    The Perfect Proposal

    Ning saved me. I was planning a proposal in Newport Beach and I'd only been there once before (it was the first time my girlfriend and I went away together a few years ago). I was very concerned about avoiding large crowds while proposing on the beach. Ning was effectively a management consultant who also happened to be an expert photographer. He spent a lot of time on the phone with me going through beach options, timing and offered a lot of first-hand experience that helped me figure out the exact location and time of where the proposal would happen.

    During the proposal itself, he was exactly where he said he'd be and he shot about 2,200+ photos in 2 hours. I never felt rushed and he also suggested some excellent shots after the deed was done.

    Afterwards, he was very communicative about when and where I'd receive photos. I got them 24 hours later and he even made two separate albums which made the review process much, much easier.

    I cannot recommend him enough; obviously I used him for personal reasons but I'd use him professionally too (e.g. if my company had an event, etc.). He is responsive, quick thinking, logical and ultimately the best at what he does.

    Ning - thank you for turning what could've been the most stressful day of my life into the most treasured memory I have!

    Ning photographed one our venue’s most memorable weddings! With special life events, what matter the most are the memories, and Ning did an amazing job at capturing them! So many stunning photos of the bride & groom, ceremony, wedding party, family, decorations… we are transported to the event just by viewing the incredible photos. As a wedding venue, we were not a typical client, but we will certainly refer our guests to use Ning’s photography services!

    Ning is a consumate professional. I've known him for many years and in addition to his professionalism he is a great guy to work with. His grasp of lighting places him well above the average photo/video person. His video team is one of the best in Socal Weddings. Can't recommend him more highly!

    Ning and his team are awesome. As a fellow photographer, I was unsure who I was ultimately going to go with and I couldn't have been more happy to have chosen Ning Wong Studios. He is easy to work with and makes people feel comfortable. Out of all the compliments during the day, I think we got the most compliments about him as a photographer. He keeps things light and fun and jumps in to help even when he doesn't have to.

    One of the things that sticks out in my mind is when he was setting up the group shots after the ceremony and he was arranging us for a family shot. He saw that I was struggling holding one of the kids for so long so he held him to give me a break. He was literally arranging us, telling us where to stand and how to shift our bodies while holding a baby and all his gear and camera strapped to him. Talk about going above and beyond.

    Ning Wong Studios was a great choice for our event. Ning and his staff did exactly what you would want from a photographer and crew; you don't even notice they are there, yet they still capture the essence of an event, through timeless pictures. My family and I will be able to cherish these memories of that day, for a lifetime.

    Amazing Photographer and Videographer. Ning and his crew are amazing, friendly, and professional. His team were on time and created memories that we'll cherish forever. He has a laid back personality, but is still not afraid to tell everyone how to pose or where to be. Beautiful images and video that we can't thank enough.

    Ning's team provided photography and videography services for a wedding I coordinated this summer and I was blown away by his talent, creativity and all around amazing services! We had several last minute changes to the timeline and schedule and Ning gracefully rolled with the punches and save the day to keep us on track. Ning's team was such a pleasure to work with and we were beyond impressed with the final results. I HIGHLY recommend Ning for your event, you will not be disappointed!

    Ning is just amazing to work with, and his work is absolutely beautiful!!  We had a tiny wedding with immediate family only and decided that quality photos are a top priority.  Photos capture the memories on the momentous day that marks the beginning of the rest of our lives together as one.  You only get one shot to capture these precious moments, and we’re so glad that we chose to work with Ning!
     
    We’ve done extensive research in choosing a photographer and decided on Ning.  I’ve also attended some friends’ weddings where Ning and his team shot at.  The experiences were always wonderful and the photos consistently turn out beautifully.  He couldn’t come more highly recommended, and we can see why!  The decision was easy – we chose a “sure thing” and had one less worry during planning.
     
    We had some pre- and post-wedding portraits in addition to ceremony photos.  We were pretty nervous on the big day, but Ning kept us calm and gave us much needed direction.  Our anxiety turned into fun after mere minutes into the photo session!

    We barely noticed Ning during the ceremony, yet he was still able to capture some amazing photos from every angle – he’s like a ninja!! He’s excellent with coordinating various combinations of family photos and he’s just amazing with kids. He had three fussy children lighting up with his goofy expressions for some awesome shots!

    The finished photos are gorgeous!  Ning truly has a knack for composition and lighting, capturing the mood and atmosphere and bringing the moments to life.  You can definitely tell he’s an expert in the industry and the results showcase his professionalism.  Our friends and family are extremely impressed.  Ning really did make us look stunning!
     
    TLDR: Ning is so professional and easy to work with.  The quality of his work is excellent – he’s a pro and it definitely shows!  He came highly recommended, and likewise we are highly recommending his services to everyone for good reason!  Thank you, Ning!!

    Ning delivered an amazing work through which he flawlessly captured beautiful and precious moments that can't be described in words with enhanced touches that help depict our timeless wedding. Same edit video was played at the end of reception as a pleasant surprise to our 200 guests (Highly Recommend) and it was a hit to say the least. We couldn't be more pleased to be able to share with everyone all those moments that flew by too quickly to recap otherwise in a professionally and fantastically well-produced video thanks to high speed and quality of Ning Studios's skilled videography that I have yet to find elsewhere.

    Ning Wong Photography was flawless. My wife and I entrusted our engagement session, as well as wedding photography, and videography to Ning and his team. They went above and beyond all our expectations for each. They spent the entire day making sure our engagement session was both thorough and fun, from daylight to sunset, and the pictures turned out beautiful. We also purchased the same-day video edit and the video they were able to shoot, edit, and produce on our wedding day was stunning and unforgettable. It was surely the highlight of the entire wedding and our guests could not believe how amazing the video was. My wife and I were profoundly touched and it was the perfect way to close a perfect evening. We watched that video several times every day for months after the wedding; we could not ask for a more perfect wedding memento. We just finished sifting through the 1500 pictures the photography team produced, each one perfectly edited and a perfect capturing of the ceremony and evening. Thank you so much Ning Wong photography to you and your team! Would recommend to anybody!

    I'm the mother of the groom and couldn't be any happier with Ning Wong Studios' wonderful work! We were also very pleased with the same day edit as that was one of the highlights of the wedding. Ning and his team were professional, punctual and captured the entire wedding so beautifully. We are so grateful to have Ning's memories to last a lifetime. Ning is worth every penny!!!

    Me and my wife had a short wedding ceremony at the local courthouse that lasted about 2-3 hours, and we asked for Ning Wong's services after he was recommended by another photographer that we were considering. After seeing him in action I can easily see why. Great pictures and a personality that really makes you feel at ease as he's taking pictures, he managed to capture pretty much every single high point of our wedding on camera. The online photo gallery he sent to us along with our pictures was a nice touch so we could easily share our wedding moments with friends and family that weren't able to attend.

    I would recommend Ning Wong's services in a heartbeat

    We just received our photos yesterday and they are beyond beautiful. Ning was very professional in his work and he knew exactly what to do to ease my mind during our wedding, especially when my husband was 30 minutes late. Our venue was at the Old Orange County Courthouse and it's along a few streets and it was getting busy during the afternoon. Ning was so professional, that he timed the photos to be exactly when cars wouldn't be in the shot! He's a great guy and he learned my family dynamics quickly, since we were having an intimate wedding ceremony and reception with 13 of our closest family members. I enjoyed working with Ning and I am very happy with his work! I highly recommend him!

    Ning was absolutely the best choice for our wedding in November 2015 at Crystal Cove. Our pictures are spectacularly beautiful! Everyone is in love with the moments that he captured. The views of the landscape were breathtaking, and he was able to capture all of the magic of the day. We never had to think twice about anything related to photography, taking a huge burden off of us, and everything went seamlessly. We received our photos a short 6 weeks after our wedding and were able to share them with all of our friends and family. We couldn't be happier with the results. I highly recommend Ning and his team!

    Ning! I knew he was a good photographer, but what he did for me and my wife really blew me away! There's a difference between taking a good picture and capturing the moment with all the emotions that come with it and Ning definitely knows how to do that. Through his pictures, we can relive our amazing wedding any time we want and it never fails to bring a smile to my face. Ning was super easy to work with, gave us great direction, and he's hilarious so you don't even need to pretend to be smiliing. I would recommend Ning to anybody and everybody!

    I don't even know how to begin to describe Ning Wong Studios. They captured everything my husband and I wanted to a T. It was all stress free thanks to Ning. He coordinated fun, beautiful, and amazing shots and he understood the style we wanted. We didn't even need to clue him in on where to begin. His amazing talent is clearly evident in his work, and he'll go above and beyond to make sure he captures the perfect shot, just like every true artist would.

    I would truly recommend him to anyone that wants a trustworthy, talented, and dependable photographer/videographer for their wedding or event.

    And one more thing... He won't be on time to the event; He'll arrive earlier than you. :)

    Outside of the venue, photography is arguably the most important decision you make. We all know how expensive wedding photography can be, so we made sure to do our research before booking. We were instantly impressed with both his engagement and wedding photos and after a few initial calls, we decided to book Ning.

    Our engagement photos were exactly what we were hoping for and our wedding photos captured each special moment. We've had the photos for a few weeks now and we've already gone through them multiple times. Each time, we get to relive the day and we seem to find new "favorite" photos.

    Photography is too important to skimp on. Go with Ning.

    Ning Wong Studios is simply the BEST! I cannot say enough good things about Ning and his team! They did such an incredible job capturing all the special moments of our wedding, big and small. They're great to work with- fun, easy, professional, and very good at what they do! I barely noticed the crew throughout the day (a good thing!) And our wedding photos and video turned out so amazing! Not only does he do awesome work, but Ning truly cares about his couples and loves what he does... and it shows! I could not have asked for a more perfect team to capture one of the best days of our lives (:

    When my wife and I were in the process of planning our wedding, and deciding which vendors to work with, two of the most important things were were looking for was finding someone who we could trust, and finding someone who gave us peace of mind. Looking back at our wedding day, I am happy to say that Ning Wong Studios satisfied these two things and much much more!

    Planning a wedding can be very stressful, but honestly speaking...it really doesn't have to be. When you work with professionals, such as Mr. Wong and his team, the peace of mind my wife and I had knowing that our special day would be captured in the best way possible was PRICELESS!!!

    It's been just over five months since our wedding day, and we've obviously shown our video to many of our friends and family. What I've noticed after viewing our wedding video countless times is that I always get the same feeling every time I show it to someone.
    Let me explain:
    - First of all, I'm always excited when I watch our wedding video...it's like re-living the day all over again
    - I feel very proud when I show our video to others, because Mr. Wong and his team did quality work
    - I make a point to watch other people as they're watching our wedding video, and I always see the same reaction...they're completely enthralled, they can't take their eyes off the screen, and their smiles are ear to ear

    I'll end my review on Ning Wong Studios with this statement:
    Looking back at our experience with Mr. Wong and his team, it was as if Ning Wong was producing a video for his own wedding. That's how happy my wife and I are with his work, that's why we are so proud to show off our video to everyone we know, and that's why you should choose Ning Wong Studios for your videography needs.

    Ning Wong Studios (Wedding Photography & Videography)'s reply:

    Wow, Alan, I'm speechless!

    Thank you so much for the amazing review. Reading this made me smile from ear to ear - I'm so thankful that I was able to be a part of your wedding day. I am flattered by your kind words, and I'm glad you love our work! :)

    Ning photographed our destination wedding. He was so well prepared we couldn't believe it. He had scouted out several locations prior to his arrival and knew exactly where to go and how he wanted the shoot to go. Ning is very easy going and personable. He put us at ease and captured some amazing shots. His professionalism and personality really made things go smoothly and he went above and beyond to make our wedding special. We recommend Ning without reservation to everyone. Several guests at our wedding already were looking to book his services for their own weddings. He Is a wonderful person and did an amazing job with our photos and we can't speak highly enough about him.

    Your wedding in Puerto Rico was simply beautiful. Thank you for putting up with me - letting me drive you two to all these locations on the island, and for being such lovely hosts. I know you guys had the pick of the litter when it came to your wedding photography, so I'm blessed when you guys decided to choose me. :)

    Congrats again, and I hope to see you again soon!

    My bride and I had researched several other photographers before Ning’s online portfolio caught our eyes. The quality of his work impressed us, and after meeting with him in person, we decided that he would be our choice to photograph both our engagement and wedding.

    Throughout the entire process, Ning was friendly, professional, and always willing to provide suggestions and listen to our own. Our engagement session was taken all over Long Beach, and he even volunteered to drive us from the CSULB Japanese Gardens to Shoreline Village so we wouldn’t have to use multiple vehicles.

    The experience went so well that we decided to add cinematography to our original package. The fact that he provided an option to have all wedding footage given to us on our own hard drive was the cherry on top. On the day of the wedding, Ning brought in a crew of six to take shots of not only us, but of the different scenes and stories that were unfolding on our special day. As some of his assistants are independent photographers themselves, their expertise shone through and we enjoyed working with each and every one of them.

    My wife and I were very happy with the quality of our photos and the speed at which he was able to get them back to us. All the special moments were captured and then some. The video was an absolute joy to watch. Everything about it—the cinematography…the editing…really the whole thing—was fantastic. We easily recommend Ning for any future couples out there.

    I used Ning Wong Studios for videography. We were very happy with his team.

    Originally, I was not planning on having a videographer. I am so glad I changed my mind! It is worth the additional expense because few things you purchase last beyond the wedding day. The video was able to capture moments in a way that photography could not do alone. The day goes by so fast, and at the end you just want something to watch to try and remember what happened! Additionally, I am so glad we have something to share with family in the future.

    Ning Wong and his team were very professional. They were always ready and worked so well together and with my photographer. I chose Ning because the quality of his videos were far superior than anyone else I looked at in the LA area. My video was no exception.
