Bo Shim

she made us and our wedding party/family feel super at ease throughout the day while taking photos and capturing all of the special moments! Our wedding was initially supposed to be in July and we ended up having it in October (due to Covid) and all along the way, she was super flexible and understanding and helped us to keep calm and guide us through the wedding day photo schedule and process! Thank you, Bo!!

d work. Our first experience with her was during our engagement shoot, and from the way she directed the shots we could tell that she knew what she was doing and that she puts the best effort into making sure she will take the highest quality photos possible. In the end, they came out amazing, and we were very satisfied with her shots! Not only that, she is very easy to work with, responds in a timely manner, and delivers you the photos very quickly! We would highly recommend Bo to anyone who is looking for someone with a lot of talent and experience!

, but she makes you feel so comfortable when being photographed. during our ceremony and reception she and her assistant got wonderful shots, but I wouldn't have even known they were there. they were both extremely professional and unobtrusive while getting the most beautiful photos. thank you so much for capturing our perfect day!

tos feel unique and different from the wedding photos we had seen of our other married friends, and from other photographers we had looked at during the vetting process. During the planning process she was extremely easy to work with, and understanding too! We were both in really busy work periods leading up to the wedding and were unable to fit in our engagement shoot so she was great in working with us around that. I do wish we could have fit that in as I know the photos would have turned out amazing! During our day, her and her assistant were fantastic, and just a pleasure to be around while they captured our special day. Barely anyone even noticed them taking photos at our church ceremony! Our one request was that we could enjoy most of our cocktail hour, and they were able to stay on schedule and get all the bridal party, wedding party, and family shots in before then, so we could mingle with our guests. We didn't get a videographer and I am actually really glad that we didn't pay for one because when I look at our wedding photos, they perfectly tell the story of our special day. I can't thank Bo enough for capturing our wedding day so elegantly and I hope I get to work with her again in the future for another special life event. I highly recommend her to all bride-to-be's!!

e artistic style of her photography and the attention to details. In terms of wedding planning and execution, she was always accessible via phone call, text or email and responds very quickly. At no point were we ever concerned or worried about Wedding Day because she follows a very organized and detailed schedule that even allows her to arrive early to begin shooting. We would totally recommend Bo to anyone looking for a photographer! You’ll be obsessed with the final photos <3

bout Bo!

s quick to answer any questions or concerns you may have which is helpful in making the wedding process a whole lot less stressful. Prior to meeting Bo, my husband and I were worried how our photos would turn out only because we’re the most awkward couple ever and cannot for the life of us pose properly for photos, but she made the whole process so fun and relaxed that any smiles or laughs she captured were all truly genuine! Our engagement and wedding photos turned out so so beautiful – better than we could have ever imagined. All our friends and families were raving about how beautiful they all came out. We even had friends who had already gotten married comment on how they wish they booked Bo as their wedding photographer instead because of how gorgeous our photos turned out. How crazy is that?! I mean… I would have felt the same way if I didn’t have Bo as our wedding photographer too! So many people have reached out to us about her services and we can not recommend her enough! We honestly have no regrets and would totally book her again if we could do it all over. My husband and I feel so lucky to have had her for our wedding and have nothing but great things to say about her. She’s truly amazing in all aspects and we’re forever grateful for her work.

't able to squeeze in our engagement photos. On the day, she was incredible. She knew exactly where to go, was calm throughout when everyone decided they wanted group photos after the ceremony and ate into the sunset hour. She and her assistant worked seamlessly, was never intruding, and took gorgeous photos and I will forever be grateful.

ot of wedding photographers that we were looking at had a darker, moodier look and we really wanted a light, happy, bright look to our photos. After talking with Bo and looking at more of her work, we knew we wanted to go with her. Bo and Eileen were our two photographers on the day of the wedding - they both and such a calm, professional, yet happy vibe that made us and our wedding parties feel excited yet calm and taken care of. Bo's direction was perfect - helpful, direct, but friendly and not too "pose-y." We were a little behind when it was time for family photos (not their fault at all - our flowers were late which held up some of the portraits), but Bo and Eileen called out and took photos quickly and efficiently. We have a large complicated family so it was a lot of people to wrangle! We got our preview photos two days after the wedding and they are beautiful. I can't stop looking at them. I would highly recommend Bo & Bashful Captures to any of my friends getting married! She was truly wonderful and I can't say enough good things.

ails for me in terms of my wedding, she was very helpful going over the timeline with me, which was super helpful. So in the beginning I didn’t want to do a ‘first look’ because I thought it would take away any special feelings my husband will have if he saw me before, but after meeting Bo it was one less wedding detail I didn’t have to worry about, she advised not only it won’t take away any special feelings, it will ensure more intimate photos of us together. I got married 8.18.18. Bo & her assistant showed up & went right to work, they were very easy, friendly and calming to me, the day of. My fiancé & I were kinda clueless when it came to posing for pictures for our big day ( didn’t want to look stiff) nor did we want our pictures to look to ‘cookie cutter’ but after some helpful coaching from Bo... it was all good. 🤗

and we blew them up to display at our wedding. We spoke several times before the wedding date to go over the details so I didn't feel lost in the process. Bo and her 2nd shooter were amazing on my wedding day! They came early to the hotel we were getting ready at and captured all of the pre-wedding moments with my girls and separately with my husband and his groomsman. It was a long day! Pictures at 3 different locations but Bo was super supportive guiding us from shoot to shoot. The USB with our pictures were delivered to us in a beautiful glass box. Bo did an amazing job at capturing so many genuine, natural smiles and laughs between my husband and I, not the posed/forced looks I was afraid was going to happen. The pictures also have a consistent airy and romantic feel to them, love that you can tell that each photo is professionally taken. I hope to work with her again!

re gorgeous so I booked her right away. My husband and I are not great with pictures and don’t really enjoy taking them, but I booked a session for engagement photos so we could get some practice. I’m so glad I did! In our 1 hour session, Bo had us walk around Central Park, it was very easy and relaxed and she got some great shots that we used for our save the dates. On the day of the wedding, Bo was a dream. My bridesmaids wished they had booked her for their weddings, too! She has an easy and way about her that’s calming, even on such a hectic and high pressure day. She truly captured the stunning venue, and took a wide variety of both staged and also so many candid moments throughout the night. I feel so grateful and lucky I was able to work with Bo. Having a great photographer is so important, and I’m so happy I have so many beautiful pictures to remember the day, the memories and to make me smile. I feel like I really did something right hiring Bo! I would recommend her to ANY bride in a heartbeat. :) XOXO

s extremely professional, and her style was EXACTLY what I envisioned for wedding photos. Months prior to our wedding, we had multiple phone conversations about the style and types of shots we wanted to include. On the day of our wedding, Bo’s team moved quickly to capture all of our desired shots (plus more). I expected to receive our photos about 5 months after our wedding, but I was pleasantly surprised to receive them after only two months. She sent me a beautiful glass box with rose gold trim that perfectly matched our wedding theme. The box contained a handwritten thank you card, usb stick, and a huge stack of prints - DID NPT EXPECT THAT AT ALL! I was so impressed with the quality of her photos, thoughtful package of photos, and timely delivery. I only wish that I lived closer to the NY area so that I can use her again for future events and recommend her to others. Thank you, Bo.

ars of wedding photography experience which is evident in her work. I spoke to several other references who all loved working with her and had nothing but great things to say! After my wedding day this past May, I would definitely have to agree. Wedding days can be stressful but I was so grateful to have chosen Bo as my photographer. Throughout the whole process, she was highly responsive and available to answer any questions/concerns I had. Thanks to her organization, she helped me put together a wedding outline to detail the days events. She was sweet, calm, experienced, flexible, and really spent the time to walk us through the day. Her professional demeanor really put us at ease and we really had a great time being photographed so the pictures came out really natural. I HIGHLY recommend her for anyone. We really LOVE our wedding photos and cannot ask for a better photographer!

n't wait to book her again for the future! Highly recommended!

was very helpful throughout the process and made sure to make a list with me of moments i wanted to make sure to capture on my wedding day. On the wedding day it did get a little hectic, but Bo was so professional and detailed. Later on I was worried certain moments weren't caught and I couldn't even remember if I took solo shots outside! But Bo was able to quickly turn around preview photos for us within a week of our wedding and i was relieved to see that Bo did get solo shots and detailed shots that I forgot about. Everyone who has seen our preview photos has raved about them and said how they look like a fairy tale. I can't wait to see the rest but had to give Bo at bashful captures a raving review for her work.

, and romantic. But meeting her was when I knew she was the perfect photographer for us. She instantly puts you at ease, and gives just enough direction so you don't feel lost. Love her and our wedding pictures! Thank you, Bo!

our large families calmly and respectfully. She remained discrete during the event but was always there in case we wanted to grab her for a photo. The ultimate evidence is in the photos--there are too many too choose from! We would recommend Bashful Captures to everyone!
