About this vendor
Dedicated to creating lasting memories that capture the special moments you cannot plan. A good photographer will allow you to remember your wedding day; My goal is to seize the emotion and imprints it into each image. My purpose is to never let you forget how you felt the day you dedicated yourselves to each other. I LOVE to freeze moments... moments that the Bride and Groom didn't even notice. The moments that you look back on and tell stories about for years to come. Photos are all you have left of that day... you'll frame them, share them, and with us... you'll love them!

With Adam you get more than someone shooting a camera with your every movement. You get guidance, assurance, vision, and his willingness to be a backup wedding planner when you have no clue what you're doing. His pricing is fair for the fantastic work his captures. For our wedding, he was more than our vendor, he became an active guest at the wedding and a friend afterwards. He stayed professional and communicative through the entire process leading up to the wedding and eased us into what was required on the big day! Hire him with confidence!
Adam is the most amazing photographer ever. My husband is not the most photogenic person, but Adam helped him feel comfortable and got some amazing shots! If you’re on the fence, I would definitely go for it. My pictures are more than I could have ever expected. Adam is not only an amazing photographer but also an amazing person.
We hired Adam Kent last summer for our anniversary/postponed engagement photos. Adam was an absolute delight to work with! He came recommended to us from a friend and I am so happy that he was! We flew in to California from Toronto Canada, and wanted to capture photos in our favourite spot in Santa Monica. Adam helped us capture the exact feel and looks we wanted, and of course the beautiful view! He was extremely friendly, and so fun to work with.
He was also very professional, and was in touch multiple times prior to us meeting (phone calls & texting since we live in Canada) so that he knew exactly what we wanted.
The photos came out better than we could have imagined, we wish he had photographed our wedding! The photos are displayed now all around our home, we cannot wait to come back soon with our little one to capture more amazing photos with Adam. We highly, highly recommend!!!!
Adam is seriously the best photographer ever. Not only is he very talented, but he is a blast to be around all day during your wedding. My wedding photos were everything I hoped for and more. He captured the day perfectly, all the emotions, moments and laughs.
Im a photographer myself, and he brought me to multiple weddings to teach me what he does when I was just starting out. His photo philosophy is to tell a story with his photos - and he really succeeds at that. His level of expertise is something I aspire to reach in my business. I have literally recommended him to anyone I know who has gotten engaged.
First off, I want to say if you don’t hire Adam Kent you will deeply regret it. Adam was recommended to me by a friend and after meeting with him we looked no further. During the entire process, he was professional, knowledgeable, and easy to get along with. He made the entire process of taking photos a fun one. In the end we were completely obsessed with the photographs and could not believe how beautifully he captured our intimate wedding. Once again, I can not recommend him enough. You will not be disappointed.
Adam Kent is your dream photographer. he’s attentive, kind, creative, talented, and above all PREPARED. he will do whatever it takes to make sure your special day is documented exactly the way you dream. he went from being a rad wedding vendor to a true friend, and i cannot recommend him highly enough.
We did not even shop around for other photographers, there was no doubt we wanted to have Adam shoot our wedding. He did my sister’s wedding 8 years ago and her pictures were beautiful. All of his experience really shows in his work. Adam is truly an artist and has a way of capturing the perfect angles and light. He’s also very knowledgeable about weddings in general and offered advice and support both leading up to our wedding and the day of. I cannot recommend him enough – you will NOT be disappointed.
We couldn't have been happier picking Adam as our wedding photographer. Besides the fact that his pictures are beautiful (which they are!), he was also great to work with. He was super fast to reply to every email and text message throughout the entire process, and he was very helpful anytime we needed suggestions or advise. Plus, he has the best personality! Adam was constantly making everyone laugh, which both helps to calm your nerves and allows for more natural looking pictures. Our entire wedding party kept saying how much they loved our photographer on the day of our wedding. Also, after we got our pictures, we received comments that our wedding pictures were the best people had ever seen.
To comment on his photography style, we loved that Adam is so versatile. With Adam, you won't end up with photos that are all portraits, or all close-ups, or all in color. He takes pictures in multiple styles, which allows for a much more interesting photo album. He is also sure to capture all of the small details from the day that you spent so much time planning. It was wonderful to see things that we just didn't get a chance to on our wedding day because we were so busy.
I can't recommend Adam enough. Just book him. You won't regret it!
My wife and I have hired Adam for many different occasions / events including our wedding. This guy amazes us EVERY TIME!! He is truly an artist and loves what he does. We have so much fun working with him and it really comes through in our photos. Love his style and his approach. Cannot recommend him enough! You will not be disappointed!!! We have breathtaking photos that we will cherish forever. Thank you Adam!
Let me start off by saying that after talking to Adam on our first initial phone chat, it was all we needed to know that he was the right guy for our wedding. What started off as a formal conversation about his work quickly became a casual get to know each other chat. We both instantly became comfortable with him and that's huge since we are camera shy.
His professionalism and flexibility made the whole process easy to plan and work with. Not only that, he always know exactly when to calm our nerves through a quick joke. He gave us direction when we needed it and kept us smiling.
The highlight of it all is definitely his quality of work. He creates breathtaking and timeless photos through various perspectives, and we both couldn't stop praising each captured moment.
Adam is truly an expert in his craft and he will absolutely help you capture all the magical moments on your special day.
Thank you Adam!!
Hands down everything we wanted for a wedding photographer! Adam Kent is talented, creative, original, captivating, just AMAZING OVERALL!! He surpassed all our expectations. He brought our vision to life.
From start until our big day he made us feel at ease. Timely communication, answers all questions, isn’t afraid to share his ideas and thoughts to execute your event. He was worth every penny
Besides my wedding dress, photos were the most important investment for my wedding. And on top of that I was nervous because we were getting married on the beach and the lighting was going to be harsh. But Adam did an amazing job calming my nerves and creating amazing photos! Duh! He also was great at guiding us throughout the day because my husband and I are not comfortable in front of the camera. Even as the day was running behind or things were not going as planned, Adam was a big part of keeping us cool and going with the flow. He made it effortless and was so much fun to work with! I highly recommend Adam!
When getting advice from family and friends about planning our wedding so many people told us that it was so important to get the right photographer because your wedding photos are things you will cherish for a lifetime. We are so happy we went with Adam Kent Photography. Adam not only did our wedding photos but he also took shots for our engagement session. I am not someone who likes to have their picture taken but Adam made it so much fun! He has a great eye and really pays a lot of attention to detail. Given all his experience, he really helped ensure the our special day went seamlessly. The wedding album came out fantastic and we get some many compliments on the quality work he did. Not only is Adam a great photographer, he is also a wonderful person to work with. We will definitely recommend Adam to anyone looking for a photographer and look forward to working with him again for our other photography needs.
Adam was amazing!! We are not very comfortable in front of a camera and he talked us through it, made us feel comfortable and took photos that I didn’t know were possible. We had a destination wedding and he was attentive, and worked with us every step of the way, making the process so much easier for us. He has so much knowledge and experience, we were blown away by the finished product. He was more than just a photographer, he helped us from beginning to end, and was so professional and patient. We even had a callejoneada, which is essentially a wedding parade, and he did the whole mile and half through the steep, cobblestone streets running ahead to get the best pictures of the whole group and then running back to get close-ups. He also offered to do the “first look” and photos of my husband and I the day before the actual wedding since it was a destination wedding and our time-line was scary tight. I would have never thought of that, and it turned out being one of my most favorite moments because we got to really enjoy each other and not be stressed by a schedule. He genuinely cares, and thinks about the big picture and it shows in how artistically he captured our love through the lens. I would recommend him a thousand times over, he is a visionary and will make your memories vibrant, touching, and powerful.
My new hubbie and I are so happy we chose Adam to be our wedding photographer. He has a great artistic eye and we were very happy with the mix of candids and posed shots. All our photos look so amazing and not overly photoshopped. Im not the most comfortable in front of the camera but with Adams help and direction I had a great time during our engagement photo sesh and throughout the wedding. He is super easy to get along with and has a great personality! I feel like he’s now family and would hire him again in a second. I can’t wait to see our final wedding album pictures, which we will of course treasure forever!
Adam Kent is a first rate, professional. Choosing Adam was one of the best decisions we made for our daughter's wedding. Besides his excellent, creative, and dramatic photography, he was very easy to work with. Adam listened to our requirements and vision of what we wanted, then took off and improved on them in ways we hadn't imagined, all while also giving us exactly what we wanted. He has a very subtle and pleasant manner and never inserted himself into the ceremony or any of the activities. The album he created is beautiful and we think of it as a work of art as much as a beautiful memory of a wonderful day. He may be a bit pricey, but well worth the results.
My sister used Adam as her photoagrapher. We had a wonderful experience with him. He is professional and he made the wedding party feel comfortable. We had a fun time. He captured the enjoyable moments and well as posed pictures. His pictures are creative and beautiful. I would recommend anyone to use him. His slide show he puts together was very beautiful. Anyone who is looking for someone to not just have posed pictures but candid pictures as well I would recommend you use Adam. I plan to use him in the future.
Adam is the absolute best. We were immediately blown away by is passion, love for his craft, and level of expertise. The way he talks about his wife, and his own marriage, you can tell he loves love. He was so fun during every shoot, keeping everyone laughing, and even turning our typically reserved friends into models for the day. We couldn’t imagine hiring anyone else, and feel so lucky to have had a Adam as our photographer!
We got married last September and I’m finally getting around to posting a review because we feel Adam needs to be known!! It was hard to find a photographer that we felt 100% confident in. Meeting with Adam we knew he was the one!! So we went ahead with our gut and We hired Adam for our engagement and wedding pictures. We couldn’t have been more happy with our decision on choosing him. He made us feel so comfortable during our engagement shoot and loved loved the turn out! We did them at the Santa Monica pier.
On to our wedding, Wow! Everything played on time perfectly!! We did the first look which I’m glad we did. We were able to capture more intimate pictures being we had more time just the two of us. Everyone at the wedding kept coming up to me complimenting on how professional he was and how even they couldn’t wait to see how the pictures came out and boy did they turn out amazing!!! Adam definitely has an eye on capturing so amazing moments!!
Overall we were extremely happy with Adams work, his professionalism along with his fun side that made us feel so comfortable! A big thank you!!
Updated review: after using Adan 2 years ago for our wedding we have continued to use him for all of our photography needs he did my maternity pictures as well as our first family portraits and they were all so stunning! He is so incredibly talented and artistic I would recommend him to anyone who wants a great photographer
If you are looking for original and artistic wedding pictures Adam is the one for you! He is professional and is very easy to work with, my now husband and I are not ones to take posed pictures and Adam was able to make us feel comfortable enough to get those pictures we were looking for! I'm so excited to see the final product!! I wish I could give him a higher rating because he was able to deal with what ever came our way the day of in a business like matter! I had so many people ask who we had as our photographer because they were all very impressed with the slide show of all the morning events. my main goal was to have beautiful pictures to remember this special day and he did not disappoint!
Thank you Adam Kent Photography. Adam provided a great and friendly service. My now husband wanted someone with a certain style when looking for a photographer, he didn't just want a "regular" wedding photographer. My husband wanted an artist, and after many calls and interviews we chose Adam for the work we saw on his website, and he felt easy to work with through our calls. He really grew on me before and at the wedding... There were multiple times he helped me calm down and see the bigger picture when I needed to. He was EXTREMELY professional at our wedding, and was so focused on his job and the results we wanted. He's fantastic to work with and I'd recommend him for all of my friends.
Thank you Adam!
We cannot say enough good things about Adam. He has a great eye and truly talented. The slideshow that he put together to show everyone at the reception from pictures of the Day was absolutely amazing. It added such a special touch to our day. We cry every time we watch it.
Words cannot even begin to express how grateful my husband and I are for Adam! He was the first photographer we came in contact with and we immediately fell in love with not only his gorgeous / artistic photography, but his personality. Adam is so fun to work with and he makes taking pictures in front of the camera so comfortable. We couldn't believe how much fun we had with him at our engagement session! And once we saw the pictures we knew we made the right choice with Adam.
As you know the wedding day can get pretty stressful, especially for us brides, but not with this guy by your side! He takes control of the day and timeline. He makes you laugh when you are stressed. He makes sure you and your S.O. have some special alone time together and even guards the door to the bridal suite so no one disturbs you :) He puts his all into your wedding and more. He even called me the day before the wedding because the forecast was calling for rain. He told me not to stress and if it rains he will make it work. We got married in Malibu on the beach and wanted our photos by the ocean. Adam was fully prepared for rain and brought an umbrella for us to take the cutest pictures with. I put all my trust in Adam and he made our wedding much more than I could ever have dreamed of!
And then came the pictures....OMG Adam is so talented. We couldn't believe how gorgeous and artistic our photos were. The way he captured the day and turned it into our own love story was beyond incredible.
Adam, you were truly the best decision we made and we consider you a good friend! We love you Adam and we are forever grateful!! Love, The Jebbias
Adam is so creative, artistic, professional and captured our wedding's most special moments !!
He is so easy to work with and his personality and humor made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. He brought out and captured our true personalities and not just posed pictures.
Thank you Adam, you are AWESOME!
There was one thing for my wedding I knew hands down I NEEDED to be perfect and that was the photos (because those are truly the one thing you take away from the wedding), and Adam Kent exceeded and surpassed mine and my husband's expectations.
From the moment we had our first consult with Adam, we felt like he was a friend we've known forever. He took the time, and listened to me and my husband, and got to understand us.
We shot with him first for our engagement photos and they are BY FAR the BEST engagement photos I have seen (and I've been seeing a lot because I'm at the age where EVERYONE is getting married). He came along on this journey of engagement all the way to our big day.
On our wedding day, the pressure was on... not only did I have the request of fitting all 32 immediate family members in one photo, but it started raining! Out of nowhere, rain started pouring! Okay, you can imagine as a bride I was freaking out and our families were pressuring us to move our ceremony indoors (because it was set outdoors), and the whole reason my husband and I chose our venue was because of the outdoor ceremony. And there we stood, getting soaked and our families telling us to move it indoors, and Adam took my husband and I aside and said some glorious words of advice, "This is YOUR wedding, you two do what YOU want." And it was there decided, everyone was going to get soaked. And let me tell you how amazing our photos came out.
Adam is creative and fun. A passion just simply flows from him and then shows in your pictures from your day. He has great input and ideas. Seriously, if you want to see what Adam can create I will gladly show you how fantastic and special my photos are. It brings such a joy to see my photos and I honestly have not been able to stop looking at them, and my instagram has been flooded with them since October (@amber_babylon).
Adam is now a member of our crazy family because he went on this journey with us and I can't wait to get pregnant so he can help create more unforgettable memories of our next step in life.
Seriously Adam, the Elrod's (Amber & Toscan) LOVE YOU!!!
Adam not only was our photographer, he became a friend. He held our amazing moments close to his heart and mind and created a miracle. Adam made taking pictures fun again, he held his professionalism through any tough moments we had. He was on time and the coolest thing was when you think he is missing the moment, he pops out of no where and snaps it, looks at you and says, don't worry Rich, I got it!!! Thanks Adam! I recommended you hands down!
There are no words to describe how amazing Adam Kent is! He was, by far, the best vendor I worked with for my wedding. He's extremely professional and fun--makes everyone (including my husband, who hates being photographed) comfortable and looking their best in front of the camera. We were working with a budget for the wedding, but knew we needed to splurge a bit for our photographer. Adam's services were worth way more than what we paid. I really enjoyed working with Adam and look forward to recommending him to all of my family and friends in need of an excellent and talented photographer. Thank you, Adam! It was truly a pleasure.
Adam did such an amazing job with our wedding pictures! People are still complimenting them months later! He made everyone feel so comfortable, and it never felt hard to smile around him. He definitely had a way of lightening up the mood and making us laugh! We never felt like we were actually taking pictures all day, because mostly he just captured the moments without us having to try. And whenever something came up (like when our driver left us, or our coordinator forgot to get the sparklers ready), he took charge and was on top of it! We just loved his wife Lacey too! She was so helpful with ideas, and she really took care of us too. They really made it hard for us to choose which pictures to hang up because there were just so many that we loved. And watching the awesome slide show he made us still makes me a little teary, as if the wedding was yesterday.. If we or any of our friends/family need pictures, Adam's our guy!
I was lucky enough to have met Adam a few years ago at my good friend's wedding; I was a bridesmaid and he was the photographer. Right away I thought he was great! Not only did he take beautiful photos of my girlfriend's wedding, but he made everyone feel at ease in front of the camera. I've been in several wedding and have discovered not all photographers have this gift, surprisingly. Fast forward several years, it was time for me to find a photographer for my wedding. I didn't even bother shopping around, I knew I wanted to work with Adam again. And, I'm so thankful he was available!
From beginning to end, Adam was wonderful to with. He responded to all of my emails, texts, and calls quickly. He was flexible with my crazy schedule. He helped me pick the location for our engagement shoot. He helped bring my camera shy husband out of his shell (not an easy task). And when I threw him some (unintentional) curve balls, he even rolled with those like they were no big deal. On the day of the wedding, he was fabulous. Once again, he put everyone at ease and was making friends left and right with my guests and wedding party. Everyone loved him! I had so many people comment (and still comment over a month later) how nice and talented Adam was.
As for the photos, I can sum those up in one word: PERFECT! Seriously, Adam captured everything; even the silly moments, which I loved! I'm so happy with every photo he took. I could not have asked for anything more. He is so talented. I highly, HIGHLY recommend him to anyone; you will not be disappointed.
Adam truly captured our wedding's most special moments. We've gotten endless compliments on both our engagement and wedding pictures and I couldn't recommend him enough! His personality and humor made us feel comfortable in front of the camera which brought out and captured our true selves not just posed pictures.
Adam Kent was fun, professional, and you can just tell that he loves his job. Our wedding photos were perfect! We had a winter wedding in Malibu and he did a fantastic job capturing some beautiful romantic shots with a vintage feel, which was exactly the overall vibe of our wedding.
We met Adam for the first time through a referral. He was our first photographer and we will never look elsewhere. Adam delivered magic in his photography. His imagination brings out such phenomenal photography in the end. Adam practically hosted our wedding with such fantastic organization, as well as catching the best memories. We appreciate all of your help Adam and thank you for making our day an incredible experience!
