As my recently sprouted gray hairs can attest, planning a wedding can be incredibly, incredibly stressful. I never anticipated being THAT bride. You know, the one with the wedding planner, bridal magazines and season tickets to every bridal show in town.

While I've been excited, my experiences with most wedding vendors have been mediocre at best. After almost a year of planning, I firmly believe that many vendors don't put in the extra service oomph into what they do because being in the wedding business is a no-brainer, slam dunk sale. Sadly, few vendors were as enthusiastic as we were about our wedding. That is, until we met Nathan.

Of all our vendors, choosing to work with Nathan for our complex, trip-filled engagement session and wedding was the best decision we made. From the very first returned call (within 2 hours), I noticed that Nathan was going to be very different. He was upbeat, friendly and very enthusiastic. He suggested fresh ideas we hadn't heard any other photograph make (i.e. being Yelp-obsessed foodies, why not do an engagement session at all your favorite restaurants? Right?!?) and followed up quickly.

We could tell from his portfolio that he had a really good eye for light, color and composition. While he is very talented, what really sold us was his STELLAR customer service. I personally interviewed and vetted over a dozen photographers in both SF and LA and Nathan was the best. I'm not exaggerating when I say that his patience, enthusiasm and attention to detail has not wavered 6 months in and 100+ emails later. Being new to the wedding thing, I had a ton of questions and he answered every one. Then he did it again, again and again. I honestly don't know how he does it with all the clients he's booking.

I recently told my fiance, that I want whatever Nathan is on because he's been the only vendor who has been on a steady valium drip since this whole thing started. In this journey that is wedding planning, Nathan has been a big, bright beam of light and comfort to a very frazzled couple. We just got the photos from our e-session in SF and loved our photos so much and can't wait until he meets us in Cabo San Lucas for our wedding!!!

Nathan, and his posse of fellow photographers, Jeremy Chou and Erich Chen, did an AWESOME job capturing our 3-day wedding in Cabo. Most of the time, we forgot they were working because they fit in so well with our group of friends and family.

It's a great sign when your photographer shows up in some unforgettable photos having as good a time as you are. Through it all, partying at Cabo Wabo, rehearsal, rehearsal dinner, wedding day, and his fare share of shots and margaritas, Nathan caught it all and we couldn't be happier with the results. Thanks Nathan!
