We recently had the pleasure of working with Nail and Pepi for family photos. The photos turned out amazing and Nail was very helpful with everything from outfits to locations. This was our first time having professionals photos done and couldn’t imagine having a better experience.

Yanitsa, We adored getting to know your beautiful family. It was a privilege to honor your mother with a surprise shoot while the whole family was in town and celebrate generations of love reunited for a short moment in time. Thank you so much for trusting us to capture this. Please, don't be a stranger! Loved working with all of you.

They are absolutely amazing!! I flew from Des Moines IA for a shoot in San Diego and Lena and her team was wonderful. Very communicative throughout the process. Amazing work. I love the album they created. Would definitely recommend them for a shoot in San Diego.

Our experience with Have and To Hold exceeded every expectation and more! They did both photography and videography for our wedding on 7/11 and offered flexible packages and prices depending on our needs. The whole experience was so well catered to us. They truly made us feel like we were their #1 priority and communicated very well in the months leeding up the wedding and after. The quality of our photos and videos were phenominal and were delivered in a very timely manner. We are so lucky to have found such great people to work with and capture all the special moments of our amazing day that we'll get to relive FOREVER! Thank you so much for your whole-hearted, genuine committment to capturing our love story so beautifully. We will be using them for all of our photography needs as our family grows.

Details: Wedding • 200 - 300 guests • Indoors • Flash drive • Digital or online download
