As a professional photographer, I've shot everything from United Airlines flights and events to getting hired by the Obama Foundation to be President Obama's personal photographer, featured on his Instagram account and in People Magazine online. I am also the South Bay photographer for the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative.
I honed my skills over the past two decades traveling to over 25 countries with my camera, shooting in a vast variety of settings, from street photography in India to monasteries in China and events all over Europe and the US.
My specialty is photography that captures candid, organic moments – the kinds of photos that bring back powerful memories for years to come. I’m deeply passionate about stories and emotions, and love helping folks remember special moments in their lives with as much color, depth, and feeling as possible.
Whether you're getting married or looking for coverage of a corporate event, I'd be delighted to provide you with the kinds of photos that will help you remember the magic of your special event for years to come. Feel free to get in touch to discuss your needs, and let's have some fun!

My wife and I recently had the pleasure of working with David Poznic for a photo shoot, and I must say, the entire experience was absolutely fantastic! From start to finish, David showcased exceptional talent and delivered exquisite results that exceeded all my expectations. What's more, his unparalleled efficiency in delivering a fully edited album on the same day of the photoshoot left us in awe.
Throughout the shoot, David displayed a remarkable ability to create a comfortable and relaxed atmosphere. His friendly and professional demeanor instantly made us feel like we were collaborating with a close friend rather than a hired professional. This positive energy translated into the final images, as he truly captured the essence of the moment and brought out the best of us.
Not only did David possess an impeccable eye for detail and composition, but his creativity and innovative ideas were truly inspiring. He had a knack for finding unique angles and perspectives, resulting in a diverse range of shots that perfectly showcased our personality and style. His ability to adapt to different lighting conditions and environments was exceptional, ensuring that every shot was beautifully lit and visually stunning.
After the shoot, we eagerly anticipated the post-work results, and to my surprise, David delivered a fully edited album on the same day! His efficiency and dedication to his craft were truly remarkable. The fact that he was able to produce such high-quality edits in such a short amount of time is a testament to his skill and professionalism.
The editing and retouching process demonstrated David's technical expertise and artistic vision. He skillfully enhanced the images while maintaining a natural and authentic feel. The attention to detail was remarkable, and every image was a work of art in itself.
We truly appreciate David's professionalism, dedication, and commitment to delivering exceptional quality. He went above and beyond to ensure that we were satisfied with the final product, taking the time to understand our vision and incorporating it seamlessly into his work.
Overall, I cannot recommend David Poznic highly enough. His talent, passion, and genuine love for his craft shine through in every aspect of his work. If you're looking for a photographer who will capture the essence of the moment and deliver stunning results with unparalleled efficiency, look no further. David Poznic is an absolute gem, and we are grateful for the incredible experience, breathtaking images, and the astonishingly quick delivery of the fully edited album.
Thank you, David Poznic, for your outstanding work. You have truly exceeded all expectations, and we look forward to working with you again in the future!

David Poznic Photography's reply
Thank you Adrian for these kind words. It was indeed such a pleasure to get to photograph you and your beautiful family! I really enjoyed getting to spend time with the three of you, and am just thrilled that you enjoyed the photos so much. I still regularly look back at photos of my own family from when our little one was that age, and I hope these photos offer you that same opportunity as the years pass - to remember a little more viscerally some of the smaller details of this precious chapter in your family's life. All the very best from my family to yours!

Wow just wow, I am a pilot and needed a last minute help with spontaneous proposal and David went above and beyond. helped coordinate with venue, make a reservation, got staff and hotel involved. Not to mention the best photos I've ever had. he knew the right lighting, angles. background and made it a fun and exciting experience and atmosphere. caught some great candid shots and guided shots. he is definitely highly recommended and will hopefully be in my next events.

David is an absolute treat to work with. As a professional wedding photographer myself I thought it was going to be insanely challenging to find someone to photograph my wedding. Thankfully that couldn't have been farther from the case with David. He has an amazing work ethic, is punctual with amazing communication. He was so easy going, nailed all the shots and had a ton of fun himself and was even more fun to be around!
After the wedding he sent us some teaser photos the very next day, this is so above and beyond in the industry. On top of that no more than a few days later (I know he had a busy weekend of work) he delivered the full edit from our entire wedding day!
I couldn't recommend him more highly, he truly is a wonderful person and an amazing photographer!

David photographed our daughter’s first birthday party. Right from the beginning he was responsive, friendly, and worked diligently to capture amazing photos that we’ll treasure. He delivered the edited photos quickly and we are very happy with his work. We hope to work with him again.
