac House provided me with the perfect blank slate that actually ended up having some bells and whistles that helped elevate my basic set-up, like customizable lighting and a convenient roll-up door that served as the perfect spot for our taco caterer. The team was very friendly and accommodating throughout the entire process and made me feel so comfortable in their space. Following their Instagram page, I learned that, aside from the amazing video production work they do, they are also involved in a variety of humanitarian initiatives. I'm happy to have been introduced to such an interesting local business and will stay in touch, even if just to root them on in their endeavors.

The #1 perk about Mac House has to be the flexibility of the space. Not only is there a large open…read morelobby, but there's also an entire studio in the back waiting to be decorated. The studio was large enough for 100 or so guests, 13 tables, two bars (one alcohol and one water/coffee/tea, and food buffet - plus a dance floor for everyone to dance on. Best of all, unlike many venues, you're welcome to use any vendor (party rentals, catering, etc) that you want. This was a huge plus for us! With a little imagination, we were able to transform the entire space to fit the 'Dancing Under The Stars' theme we dreamt up for our wedding reception. Since they're a video production studio, it was super easy talking with them about how to light the entire space. At the end of that night, my wife and I, and all our guests had the most wonderful evening!

So here's the deal. A little confession. I tend to get more messages on Yelp that mention my…read moreprofile photo, than I do for my damn restaurant reviews. People think the profile photo of me was some sort of staged thing for a professional project I must be doing. Not true. I was just making some food in my kitchen. But it WAS taken by a professional. And that professional is Vladimir Perlovich. I never asked Vladimir to take my photo...but he's so great with his camera that he just saw something and asked me to stop what I was doing and look at his camera. I'm not a photogenic guy, but Vladimir somehow made me look about as good as possible with that photo. And if he can do that with me, I'm sure he could do something even better for you! All kidding aside, I've seen work he's done with both portrait photography and industrial photography and it's really stunning stuff. Beyond that, he's just a super professional, Harvard educated guy with both a stellar film and still photography resume. How many photographers are available for hire with his pedigree? Not many. If you have a chance to hire Vladimir for a project, book it quick. And hey, maybe you'll get a great Yelp profile photo out of it too!

Looking for a photographer to capture your big moments, who makes you feel comfortable and beyond…read moreeasy to work with ? You have to work with Toanven Photography because you will not regret it at all and get everything you want and more!! Toan and team are the absolute very best - worked directly with Toan, Martin, Trieu, and Michael and all very professional and super easy to get along with! We used Toanven photography for our engagement photoshoot / pre wedding , church wedding ceremony at St.Jarlath Catholic Church and civil wedding at Nella terra cellars. Also used their videography services which was also really great. When looking for a photographer , we wanted to make sure that our photographer is easy going, can help guide us and has experience with our venue. I discovered Toanven photography because my best friend used their services for her wedding and after finding out Toan had lots of experience at Nella Terra we knew we had to meet him. On our first zoom call Toan was beyond welcoming and excited which made us excited. He made us laugh, made us comfortable and answered all of our questions and broke down the whole process. Before the wedding Toan helped us better plan our timeline for photos and took his time to understand what were the "must have photos". He gave us alternatives on how we can still get pictures with others and saving time. His advice on a family shot list was super helpful as well. On wedding day Toan was just the person I needed around me with all the craziness of wedding day. His personality bring calmness and he is quick to think if a photo location doesn't work well for the lighting - he found better positioning and areas for the photos the look flawless. Beyond helpful when it came to posing, how to stand , where to look and capture all the right angles. Lastly, Depending on the package you go for, you will get a set number of edits photos and our photos were so amazing it was hard to reach the number of edits we can use. That says a lot about how the quality of the photos are and how they already shine! So reach out to Toanven photography, I promise you will love every moment!
