Gin & Sake Productions

h good things. Our photos were perfect and the experience was perfect!

e we were even back home. I would highly recommend Brandon.

s and family and the option to buy photos directly from the viewing site was a nice touch.

ver the last year and a half I've looked at a LOT of wedding pictures in preparation for our wedding day but Brandon's photographs are amazing, they captured everything we were looking for in our intimate Las Vegas wedding suite wedding. Some of the shots are truly breathtaking, I can't thank him enough for memorializing our day with some of the most beautiful photographs I've ever seen. I normally hate having my picture taken and was hesitant to make a big to do out of my wedding photographs because I wanted to "enjoy the moment" but these make me wish we'd done more! If you are looking to hire someone for event photography in the Las Vegas area, start here!

party - my husband tends to get impatient through photo shoots but even he enjoyed himself. 100% would recommend this vendor to anyone in the Vegas area.

ea months before the wedding and had regular communication about our game plan ahead of the big day. The day of, he made sure my husband and I didn’t see each other before the ceremony and captured my first look with my father beautifully. Brandon was EVERYWHERE and got so many beautiful angles of every moment. He captured our wedding perfectly and we are so grateful to him. We had our pictures just days after the wedding, and we love every single one!!

d the results. Our photos are beautiful, fun and a perfect mix of candid and staged. We would recommend Brandon to anyone!

essional and extremely detailed oriented, which my husband and I both loved! He had our friends and family take sunglasses off, cell phones out of their pockets, and fixed jackets to make each group photo look amazing! My favorite thing was that he seemed to get shots from EVERY angle during our ceremony but I didn't notice him running around at all! He was like a ninja running around without being seen! He was able to capture us perfectly as a couple and our guests too! I got so many compliments on the candid shots he got of our guests and decorations! I would 100% recommend Brandon to anyone! Not to mention he got us back all our photos in 5 DAYS! All around great experience with him!

n around time of getting the photos from my entire wedding back, everything, just truly, exceeded my expectations! Communication: Nothing unprofessional to report, he gets back to you as soon as he can. There was no guessing when or if he would get back to me. Pricing: Extremely reasonable for the product and customer service that I got. He's truly honest with his pricing and does not fall short of what you're paying for! Product: The photos were everything!!! I received the edited photos just 3 days after my wedding. I could not have been happier. My family could not believe that Brandon captured so many awesome moments all by himself. They are the type of photos that captured timeless memories! He truly knows how to cease the moment through his lenses. If there's one word that I would pick to sum up Brandon and his business it would be genuine. From your initial contact via email to the last picture he takes, he truly truly cares about the service you get and the product he's putting out. If you're still debating on a photographer, take one less stressful thing off of your shoulders and go with Gin and Sake Productions, I promise you won't regret it! Thank you again Brandon for all the wonderful pictures and being such an all around awesome person! I appreciate you! Please don't ever stop taking pictures!

r would have thought of. Our pictures are something we look forward to sharing for years to come. He was there promptly and was nothing less than professional and friendly the entire time. He was great with all our guests from babies to my grandmother. The best thing is he had all of our pictures to us in less than a week after the wedding! Thank you Brandon, we cannot express how grateful we truly are!

wedding party was more than I expected. He e-mailed me all of our photos within 48 hours of the event and they are absolutely incredible. I couldn't have asked for anything more!

back to us. He was fun, friendly and professional and his pictures are perfect, I mean perfect!!! He answered every question we had and made us feel comfortable the entire time. He captured every detail and moment that we hoped, as well as the small things my husband and I missed while we were doing things. I wouldn't change anything about hiring Gin and Sake, one of the best choices we made when it came to hiring wedding vendors. We got our pictures back so quick and our pictures look like we came right off of a magazine page!

wanted someone who could document the day without having us or our guests “pose” for too many pictures and really capture the atmosphere of the day. Brandon you managed this perfectly, all of our guest commented on how unobtrusive you were was whilst ensuring you got all of the best moments. You have taken some magical photographs of us and our guest enjoying the day that we will treasure forever. Your photojournalistic approach to wedding photography meant that myself and Paul felt at ease and barely noticed you were there in the best way possible. You also made us feel relaxed in the moments where we did have to get some shots together with us and family. In fact in 90% of the pictures you took with us that were casually posed we are laughing which is almost unheard of when a camera is around. All of our guest have commented on how amazing the pictures are and how they give a sense of how much laughter and love was around on the day of our wedding and we can’t thank you enough Brandon for that. We will forever have some very cool photographs to remember our wedding day by!

ing him in the future and highly recommend! Thanks Brandon:)

k control, with polite, thoughtful and clear direction. He communicated well, was respectful of the guests and unobtrusive. He knew what shots would work and how best to achieve them. We really enjoyed working with him, and the photos were superb. We would absolutely recommend him.

eremony. He perfectly captured the great moments during the ceremony and took some really stunning photos around the venue afterwards. Despite this being a very short window of time to work with, he managed to get us some perfect photos to remember our day by. I can only imagine that if you have him booked for a longer period of time you will be even more impressed with what he can capture for you! We were married on a Friday and got our pictures 2 days later on a Sunday which was way faster turnaround than I expected. It was so nice to have pictures from our destination wedding to immediately share with friends and family that weren't able to make it. He was also very responsive and accomodating to a couple of requests for photo edits post the initial send. We couldn't be happier with our experience and photos!

nalism, and genuine desire to make every moment captured even more special than the last. He so flawlessly navigates his way through the process that he makes it completely stress free communicating as if you have known each other for years. He is like a ninja photography genius (NPG- a term made just for him) quietly navigating his way through a sea of chaos capturing significance you didn't realize was occurring. If I could double my stars and multiply them by 10 I would. He is extremely versatile and you can tell that he is well versed and in my eyes expert at just about whatever you could throw at him. If you are still reading this stop right now, scroll back up and request a quote to book this brilliant photographer immediately. You will not be disappointed and will find yourself with your very own NPG!

reply to any of my emails without me having to double email her.. then i’d finally get a reply a week later with a rubbish excuse and it would be uninterested and blunt. Nothing like the other lovely, friendly photographers i have spoken to via email. I have just emailed to say i am cancelling as she is not interested at all in my wedding. Her reply included lovely comments like ‘i’m so sorry that you are not top of my priority list, your wedding is 3 months away’. ‘Congratulations again’. A paragraph of the most unprofessional, sarcastic tone I have ever received. Thank god i am not going with this company, Jill needs to grow up and act like a professional if she’s hoping to get $900 for 4 hours photography.

bly the least photogenic people ever and after reviewing our photos we were in awe! I love that our photos turned out natural and not so "posey" like most wedding photos. He captured all the special moments, the details, and our personalities. When they say enjoy your wedding day for it goes by fast they weren't kidding! Thankfully Brandon captured it all and we relived our day all over again viewing the photos! Not to mention he had the photos back to us within a few days. This was a present all together! I would highly recommend Brandon to anyone! Simply the best there is! :)

ride in a white dress (me) standing in the late afternoon Nevada sun go from "washed out" to "radiant". He captured the big bits and the sweet little moments between us and our guests with grace and humor. It truly let us relax and enjoy the day knowing it was being documented by a talented professional. We would work with him again in a heartbeat!

use the pictures were stylish, bold and strikingly beautiful. The pictures captured different moments and each of them were unique in their own way, but all shots somehow had a signature that only Brandon had. My first impression from the website was that Brandon was a professional. I even liked his “about” section that to me, said he was straight-forward, genuine and flexible. I was hooked. Although I was hesitant to contact him because I was working with a smaller budget, but I followed the advice of many discussion boards that say, “There’s no harm in asking”. Brandon was able to work with me for the time coverage, locations (multiple), budget, and on top of that gave me advice. I had my ceremony at Valley of Fire State Park, and he advised me on the best part of the site to give me the best pictures. I was told by my coordinator after the ceremony that he was the sole person who set up my wedding chairs. (Even though it was supposed to be the rental chair company!) He was even willing to shoot some pictures outside the state park to accommodate a special request (even though time didn’t permit it, we didn’t end up doing it). The bottom line was that he was more than willing and even recommended of a site to take the shots. Ladies and gents, if you’re looking for a photographer, go with Brandon at GIN AND SAKE. You won’t regret it. If you like his style of photography, he will work with what YOU want. He won’t feed you any fluff. If it’s not doable or realistic, he’ll let you know. Book him early though. He is patient, down to earth, and just genuinely such a great guy. He responds quickly, and will give you the time of day. You will not feel like another numbered client. You’ll feel like you’re one of his most important clients, even though I’m sure he has so many. You won’t even notice him taking pictures on your special day. He took so many great shots of the state park, he’s like a bad-ass photo ninja! My only regret is that I didn’t book him for a longer period. From what time I did purchase, I have the most priceless pictures. My only regret is that I didn’t tip him enough due to my budget and didn’t fully comprehend all that he did for me at the time. Some wedding boards will say it’s not a necessity to tip your photographer because he/she is doing their job, but after you see your pictures, you’ll wish you could give him the all stars in the night sky. And if I could I would. I’ll be back in vegas for our wedding anniversary. I hope he’s available to do a anniversary photo shoot! **Props to whoever did his website, because it’s encapsulates Brandon’s brand for sure.** Pros: BEAUTIFUL pictures ON TIME Listens and understands your wish list Great to work with Flexible Cons: - None I wish I booked more time with him (if that counts as a con) Pros: BEAUTIFUL pictures ON TIME Listens and understands your wish list Great to work with Flexible Cons: - None I wish I booked more time with him (if that counts as a con)

nd what Brandon delivered was well beyond our expectations. He made us feel comfortable, listened to our ideas and completely captured the day. He delivered the photos in 2 days…yes, 2 days! A good photographer is key for your wedding. You need to pick Gin & Sake. Don’t settle for anyone else.

ead of time, the day of is always going to be difficult. Well Brandon was by far the least stressful part of the entire day. He has such an easy-going personality, which definitely helped me stay calm when things got a little tricky. And while he was super relaxed he was also incredibly professional. He listened to what my husband and I wanted to be captured, and made sure that the photos reflected our personalities. And, to top it all off, he got us our online wedding album TWO DAYS after our wedding! We were still in Vegas when I got the email with the link to check out our photos. I know some couples wait weeks and even months before seeing their photos, but my husband and I were able to view our slideshow on the airplane ride home. If you are looking for a professional, stress-free photographer to be a part of your big day, I highly recommend choosing Brandon and Gin & Sake!

ecommend Brandon to anyone looking for a photographer who replies fast, is flexible and creates AMAZING photos!

seen amazing reviews everywhere for Brandon and I have to agree with all the 5 star reviews. He had all the equipment needed to take flawless photos even at The Neon museum where lighting is different everywhere.Our wedding guests and family all said he was the nicest photographer because he was so laid back yet assertive in moving people around in photos. Even when some of those same guests would be in his way trying to take photos on their phones he would let them take it and then step in. The best part of the using Gin and Sake was that as we were getting ready to board the plane the next day all of our photos were already edited and sent back with the rights and everything. That turn around was incredible and the quality of the photos were amazing as well. Also as a LGBT couple it is always nervous getting vendors who support LGBT but also know how to shoot LGBT couples. Brandon was so friendly and great at getting good poses and angles of us. I plan on coming back to Vegas in the future and using him again to renew our vows.

me to work with. Thanks Brandon!!

punctual with his responses and goes above and beyond with his ideas. We chose Gin and Sake because of their love of candid shots which is the same as ours. They know how to capture the moments without having to do too many posed photos. We couldnt believe that our photos were back to us within 4 days of the wedding day! And to such a high quality! Looking back on the photos Brandon knew exactly what to capture and when, each photo is unique and brings back a memory of the day. You barely even notice that they are with you the whole day (in a good way), but looking at the photos they seem to be everywhere all at once!!! Nothing was missed! From tiny details of cufflinks to big group dances, they captured it all. I truly would recommend them to everyone!! Personally any other choice but Gin and Sake would be a mistake!!

e moments that happen spontaneously.

through engagement & wedding day is so great. Great attitude & customer service!!

raphy services and pricing for our wedding. Our wedding was on the smaller side, and we only requested photography for half of the day as our reception was very informal - Brandon was the only option that gave us the right combination of quality and affordability. While other top vendors will immediately ask for prices in the thousands, Brandon was able to work with us within our budget. On the day of the wedding, I was frazzled enough with making sure I knew where people needed to be that I could hardly spare a thought for Brandon. But as it turns out, while I was distracted with not tripping on my heels, Brandon was working his magic all along. He was working solo for our wedding, and yet he seemed to manage so many different places and people at once. He had an amazing eye for capturing emotion, regardless of who he focused on. I don't know how he does it - it's like he has a preternatural sense for when a magical moment is about to happen. He was able to seamlessly get from location to location, help herd our guests (as well as the groom and myself) in a way that wasn't at all invasive, and when we went slightly over the original time window we had asked for, he didn't complain at all - if anything, he was eager to help us get more shots until we were satisfied. All of this in of itself would have been enough to merit five stars, but then Brandon somehow also managed to get all the pictures edited and uploaded for us in under eight hours! Under eight hours. I could hardly believe my eyes when I settled back in the hotel after our dinner and saw his email in my inbox! Most people I know who have gotten married have to wait months for their pictures to come back, but Brandon's prompt return of our photos made it possible for me to share wedding moments with family overseas who couldn't make it in almost real-time. It was above and beyond anything that my husband and I could have hoped for, on top of the photos being so brilliant. We had hundred of photos to sift through, helping us relive every moment of our ceremony. I really can't say enough about Brandon's work. I only wish he lived up in Seattle - I would hire him for everything and he'd quickly tire of me! Brandon - thank you, thank you, thank you. You have a real gift.

in a bridal magazine. Not only did the pictures turn out perfectly but Brandon was wonderful to work with. He knew exactly what the perfect shots would be but also adapted to any of our suggestions. He was so easy going and pleasant. We couldn't be happier!

probably the best decision we made throughout the wedding planning process. Brandon is so easy to work with and is ridiculously talented. Every single one of our photos is so unique and beautiful. He captured all of our favorite moments of the day without a single one of them feeling generic or forced. He kept us calm throughout one of the craziest days of our lives!

5 of our friends and family the most important part for us was making sure we had memories of all those that could come, and also really show who Sean and I were as couple. Brandon not only took the time to get to know us but also gave us so much information about other ideas for shots, venues and things we didn't know about rules and regulations in Las Vegas. Originally we had planned to get married in the Valley of Fires but Brandon's advice (and some external factors) led to use choosing another venue (The Grove) at the last minute and we couldn't have been happier. On the day he was so relaxed but in the most professional way making sure that key images were easy and so much fun to do. For Sean and I who are rather camera shy the other more candid shots also blew us away!! When we suggested that we might like to do post shots that were a bit more artistic he knew all the best places downtown and as the day was sweltering (August wedding) he was so quick and organised that we got all the right shots without standing in the sun for an hour! My bridesmaids were utterly thankful :) The most incredible shot he took actually had him quickly sneaking us outside during our reception dinner as the light over the pool was just right for that magic moment you hope to have on your wedding day and he got the shot in all its stunning glory! Our Fav! I think the best way to describe how over the moon we were was when we opened the shots for the first time and Sean and I had tears of happiness in our eyes as we relived every moment, which to be fair post your wedding is simply priceless!! Thank you , thank you, thank you Brandon for making the day and our memories AMAZING!!!

e authentically. I'm not a fan of posed photos, but he made them painless and they turned out beautiful. He was also able to turn them around for us to have much quicker than I was expecting.

!!!!!!! Brandon has somehow managed to capture the spirit of our wedding day perfectly. Friends that didn't make it to our wedding have said it's like they were there because they can just feel the emotion coming through from the photos. Our personalities have been summed up so well in the collection of shots we received. (Which turned up in my email inbox a couple of days after the wedding, before we'd even left Vegas to start our honeymoon!) He has caught every detail, every smile, every moment so perfectly and the whole story of our day has been told. We're from the UK so organising everything for our Las Vegas wedding from there was quite daunting. We flew over to check out wedding venues and meet with vendors about a year or so before our wedding. Brandon suggested a photo shoot while we were out there, but in fact as well as doing that, he ended up being our wedding venue tour guide, which was just so lovely for him to do, what with us being from out of town. Brandon made everything so easy for us and was incredibly polite, friendly and patient with me even with all my crazy bride question emails I kept sending him. We had our wedding ceremony outside at 3pm in about 45 degree Celsius heat and again Brandon was so patient and relaxed about it all, despite my limo arriving over 30 minutes late and cutting short his time in that venue. He stayed with us almost 10 hours that day and even managed to make us look amazing at the end of the night, at what I was sure was not going to be our finest moment! I'm so glad I went with my gut feeling about booking Gin & Sake and we would do it all over again if we could. Might have to start planning an anniversary trip to Vegas now....

but a good photographer would be able to make everything look stunning. I scheduled my Las Vegas wedding in early June for sentimental purposes. I interviewed 2 other photographers before Brandon, one of whom moaned about the possible temperature and the other who wanted to charge me $5,000 to start. When I went to interview Brandon, I was immediately drawn to his simple, clean, and upfront approach. He quoted me significantly less than the aforementioned vendors and included my engagements. When we received the engagements back I giddily knew I had made the right choice. They were everything I wanted and more, and our shooting experience with him was easy and genuine. He took the same qualities I loved about our engagements and took them to a whole new level for our wedding. This man shot for 6+ hours on the first 109-degree day of the season and I received my samples THE NEXT DAY, people. I am beyond thrilled with these photos and know that they are not only a beautiful memory but also a joy to display in my home. Brandon's work is vivid, vibrant, and saturated with emotional clarity. I would urge anyone looking to hire a photographer to go with Gin & Sake for an all-around wonderful experience.

ppier with Brandon being our photographer for the big day. A++++ to Gin and Sake. If you are waffling between photographers, I guarantee you are not making a mistake by going with this vendor!

are memories of our day with friends and family in the best light possible. We can't thank you enough! enoughcapturing ever

of!!! (He also sent us some of the proofs the next day - a 20 hour turn around!!) The photos are absolutely amazing. There are some truly stunning shots - I am blow away by some of our pictures. On the day of the Wedding both Brandon and Jill were super amazing - they made my very large wedding party feel totally comfortable, they came up with some really awesome shots and they stayed the entire wedding - 12 hours at a totally reasonable price. Prior to the wedding, my communication with Brandon was super! He responds quickly and even put in extra work to help us find a videographer, florist, etc. when we asked for recommendations. Book Gin & Sake - you won't regret it. Brandon is a true professional, super talented and a pleasure to work with. Highly recommended!!!
