WE LOVED WORKING WITH CHAR AND TONY!! From the first conversation, Char was interested in understanding how we wanted to bring our values into our wedding day so that she and Tony ...
could think about how best to capture those moments. They provided lots of valuable material on their best practices for helping things to go smoothly day-of–gleaned from their vast experience as wedding photographers. On the day of our wedding they showed up early and were able to take the time to capture added special moments of us getting ready. They went above and beyond to make sure they got all the little moments we wanted plus all the ones that they knew we would want but didn’t think about.
They are true artists and have an amazing eye for detail and capturing just the right shot. Our photos came out beautifully–they look like they could be in a magazine. It is clear how much they care about their craft, and even more, how much they care about their clients. I’m camera shy but I felt so at ease working with them. They are warm, disarming, and brought so much joy and fun to the photo shoot. We cannot recommend them highly enough.
We feel SO lucky to have found Char and Tony!! From our first zoom call, we knew they fully understood the vibe we wanted for our wedding day. Char met up with us in Oakland for ou...
r engagement shoot, and she was so laid back yet professional and knowledgeable–we felt totally comfortable in front of her lens! She stayed in touch in the year between our engagement shoot and our wedding, always sending timely tips about the whole wedding planning process.
When the night before our wedding arrived and we were celebrating with some of our out of town guests at the hotel, who wandered in but Tony! He and Char just happened to be staying where we hosted our welcome party. They went on to capture some photos/videos of the celebration, which really drives home that Char and Tony are totally committed to their couples. That translated into the next day, when they were both SO on top of everything. We got some sneak peeks the day after the wedding (which were amazing!!!), and our final gallery showed every moment. Char and Tony captured our day so beautifully–we will cherish these photos forever. Thank you both!!
Char and Tony are the DREAM TEAM. Truly, we could not dreamed of a better duo to have shared our special day with! Not only are they incredibly talented but they took the time to g...
et to know us and what we wanted, which was more natural in the moment memories and they nailed it!! It helped me feel so at ease knowing I had Char right there to take control if need be to get the most incredible photos. I usually feel awkward in front of the camera but they made us so comfortable and confident! And not just in front of the lenz but overall! Tony would continuously make sure we had drinks and food after the ceremony which just showed how thoughtful & how much they care throughout the day! Plus, allllll of our friends and family absolutely adored them as well! Everyone raved about how incredible they were, even if it was a quick encounter. You’ll know when you meet them that they love, love and they’ll be sure to capture every moment! They were the BEST addition to our wedding and I feel like finding them was meant to be🤍 I am forever grateful to you both and I can’t wait to see all of the final results!
We actually found Char through Symboll, who were booked our photography and videography package through. Char absolutely nailed our photos and made us feel so comfortable. My husba...
nd hates photos, so believe me that was a feat! Tony came to assist and did everything from holding our champagne to capturing candids of our dog! They are the dream team!
From the first conversation that we had with Char and Tony, we knew we would be working with the very best vendors for our wedding. They are genuine, professional, thoughtful, fun,...
and detail-oriented people who immediately put us at ease. We knew they had our backs! For our engagement shoot, it really felt like we were hanging out with a couple of our friends, while we were able to share some of our love story and they captured special moments. On our wedding day, Char and Tony hired an additional photographer (as a contingency, in case COVID or a different emergency struck). The team worked SO hard on our wedding day. They stuck with us for over 12 hours, made us laugh, took so many wonderful photos of the big and the intimate moments, and always checked in with us to make sure we had everything that we needed. I honestly could not imagine this day without Char on our side. I am so grateful that we had such a wonderful team who definitely went above and beyond the call to make our day the best ever. Thank you, Char and Tony!
Our wedding was on Nov 5th, 2021 and we had Char and, her husband, Tony as our photographers. They are absolutely fantastic as they were able to find the right angles and details t...
hat would encompass the ambiance of the wedding within our photos which we are able to look at even now and feel like it was yesterday. The personalities of these two are beyond positive, you aren't hiring only photographers who take pictures but you are also bringing in two individuals who elevate the experience to the point where at the end of the night you feel like you’ve known them for years. We were very lucky to have them at our wedding and I’m glad to now consider these two as friends.
