Claire Xu Photography

Claire is very accommodating, professional and talented. She was able to fit our schedule and come to our chosen spots for pictures out in Malibu. I enjoyed working with her and love my pictures.

Preliminary: Claire was professional and easy to get in contact with even while moving. She went over our schedule like someone who obviously knows what she's doing. She scoped out our venue thoroughly beforehand, and even attended our rehearsal to make sure that she knew the lighting. That's attention to detail! She also agreed to meet with us online since my fiance and I are in different states, which made things much easier. Main: There was a blackout at our wedding, and the museum was on emergency power. As you can guess, this meant VERY CRAPPY LIGHTING. Claire, who had shown up a couple hours early (before we were even paying her for) , did her absolute best. Her assistant and her were so enthusiastic and seemed to love, just, taking photography. This didn't seem like just another shoot to her-this seemed like something she loved! And they were tireless, shooting everything that went on! Oh, and that crappy lighting? The pictures we have seen so far are ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS. Her portfolio does not lie. She takes her job and craft seriously, and I highly recommend her!

I am so glad to have Claire to be my wedding photographer because she is such a responsible and easy-going person to work with. Claire spent the time to visit my wedding venue as well as its surroundings to search for great locations for photo shooting prior to my wedding. Also, she took the initiative to communicate with me and my husband for our special shooting needs and desires on our wedding day. Her passion and professional sense in photography can absolutely transform a simple scene or shot into a splendid, artistic and memorable picture. During the process of retouching our photos, she is so patient with our picky requests and willing to fulfill our needs. Look no further, if you are searching a wedding photographer with great talent and professional services, highly recommend ClaireXu Photography.

Claire was the photographer for our pre-wedding photos. She is very professional and sincere to her clients. She took our opinions very seriously, discussed with us many times to make sure what kind of photo we wanted, and also provided useful suggestions. She was very responsible through the whole process, from visiting photo shoot locations, the shooting to final photo retouchment, always with nice attitude. Highly recommended!

Claire is a very professional and nice photographer. When taking photos, she always suggests us good poses. In the post-processing phase, she never complain our requests. In general, we are quite satisfied with her work.

Claire and her partner were great photographers for our wedding. They were very helpful and did extensive prep work with us, visiting the site, providing options for photography locations and showing us many photography samples. During the wedding, they took many pictures and turned it around to us very quickly! Great to work with and great photos! Memories for a lifetime.

Claire did an amazing job for our pre-wedding photos in Nov., 2011. The photo shoots were a lot of fun and easy to do since Claire gave us great direction. Pictures exceeded our expectations and came out looking fabulous. Our friends couldn't stop asking about the photos. Highly recommended!

Claire Xu is a very professional and responsive photographer. She has good sense of beauty, smart use of light, and knows how to present your story and love from the prettiest angle. The pictures that she shoot are much more beautiful and gorgeous than the scene itself. I also appreciate the high flexibility that she has. We ended very late the first day and the time actually had been out of the range that she originally agreed to serve. However she still paid greatest patience and shoot high quality photo for us in the late night. I invited her to shoot more the other day due to the impressive professionalism and responsiveness she has. I definitely recommend her to be your photographer--the one who knows how to grab the most touching scene and know how to present your beauty and story. I believe she will be a star in this field!

Claire is a very professional photographer and very easy going, flexible and easy to communicate with. She took lots of pictures which are exactly the style I want and she's good at catching sweet moments of the couple. Highly recommended!
