EXCELLENT!!
Jose arrived earlier than expected and set up immediately, ready for our major, high level Event. His photos were awesome! All proofs were done extremely fast. We will definitely be using Jose again and would highly recommend him. If you are looking for a photographer and aren't sure where to turn rest assured with Jose and his personality, work and commitment.

Jose was fantastic. We had waited until the last minute to setup the shoot, but he was extremely accommodating, even overly accomodating, as we had to cancel and reschedule for the crack of dawn the following day. He was friendly, made the group feel comfortable and we were excited by the end of it. Seeing as the photos were a gift for my mothers birthday, he got them to us a day earlier than what was expected, seeing that her birthday was in 2 days. I already have other family members asking for his number. Great job!

Me and my fiancee had been trying to get married for a couple years but life just kept getting in the way (we have 4 kids) so we finally had a period of time with a very short window to finally tie the knot we used thumbtack and found photo genesis. Jose met all of our needs and with a very short window. He went above and beyond our expectations. I havent been to very many weddings and had no idea what to do and we were on a tight budget. Jose got to the venue early to set up and walk around to look for the best places for photos, he even helped me carry some decorations from the car and set them up. We love the photos he took especially got all of our kids smiling or doing something cute. He even sent us 3 pics the next day and the rest of them before we were told we would get them. We would highly recommend photo genesis and we will use them again in the near future!! ~Dan

If I could rate them 10 stars I would!!!! Let me 1st start by saying our original photographer canceled on us less than 2 weeks before our wedding. We reached out to Jose in a panic looking for anyone who would help....God pointed us in the direction of Jose and his wife Jenny ...I cant say enough great things about jose... even before the event he reached out to us multiple times to up a call just to introduce himself which is very professional then went out if his way to meet all of our needs. He was on time friendly with everyone...Jose was AMAZING .... before the wedding he gave us a break down on when we would receive the pictures and samples and everything he said was spot on I literally have zero complaints I will definitely be referring him if I have any one who needs a photographer thank you again!!!!

Jose was very responsive, arrived on time and shared all pictures earlier than expected. All of these for a very reasonable price. We loved the photos and couldn’t be happier with the work done by Photo Genesis!

FAQs
What types of customers have you worked with?
Portraits, head shots, corporate and event photography, product/commercial, engagements, weddings, Quinceañera, maternity
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
Tremendous patience, physical flexibility (a photographer spends a lot of time pretzeled into odd positions to capture the perfect angle), and an ability to think lucidly before dawn (can't miss that golden light) are also essential.
