Thanh was amazing to work with. He responds quickly and even helped me select best proposal location and was very knowledgeable; exceeding my expectations for the proposal turn out. He was on time, flexible and partnered well with another company I hired to set up proposal scene. He also took a ton of photos at no extra charge. Photos came out amazing and his use of drone footage really elevates the moment! I would def recommend trusting him with any life event especially proposals.

We couldn’t have asked for a more wonderful videographer to capture our wedding day. From the very first meeting, they made us feel completely comfortable and understood exactly what we wanted. On the wedding day, they blended in so naturally—it felt like having a good friend behind the camera.Every detail was captured with so much heart—the laughter, the tears, and all those little moments we didn’t even realize were happening. The final video brought us right back to that day, and we’ve already watched it more times than we care to admit! We’re so grateful for their talent, kindness, and patience. Thank you for giving us a keepsake we’ll cherish forever.

My husband and I hired Thanh Trinh to capture our wedding, and unfortunately the results were disappointing. Especially, considering the cost and expectations we had for a professi...

onal photographer. To start, the photographer arrived 20 minutes late to our ceremony, which delayed the start of one of the most important moments of our lives. That alone was stressful and unprofessional. When we received the photos, we were extremely disappointed. Most of the photos were overexposed and washed out, making our skin look pale and unnatural. Even after edits, the images still lacked depth, color, balance, and detail. Many of our guests' photos (taken on regular cameras and phones) actually came out clearer and true to color than the ones we received. There was also a lack of creativity in shots. The posing, framing, and composition felt basic and uninspired. When we brought up our concerns, the photographer dismissed them completely, saying it was "impossible" for the photos to be of lower quality, and never responded afterward. That kind of attitude and lack of accountability is extremely disappointing. We trusted this photographer to capture our special day, and it's frustrating to feel so let down, both by the quality of the work and the professionalism. I would strongly recommend looking elsewhere for a wedding photographer who values timeliness, creativity, and communication.

Thanh went above and beyond and he was absolutely amazing!! He had clear communication in the couple months leading up to the wedding, and gave so many ideas and recommendations on...

pictures, poses, and ideas through the entire day. He showed up early, and was willing to hop in our car and go down the road for some bridal party pictures, as well as for our first looks with my husband, my father and my bestfriend. We are so grateful for the poses he recommended, and for the amazing photos that were taken by him. We had the pleasure of getting a couple drone videos done as well, which turned out amazing and it was great to see all our guests having fun on such a beautiful day. Throughout the whole day he worked so hard to get pictures of our set up, close ups of our decorations and food/drinks, and so many other great photos with all of our guests, and giant family. By the end of the night, he was able to transfer 3000+ unedited photos straight to my laptop, and they are some of the most beautiful pictures ive ever seen. He exceeded our expectations with everything, and we are so very grateful for his professionalism, and expertise in capturing such beautiful candid and genuine moments throughout our day. We will be able to remember and cherish our perfect day so clearly thanks to Thanh, it will be a day we never forget! HIGHLY RECOMMEND for any service you are looking for! I even had a few guests text me after the wedding looking for his information as there are some family friends planning an upcoming wedding next year, and they all LOVED Thanh. He was so kind, helpful, and all around INCREDIBLE to be around, and we couldn't have asked for a better photographer to help capture such a beautiful and perfect day.

ng guidance allowed us to effortlessly exude comfort and naturalness in front of the camera. We were thrilled to have Thanh's services for two memorable occasions: SF City Hall and a reception dinner, resulting in an impressive collection of 2500+ unedited pictures and videos capturing genuine, candid moments. During our visit to San Francisco City Hall, Thanh displayed extraordinary patience as we explored multiple locations. His skillful photography expertise ensured the capture of breathtaking, unedited shots that exceeded our expectations. I would like to take a moment to express my heartfelt appreciation for his unwavering dedication, even in the face of chilly weather at our final destination. Thanh's vibrant and upbeat demeanor consistently uplifted both my husband and me, making the experience truly enjoyable. Moreover, for the reception dinner, Thanh went above and beyond by bringing along a team of talented photographers and videographers. Their presence resulted in an abundant selection of 1,500+ pictures and videos for us to choose from, exceeding our expectations. The exceptional services provided by Thanh and his team have left us extremely satisfied. If the need for photographers arises in the future, I would undoubtedly rebook Thanh without hesitation. While we still have some follow-up for editing a few images and a highlight reel, we felt it was essential to share our amazing experience as soon as possible.

Thanh was INCREDIBLE!!!! He arrived early and left late to make sure he got the USB of photos to us that night!!!! My entire family LOVED him too... he was so polite and never once...

was intrusive or blocking the view of our guests... he was always there getting photos of ALL the BIG & Special moments... he had a lot of creative ideas and I just loved having him there with us!
