Adam was recommended to me and my husband by our florist, Debbie (Floral Fields). After looking at his amazing website, we knew he was the right choice. Adam's photos were beautiful, fun, and bright (his color is wonderful!). Embrace Life Photography really stood out among the other photographers we had looked at.

After meeting with Adam, we decided we wanted to do an engagement session as well - and we couldn't have been happier with our decision! We were both a little nervous before the engagement shoot, but we ended up having a great time. Adam was super fun to work with, and he made us both feel very comfortable in front of the camera. The photos came out great and our families and friends loved them too!

Both Adam and Amber came to shoot our wedding in October, and we recently got the photos back, and they are amazing as well. It was great having them both there, and they really made the photos fun for everyone - not stressful! Adam and Amber were so detailed, and they really documented every moment of the wedding. My husband and I would definitely recommend Embrace Life Photography to anyone who wants amazing engagement or wedding photos!

I would recommend Embrace Life to any bride hands down. As soon as my fiance and I were engaged there was not even a discussion on who would take our engagement and wedding pictures. Adam and Amber shot my sisters wedding and the pictures were amazing. Not only are all of the pictures are breathtaking but both Amber and Adam helped us find the perfect place to take our engagement pictures to helping us with the day of timeline so that we were able to capture every special moment. Everyone commented on how Adam was everywhere capturing every moment of our wedding.

Adam really provides a level of photographic expertise which extends beyond a typical wedding photographer. We researched many photographers and most will just take photos. Adam actually creates artistic creations with each shot, from the colors to layout to finish. It's really amazing and impressive. We particularly loved his attention to color. As you can see from his pics, the colors are very vibrant in his work. At the wedding he was very prompt and courteous (he even organized the videographers) and we are looking forward to seeing his finished prints soon (the previews were incredible!)

There are so many wonderful things I have to say about Embrace Life that I don't know where to begin. I will start with this. I have admired Adam's photography work for years. I even told him in 2009 that one day when I get married I wanted him to be our wedding photographer. Fast forward 3 years to 2012 and my husband and I were engaged and had our initial meeting with Adam to discuss our wedding photography.

We first set up an appointment to do an engagement photo session with Adam. I highly recommend doing this because you get to spend time getting used to each other and the camera which makes things flow that much more naturally on your wedding day. We were blown away by how good our engagement photos turned out. They were incredible.

On the day of the wedding, Adam and Amber were great. They were onsite with us for most of the day and evening and were such a pleasure to be around. They truly enjoy what they do and Adam was so calm and patient organizing family members for group shots and what not. He is also fantastic with children and got the most amazing pictures of our flower girl!

We also had a photo studio set up by Embrace Life onsite at our wedding and it was so much fun to see our guests dress up for the camera and walk away with their nice 4 x 6 photo as a wedding favor.

When we saw the "sneak peek" of our photos on Facebook, we were once again blown away. Adam and Amber made everyone look like models and movie stars in natural settings. How do they do it? I don't know. It's a gift. I have received so many compliments on our wedding photos it's mind boggling. Everyone says we had a wonderful wedding photography and I couldn't agree more.

Adam, Amber, and the team at Embrace Life are very creative and truly bring a unique artistic voice into their work. Their mages are captivating and truly capture what it means to "Embrace Life."

When hiring Adam to shoot our engagement photos, I had huge expectations and he exceeded every single one of them! To say it was a fantastic experience is a huge understatement. My fiance and I are beyond impressed and pleased with our photos and we are really looking forward to Adam photographing our wedding next June!!

I am very shy in front of the camera and Adam made me feel so comfortable and confident about our engagement shoot. I am extremely grateful for his talents and his affordable pricing!

I would highly recommend Adam and Embrace Life to any bride who is looking for an extraordinary, brilliant, wonderful photographer and an unforgettable experience.

We used Embrace Life Photography for our wedding and we couldn't be happier with our photos and the entire experience of working with Adam and Amber!

Adam has an amazing eye and we got the most beautiful shots. They work so well as a team I really appreciated their eyes for detail, ensuring the veil was just so or the dress was pulled right, etc.

I highly recommend Embrace Life, and all of my friends have commented on just how their photos "pop" and capture the colors of our venue.

I had an absolutely amazing experience with Embrace Life. Adam and his wife/partner Amber are an excellent team, and I couldn't have been happier with their services, both before, during, and after the big day.

Adam & Amber were AMAZING!! If you are looking to hire a photographer for your wedding, look no further! There isn't anyone better! When we were looking to hire a photographer, picture quality was obviously a top priority (and their pictures are beautiful), but we also wanted someone we felt comfortable with and who would not take away from our special day. I can honestly say that Adam and Amber added to it! I wish I could put into words how awesome they were... I can only say that there isn't anyone else I would want at my wedding, and I'd recommend them to anyone without hesitation. I couldn't be happier with Embrace Life Photography! They are the best!

Adam shot our engagement photos in Malibu. We were so pleased with the whole process, he is extremely friendly and easy-going about the shoot and the casual experience helped calm our nerves. He is truly an artist and he found some amazing places to take photos. Our pictures turned out perfect and we couldn't have been happier with the whole experience. I would highly recommend Adam George and Embrace Life to anyone.

Adam George with Embrace Life Photography was everything we could have asked for in a wedding photographer and more! We knew many people in San Diego and were almost set on booking locally, but something told us to drive up to Calabasas and meet Adam. It was well worth the drive. His passion for photography was immediately shown through his work and his office, which was gleaming with amazing pictures. He made us feel extremely welcome and comfortable from the time we met him at his office until the time we left. We also had our two kids with us and he was more than accommodating to us and our munchkins :) That definitely meant a lot to us.

Fast forward to our wedding day:

Adam arrived early and left late on our wedding day. You knew it wasn't his first wedding shoot. He made sure he was giving us our moneys worth and getting the shots he wanted so we will remember this day forever. He looked like he was having just as much fun as we are, now thats someone that you want taking pictures on your wedding day. The beach pictures seemed like they would be a challenge with the wind that day, but Adam's expertise quickly showed us that he had everything under control and knew exactly what to do to make us feel comfortable. Our wedding pictures turned out unbelievably beautiful. We got a sneak peek just a week or two after the wedding and just received everything already a month after our wedding. We have already looked through them about ten times. We are in love!

We will forever remember Adam and how well he made us shine on our wedding day. He treated us like we were family and we had known each other for years. If anyone asks us for a wedding photographer, you better believe we will send them to Embrace Life Photography.

Adam and Amber from Embrace Life are super awesome. When we first came across their website, we instantly fell in love with their style. Everything is just so clean and bright. I don't know how Adam does it, but our engagement photos are fantastic! On our wedding day, it was a hot and sunny afternoon, they're very nice, calm and professional. They made sure that we felt comfortable. And the photos and album exceeded our expectations. We are blessed to have them. We will absolutely recommend them to our friends in the future. And you're right, Adam. We will always enjoy the photos for many many years to come. :D

Having Adam photograph our wedding and engagement shoot was the best investment that we made for the entire wedding. Adam is both personable and professional and he has a great creative gift in his ability to help build a shared vision between him and his clients. He was enthusiastic in shooting the ideas that we already had, but he also suggested many unique ideas that made for great additions to our album. He is a perfectionist in his setup of the shoot and factors in everything possible to make each picture special. He is also great with dealing with young children and getting the timing just right so that they are looking at the camera. We had so much fun with the engagement shoot, and the pre-wedding photo session was stress free and fun for the whole wedding party. Adam worked very hard throughout our wedding, to include staying well past the contracted time to ensure that he did not miss anything. Adam and Amber are very adept at being at all the right places at the right time, yet remaining inconspicuous. When we received our photos, the pride that Adam takes in his work was evident. He was thoughtful enough to re-edit a large print because of a very minor flaw, and he sent both prints out for no extra charge. We now have three large prints, numerous photos, and several albums displayed in our home and our parents' homes. Thank you so much Adam and Amber for helping make our wedding day so special and for all of your work in making the memories perfect!

We hired Adam George to do our engagement and wedding photos and we couldn't be happier. We initially chose him for three reasons: 1. He is tall. Seriously, the taller the photographer, the thinner you look. 2. He is incredibly nice. I hate having pictures taken of myself and Adam immediately made me feel as comfortable as I am ever going to feel in front of a camera. 3. His work is great. The pictures speak for themselves.

Adam took two, awkwardly shaped, chubby, pale Jews and made us look amazing. He is so meticulous and he takes his time with you. It's like having your good friend take your pictures and do an awesome job. We highly, HIGHLY recommend Embrace Life Photography.

Adam George and his team did an amazing job of capturing our perfect day. We hired him to do our wedding and reception photography, both at outdoor venues. He took pretty scenery and made it look fairytale. Our photos came out incredibly well and vibrant with color. We took plenty of the family 'pose' photos but during the reception I cannot remember seeing him around at all. He blended in with the crowd and caught the most amazing candid shots of our friends and family, most of which were enjoying slight of hand magic from a magician we had hired to work the tables. He captured our guests' reactions to the magic so perfectly. He also took beautiful posed pictures of all couples/groups at each of the tables.

Perfect photos to commemorate a perfect day for us. We were quite surprised at how many photos were taken. They were delivered to us on a flash drive in a beautiful little jewelry box tied with a bow, and he presented us with a montage video of some of the best snapshots of the night.

Truly talented photographer that I would, and have, recommended to friends. He even worked our wedding on his birthday. Thank you Adam!
