Eric was beyond amazing in every aspect of the photo shoot day. He took care of every single detail, all we had to do was show up! We also want to note how high-end Eric's taste is in color theory, composition, post-processing, and just overall quality. It felt like these were photographs that could be in a magazine, and some made us tear up with joy! -

Eric was an AMAZING photographer, we are in love with all our photos! He was very good at getting everyone engaged but also being off in the background unnoticed for great candid shots. Would 10/10 recommend! -

Amazing and fun photographer!
Eric was so great, we absolutely loved our wedding photos! He caught us in moments I didn't event think to have photographed and I'm so happy to have those memories now. Our wedding was outdoors with lots of direct sun and he made sure we found the best lighting spots for all our pictures. I would recommend Eric to all brides:) -

I find it difficult to articulate the difference between photographers and what sets them apart. But essentially our experience was this: After looking at countless portfolios, we decided undoubtedly on Eric Doolin. His photographs really stood out from the pack, they popped. They had the ultra clean professional and artistic quality we were looking for. After already booking Eric based strictly on his portfolio we later learned that in addition to having over a decade of experience photographing weddings, he holds a bachelor's degree in photography from the Brooks Institute. The combination of Eric's invaluable experience, formal schooling, and natural talent is what sets him above. Eric has a clear vision; and most importantly the ability to bring it to life through his confident yet comfortable coaching and staging. We're truly grateful to have had Eric photograph our wedding and highly recommend him for any of your photography needs. -

Engagement and wedding photography is one of the most stressful moments in wedding planning. My husband and I had under a year from choosing our venue to plan everything. Photography was the most important element for our event. With that being said, having a tight timeline took the stress to a different level. From the moment Eric reached out to us to plan our engagement photography, we just clicked so well. Even through text he put me at ease and made our special moments magical. The attention to detail was beyond what I expected. We discussed locations, hobbies we might like to include in the pictures, even down to the color of clothing we would be wearing. The day of our engagement photos, Eric very kindly brought us a bottle of champagne to toast at the end of the shoot. When our wedding date was approaching, I heard from Eric very consistently just to ensure our times and expectations were aligned. Perhaps the most wonderful moment Eric gave us was when I asked if he could ensure my husband and I would have a private moment together right after our ceremony before going for pictures and the reception. This couple of minutes were so precious to us. I could write whole detailed essay about how wonderful our entire experience was. But, to keep it short and sweet, Eric is a lifetime photographer. We hope to continue having him take photos as our life progresses and grows. -

Eric was very personable and did a great job. We knew he was there taking photos of the event but he was never in the way. He got through the family photos quickly, did his traditional shots and captured so many candid photos during the reception. We'd highly recommend him for anyone needing a photographer for their upcoming event. -

Eric was the perfect choice for our wedding day! He scouted out the locations beforehand to make sure we had the perfect shots. He was cheerful and upbeat, meshed well with our large group of friends and family, and was overall just a gem to work with. He came up with some creative and gorgeous shots - we loved how they turned out. We would recommend him to anyone! -

Lily C. Sent on 12/26/2022One of the best choices we made for our wedding!
Eric photographed our friends' wedding the year prior, so my husband and I got a small look into his energy and style. When it came to choosing for our own wedding, he was a clear winner! Eric shot our engagement photos first. I was so nervous, but after the session, I felt so much relief knowing that we had booked the perfect person. Not only are his photos gorgeous, he is also someone you will really enjoy having around on your big day. I sometimes feel overwhelmed and a little insecure taking photos, but Eric made everyone so comfortable, it felt like we just had an another friend joining us. He perfectly captured the fun and joy that we felt during our wedding, and I know we will cherish these memories forever. Also, a special shoutout to his assistant that day, Felly, who brought so much light and love to the party and made me feel like a rock star. We highly recommend booking Eric!! -

Amazing!! You won’t regret hiring.
I found Eric at the OC Wedding expo and fell in love with his work. He was very patient with me in regards to scheduling the engagement photo session. I had multiple family emergencies at the time.
He and his assistant took beautiful photos and got down on the dance floor. They went above and beyond. The assistant was assisting my mother and dance teacher pin the tail up.
The most important detail was finding out that he moved to Oregon and had to fly out to the engagement session/wedding in California. He could have canceled on me and I really do appreciate that he didn’t. I would highly recommend him and his team. -

Nicole R. Sent on 12/20/2021Professional, adaptable, responsive, and the pictures are amazing!
We had high expectation from Eric, and he far exceeded them. He was incredibly professional and responsive, and even set up a Zoom with us for before the wedding to chat about what we were looking for. He guided us through the picture-taking process (we were newbies!) and made it easy and comfortable for us. And most importantly-- the pictures turned out absolutely amazing!! We couldn't be happier with them, or with our experience with Eric. I would choose him again 1,000 times! -

If you are looking for a wedding photographer, look no further! Eric is thoughtful, prompt, detail oriented, and SOOO talented. I booked Eric nearly 2 years before our wedding. It was February 2020 and our wedding was in September 2021. A month after booking him Covid hit. Luckily, we did not have to move our wedding but I was nervous about it the entire time. Eric constantly reassured me and would check in with me throughout the planning process. He was so kind and I really appreciated his support. We finally met Eric to do our engagement photos about a year out of our wedding. The photos were absolutely amazing and he was such a joy to work with I couldn’t wait for the big day. Finally the wedding day came and Eric was AMAZING. He worked fast, gave great direction and made me feel at ease the entire time. He remembered all the shots I had on my inspiration board and made sure to get them. The most important thing to me and my husband was to not spend too much time during our wedding taking pictures. We wanted to enjoy the day with friends and family. Eric somehow managed to get ALL the photos we could ever want and we barely missed anything. Post wedding - he delivered all assets exactly when he said he would from the sneak peeks to the full collection and album. Weddings are a huge investment for one day of your life and the only thing you have to take away from it are your memories and the pictures. I couldn’t be more lucky to have these photos to look back on for the rest of my life. I promise if you book Eric you will be so happy that you did. 10000000/10! -

I don't normally write reviews, but I had to come here to say that hiring Eric as our wedding photographer was one of the best decisions we made when planning our wedding. He was easy to talk to and excited to see all of my inspiration photos and ideas, which made the whole process a lot more fun. On the day he was super focused and professional, put everyone at ease, and got some amazing photos that all of our friends+family have complimented endlessly. I would recommend Eric 100%! -

AMAZING Photographer
When looking for a wedding photographer in California, I stumbled upon Eric’s Instagram. I absolutely fell in love with his photos. I knew that he was going to be the one who would photograph our wedding! He is such a kind human being. He made my husband and I feel so comfortable in front of the camera. Our wedding photos are the BEST photos we’ve ever received. I’m looking forward to hanging them up on our wall forever! Even though our wedding is over, we will always be friends with Eric! My only recommendation for anyone looking for a photographer is to choose Eric. You won’t regret it! -

I have known Eric for a few years now, and it was so special to have him shoot our engagement photos. My fiancé and I aren't ones who enjoy having our photos taken, but Eric made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. We shot at a beach in Southern California and Eric was right there in the water getting hit by the waves with us! His energy, passion, and professionalism made the day a moment we will cherish forever. We were completely blown away by the final images and honestly cannot stop looking at the photos! Eric truly is the best at what he does. 10,000/10 would recommend for your special moments! -

Best Wedding Photographer
Eric has been a pleasure to work without throughout our wedding. My husband and I chose him after we saw his photos that he took for a friend of mine - we loved the way he shot his photos, as his style incorporates a lot of bright lighting and scenic backgrounds. After studying his portfolio and comparing to some other photographers, his style was what captured our eye the most. What really convinced us, however, was his professional and personable character that we could see through our initial conversations with him. He was extremely patient, a listening ear, and loved to hear our thoughts of photo ideas and what we envisioned. I remember that even as COVID hit, Eric remained calm, flexible, and willing to work with our changed plans, which made the wedding planning journey all the more smooth. By our wedding day, Eric was fully planned with locations scoped, timing thought out, and poses saved, which made the experience absolutely pleasurable. On top of that, Eric's photos that finally came out were amazing. He captured the day with all the details of the venue and decorations, the bridal party and family shots, even the funny moments we had with our guests, and of course, to our photos that so beautifully recounted the moment of when we said our "I dos". Our favorite photos that he took were the ones of us after the ceremony with just the two of us - his photos romantically recounted the blissful time between me and my husband right after we got married, with the sunset in full view. Eric is a phenomenal photographer who is very talented in his shooting, directing, and editing skills, but on top of that, he was such a kind, sweet, thoughtful, and professional person, and was a JOY to have him throughout our wedding day. We would highly recommend him to anyone - and many of our friends and family who encountered him on our day was so impressed by him and only had good things to say about Eric! Thank you so much Eric! You are a ROCKSTAR! We love reliving our day through your photos! -
