Hiring Khoa was one of the best wedding planning decisions my husband and I made! Our whole experience with him was fantastic - I can't say enough great things about him! Literally, from the day when we first met where he invited us to his house to get to know us, to the wedding day where he was so on-point with his schedule/shots, up until the end where we met up for him to show us all the fabulous pictures! Khoa did such an amazing job on our wedding day; he managed to capture so many wonderful moments, even those we missed! He was so professional and respectful to everyone around him, and exuded such a fun and positive energy!! I had guests coming up to me telling me how great he was! My husband and I are not the most at ease in front of the camera, but he made us feel so comfortable and gave us all the directions we needed to capture a beautiful shot. Not only is Khoa amazing in what he does, he truly is a wonderful person and he strives so hard to make our day so special. Th... Read moree photos exceeded my very high expectations, and we couldn’t be more thrilled that we found this incredibly talented person! Thanks, Khoa, for being so fantastic!!

Khoa is an absolute magical wizard with a camera. For starters, just as a human being, he is awesome. He is one of the kindest people I’ve met, and he is just great to be around. My Fiancé and I never felt uncomfortable or awkward. I never like the way I look in pictures, and I am completely in love with every single photo he took. Khoa knows what he’s doing and was great at adjusting us so that we looked our best, and even though photo shoots are so out of our comfort zone, somehow we looked and felt so natural. His focus is capturing connections, and he is so successful with that. We love adventure and nature, and he somehow captured everything we love in our engagement photos at Yosemite National Park. I can not say enough great things about Khoa, and I have never been more impressed by an artist. He loves what he does, and it shows. He truly goes above and beyond. Please do yourself a favor and book him for everything! We can’t wait to work with him again!

We won an engagement shoot with Khoa and spoke on the phone for a while before the actual shoot. We all got to get to know each other and found out we had common interests and loved to explore/travel. We decided to do our engagement shoot in Yosemite. Khoa drove all the way from San Diego to meet us early in the morning to start our shoot! Even though this was the first time we all met, he made us feel very comfortable and made the process SO easy! He is very good with direction and has a great personality. Not to mention he always played good music to get us to kind of relax in front of the camera. He knows how to get us to laugh and be candid which reflected beautifully in our photos! From before the shoot until the very end when we saw our photos, his service has been AMAZING! You will not regret going on an adventure with Khoa to create such beautiful art/memories. We can't thank you enough!!!

5 stars isn’t enough!! We had the BEST experience with Khoa as our photographer. He did our engagement photos, wedding ceremony and reception. Picking the right photographer for our wedding was super important for us – especially being a full-time Art Director. Hiring Khoa honestly became one of the best decisions throughout our entire planning process – we are so glad we did! Not only is he a wizard with the camera, he fully invests himself on getting to know you as a couple. He feels more like a good friend than just another vendor! Looking through our wedding photos now feels like we are reliving every moment of our special day! During our ceremony and reception, Khoa was able to capture so many heartfelt moments of us and our guests. He has such a talent of capturing natural light and creative angles, all without needing to pose or interrupt us throughout our event. We will cherish our photos forever thanks to Khoa!!

Choosing Khoa as our photographer has been one of the best decisions we've made throughout our wedding planning process! My fiancé and I agree that the photography was the most important service we needed second to our venue. We both work in the creative industry, so we were very critical when looking through and meeting with photographers to capture our special day. We talked to several vendors, but Khoa stood out from the rest. He is absolutely unmatched in how personal he makes the experience for you. We felt like friends instead of clients. In fact, on our first meeting we had dinner together at his house! He focused on getting to know us before ever bringing up his services. He even started us with an activity where we wrote down and shared things about each other and how we imagine our wedding. Top that with the breath-taking quality of photos and the creativity of his layouts we saw after that - and you just can't find anything better in San Diego. Another bonus with Kho... Read morea is that he is willing to travel anywhere with you, for an extra charge he'll even travel out of state or cross-country! We took our engagement photos up in Joshua Tree and had a great time, he shot us in a bunch of locations and even found an awesome bonus spot outside of the park where we got some amazing photos in front of those massive wind turbines! When we've gotten couples photos taken in the past, we usually come out with about 10 or 15 favorite select photos. From our one engagement shoot with Khoa, we already have almost 80 favorites (out of over 300 shots) that we are just obsessed with! He makes your photos easy to see, organize and share after a session, and he makes his packages easy to add any special additions. He never nitpicks over contract details or technicalities (which I've heard that many photographers will do). He just wants for you to have the best photos and make memories in the process. The experience we've had so far has been well worth the price, I know that we will certainly be in contact with Khoa anytime we want to capture an important life event.

When looking for a photographer for our wedding, I was looking for a very specific kind of "look" for our photos. I wanted them to not only reflect us, in the most genuine way possible - but to also have an ethereal feel and honor the love we have for one another. I did a TON of research and only ended up interviewing 2 photographers based on their portfolios. The first I was pleased with, we had a nice phone conversation where she led me through her portfolio and answered all of my questions, and the price point was great. When I reached out to Khoa, he immediately wanted to meet us in person. He invited us to his lovely home, where he had prepared dinner (and somehow had my favorite wine) and over dinner and drinks, the three of us really got to know one another. Hardly anything business related was discussed at all. After dinner, he asked us simple, straightforward questions like "what are we looking for in a photographer", "what do we want our guests to feel when they walk into... Read more our wedding" "what kind of emotional response are we hoping for from our photos".... then things got deep. Khoa handed us a notepad and asked us to keep our responses to ourselves. He asked my husband and I to answer a few questions about one another.. not in a newlywed game sort of way.. but in an honest, emotionally charged way. This exercise was such an amazing experience and allowed Nick (husband) and I to see what was really important to us to feel and have our guests experience that day, and for us to feel and experience for the rest of our life as we look back on our photos of that day. I felt as if it were Nick and I being interviewed (in the absolute best kind of way), so that Khoa would be able to determine how best to truly capture us. When this exercise was over, Khoa showed us some more of his work and it was done. We were hiring him. Period. Regardless of the cost. It was not until we inquired about pricing did he even show us his packages/pricing options. Our package included an engagement shoot, something I didn't really anticipate wanting to do prior to meeting Khoa but I am SO glad we did. Khoa met us up in Sequoia and we had THE BEST DAY. It was so much fun taking photos among the giant trees, and Khoa was fun, professional and made us feel so comfortable throughout the entire experience. At the end of the day, we figured we would get MAYBE 25-50 good photos (we are not photogenic people).... Khoa delivered 300+ of the most incredible photos I've ever seen.. I cried when I saw them. And they do not even come close to how amazing our wedding photos turned out. Throughout our wedding day, Khoa made it a point to know every single family members name. He somehow managed to capture our relatively short ceremony from every angle, never missing a beat, and never being obtrusive. We didn't even know he was there. Someone had left a review a while ago on this page comparing Khoa to a ninja.. he truly is. I don't know how he was able to capture the photos he did. Khoa came to our venue for our rehearsal so that he could scope out the location for photo ops to ensure everything ran smoothly the next day; and it totally did. This is a very long review.. but I just cant say enough amazing things about Khoa. Our entire experience with him was perfect, from start to..now. I won't say finish because we plan on using Khoa again and again. He included so many special touches, and has truly become such a good friend.

I am SO glad we chose Khoa as our wedding photographer! Before we had even hired him he sat down with my husband and me and discussed our love-story and our vision for the wedding. It was so sweet and I could tell he was truly invested in tailoring his work to us as a couple. He did an amazing job at our wedding! We adore the photos; I can’t stop looking at them. He captured every moment beautifully. And what really sets him apart is that he brought a great vibe to the occasion. Everyone loved him. Out of all the vendors we had at the wedding he was the most personable and dedicated to ensuring we had a great experience. Your wedding photographer is a huge decision; you will appreciate the photos for years to come, and I highly recommend Khoa for the job 💕💕

1000 words cannot describe like 1 pic. Thats true when come to Khoa photography. I had a wedding photoshoot section with him like a month ago and his work was beautiful and naturual. He is passionate when he's doing photoshoot. In my section, He always made sure that me and my fiance had a good shot and natural looks. He showed us how to pose, he made us laugh with simple jokes so that he could capture a moment of us laughing. It was such a pleasure section doing photoshoot with him. We havent done any serious photoshoot before, but with him, he made it like really simple and easy to do. He complimented on our looks and pose, and gave us some advice how to pose with hands and legs. Also, before doing photoshoot he looked around the spot where we wanted to have a photoshoot, so that he could visualize how it looked in his settings. After done with photoshoot, it was really quick just about 2 -3 days, he sent us sample photos of our sections. It was just to make sure that we were sasti... Read morefied with the pics, colors and pics that he picked. Overall, we are completely pleased with his photoshoot. Our pics turned out perfecly beautiful. He also even gave us some discount as well as more time on photoshoot. I would recommend him to anyone and my friends who want to do photoshoot with once-in-a-lifetime photo, beautiful and natural looks.

Khao was an amazing photographer. He was incredibly personable and comfortable to be around. We had him take our engagement photos and since we love the outdoors he came up with the great idea to take them at Yosemite! He showed up the day before us to check out all the best spots so he knew exactly where it would be best to shoot us. His pictures turned out amazing. He has been super helpful in communicating with us after the shoot about how to acquire the photos and how we can get a photo book made. He truly is a wonderful photographer that I would definitely higher again!

I think it is paramount that you FEEL COMFORTABLE with your photographer and Khoa didn’t fail to make us feel that. From answering my plentiful emails and messages, assisted me when I had issues for the park permit, to being flexible on our day, he was very patient. He is very HELPFUL and MORE THAN READY TO DO BEYOND HIS JOB just to ease out all the stress andhassle that happens along the way.  Evidently, HIS WORKS ARE BEYOND GORGEOUS. He was able to capture the beauty of Yosemite and the sentimental moments we had on that day.  We can’t praise enough his works. His talent and works are great investment.  We feel more than lucky to have him for our special day. His works and service are BEYOND MY EXPECTATION.At the end of the day, he gave us 2 Polaroid photos of some of his shots and that was like a cherry on top! 10 out of 5 stars! Definitely looking forward to work with him again.

Me and my fiancé had the most amazing experience! It was both our first photo shoot and our photographer was amazing!! We won a free photoshoot with him and a week before he contacted us with a phone call and talked to me and my fiancé to get to know us a bit better and how we met and fell in love and about my family and our background. We talked for a while and got to know each other very well! The day of the potoshoot we met and he was very sweet, outgoing, funny, polite and patient! He made it feel like me and my Fiancé were in a room alone, with no one or nothing around but us during the photoshoot, it was very Romantic but he also made it feel like we were all friends just hanging out so it was fun at the same time! He told us how to pose and where to go, stand or sit and it was very helpful since me and my fiancé arnt models.. haha The photos came out amazing and I was so impressed. He captured some amazing shots and memories for us. He really does capture those beautiful mom... Read moreents of you and your loved ones! He also took our family photos the first part of the session with our 7 Month year old son and he did great with him! He is very adventurous and outgoing and would do anything to capture that perfect shot! I love that about him. He defiantly got us to let loose and be ourselves! After the shoot he printed some copies for us to take home and he would send me pictures through text message (Like for Mother's Day) and sent me a large family photo in the mail! Like wow!! I will be going to him in the future for any photos I need and no one else! He is amazing and I highly recommend him!

Khoa was everything I was looking for in a photographer! He was not only the things you'd expect to have when you entrust someone with an event like your wedding-- on time, communicative, professional etc. but went above and beyond to make you feel like he was a part of it. I was so shocked to have a few photos to share only hours after the wedding and it really shows how much he puts into his work. The rest of the photos were ready not too long after and they were absolute perfection. All the photos were so amazing that there are some that I still can't choose between! He has such a great eye for capturing the most candid moments, and the artistic talent to enhance them. What we love most about Khoa was his excitement about getting the shot he wanted-- his personality just shines through everything he does! I can't stress enough how natural he made the day feel and I would recommend him to all couples looking for someone who genuinely loves what they do.

We are blown away by the quality of Khoas work. He is an incredibly bright soul who is passionate about the art of photography. He takes a lot of pride in his work and it shows in the high quality of his photos. Anyone can take a photo, but not everyone has the skills to make you say "wow" and he also makes the process so much fun! We highly recommend working with him, for both engagement and wedding (and beyond)!

Wow! I am so happy we choose to use Khoa Photography for our engagement photos. He truly goes the extra mile with the photos and customer service! I highly recommend Khoa Photography, you will not be disappointed!
