Ron was the photographer for my daughter's wedding this past August-yes in the middle of a pandemic! Ron was a real trooper, first photographing at the outdoor ceremony site at San Ramon by Wedgewood Weddings, and then accommodating us when we switched the reception venue 3 weeks before the big day to the groom's family's backyard. Ron was a joy to work with, so easy going and it was evident that he loves what he does. He worked very well with our videography company and they did not get in each other's way and both were able to get the perfect shot/footage. As for Ron's photos, they were GORGEOUS! He has such a gift and the pictures all together told the story of the magic that transpired that day. My daughter and her now husband were ecstatic with the photos as were the parents! We would not hesitate to hire Ron again. Thank you Ron! :)
I am a photography freak, so having high quality photos was a must for our wedding.
Let me tell you, Ron totally surpassed our expectations!! He met with us prior to the wedding to get a run down of the day, (to prioritize) and was on top of every photo-worthy moment. His positive attitude and passion for what he does, really made it easy to work with him. I know wedding photos typically take a long time to get back, but what we especially appreciated, was the teaser he sent.
It was a huge bundle of photos, enough to calm down my impatient nerves LOL.
Ron, thank you for everything, seriously. We are so pleased with our experience, from start to finish, and anyone who works with you, would agree <3

Epic sunset photos! He really knows how to capture special moments. He did our engagement photos as well and believe me I plan to already book for future family photos. He was very patient with our already drinking groomsmen and really easy going. Highly recommend and pricing is reasonable for work done. Everyone loved our wedding sneak peaks so far!!
My wife and I were absolutely blown away by the quality of work from Ron Essex Photography. We have recently received our sneak peak photos from our recent wedding and our jaws hit the floor with how amazing they looked.
Along with their amazing photography skills are Ron and his partner Cledia's warm, personable, and easy-going personalities.
We both emphatically recommend Ron Essex Photography, you will not be disappointed!
He was very professional and we can see he enjoys his job. He made us felt so comfortable and the pictures are excellent. I couldn't ask for anything else he and his team were amazing.
We worked with Ron for our June 2019 wedding, and we are very happy we went with him! He is very fun and easy to work with, and you can tell he's having a great time capturing the day. We received the sneak peeks the very next day, and the final images within a month. We are very happy with the service we received, both leading up to and on the day of our wedding. His price is very reasonable and affordable for such wonderful service and products.
Ron Essex is a wonderful photographer! He and Cledia make a great team and were so easy to work with! My husband and I generally don’t enjoy being in front of the camera, but Ron’s friendly and down-to-earth personality made the whole process a lot more comfortable. He was able to capture so many good moments and we received a nice mix of portraits and artsy shots at the end. Our wedding albums are beautiful and he had a quick turnaround time for sneak peek photos and the full photo gallery too. They truly care about capturing the entire story of the day and creating lasting memories. Ron and Cledia were very helpful, professional and accommodating with our questions and concerns. We highly recommend Ron and would hire him again for future occasions!
Ron is simply one of the best photographers out there PERIOD!!!!
His attention to detail is impeccable. When looking for a photographer, we were interested in someone that connects with our vision. Ron and Cledia were forward thinking, implementing our vision, while even going over and beyond the call of duty by making sure we were on schedule with things, coordinating with other members of the wedding party and helping us with small odds and ends ("day off"). It was not their responsibility nor was it part of the contract. They just go the extra mile. That's what I call excellent customer service.
One thing I was looking for was someone that would be punctual , professional, and personable. I can attest, Ron is all of those things and his performance was outstanding. Our proofs were given to us as agreed and the quality of the photos were absolutely perfect.
The photos are high quality and will present a story line. Through them, he will capture the joy, happiness, and love that comes together on a wedding day. I would personally recommend Ron to anyone who is interested in capturing this life memory in style. You will not get any better.

We had such a great experience hiring Ron to photograph our wedding day. He did an amazing job capturing every detail of our wedding. He was extremely organized and on top of every detail. I would absolutely recommend Ron to do any type of photo shoot for you, may they be wedding, family, or any special event. He is such a nice guy and will happily go above and beyond to do a great job for you! Thanks Ron!!
Ron and his wife Cledia were a delight to work with. They were very affordable, professional and highly skilled at getting the best wedding photos of everyone. They took so many beautiful and fun photos at our wedding reception we had a hard time narrowing them down for our wedding album. I highly recommend them!
Ron did an awesome job with our wedding photos. I was really surprised he came back with so many great shots. He really captured our wedding day the way I want to remember it. He was pleasantly professional, and exercised a lot of patience. I will definitely use him again if I ever get remarried...just kidding. I look forward to an opportunity to use his talent again.
Best photographer ever! Ron was super nice and patient. We love all the images he took and definitely made our special day even better! He didn't make me feel like I was in a rush... even though my family took FOREVER sometimes.
Ron is a remarkable photographer! He captured so many great moments. He asked if there were specific shots we definitely wanted and he shared some ideas he had in mind as well. He makes you feel comfortable and relaxed while shooting. He got our photos back to us super quick too! We loved him so much that we continue using him for our family shoots now. He's the perfect photographer for anyone's special day. We highly recommend Ron!
One of the reasons why we chose them was because they were willing to work with our budget and our vision. They were readily available if we had questions throughout the whole wedding process. During the day of they got things done they weren't pushy at all and were very fun to work with. The pictures so far from the sneak peek have come out amazing! Especially the sunset pictures, and the candid moments of the two of us throughout the day. We are very pleased with then and would 100% would and have recommended them!
Ron was prompt and very professional. He was patient with lighting and setting to achieve the best possible photographs. Very easy to work with and would highly recommend Ron Essex photography for your professional photography needs!
Our experience with Ron Essex was wonderful. Ron pays attention to small details that on the day of the wedding you may overlook. Both Cledia and Ron have a ton of ideas for poses and for how to make you feel comfortable. Our pictures came our great honestly and there were many amazing shots. From the day we met them to talk about the timeline of events, Ron gave us ideas about what places would be better for certain photos and we ended up changing our initial plan regarding where to take certain shots. We were so glad to have met with them before the wedding to talk about all the details and brainstorm together. Ron is passionate about his work and we could see that when talking with him, in his pictures, his ideas, and his attitude. We highly recommend Ron Essex Photography for your special day.
I would highly recommend Ron Essex Photography. He is very professional and his photos are flawless. He took beautiful pictures of our venue and bride and groom.
Ron is a very energetic man who has the phenomanal eye when it comes to your perfect wedding photo’s. When comparing prices his work out beat everyone that was priced higher. He will think of ideas for photo’s in your wedding that you wouldn’t have even thought of.
