Paris Karsh Photography

Paris was an absolute blessing and the shining star in our wedding journey. We were initially referred to her by our wedding planner after a disappointing experience with another photographer for our engagement photos. Meeting Paris was a world of difference – she connected with us right away, and after our engagement photos were redone by her, we knew she was the perfect fit. Her bubbly personality is infectious, and she instantly put us at ease. As first-timers in professional photos, Paris made us feel confident and comfortable throughout the shoot, and by the end, we felt like we were models! What sets Paris apart is that she never treated us as just clients; she embraced us as family. Our relationship with Paris extended over a year, as she was there for us during the planning of our California destination wedding. We had meetings where we shared breakfast and indulged in our favorite, dim sum. On our wedding day, Paris became more than just a photographer – she was every bride's 'hype girl.' She helped calm my nerves and repeatedly reminded me how beautiful I looked, which meant the world to me. Paris and her team were exceptional on our wedding day, and everyone was truly impressed. Paris's genuine enthusiasm and constant support throughout the day made it clear that she's more than just a photographer – she's a friend. My husband, Matthew, and I often joke that Paris fits seamlessly into our family. She's wonderfully diverse and shares our love for Asian food, making her feel like one of us. Paris captured our wedding day exactly how we envisioned it, and we couldn't have asked for a more perfect photographer. Despite a tight schedule, Paris went above and beyond, staying extra hours at the reception to capture more moments without even being asked. This gesture meant the world to us. If we could, we'd give her 6 stars – she's that exceptional. If you're considering booking with Paris, don't hesitate or think twice. She's more than amazing – she's truly special. We have so much love and gratitude for her; she's not just a photographer, but a photographer with a heart of gold! We love you. Thank you for capturing this special day for us! It was the best day :) Can’t wait to see the rest of the photos! With Love, The Chows

I am so incredibly happy we had Paris on our team for our big day. From the beginning she was personable, easy to work with, communicative and such a professional. She listened to what we wanted, offered suggestions, worked with timelines and made my life so much easier. Also helps that she’s just the sweetest ever. We got our sneak peak pics back (in 2 days!!!) and I’m in love. If these were all I got I’d be totally happy and I cannot believe I get to see even more later. Thank you for everything Paris, you have a gift!

Paris was an absolute dream to work with!! From the first phone call, we knew we loved her positive energy on top of the work we’ve seen from her! We loved her style and knew she’d be a good fit for us. Our engagement shoot went amazingly! Paris gave us so many suggestions for shoot locations and we ultimately decided on Presidio Park, which had a mix of nature and cool architecture. She made us feel very comfortable and was able to capture SO many fantastic photos in so many different setting and really gave us a huge variety of backdrops and types of photos (ie candids, posed) and gave us great direction on what to do! We used our engagement photos for SO many things; Save the Dates, our website, gifts for our family, our phone wallpapers, and ultimately framed photos that decorated our wedding! Fast forward to the wedding, we had a detail call with Paris to go over everything: timeline, family shot lists, must-have photos, etc. Paris arrived early on site on the day of and was able to accommodate all of our photo requests that we had as well as all the different family member combinations! Our photos were STUNNING and we received 80+ sneak peek photos just 36 hours after the wedding! We went through each photo and were just in awe of one photo after another, as she allowed us to relive our special day. She captured our day so beautifully and we’ve been receiving compliments left and right from just the sneak peeks! Paris is fun, bubbly, has a great energy to her, and is TRULY talented at what she does!! We would definitely book Paris over and over again for our professional photography needs! ❤️

As a type-A bride, (whether I like being called that or not) I never had to worry when it came to Paris. She added to my vision, topping it off with her talent and iconic expertise in color grading. There were 3 things I looked for when it came to the coloring for photos - and it was to capture the following altogether: 1. Me and my husband’s skin tone 2. The perfect shade of green with my white dress (green is my favorite color so this had to be right! Plus, the venue is FULL of green.) 3. The best night shots in action So color, color, color!! On top of that, the search for a photographer with this talent and a personality to match was… quite difficult. Let me tell you, I’ve searched high and low!!!! I even kept an entire list of each vendor and Paris literally checked off all the boxes. From the first conversation to even after our wedding, she understood and added to the assignment when it came to my theme, and added to my vision and made it even BETTER. On the day of my wedding, I even freaked out (I use that word lightly) a bit before the ceremony, and Paris worked with the vendors to make sure I was comfortable. I’ve also noticed she just met a ton of the vendors for the first time, and she hit it off right with them - like she's worked with them plenty before! Paris is so cool yet professional and I want another excuse to come to San Diego and work with her again!!
