“We wish we could give "I Do" Photography and Nathan (our photographer) 10 stars! They worked our wedding at Greystone Mansion in Beverly Hills and did an absolutely incredible job (more details below). Sarah, our go-to contact person from day one, went way above and beyond in being accessible for questions, taking note of our vision and making great suggestions. In short, she was a total delight to work with, as was the case with Nathan. Prior to the wedding, Nathan took time out of his busy life to get on a video call with Corey and I to discuss our timeline, vision and final details. The questionnaire Sarah provided before that was also extremely helpful in conveying our vision, and it was evident Nathan had reviewed those responses in detail before our call. Nathan and The "I Do" Photography team listened attentively and noted all of our requests and gave great suggestions, but always made it clear it was up to us and they wanted to execute whatever was most important to us. We left our meeting with Nathan feeling so at ease about the people who would capture our day! The craziest part is Nathan was even more spectacular on the wedding day itself than we could have ever expected and brought the most incredible energy and enthusiasm for SEVEN hours straight. Nathan worked tirelessly throughout the evening, and he and the "I Do" team's commitment to excellence was evident in every interaction with them in the lead-up and every moment throughout the wedding. We are so in love with our wedding photos and cannot get over the talent and quality of Nathan and the editing team. Corey and I hope many more couples get to experience what we did throughout the process and couldn't be more thankful for the role that Nathan and the broader "I Do" team (Sarah, Anna and Lydia) played!”

As a female photographer, I work especially well with couples who aren't used to being in front of a camera. I'm good at guiding you through poses with clear, natural direction, and you can see how I work with couples on my social media reels. Whether you're planning an intimate gathering or a larger celebration, I bring the same care to every wedding I shoot.

“We flew to LA for this shoot and Jacinda was incredible! This was basically our second honeymoon since we already had our wedding, and she captured us so naturally. We absolutely loved her style and her personality, she made the whole experience feel easy and fun. She also recommended a driver and a makeup artist since we didn't know anyone in the area, and it ended up being an all female team, all three of them were amazing!!! The makeup artist totally got my vibe, glam but classic, and the driver made everything stress free. For such a reasonable price, we got a full day of exploring LA and ended up with photos we genuinely love. Couldn't have asked for a better team!”

My love for photography began as young as 12 but the passion came as soon as I welcomed my first son, Liam. Motherhood is a busy busy life and the camera keeps all the memories fresh. I love, love. Nothing makes me smile bigger than a surprise engagement, or the welcoming of a new baby. I really try to get to know my clients and visualize their lives before I even attempt to capture their story - because that story is what MAKES the shot!

“I highly recommend Ashley as your photographer. I first came across her work from another friends wedding, and I specifically loved her editing/the way she captured light in her photos! The photos we received did not disappoint. I've been struggling to narrow down which ones I want to print and frame in our home. I loved the app we received within a couple days that had a bunch of previews--more than enough options to choose from for an initial Instagram post! Ashley was so sweet to work with, and made sure to capture everything we discussed in our calls leading up to the big day. It was so fun going back through all the photos after and seeing how many group/family photos she was able to capture of our guests as well. I feel like the day was documented so well and we kept getting compliments from our guests about how great Ashley was. During our guest table photos she was so efficient, but also checked the photos to make sure no one was blinking etc. before moving on to the next grouping!”

“WOW!! Steven Nguyen Photography was one of the BEST INVESTMENT for out wedding. We're so glad we chose Steven and his team, they delivered everything on time and it was not hard to immediately say "YES" after our consultation call. Steven is simply an honest & nice guy, which was what stood out most during our zoom call. Besides his work, my husband and I felt we connected well with him and the trust was evident, since day one. Steven was always responsive and courteous in all of our communication. I reserved my date with Steven about a year in advance to ensure that he locks in that date with us before someone else does (reserving a GOOD wedding photographer in Southern California can be competitive). I love how all of our interaction/communication were more than just a transaction. My husband and I love working with Steven and we felt like we could totally hangout with him and his wife (Connie). We didn't meet Connie until our wedding day and let me tell y'all...she is a whole different vibe (in a good way). I'm so glad she accompanied Steven, she was fun to be around, so down to earth, and awesome to be around. She brings this burst of energy and fun to the wedding team. Steven's artistic work made it look like it was a million dollar wedding (I don't know how, but he did it). We literally couldn't stop smiling and giggling at all the candid moments, he captured it all. With a wedding part size of 250....it's hard to keep track of who showed up that day, but he got everyone. To simply summarize, we are IN LOVE with our photos. Steven's work evokes a sense of elegance, filled with candid emotions that tell a story between two people in the most honest and organic way. Reserve your special day with Steven to ensure that your gallery will be delivered beyond your expectations.”

I photograph the stories of couples who love big adventures and little details; couples who know the value of embracing old traditions and the thrill of creating their own; couples who believe that their wedding is about more than just a day of celebration, but a lifetime of love. Real love is a big deal. And for the couples that I have the joy of working with, so is their wedding photography. At the end of your big day, other than that new lifelong partner in crime you’ve hitched yourself to, your photos are all that you get to take with you.

I’m Renz, the owner of Seorak Studios. I began capturing moments over 10 years ago with a passion for photography, and storytelling. Today, my business partner and I have rebranded to Seorak Studios, a photo and video company that provides high quality, on-location coverage for engagements and weddings. From initial brainstorm and concept development to final delivery, we take a thoughtful, hands-on approach to every project by working closely with all of our clients. Our goal is to capture your special day and document moments that feel authentic, artful, and unforgettable.

“Me and my now husband had a great full day engagement session with Seorak Studios and specifically Renz Gonzaga at Disneyland and DCA! We were able to work together on the ideal shots and overall inspiration beforehand and the day of Renz got straight to it, making our dream Disney photoshoot come true! The photos looked great on both large prints and digitally, which was important for us since we wanted to hang them around our home. He made us feel comfortable and gave cues to get the best poses. We definitely recommend bringing your fun shoot ideas to Renz and Seorak Studios, he’s a pro at making the moments come to life on camera!”

I have always loved story-telling. I loved writing stories as a kid (I even tried to get a book published at age 12) and I love writing my own D&D campaigns now. Through storytelling, I see the paths laid ahead for our heroes, and beautiful adventures that need to be documented. Through storytelling, I started to see the pictures. And from these pictures, I began to photograph. I am crazy passionate about your day. I want to help you capture those moments. I want you to have the most amazing time, and the happiest memories. I want you to have photos so good that you can’t wait to show it off to the people you know, and even those you don’t.

“I can’t recommend Cassy V enough! We loved working with her for our wedding. She was so professional and kind to work with. She helped scout our couples photo shoot ahead of time so we didn’t have to do it ourselves, which is above and beyond. Her team and her did an amazing job during our chaotic tea ceremony and reception! We had 300 guests and they managed to capture the best moments us!”

Hi, I'm Rehan Qadri!Welcome to my portfolio page. I am Los Angeles based commercial photographer for Weddings, Engagements, Live Events, Portraiture, Architecture, Automotive, & Aerial Drone Images. Scroll

“Expressions Productions was an absolute delight to work with for our wedding. Their communication style was excellent - they were never intrusive and were incredibly thoughtful about how we wanted to interact with our vendors. The quality of their work and the value they provided was worth every penny, as the results were unbelievable. They showed up ahead of time, prepped everything, and even assigned an assistant to help guide our guests for pictures with us. They made the entire photography process easy and smooth, allowing us to simply enjoy our special day. We couldn't have asked for a better wedding photography experience.”
