We met Alberto and Lisa through our wedding planner’s recommendation. Upon seeing their portfolio, we fell in love with the way they captured moments, the color, and their composit...
ion. We had a pretty specific cinematic look we wanted to capture in our photos, so when we had our meetings we discussed our goals and shared some examples of what we had in mind.
Immediately, they understood our needs and were able to come up with multiple fitting location ideas for the shoot. Not only are Alberto and Lisa wonderful human beings, they also kindly led the conversation on many occasions throughout our brainstorm phase, which were extremely helpful to us since we had no prior experience or idea about the procedures on wedding photography. They helped us walk through every step of the way, and were able to professionally guide us into getting the perfect shot we were looking for.
During our engagement photo shoots, Alberto and Lisa took us to a location that perfectly matched our imagination. They helped us be comfortable throughout the photoshoot and directed us to get the best shots. Although we were all exhausted by the end of the day it was without a doubt one of the most fun we had as a couple in a while. For our wedding day, Alberto and Lisa went above and beyond, being present at every memorable moment and swiftly capturing it through their artistic lens. The photos came out absolutely gorgeous. As artists ourselves, we applaud Alberto and Lisa’s experience, versatility, and sensibility. They are truly the best at what they do, and we’re so glad to have gotten to work with them.
Lisa and Alberto from Peardon Carrillo Photography are incredible wedding photographers! They know how to capture every special moment of a very special day!

r engagement! It was a perfect day! We were nervous at first, seeing as it was our first engagement photo shoot, but Lisa and Alberto made us feel right at home. They spent quality time with us and we had a lot of fun together. They had been to our location before, so they knew the area and knew exactly where to go to get the perfect shot. Our photos came out perfectly! We got to relive that day all over again. They really captured our love for each other and the beautiful landscape we walked through. I look forward to working with Lisa and Alberto in the future!

My fiancé and I did engagement session with Peardon Carrillo Photography (Lisa & Alberto). We felt camera shy in the beginning due to the fact that it was our first ever photo sho...
ot, but they made us feel extremely comfortable throughout the process. We specifically wanted photos with more natural poses and they helped us through that to ensure that we got the shots that we wanted. When we received all our photos, we were surprised by not only the quality but the quantity. They really worked with us on the editing style we envisioned and we were really happy with how the photos turned out! Needless to say, we highly recommend working with Lisa & Alberto for a seamless, enjoyable photo shoot experience.
I first met Lisa and Alberto in 2011 when my husband and I we’re looking for a photographer to shoot our engagement photos. I absolutely loved what I saw on their profile of all ...
the previous couples that they have shot. Upon meeting them we were sold! They were kind, easy-going, Organized and most definitely talented. After our engagement shoot, they did our wedding, maternity photos and when our daughter was born they shot her newborn photos. By this point they became family. We trusted them to capture the most important moments in our lives and we have never been disappointed. They capture every moment, every emotion and turn it into art! It’s just amazing what they do! I recently had planned a wedding for a dear friend of mine, and she remembered after all these years the photos that Lisa and Alberto had shot for us. And she said she must have them, and so she did! I had the pleasure of working with Lisa and Berto again. For as last-minute as these plans were made, they were still just as fantastic as always! If you’re looking for a wedding photographer in the greater Los Angeles area, look no further because they are literally the full package. Not only are they professionals with infinite amounts of experience but they will basically be your friend, photographer and wedding planner! That’s how organized they are. I’ve worked with a fair amount of photographers and I have never met two people that are so passionate and dedicated to the work that they do. And the best part is they edit every single photo that they take!! No other photographer that I’ve ever worked with has offered that . Anyways thankyou Lisa and Alberto for always being fantastic!
Alberto and Lisa are the best! They captured the most important day of our lives with style, grace, and artistry! They made us feel comfortable, relaxed, and beautiful on a very ...
stressful day! They showed up on time, with amazing equipment, and prepared to capture our special day! With all the stress of the day, Alberto and Lisa brought peace, confidence, and serenity to the moment! Thank you Peardon Carrillo Photography!
We had Lisa and Alberto come out to take newborn photos two weeks after our son was born. They were AMAZING!!! Not only did we get great photos of our little one, but they were bot...
h professional and personable during the photo shoot - sensitive to both our baby's needs and ours - very tired parents. It was a joy to have them here. Their photos were artistic but also they worked efficiently as a team, always collaborative and creating on the spot. The photos were both candid and posed - both of which takes quite the patience and talent to capture both. We're so delighted they were our photographers and we highly recommend them!!! They're photos are displayed in our living room :)
Lisa and Alberto are an incredible team! They can capture the mood and moment in such a beautiful way
and the exact way that you envision it! They really do their best to get to...
know you as a couple and your family
dynamics. With weddings being such a whirlwind of a day, they document every special moment so you can relive
those feelings just by viewing the photos! They are totally worth the investment! These photos are the bulk of my
memory of my wedding day! :)

m not a fan of having my photo taken... ever, and was nervous about the whole day. They made me feel at ease and beautiful. I had seen what they did for my friend, but never in my wildest dream did I ever think I would ever have a similar experience. Above and beyond is the best way to describe this talented team.

e national park. Since we live out of state, Lisa and Roberto set aside plenty of time to go over every piece of the shoot and helped us choose each outfit that would be the best fitting for day into the evening time. You can tell how much they care about you and put in a huge effort making us feel like we are their only priority. We are very excited and can’t wait to see what they do for our wedding!

nd directed us in order to achieve some drop dead gorgeous images. When I was looking through portfolios, theirs stopped me dead in my tracks. Lisa's background in high fashion photography translated so elegantly to our wedding photos. We not only looked beautiful but really cool too! There is just no better choice than Lisa and Alberto, they are professional yet kind and warm. We have referred them to so many of our friends who have recently gotten married and everyone's images have been stunning and so creative.
Lisa and Alberto are fantastic! They are so talented and consistently produce beautiful photos. They captured my engagement, wedding, maternity, my son’s newborn, son’s first year...
cake smash, second maternity, and daughter’s newborn photo shoots! And I will be hiring them again for all major family events. Revently, they took photos of me very pregnant, with our active 2 1/2 year old son in very hot weather. They were very kind and patient and the pictures were amazing as always. Most recently, they took photos of my newborn daughter AND my 2 1/2 year old. I can’t say enough great things - the scheduling, the preparations (what to wear), the photo shoot, and of course the pictures. I’m so happy that we met Lisa and Alberto after finding them on the Knott so many years ago!

We couldn't say enough great things about Lisa and Alberto. They demonstrated professionalism and care every step of the way, from our initial meeting till this day. Their passion,...
creativity and attention to details played such a significant role in our wedding process. Our friends and family all recognized their hard working and sincerity from the wedding day. Their photo productions are absolutely beautiful and artistic. We are very happy about our choice and we highly recommend them!
Lisa and Alberto were the best photographers, I would say artists, we could have found for our wedding! Many many thanks and a long overdue review. We had a crazy wedding - getting...
all of the family members, insane number of siblings and even more insane number of unruly children to take a pictures (especially group pictures) looked like an impossible task. Well, the guys did it brilliantly and with great artistic approach - the pictures really look like paintings! Just phenomenal! I can't even describe how cool the pictures of me and my husband are. I am not talking about beautiful wedding pictures - they are, of course - but about the nature, the sunset, the contrasts of colors and themes. We absolutely love them. Ah, and we got a few pictures to choose from too! Thank you again, guys!

ent, and to my surprise Lisa and Alberto right from the start were so accommodating to meet us late in the evening during a busy work week for both of us. They were so nice, explained everything step by step and their work was amazing! We talked for several hours and then towards the end we both pinched ourselves because we finally decided to hire them, and they never let us down! They made things so simple for us and were very responsive to this nervous bride! They even helped me design a wedding timeline which really helped make my day allot simpler with both our large families! During our wedding day they gave us great direction and found places to photograph us at our wedding venue that we would have never thought of! They organized and ran our wedding day with ease and comfort. They were never pushy but always guiding us gently with humor and their knowledge. Everything ran so smoothly that many times we forgot that they were even there so it let us enjoy our wedding day to the fullest. They even asked both sets of our parents and their friends at the reception if they wanted any photographs and of course our parents absolutely loved that! Afterwards, we got nothing but rave reviews from all our family and fiends about them, and the best part was after they finished our photo's we were absolutely amazed at the quality and numbers of images we got from them. It took us forever to review them but when we finally did we were so happy, because they recorded everything perfectly, and we even got some amazing dramatic images that are definitely going up on one of our walls at home! Thank you Lisa and Alberto you guys made our day special and we will never forget our wedding day! We loved all our images!
On the day of they were exceptional. They managed to handle my entire gigantic family professionally and lightheartedly. The photos that were taken were creative, interesting and j...
ust plain beautiful. They think on their feet, and are very adaptable. They listened and heard all the details we were looking for and were able to produce the photos we really wanted. Their work ethic is second to none. They did not stop taking pictures all night. They're both very fair minded people, the price is more than reasonable in this crazy expensive wedding market and it was an absolute pleasure to work with him. Also they promised that we would have the photos back very shortly after the wedding. And they followed through on that promise. We received the pictures within 2 months on the wedding day.
We highly recommend Lisa and Alberto. You will not regret it.

e director and he's an artist so we wanted someone with our same aesthetic. Lisa & Alberto are true artists. They are so passionate about what they do and their passion is infectious. We are beyond thrilled with our photos. There are so many good ones I'm not sure how we're going to choose them for our album. Thank goodness they are doing a pre-design for us so it will help us decide. If you are real photography lovers you will be extremely happy to have this team shoot your wedding!! I'd give 10 stars!
My now wife then fiancé found Peardon Carrillo on The Knot and she couldn't stop raving about them. She bugged me until I finally sat down and checked them out. She was so right. C...
ompared to the other wedding photography portfolios she had shown me they really stood out. We set up an appointment and were so happy that they were cool down to earth people. My wife and I are both camera shy, but we felt so comfortable with them that we knew we wouldn't have any problems come wedding day. And it couldn't have gone smoother. They helped us plan the day so that we'd get the best and the most photos possible. Our photos turned out amazing. I never knew we looked that good, haha. If you want to spend your wedding day with really chill cool people who make you look better then you could hope for this is your team. Lisa & Alberto will rock your wedding photos!!
We were so happy we found Lisa & Alberto. We connected with them right away. They answered every question we had, and we had a huge list, lol. They were very happy to explain the w...

We had no doubt our photos would be good, but we were completely blown away when they delivered our photo gallery. We could not be more happy. They gave us such a variety of different photos and they captured every intimate moment so beautifully. Thank you guys so much. Your passion for your art really shines through! We couldn't recommend them more highly!!

st genuine people. We absolutely loved working with Lisa & Alberto, and we highly recommend them to everyone who wants amazing photos of their wedding day!!
When searching for my wedding photographer I looked at tons of photography portfolios, read all the reviews and finally narrowed the field to 3 photographers. I reached out to them...
all and Lisa and Alberto were by far the most responsive and easy to communicate with. I loved the idea that they were a male and female team, working together, shooting and assisting one another to capture the most creative and personal photos that you can imagine. We first met for coffee and talked about what we were looking for in a photographer and they explained how they work. I knew right away that we would be very happy with our photos if we worked with them and they by far exceeded our expectations. They were beyond generous with their time and expertise leading up to the wedding and even helped me think of things to do to make the wedding extra special and the day go smoothly. Lisa and Alberto even suggested meeting at our location before the wedding to do a walk through of photo ops and this really made a huge difference in my comfort level on the day of the wedding, which of course makes for better pictures! They were so great to work with on the day, the perfect balance of being there in the background, capturing special moments without interfering, but also being able to "direct" us in great shots we may not have thought of. They really are a joy to be around and put us and the rest of our wedding party at ease during the entire shoot. I was sad to see them go at the end of the day! They both have an amazing eye and are so skilled at what they do. You will get shots that no other photographer would think of. They really went above and beyond, which is a true testament to their love and commitment of what they do. I am absolutely in love with my wedding photos and am so glad I chose to work with Peardon Carrillo Photography!
"When we started to look for photographers for our wedding, we wanted to work with someone who was professional, talented, and flexible. We wanted to have amazing pictures to capt...
ure our one, special day and we were more than satisfied with the results. Working with Peardon Carrillo Photography was just that and more...it was a great experience! We were able to get a team of photographers that were full of ideas, suggestions, and helped capture our wedding to the fullest. We got much more than we anticipated with Peardon Carrillo Photography and would highly recommend their work! We were extremely satisfied with the amount of pictures taken and the variety of angles, creativity, and lighting methods used. As a team, Lisa and Alberto worked to be creative, original, and truly captivated our emotions and moments on our wedding day!
My husband and I both come from Hispanic backgrounds therefore both of us have big families. With that being said, we were nervous and somewhat anxious about how and where we were going to take all of these pictures or at least try to incorporate as many as possible. However, to our blessed surprise, Alberto and Lisa were able to orchestrate and strategically plan our day in order to have the opportunity to not only take pictures with most of our family members, but wedding guests as well. I’d have to say that this truly allowed for us to be carefree, enjoy our evening, and we had the best day of our lives. Our photo's look amazing, and now we can re-live our special day every time we look at them! We would truly like to recommend Lisa and Alberto for their fantastic collaboration and amazing talent!"
First I want to start off by saying that never did my wife and I expect to meet such a passionate, creative and artistic pair of photographers...They are down right the perfect ble...
nd of friendliness and professionalism. They have a very keen eye for taking romantic and unexpected shots. I'm not the photogenic type but the photos they captured of me and my wife were breathtaking. The amount of patience and passion that they have for their wonderful works of art far exceeded our expectations. Proving to us that they are not afraid to go the extra mile looking at every little detail imaginable to give you on camera, that perfect moment. If you took the time to read this review and for some reason have any doubt about these amazing people- toss that doubt and hire them. You will be so happy that you did.
All I have to say is WOW. I had the good luck and fortune of having Alberto and Lisa shoot my wedding and engagement photography. I stumbled onto their website while I was planning...
my wedding, and I immediately loved their photos. Their photography is artistic, romantic and a little edgy. I booked them for my wedding hoping to have pictures as beautiful as the ones they showed me from their portfolio. What they produced far exceeded my expectations. They are true artists and know how to capture the best possible shots and very unique moments. My pictures are fabulous, I honestly did not recognize myself in many of the photos. These are the best pictures that have ever been taken of me in my life. They made my husband and I look amazing, if I do say so myself. I don't know what kind of magic cameras they use, but I kid you not, they will make you look better than you ever imagined. My husband is very camera phobic, and hates to stand to pose for pictures. Lisa and Alberto are very easy going and true professionals, they are very easy to work with and are great at making you feel comfortable. After a few shots, Alberto showed us some of the pics on his camera and we were so amazed. My husband actually warmed up to the camera after seeing the great shots we were getting. I have so many beautiful photos from the wedding and engagement session, now my only problem is deciding which ones to put in the album and display. I have so many beautiful pictures to choose from that it's actually hard to decide...there are too many great photos then I have space on the wall for. I cannot thank them enough for capturing the most important day of my life....and making my husband and I look so good in the process. I will cherish these photos for the rest of my life. If you are looking for outstanding photographers and amazingly beautiful pictures, then look no more!
Lisa and Alberto did amazing work for our wedding and we would highly recommend them to anyone who wants organized, hard-working, and talented photographers who produce a plethora ...
of pictures in a a variety of styles. The day started bright and early. Lisa and Alberto showed up bright-eyed and bushy tailed and started clicking pictures right away. Of course, the schedule got thrown off but luckily, we had listened to Lisa and Alberto when planning our timeline, and they were completely right. (When they say it takes twice as long as you think it should, they are totally on point!) They rolled with it and made sure they spent time with the guys and the girls to get tons of both candids and set pictures pre-wedding. Lisa and Alberto's direction and ability to work with everyone was probably the best aspect of the day. They worked well with just the two of us to create imitate and loving photos, they worked with the bridal party to capture all of our personalities, and they even worked well with our families (no small feat!) They are firm with everyone to get the shots you want, but also flexible and funny to keep people happy. In addition, Lisa and Alberto were not at all intrusive during the wedding ceremony, a fact we and our guests appreciated. Despite the fact we rarely saw them, they produced and incredible number of pictures that captured the emotional moments. It was the same for the reception. Getting candid shots is very difficult and we were amazed at the number of fantastic shots they took that were just part of the night and were not posed. The number of pictures we were provided with was a bit overwhelming! The thing we liked about them, and what others have said as well, is that they the don't seem like the "typical" wedding shots. We feel very lucky we hired Lisa and Alberto for our wedding. The pictures they took completely captured our day and every time we look at them, we cry!
This review is long overdue. My wedding was on July 2, 2016 and it turned out to be an amazing night, better than I could have ever anticipated. However, like most brides would te...
ll you, the process leading up to the wedding was extremely stressful. There were many important and expensive decisions that had to be made. One of the major decisions was selecting a photographer that you can trust to capture all the important moments in the night and make you look good in them. I must have spent months looking at different photographers, discussing packages and prices, and deciding which fit our personality and needs best. After meeting with Alberto and Lisa I immediately knew that they were the right choice. They showed me their work and I was blown away with how artistic and beautiful their photos looked. They suggested that we do an engagement session first to get comfortable before the day of the wedding. Even though we were going to skip an engagement session initially, after speaking with Alberto and Lisa, we decided to do one. They were instrumental in selecting the engagement session location and had some great suggestions with styling and how to cut costs. I was exceptionally nervous the day of the engagement session and told them that I was uncomfortable in front of a camera and usually turn out awkward in pictures. They rose to the challenge and didn’t skip a beat. They were amazing at giving direction and making me feel comfortable. We spent hours with them taking photos but it felt like we were only there for an hour. They delivered the photos to us sooner than expected and there were so many pictures to choose from. I was once again blow away at how beautiful the photos looked and how they had an artistic element to them. After the engagement session, they focused their attention on our wedding day. They asked me to send them inspirational photos and provided me advice on which locations would be best for shooting pictures on our wedding day. All of their advice was extremely helpful in figuring out what we wanted. The morning of the wedding was very stressful and emotional. There was a lot to do and I had 9 bridesmaids in the hotel room with me so things felt extremely chaotic. Alberto and Lisa showed up to the hotel room on time and were immediately ready to go. They were great at providing direction and organizing our excessively large bridal party. They were tremendously flexible with their time, extremely energetic and professional . They delivered over 3,000 pictures from the day of the wedding and captured so many great memories. I was thrilled to look at the photos and was stunned with how many beautiful pictures they took (this is coming from a person that normally hates every picture of herself). I would without doubt recommend them for wedding photography and strongly recommend an engagement session as well. They truly are professionals, produce great work and are just fun and easy to work with.

aph our wedding. They captured all the special moments of our wedding so beautifully, and we are not very photogenic people but we were blown away by how they made us look! They are truly gifted photographers as well as great humans. We can't recommend them more highly!!
We searched high and low for the perfect photographers for our wedding because photography was the highest priority for us. We knew from speaking with friends and family that the ...
photos were the very most important part of the wedding. In the end all you will have are your photos to look back on to remember your most beautiful day. We found Lisa & Alberto online. We were drawn to their photos right away, and we knew we wanted them to photograph our engagement and wedding. We most definitely chose the right people! Lisa & Alberto were so great to work with. They helped us come up with great ideas for our engagement photos and we had so much fun with them! We both have issues with getting our photo taken and they really put us at ease. It was like being photographed by friends! Then the wedding. And OMG we were blown away by the amazing photos. Everyone was stunned! We didn't have the budget for an album but after seeing the photos our families pitched in to buy one for us because they said they were the most beautiful photos and they had to be made into an album! We simply cannot recommend them more highly. If you truly want amazing photos hire Peardon Carrillo Photography, Lisa & Alberto are the absolute BEST!!!!!
Alberto and Lisa were the best! They worked so hard to give us beautiful artistic and creative wedding images. We had a warm summer wedding with a tight wedding schedule to boot,...
but they pulled it off . All with a smile. My family and I are still talking about our images. We loved them, and we got so many great images. We had a very hard time choosing the best for our wedding Album. Luckily, Peardon Carrillo Photography helped us through it! LOL! We definitely plan to refer them to our friends and family! So remove any doubts, these 2 are the real deal!
Alberto and Lisa are great! We are so glad that we found them. We interviewed quite a few vendors for our wedding and among all of the vendors, they were the most dedicated ones. ...
They have a big passion for photography. They can't stop shooting when they see good spots and they don't argue about the time. Some vendors just come and finish their work, and I really don't like those. Alberto and Lisa have real passion and they work very hard to produce high quality photos. They also drove 2 hours to check our venue before the wedding and they found great spots for us. We didn't even know the hotel had those places. Before the wedding, they emailed us some tips such as always look for the cameras and so on. On the wedding day, they worked very hard and utilized most of their time to take good photos of us. A few days after the wedding, my parents asked me for the wedding photos since they were leaving for a trip. Alberto and Lisa worked hard and quickly sent us way more than what they usually send to customers early on. They always try to work with you and provide the best solution. And we love all of the photos! I look really gorgeous in every photo! My husband likes photography and he can tell what skills they are using taking our photos. We look not only beautiful but also natural in the photos. Some photographers use a lot of photoshop to make a perfect you, but it's just not you anymore. We don't like that. Alberto and Lisa did a great job photographing and presenting the natural us. We love it! And they took some photos of us after the sunset on the beach, and they had to use special lighting since it was already dark. We can't believe how great the background lighting looks like when it comes out! It's so beautiful and it's like an art piece. We love it so much! Our friends also commented that these photos must have come from a skillful and professional photographers because they don't see this high quality photos often. We also had an engagement session with them. Before the session, they also called us to discuss details of the session such as what we want out of it, what is the most important to us, what to bring etc. We wanted to shoot with a horse, and they worked with us for the location, helped us find a stable near a park, working on the park permit and so on. They were very helpful and patient. Afterwards, we ordered a metal print from them and my husband found it a little different from what we thought. We thought a metal print was like a print we saw at our venue. Alberto and Lisa went to search around for that photo and finally found it in a locked room and sent us a detailed email explaining how different this one was from the one we ordered. We really appreciate their attitude to their job. We have no doubt their career is successful because they just work so hard and they are very responsible for their customers. They try to take care of every single detail. They are also good examples for us a young couples to learn from for our careers. We have to recommend them to everyone!
Lisa and Alberto were amazing!!! My fiancé and I got married this past May at an equestrian center. Lisa and Alberto were so creative both on site and in post production. They visi...
ted the site before the wedding so they could have ideas of where they would be shooting and which locations would offer the best shot. Also, they were able to seamlessly create tasteful photos that incorporated our theme. They were very personable and easy to work with. My family has very "unique" dynamics and they made everyone feel comfortable and included. We would HIGHLY recommend them!!!
Alberto and Lisa completely captured our wedding day. Everytime we look at our photos from our engagement and wedding, we feel as if we are reliving the day all over again. The qua...
lity of the pictures is amazing, you can not get amazing pictures like these, which were captured by Lisa and Alberto, anywhere else! From the moment we met Alberto and Lisa, we felt completely comfortable with them. We knew that no one else would sufice in being our photographers than Lisa and Alberto. Alberto and Lisa were there for us always. They were there always for our questions and concerns. They made out engagement shoot amazingly beautiful and fun to do. We had our engagement shoot in Mexico and it was truly a wonderful experience we will never forget. Lisa and Alberto had the best ideas and chose fantastic locations for us to take photos. After a person marries the one they love, all you have is your photographs, and we love them! All this because Alberto and Lisa were our photographers, and that is one decision Juan and I will never regret!
