Tanya!!!! Thank you SO much for everything with Amber's and Grant's wedding!!!! You were such a joy to work with, and Amber and I were raving about you at the end of the night. đđ
You were so sweet and so chill, and you made everything so fun for everyone!! â¤ď¸â¤ď¸â¤ď¸
It was such a joy working with you, and we can't wait to see all the beautiful photos when they're ready!!!!! đđđ
The absolute best part of our wedding weekend was having Tanya photograph our welcome party and wedding. We enjoyed our engagement shoot last year and could not wait to have her at our wedding! Her clever approach to finding unique shots and lighting has blown us away. Although the day of the wedding was somewhat stressful , Tanya and her second shooter were our sense of calm. We trusted them and let them work their magic. We cannot wait to get our wedding photos back! Thank you Tanya!!
Tanya did our engagement pictures and wedding pictures, and I want her to be my photographer for life. I just got the wedding pictures from her. I am looking through them and I can remember people's words, hear people's laughs through her pictures. These are not pictures, these are stories. She is amazing. I cannot emphasize that more. She is a storyteller. I highly recommend her.
She is also kind. She has an amazing work ethics. And of course, she is an artist.
Tanya is THE BEST. I mean the best. She captures the magic in every moment. We were absolutely honored to have her do our wedding. From our first Zoom meeting with Tanya, I knew we needed to do everything in our power to have her! She knew exactly what we wanted and went above and beyond. For this level of talent, she does not charge enough. My mother in law calls her "the ninja"; she was everywhere, but was never in the way. Our pictures turned out absolutely perfect. Her direction and vision are incredible. She made it so easy on us and our families. If you want a photographer who goes above and beyond, has your back, and genuinely is gifted in what they do, HIRE TANYA!! We will forever tell everyone we know about Parada Studios!!!!
Tanya was so fun and down-to-earth while photographing my friend's wedding. I've been a bridesmaid quite a few times, and I always notice how the photographer treats the bridal party. She felt like she was part of the group and was interested in making sure all of us were having a good time and were taken care of. That really stood out to me and I hope one day she will be available for my wedding too. Cannot recommend her enough.
Tanya is simply the best - like the song.
But in all seriousness, she overdelivers. Her communication is incredible, her energy as a human being puts anybody (even the most photo-conscious people) immediately at ease. Her eye as a photographer is, well, I mean, if a picture is worth a thousand words, those images speak for themselves. She's truly an artist with tremendous range as a photographer.
Honestly we felt like we were getting a heck of a deal. She is beyond fairly priced - very much to the customer's advantage - for her services.
I think the most important thing however is the fact that she is a genuinely good person. Every choice she makes - even who she hires as her second shooter - is deliberately thought out. And all the people she brings on are top notch and just a pure delight to be around. You will feel like you're in incredible hands with her, and very cared for. She puts her client's needs first and is the epitome of professionalism. A dream to work with.
I can't recommend her enough. Hire her. You'll be glad you did.
AMAZING photographer. Tanya made our engagement session vision come to true. She was so down to earth. Made of feel so comfortable and kept us laughing. Tanya is an amazing individual. She is energetic, engaging, creative, professional and funny. She created a magical engagement shoot. We had the best experience. Our photos are everything we could have asked for and more. đ
Tanya is hands down the best photographer. She immediately made us comfortable and walked us through how to pose before diving into our photo session. Tanya made sure to deliver on our vision and took into account the inspiration for the shoot. She was knowledgeable about the location we shot in and was super fun to work with!
Her turnaround time was quick and I was blown away by her work. The pictures she provided are some of my absolute favorite! If you're going back and forth, just book with Tanya anyways b/c she's amazing!
Tanya did a phenomenal job! From the moment she arrived at our venue she let us feel natural and came up with some phenomenal shots. We had to move our wedding up 1 week at the last second due to the pandemic and changing stay at home orders and she made her schedule fit to match ours, on very little notice. You could tell how much she enjoys her craft and really makes it an art form. I wouldnât want anyone else taking wedding pictures for us or anyone else I know.
Tanya is the absolute BEST! She made all our engagement shoot dreams come true đ so easy to work with, taught us all the right angles, and all around a gem of a human. Our pictures turned out better than I ever could have imagined. Thanks a million, Tanya!!
Tanya exceeded our expectations for both our engagement shoot and wedding! Very punctual and at both events she was there before we arrived, ready to work! She is very thorough and went above and beyond to make sure she understood our vision. She was very open to our culture and quickly learned and understood the moments that were important to us and our family. Her action shots and sharpness in her photos are unmatchable! She has such a sweet and genuine personality and is extremely patient. We highly recommend Tanya and look forward to working with her again in the future.
Parada did an amazing job with our engagement session and with our wedding photos . Not only did they make us feel super comfortable, our families and friends also felt super comfortable with them. Everyone was asking us for there information after the wedding! They are very fun and professional. The work they do is great. Our pictures are better than expected and they managed to capture every moment . I would recommend them to anyone.
From positivity, funny, good vibes, great team work to punctual, great price, complete package, working with Parada Studio family was truly an amazing and unforgettable experience. We love and appreciate you guys so much!!! Thanks!!
How do I even begin to express how awesome Tanya and Maurice are?! They captured my surprise proposal at Griffith Observatory and did an incredible job. I'm a professional wedding photographer myself so choosing the right photographer was a big decision for me. I live in Pennsylvania and was planning everything from the other side of the US which was difficult at times. Tanya went to Griffith and scouted a bunch of different locations for the proposal and photos afterward which was beyond helpful. Tanya captured every moment of the proposal perfectly. We spent a couple of hours together through sunset and into the night doing some portraits which turned out phenomenal and perfectly captured the surroundings of Griffith. We even hiked up a massive hill in the dark to get an epic night shot with the stars that overlooked Los Angeles.
If you're on the fence about booking Parada Studio, this is the review that should put you on notice! Just do it! You won't regret it and you'll have beautiful memories for a lifetime!
Tanya from Parada Studios was so wonderful to work with. Not only is she exceptionally talented at her craft but she is so easy to work with. Her photography is incredible â she has a keen eye for capturing moments and bringing everything together (lighting, background, and us). We had so much fun on our engagement shoot with her. I am extremely uncomfortable in front of the camera, but she put us at ease immediately. Our photographs turned out beautifully and reflected our natural selves! We looked like we were having a genuinely good time â and we were! Moreover, Tanya is very responsive, punctual, flexible and extremely professional. We had a limited time to shoot because of our travel schedule (we were in LA for only a short time) and Tanya worked swiftly and efficiently yet captured all the moments that you would want to have. We had a variety of shots and styles (from the dramatic, to the whimsical, to the romantic, etc. - we even had some fun, goofy shots which we loved!) We would have loved to have her as a wedding photographer as well but she did not have availability that day. Words cannot express how appreciative we are for her beautiful work! We canât be happier with how our photographs turned out.
Amazing photos , and amazing photographers! Our shoot was so much fun. They make you feel so comfortable, they have very creative ideas , and they will do ANYTHING to get the perfect shot ! We had our engagement session in Malibu and it was below 60 degrees and they got wet with us just to capture amazing photos! If youâre looking to have a fun time , amazing photos, and photographers who get up in there with you to get the best shots , you need Parada !
Parada studio went above and beyond to achieve the shoot I envisioned for our engagement photos. Tanya and Maurice arrived prior to our shoot to seek out the best stops for our photos. They both made my fiancĂŠ and I extremely comfortable in front of the camera, which made the shoot stress free and enjoyable. We had a wonderful experience both during and after the shoot. The photos came out absolutely beautiful, and I recieved the photos quicker than I had anticipated. We are very grateful to Prada Studio for capturing this special moment in our engagement. Thanks again Prada Studio for your professionalism, unique artistic perspective, and a pleasurable experience.
I highly recommend Parada to anyone who wants professional, exquisite and breathtaking wedding photography.
We are absolutely thrilled with the photographs from Tanya and Parada Studio. They are friendly and professional and produce outstanding work. Tanya and Maurice did such a wonderful job and we are so grateful they were able to be part of our wedding on such short notice.
The pictures of my wife getting ready look like stills from a movie. Dramatic yet candid and simply beautiful. The pictures of the wedding are unbelievable. They look like they could hang in a gallery.
I have a knack for always looking super dorky in pictures, but Tanya had me looking like a GQ model! Seriously, I've never looked this good.
Tanya and Maurice were so friendly to everyone. They really felt like old friends and fit right in with the wedding guests. After the wedding, they kept in touch with frequent updates and sent us some amazing preview pictures.
We received the pictures a few weeks later and relived all of the wonderful memories. She caught so many wonderful moments. Each photograph is a work of art.
Parada is the best! Book them!
Tanya was as top notch as they come. Not only an amazing artist with an impeccable eye to capture special moments, but also doing so in a relaxed and fun fashion. She made the experience a truly enjoyable one that took any uneasiness out of the equation. She was detailed in her plan but flexible to make for an individualized experience. Would highly recommend her to any and all friends.
Never in my life have I had so much fun and felt so comfortable getting my picture taken! And the pictures reflected that too. It was actually a really special day for my fiancĂŠ and I. Heâs more of a âdudeâ and not used to getting photographed but throughout the day, Tanya and Maurice helped us not only pose but to see the vision behind it. Each picture didnât look staged because each moment was actually raw and genuine. We were able to interact and be ourselves and everything felt natural. Tanya was very timely with editing and getting back to me. The pictures took our breath away, not your usual stock photo poses yet still romantic and classy. Highly recommend!!
Tanya Parada is amazing! She went above and beyond for our wedding to make sure that we were comfortable. Even when things didnât go the way we initially planned, she had a quick solution ready and made our day even more memorable. She has worked with a few of my friends photographing their weddings and they all rave about her and her work. You need a good photographer? Say no more!:)
We loved getting the chance to work with Parada photography. Tanya was extremely helpful and patient with us during our engagement photos and for our big day! She really made us, and myself especially as the bride then, feel comfortable and confident. They totally welcomed our ideas and props we brought and was so cool about working them into our session. We received sneak peeks soon after and received our photos back quickly as well! She above and beyond to give us photos that will forever be some of the most important photos we will have. This review is (almost!) two years later and even now, Tanya has been so helpful and easy to communicate with for any question weâve had thus far. We canât recommend Parada Photography enough to anyone looking for a photographer for any occasion! Canât wait to work with them again. Thank you Parada!
Tanya Parada is such an exquisite person as it is, her personality reflects inside out. But her behind the lense and as business women she knows exactly what she is doing. Not only considering the clients, she visions things and is not afraid to go far and beyond for the clients. My couple and I enjoyed the little adventure we had with her from going out to Death Valley, sure it was a drive but worth for. The whole car ride was like if we were long time friends already, directing us what poses to do, feeling comfortable with her, knowing our best angles and every time she takes a shot showing us, we couldnât get enough! Well punctual with different sceneries, lighting & above really passionate with her work. Loved working with Parada Studio & beats the fact of not having a wedding, these pictures bring so much more happiness that will last forever, highly recommend.
Tanya is so professional and talented! She did such a great effort to make us feel relaxed and made the session enjoyable. Plus, she was even willing to drive far just for a shoot in one of my favorite national parks. You can tell that she loves to do this and I like people who are dedicated and love their job.
Tanya and her associates were the best choice we couldâve made! They shot our engagement and wedding photos under one package and included a beautiful wedding book as well. So worth it! Tanya and her team are super professional and she is very personable as she always made sure that we were having an enjoyable experience through and through on both our engagement shoot and our wedding day and that was absolutely awesome of her and sets her apart from the rest. They were above and beyond what we expected and would recommend her to everyone for their big day! Thank you Tanya Parada and Studio!
I am extremely happy to have chosen Parada Studio to shoot my wedding. As soon as I got engaged I knew they would be the ones we would hire for this job!! They took the time to reach out multiple times beforehand to make sure what my husband and I wanted to do,times, places & even help me organize my wedding day which I am very grateful for! Tanya & Maurice definitely looked for those special moments that made this event extra special for us, they were very detailed, while shooting we felt very comfortably with them and shared many laughs. The photographs from your wedding are really the biggest and only memory you can be able to re live that day with, so when I grab my album & flip through the pages....I know it was the best choice we could have ever made!! Thank you so much! đ
I hired Parada Studio for a "Trash the Dress" session. Honestly, I think every bride needs to have one. Post-Wedding Blues are real.
The "Trash the Dress" photos Tanya captured were so meaningful to me, more than my own wedding photos. It's just you and your husband. No distractions.
My husband does not like to be photographed at all. But Tanya had such an easy-going personality, she made him feel at ease and we were both able to relax and enjoy creating a memory together.
Tanya took us to a cliff over-looking the ocean, and then we went down onto the beach and walked into the ocean together. I wanted gorgeous, dramatic photos and Tanya really delivered. Our photos are beautiful, I love getting so many compliments on them.
Parada Studios Delivers!!!!! Tanya & Maurice are incredibly attentive , friendly , detailed , prompt and extremely talented . Their talent shows through their work. My wedding photos and wedding video are breathtaking. I never get tired of looking at my pictures and video. I highly recommend working with them in any capacity engagements, weddings , maternity etc
Tanya was absolutely amazing! We could not be happier with our photos! She was so professional and made us feel so comfortable that all our photos turned out amazing, and it was really hard to pick! I have gotten so many compliments on our main engagement photo. It really encompasses who we are as a couple. Parada Studio was somehow able to imbue it with our personalities and our own senses of humor and style. I could not be happier.
I can't begin to explain how amazing Parada Studio treated us while we contracted them. The flexibility they showed along with their friendly attitude was the perfect thing to have at both our engagement session and our wedding. Their style and creativity in both their pictures and videos are amazing! Highly recommend contracting them!
Parada studio was great to work with! We couldnât have chosen better photographers for our engagement session and wedding pictures. They were easy to work with despite the big distance as theyâre located in California and weâre in Chicago. Thank you Parada Studio for helping make our special day memorable!
Amazing Photography! These two have a gift for capturing the best kodak moments. I get teary eyed every single time I see the pictures of my mom and I that Tanya took. I received numerous compliments on my wedding pictures from so many friends. Destination weddings aren't always the easiest but Tanya and her husband are naturals and also very flexible, they captured the shots as if they had explored the area many times before. Truly grateful to have found them.
We were lucky enough to enjoy Paradaâs skills and talents for our engagement photo shoot. They were fun, made us feel completely relaxed. PDR is not quite our thing, and they made it feel like 2nd nature! Both photographers are an absolute joy to spend the day with. They have an amazing talent for catching (and creating) fantastic lighting and have techniques you wonât find other average wedding photographers using. If you want truly unique magazine cover worthy photos your friends will drool over, they are your guys! They catch both comfortably stylish and tastefully staged/posed photos, along with those special intimate in action moments that you thought youâd only have yourself to remember. Our only regret....we waited too long to book them for our wedding and by the time we were ready to do so, they were already booked for our date! So if you arenât sure who to go with for your photographer....DO NOT MISS your opportunity to have the BEST and book them immediately! Donât 2nd guess it....DO IT!!!! You wonât regret it! We still follow their work on social media even now a couple years later, and their skill has only continued to grow and blossom (surprisingly because they were already AMAZING!!!) we canât wait to find any excuse to book them again!
