Wonderful experience with Toan!

Toan was absolutely wonderful to work with! He was punctual, super professional, and flexible with last minute changes. He was really fun and relaxed, making it comfortable to take photos with him. We are not models, and he was fantastic about giving direction and posing tips. After the ceremony, our families loved taking photos with him too!

We loved our photos, which he turned around very quickly. It was an amazing experience, and we can't recommend him enough!

Amazing Experience!!

Toan and his team member were absolutely amazing to work with on our wedding day! They captured every moment so beautifully and had the best recommendations for poses and photo locations. They made my husband and I feel so comfortable in front of the camera, and the photos turned out even better than we could have imagined — we honestly didn’t realize how great we looked until we saw them! The pictures completely blew us away, and that’s before any touch-ups.

Toan was incredibly communicative and easy to work with throughout the entire day and prior, making the whole experience seamless and enjoyable. We’re beyond thrilled with the final results and can’t recommend Toan and his team enough to anyone looking for a photographer to capture their special day!

Beautiful photography and great service

Toan was a fantastic photographer! Everything was perfect from great communication leading up to our celebration to the beautiful variety of posed and candid photos shared afterwards. He captured lovely intimate moments amongst the guests too which were so nice to see after the fact, little things we would have missed in the whirlwind of it all.

His editing style is really nice, he knows how to work with light in just the right way to capture an ethereal vibe without being too washed out.

He was also incredibly friendly and professional, really putting us at ease. My partner is definitely shy in front of the camera and Toan was able to get some awesome shots of him where he didn't feel stiff or uncomfortable.

The photos were delivered promptly and he's quite affordable for the excellent work he offers. I highly recommend him for your special day!

A Heartfelt Thank You

Toan has truly been ONE OF THE BEST photographers I’ve worked with 🙌🏽. He was our engagement & wedding photographer & I can’t say enough about how amazing the entire experience was.

From the very start, Toan made us feel comfortable during our engagement photoshoot, even though my husband & I aren’t the types to take professional photos. He had us laughing the entire time & took the time to get to know our love story. It felt like we’d known him forever, even though we met him for the first time in San Francisco.

On our wedding day, Toan & Hai made everything incredible. Toan went above & beyond to ensure I wasn’t stressed & his calming presence was exactly what we needed.

He took the time to understand our vision for the day. He was hands-on in helping us prepare, keeping us on track with our timeline while still capturing every beautiful moment. You could definitely feel Toan’s passion for photography & his attention to detail is truly exceptional. He captures every little moment & we’re blown away by how beautifully everything was documented & his ability to capture even the tiniest of things that meant so much to us.

My husband & I are so grateful for the opportunity to work with Toan & Hai. Not only were Toan & Hai incredibly talented but they made the whole process so fun. They had our entire entourage laughing & enjoying the day. It felt like we were spending time with old friends. The photos are absolutely gorgeous, candid, intimate & full of life. We can’t thank them enough for capturing such an important day in such a beautiful way.

If you’re looking for a photographer who is not only skilled but genuinely cares about you & your story, look no further than Toanven Photography. We are so thankful for their hard work & for the stunning photos we’ll cherish forever.

I highly recommend Toanven Photography. It is absolutely worth the investment! 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽

Amazing job capturing our special day!

Highly highly recommend hiring Toanven Photography!!!

Toan and Hai shot our wedding in San Francisco in October 2024 and we couldn't be happier with the experience and the resulting photos. Not only were we impressed by the results, but it was truly a joy to work with them. It was a long (and record breaking hot) day in the City, but you wouldn't know it from the calm and collected approach of the team and the plan for the photos went smooth. We seemed to endlessly be behind schedule, but Toan just ran with it and made sure we got the the right shots from the ceremony in the park, to the procession, to the reception.

If you are looking for a wedding photographer, absolutely recommend choosing Toan and his team!

Toan is the best!

My husband and I had the pleasure of working with Toan and his team of experts for our engagement (January 2024) and wedding day (August 2024). My husband and I both are very awkward when it comes to taking photos, but Toan helped with our positioning and tweaked all the nuances to make our photos look stunning. It's amazing how much detail he puts into his work. Whenever I had questions or concerns, he would quickly respond to my emails and set up phone meetings. His effective communication reassured me that everything would be okay for my engagement photoshoot and wedding day. I loved that he would include his recommendations because my husband and I had no clue on where to take photos, how many outfits, what to expect, etc.

On the actual wedding day, we were running behind on schedule due to late guest arrival but he still handled everything with grace and a calm attitude. He didn't add pressure on us and just continued to make adjustments to the schedule to make sure everything essential for us was included. My husband and I were so grateful to him and his team as they exceeded our expectations.

Before we knew it, he was ready to send us our photos. It took us a while to go through all of 2,000+ pictures but it was fun to relive those moments! Our pictures turned our gorgeous! Our friends and family loved them too. We kept receiving compliments, which made us happy because our families can be quite cynical. Overall, I would highly recommend Toan and his team for all of your engagement/wedding photography needs. You won't regret it!

The BEST Photographer!!

If you need an amazing photographer, Toan is you man! Me and my wife had Toan do our engagement photo session out in SF and on that day, he got a flat tire driving out there. He was quick to contact us to let us know he would be delayed and he was able to get his tire fixed and still make it to our session (only about 20 min late)! He then did our wedding day photos and he and his team are great! Me and my wife are not very natural in front of the camera...especially with posing. Toan was so good with giving instructions but also making it fun so we do not feel too awkward.

Toan was also so good with communication and answering all of our questions leading up to our wedding day. And one of the best parts about Toan is that he gives you his estimated timelines for turnaround and he is always ahead of schedule! His turnaround time is amazingly fast so you can relive your special day all over again!

Toan is also very respectful. When he addressed our family members at the wedding for photos, he was super polite and very good at giving instructions to everyone in the pictures.

I would highly recommend Toan and his team for any of your photo sessions that you would like to have. Well worth it! Thanks Toan for your amazing photos and making us all look great!

Go with Toan!!

Toan and his team were fantastic!! Highly recommend for weddings and for engagement shoots! Some notes:

1 Amazing photography: Toan’s photography style and quality speak for itself. We looked through a number of photographers and it was clear Toan was exceptional in ability. He also has great experience at many venues in the region.

2 Kind and respectful: With photographers at weddings, we have learned it is important to have someone who cares deeply about the work they are doing - but also about you as a person/ couple. Toan was extremely kind, funny, and energetic - talking with us and our families in a way that made everyone feel comfortable.

3 Turnaround time: Toan is also excellent in terms of turnaround time, as we saw from our engagement photo shoot. He is extremely efficient and that is great when you are looking forward to seeing photos.

HIGHLY recommend again!

Toan went above and beyond from start to finish to ensure everything from our wedding portraits to the wedding reception dinner was perfectly captured!

To begin, Toan set aside time to discuss our vision and address any questions we had. This attention to detail made him stand out among other photographers.

On the day of the events, Toan was highly professional and helpful throughout our wedding portraits, tea ceremony, and reception, capturing the heartfelt and exciting moments without skipping a beat. He even ensured our dog paid attention and looked at the camera in every shot. The final product was absolutely fantastic!

Overall, I strongly recommend Toan to anyone looking for a wedding photographer. Toan and his team are exceptionally talented, caring individuals who are dedicated to making the experience unforgettable.
