I can't say enough good things about Nojae. After seeing a sample album at our venue, my fiance and I were shocked to learn that Forterra was within our wedding budget. Throughout the wedding planning process and the actual day of our wedding, Nojae was responsive, professional, and super enthusiastic (and he also provided me some wonderful advice for picking Maid of Honor and Mother of Bride dresses so they wouldn't clash with my wedding dress). Just a couple days after the wedding, Nojae sent a highlights album over--everyone has been floored by the quality of the pictures. The best feedback I've heard was from a friend who saw the pictures and replied, "whatever you paid him, double it!" Nojae is a pleasure to work with and so very talented. He was by far the best decision that went in to planning the wedding.

Nojae was the photographer for our wedding and his photos were phenominal!! He was very professional and energetic; couldn't have been happier with the way the photos turned out! :)

Mr. Kim is the epitome of dedication, talent, passion, and energy. My husband and I commissioned him to photograph our wedding on October 24th, 2015, and I cannot express in words how absolutely wonderful he was! His eye for design, style, class, and professionalism is exceptional. He has such unique ideas, and his level of experience really shows in his work. He made us feel very comfortable, even though we were new to posing for such high quality and important photos; the guidance and comments he made instilled such great confidence and happiness in us. He captured all the perfect moments, including ones we didn't even know we wanted beforehand, which is only a testament to his constant focus on his clients as well as his extraordinary knowledge in his field. We, without a doubt, recommend Mr. Kim to anyone with photography needs, more than this review can possibly convey. We also will be seeking his services in any future endeavors ourselves! Mr. Kim, Eric and I want to thank you so much for everything you have done for us. Our day would not have been the same at all without your infectious positive attitude and bright presence. We truly feel unbelievably lucky to have had the honor of meeting you, and of you capturing our special day. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
