Jonatan Saine Photography

y clearly; he was transparent and honest the entire time. He took the time to get to know our story, our needs, and our vision. We always felt heard and understood, which made booking him a breeze. Once we secured our wedding date with Jonatan, he continued to impress us. When we met him for our engagement session we felt very comfortable working along side him. He offered guidance and tips in such a kind way since we were new to the photo shoot world. After this session, we received our pictures very quickly and we LOVED them! As the wedding date drew closer, Jonatan stayed in constant contact with me to plan the "must have photos", timeline, and more. He always was patient, available, and friendly as we worked together. On the day of the wedding, he and his second photographer arrived on time, dressed to impress, and wearing a smile. They shot all the photos we requested, and then some! After the wedding, we once again received our pictures very quickly and we could not have been happier! They were absolutely stunning! When the high-end album arrived our hearts were jumping for joy. Jonatan is an amazing person and photographer, anyone would be lucky to have him capture yourthis special day. Cheers!

s stressful than it could've been. He and his assistant were fantastic with family and friends, herding everyone when needed. The pictures were delivered punctually and most importantly my wife was happy! The Italian handmade photo album is a nice touch that he added as part of our package, which he worked diligently to get us by the holidays. Thanks again!

shot, and made sure my then-fiance and I felt comfortable and less nervous. He was on top of it for our Long Beach wedding as well, we didn’t have to worry about a thing and the photos & album turned out beautifully!! We still get compliments about both our engagement & wedding photos. Couldn't be happier working with Jonatan and was definitely a great investment to preserve our memories forever – thinking about having him take our next holiday family photos ☺

ted a customized package that not only fit our budget, but in my opinion added extra bonuses that are unheard of in the industry without being charged an arm and a leg. From the pre-meetings, to the day of, even after care, Jonatan was incredible! I am so thankful I took a leap of faith and selected him as our photographer. Being a bride can be very stressful, but he and his assistant made the process simple, fun, and it flowed together well. Our wedding book came out gorgeous and reminded me of a fairy tale! Seriously, best decision ever to hire this man!

vorite restaurant. Even after all of that planning, something felt absent or missing. It was at that moment that it occurred to me how special it would be to capture the moment with photos. After doing some research online, I came across Jonatan Saine Photography. The wonderful reviews and locality in Aliso Viejo made them the quintessential choice. After speaking with Jonatan on the phone it became apparent that I made the right selection. The proposal and photo shoot afterwards could not have gone any better, and I decided that same night that I wanted to book Jonatan for our wedding as well. While planning our wedding, Jonatan provided periodic updates and recommendations to enhance our wedding day. In addition, Jonatan recommended an amazing videographer team (Nineteen Studios) that he had previously worked with. The whole planning experience felt very personable, and allowed us the flexibility to plan every aspect, while eliminating some of the stress of the wedding preparations. Fast forward to our wedding day on April 16, 2016. As chaotic as a wedding day could possibly be, Jonatan could not have been easier to work with. He carefully planned and coordinated with our wedding planner to ensure that our timeline was made, and that everything ran smoothly. In addition, he made sure that we were able to squeeze in some extra photos after the ceremony with just the two of us. Both the wedding and reception photos were absolutely beautify and we received numerous compliments about how polite and professional Jonatan’s team was. Following the wedding, we met with Jonatan to go over wedding album styles. It was very refreshing to see the wide assortment of colors, material, and types of books that could be produced. After carefully picking out the photos and the style of the book, we anxiously awaited delivery of our finished albums from Italy. When the albums finally were delivered, Jonatan made it a point to personally hand deliver them to San Jose (where we now live). That final point illustrates the type of character and willingness that Jonatan has to go the extra mile for his customers. From proposal to marriage, Jonatan Saine Photography has been there through it all. We could not be happier with our decision, and hope to someday work with Jonatan again. The beauty of his photography, captured in our brilliant wedding albums, will be memories that we forever cherish and hold close to our hearts. With Love, Chris & Charis Schaffer

ot only is he fun and easy to work with, but he is very on top of it. Jonatan also cared a lot about what we wanted as a couple and went the extra mile to make sure we felt beautiful and special on our wedding day. The bonus with Jonatan is that he is even a one-stop shop–he did our engagement session, wedding site, wedding photos, and wedding album! All of which turned out absolutely beautiful and so beyond our expectations. We could not be happier and would recommend Jonatan and his team to anyone looking for a great photographer.

t a winery near Yosemite and Jonatan made the trip up there and did an amazing job. It was like having another family member there. I cannot speak enough praises about his work, and about him. Our wedding album is amazing. My wife and I both highly, highly recommend Jonatan for any of your photo needs. He's a good guy, and does great work."
