Services
At Blue Soul Photo, we understand that weddings are expensive. Little things here and there for the wedding start adding up quick, so before all of that happens, it's important to prioritize the most important expenses.
After the big wedding celebration is all said and done, the three things that last is the love that's shared between the newlyweds, their wedding rings, and they're wedding photos, which is why finding the right wedding photographer is so important.
After the big wedding celebration is all said and done, the three things that last is the love that's shared between the newlyweds, their wedding rings, and they're wedding photos, which is why finding the right wedding photographer is so important.
Wedding photography has evolved quite a bit over the years. With all the advancements of technology in digital SLR cameras, it has paved the way for new styles of wedding photos that are more edgy and artistic than the styles of yesteryear. Traditional wedding photography, high-fashion wedding photography, wedding photojournalism, and artistic wedding photography are four of the most common wedding styles in the industry today.
Start a wedding binding/folder. You'll want to start creating a collection of ideas that you find captivating that you may want at your wedding. From wedding magazines, wedding conventions, Pinterest, Etsy, to friends who were recently married. Plan your wedding budget. No one wants to start a life together in debt from an expensive wedding, so make a budget that won't break the bank and work with it.
Weddings can be very expensive with costs adding up here and there, so many couples often have to do what they can to stay within their wedding budget. Couples ask themselves where they can cut corners to save money and still have an enjoyable and memorable wedding, and more often than not, wedding photography is usually one of the expenses that goes on the chopping block.
We have photographed many modern Chinese and Vietnamese weddings that have incorporated traditional tea ceremonies and love them. Experiencing tea ceremonies allows us to help couples who are a little lost regarding the details of this tradition. We decided to do a little write-up to help couples who need a crash course in customs, rituals, and the meaning behind tea ceremonies.

Danny and Geoff are a great duo to work with. I used Blue Soul for my engagement and wedding photos, and they went above and beyond to help capture these special moments for my wife and I perfectly.
Danny will meet with you to go over any specific details long before the big day and will offer up suggestions for timeline to ensure all the shots you want are captured. They are patient, have a great eye for style and will make you feel at ease even though the poses may initially feel awkward.
On the big day, they were early and kept everything on schedule throughout the evening, reminding us where

The simple review is that Blue Soul Photography produces high quality work, quick turnaround, creative and just great people to be around.
They provided us the perfect mix of photos including photos you want/expect, surprising photos you never knew you wanted and provided a fun time doing it all.
Danny and Geoff did our engagement and wedding photos and they were amazing. I sort of wish I had them with me all the time to document my life from their point of view. It's nice to look that good in our photos all the time thanks to them.
Highly recommend having these guys capture your special

We just had our wedding a couple of weeks ago and we are excited to share our experience with Blue Soul Photo. Danny is very animated, professional, and his personality was radiating!
For a wedding photographer, not only are you looking for a person with photography skills but you are also looking for a great personality - you will be with that person for many hours (especially if it is an Asian wedding, it can be up to 10-12 hours). We are very grateful to have found him and used his services - our wedding was on a very rainy day, he and his second photographer, Doug, were very accommodating

My husband and I have never met such a passionate, creative and caring team of photographers. Danny and Geoff make you feel super comfortable and it was so fun just being around them. They are down right the perfect team and they are both friendly and professional. My husband and I were quite nervous on our engagement shoot and they manage to loosen us up and we ended up having so much fun! It is an absolute delight to have this team as our photographers. When our big day came around, they were amazing! They managed to take all the important photos we wanted with our family members along with all

A few of our friends had referred us to Blue Soul Photo while my husband & I were looking for photographers for our wedding last year. We are so glad that we got a chance to work with Danny and Geoff. They are both down to earth and hilarious! Both engagement shoot and the wedding day went extra smooth with the help of Blue Soul. They made us feel comfortable and kept us smiling throughout the day (even though it was a super long day). They were both very professional, friendly and attentive. They even made sure that we were not stressed, fed when we were hungry and stayed hydrated the whole

I have had the privilege to work with Danny and Geoff for several occasions and every time they capture the moment, emotion and invaluable aspects of any given instance. They are truly professionals of their craft. Operating seamlessly amidst the multiple layers of a given event - capturing what seems like every special moment when reviewing the photos.
Blue Soul has come the standard I find myself referencing when considering have photos taken whether at an event, product or lifestyle photography. The level of detail, lighting and overall attitude of the team is what sets Danny and Geoff apart

I had the pleasure of having Blue Soul documenting my wedding day. Both Geoff and Danny were without a doubt absolutely amazing! Not only were they able to capture every magical moment, they were also able to make my husband and his groomsman smile which is rare because they always like to act tough for the camera. I am more than happy with the outcome of their work and will highly recommend them to everyone. Now that there is a new addition to my family, Geoff will be photographing my baby girl in the next couple of days as I know he'll do a fantastic job capturing every unforgettable moment

My husband and I had seen Danny's photo work first-hand in the import auto scene (I'm a 2013 Scion FRS owner) and knew we wanted Danny to be our photographer for our wedding day in November 2013.
I know, I know... this review is LONG overdue... we've had a baby since then, though, so at least I kinda' have an excuse... lol.
Danny was our main shooter and shot our girls getting ready and Doug was our second shooter and shot our boys getting ready until we all came together for the Vietnamese Tea ceremony at my mom's house.
We had 3 different locations -- my mom&apos

Danny did an awesome job on my headshots for my new business. I use them on my website and other social media and depend on them to convey a good image to potential clients.
Danny was super accommodating during the shoot. He let me take my time to get comfortable in front of the camera, and was very patient with me while getting the exact lighting and poses I envisioned. He even had a special assistant to help with super small details like hair placement, positioning jewelry (making sure my necklace was placed just so), and making sure nothing was in my teeth! Every few shots, Danny would let

The photographers of Blue Soul Photo are absolutely wonderful. Not only are they talented, but they are great to be around. During our engagement shoot, as well as on our wedding day, they made us feel comfortable and didn't rush us. They do whatever it takes to get the shot, even if it means they have to lay on the dirty ground! And they're so funny too, so they keep the photo shoots fun as well!
During our engagement shoot, it was so hot out because it was during the Summer, but they were troopers the entire day. Not once did they complain, and they were always so positive and always

This review has been way overdue!!! I am grateful that my family have had the pleasure of working with both Danny and Geoff. I love them so much that they have been our photographers since the beginning of my life's journey with my husband. Danny documented our engagement photos and wedding. It's always awkward trying to pose and smile on demand especially for my husband because he's camera shy, but Danny knew all the tricks to get the perfect picture at the most perfect time. We had a blast during our two separate shoots. The second shoot we had our dog Charley join us. I

This review is long overdue! We hired Blue Soul Photography for my daughter's first birthday last January. Our theme was Alice in Wonderland/Mad Tea Party, and we were looking for a photographer who could capture all of our candid and not-so-candid moments of the special day since it was going to be very colorful in every way possible. Blue Soul Photography was recommended to us by a friend, and hiring them was the best decision ever! Since our event had such a prominent theme, I was planning to give our photographer a list of all of the shots we wanted. I made a bunch of decorations and wanted

I hired Danny and Geoff to photograph my wedding last September and I would say they were my most favorite vendors to work with. My main communication was with Danny and he was super professional, very dependable, and patient. I think it's difficult being photographers especially wedding photographers but they handled all of my requests (and the many requests from our families with ease and a sense of humor!).

It is always a big challenge to photograph coverage during live events as there are many organic elements associated with them. Fortunately, the experienced team at Blue Soul Photo were able to do a great job at capturing those important moments during my event. From the initial planning stage to the follow up customer service, their professionalism is one that deserves high praise.
Thank you Blue Soul Photo. Looking forward to future projects!

My husband and I were expecting our first baby and had chosen Danny of Blue Soul Photo to do our maternity shoot. It is such a privilege to work with Danny. He not only did an amazing job on our photos, but he is had them edited for us within the week. Danny is not only extremely talented, but he is also very patient, funny, and responsible. I remember on the day of the photo shoot, we were suppose to meet at the location of the photo session. Danny got there earlier than us and had already explore the place to see which areas are best for the photos to be taken since he has not been there before

We have had Danny from Blue Soul take photographs for both my kids' first birthday parties. He's always prompt and takes great photos. We trusted Danny to capture the best moments of these important milestones and the results were amazing. He can handle taking pictures of very active kids running around, which takes a lot of patience and skill. Danny always made sure to deliver our photos in a timely manner so we can see and relive the memories of our children's events as soon as possible. We are also able to view photos online so we can share with family. I would highly recommend

Danny and his assistant were a great team. They were with us for the entire day capturing all of our wedding memories. They've had plenty of experience photographing weddings so we knew we could depend on them. They gave us more than enough pictures to choose from to create our album with plenty left to create smaller albums. Danny and his assistant were so patient and professional with us. We are so happy to have their services and highly recommend them to our families and friends.

Blue Soul has everything you want in someone to whom you are entrusting your most precious memories.
Geoff and Danny gave my wife and I the best wedding gift ever, incredible memories of our wedding capturing the magic and bliss we felt. Every shot was a perfect combination of artistic expression and masterful skill. Every time I look at our photos, I fall in love with my wife all over again.
Geoff created for us a beautifully bound book that we paw over regularly, flipping through each page with our smiles growing larger with each turn.
