Reviews of Loic Nicolas Photography

My husband and I wanted someone familiar with SF City Hall Weddings and we could not have made a better choice! Loic was super responsive and professional. He is constantly taking pictures and therefore we had so many great shots! Everyone who sees our pictures raves about what a great job our photographer did! And while most people I know wait months for their pictures, we had ours in about a week!

Loic shot our engagement photo and city hall wedding which was the same day. He also shot our wedding reception 8 months later. Loic was very easy to work with and I loved how organized he was. He set up meetings a few weeks before each event to get to know us better and his questionnaire made the day of shooting move seamlessly. During the event he was like a ninja. I didn't even notice him taking half of the pictures that he showed us. He also turns the pictures around very quickly. He was truly a pleasure to work with and was a vendor that was on top of everything

My wife and I booked Loic for our destination wedding and also chose to do an engagement photo session as well. He was very easy to work with remotely and responded to emails/calls quickly. We were very happy that we chose to do our engagement photos with him as they turned out wonderful and he made the process fun and easy.

Loic does a very good job at making you feel comfortable in front of the camera and on the big day he manages the chaos very well. All of our pictures came out stunning and he really captured the feeling of the entire day. We received the photos very quickly following the wedding and all of our friends and family still rave about the quality of the pictures. Very highly recommend his services you can't go wrong!

Loic shot our city hall wedding in early June. We would highly recommend him to other couples. He has clear experience and expertise in shooting city hall locations. He took advantage of the best light and festive aspects of the process to capture beautiful, natural-looking photos. We loved his non-obtrusive style.

Post-ceremony, Loic took us to multiple venues and used different cameras. We were very impressed as this was above-and-beyond what we had agreed to in our contract. Overall, Loic was gracious, professional and heightened the feeling of it being a special day. We could not have made a better decision with respect to a photographer - Loic made our wedding day feel absolutely seamless and his photos are the most beautiful reminders of it. We couldn't have asked for better!

Loic and Mischa were photographers at my wedding in 2009. I still enjoy looking at my wedding photos and have several hanging in our home. The service Loic provided was top notch. I was a nervous bride with many questions and Loic was very responsive both through email and over the phone.

On my wedding day both MIscha and Loic floated around unseen. They were able to catch the special moments in a candid unposed way (which was exactly what I wanted). I recommend Loic to anyone who asks for a photographer. He was professional, and made all my guests feel at ease, and gave us beautiful images for us to remember our special day forever.

I'm sure his packages I have changed, but I am a firm believer in "you get what you pay for". When it comes to preserving those feelings you had on your wedding day I felt Loic was exceptional value.

Loic provided beautiful photos for our wedding. The best review I can give came from a guest at the wedding who said he and his second shooter were totally forgettable. It was like they were not even there.

He is a professional, I felt leaving artistic direction up to him is the best way to get memorable photos.

They never got in the way of our guests' view of the ceremony and were still able to capture momentous photos that capture the various emotions throughout the day.

The photos were delivered almost a month later and looked gorgeous.

My husband and I really enjoyed working with Loic for our engagement shoot and at our wedding. Loic is an incredibly talented photographer, and we fell in love with his work when we first saw his website. When we met him in person, we were very happy to discover that he also has a great sense of humor, which helped us relax and take more natural looking photos. We were thrilled to see the beautiful photos from both our engagement photo shoot and from our wedding. Loic is truly a talented photographer. We hope to work with him again in the future... perhaps a baby photo session a few years down the road?

Loic was fantastic. Beautiful pictures. Beautiful editing. Loved his organization/pre-wedding prep that enabled those day of formal pictures to go quickly. So responsive on email and phone. A pleasure to work with. We LOVE his photos. Couldn't have asked for a better photographer!

used Loic for my wedding in June. Let's just say I was smart to book Loic almost a year and a half in advance. My husband and I made the right choice from the beginning.
As a person who works really crazy long hours battling fire drills and trying to juggle wedding planning headaches, Loic was god send. I appreciated the time that Loic took to meet with us during the initial consultation. He tried to get a sense of our personalities and our expectations. Additonally, he provided many good ideas and referrals/recommendations in terms of competent and creative vendors. We actually booked some of the vendors he recommended and they were awesome.
With regard to the process, Loic was pretty hands off during the wedding planning process until it was time to kick it into high gear. Neither my husband nor I are procrastinators and we appreciated Loic's proactiveness in reaching out to us and telling us--it's almost the big day...let's start planning. We did not need to chase him, unlike some unfortunate vendors we used (cake and rabbi-we should have asked Loic for advice). We discussed the important and posed shots we wanted and encouraged him to use his talent without restrictions. We were very very impressed as he was able to capture our (and our guests') personalities without us knowing it. He is not only good with posed and scenary shots, his headshots are amazing, delicate, and personal. As many reviewers would agree, you would have never known he was there as he works quite stealthly. I have also told a friend about him since she recently got engaged and I will definitely use him for future family portraits and professional headshots for work.
One last thing which was really important to my husband and I. Loic was very easy to click with and he made us feel very comfortable. You may think that's not pertinent, but you will find out the smallest things will annoy you during wedding planning if your vendor does not have th capability to think on his/her feet, is proactive and thinks like you. In summary, we think he has a natural talent in photography, but also uses his business sense to connect with his clients. If there were 10 stars, I would use that.

Loic did our engagement (http://blog.loicphoto.com/2009/03/kim-robbys-engagement-session.html) and wedding

The amazing work pictured here and his website, speaks for itself. Allow me to list some unexpected benefits of working with Mr. Nicolas.

1. He's kind of a badass. We looked back at our photos and decided he must be a ninja, because he was everywhere, at all times.
2. He made the engagement session really fun. Despite my numerous protests, i left the shoot saying, "damn, i could do that again".
3. He's french AND all kinds of nice to look at. Believe me, your bridesmaids will be way more interested in smiling when an adorable frenchman is cracking jokes at them.
4. He is really flexible and tech saavy. We did everything via email and he accommodated our crazy schedules.

Loic is everything you want. Do it.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
