Simon Yao Studio

Simon has been photographing my family for over a decade. I love that his photographs are timeless and elegant. He doesn't rely on trendy filters or angles, therefore our older family portraits have aged remarkably well. I also keep going to him because the photographs are exactly what I want them to be, flattering depictions of the people who I love most in the world. As a person, Simon strikes the perfect balance of being friendly and comfortable while being completely professional. He's great.

Simon has been my family's photographer for 20+ years. He has taken our family portraits, my graduation, engagement, and wedding photos. He has a unique talent of capturing the perfect moment and memory. Simon is very professional and directs everyone in a very friendly manner. He will be the one photographer that will make sure you are positioned correctly (small things like: hands in pockets, having your chin pointed downwards, etc) which are the details that really make his work stand-out from others. Through all the direction, it still feel very casual, natural, and enjoy the experience. He also provides custom frames, mounts, and storybooks that memorialize those special moments. Whether its a portrait session or wedding, you will be guided throughout the entire process. He is also very responsive whether it be an email or call. If you want the best experience, Simon Yao Studio is where you want to go. (My profile picture was captured by him)

Working with Simon was nothing short of delightful. He is very professional and made us feel so comfortable for the entire shoot. He takes pride in his work and it shows through his beautiful studio space to the finished product. We had fun during our shoot and he captured moments as they truly were. I can look back on these photos and remember how I felt for each one. You will not leave disappointed, in fact you will want to book him for all your future photos.
