I can’t recommend Jose enough! He did an incredible job capturing our couple’s photos, and what really stood out was how wonderfully he worked with my child. It’s not easy keeping a then 2-year-old engaged, but he was so patient and made the experience fun for everyone. The photos turned out even better than I imagined. Not only is the quality top-notch, but the pricing is very reasonable, and they were incredibly flexible with scheduling. If you’re looking for a talented, professional, and accommodating photographer, look no further. We’ve done multiple shoots with Josh and We’ll definitely be booking again!
We had our engagement photos done with Josh and he by far exceeded our expectations! He listened to exactly what we wanted and envisioned for our engagement photos- Josh made it come to life! He made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and was so caring! We aren’t from the Bay Area but Josh was able to recommend some great location to take photos! We can’t wait to have another photoshoot with Josh. Would definitely recommended! HE IS AMAZING AND SO TALENTED!
I scheduled with Josh and his business partner Gavin for my wedding in San Jose during Fall. Saw his work in Instagram and was impressed. A great guy, very charismatic but there were a couple of things that sour the experience. We explained how we weren't from the area so we didn't know any good spots for our engagement pictures which his services included. He offered some but wasn't really great at explaining what his vision for the spots were so we pick one at random and hopef for the best. The pictures did come out great but felt like we weren't really set up to succeed. On the wedding day he asked if his coworker Gavin could tag along to also photograph and even film at no extra cost which we accepted gradly. Again the pictures came great but not as many mainly of us as I would like. There was definitely some stunning ones I still cherish. Afterwards we received the pictures relatively quickly, about 2 weeks later but no video. We touched base 6 month later about the film and we had told they were backlogged due to all their work and he would get back to us. It's been 2 years since the wedding and still no film. I did message him if he had the original pictures so I can have them and touch based on the film again both by email and Instagram but have received no communication.
I really enjoyed Josh and Gavin as individuals and they were fun guests and took great pictures. It's the little details before and after than keep me from giving full 5 stars, sorry
Josh has been very professional and easy to work with during our engagement photo session. He even provided my fiancé and I posing tips which we thought were incredibly helpful. Looking forward to having Josh photograph us on our special day because we know we'll be in good hands.
Josh and Gavin are simply amazing! They gave us the best and most memorable photoshoot + engagement video we could have ever hoped for.
From the very beginning, it was clear that they are consummate professionals. They set up early Zoom calls to discuss our vision in detail, ensuring that the fully understood our preferences and ideas. Their punctuality, attention to detail, and thorough preparation set a solid foundation for the entire project!
They showed genuine interest in bringing our vision to life and went above and beyond to cater to our preferences. They made sure every shot, angle, and every moment was perfect. They put in extra time and effort, making multiple EXTRA suggestions, just because they were extremely invested and passionate in the vision we were trying to create.
Lastly, what truly sets Josh and Gavin apart is their personalities. We had the most fun we've ever had on a photoshoot. My fiance and I are not the most photogenic couple, but they made us feel comfortable and at ease throughout the shoot. Their friendly and approachable demeanor, combined with their ability to give amazing prompts, helped us look our best! The soot was filled with laughter and genuine moments, and it felt like we were spending time with friends rather than just photographers.
Josh and Gavin made the entire experience enjoyable and memorable along with some beautiful photos and video. We are so grateful for their exceptional work and would definitely recommend them to others.
The team was very professional and clearly are experts in this field. A week or two before the shoot, my partner and I got into a Zoom meeting with Josh to conceptualize what our photoshoot is gonna be. He was very thorough in asking us questions about our preferences and personalities. It was clear that he genuinely wanted us to get the most out of this whole endeavor and that he's giving his 100% in ensuring we get what we want with the pictures.
On the day of the chape wedding, he was there early and took a couple of shots in the lobby before the county staff let us in for our reserved time. He took candid shots of the whole ceremony and the usual with each side of the family and all together. Even afterwards, we took more pictures in the outdoor chapel with everybody. Then we went ahead and changed locations by his recommendation. It was kind of windy that day but he was very patient and with his assistant's help, the pictures turned out great!
Definitely beyond grateful that he was available in his busy schedule to do this photoshoot with us. It is so hard to choose favorite pictures from all that he took since they all look great! After the photoshoot, he did mention that it typically takes 2 weeks for him to process all the pictures (depends on how many pictures as well), but my husband and I let him take his time editing the pictures as well since we are in no rush to get them anyways. Even though this was the arrangement, he still sent out updates that he was still working on his edits here and there which we feel he didn't need to since he already provided the estimated wait time but appreciated his gesture. His editing style is very natural and a bit dramatic leaning with the vignettes and play in contrast to have that magazine effect - which we appreciated. I'm pretty confident that if there's a specific style you are looking for him to do, he can execute it with his skills and experience.
Throughout the photoshoot, it was such a fun experience since he had a lot of recommendations of poses we could try doing. He was very flexible in having us do poses he put in in place and having us do what we wanted. Not only that but he was also honest about giving us immediate feedback if what we suggested for poses won't look as good as we think it would and would suggest a better take. He is a very chill guy and puts you at ease given the already stressful day a wedding just innately puts the couple into.
If you are debating doing your wedding photoshoot with Josh and SkyTouch Studios, I highly recommend just biting the bullet as he is such a pleasure to work with. His professionalism and expertise in his craft is impeccable. He genuinely loves helping couples immortalize moments of their wedding day in the way that's unique to each couple by having that interview prior to the day and conversations throughout the photoshoot.
We loved Josh and Gavin, the duo were a blast to work with and understood our vision from the engagement shoot to our big day. They were easy to talk to and really connected with our party. We love the style of photography Josh and Gavin do and really recommend their work. Such a friendly duo.
Josh is such a nice guy but I can’t help but say my overall experience with him just was not great. While like I mentioned, he’s a really nice guy, he really did not do his homework for our wedding, and did not deliver on what he promised. For paying over 3k for our photos, I really wish I had paid more for a more experienced and more seasoned photographer. The photos he provided and the work he performed for our wedding was incredibly sloppy. Also, when I followed up to ask about something else regarding if he still had some other originals because I really disliked his editing, he completely ghosted my message. I think Josh is a great guy and has a lot of potential, but my husband and I were definitely disappointed in the work he provided. Something as important as wedding photos should be taken very seriously, they can’t exactly be redone and Josh was clearly unprepared for our big day. Wish you the best Josh but I can’t recommend your services.
Josh and the SkyTouch Studios team were absolutely amazing. The amount of communication and attention to details were amazing. He listened to everything we had to say and made our day so wonderful. We for sure are going to use his services again for our big celebration next year.
Update 2025: Josh and his team, once again, were amazing for our big celebration! The level of professionalism was what we expected and more! He made the planning process so seamless. We are very glad that we went with him and his team this second time around. We recommend to book him, you will not be disappointed!
I am very pleased with the service from SkyTouch Studios. Highly professional, yet personal. Josh and his team are passionate about getting the best shots in any environment (indoor or out) and they truly can capture the moment. I highly recommend working with SkyTouch!
Josh and the SkyTouch Studios team did an amazing job on my wedding day and such a pleasure to work with since the beginning of my engagement. We booked Josh for a separate photo shoot prior to our engagement shoot, and we knew right away that he had to be our wedding photographer. We are so happy with the outcome of our wedding video and all of our photo shoots. My wedding ceremony was held at Mission Carmel and they respected the area for the church ceremony. I highly recommend hiring SkyTouch Studios to capture one of the most important days of your life.
Working with Josh has been a real pleasure! He is very committed to his work and produces excellent images. His work speaks volumes but I want to praise his hard work ethic and ability to communicate. Throughout my experience, it has been very easy to talk to him about what the hopes of the final images will be. He has the ability to grasp the vision and it is very evident he is passionate about what he does. Thank you Josh for all the amazing images receievd! Hope to work with you again in the near future!
Josh and his team captured all the energy and feels from our wedding day. Their professionalism was great and we felt very comfortable working with them. And to top it off, they worked really well with our photographer which was a plus for us.
I personally have hired Josh for a number of events (photoshoots, birthday parties, photo booths, family portraits) and Josh and his team were hired for my best friends' wedding for both photography and videography. Let me tell you, this man is talented. The photos he takes are amazing. He truly captures beautiful moments that make you relive that moment in your head. He makes you feel so comfortable in front of the camera and he is very patient. I have officially made him my go to photographer for any and all my special events. Hire him for yours, and you won't be disappointed.
Josh from Skytouch shot our engagement/civil wedding shoot which we used for our Save the Dates and will use for our Big wedding day! We will also have him and his team for our Big day next year! I can't say enough how responsive, accommodative and friendly Josh was. With some life events happening between talking to him in the 1st consultation he accommodated to these major events and was so helpful in making a customized package just for us. His photos turned out amazing, capturing us and making us so comfortable. Thanks Josh! We look forward to working with you again!
When I first contacted Josh via knot, he was very responsive and did a consultation for my wedding ceremony & reception days. He was informative and helped me decide what package to use. His prices (prior to inflation) were very reasonable and his website had many pictures to give me examples of his work. I felt very pleased to have him and the team work during my two days. There were some misunderstandings on my end as my mom was helping financially to hire Josh and the team. So there were some expectations she had that were not clarified prior to the video/pictures posted. So there were some changes made to the original video and Josh was awesome to make those adjustments. Josh and the team were creative and helped make some of the amazing pictures and video. I recommend SkyTouch!
There is not enough that we can say about Josh and Franz of SkyTouch Studios. The day of our wedding we had a different photographer/videographer booked and they canceled the morning of our wedding! After reaching out to a few people, we got in touch with Josh and Franz and they were able to come out to our venue in San Jose the same day, within a couple of hours. They literally saved our day. Without them, we wouldn't have captured any of our wedding.
They were so easy to work with and a lot of fun. The photos and video came out AMAZING! 10/10 for sure! They captured the vibe and essence of our wedding with a ton of candid photos of us and our guests. I would highly recommend them to anyone I know! I can't thank them enough for everything.
Josh brings a high level of interpersonal skills and experience in photography. He is constructive in ways that complement our style and comfort. I highly recommend SkyTouch Studios!
Josh is an amazing photographer!! His eye for detail is astounding, and beyond his technical expertise, he is a joy to work with, and he really made our wedding day a breeze. He knew when to blend into the background and when to assert himself to get the best pictures. And he really did get the BEST shots. The photos are amazing, a work of art and we will be able to cherish these memories forever because of him. HIGHLY recommend hiring Josh. He goes above and beyond for his clients.
