We had the honor of working with Ditto for our city hall ceremony, a photo session for my grandparents, and most recently for our wedding ceremony and reception. He has blown us aw...
ay with his amazing personality, talent, and efficiency each time!
Not only does Ditto always show up early, his talented eye spots the most beautiful parts of each venue. Despite us being camera shy, he effortlessly communicates how to pose and makes it feel so natural. We were blown away by all of his stunning photos, it had everything! He captured stunning close portrait shots, wide angles showing the beauty of the venue, and even navigated the chaos of our large families for the group photos with such ease.
His sneak peeks are always so fast and loaded with highlights, many more than we expected. His speed made it easy to share photos with our families early on when people were still in town. And his final photo collections each time are a beautiful reflection of his style: elegant and dreamy.
Ditto is by far one of the best investments we made for both our city hall ceremony and formal reception/wedding. We are in love with his work and would not hesitate to recommend Ditto to capture your special day.
I can't believe I'm finally writing this review, but it's long overdue! We had the pleasure of working with Ditto Dianto for our first-ever planned elopement photoshoot at San Fran...
cisco City Hall, and it truly surpassed all our expectations.
From start to finish, Ditto was absolutely amazing. The editing of our photos was spectacular, and he guided us through poses that felt natural and fluid—none of that stiff, awkward posing! The final images looked like they were straight out of an editorial magazine, and we couldn't be happier with how they turned out.
Ditto went above and beyond to ensure we got the best shots, knowing every specific area that offered stunning angles of the building and its beautiful architecture. The lighting he captured was simply incredible!
Communication with Ditto was seamless; he was super quick to respond and provided prompt answers to all our questions. He also offered fantastic recommendations for hair and makeup artists, as well as floral arrangements, which made the whole planning process so much easier.
Working with Ditto was truly a dream, and if I ever have another occasion for a photoshoot, I wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again. He is a hidden gem in the sea of Bay Area photographers, and I can't recommend him enough!
Thank you, Ditto, for capturing such special moments for us!
One of the best decisions we made for our wedding was hiring Ditto as our photographer. He is such a kind and talented person and he treats everyone with kindness and patience whil...
e being the utmost professional. He is calm, flexible and has a sense of humor, which made him a joy to be around on our wedding day, he was a great part of our vendor team and made the day go so smoothly. His photography style is romantic, beautiful, bright and airy - his photos are ones that you could find in a magazine and you would love to display in your home. For our engagement shoot a year prior to the wedding, Ditto was open to collaborating on finding a good venue and timing for the shoot. Working with Ditto over those few hours, we became very comfortable with him and saw the amazing results of that shoot (which we used for our save the dates) and it gave us so much confidence and comfort in what to expect for our wedding date.
On the wedding day, Ditto and his second photographer met us at the hotel for getting ready photos and then traveled to the venue and spent the day with us, capturing the ceremony and reception. They captured all the great moments, big and small, and moved around gracefully and were able to coordinate with our videographer. They took the lead and directed us for the formal photo moments but also found a way to capture the more candid and genuine moments. Ditto delivered a gallery of sneak peaks a few days after the wedding, which was so fun to see (such a fast turnaround!) and allowed us to share some photos right away. His final wedding gallery is hosted online, which makes it easy to share with family and friends, and it had so many incredible photos (over a thousand photos!) which will help us fondly remember the day. I know we will cherish these photos for a very long time.
We absolutely loved working with Ditto and love the photos that he has captured for us so beautifully. We cannot thank Ditto enough and would highly recommend him!
It’s been about two months since my husband and I had a small city hall wedding at San Francisco City Hall and we were lucky enough to have Ditto as our wonderful photographer! We ...
LOVE all of our photos and could not be happier with how they all turned out. Looking back at that day, we say all the time that Ditto is our favorite wedding vendor! I found Ditto on Instagram and when I looked up his photography portfolio (gorgeous, airy, romantic fine-arts style!) and reviews (universally positive), it was a pretty easy decision to reach out to him.
From the very beginning, he stood out. He responded to my initial inquiry super quickly, and answered any additional questions I had really quickly as well. His prices are very fair for his excellent skills and seamless customer service. You can tell that he is very detail oriented, but also really chill. Ditto is never pushy, and everything feels easy with him.
On the day of, he expertly steered us around City Hall to get a bunch of really great shots on the Grand Staircase, even though there were a lot of other couples there too. He was able to direct us with simple instructions that were easy to follow. My husband and I are pretty awkward(!) when taking photos but Ditto put us at ease. We asked him for a mix of posed and candid photos and a whole list of family group photos and Ditto was able to deliver what we hoped for! He also kept track of our timing so that we could fit in as much photography as possible, while still getting to our wedding appointment on time.
He also delivered a bunch of sneak peek photos on the SAME night of our elopement! He said he would get us the full gallery 2-3 weeks from our elopement date, and sure enough, right at 2 weeks, we received all of our beautiful pictures! We are so happy with these happy and gorgeous photos that we’ll appreciate for the rest of our lives.
Do yourself a favor! Just book Ditto! It will be the best decision you make in all of your wedding planning. I can’t stop telling people about him because I want them to have a great experience before/on/after their wedding day too!
It's been almost 6 months since we've been married and we are so grateful for Ditto for making our dream wedding come true!
From the moment we first met Ditto back in early Feb 20...
23, we were so impressed by his "down-to-earth" charm and genuine sincerity. We did some research beforehand and were surprised to learn that Ditto was a former chef, which explained his impeccable attention to detail, eye for visuals and staging, and craft of creating a one-of-a-kind experience with natural beauty, fine art, and romance. We knew right away that he was the photographer we wanted to work with and we were so excited to have him take our engagement and wedding pictures!
Ditto has always delivered and exceeded our expectations for our engagement and wedding pictures. His warmth, professionalism, and graciousness to accommodate our requests to include more time spent on taking pictures with our family and reception table side visits made our big day so special and memorable. He even helped us with natural poses when taking pictures to make our experience more comfortable and fun! Our parents, extended family, and longtime friends have been equally impressed with the pictures he's captured of us and we often hear them rave about how beautiful and stunning they are!
Thank you so much again Ditto for making our wedding truly unforgettable. Ben and I are so thankful for all of the moments of joy and love you've captured of us!
It’s been about 6 months since my husband and I got eloped at San Francisco City Hall and worked with Ditto and let me just say with no exaggeration that we look at our beautiful p...
hotos EVERY SINGLE DAY! Choosing Ditto was the absolute best decision we could have made. He responded to my inquiry extremely fast with all the information I needed to know and provided his contact information for our convenience. Upon the day of our wedding it was so easy to get in touch with him and he gave us all the directions as to where to park and meet him. As soon as we started walking up to him he began snapping our photos! Ditto truly made our wedding day special as he was also our witness! He was incredibly kind, patient, and knowledgeable. He did everything he could from fixing our positioning, stray hairs, giving us instruction, to running back and forth to get all of the shots in all locations of the beautiful City Hall and surrounding area! We were truly amazed and felt so fortunate to have chosen such a phenomenal photographer and person to be with us on our special day. The day after our wedding Ditto had already sent us around a 30 photo sneak peek and we were in utter shock at how breathtaking the photos were! The photos captured not only the beautiful scenery, but truly caught a moment in time and our emotions in every shot. We can not thank Ditto enough for making our wedding such a memorable and enjoyable experience as well as leaving us with the heartfelt memories and photos we will adore for a lifetime. If you are thinking of booking Ditto, I would absolutely do it. You will not regret it!!!!
Title: Unforgettable Elopement Captured Perfectly by Ditto at SF City Hall
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
We cannot express enough gratitude for the exceptional experience we had working with Ditto as ou...
r photographer for our elopement photo session at SF City Hall. From start to finish, Ditto exceeded our expectations and captured the essence of our special day beautifully.
Our journey with Ditto began when our friends, who had previously taken stunning engagement photos at SF City Hall, referred us to him. The photographs spoke for themselves, and we knew we had to reach out. Our initial inquiry through Ditto's website was met with a prompt response within a day. Despite our last-minute request, he made himself available and was incredibly accommodating.
Ditto's professionalism shone through every step of the process. His detailed emails outlined pricing transparently and clearly defined the shots that would be included. The straightforward process, coupled with a seamless payment via a well-structured contract, assured us that we were in capable hands.
On the day of the photoshoot, we encountered unforeseen difficulties with our Uber, causing delays in reaching SF City Hall. Despite the hiccup, Ditto exhibited exceptional understanding and patience, waiting for us without a hint of frustration. This flexibility and empathy immediately put us at ease and set the tone for a stress-free experience.
Throughout the shoot, Ditto's expertise became evident. He guided us to the most picturesque locations at SF City Hall, ensuring we captured the perfect shots on the grand staircase before the crowds arrived. Ditto's knowledge of the venue and keen eye for detail showcased his years of experience in the field. His ability to direct us in various couples poses resulted in breathtaking images that we will cherish forever.
We are genuinely grateful for Ditto's dedication to making our elopement memorable. His talent, professionalism, and genuine passion for his work made the entire experience unforgettable. Choosing Ditto as our photographer was undoubtedly one of the best decisions we made for our special day. If you're looking for a photographer who goes above and beyond, Ditto is the one!
Ditto is absolutely amazing! He helped my husband & I with both our engagement photos and our wedding photos. I am so grateful that he was able to help us capture such beautiful me...
mories. The pictures from our wedding are breath-taking and make my husband & I so happy. We are so thankful for Ditto. If anyone in the Bay Area is looking for a wedding/engagement photographer, I cannot recommend Ditto enough. He was extremely professional, kind, and flexible. Not to mention EXTREMELY talented. Every person who sees our photos is stunned with how beautiful they are. Ditto-- Henry and I are so thankful for you and your photos. We are thrilled with the results.
We had a great experience with Ditto from start to finish. We initially communicated via e-mail and video call, and he answered our many questions promptly and courteously. He help...
ed us with our pre-wedding photoshoot as well as our wedding; both times we had a great time laughing and chatting with him throughout the sessions, making us feel really at ease and our poses/smiles even brighter. Our photos all was delivered timely and turned out great and we received many compliments on them. We recommend Ditto to any couples getting married out there. You won't regret working with him!
Ditto was a pleasure to work with. First off, he is the nicest guy, and his positive energy makes taking photos fun. I booked him for our wedding, and his package comes with a gift...
ed engagement session. All of our photos came out stunning. He has a great eye for what makes the best shot. He also guided my husband and I on how to pose which was greatly appreciated. Ditto is very efficient at his job. He captures the photos quickly so you still get to enjoy your wedding and not feel like the entire time was being taken taking photos. He was very responsive to emails and questions that I had. He also helped us come up with a schedule. He provided information on how long first look would take, when to do the flatlays, how long bridal portraits take, what time to take sunset photos, etc. Ditto provided us with the sneak peak photos 1 day after the wedding which was incredible! The entire wedding photo album was sent to us within 1 month of the wedding. I would highly recommend Ditto to anyone looking for a skilled photographer with excellent communication skills and a great attitude.
Ditto is incredible to work with! He was the first vendor we booked and we couldn't be happier to have him capture our engagement/wedding day. He's friendly, knowledgeable, adaptab...
le and just so talented at what he does! We don't ever really take professional photos so his prompting made it so much easier for us to know what to do. On the wedding day, I was running late and he was able to adjust the timeline to still get all the photos on our shot list. I'm obsessed with our wedding photos and only wish that we took even more photos that day! The best wedding photographer and just a great guy all around :)
My husband and I were blown away by Ditto, his talents, and professionalism! If you are looking for a very well-seasoned and talented photographer in the Bay Area, look no further....
He made us feel incredibly comfortable, gave plenty of guidance and direction, and made our wedding day so memorable. He also provided dozen of sneak peeks photos on the very same day we were married! We 110% recommend Ditto; you will not regret it!
As a meticulous couple in search of the perfect wedding photographer, we embarked on a journey to find someone who could capture our special moments in a way that transcended tradi...
tional photography. After interviewing over three dozen candidates and reviewing over a hundred portfolios, we were fortunate enough to discover Ditto.
From the very beginning, Ditto's fine arts style stood out among the rest. His photographs possess a certain majestic quality that transforms them into timeless pieces of art. While he may have been more reserved than other photographers we considered, his portfolio spoke volumes about his ability to capture the essence of any occasion.
On the day of our city hall wedding, Ditto's professionalism and knowledge of the venue immediately put us at ease. His sweet and easygoing nature instantly calmed our nerves, and he effortlessly formed a connection with our parents, creating an atmosphere of warmth and calmness. He skillfully provided posing instructions that were helpful without being overbearing, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the moment.
City hall was bustling with dozens of brides that day, yet Ditto remained patient, determined to capture the best shots possible. While many photographers we interviewed had time constraints of 1-2 hours for similar shoots, Ditto exceeded our expectations by staying at city hall for almost 3 hours, ensuring that every cherished memory was preserved. His expertise in understanding lighting and his familiarity with the space proved invaluable, as he effortlessly guided us to the best spots.
What truly astonished us about our experience with Ditto was the speed at which he delivered our photographs. 12 hours after our wedding, we were astounded to find over 50 meticulously edited photos waiting for us in our inbox. Each image was bathed in his signature style—light, bright, and crisp. The perfection of the lighting and posing, with no one else in the background, left us in awe (the photos really looked nothing like the crazy hectic environment we had experienced.)
Just two weeks later, Ditto completed the full gallery, and once again, we were amazed by his work. The depth and emotion captured in each image were beyond compare, making it evident that we had indeed chosen the best in the business. We were also so surprised when Ditto offered to print our favorite photos on fine arts paper. We know that these prints will be a stunning addition to our welcome table and then, later on, our home.
Looking ahead to our wedding next year, we are filled with excitement and confidence, knowing that Ditto will be there to document our special day. Ditto is not simply a photographer; he really is an artist who can transform ordinary moments into extraordinary memories. If you're searching for someone who will go above and beyond to capture the essence of your most important moments, look no further than Ditto. Trust us, you'll be in the hands of a 1000-star photographer.
My wife and I highly recommend Ditto as your wedding photographer! The final photos for both our engagement shoot and wedding came out beautifully and he was able to provide previe...
ws within 48hrs of each event (super fast)!
Ditto is very professional but also very friendly and easy to work with. He was extremely quick to respond whenever we contacted him and he was generally very communicative and organized. He gave us good advice and feedback for our day-of-schedule but also found ways to work around our needs and requests.
Overall, just really high quality service and work!
Our experience with Ditto was amazing. He is super friendly, easy going, punctual and super organized! I found Ditto on Instagram and really loved his soft, bright, airy style. We ...
booked him right away after having our intro call with him.
One of the best things Ditto offers is an engagement shoot that is included with the photography package. He highly recommended that we do it, so we can get used to taking photos with him and not feel awkward in front of the camera before our actual wedding day. Honestly I am so happy we did this. Ditto made me and my husband feel super comfortable, and we had a lot of fun doing our engagement shoot. And the pictures turned out GORGEOUS, and we knew our wedding photos will be even more so! The day of our wedding, Ditto and his second shooter Vanessa were very punctual, professional and guided us throughout the day. He also accommodated my wishes to make sure we had time to mingle and be present with our guests throughout the day. He knew how to direct us to take the best pictures and best locations at our venue and still made the process super fun for us. The best part is that the next day after our wedding, Ditto shared a sneak peek of our photos!! They were all so beautiful and everything we could have wanted! 4 weeks later as he promised, we got our full gallery! There are so many pictures we want to print and hang in our home, we love them so much! All in all, Ditto is amazing! You won't regret working with him! Thank you Ditto!
I hired Ditto for my wedding two months before my big day. Our previous photographer bailed and had double booked us. I frantically looked for a new photographer and Ditto was reco...
mmended by a photographer I had reached out to. I am so glad that our previous photographer fell through! Ditto was extremely professional and easy to work with. Ditto is who you would want to work with - detail oriented, organized, and reliable. Taking professional photos can be awkward but Ditto made me and my husband feel really comfortable and natural in front of the camera. I appreciate a photographer that tells us to fix a tie or move a strand of hair, and Ditto really took the time to make sure our shots were great. The very next day after our wedding Ditto sent a TON of sneak peeks! It was basically a bunch shots from each moment of the wedding day! My husband and I loved working with Ditto!
We hired Ditto last minute for my brother-in-law's SF City Hall Elopement and he did an AMAZING job! He was so professional, skilled, and kind; we felt so comfortable with him and ...
his direction that we knew the photos were going to be great even before seeing them. He really has an eye for what looks good, and he knew every shot at City Hall to take. The turnaround time for the photos was super fast also. Highly recommend Ditto!
We hired Ditto Dianto Photography to take our engagement photos at Mussel Rock Park in Daly City. Ditto was very professional and kind and helped us feel comfortable even though we...

de me confident in his ability to capture our wedding day and engagement session perfectly! Don’t hesitate to work with Ditto!
Our experience with Ditto Dianto Photography was so wonderful all around! We booked Ditto back in 2019 after he took photos for our friends wedding. He came highly recommended and ...
we're so glad we decided to go with him. Originally our wedding was supposed to take place in August 2020, but due to the pandemic--we had to postpone our big day an entire year. Ditto was understanding and totally willing to work with us on rescheduling his services to our new wedding date.
In our package, he offered an engagement session which we like to call our "practice round." My husband and I are far from photogenic, and we definitely feel awkward when it comes to posing for photos. Nonetheless, Ditto made it so easy for us. He was so fun to work with and made us feel comfortable through our photo sessions. He took a mix of portraits, action shots, wide angles and natural scenery shots. Our engagement photos came out stunning, dreamy and he definitely captured some fairytale moments. The photos far exceeded our expectations and we knew we were in great hands for our wedding.
Ditto has such a natural eye for the beauty in all spaces. He is able to find inspiration from the surroundings and find the perfect shot no matter where we are. We got ready at an airbnb before our wedding and even though the space was far from picture perfect, somehow Ditto was able to capture spaces in the house that made our photos come out so gorgeous! We are so impressed by our photos and get so much joy from reliving the special moments though the lens of Ditto's photos. If we had three words to describe Ditto's photography style, it would be: light, airy and dreamy!
Ditto was hands down our favorite wedding vendor! He's easy-going, professional, talented and everything we wished for in a photographer. We feel so lucky that we were able to work with him. If you're looking for a photographer, look no more. If you're thinking about relying on your friends to capture your special moments with their cameras or smartphones to save some money, believe us--the quality of your photos will not compare to Ditto's work. Choose Ditto and enjoy your special moments on the day-of and for years to come. <3
We cannot say enough good things about working with Ditto!
We first heard of Ditto through a friend, and after reviewing his portfolio we really loved the lighting, colors and en...
tire feel of his photos. Not only is his package budget friendly, Ditto produces AMAZING work and we were so happy and delighted to receive our completed photo gallery for the wedding. All the photos completely exceed our expectation! We got so many compliments from family and friends about how beautiful the photos looked. Some even commented that it could be submitted for a bridal magazine!
The engagement session with Ditto and Vivian was fun. It was our first time taking photos as a couple together and Ditto made us feel comfortable and let us know exactly what to do. Throughout the process, due to the pandemic our wedding date was postponed many times. Ditto remained flexible and communicative and kind!
Prior to our wedding day, we had an hour long review with Ditto on some of the things we wanted to capture on that day, and Ditto had already been prepared with noting some of the landmarks of our venue and we really appreciated how detail-oriented he was, even doing homework prior to the big day!
On the day of the wedding, Ditto was professional, fun, and accomodating throughout the entire 10-hour day. We had specific captures we wanted to do and Ditto went down the entire list and made sure that we hit all of them. He knew exactly where to take us and we were beyond delighted with the resutlts!
We would HIGHLY recommend Ditto and look forward to working with him again through our life's milestones :)! If you are looking for a wedding photographer, LOOK NO FURTHER!!!
It was important to my husband and me that we felt connected to our wedding vendors, and that they genuinely care about their clients. From the moment we met Ditto, we basically ha...
d our mind made up. He turned out to be the one and only photographer we met in person; after inquiring online with a handful of other photographers, we made up our mind to go with Ditto simply because he was so easy going, genuine, and professional.
When we told Ditto we wanted our engagement session to be done at Mount Diablo, he let us know he had not been there before but was open to doing some research on the best spots. Indeed he did, and it turned out to be such a fun day! My husband and I are not necessarily “picture people,” so we were worried we wouldn’t know how to pose or look natural, but Ditto guided us from the get-go. It was fun chatting and getting to know him as well, and our e-session solidified our choice of hiring him as our photographer. We received the edited engagement pictures in just one short week!
On the day of our wedding, Ditto showed up much earlier than agreed upon, and got straight to work. He kept a smile on his face throughout the entire day, and without him knowing it, he actually calmed my nerves throughout the day, especially when I was starting to feel stressed out at one point. I really appreciated that he was adamant that we took pictures up the hill at our venue (he knew of a secret spot and made sure we captured a few photos up there amidst our busy schedule that day). And, as expected from him, we received our edited photos in just one short month following our wedding!
Kevin and I are planning to hire Ditto again in the future for other sessions/events. Thank you for capturing our special day, and we are so happy to have the memories captured on camera to last a lifetime.
Ditto was fantastic to work with! He took amazing light and airy photos, he captured the little details (like wedding favors, bouquets, signs, etc.) that I had spent much time pla...
nning but didn't even get to see on the day of the wedding since I was so busy! Most importantly, he captured the "unscripted" moments of the day perfectly - the candids are my favorite shots of the whole day.
Dianto is the best! He has a great eye for beautiful shots, and gave us directions during both the engagement (included in the wedding package) and the wedding. We got so many com...
pliments on all the amazing pictures he took
Working with Ditto was a wonderful dream. His photo quality is obviously world class.
Prior to hiring Ditto, we met with him over coffee. Even though he's located across the bay, ...
he willingly met with us near our home. We chatted about logistics, he answered all our questions and we got to know each other a bit. We really liked our chat, so we promptly signed the contract and paid the deposit online.
In spring, we reached out to Ditto to book the included engagement 2hr photo session. We agreed to meet him in the afternoon at Point Reyes Station and carpool the rest of the way to the Cypress Tree Tunnel. Unfortunately Bay Area Friday traffic was much heavier than we anticipated and it made us 45 minutes late to our meet up. We message him throughout our drive to apologize and give updated ETAs. Ditto was super nice about it and we were so thankful. During the photoshoot Ditto gave us good modeling directions and kept it comfortable and fun which we also really appreciated since we’d never done a photoshoot like this before. We sent him a mobile tip to show our appreciation for his time and professional services. To our surprise Ditto sent us the finished pictures within a week.
About a week before our wedding, Ditto informed us that our second photographer changed. He, of course, vouched the new photographer and after all was said and done we think she did a good job.
Our wedding was a full day summer event in Newcastle CA. We started the day with traditional Chinese Door Games and a Tea Ceremony. Ditto showed up a little early to scout the venue and despite not scheduling him to shoot that part of the day, he offered to anyway. We took lunch and our MUA arrived and began with the bridesmaids and mothers. Ditto’s second photographer, Bianca, arrived and began taking photos. Ditto brought his stamp, ribbons, and picked beautiful flowers from our venue for the detail shots. We offered them both lunch and vendor meals for dinner. We took bridal party and first look photos, each photographer with either the bride or groom. When it was time for the ceremony processional, Ditto and Bianca took their places. During the ceremony, we barely noticed them. During cocktail hour, they shot photos of all configurations of the bridal party and each family side and went to snap photos of our guests. Ditto previously sent us an example wedding day agenda, complete with photo op suggestions. One of his recommendations was photos at sunset which we decided to try. We had to sneak away during dinner, but these turned out to be some of our favorite photos. As the night wound down, Ditto took pictures of our 1st dances, the cake cutting, bouquet and garter tosses and guest dancing. Ditto ended up staying longer than we booked him for to get all of the classic shots.
Ditto sent us a sneak preview the day after our wedding! And within a few weeks, he sent us the finalized wedding photos and they were truly amazing! Our family and friends loved them and many of our guests commented on the outstanding quality of the photos. We thanked him for everything and tipped again. We highly recommend Ditto. He is a photographer who truly enjoys capturing everything beautiful at your wedding!
Seconding all of what the other reviewers said - Ditto and Danya were amazing at our 50-person outdoor ceremony/indoor reception wedding.
Ditto was very responsive throughout the...
planning process, giving us advice for flowers, and clarifying our vision for the wedding.
Ditto and Danya were at the venue early, had the shot list ready to go -- when we got our portraits taken at a nearby park (~5 mins walk from the venue), we were tight on time, but Ditto did a genius job setting us up in great poses specifically for our 1 foot height difference.
The two also took a lot of great pictures of our guests, and everyone was impressed by how they seemed to capture the best expressions of everyone.
Even with the busy wedding season, Ditto delivered us the gallery on time (4 weeks after the wedding). We love looking at the nearly 1000 photos in the gallery, he did not miss any moments. Looking at the picture feels like reliving the wedding once again.
We are so glad we chose Ditto as our photographer, and recommend him to all our friends.
Could not have picked a better photographer for our wedding day!! We (including all our guests) absolutely love all of the photos he took for us! He got to our place early to take ...
pictures of the details shots. He was so prepared and even brought his own props! He even helped us positions the wedding dress and the bridal party dresses. I had some of the ideas that I wanted for my wedding in mind and he was really open and happy to try them out and made it work for me. Our wedding reception was at a Chinese Restaurant, which is super dark and old looking, but all the pictures in there came out so bright and light. Our ceremony was at a church and he even went there a few days before the wedding to look for spots for pictures. He even sent pictures of the spots to me since I said that I have never been there before. It was super hot and sunny on the day of the wedding but he walked around the church ground trying to find spots that would look good in the pictures and avoid the harsh shadows from the sun for us. I told him that I had a "good side" and he made sure to position me on my "good side" in the pictures! I wanted a walking out with sparklers shot but our reception was not outdoors so he did it next to the reception building for us and the pictures turned out so great! He worked with what we got and made it look 100x better in the pictures! He also delivered us the pictures of us and the guests at the backdrop super fast so that we can send out our thank you cards as soon as possible! Ditto really went above and beyond for my wedding photos and I would recommend him to anybody!
Ditto was our engagement/wedding photographer. After our initial chat with Ditto, I knew that he would perfectly capture the vision for the wedding. Ditto went above and beyond dur...
ing our engagement shoot and scouted the place before our initial meet time. He even brought a second photographer to our engagement shoot to capture a different feel of the day! Ditto is a true professional and really knows how to capture the moment. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for the best, you have found him.
Ditto was our wedding photographer and we absolutely love all of the photos he took for us! His bright and natural style was exactly what we were looking for. We met with Ditto a f...
ew months before the wedding to discuss details, scheduling, and expectations. He took the time to get to know us, our story, and wanted to make sure he met our vision and needs for the wedding. He was professional and suggested his recommendations, yet allowed for collaboration and took into consideration our preferences. He went to check out the venue site on his own before our wedding day to scout out the location, get ideas for shots, and be prepared on the day of. On our wedding day, Ditto came early to set up and brought everything he needed, including props for still photos. He already had in mind suggestions of photo locations for the getting ready, bridal party, first look, couple, and family photos, which was great! We didn't have to think too much about what to do, how to pose, or where to go. He also had a second shooter with him, Corinna, who was really friendly, flexible, and fun, yet professional. Ditto and Corinna were so easy to work with and we enjoyed spending time with them on our special day. They were also really flexible and accommodating with our unexpected weather conditions. They were still happy to take us outside for our photo sessions despite the rain, wind, mud, and cold. They were willing to do whatever to capture the best photos possible for us. Ditto had a sneak peek album ready to share with us just a few days after, and the rest of the photos were available for us just nearly a month after our wedding even after he gave us the warning that they would come a little later due to his prearranged travel plans. We would definitely recommend Ditto Dianto Photography for all your wedding photography needs!
Wow wow wow! If I could give Ditto more than 5 stars, I would! He truly made our day go smoothly and was there for every big and small moment to capture it.
On our wedding day, Di...
tto and Corinna were there for us. They did ABOVE AND BEYOND to make us feel comfortable and help the day go by smoothly. He was calm, understanding, easygoing, so friendly, and very professional. He had the day schedule and picture list printed out to help us stay organized, and even kindly reminded us of our next thing on the schedule. In a way, I felt like he was also our coordinator :). Although we had agreed to 8 hours, he definitely was there a lot longer than that to capture every moment and every detail. Corinna, Ditto's second shooter, matches his personality and style so perfectly. Together, they made us feel comfortable, at ease, and were so helpful!
And again, Ditto delivered! We got our sneak preview pics a couple of days after the wedding and got our portfolio in less than a month. Seriously, I don't know how he does it! The best part is, the pictures all turned out amazing and we got so many compliments on them :).
Also, I forgot to mention that a week before the wedding, Ditto met with us at the venue to scout out locations for pictures as he was aware of our concerns re our venue. We got married on a college campus (CSM) which is not the most romantic looking/sounding, traditional venue at all. He yet somehow made it look nothing like a college campus :).
If you're looking for a talented photographer/artist who is also truly passionate about his work and will go above and beyond, Ditto is the guy for ya!!

Ditto is truly an artist and managed to capture the magic we felt on our wedding day. From the very moment we got in touch he was so courteous and adapting, and made sure we were h...
appy and confident throughout the entire process! On our wedding day he was so calm to be around and was able to capture all of the important moments from our day both big and small. We just got our pictures back (we got them back SO FAST!) and we are speechless, they look like a true fairytale through Ditto's lens. We cannot recommend Ditto enough as an incredible photographer and strong edition to your vendor team! Thank you Ditto!
Ditto is amazing! We love his style and completely trusted him to photograph our engagement shoot and wedding day. He met with us at our venue several times to scope out the best ...
angles and lighting. He is extremely quick and sent us some photos within a few days. Ditto is talented and very hardworking, super responsive and easy to work with. Highly recommended!
Flexible, courteous, speedy and a great knack for bringing out the beauty in any surrounding. My wife and I worked with Ditto this past year for both our engagement shoot and 7/21/...
18 wedding (& his assistant, Vivian). His work & professionalism have been impressive, which is why we wanted to write this review as soon as possible! Ditto & Vivian are very easy going, both communicate well and are really receptive to the elements in a photo that clients want. Ditto is very quick to provide preview shots for the engagement and wedding-- we already have a large number of wonderful preview shots from our wedding that was just 3 days ago! We are absolutely ecstatic about them and everyone who has seen them have already complimented how beautiful they are and what an amazing job Ditto and Vivian did. Initially, my wife did not want Ditto and Vivian to follow her back to her parent's home where she would change into her wedding dress-- she thought there wasn't going to be anywhere nice to shoot in the house. Luckily, our planner convinced her to just let them follow her along and they worked their magic. Ditto and Vivian turned her parent's dried out backyard into a beautiful rustic backdrop-- both parent's couldn't believe it! Their pictures that are magical, vibrant and full of life and emotion! If you're searching for a photographer, stop looking because Ditto & Vivian are the team you need & want!
Simply put Ditto was incredible!
We selected Ditto from a recommendation of a friend, and after the first time we met with Ditto we appreciated calm demeanor and keen attention ...
to detail. Ditto even travelled to the venue several weeks before the wedding to 'scope it out' and make sure he had an eye for the perfect locations that we'd capture in our wedding photos.
Beyond taking great photos, capturing the perfect light, and going through our checklist of 'must have' shots...Ditto was simply a joy to have at our wedding. He was always present, but never in the way and was able to capture photos in a candid and relaxed manner.
We really loved working with Ditto and would recommend him to any and all friends.
I'm so glad we found Ditto & Vivian to photograph our wedding. Ditto was really communicative from the start, always replying to emails promptly and making sure all our questions w...
ere answered. We set up an engagement shoot with them in April and they had suggestions for locations that they scouted out ahead of time so the actual shoot was really quick and easy. Ditto & Vivian are really friendly, easygoing, and made us feel comfortable during the shoot, and they had all of our photos ready the very next day.
It was the same story on our wedding day. Ditto & Vivian arrived exactly when we'd scheduled, and had already scouted out locations around the venue that would work for photos at different times of day. They grabbed us water when we got thirsty, helped us walk over rocks and grassy pathways, and yet still managed to melt into the background so they could capture really natural shots of us. We woke up the next morning to an email from Ditto saying he'd already set up a sneak peek of our photos, with at least 40 really beautiful shots from throughout the day.
All this, and they charged probably $1,000 less than the other photographers we contacted. I couldn't be happier with hiring Ditto & Vivian!
I found Ditto and Felix via Craigslist after seeing how crazy prices can be for engagement and wedding sessions. I gave them a chance and did an interview. They are up and coming a...
nd will soon be well known for sure. They have done a number of weddings and also a few other projects. Two different styles but yet similar. The price you pay gets both of them for both the engagement AND wedding session. They are committed and you can see the passion and dedication to provide fabulous photos. They are also quick to turn around the results as well.
