I've seen Harvard photography at soo many bridal shows and loved their photography style. This company has sooo much experience doing weddings and it shows. the photographers were prompt and professional. I ended up with so much variety in pictures and could not be happier with them. It was a little strange to me that they picked a photographer for you and would reveal who your photographer is closer to the date(the company has several photographers.) However, i was told they all have similar styles. I had different photographers for my engagement session and wedding, but the pictures turned out fabulous. I did get a long canvas with my package that included 10 pictures. you pick the pictures but you can't pick the arrangment. Again, I didn't like that part at first...but the canvas with the pictures turned out beautiful and they would probably do a better arrangment than I. I couldn't be happier with the photos and would definitely recommend them to others.

I am very happy with the pictures that HArvard took for us. The only thing I could say that I should have paid more attention to is to have in mind who I want family pics with etc. This was NOT Harvards fault. They sent a list of pics to take etc but as a bride you might want to make a mental note or list of your own and hand it to your planner or relative of people to have around for the fam pics because I missed a few people that I really wanted. Anywho- HArvard was great, super responsive. We had to change our venue and date and they adapted and made it happen. They are super professional and I love all our pics. I have not gotten the book yet and I am working on getting them those pics ASAP so they can send it to me. The only thing that kinda sucks is that it doesn seem to take quite a while to get the albums back once you submit the pictures. I am going through the arduous process of sifting through thousands of great pics to pick for the book. I am a lil worried about the process of putting the book together, I hope they help with this part because once I choose the pictures I would like their artistic expertise to come into play to configure them as they see fit. I'll update when I get it but so far I LOVE HArvard :)

It was great working with harvard for our event. They did a great job on our engagement photos with Jose as our photographer. And we are sure our wedding photos will come out the same with Jason. We hand picked him because of his style and "urban outfitters" kind of feel. He gave just the right amount of instruction but also flexibility for us in guiding us during our photo sessions before, during and after the ceremony. We can't wait to see the photos!

Lawrance was awesome! We were concerned about getting a photographer just because we have been to other weddings where the photographers were creepy looking or just took horrible pictures but Lawrance was great. Our wedding party felt comfortable with him and he was on top of everything. Could not have asked for a better photographer. My only thing is if you do go to Harvard ask to speak to your photographer first before booking.

I was so happy with my photographer on the day of the wedding. Taiga wss the lead guy and was so amazing. Since I am not very comfortable in front of the camera, he did such a great job at putting me at ease and telling me exactly how to pose, smile, etc. He was EVERY where on the day of the wedding too. I know he did a phenomenal job at capturing every aspect of the big day. He got some beautiful shots of my husband and me after the ceremony as well. He is so easy going but was still able to get our crazy wedding party to listen and take fun shots. I can't wait to see our album when it comes in. I would recommend Harvard Photography to anyone!

Harvard Photography was professional, reliable, and accomodating. John was able to help us put together a customized package at a great price to cover all of our photography needs for a three-day/two weekend Indian wedding. All three photographers we used were attentive and professional--each let us know when they were leaving to make sure we had captured everything we wanted. We loved our engagement photos, canvas wrap, and sign-in book! Can't wait to receive the wedding photos and albums!

Harvard is as professional as they come. From the moment we walked in to their studio, to our engagement photo session, to our wedding day. My wife and I can't stop looking at our pictures because they are so awesome! Do yourself a favor and just book them, you wont be sorry. They are worth every penny.

Harvard is amazing. We had Jose as our photographer. He was very enthusiastic and had really good ideas. Our engagement pictures came out so amazing and I can't wait to see our wedding pictures. I know they will be great. I found the best way to communicate with Harvard is through email. I always got a prompt response. Harvard is well worth the money. The quality and style of their photography is so unique and timeless. We are very pleased!

We were very impressed with the level of quality of both our wedding and engagement pictures. The photographers were very professional, but very friendly. The photographer that we had for our engagement session was very funny and sweet and it helped us to relax while we were taking pictures and having people look at us funny (we went to downtown Pasadena)! We were very sad to hear that he had been booked for a different wedding the day of our wedding, but with as good as he was we were not surprised. All of the sadness went away when we met with the photographer who was doing our wedding. He was amazing and had so many ideas we couldn't wait! He was so nice and patient, he was an absolute pleasure to work with! I got compliments all night (and even still) about how nice the photographers were. They were everywhere we were that night and they got a lot of amazing shots! We are so happy that we went with Harvard and we wouldn't have changed a thing! They provided us with beautiful eternal memories and we are forever grateful!

I met Harvard Photography at the Bridal Show and booked an appointment with them one week later. They have their own studio for you to visit and also have different packages at reasonable price to fit your budget. After the meeting, we decided to book them for our wedding. Jose was our lead photographer. He was GREAT, high energetic, fun and very easy to work with. I just received the wedding pictures and Wowww…It's AMAZING. I could not believe how beautiful the picture turned out. It’s worth the money and I was very impressed with their quality and service.

Harvard Photography ROCKS!! I took my engagment pictures with them recently and had Jose as my photographer. Jose was amazing to work with. He was talented, friendly and has a great eye for capturing you and your mate having a special moment. The prices are VERY affordable for the services that they provide. My advice is to book early so you will have the time to carefully choose the photgrapher you would like to work with. Havard Photographer offers wonderful photo packages that will fit every bride and grooms budget. I am truly happy that we found a company that fits our budget and best of all provides BEAUTIFUL photos to be adored by all.

We were referred to Harvard from our reception site and we also saw them at the bridal shows. The girls at the bridal shows were very nice and helpful and set up a consultation for us at the studio. At first we were kind of hesitant because Harvard is basically a company that assigns photographers, but during our consultation we found out that we can look at photos from the photographers they had available and even meet with the photographer before we decide to book them. We chose Lawrence as our photographer for both the engagement session and the wedding. We haven’t seen the wedding photos yet because its still early (4-5 weeks), but we absolutely loved our engagement session photos. We posted all of them up on a mini slideshow next to our guest check-in at our reception site. Lawrence had really great ideas for the wedding photos and he was really good with the kids and the rest of the family, so we can’t wait to see them! =)

Our photographer, Jason, was absolutely amazing. My husband and I are not type of people who are used to taking pictures so having someone following us around is definitely different for us. As soon as we met Jason, he made us feel very comfortable. He has a great personality and is just so good at what he does. He even came to check in with us before he left to make sure he took all the photos we asked for. I can't express how lucky I feel to have booked him for our wedding day. Also, the staff at Harvard was very responsive and helpful. They answered all our questions in a timely manner. I totally fell in love with Harvard after seeing their sample photos. I just love creative and artsy photos.
