Wow! Brian exceeded our expectations! We hired him to shoot our wedding and with only 3 hours of…read moreshooting, he caught absolutely everything we wanted and more. When it came to shooting all of our portraits, he gave us cues and just enough direction to make them look interesting and natural. He also caught each and every one of our guests in candid photos throughout the day. One of the reasons we chose him is for his editing style. It looks very natural and minimal, just softening a little here and brightening a little there. His lighting and editing make the beauty of that day shine through. You cannot go wrong in hiring Brian. He goes above and beyond to get a great shot. He is very warm, professional and engaging. He responds quickly to emails, calls and texts and is ready to answer any questions leading up to the big day. We cannot wait to have an excuse to hire him again!

Hey guys, just wanted to drop a review for Michael, he did a magnificent job capturing our wedding…read morelast month! We had the wedding in Topanga Canyon where he's located so that was super convenient. Michael compared to other photographers I feel went above and beyond with his effort and ideas and recommendations. He even brought a GoPro to capture the "action shots" haha. On top of that he was very reasonable in pricing. So all in all I highly recommend you go with Michael!

That could go on the cover of Cat Fancy!" Our cat is an indoor only kitty so we were a little nervous about bringing her into a new environment, but Michael was really good with her and went the extra mile to make her feel comfortable. It certainly helps that he's a huge animal lover! Five stars and two thumbs up!

I found Henry Chen Photography through a friend of a friend and through certain wedding websites. I…read morewas very impressed by the lighting and the composition of his work. The pictures he took of other peoople were so beautiful so I decided to hire him for our engagement session in SoCal. We are originally from Northern California, but we wanted to take photos in Socal because that was a place nearest and dearest to our hearts when we were dating. When it came to contacting Henry, he was very prompt and reliable. He was quick to respond and very kind in everything he wrote. He was very accommodating and friendly on the phone. I loved how he took charge and showed us how to model for these photos. He was very easy to talk to and a joy to work with. After it was over, he was also so nice to not charge us overtime because our session ran a little over time. The biggest surprise I got was that he had worked on the photos the same night and had about ten photos up and ready for us to see on his blog. I was amazed by the quick turnaround. When I saw the pictures, I was so happy and overwhelmed by how lovely they were. I was so impressed by his work that I immediately booked him for our wedding in Aug. 2012 after we set a date. He was willing to customize the package and work with our budget. I could have picked a photographer from Northern California, but I was willing to shell out some extra money just to have him there for our wedding. He books up very early so you should book him at least a year in advance. I believe that Henry is a genius at what he does and he's still so young. He has a fresh, modern style and I can't wait until he captures our special day!

My husband and I are extremely happy to have chosen Henry to capture the highlights of our small,…read morebut intimate celebration. Aevitas Weddings was actually the most expensive vendor we had booked for our little wedding--and to us, he was worth every dime we paid for! Henry was extremely professional throughout the entire time, and it was clear how hard he worked both as a professional photographer and as a wedding vendor to ensure that we were as comfortable and stress-free on our happy day as possible. Most people had even come up to me after our event, commenting on how lovely he was, and how much they were looking forward to the end products after seeing how skillfully he directed and organized people for shots, photos, candids, and even the spontaneous request or two. When we finally got all of our images from him on his website, no words can describe how blown away we and our families and friends were by how beautifully they turned out. Photography is sadly one thing that people overlook when planning for a wedding. In the process of choosing vendors, many of my own friends and family had even suggested that I find a cheaper alternative, or rely on someone in the party to take the photos instead. After both the fun, stress-free experience that Henry had provided, as well as receiving such wonderful photos, I can safely say that going with a professional like Aevitas Weddings was the right choice for us. I'll happily recommend Henry to anyone who wants to have a good experience and to have beautiful keepsakes that they can treasure for years to come.

Masha was very responsive and clear through email. At the shoot they both made my family and I feel comfortable which was crucial for our daughter's photo shoot.

Their studio was comfortable and they have a wide variety of backgrounds and costumes. 1 hour can be long for a toddler so our secret weapon was meltable yogurt bites!

She has a personality that will quickly calm any fears you may have about being in front of a camera. She was so calm, understanding and patient with our baby and made us feel comfortable taking pictures. We had a great time and the results were more than we could have hoped for. From the very start, the process was easy; great communication, truly professional interaction, stress-free shoot, and outstanding photos. I highly recommend booking a shoot with Adva. She is wonderful and your pictures will turn out great. Her studio is located in Sherman Oaks and there is plenty of parking in the back. It was worth driving here from Santa Monica :)

Chasing Pleasures is the place to go to make that happen, but I had no idea just how much they'd come through for us. Imagine this: you're trying to remember every last detail - outfits, snacks, wipes, you name it - while gathering up your kids, yourself, and your husband, all dressed and ready to get out the door. After all that, we barely made it to the studio on time, and of course, it wasn't until we walked in that I realized I'd forgotten to check if my all-black shirt was free of lint. That's when Andy, without skipping a beat, pulled out a lint roller and saved my day. It was such a small thing, but in that moment, it meant everything. Chasing Pleasures is a family company, and they get it - they know what families need before we even realize we need it. Thanks to them, what felt like a monumental task turned out to be a breeze. Thank you, Chasing Pleasures, for making something that seemed so hard feel so simple.

But what I especially love about her is that she's so sweet to my kids. We went into het new studio as a family of 5 this time. I have a 4 and 2 year boys, and also a newborn, so it was pretty stressful. But Tally made sure that my kids were occupied so that we can focus on the baby's photos until it was their turn. She makes you feel like family and as calm as possible. She doesn't get frustrated and doesn't rush the process. Also, it takes a special kind of photographer to know how to handle a baby so carefully, and confidently. The photos speak for themselves. I highly recommend Tally for newborn photoshoots.

For the first shoot we were so late and wanted so many different poses and outfits, Tally was so patient working with us for 2+ hours just so I get the photos exactly how I pictured them. For the second session my hair (which was done professionally) decided to get frizzy right before the shoot. Tally tried her best to help me with it and it all worked out! She is super caring. Once the photos were done let me tell you I wanted to keep them ALL!! They were so beautiful they made me cry. She managed to capture the most amazing moments. Tally is very patient, understanding, personable, easygoing, a fantastic photographer and just overall a great person. I recommend 100/100. :))
