Gary Lun Photography

ly, and warm person. In the months leading up to the wedding, he met with us multiple times (virtually, as we live out of state) to get an idea of who we are as a couple and what types of photos we wanted. He also had us complete detailed questionnaires, which helped us think through the important elements of the day. About a month before the wedding, he walked us through the photography timeline. He even suggested things to make the day go more smoothly. And checked in on us the days leading up! On the day of, he arrived early and was very kind to our wedding party and guests. Our 5-year-old nephew followed Gary around all day trying to be an assistant photographer (LOL!), so we thank him for being extra accommodating. Gary helped pose our wedding party to capture gorgeous photos. For the rest of the evening, he was there to capture many of our candid moments. We received preview photos the day after the wedding (SO FAST!), and they were stunning. We're so happy we got him as our wedding photographer. Gary is a true professional. He was more than just our photographer, he was our hype man! :) We would definitely work with him again!

ning to what we wanted. He was also very professional and consistently met or exceeded his timelines for delivering pictures. We had multiple guests tell us how much they enjoyed meeting Gary and seeing his beautiful pictures and we could not agree more!

and made sure that we were satisfied with the work he was doing. Gary has a very relaxing demeanor and put everyone at ease. And the early pictures we have seen are excellent. We highly recommend Gary to everyone. He will capture the moments so well and create the pictures for a wedding album that will store the memories forever.

ve now worked a few weddings with Gary and each one has been a fantastic and smooth experience. If you're a couple looking for a photographer or a photographer seeking an experienced mentor I highly recommend him!

ed so many amazing shots along the way. He's great at capturing movement and color, and the photos have such nice "spring" feel! I had a certain purple flowering tree in mind for the photos, but alas, the storms had taken all the flowers away, but we improvised and took pictures next to a smaller tree with white flowers. From the pictures you could never tell that the backdrop was just a sparse little small tree - It looks so much bigger and beautiful! He also way exceeded expectations in the photo delivery - delivering too many good photos to choose from and an extra edit because of a stylistic preference (which was unexpected and very nice of him). Gary is great to work with (super easy to reach and easy to talk to), and we're excited to have him photograph our wedding next year!

helpful in guiding us how to pose and move. He is very personable and the pictures turned out better than I could have imagined. I highly recommend him and so glad we chose Gary as our photographer for our best day ever!

h the entire process. He is an excellent communicator and we loved having him as our photographer. Highly recommended!

couple was phenomenal and he made us feel comfortable to stand in front of the camera. Gary is organized, easy to communicate with, and his work is absolutely stunning. We never had to stress over working with or communicating with Gary, which definitely took a lot off our place during the busy time preparing for the wedding. We did both our engagement session and wedding with Gary and it was the best decision we ever made! Even other vendors who has worked with Gary previously could not stop going on about how kind and great Gary was! We could not have asked for a better photographer and we highly recommend Gary to anyone looking for a photographer to capture your big day!

hed us as we weren’t used to taking portraits and was very friendly and professional! We highly recommend him for any of your future events!

e future! He is a accommodating, professional, organized, and the most friendly guy you’ll ever have to take your pictures. His style is very bright and natural and everything we could have ever wanted. My fiancé are terrible at pictures, but Gary still managed to make us look good. :)

n his final product. He is easy to work with, from the engagement shoot, to the wedding timeline, and scheduling, to the first look and the main event; everything went perfectly. As one of the most important vendors involved in our big day, we can't overemphasize how glad we were to have a photographer that we could really and fully trust. This is now the second wedding in our family that Gary has photographed. We cannot recommend Gary highly enough.

ths prior to our actual wedding day. We had such a fun time during the engagement shoot getting to know Gary. He is incredibly talented, professional, and kind! He is so focused on capturing the special moments, which really meant a lot to us. We are thrilled with his services and highly recommend him for your wedding. You will not be disappointed.

k. However, Gary also helped keep us organized and on point. He scheduled multiple check-in calls with us to ensure everything was appropriately planned. He created an itinerary that we consulted frequently during our wedding planning. On wedding day he was happy to assist with anything else my wife and I needed, and he was extremely communicative throughout. He is an absolute professional and we feel extremely fortunate to have been able to use him as our photographer.

o work with. We felt really comfortable with Gary throughout our shoot and he captured some gorgeous photos we will treasure for a lifetime. I'd highly recommend Gary as your photographer!

t to work with and went way above and beyond! We love our photos and 120% recommend Gary!

as able to send us all the pictures in a very timely manner and they came out beautifully! 100/10 would recommend!

dding vendors, you wonder if you can gel well together, if you can trust the vendor to show up, if the product will turn out. I NEVER had to worry about Gary and what he can deliver. We love our photos! Bonus: Gary spoke Cantonese and that really helped my out-of-town, Cantonese speaking parents feel very comfortable.

ved his artistic approach to creating beautiful couples photos. Gary was very responsive to our emails and was even proactive in reaching out to us as our reservation approached, rescheduling us in advance due to weather. He was professional, yet easy-going, which made him fun and easy to work with. The turnaround was quick, and we got more photos than we could even ask for. Thanks for the beautiful photos, Gary! We'll cherish these forever!

nable to work with and made the photoshoot process simple and fun! I could go on and on about his work, but his portfolio speaks for itself.

Gary was on a short list of just 3 wedding photographers that my husband liked their portfolios. Working with Gary was great - before, during, and after! He told us up front what to expect, gave us some "homework" which helped him ensure that he got the shots we wanted. Gary is a kind, easy going man - which made it easy to work with him the day of the wedding. Post wedding, Gary posted "preview" photos on Facebook - and finished processing the rest of the photos by his stated delivery date. My husband and I were thrilled at the quality of photos that we got on our wedding day. Gary is worth every penny! Bonus tip: make sure you like Gary's Facebook page - that's where he posted our wedding preview photos!

ly thankful that he allowed us to pick two locations (Minnehaha Falls and Kaya Vineyards) for an engagement photo session that we won. He is extremely friendly, very easy going and an amazingly skilled photographer! We received our photos in 2 weeks and we absolutely loved all of the photos!

got our photos back about 2 weeks after our session and we love all of them! Gary was excellent and met all of our needs!

t ease. He offers lots of ideas and helpful direction during photo shoots, but he’s also very open-minded about trying your ideas too. Overall he’s a pleasant and professional person to work with, and you will love your photos.

lso helped us so much before the photo shoot with picking locations and giving tips and advice. He’s very responsive! Our engagement pictures turned out absolutely beautiful!

ful and had such a calming presence on the big day. My day started out terribly because my hair and makeup stylists were late so I wasn't able to get cute pj pictures with my girls all ready and get some of the group pictures out of the way, but that didn't phase Gary. He told me it was going to be ok and proceeded to take what ended up to be some of my most favorite pictures. His attention to detail is amazing and his creativity is astounding. Him and his assistant were better than we had ever dreamed of and more. I would recommend him to absolutely anyone! He will not only be a great photographer for your special day, but he will also be a great friend to have there.

passed by the incredible photos he takes. My husband has never been a huge fan of getting his photo taken but Gary was so easy to work with that he was able to bring our personality out and capture it on film. Our engagement shoot was our first time meeting him in person and right away we knew he cared just as much as we did about getting these special photos right. That carried through the last moments of our wedding and he has continued to impress us even just seeing the sneak peeks!! We hope to work with him again for other life events and I highly recommend him to any bride looking for a photographer that they can fully trust.

ding. Gary is very professional and responsive. He made sure we were the right fit from the beginning. He made us feel at ease. But in addition to his talent, he also brings his great personality to your wedding day. He was fun to spend time with all day and I really appreciate how he went above and beyond to make my wedding day great! Could not ask for a better wedding photographer!

didn't even think we needed! Would recommend him to anyone!

deliver high quality photos for you. I live in San Francisco and got married in Atlanta, so having that extra communication was extremely helpful for an anxious person like me that was planning from afar. During our engagement sessions, my husband and I weren't sure of how to pose so Gary helped us figure out poses that looked natural and turned out well! Despite being rained on, having ants crawl into our shoes, and strong winds, Gary made it work and still got great shots. Gary also gave us a lot of extra photos than he usually does for both our wedding and the engagement photos, which was a pleasant surprise for us! I was in love with so many of our photos from our wedding both from candid and non-candid shots - the pictures turned out really clear and bright despite it being a cloudy day. He's also sending us a few courtesy print out photos, which I can't wait to receive. You get a really great bang for your buck with Gary and I'm recommending him to my friends who are getting married in Atlanta.

get exhausted but Gary won't.

dding photos to capture your special moments then Gary is absolutely the right person. Let the pictures speak themselves.

parkler exit picture but couldn’t have them at our venue, he made sure my dream came true on our wedding day by just walking Across the street, I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer. Without a doubt for any other events or photography needs Gary will always be our first choice.

rapher in Johns Creek GA. We made a phone call and met with him. We knew he was our photographer immediately. He lives in our area, was very familiar with our venue and reasonably priced. Our wedding guests even made comments about the number of photos he took at the wedding and reception. He delivered our photos to us two weeks earlier than expected and we were more than happy with our photos. Thanks for everything Gary!

ed to hire but was not available during my wedding date. Gary responded to my email almost immediately. We set up a Skype session where we chatted face-to-face and got to know each other a little better. So the reasons why I chose him: 1) He's a good listener and pays attention 2) He offered options to "earn" my business, despite the fact that I was on a tight budget 3) He has a passion for photography and telling the story 4) He wasn't "obnoxious" as my pastor would say. 5) He spoke Chinese and English. I could see him building a good working relationship with my family members, taking a lot of the stress off of me as the bride 6) He understood the challenges of having a fiancee who didn't like to be photographed, and tried to work around it. I was impressed at how many good candid photos he got of my groom. 7) Very reasonably priced printed albums. I didn't decide to purchase the album until just before the wedding. I don't regret that decision one bit. Gary's editorial style is evident in how he helped me narrow down the photos. I wanted to include more photos than the album could allow and ultimately I just said "Gary, these are the ones I like, feel free to edit." A few other thoughts worth noting: Our wedding was small, and we didn't have a lot of special moments to capture (e.g. bouquet toss, first dance, garter toss), so in some ways, I felt bad for Gary, because he didn't have a lot of material to work with. In hindsight, I should have been a little more careful in picking a wedding venue that had better angels for him to work with (e.g. church located across the street from the US post office, resulting in the US post office in the background). So I certainly learned that the photographs are only as beautiful as the surroundings you choose, and it's enhanced by the photographer who shoots the wedding. I was never really a bridezilla, so for those of you who are more like me (i.e. don't always have a clear vision of what you want), look online and find types of photos you do want. This will help your photographer (no matter who you choose) to capture certain angles/poses. My one regret was not specifying having a full body shot of my wedding dress with the train fluffed out. So fast forward a few months... I got my wedding album (yay!) and we are reliving our wedding day, all thanks to Gary. My self-proclaimed "non-photogenic" husband loves the photos and really had nothing but kind words regarding Gary and his work. Even my hard to please Chinese mom loved Gary (and a happy mom made for a happy bride)! Thanks Gary for sharing and capturing our special day! :)

wonderful to work with. He was professional and made the entire process easy. He listened and worked with us to capture exactly the type of photos we wanted. The final product exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend Gary!

tos. And I am so glad that I did. Not only are Gary’s photos simply breathtaking but he is committed to the best possible client/photographer relationship. He knows the importance of fostering a trusting environment between the two and how it positively impacts capturing those precious moments. During a day, like your wedding, where things can get hectic, it was so reassuring to have Gary’s calm yet joyful presence. I didn’t have a single doubt that he would capture our day beautifully and after viewing the photos, I was right. They are simply incredible and we couldn’t be any happier with the results!

g of the process until our wedding day and always timely with communication. On the day of the wedding, he and his second photographer Renee showed up way earlier than expected to start photos. Seriously, who does that?! I was so appreciative! The entire wedding party was amazed at how efficient he was. On top of his professionalism, he has such a warm and welcoming personality and truly was just a pleasure to work with. The photos I’ve seen so far are beautiful and I’m excited to see them all. Thanks again Gary!!!

ld sympathize with how much of a blessing this is), punctual, fun to work with, accommodating, and very reasonably priced. Before the wedding, Gary made sure to write down all the photos we would need and want. He also went through how the day would unfold so that we would be comfortable with it. On the day of, he and his assistant did an amazing job running all around the venue and getting all of the photos perfectly captured for the day. The post process wasn't very long and we are very happy with how the pictures turned out. Overall, I would definitely recommend Gary's services to any other bride who might need a photography in Atlanta :)

his team brought was incredible and he worked hard none stop (on a pretty warm day!) And of course the photos were AMAZING, everyone was gushing about what a fantastic job he did. He was very accommodating the whole step of the way and really knew how to pay an eye to detail. I couldn't wait to receive my pictures and now that I have I can't wait to frame them and even print one or two into to canvas portraits. I've worked with him for both my engagement shoot and wedding and I wouldn't want to work with anybody else. Can't wait to use him for my next occasion!

ating a comfortable environment and providing you with beautiful pictures that hold a lifetime of memories. We are so glad to have him as our photographer!

photography and really made it personal to us. He is so kind and his down-to-earth personality really put us both at ease. Not only is Gary wonderful but his wife, Melonie, is a super-hero. She calmly stitched a button that had popped off the back of my wedding dress, just minutes before the ceremony, when everyone else was too stressed to do it. It’s things like this that demonstrate how Gary Lun Photography goes above and beyond to make sure that your big day is wonderful and captured perfectly!

nt and gave a lot great suggestions. My husband never smile to the camera, he gets nervous whenever the lens is focus on him. However, when we got our pictures, i was so surprised that he was smiling in our engagement pics, not just one or two photos, but plenty! In several of them, he was caught laughing so happily in front of the camera! Not sure how Gary managed to do that. How amazing! Both my husband and myself LOOOOOOVE our engagement pictures! We printed out some of our photos in big size and displayed them on our wedding reception. We got so many compliments and some of our friends said those are most nature engagement pictures they've even seen and they can feel the happiness from the pictures! I highly recommend Gary to whomever is looking for a great photographer!
