Dave Miyamoto & Company

t used to getting our photos taken and were sort of nervous about looking too “staged” or unnatural in our formal wedding photos. Dave did an amazing job directing us without being too overbearing. We appreciated the guidance he provided and that he also let us do our own thing, and in the end we had a total blast taking our “formal” photos. Dave also was incredibly hardworking during our wedding ceremony and reception, running around to take photos from every angle without being obtrusive at all. Looking back at the photos, one would think we had hired two or three photographers, when really it was just Dave all on his own! We also really appreciated how quickly Dave got our photos back to us – a mere four days after the wedding! Finally, we can’t say enough good things about the “trash the dress” underwater photo shoot we did with Dave. My husband and I had so much fun playing around in the ocean, and the photos were magical and romantic. I would (and have) recommended Dave to any couple that is looking for a photographer who makes you feel completely relaxed while shooting and incredibly beautiful in photos.

him to anyone.

k with but has also been doing this long enough that you can tell he knows exactly how to handle any type of situation. We had some hectic weather during our wedding, not to mention the general feeling of going crazy during your big day and it was nice having Dave there because we knew 100% we could depend on him to tell us what we should be doing and to help direct things along. He even went out of his way to offer a follow up session a couple weeks later after the rain had cleared! As if that wasn't enough of a reason to work with him, his photos are all incredible. He has a great style that isn't over processed and has a beautiful natural look to them. We got all of our shots back extremely fast from our event and couldn't be happier. Thanks so much Dave! Can't wait to work with you again some time!!

ad amazing engagement photos taken in the Bay Area and people were mortified to find out I was having someone else photograph the wedding. Dave's photos instantly caught my attention, I loved his combination of traditional, creative, and candid shots. My first call with Michelle I knew they were going to be a good match to my style. I was overjoyed with our wedding pictures and love that they have a different feel than our engagement session. Dave worked with me to set up a timeline that captured getting ready photos thru all the main events. The day of, he just did his thing. He captured so many moments that I had no idea he was observing. He captured every moment, I feel like nothing was missed. The best part was he was able to capture the emotion of the day without being in your face at all. Everything was beautiful and I had the proofs and video before I was back in California!
