    Holly is THE best! We are in love with our wedding album 😍


    Holly did my wedding last June, and the photos are absolutely gorgeous! She’s seriously incredible, a joy to work with, and so extremely talented. From the beginning she was extremely organized and on top of it. She works with you early on to ensure she understands all the photos you want taken and with who. On the day of the wedding, she captured ALL of the most special moments absolutely perfectly. She spent time making sure to pose us which was helpful, as my husband and I are both typically awkward when it comes to photos 😂 I’ve never really liked photos of myself so I was pretty nervous to get our wedding album back, but we were both in love with the photos. It was so hard choosing the maximum photos allowed for the album, as they were all gorgeous. I ended up paying extra to add more than 50 additional photos haha. My only regret is not hiring her to take photos of the rehearsal dinner. A photographer is one of the most important individuals to hire for your wedding, and I can say with confidence that Holly is the best of the best. If you are considering her, absolutely do it, you will not be disappointed! Thank you Holly for everything!!!

She immediately asked us such great questions to make sure she lined up with our vision, and boy did she deliver. We have the most beautiful wedding photos. I cried when I saw them. Holly made me feel beautiful throughout the whole process. She went above and beyond what we could have dreamed in capturing memories that will last a lifetime. She was so flexible when our timelines kept changing, and I feel like she was more than a photographer to us. She was also a friend. We look forward to reaching back out to Holly for our future photography needs. So, if you're looking for a great photographer, your search can end now. Choose Holly. You'll be so happy that you did.

    Book her now because she’s 1000% worth it!

    Words can’t express how much we loved working with Holly & her team for our wedding. We truly couldn’t have picked a better person to capture every moment on our special day. My husband and I initially didn’t plan to do a first look but Holly recommended that we do it to catch the sunlight and it was the best decision we made. She really wants the best for her clients and has so much knowledge that we knew we were in great hands from the very beginning. Holly is dedicated to get to know and connect with her clients. My husband and I have never taken professional photos before and Holly made us feel so comfortable throughout the entire day. It is a special talent to be an amazing photographer and Holly has it! We look forward to working with her for more photo sessions in the future.

    Best choice for photography

    Selecting our photographer for the wedding day was a big deal for me, I knew the photos were something I would always look back on. From the moment I spoke to Holly, I knew she was the perfect person to shoot our wedding day. She was so personable, professional, and made me feel comfortable. One of my concerns was the dark lighting in our planetarium ceremony, but from the getting ready photos to the first look, ceremony to reception, it was all amazing. I literally can't stop looking at them or sharing them. All of our guests were impressed by Holly and her second shooter Ken, who truly left us with an amazing gallery to cherish for a lifetime, we can not recommend her enough!

    A Congenial Time with Holly D.

    I’ve conducted several shoots with Holly, and each time I seem to be impressed as if it were my first experience. It is unbeknownst to me as to how she is able to capture my personality, expressiveness and manner of being throughout each shoot; each shoot has been taken for several different reasons - meaning I am looking to capture different sentiments and attributes. She is simply exquisite and incredibly gifted in her craft. It is my own personal honor to have her as my photographer. She always knows what to deliver, how to deliver it, and how to maintain the desired essence of her client throughout the entire process. It is a joy and a pleasure working with her and her warm spirit. Look forward to my next shoot with her!

    Holly is so much fun!

    Holly was an absolutely exquisite photographer! She knew all of the best angles and shots and directed us flawlessly. She is also just a super fun person to hang out with. She is so sweet and made everyone feel very comfortable. I had some specific shots that I wanted in a certain area of Monterey and she was happy to accommodate any of my requests. I also found her pricing to be very reasonable considering the amount of time you have her and her assistant photographer, who was also fabulous! I was thrilled with the photos when I got them back and can't stop looking at them. I would highly recommend Holly for all of your photography needs!

    Look no further!

    We loved Holly from our first phone call with her. I fell in love with her photography style and website and then loved every minute of working with her. Holly is sweet, friendly, and incredibly talented. She really understands wedding photography, brides and their needs. Holly made every shot I dreamed of a beautiful reality. She listened to my ideas and found ways to make them happen. She was responsive, attentive, creative, and flexible. She even got up on top of a wall to take a picture I absolutely had to have!

    Her turnaround time was incredible! I was so surprised and happy to look at our pictures on our honeymoon… and of course to hear from Holly.

    Completely friendly, completely professional, and completely talented! You couldn’t ask for more! I still look at our pictures every single day!

    The most beautiful photos!!

    This review is long overdue. Holly was our photographer for our wedding 2 years ago, and we still think of her often. We had such a great time shooting with her,
    and she really does AMAZING work!! Her final product is so good, for example, her photo album books, are stunningly original and beautiful. Every person that I
    show it to is just completely blown away.
    The album itself is like a showpiece, with a leather display box and a gorgeous cover and layout, when I look at it and all
    of our photos from our day, I can hardly believe that it is really us! It looks like we
    are a couple from a storybook fairytale, and not just us two regular people!
    Holly helped make our wedding one of the best decisions of our lives, not just because of what it means to officially seal our love on paper, but also because of
    the experience we had at the wedding and with her as our photographer. She took every single thing we said into
    account, and catered to our every wish, no matter how difficult. groom with our 2 cats and dog, and let
    me tell you, to orchestrate cats into a wedding photo is no small feat! And now these photos are some of my very favorite photos in life!! Holly was game for anything and was an integral part of making our day the most special of our
    lives thus far. Holly is also unbelievably supportive. She
    helped handle delicate emotions (as can be known to happen at weddings) by being supportive and helpful and played an important role in things continuing along smoothly, which is just totally priceless. I can't say enough wonderful things about both Holly's photos and also
    her as a person to work with. But even if Holly wasn't so wonderful to work with, she'd still be the best photographer simply due to her work, which is truly
    beautiful and original, with both classic and imaginative elements, making for the
    best wedding photos and memories!!!!!

    Effortless, beautiful, professional

    Holly is the type of wedding vendor that you will NEVER have to worry about. From her responsiveness, quality of work, and professionalism, she will put you at ease immediately. Taking pictures with her is fun, easy, and will make you feel beautiful. They will be pictures that you cherish forever. Holly is always on time, on task, and transparent with her products and pricing. I absolutely loved working with her, and would recommend her to anyone getting married.

    Holly D is such an amazing person

    You can really feel that Holly's job isn't just about her making money. She truly enjoys capturing moments for people. We hired Holly for our engagement and wedding photos. We booked her before Covid and she was very flexible as we had to postpone our wedding twice and finally nailed down a date in late June. Definitely recommending Holly!

    FANTASTIC. I am a forever costumer.

    Holly Drennen the best photographer in the world. We used her for engagement and wedding photos in Texas. Some have asked why I would fly a photographer in for my wedding...

    Above and Beyond!

    Holly was the best wedding vendor decision we made. Planning a wedding is overwhelming, and there are tons of options out there when it comes to each part of the wedding, including photography! Right from the start, Holly was kind, professional and reliable. And trust me when I say that reliability isn't something that I can say about most wedding vendors :) Holly went above any beyond on our special day to make the day smooth, easy, comfortable, and fun! Our bridal party and family all commented on how great she was. We received our photos quickly and LOVE them! Holly completely knocked it out of the park and I will always refer her to friends.

    Photographer

    If I could give Holly 10 stars, I would! She was so helpful through the entire wedding process, from planning to Printing photos. She was patient with my little ones and captured even the most stubborn little smiles. I would recommend her over and over and will definite be a repeat customer!

    Fairytale photos Sonoma

    Holly was great to work with for our 25th wedding vow renewal. She made sure to get to know us and our wishes for the event on forehand even though we live in Norway and all contact was through phone and emails and 9 hour timedifference. She has a pleaseant personality and made us all relax and act natural in front of the camera. We had pictures taken of us as a couple and our 4 kids ages 25, 22 and 14, as well as family pictures. The pictures are wonderful and easy to download and get printed. We recommend Holly warmly.

    Holly was beyond amazing. We were very lucky to have her as our photographer! Holly was very sweet and so easy to work with. She was down to earth, which made everyone in the wedding party (including family and ourselves) feel super comfortable when getting their pictures taken. Everyone was raving about her at the wedding, and my mom has already been recommending her to everyone she can. The photos were absolutely beautiful, and better than I could have even imagined. She captured the decor and our special moments so perfectly :). We will definitely be recommending her to others!

    Amazing Experience, Amazing Photos

    Having been both a bridesmaid and a bride in weddings Holly has done in 2024, it’s no exaggeration to say she is amazing! She is extremely knowledgeable, professional, and willing to answer any questions that came up. She’s great at creating a wonderful atmosphere during the photo session and the photos always come out beautifully. I’m so grateful that we were able to work with her and I would absolutely recommend her :)

    Great, so much more than I expected..

    I highly recommend Holly D Photography. She took pictures of our 50th wedding anniversary celebration She was very committed to making our day special. She was personal, very caring, flexible, and understanding. She asked about how we met, about our family and special parts of our ceremony. She made sure to find out what pictures we wanted her to take. She took so many special pictures. I love them mostly because every time I look at the pictures, I get to relive our special day through the great pictures she took. I have to mention that several of our guest mentioned how impressed they were with her. I can't say enough about how happy we are that Holly took our pictures. I hope I have another opportunity for her to take pictures for us again.

    I wish I could give Holly a 10 out of 5 stars!

    We discovered Holly through our wedding venue, Regale Winery. As we browsed through various wedding sample albums, Holly's work immediately stood out to us with its airy, bright, and summery theme.

    Before our wedding, we had a delightful 1-hour pre-wedding photo session with Holly at SF City Hall. From the moment we met her, Holly's cheerfulness and positivity made the experience truly enjoyable. As she captured our moments, she effortlessly brought out genuine laughs and smiles, making the whole process feel natural and easy.

    Holly went above and beyond by accommodating our requests for some additional shots at SF City Hall, which we greatly appreciated. Moreover, her turnaround time for delivering the photos was impressively quick, unlike some photographers who take several months to provide the final.

    Holly has clearly put a lot of thought into her services, and on her website, she offers questionnaires to help plan various aspects of the event, such as family photos and timeline. Her professionalism and genuine desire to assist shine through, making the entire process smoother and more enjoyable.

    Now, about the wedding photos themselves - they are nothing short of breathtaking! The end result far surpassed our expectations, leaving us amazed by the stunning and gorgeous photos. We are excited to create a hardcopy album to preserve these precious memories forever.

    I wholeheartedly recommend Holly for any life events you wish to capture, be it weddings, family moments, or baby milestones. Once you interact with her, you will immediately her sweet personality.

    Thank you, Holly, for making our wedding day truly memorable and delivering photos that we will cherish for a lifetime!

    5+ stars, you must work with Holly

    Holly is absolutely the professional you want to work with when capturing the moments that matter most. She photographed my engagement photos and wedding. Her level of professionalism and customer service is unmatched. Holly is highly responsive, arrived to both events early, and brings a high level of care/support to her clients. She was even able to help when my dress ripped during our engagement photos (totally my fault). I would work with Holly again in a heartbeat! She deserves more than 5 stars!
