About this vendor
Hello and welcome! I'm so glad you decided to stop by my page!
My name is Minh and I am the owner and photographer at du soleil photographie. My photography gravitates towards natural light, ethereal texture and organic emotions. My photos are woven with sunlight and a vibrant color pallete. I search for dimensions that produce a bright and soft ambience while complementing you as the focal point of the photograph. Most important of all, I seek intangible cues of relationships, cues that help me see affection for your loved ones and excitement for your big day. I may guide you through how to pose for your photos, but it is always the in-between shots capturing candid expressions that turn out to be your and my favorites.

Choosing Minh and the Du Soleil team as our wedding photographer was one of the best decisions we made.
On the day of the wedding, Minh and her team were punctual, professional, and incredibly easy to work with. They have a natural talent for making everyone feel comfortable and at ease, which really shows in the candid, heartfelt moments they captured. Their attention to detail and ability to capture the essence of each moment is truly remarkable.
The quality of the photos is outstanding. The colors are vibrant, the images are crisp, and the emotions are palpable.
Beyond their technical skills, Minh is a genuinely kind and passionate person. She took the time to get to know us as a couple, understand our vision, and ensure that every important moment and detail was captured.
We are beyond thrilled with the photos and will cherish them forever. Minh has a true gift for capturing the magic of a wedding day, and we cannot recommend them highly enough.
Thank you for capturing the best day of our lives so beautifully!
I can't recommend Minh of Du Soleil Photography enough! She was an absolute delight to work with and captured our special day with such grace and artistry.
From the very beginning, Minh impressed us with her warm and friendly demeanor. She took the time to understand our vision and made us feel at ease throughout the entire process. During our wedding day, she effortlessly blended into the background, yet managed to capture every precious moment without being intrusive.
Her talent and eye for detail are truly commendable. The photos she delivered were beyond our expectations – each one was a masterpiece, perfectly reflecting the emotions and love shared on our big day. We were absolutely blown away by her ability to capture the essence of our relationship.
Aside from her remarkable skills as a photographer, Minh has a wonderful personality that puts everyone at ease. She was patient, accommodating, and incredibly professional, making the entire experience enjoyable for us and our families.
The turnaround time for receiving our photos was impressively fast, and the quality was exceptional. Every image was beautifully edited, highlighting the natural beauty of the moments captured.
We can't thank Minh at Du Soleil Photography enough for preserving these precious memories for us. Her lovely presence and impeccable work made our wedding day even more special. We will cherish these photos for a lifetime, and we wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone in need of a talented and delightful wedding photographer!
Thank you, Minh, for making our day so memorable and for being an absolute pleasure to work with!
Before we met Minh, trying to book a photographer for our wedding was the most stressful part of the vendor booking process. Aside from her glaring talent (evident from her social media and gallery), Minh stood out to us because of her ability to communicate, guide us, and make us feel at ease. Soft skills are often overlooked as a talent but this is not to be overlooked with Minh! Her ability to understand and guide people combined with her incredible talent and artistry make her an obvious choice. Just going to drop some more reasons why we love Minh below!
1. She is calm and collected! At our first call, she was calm (but also clearly excited for us), collected, and organized. I didn't really know what I wanted but she was able to listen to my incoherent babbling, guide me by asking pointed questions and gentle suggestions, and allowed me to understand better what I might want for the wedding.
2. She is EXPERIENCED. Because of her experience, she was able to get all the shots done in the allotted amount of time and also provided recommendations on how to map out the timeline better. She had a really good understanding of how she would have to work with/around other vendor schedules to get things done. I never worried once because I knew she was on board.
She also has a lot of in depth knowledge of shooting locations, lighting, etc. She was able to suggest some beautiful shooting locations for us based on our vibe/vision.
Lastly, because of her experience, she was able to coax some really cool shots out of some really awkward people. She has a really easy going and cool vibe about her that makes you feel OK about feeling awkward. Then after a little bit, you realize you don't even feel awkward anymore. She was able to gauge when we needed a break, when she could push us a little more out of our comfort zone, and when to just let us be.
We're so happy Minh was a part of our wedding!!!
Working with Minh and her team was the BEST DECISION I made during the wedding planning process. Her talent goes beyond the average wedding photographer by not only having an outstanding expertise in the industry, but offering endless information, assisting with picking other vendors, catering to our vision/style and inspiring it, guiding us through the wedding day and being by my side the entire day reassuring that all is going great! Minh stood out from every other vendor from our initial call simply because she showed genuine curiosity in our relationship and wedding – I’ve learned that truly matters in this process! It’s evident this is her passion by how committed she was to me and my husband from day 1, through the engagement shoot, and on. She brought inspiration to our shoots, suggested locations, and helped us pose and recreate the style of photos we wanted. In addition to her magical eye for photography, Minh is so beyond patient, VERY communicative and calm. I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect photography partner for our wedding, and I look forward to using her talents in the future!
I am so grateful that we had Minh as our wedding photographer- She is truly the BEST!! She is extremely talented, pays attention to every detail and captures the emotions from the day perfectly. She has a calming presence that we greatly appreciated on our wedding day. Minh was awesome to work with from our first call with her. We had to reschedule our date because of Covid and Minh was very understanding, told us to text her with available dates from the venue so she can get back to us right away. She is professional, kind and so easy to work with. We LOVE our photos. Cannot recommend Minh enough!
Aside from me choosing my husband to marry, booking Minh was the BEST decision we made for our wedding. She is incredibly organized and prompt. So communicating about details and schedule, etc., was made a lot easier. During our engagement shoot, she made us feel really comfortable despite never having taken couple photos before. My husband hates taking photos for extended periods of time but actually enjoyed the few hours we spent with Minh one Sunday afternoon which was a good sign for the eventual wedding.
For the wedding itself, while as the bride and groom and for anyone in the bridal party, it can often times feel quite hectic and stressful. But Minh exudes an immense calmness while she works that it relaxed us when things didn't go exactly as we had expected (ie. weather, shoot locations, etc.). You can tell while she's working that she pays attention to every detail and works to get the best shots throughout the entire day. Once we got our photos back we were IN AWE of all the photos she and her associate took. We have so many incredible images now that we can keep looking back on to remember all the little moments from that day. She is an artist and some shots we couldn't imagine how she could have possibly seen the opportunity in person to capture it so beautifully in photo. But she did.
Honestly I cannot praise Minh and her work enough. You won't regret hiring her. I would book her again and again and probably will for future things if she's willing!
It’s hard to put into words how grateful we were to have Minh as our wedding photographer. Not only is she incredibly talented, but she’s kind, patient, and a pleasure to work with. She captured every moment and emotion from our wedding day perfectly. From our first interaction to our wedding day, Minh made each step of the process easy, exciting and most importantly stress free. She took the time to familiarize herself with our venue and planned out each photo, which she executed flawlessly. My husband and I have received an overwhelming amount of compliments on our wedding photos. We have both said numerous times we can’t wait to work with Minh again. She is truly the BEST!
I've met Minh before at another wedding and HAD to have her. Her work is genuine art and gorgeous! She is a work-horse and she gets everyone ready and in line to get the shots as efficiently as possible, especially as my husband and I did not do a first look so we had limited time for formal portraits. She sent me a sneak peak within 2 days of stunning wedding pictures. She captures all the tiny details, that you as the bride, work on forever before and never actually see the day-of. Absolutely would recommend, and have recommended her to friends. She travelled to Salem, MA to shoot our wedding and we feel so lucky she agreed.
Minh was AMAZING! She was the photographer for our engagement shoot, rehearsal dinner, and wedding day. Her aesthetic for her photos are unbelievable. She was very communicative throughout the process and got shots of everyone we wanted on our wedding day. Minh is so kind and talented and we enjoyed working with her on our special day. Cannot recommend her enough!
Husband and I were very lucky to have Minh capture our intimate, last minute backyard wedding last year. Plans have changed last minute due to weather conditions but we just knew Minh will capture everything beautifully and she exceeded our expectations. Minh was very attentive to every detail, captured emotions and energy of the wedding day so beautifully and thoroughly.
Minh has a beautiful soul and pure talent you definitely can see that through her photos. Having Minh as our wedding photographer was one of the best decisions we made. Thank you Minh!
I initially hired Minh for engagement photos only since I was having a destination wedding out of country. I absolutely loved her work and working with her so much that I flew her out to Mexico for my destination wedding! I've received countless compliments from friends, family, and strangers! It was so easy working with Minh--she is an artist, is incredibly professional, timely, thoughtful, and simply a beautiful soul and person. She helped me and husband feel so comfortable in front of the camera which is amazing since we are both camera shy! I've heard many past brides say that they've regretted their wedding photos...so I wanted to make sure that our photos turned out beautifully!! Hiring Minh was one of the best and easiest decisions I made for my wedding! She is so passionate about what she does and cares so much about her clients. Thank you, Minh, for always exceeding our expectations and going above and beyond what was asked for!
Minh did an amazing job capturing all of the love and fun that we had at our wedding. Her photos are so light and airy, and we love how she used film and digital. Minh was great at communicating and helped up set our day of schedule. She has preserved the memory of our wedding so well and we can't wait to cherish the photos forever.
We got Minh's name from an event we attend every year in Philadelphia and I remember looking at her photos afterwards and noticing how perfectly and accurately she captured such a lively event. Once we realized she also did wedding photos, we knew it had to be her, which turned out to be one of the best decisions we made throughout our wedding planning process. I'm not someone who likes having their picture taken, but with Minh, she made us feel so at ease with her warm, friendly and professional manner that it just felt natural. Both our engagement and wedding albums came out beyond lovely (I happy cried at both) and beautifully captured both the large and small moments of the day. The hard part is going to be picking out which photos to use for our album! We cannot recommend Minh enough and I hope very much to be working with her again in the future!
It was such a joy to have Minh photograph our wedding. From the moment we reached out to her we enjoyed every minute working with her. When we first met, I expressed my concern for being able to capture photos all day because our wedding day was going to be so long (2pm Catholic ceremony, 6pm cocktail hour/reception), but Minh took this to heart and developed a package for us that was reasonably priced and put me at ease. We took engagement shots which I highly suggest as it was a great way to start getting comfortable in front of the camera prior to the wedding. Spending the afternoon with Minh was just a blast. And prior to our wedding Minh took the time to meet with us to go over details for the day. Having Minh capture our wedding day was wonderful. It felt so natural to have her around and you could tell she truly cared about capturing the beauty of the day. She was also so positive all day even through a rain storm and working a 12 plus hour day. We are so happy with the images we received- they are bright yet soft and truly capture the joy, love, and emotion we experienced on our wedding day. One of our main goals for our wedding was for it to feel timeless and Minh’s talent behind the camera and the photos she produces feel timeless to us. We will truly treasure these wonderful keepsakes from our day for a long time. We highly recommend working with Minh!
Where do I begin? Finding a photographer who could bring our vision of how we wanted our wedding day to captured was something that was extremely important to us and I’m happy to say that our search ended when we first spoke to Minh. She is creative, kind and extremely talented! Plus she makes you feel so comfortable in front of the camera! We worked with minh for our engagement and wedding photos and could not be happier with how beautifully she managed to capture our day! The photos look like they belong in a wedding magazine! Working with her was so easy because she is so laid back yet gets the job done in a professional and timely manner! We can’t wait to use her photography services in the future and highly recommend anyone looking for a wedding photographer to book her! Minh, thank you!!
Minh is an extremely talented photographer. Our photos came out even better than we could have imagined. Book her for any of your photography needs. You won’t be disappointed.
Minh is incredibly talented and an absolute pleasure to work with! Our initial meeting was very casual and I felt like I was chatting with a friend. I told Minh that I was looking for a very specific photography style - a soft and romantic touch, with the perfect use of light - and she showed me some of her work that just hit the nail on the head! I immediately booked engagement and wedding photos with her. Minh is attentive to even the smallest of details and her use of light is just beautiful. Minh made us feel very comfortable taking our photos and we absolutely love them - as do our family and friends. Minh goes the extra mile to find the perfect position, location and lighting for the best shots and even took the time to send me preview photos before the entire album was ready, which I loved! She was always available to answer any of my questions and really takes that next step to show that she loves her work and her clients! I will do all photos with her going forward :-)
We recently did an engagement session with Minh and it was such a perfect experience! She made us feel incredibly comfortable. This really helped us open up to be ourselves in the session. We had such a fun time hopping around the city. The pictures we received blew my mind. Minh did such a fantastic job capturing all the happy emotions of our engagement. I am so happy that I will have these photos to look back on. I would highly recommend Du Soleil Photographie.
I contacted Minh based on a recommendation from a friend and I couldn't be happier! My dad has pretty advanced dementia and due to his cognitive degeneration, as our wedding approached, plans of having him there began to change. My husband and I got married in Maui, Hawaii, and we thought my dad could make the trip. As the months went by, we sadly realized he couldn't make the journey from Philadelphia. After our Maui wedding, we decided to fly home to Philadelphia to have a small ceremony with my dad so he could get the chance to walk me down the aisle and be there to see our marriage. I contacted Minh maybe a week before because I really wanted this documented with photos for my dad. She was so gracious and was able to fit us in on such short notice. We booked her for an hour and a half. She arrived early and right from the bat, everyone felt so at ease with her direction. I recently got the pictures back and cried looking through the album. I know that he probably won't remember this day, but I think he'll remember the feeling he had that day and now he has the most beautiful pictures to look back on to help him remember.
Minh is such a beautiful soul. She is kind and professional and her work is absolutely incredible. She has so much passion for what she does and it is reflected in her photos. Our photos were warm and happy and candid, which is exactly how I remember the day. I'm so thankful for having her there, it was an honor!
Minh is so wonderful! She has a calming demeanor that makes you feel relaxed in front of the camera. Minh is a perfectionist and loves what she does! Minh arrived to all of our photo sessions early to find the perfect lighting and locations for our shoots.
I knew I wanted to work with Minh almost instantly upon meeting her. She is super organized and plans out the wedding day to make sure she doesn't miss any important moments during your Big Day. The icing on the cake was that Minh offered to travel to Charlotte, NC to take our engagement photos on her way to another wedding she was photographing in Charleston, SC.
Minh also gave me recommendations for other vendors in the area and I ended up booking several that she mentioned. As an out of town bride this was a huge help! She also was able to find me hair/makeup for my bridal portraits last minute. Minh truly goes above and beyond the call of duty and her work is stunning! I would highly recommend Minh!
Minh is incredible. There's really no other way to put it. From the minute we met, her photographs produced natural, loving moments. We love her so much we've already asked her to come back for family portraits!
Her photos express a vulnerable, loving side of people that's hard to capture, and she's so easy and fun loving.
I can't rave about Minh enough. She made us feel so comfortable in our engagement and wedding pictures. My husband does not enjoy getting his picture taken but with Minh's personality, it felt like we were spending the afternoon with a new friend. The added bonus being that the pictures turned out gorgeous! She is so creative and has an eye that can make even the most mundane backdrops pop. She is so professional and the added touches of her prints and her delivery were the cherry on top. We can not rave about her enough and look forward to her capturing more memories as our family grows.
Words cannot describe how amazing and helpful Minh’s photography was during our wedding day last summer. She made us feel relaxed and comfortable during the entire process despite how unorganized our schedule was. I found Minh to be very friendly and flexible with our limited time at the venue. We are very extremely happy we found Du Soleil Photographie through Instagram. She captured our big day beautifully and we are pleased with the details of each picture. I am thankful that we had Minh capture our most wonderful day that we are going to treasure forever. The pictures that came out from Minh were gorgeous and it is truly everything we wanted. Thank you very much for fixing the “Welcome” sign to my wedding. You are a lifesaver! We look forward to working with you again on other important life events.
We can not express enough how wonderful it was to work with du soleil photographie! Minh was so responsive and helpful through the entire process. She was easy to talk to on the phone and when we met in person it felt like she was a friend. Minh made us feel special through her thoughtfulness. At our wedding, her and her second photographer were so professional and kept the wedding party and timeline on track making sure we got all the photos we asked for. We will be working with her again for other joyful life moments to come :)
