I started shooting photos and video in Greece, and since moving to the US, I have dedicated myself to shooting weddings, elopements and engagements. I love being able to capture the love that my couples have for each other and the unique energy each couple has. I am always down to shoot in new locations and find the best place for my shoots!

Enea and Hailey were fantastic to work with!! I was extremely happy with how our engagement photos turned out. On our wedding day, they were prompt and ready to go. Hailey remembered all the specific shots that I wanted to get and was flexible with timing and getting extra shots that the family requested. The pictures are absolutely stunning. The video was just as incredible. The shots they got, the audio, the music, was all edited so beautifully. I have received so many compliments on how amazing the video and pictures turned out. They captured every aspect of our day that I hoped for and then some. I would recommend them to everyone :)

Naian Photography was wonderful to work with for our wedding day. Their communication style was so good - the photographer, Naian, was great at responding to our questions and making sure we were on the same page throughout the planning process. The quality of their work and value was also excellent. Naian clearly values her time as well as ours, which was greatly appreciated.

Hey, I'm Diep, the photographer at Warm Heart Photography. Based in Concord, California, I offer service around the Bay Area, and beyond. My goal is to sharpen my skills every day, serve my best, and create happy memories for my clients. Thank you for stopping by. I look forward to meeting you.

We are so happy we chose Warm Heart Photography (Diep) for both our engagement and wedding day photos. For our engagement shoot, she was incredibly friendly, responsive, and was very accommodating--even bringing a quick-change tent! She made sure to capture every shot we wanted from our shot list, and the photos turned out absolutely stunning and ethereal (exactly like we had envisioned). On our wedding day, Warm Heart Photography was equally amazing. Despite the hectic environment, Diep and her second shooter came prepared, was professional and adapted seamlessly to the ever changing environment. They worked hard to get every shot on our list, and the photos turned out beautiful and candid. (There were so many nice shots, that it was hard to choose our favorites!) They did such an amazing job with capturing everything on the day. We didn't have time to soak in everything around us, but with the photos, we were able to relive the day! Diep has a great work ethic and we wouldn't hesitate to refer her to our friends and family. We're so grateful for her talent, dedication, and kindness throughout the entire process. If you're looking for a photographer who truly cares about her clients and will do everything she can to capture your vision, Diep is the one!

Jeff Roush Photography 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Oakland, CA

I was born and raised in the East Bay Area (minus my years at Chico State!). I have been married to my wife for 13 years and am a proud girl-dad to my 11-year-old daughter. My real love of photography began in 8th grade when I took my first photography class. That first moment in the dark room when I saw my first photos come to life was magical and from that moment I was hooked. To this day, I experience that same magic as I capture special moments and create lasting images for my clients – it is that magic, my love of people and sharing in their joy that fuels my creativity and passion for my work.

Jeff Roush Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the beginning, Jeff's communication style was articulate, professional, inclusive, responsive, and clear, putting us at ease throughout the entire process. The quality of his work was captivating, polished, clear/crisp, balanced, and vibrant - the photos truly captured the entire story of our special day in stunning detail. Jeff was with us from start to finish, making our wedding day much more enjoyable with his optimistic and welcoming presence, even during some stressful moments beyond his control. We received so many compliments on the photos, and Jeff delivered them to us much faster than expected. We consider Jeff a friend after that day and can't wait to work with him again in the future. We highly recommend Jeff Roush Photography to any couple looking for an incredible wedding photographer!

  • Serves Oakland, CA

I'm a Bay Area native born and raised with a small stint in NY but I'm back, however continually on the move! I was raised by a single parent with my two sisters so family means absolutely everything thing to me. They are literally my biggest supporters and ultimate hype crew.

Torez's services are so much more than simply taking photos. She takes the time to get to know your story as a couple and your overall vision for your wedding She also maintained steady communication over the 8 month process with an initial zoom meeting followed by questionnaires and resources to assist with the planning process. It was so helpful to have the online guide as a foundation for our DIY wedding. Closer to the wedding she worked behind the scenes with our wedding coordinator to make everything flow seamlessly. On the day of, she brought her sister to assist with capturing behind-the-scenes footage and they both had the best energy! I felt very relaxed with them the whole day. All of our photos felt perfectly posed with very little fuss over or too much effort! Reflecting on the photos, I'm really impressed with all the candid moments she captured as we adventured around the city. Overall, Torez is a professional down to earth person who is genuinely excited to capture your love. I'm so glad we trusted her with being part of our special day!!

Aladdin Films went above and beyond our expectations. They have a lot of experience, and it shows in the way they made our wedding memories special. They’ve handled everything professionally, from our first meetings to getting things sorted with contracts and payments. At first, we were thinking of ordering them for just 7 hours, but after listening to their expertise we discovered that a full-day package would suit us much better. They instructed us during wedding planning and on our big day, they worked extra hard to capture every moment. Our wedding video and photos were not just nice; they were absolutely amazing. We've proudly shown them to everyone we know. I strongly recommend every couple to choose Aladdin Films for their special day – it's a choice you won't regret!
