Andrea was very professional and punctual for our event. She stayed longer to ensure she captured all meaningful events for the day, even though it was beyond our contracted photo shoot time. We had a great experience with Andrea and are looking forward to seeing the photos from our event.

Jeff was absolutely wonderful to work with. He photographed an event at a store opening for us and he delivered everything just as we had requested. I would definitely book him again!

Amazing shots! We worked with Christopher for our company offsite and the photos turned out so great. We had a fun team bonding activity and he captured some really fun moments, group shots, vendors, decorations, and basically everything we were looking for. So glad we decided to go with Christopher as he was very reasonably priced and the photos look very professional! It was an outdoor event and he brought several lenses to accommodate all types of shots. We will definitely be working with him again for future events!

Working with David was an absolute pleasure. He's not only an incredibly talented photographer but also a joy to collaborate with. From the get-go, he made coordinating event details effortless. What truly stood out was his genuine effort to understand the emotions and significance behind our event. David's commitment was evident as he arrived early and even hid in his car to maintain the surprise element of our pregnancy announcement. His patience was unwavering throughout the day. The quality of his work was outstanding, capturing both candid and heartfelt moments. Notably, he delivered the final edited photos the very same night – a remarkable feat. One act of kindness that left us amazed was waking up to find David had already shared edited pictures the morning after the event. My family and I truly enjoyed working with him, and we'll unquestionably hire him for future family events. David is a genuine delight to work with, and his professionalism and exceptional photography skills make him a five-star choice for any occasion. Thank you, David, for making our day unforgettable! 📸🌟

Just got the pics, and they are simply wonderful. Lubo captured the event and sentiment beautifully. And, he went above and beyond with staying longer than we asked, giving us two versions of the photos, and being an all around great person to work with. Thank you, Lubo!!

Brian photographed my daughter's 3rd birthday party. We had about 55 people in our backyard and he captured incredible images of the children, adults, food, flowers, decor and some cute family group pictures as well. The lighting in the images is perfect. I have been looking for a good event photographer and I found him! He is also a super nice guy and great with kids! I will definitely be hiring him again for our next party!

Can’t speak highly enough of DeNoise Studios. Our original photographer gave us notice that he was unable to make it to the Grand Opening of our studio, “Aikido By the Bay”, only one week before. We were so fortunate to have found DeNoise. They were incredible from beginning to end! They responded within a few hours, very simple process to hire them. Their photographer was very professional and accommodating to any of our requests and the photos he took are fantastic! He captured everything from up close action photos, to formal group photos, and everything in between. He was literally everywhere and there was a lot going on. But he was completely unobtrusive and wonderful to work with! Would hire them again in a second! Hope to use them for all our future events! Thank you DeNoise for being so wonderful to work with!

Very grateful for the opportunity to have Kuks capture the precious moments of my cousin's engagement. He was very professional and had a great sense of humor. His "unedited" photos were high quality and truly captured the love the couple has for each other. He's aware of the small details to shoot the right poses, angles and use lighting apppropriately. The couple and immediate family took posed pictures and the rest were mostly candid photos of the guests eating, dancing etc. I will be reaching out to him for all our family events. He's that good!!

William was such a pleasure to work with! Crisp colors and details, beautiful lighting and a timely delivery of our order. He coordinated with our Director to position our student dancers in poses that showed them at their best - cuteness and happiness was present in every photo! He was so easy to communicate with, came well ahead of time of the event, to test the lighting, set up equipment and converse about the details. We look forward to working with William for our next Dance Showcase!
