I had Julio take pictures of my family for my holiday cards in 2018. With a young and energetic child, I was anticipating some difficulties, but everything worked out really well. The location Julio suggested was great, and we love how the photos turned out. We will be definitely using Julio in the future for our photography needs.

We made a family session with Julio in Big Bear Lakes last month. Yesterday I received the photos and they are AMAZING!!! The best photos I've ever had!
Julio was very patient with the kids (that hate having their pictures taken), and we got the photos back very quickly!
I will do it again as soon as possible in a new place!

If you are looking for a maternity photographer you found it! Julio Fonyat is super professional and charismatic and we really enjoyed the whole experience. He suggested Solana trail as the location for our session and the photos turned out beautiful! Exactly how we were imagining! I’m so happy that we chose him to be our photographer for such a special moment in our lives. Thank you!

We were very lucky to find Julio while planning our wedding. He was one of the photographers the venue recommended, and we were amazed when we got to his website galleries.
He was always available via email and text for any additional questions we had. Since we didn’t have a wedding coordinator, his help prior to the wedding was crucial. Julio made sure we had time to shoot portraits in the best possible lighting, and figured out a way for us to not be away from the guests for too long.
The engagement session was a nice experience. It was the first time we ever took professional pictures, but

We chose Julio Fonyat to photograph our engagement session and wedding day after we saw my great friend’s wedding personal website and photobooth video.
My wife and I were really amazed with the uniqueness and quality of their beautiful photos. When we met with Julio, we knew he was the perfect match for our wedding photography needs.
I must say that Julio, and his lovely wife - second photographer - were highly professional all the way, which pleased us a lot.
The “enormous" task of capturing the special moments of the big day, that goes by so fast, was performed to perfection, as he chose

I'm not even sure where to begin this review because Julio is so amazing. My fiancee and I were referred to Julio by a colleague of mine and I knew that as soon as I saw Julio's work, I had to have him shoot my wedding. So, I contacted him immediately to check his availability was so happy to find out he was free. He took the time to meet with us in person (along with our three kids who Julio never seemed bothered by!) and explain to us everything he does. He didn't try to push us to by anything extra and really listened to everything we said. Recently, we had our engagement shoot and it was so

I will try to keep this short and sweet...besides the photos being absolutely beautiful for a very reasonable price---
-Awesome landscape experience, so if you're looking for a more outdoorsy rustic theme, Julio's style is perfect.
-He's super quick to reply, genuinely a very friendly easy-going guy, and he gave us a TON of suggestions. I was also impressed with how helpful Julio was in giving us planning tips for the big day. We had no idea what we were getting into planning the wedding ourselves and we were grateful for his guidance.

Amanda and I had the pleasure of having Julio Fonyat photograph our wedding this spring. I cannot put into words how satisfied we were with Julio's work. His professionalism and attention to detail were second to none, and he made sure to capture so many unique moments during our special day.
We were really pleased that Julio was able to work with us even though we hired him with such short notice. His session in between the ceremony and reception was the highlight of our experience, we had left it completely up to him to decide on the location of the shoot and we were far from disappointed. In
