Eli is amazing!

We were lucky enough to have Eli as our photographer for our wedding day. He is incredible! Great guy, easy to talk to, very accommodating, and definitely knows what he’s doing. All of our engagement photos and wedding photos turned out absolutely beautiful, thanks to him! We got our pictures very quickly two (about a week). HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! You won’t regret it! :)

Wonderful Wedding Photographer

Eli is a wonderful wedding photographer. He is friendly and easy to work with from engagement photos to the day of our wedding photos. His great services include driving us around San Francisco to different places for our engagement photos, giving us tips on how to post pictures, fixing my wedding dress on our wedding day for perfect photos, etc. We received our wedding photos in less than a week. We recommend him as a wedding photographer. Thank you Eli!

Loved working with Eli

Eli was amazing. Not only did he make the standard formals simple easy and perfect but he was able to blend into the event and get the shots that really captured the guests and mood. Would gladly recommend and work with him again

If I could give Eli more than 5 stars I would- Eli was absolutely incredible to work with and went above and beyond at all times! He did our engagement photo session and wedding day, and our photos came out so beautifully! Eli did not put a time limit on our wedding day- he came at the beginning of us getting ready and stayed until the very end while capturing so many great shots. Not only did he capture some amazing shots but he also is very quick with getting photos back to you- we were not even back from our honeymoon and our photos were already ready to view! Eli is extremely professional, punctual, and an all around nice guy! Highly recommend Eli!

We were introduced to Eli by a family member who had nothing but positive things to say about him and his service. To say the least, he exceeded the high endorsement we had from the beginning. From the outset, Eli worked with us on what we were hoping for to document the day and delivered. Through email, phone calls, and meeting in person, Eli maintained contact with us to insure we got the type of pictures we were hoping for. On the day of, Eli arrived early and stayed late, grabbing shots from different angles near simultaneously. The deep catalogue of pictures we received were clearly shot by a professional’s eye. As our family begins, we intend to continue to work with Eli. We cannot say enough positive things about him and his service. Highly recommended.

Eli is top notch and you can't go wrong with him! My husband and I normally don't even like getting our photos taken, but we loved Eli's photos for our engagement session and wedding. His photos are so vivid and beautiful. He's also a really friendly guy who just puts you at ease. One thing that led me to want him was how flexible and adaptable he is. With all his experience and knowhow, nothing really phases him. It rained on our wedding day but it didn't throw him off at all and he produced gorgeous photos of us. Not to mention, he has amazing, fast turnaround times for the photos. Highly recommended!

My husband and I cannot say thank you enough to Eli! Eli was a recommendation from a friend and after meeting with him for the first time, we knew we had to have him photograph our wedding. His package was ideal for us. We did not want to hire videographer, so we wanted a photographer that could capture our whole day. Eli showed up at my parents' house early in the morning and stayed with us all the way until our exit at the end of the wedding.

Before the wedding, Eli took us out on an engagement photo session. This helped us all get to know each other and he made a beautiful guest book for us to use at our wedding! Neither my husband or I are great at taking pictures, but Eli kept us comfortable the whole time.

At the wedding, Eli captured every detail. He captured all of the special moments without us even realizing he was there. We are having a difficult time selecting which pictures we want to get printed because there are so many great ones. We would absolutely hire Eli again for any of our photography needs!

It has been an immense pleasure having Eli as our photographer for the wedding. He is professional, approachable, and extremely hard working. Our wedding started early and ended late, and Eli was there the whole time capturing every moment so we wouldn't miss a thing. He is also very quick to deliver your photos and backs up everything to an unimaginable degree, so your photos will be safe and sound. Highly recommended!

I cannot rave enough about how talented Eli is and what a joy it was to work with him. He far exceeded our expectations and made the day so much fun. The pictures were breathtaking and some of my favorite pictures were the ones where Eli encouraged us to be playful. Our wedding was at Wente and he knew the best "nooks and crannies" for the best pictures.

If you want to hire someone that you can entrust to take the pictures you didn't even know you wanted, you need to work with Eli!
