Harrison Boyd Photography 

5.0

San Rafael, CA
  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,500

I have been professionally capturing images for over 10 years. During that time, I built a successful promotional marketing company in Canada, received my MBA in Ireland, and moved to the San Francisco Bay Area with my wife. My favorite part about photography are the stories that are captured, the frozen moments in time that each picture highlights. Over the course of my career, I have been asked to tell thousands of stories. With the ability to operate in the United States, Canada, and Europe, I’m no stranger to traveling for a good story.

Working with Harrison was probably the easiest part of our entire wedding. He built us a custom package for our less than normal wedding, and was super thorough in documenting our details. When we got the photos we loved how he and his second shooter were able to get lots of pictures of our family and friends, while taking some beautiful couple shots of the two of us as fresh newlyweds. You won't regret having him along for your special day!

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 :)

Welcome. I’ve been a make-up artist, chocolatier, a barista, a pet-sitter, a bartender but I’ve always been “that girl with the camera.” (I’ve also been, “that girl who sleeps on our couch” or “that girl who’s booty I saw in the newspaper” but I digress…). Currently, I base my photography business in Petaluma, CA. I grew up in Sonoma County but in my early 20’s I picked up and moved to Manitoba and that’s where I stayed for many years. Upon my return to CA in 2013 I turned my passion for photography into a career. It’s been a journey to call photography my profession, but I’ve always been a photographer and I’ve always been an artist.

Laurie Ann Martin and her team are a fun and professional group to work with. She is detailed oriented and cares not only how the pictures turn out but also your experience. My eyelash came off and I wanted to cry at city hall but she not only made me happy but went to Walgreens to get eye glue lash! That is the type of all hats on board she and her team are. When they had down time before the reception, they even offered to help out non-picture wise wherever they could! She also sends little gifts and surprises but I won’t spoil it. There is one BIG surprise she does at the end but I won’t spoil that either lol. She is fortunately not shy about whether she understands whether things are communicated correctly to her, especially when it comes to the albums - I was quite detailed oriented in what I wanted in my albums and how they were designed _. Her and her teams services are of an immense value and my husband and I had ALOT of fun shooting and videoing with them. Also, the video was really great, really a must. Thank you Laurie and your team!

From the very first conversation, their communication style was transparent and kind, putting me at ease throughout the entire process. The quality of their work was truly above and beyond - they made me feel beautiful without the makeup feeling "caked on." The look was very natural but still noticeable, which was exactly what I was going for. Masara is phenomenal at what she does and is perfect for brides who don't wear a lot of makeup day-to-day.

I’m a wine country native and learned the photographic arts from my family. My early travels and studies in the art & humanities opened my horizons to culture and diversity, plus I'm of mixed ethnicity. I really enjoy photographing weddings, because it has influenced me in a variety of unexpected and good ways. Each wedding has their own uniqueness, personality, and beauty. My life experience in wedding, portrait, & event photography has been a very gratifying and fulfilling journey. I’ve been pro wedding photographer for over 15yrs, and I’m insured.

I couldn’t be happier choosing Marc to photograph our wedding! From the very beginning, he was incredibly professional and attentive, making sure he understood exactly what we wanted. He photographed our engagement photos too and even rescheduled at no extra cost when the weather was too foggy for the scenery we wanted. On the big day, Marc blended seamlessly into the background while capturing every precious moment beautifully. The photos are nothing short of spectacular—each one highlights the love and magic of the day and perfectly captures the emotion and joy we felt. We’ve received countless compliments on the quality of the images and how they captured each moment of our wedding.

Russ is an absolute dream to work with! We discovered Russ by sheer luck and we were immediately blown away by his artistic talent as evidenced by his stunning photos! We as a couple aren't regulars in front of the camera, yet Russ made us feel so relaxed and comfortable throughout our entire engagement shoot. We're pretty silly by nature, and Russ capitalized on our playful personalities which completely shine through in our photos. Russ' ability to set up a shot and provide clear direction made the shoot easy, effortless, and most importantly fun! We still can't thank Russ enough for his flexibility and professionalism in scheduling our shoot. Our initial session was booked during a bout of unhealthy air quality in the Bay Area and Russ granted us the opportunity to make a judgment call on the day of the shoot to determine if we should move forward or postpone. We ultimately postponed and rescheduled for two weeks later, but on a whim we asked Russ if he could accommodate us a week earlier, and he cheerfully squeezed us in! Russ connected with us by phone on a few occasions leading up to our shoot, and he was always very accommodating to adhere to our overall vision. We had two locations that are close in proximity to one another in mind for our shoot, and we're so impressed that Russ managed to capture what appear to be five separate locations that offer such a well-rounded framework. We know we'll cherish these special photographs for a lifetime, and we highly recommend Russ for any and all photography needs!

Working with her was wonderful, from the ease of communication to her professionalism and flexibility. We currently have several of her photos on our wall at home and they make me smile every time I see them. She managed to find the right backdrops to create pictures that aren't just lovely mementos, they are works of art. To our surprise, she sent us first peek images in less than 24 hours, which was amazing and so fun to look at on our honeymoon! Beyond her talent as a photographer, Lisa is also such a kind person that she makes everyone feel comfortable and she is always open to questions, comments, or suggestions. I can't imagine a better wedding photographer. And I should say that we loved Lisa's work so much that we've now had her take family pictures for us four years in a row.

They were quick to respond to our initial inquiry and set up a call to understand our wedding photography needs. During our consultation, it was clear that they were passionate about their craft and genuinely cared about capturing the unique story of our special day. On the wedding day, the Nixie team was a joy to work with - they seamlessly blended into the background to capture all the important moments, while also providing helpful guidance to ensure we felt comfortable and natural in front of the camera. The final photos exceeded our expectations and perfectly reflected the joy and love of our wedding celebration. We are thrilled with the beautiful memories Nixie Design Studios was able to preserve for us, and would highly recommend them to any couple looking for an exceptional photography experience.

I am a Mother, Poet and never-ending dog trainer of my 3 spoiled fur babies. I grew up around photography, my grandfather was a photographer and this has always been something I loved to do. I love people and I have a ton of fun working at events. I am always excited to capture these moments for people and proud to share my results afterward. Photographing people and moments over the years is my true calling in life. Gives me great purpose and I really do enjoy it.

Opal was beyond amazing, she did our engagement photos and our wedding photos. She is such an amazing photographer. Super professional and knowledgeable. Also very down to earth so you connect easily. Cannot wait to see our wedding photos!!️
