Adam is the best! He did engagement photos for us in May 2011 and then shot our wedding in November 2011. We are thrilled with the results of both, and constantly get compliments on our photos. He takes a variety of shots using different poses, equipment, backgrounds, etc. so there are lots of pictures to choose from at the end. He's really good at finding flattering and interesting poses no matter where you are and what you look like.The other great thing is that it was pouring rain on our wedding day, and you'd never know it from the pictures! Adam was able to find the right lighting and we ended up with great shots.He's also very good at navigating family dynamics and staging photos that make sense. Also does AMAZING detail shots of all the flowers, candles, food, etc. We spent so long picking out all those details, and I'm happy that I have fun photos to remember it all.Adam and Amber are completely professional and I would definitely recommend them to a friend.

Adam and Amber George at Embrace Life Photography are amazing. They send out questionaires to make sure they understand the feel of the wedding and the kind of photography that you want, and then work with you to create a photography schedule for the wedding day. They were great at picking out spots at the venue to take pictures, at setting up the pictures, and at having all of the equipment to get the lighting perfect. They were able to get me a sneak preview set of pictures within two weeks, which was perfect for showing my family at our second reception, and the pictures were amazing!!! I am beyond happy with the result. They are a little pricey, but the amount of time that they put in before, during, and after (amazing editing!) the event makes it totally worth it. They are also incredibly nice people, and made it a pleasure to work with them during the day. They weren't stressed at all, were making jokes and putting me at ease, and felt more like friends who I had invited to the wedding than someone I had hired. In all, they were amazing to work with, and I would highly recommend them.

As the "MOG", I had no input as to which photographer was to be used for my son's wedding. However, I could not have made a better choice than Adam at Embrace Life. He is extremely pleasant, unobtrusive, professional and talented. The photos are the memory of every aspect of that special day. I am delighted that Adam was the photographer. I have, and will continue to, pass his information to everyone who asks (and maybe some who don't).

Adam is the best! My wife and I had been considering three very talented photographers, but none of them understood what we were going for like Adam! He completely understood what we wanted, from the engagement photos to the wedding itself.He is also the consummate professional -- especially considering that we had multiple families to deal with and a ton of guests! His demeanor on the wedding day was perfect -- unobtrusive and invisible, but always there to get the best shot at the right moment. Scheduling the meetings, engagement photos and review sessions was as easy as could be with Amber helping out. Embrace Life is the perfect team for any wedding!We whole-heatedly recommend Embrace Life to anyone who wants top-notch photos, a professional company and an amazing person! Thanks, Adam for giving us all of the memories that flew by way too fast!

After meeting Adam and seeing his wedding photographs we didn't contact any other photographers. His work is beautiful and Adam was a pleasure from day one. We're very happy with the variety and quality of his photos. He captured every significant moment during the ceremony and reception and created wonderful couple portraits. He made us feel at ease with his professional, but easy going personality. Our photo album will tell the story of our wedding day that we can share for many years to come.

We were extremely pleased with the services rendered. Adam listened to our desires and incorporated his great ideas so that the pictures came out far better than we could have expected. The final album came out incredibly. It is truly the most amazing wedding album I have ever seen. We highly recommend the services of Embrace Life Photography.

My wife and I are the parents of the groom. Embrace Life Photography was a pleasure to work with. Adam was very professional. Even, after the wedding he was extremely helpful, keeping us informed and helping us make decisions for the final album. The final album was exceptional!

Adam does amazing work and is so great to work with! He is very professional and really cares about his clients and the end product! He did our engagement pictures and I knew the wedding ones would be fabulous! They were! I have had so many people say my wedding pictures are the best they have ever seen and that they want to use him! I would definitely use Embrace Life for any other professional pictures I may want to have done. I paid for an extra photographer to come with Adam, and he was just as great to work with! I ended up with amazing photos and I look at them everyday! Adam really helped in making it the best day ever! Well worth the money!

Adam was a complete pleasure to work with. We chose him as our photographer based on his portfolio of engagement photos. He has such an eye for capturing couples in an intimate and personal way, while making the photographs look so stylized and unique. While planning our wedding photography session, Amber took time to scout the location and we collaborated on some interesting sites near the venue to shoot at. Both Adam and Amber made the experience of choosing a wedding photographer so simple. They were both highly professional and helpful throughout the entire process, true experts! We enjoyed working with them and I would highly recommend them to other brides.

My husband and I got married in May and looked for a long time for a photographer that was in our price range and available. We finally came upon embrace life and were thrilled when we found out they were available and in our price range. We couldn't have asked for a better photographer to capture all the special moments on our big day! Adam and his team were so easy going, professional and truly cared about what we wanted. From the engagement shoot to our wedding say they were very organized and always stayed in contact. Amber was especially helpful when it came to keeping us in the loop of what was going on and confirming all details. When it came to viewing our actual pictures we couldn't have been more satisfied. We loved every image from our engagement shoot and wedding day. We are so thankful for the whole embrace life team and the quality products they produce. Our wedding album far exceeded our expectations and we are so pleased we have something to keep forever that captures every special moment that occurred on our wedding day! Thank you, embrace life photography for everything you do!

Adam was absolutely amazing in every regard! My husband, Chris, and I had kind of an untraditional ceremony and Adam made our entire experience seamless. We're from the east coast and chose to elope in Malibu before continuing on to our honeymoon destination. We contacted Adam via email and he was super responsive. We explained what we were planning on doing and what we were looking for and not only was he game, he was accommodating to all our needs. He advised us on our location and timing which was extra helpful and his pricing was more than reasonable. While we were with him, Adam made us feel totally comfortable even having just met him. We felt like he really got the look/feel that we were going for and 100% nailed it. And the countless feedback we received from all of our friends, family and even strangers proved it! The amount of compliments we received on Adams photos was amazing and we have absolutely no regrets - he was amazing and I would recommend him to any couple with 100% confidence!

Finding the right photographer is one of the most important things when planning your wedding. These are once in a lifetime memories! Adam has the talent to capture just the right moments and emotions. His composition is amazing! He is always thinking of creative places and ways to take the photographs. Some of the photographs just make you say, "wow!" Amber, his wife, helped me with the wedding photography timeline. I explained what our "wants" were, and she made it happen. We communicated many times to get it just right, and she responded to every question and concern very promptly! In addition, Adam and Amber are down to earth and genuinely nice people. We immediately felt extremely comfortable with them. My now-husband and I highly recommend embrace life photography. We have shared our photographs with our family and friends, and they are raving about how gorgeous the photographs came out. The photos look like they could be in a wedding magazine! It was a pleasure working with Adam and Amber, and we would use them again in a heartbeat!

Absolutely without a doubt, our favorite vendor from the whole wedding!!Since I first saw some of his work online, I wanted him as our photographer, and I couldn't have been happier with our choice. We live in Arizona, and the wedding was in California, so he worked with us in knowing that when we were visiting CA during the planning, it was only for limited times, so he definitely worked with our schedules.We did the engagement shoot in Venice Beach when we were home for Easter - I highly recommend this! It gave us a great way to get to know Adam and get comfortable with him. I can't imagine how I would feel if I was meeting him for the first time at the wedding. He made us feel completely at ease, and helped direct us - but it felt natural and not posed. When we reviewed the photos, we couldn't choose, we were amazed at what a great job he did. Perfect mix of artsy and classic shots. The wedding was the same, completely made us feel comfortable, got to do some really fun shots. The other photographer he brought with him was great too. Now just waiting to see the photos, we're so anxious!Would HIGHLY recommend to anyone looking for a photographer. Adam is personable, professional, and extremely talented.

We have been getting non-stop complements from the pictures Adam at Embrace Life Photography took for us at our wedding. We kept having to respond that Adam deserved all the credit.Sure you can go with other photographers, but Adam's price is worth it for his photo-finishing services that made our wedding photos look magazine-ready.You can tell how passionate he is about photography when he was worried he wouldn't have enough time to take all the photos he wanted!! Thanks Adam. Anyone in Southern Calfornia need a photographer, You have to go with Adam at Embrace Life!

Thanks to Adam and his team, we now have the most amazing wedding album I have ever seen!! We were speechless when we opened the box and saw the album. Every page is perfect and it captured every important moment at our wedding. The albums Adam creates are so different from any other album I have seen and we couldn't be happier! Thank you so much for everything!! Kelsey and Corey

Adam and his team were awesome. We have only seen a few of our pictures, but it's only been 2 weeks and he has said we'd be getting the rest soon. The pics we have seen are awesome and we love the style of the photos. I looked at so many photographers before we picked him and could not find anyone with this quality of work who charged reasonable fees. Most people with the caliber of talent Adam has were completely unaffordable for us. Adam and Amber have been responsive, professional, and are truly great people. Some of our engaged friends are actually thinking of hiring him after seeing our photos. I would highly recommend Adam and Embrace Life Photography.

After Adam took our wedding pictures, my husband and I compared them to our friends' wedding pictures. It's not even comparable. We actually felt sorry for people who didn't hire a photographer as good as Adam. We were so grateful that we hired Adam. His work was just beyond my expectation. All my friends asked me how I found him. I love looking at my pictures. He is warm and polite in person. And while he was taking pictures of me, he made me feel comfortable and beautiful. My bridesmaid saw the pics and she said "Don't you feel you are the most beautiful girl in the world?" Yes, I do. Adam's photos make me feel that way.Considering how good he is, and how much he charges, my friend told me "he is too good to be true." and I agree.

Adam, I cannot put into words how much both groups of photos have meant to me, from your work for our daughter, Morgan, and Brett's engagement pictures, to the tour de force at the wedding. I had complete confidence in you from the moment I saw your approach and style during the engagement shoot. You have a real gift for finding precise moments that speak visual volumes. I will always treasure these photos for the repeated pleasure they bring of a journey through that magical day.

Adam at Embrace Life was truly incredible! My husband and I could not have been more happy with the service provided. From the very beginning, Adam was professional, courteous, and truly listened to what we were looking for in our wedding photos. He took the time to truly find out what our hopes and desires were for our wedding day. He spent extra time on the day of the wedding at the site to find the best angles and shots possible. I honestly do not like having my picture taken but I felt so comfortable with Adam on our wedding day that it was so much easier to relax and just enjoy the moment. I had several people come up to me after the wedding and explain how professional and courteous Adam was throughout the entire event. Also, several people mentioned how at other weddings the photographer often gets in the way but that Adam never took away from the day, or was in the way at all! When we received his photos we heard from many of our friends and guests what amazing photos we had. We could not ask for more. If I had to chose my photographer again I would use Embrace Life Photography without a doubt! Adam is the very best.

Adam is AWESOME and definitely one of my favorite vendors! I wish he had more reviews. His photographs are beautiful and modern, and his prices are very reasonable. I have nothing but great things to say about him! Easy to work with and got our photos and album in no time... HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
