Wedding Photography in Salinas

We had the pleasure of having Candor Studios shoot our wedding on August 10, 2013. Ji is fun, talented, professional, and a true artist. He accommodated all of our requests and went above and beyond. Ji flew in from out of town to shoot our wedding. Although he was not familiar with the city (Edmonton, AB), he was more than happy to take a couple hours the day before to scope out potential photo shoot locations I had in mind. He gave useful feedback and had great ideas to help me narrow down which were the best locations. Ji also came to our rehearsal the night before the wedding and had those photos edited and posted that evening!! Talk about fast turn around! On the day of the wedding Ji included all the shots I had requested and more. He made us feel comfortable and helped the day run smoothly and on schedule. After the ceremony we headed to the Royal Museum. The site was packed with at least 4 other wedding parties. When we first arrived all of the usual spots were taken. Ji has an artistic eye and knows what will make for a great photo. He spotted a secluded little rooftop area which I had never noticed before. We ended up getting some of my favourite shots here - with the clear blue sky and river valley as the backdrop! Our wedding party had a blast with Ji that afternoon and got a lot of fun, unique shots. We received our photos pretty quick from Candor Studios and we were blown away. They were incredible! We have received numerous compliments on our wedding photos! Our wedding day went by so fast, a lot of it is a blur now. I'm so glad I have these amazing photos that I will cherish forever! I highly recommend Candor Studios! Thank you Ji!

Drew is amazing, you won't regret choosing him as your photographer! We did an engagement photo session with Drew and the experience was totally comfortable and prepared us for taking photos on wedding day. We got to get used to some of the different poses and directions, and let me tell you, the pictures came out absolutely dreamy and I totally recommend an engagement session! Our wedding, which was just this June, was such a beautiful day for us and the wedding photos Drew just delivered to us captured just that! If you happen to be on Instagram, give Drew a follow. It was really fun seeing the reels he made of our sessions and getting to share those with family and friends since I'm no good at that kind of thing! Such a fun bonus! Drew has a great photo aesthetic and that's what really sets him apart from other photographers and we really look forward to continue working with Drew to capture our family photos and future events.

I love it, I love them, I love her ❤️

Heather is not only an incredibly gifted photographer and a seasoned pro – she is also a kind, thoughtful and empathetic person who is truly a joy to be around. From the beginning, she took the time to get to know us as a couple and understand our vision. Heather invested time in calls with us, sent us a thorough questionnaire and elopement guide, thoughtful location choices, and carefully reviewed our Pinterest board, genuinely showing curiosity and care about what mattered most to us throughout the entire process. She has a rare ability to zoom out and understand the overall vibe we wanted to create, while also zooming in to capture subtle moments and meaningful details. Heather is skilled and professional – she knows how to maximize every moment and get the best shots quickly to make the most of such a special day, and she does it in such a human way; we never felt rushed, we just knew we were getting a ton of great shots. And Heather didn’t just deliver the shots we asked for - she gave us so many gorgeous, unexpected moments and angles that we’ll treasure forever. Heather’s warmth and positivity were contagious, and she helped us stay grounded and joyful throughout the entire day. Having her by our side truly elevated the experience. She and her fiancé Mike are a wonderful duo – so comfortable to be around, talented and clearly passionate about what they do. We feel endlessly grateful to have had Heather and Mike with us for such an intimate and important day. Seeking Venture Photo has our highest recommendation!

Shaun is fantastic! We are beyond happy with Shaun’s services, professionalism, and photos! I would recommend him to everyone. I already do with family and friends. Shaun has been great to communicate with and he was really helpful with my bride anxiety around planning and timing. He brought an assistant who was attentive to details and helped with my dress when she didn’t have to. I can’t say enough about how pleased we are that Shaun was a part of our special day.
