amazing team!

From the time we booked them to our wedding day, the team from Lin and Jirsa was professional and communicative. On the actual day of our wedding, Nicole, Jason, and their whole team were amazing, patient with our family, and so easy to work with. They even found this out-of-the-way for the night shot my wife wanted. 5/5 would book again.

Incredible photographers!

We knew from the very beginning of wedding planning that having Lin and Jirsa on our wedding vendor team was a must. The Lin and Jirsa team is extremely well organized and ensured that everything was addressed prior to our events. Their photographer scheduled a call with us to go over our vision to be sure that they got each and every one of the photos we wanted on the day of our events. My husband and I met in the San Francisco Bay Area and we were able to arrange Lin and Jirsa’s team to take our photos in San Francisco. We had many locations scheduled and our photographer Mike and second shooter made our engagement shoot an incredible experience. They even braved the 40mph winds near the Golden Gate Bridge! The engagement photos were absolutely incredible as we anticipated! For our wedding events, their attention to detail was exceptional. They made sure to capture all important parts of our Mehendi/Sangeet, Indian ceremony, American ceremony, and reception. On the day of our events the Lin and Jirsa team were on time and followed our timeline perfectly, even adjusting to an earlier ceremony time so that we could have more time to dance! The quality of every photo is truly phenomenal. I would choose Lin and Jirsa one thousand times over again and cannot recommend them enough. Mike, your work is truly incredible and we really appreciated how you make everyone comfortable in front of the camera. Thank you Lin and Jirsa!

Beautiful photos for a lifetime!

SPECTACULAR! I didn’t give too much thought into my wedding photography, was just looking for a portfolio I liked and fit our budget and I’m so incredibly grateful that I stumbled upon Lin & Jirsa. Now, the #1 piece of advice I give to anyone planning a wedding is INVEST IN YOUR PHOTOGRAPHER because at the end of the day all you have are the photos. I think the fact that they are a larger studio (versus 1 or 2 photographers running their own business) works in their favor as make sure their photographers can shoot in all styles or at least match you with someone who can shoot in the style you prefer. Also, they had a very fleshed out process, they had me look through their Pinterest and pin photos I liked to get a sense of my style, a comprehensive questionnaire and included an assistant (for lighting, coordination, 3rd shooter) in their package. Had to wait the full 12 weeks to get the photos back but they were SO worth it! My lead photographer Larry Sandez had such a good eye for framing, positioning, getting fun poses and shot the “light and airy” style beautifully. Thank you so so much, I love flipping through my wedding photos!!!

Fun experience

The photographers were amazing. They moved furniture to get the right shot and really paid attention to every detail. They convinced my husband to go out and take a night photo and it ended up being his favorite photo.

They were very nice and made my husband who doesn't like taking a ton of photos relaxed.

This is the photo team you need!!!

Planning a wedding is hard, stressful, and often times overwhelming. Working with Lin and Jirsa is the opposite of those adjectives. From the moment I reached out to make an inquiry to the day they arrived on site-- they were stellar. Their office team is responsive, easy to work with, and informative. Our photographers (Shivani, Lauren, and Pye) were more than we could have ever asked for. Shivani was our ULTIMATE hype girl-- her energy was perfect for my wedding party. Lauren was kind and thoughtful, she even hung back after the reception to say goodbye to my parents. Pye was professional, intentional, patient, and intuitive. Together, they were the DREAM TEAM. I've only seen sneak peeks so far, but I'm already obsessed. My family, friends, and I have been swooning over these, and we cannot wait to see the full gallery. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for being the photo team I needed. You far exceeded my expectations.

A Different Kind of Photoshoot Handled with Grace

When my husband and I were planning our wedding throughout 2019 we ended up with a different photography company that was on the vendor list of our venue.

You might think this is a COVID-related cancelled/postponed wedding, which it is not. In early 2020, my fiance (at the time) was diagnosed with cancer and passed away suddenly shortly after diagnosis, and 2 weeks before our Big Day.

Months later, after some communication issues with our original photographer regarding the cancellation, I wanted to do a bridal photoshoot to honor the wedding we would've had and remembered Lin & Jirsa from our wedding planner.

I was set up with Lin & Jirsa and the experience was 180 degrees from our original photographer. Communication was great and I felt excited and comfortable.

Come to the day of the photoshoot and Brian was very sensitive to the situation while still making it a fun shoot for me. He made me feel confident in doing this for myself all while honoring my husband and our wedding at the same time.

I recently got the pictures back and I was speechless from the start. They are amazing and I will cherish them forever.

Thank you L&J!

We had a destination wedding in California, so naturally, we did A LOT of research on weddings and vendors in the area prior to finalizing. A good photographer being one of the most important vendors, we knew we had to find one that was well reputed, took beautiful photographs and had trustworthy service.

When you search for Southern California photographers, Lin and Jirsa pop up literally everywhere - and for good reason! They have been in the business a long time, photographed countless beautiful weddings and received rave reviews from customers and other vendors in the area. Our experience with them was nothing short of that.

We worked with at least 4-5 different photographers across our 3 days of events (probably more - I can't even remember anymore!), but all of them were experienced and easy/fun to work with. Their pricing is reasonable for how many photographers they provide at each of your events, and the process to book them is also quite simple. We received regular communication from them about creating a mood board and providing more information about us as a couple, but it was also nice to know that we could could trust their quality from the get-go.

Our main photographer on the day of our wedding, Andrew, was really great! We had LARGE group photos, and we appreciated that he did his best to make sure everyone was looking in the same direction, positioned correctly, etc. Indian weddings tend to be chaotic in general, but he and the whole L&J crew with us on our wedding day managed that very well!

In hindsight, I do wish we would have had the same team of photographers for all 3 days of our events, because I think that would have allowed them to get to know as better as a couple and get EVEN better photographs. I also don't think our mood board ended up being reflected in our photos as much as I would have wanted. There are a lot of shots we wanted and didn't get - but there were also some that we got that were unexpectedly beautiful.

All in all, I would say L&J was a good choice for us. Although I would urge couples in the future to clearly communicate about certain shots they REALLY want and try to book the same photographer for all events, we are very happy with our photographs and had nothing but good experiences with everyone at the company.

Fantastic Photos!

Lin and Jirsa did a fantastic job with photography for our fusion Indian American wedding. Leading up to our day, their team arranged multiple phone meetings to discuss our vision for how we wanted our wedding and our wedding photos to look, and helped us hammer down a clear timeline of when, where, and of whom to take photos on our wedding day. On the day of, their team was well-prepared and captured everything we asked for and more. And when our wedding photos arrived we could not have been happier. The photos are absolutely beautiful. Without a doubt we would go with Lin and Jirsa again, and would highly recommend them to any of our friends or family.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
