Popping the question is a pretty nerve racking event. I could have gone with 2 or 4 other photographers, but trust me....you won’t be disappointed if you go with David. His professionalism was second to none. He was very detail orienteted with time, place, angles to propose to capture the best lighting. He even drew me a map as I was unfamiliar with the beach where I wanted to go. He replied quickly if I had questions and his attention to detail was fantastic. David was great from start to finish! Don’t waste your time seeking out other photographers....thank you David!

Talented, Professional, & Personable
My wedding was only a week and a half ago so of course I haven't gotten my photos back yet, but given the quality of all of David's work I already know they're going to be fantastic and I couldn't wait to leave a review about how great he is.
When I first started conversing with David my husband and I were on a tight budget and, given his credentials and talent, I thought he would be out of our price range. David was eager to work with me despite this and offered several different time options that were in our price range. The day before the 3 of us met to discuss & finalize our contract, I received an unexpected financial windfall which allowed us to book David for our entire wedding day. I HIGHLY recommend that any couple booking David opt for this service as it was absolutely worth every penny to have him there the whole day.
David was incredibly professional, unobtrusive, accommodating, trustworthy, and honestly just fun to work with. He was always close by if I needed him but I didn't even realize he was there otherwise. My guests had a teriffic time with him as well.
I simply cannot recommend David highly enough. He helped to make my wedding day perfect and for that I will be eternally grateful.
Now that I have the photos, I have to update this because they are even more phenomenal than I was expecting. Thank you again David!

All-round Wonderful Experience!
David's experience really shines through in his amazing work. His flexibility and professionalism made it a pleasure to work with him. David walked the wedding and reception locations with me in advance to understand the site's environment and our photography expectations. His relaxed personality made the entire wedding party and guests at ease allowing him to capture many wonderful casual moments. David's fees were very fair in this inflated central coast market.
