I went to a family friends' wedding when i was 18 years old. Peter and his team did a same day edit video at the reception, after seeing that video - I knew that this team needed t...
o be apart of my wedding one day. Flash forward to 9 years later, I have no regrets in hiring Peter and his team. I had Peter and his team make a same day edit for my own reception, and it was more perfect than I had hoped for. Peter is beyond professional and adds so many little touches to his work that makes the entirety of it unique and captures all the heartfelt moments that couples would want to remember. I would recommend Peter for anyones wedding, he is amazing.
Peter and his wife are AMAZING!! Would 10/10 recommend to anyone looking for a photographer for their big day. Peter and his wife and so sweet and make you feel so special on your ...
big day. They have an eye for capturing beautiful shots and guide you through the whole process. Loved working with them!
Peter Nguyen (and co) are incredible! We chose him as the photographer and videographer for our Indian wedding, and we couldn’t have been more thrilled with his work. From the very...
beginning, Peter impressed us with his professionalism, creativity, and genuine passion for capturing beautiful moments.
Peter’s attention to detail is unmatched. He perfectly understood the cultural significance of our wedding rituals and made sure to capture every important moment with precision and artistry. His ability to blend into the background (not obstructing anyone’s view) while still getting the best shots made everyone feel comfortable and natural.
One of the highlights of his work was the stunning drone footage that beautifully showcased our venue and the scale of our celebrations. The aerial views added a breathtaking dimension to our wedding video, making it truly cinematic.
The quality of the photos and videos exceeded our expectations. Peter has a unique talent for capturing emotions and telling a story through his lens. The music selection for the video was perfect and complemented the visuals wonderfully, enhancing the overall emotional impact. Every time we look at our wedding album and video, we are transported back to that magical day, thanks to his exceptional work.
Moreover, Peter was incredibly easy to work with. He was punctual, responsive, and open to our ideas and suggestions. His friendly and approachable demeanor made the entire experience enjoyable for us and our guests.
If you are looking for a photographer and videographer who can beautifully capture the essence of your special day, look no further than Peter. His talent, dedication, and professionalism make him the best choice for any event. We highly recommend Peter and are so grateful for the priceless memories he created for us!
Thank you, Peter, for making our wedding unforgettable!
If you want the best wedding and photos you’ve ever seen as well as kindness and professionalism on your wedding weekend use Peter and his team. We are so grateful we chose them fo...
r our wedding because they made everything seamless and comfortable. Our final product came quickly, and we couldn’t be happier. So many of our friends and family tell us they’re the best photos and videos they’ve seen. We couldn’t be happier.
Peter and his team created a beautiful engagement trailer and photo shoot for me and my fiancé. The locations that he recommended were beautiful, and he and his team were highly ta...

Peter Nguyen Studio and his team were absolutely ahhhhmazing! Booking Peter was such a great decision that we made early on in our wedding planning journey! We are so lucky to ha...
ve been able to have booked them!! Peter did our engagement photoshoot in LA and our wedding photography in Dallas – he pays particular attention to details of the person being photographed, of the items (clothing, jewelry etc) he is photographing, and gives great direction on poses making sure we feel comfortable during the photoshoot! He likes to try new things regarding backgrounds and ideas which is awesome. Peter also works very well with our other vendors and our event planner which made everything so seamless. He is always one step ahead and very engaged in his work – to him it is truly a passion which shows. An example of being one step ahead and very timely is when we needed frames portraits made of us and delivered less than 10 days before the wedding - Peter immediately got the order in, made, and delivered, it was fabulous how prompt he was with our needs. Peter also had a good time with us on our engagement and wedding photoshoots – he is easy going, but determined to get the shot! If you want a photographer that will deliver on angles, lighting, a variety of photography shots, and still have a good time with you then Peter is your guy! He is just such a good guy and we loved working with him!!
Peter and his team are by far the most incredible team you can have leading up to your wedding, during every event, and of course for capturing every single memory for the most imp...
ortant event of your life. My family and I are quite simply speechless. We told Peter how much it would mean to us to get full coverage of us, our families, our guests and he and his team made sure to start early and stay late during each of the five days. not only that, they are incredibly professional, so kind and just absolutely a dream team. His videos were flawless, he gave us an incredible same day edit and a full length trailer that was completely different. Our event videos are documentary style and help me remember each and every minute. And our photos are so wonderful. I love this team beyond words!

tient. Words fall short for how grateful we are for Peter's patience and dedication as our plans kept changing due to Covid 19. Most importantly, the photos are breathtaking!! I was blown away when I saw them. The photos are bright, warm, true to color, and so beautiful! He captured every memory and every family member having fun :) Thank you!!

or to my wedding, he worked with me to develop a timeline for the wedding photo shoot to ensure that pictures/video remained on time and everything ran smoothly (and it really did). On our wedding day, Peter and his team arrived early to start prepping and scoping out great photo spots within our venue, which I really appreciated because it allowed everything to remain on time. Peter made my husband and I feel so comfortable as he guided us through specific poses that fit our personalities and our styles. His candid photos were also so amazing. He captured all the various ceremonies and rituals of my indian wedding so beautifully. My guests and family all have told me that they love our wedding pictures, and that’s all because of Peter and his team.
Peter and his team did the videography/photography for our wedding weekend and I can't express enough how amazing they were. Peter and his team are always smiley and cheerful and m...
ake you feel so comfortable during photo shoots. I told them they were like ninjas because they somehow never got in my way but captured every moment and detail from our big day. Peter and his team are so passionate about what they do that you can tell they love their jobs and love capturing these moments. They were so creative and artistic with the shots they wanted to take and made it so easy for us.
Also for anyone who has the blues after their big day because it went by so quick - Peter and his team have one of the fastest turnaround times for edited pictures that I've ever seen! They worked double time on getting our pictures to us quickly and they were all so perfect. I truly enjoyed my experience with Peter and his team and would recommend them to anyone. Thank you for capturing our big day and making it so memorable for everyone!
Peter and his team are amazing! They are the most patient, nicest people I've every worked with. They shot our wedding in the beginning of this year and I have to say that I can't ...
be more thankful for him. We LOVED how the photos and our highlight video turned out and we just ordered an album for the photos. We had a fairly big wedding and it was 3 days straight,; but Peter and his team were very professional and detail oriented from the very beginning till the end. I would truly recommend using Peter and his team as your special day photographer.
My daughters wedding was July of 2016, Peter was chosen by referrals from sites like this one. The photos were such a disappointment! No photos of bridesmaids together, no pictures...
of grooms parents together, no family pictures at the church or reception. We had a lot of family come from out of town and no pictures were taken with them. Also, all the pictures seemed to have been taken from the bottom shooting up, which is not flattering to ANYONE. This is a very sloppy and disappointing photographer to use for that special day of your daughters life. I would NOT recommend this photographer for any event.
I was deeply disappointed with the wedding photography of Peter Nguyen. Of the 400 photos that he took at my son’s and daughter-in-law’s wedding, there are over 130 photos that ar...
e out of focus, grainy because of shooting at a high of ISO and an overall unprofessional result of photos. Some of the photos even have the photographer in the photo (reflections in mirrors or windows) or people that should not be in the photographs. When my daughter-in-law questioned him about the photos he simply stated, “You got what you paid for”. What she paid was $3700.00 for the JPEGS on a thumb drive and the copyright release. This was stunning to me because I myself have photographed weddings for many years. We thought we were getting a true professional, turns out; we got at best, an amateur that doesn’t know his equipment, frame of reference or lighting. I would truly urge anyone not to use this person for such an important event.
Let me start by saying Peter did a great job on my engagement pictures, which is why we chose him for our wedding. When I received my wedding pictures I just sat and cried looking ...
at them. Not tears of joy though. There were no detail pics (my shoes, garter, veil, bridesmaids boquets, boutineers, food, decor...NOTHING!) with the exception of one picture of one centerpiece. Also, there were no pictures of me making my entrance ( we had an arbor built with curtains for me to walk thru) but you would never know that looking at my pictures, none of my husband as I'm walking down the aisle, none of my mom lighting the unity candle, us leaving in the limo. That's just to name off a few basic pictures. So, I called Peter and told him I was disappointed in what I recieved and that I felt like I didn't recieve the quality nor quaintly for the amount I paid him ( I got back less than 500 pictures for almost $4000) and that there was no noticeable editing (cropping, black and white..again, basic things). He said he would go back and look at my file and send me a new set via Dropbox. A few weeks went by, nothing. So, I sent him a text and he assured me he would get them to me. Well, he sent me 22 additional pics, most of which were ones he had already sent me but just turned them black and white. I then emailed him that I was still very displeased. That was almost 4 months ago and he has not offered any way to make it right or an explanation for what happened to my pictures. Out of the pictures I received, 50 would be a high number for what I would want to print.
Peter is a talented photographer. He came an hour early to be familiar with the place. My make up artist came an hour late and Peter told me not to panic. He was calm and patient w...
ith all my guests. I wish we could have taken pictures I had in mind but because of timing and stress I forgot to mention it to him. Overall, the pictures are beautiful. He is professional and I will recommend him to my family and friends.
Peter and his staff were FANTASTIC. They were on time and ready to go for all the events. We had a very large wedding (600 guests) and a multi-day wedding weekend with part of the ...
festivities in Birmingham and part in Atlanta. Peter handled this well and caught all the most important shots in a Hindu ceremony. He was patient and made us feel very comfortable (I was so worried initially that all the photo shoots would be extra awkward). Most importantly, he had unlimited patience with our four-legged kids at our engagement shoot. He took the time to get individual shots of them, because he knew how important they were to us. He was always willing to meet up prior to the big day to go over details and was very flexible with time when I needed all my vendors to gather together to make sure everyone was on the same page for the wedding in the weeks and months leading up to it. He has a great sense of humor and above all makes you feel comfortable. He took the time out to ask me what I wanted in each of the photo shoots and had me share a Pinterest board with him so he could plan accordingly. He is humble, easy to work with, and truly a very talented artist. He does NOT photoshop pictures until you can barely recognize yourself. He fantastic about catching the in the moment shots which are my favorite. I couldn't rave enough about Peter and his staff. They were honestly the least stressful part of the entire process, because I just KNEW that Peter had it covered, and I didn't need to worry. For Peter, its all about the bride and groom, capturing their true personalities and emotions, and making the whole experience FUN.
I am so unbelievably happy that we had Peter take our wedding photos. From the first moment we met him he was kind, caring and professional. I tend to get overwhelmed and stressed ...
and Peter absolutely put me at ease. The photos came out all that I could have ever dreamed and there was a not a single picture that I didn't love. if you are like me and want a photographer you can trust is going to be dependable and take pictures that you can be proud of. Please call Peter! Love him!!!!!!!
My wedding was this past May and as I was doing research online to find a photographer, I found it difficult as there were thousands of photographers in Atlanta and I really didn't...
know which one to choose. It came down to two photographers -their photos were so amazing but I decided on Peter because he was so much more flexible and friendlier than the other photographer. Plus, his photos were better overall.
He worked longer than he was supposed to do for our engagement shoot and was literally all there all day on our wedding day shooting, all with a smile. If you go with Peter, you will not be disappointed- I can guarantee it.
-Mary Mai
Peter was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. I would recommend Peter to anyone that needs a photographer that has a high level of skill paired with awesome personality. ...
Peter met with us a few times before our wedding to ensure that he understood our vision. He showed up early on our big day. Peter took way more shots than we could ever imagine. He was more than accommodating to my family and all their photo-op requests.
Peter worked so hard on our wedding day that we thought he had a twin. he returned our pictures back to us in timely fashion. Peter captured so many of the precious moments of our wedding day it's was like a beautiful timeline in pictures.
To sum up, Peter Nguyen is a phenomenal photographer, you will be blessed to have him capture your wedding day.
I had a big fat indian wedding with 6 events over 3 days and throughout all of the chaos Peter remained extremely calm, patient, and professional. I am so happy that we went with P...
eter and his team. Not only were our pictures priceless and exquisite, but they captured the happiness and joy of our wedding weekend. We could not have asked for a better wedding photographer.
If there was a way to give Peter a higher rating than 5 out of 5 I would. Peter photographed our Engagement Shoot and our Wedding. We just received the Wedding photos today and the...
y were amazing. Peter was so good to us that he MADE ME want to review him, by his service alone. I usually don't review people and although I should more often, I wanted to review Peter since the Engagement shoot because the experience and professionalism he offered was above and beyond what anyone could ever expect. To begin, he is an extremely nice person with a great personality. My Wife and I met him in a Starbucks in Atlanta and we didn't feel pressured at ALL by him to use him as a photographer, but after the meeting knew we should go with him and he was our first choice!! Due to a last minute issue with where my Wife and I decided to do our engagement shoot, Peter suggested as an alternative that we can shoot in Callaway Gardens in Pine Mountain, GA which was an hour and a half away, but my Wife is from that area. She originally wanted to shoot there, but we found out it was too far and might not work. Peter drove to Callaway Gardens from Atlanta and we were supposed to be there at 4 and didn't show up until 6:30pm (My wife was doing make-up..), and he never said anything at all, was never angry, and shot a great engagement shoot even though we inconvenienced him! For our wedding he shot the girls and his assistant Warren, who was also great, shot the guys when we took pictures before! He gets the photos to you quickly and I would HIGHLY recommend Peter Nguyen to anyone looking for a Photographer.
I came across Peter Nguyen while researching photographers to shoot my engagement and wedding. I looked into many photographers and ended up choosing Peter because of his astonishi...
ng portfolio, calm nature, and revered professionalism. My fiance and I met him over coffee and fell in love with his work and knew immediately Peter needed to be the one to photograph our special days. And, we were right.
We recently had our engagement photos taken in November and Peter listened to my ideas and my vision of how I wanted the photos to look and recommended the perfect location for the photo shoot. That is one thing that I loved about Peter- he listens to what you want and you can see his creative visions working to realize yours, whether it is a classic look you are going for or vintage, urban, etc. He spent hours working with us and, yes, just as his website states, he will get on the ground, behind the bushes, across the bridge and over the hill to get the perfect shot. The end result? AMAZING. The photos were breathtakingly beautiful with every moment captured better than even I could remember when actually living the moment that day. My fiance and I were in love with the photos and were so proud to show them off to friends and family. We feel so lucky to have stumbles across Peter and cannot wait to see the magic he conjurs up on our wedding day. If you are looking for a top rated photographer, look no further.
Peter did an amazing job on my engagement pictures! My fiance and I had never had professional photos taken so needless to say we were a little nervous to get in front of the lense...
s, but Peter went above and beyond to make us comfortable and made the whole experience fun! We had pictures taken on a Sunday and by Monday Peter was sending me a "sneak peek"!The pictures turned out so beautiful, I can't stop showing them off!Can't wait to work with Peter again in August for our wedding.
Peter was AMAZING! He and his team were considerate, creative, attentive, and a lot of fun to work with! He was very polite and took the time to talk and email a lot ahead of time...
so he could deliver exactly what we wanted. Not only that, he processed the photos very quickly after the wedding. Peter's images of our wedding have brought tears to the eyes of nearly everyone we have shared them with! My husband and I feel honored to have worked with such a talented photographer!
Peter was amazing at our Wedding! He was so very patient with all of us the entire day and had fun capturing our special day. He truly has the "eye" for capturing special moments a...
nd really knows what he is doing. I am so grateful for all that he has done for us and so very glad we chose him to be our photographer on the most important day of our life!

ith a professional demeanor to match. When I got the images from him, I was stunned -- outstanding shots that captured each moment creatively, and without being gimmicky. I could not have left the photography for my wedding in better hands, and I would give him my unqualified and highest recommendation.
I have used Peter as a photographer at many of my events & referred him to countless friends for their weddings & special occasions. He has also done head shots for my website, whi...

Peter immerses himself with the subject and is a perfectionist when it comes to photography. He will not only make you look really good, but think outside the box to create fun environments that make your photos stand out from everyone else's.

sharing it with us. Peter has such a great eye for capturing the "right" moment. I look at the photographs daily and I am so thankful that he was recommended to our family. Peter was so easy to work and he has such a beautiful heart. Thanks Peter for the incredible photographs and for capturing our special family moments!
Thank you very much.
Peter did an amazing job for our engagement shoot! He took the time to meet with us both prior to the shoot and gather and provide thoughts about the shoot. He drove over an hour e...
ach way to get to the beautiful location. He spent many hours with us at the location and got there prior to the shoot to determine where the best locations were to maximize our shoot. He was very creative with suggestions for our poses and had an extra camera person to assist. Our photos turned out exquisitely. His turnaround time for our pictures was exceptionally fast and he made some adjustments to some photos per my request. The photos overall did not need much adjustment due to his incredible skills with the camera. He used multiple lenses and had perfect equipment. He has also been flexible with scheduling and is incredibly fast to respond to any questions. We are also having Peter do our wedding in April 2015 and are so excited and lucky to have him on board!! I would give him my highest recommendation!!
We loved Peter and Warren!!
