Hear from Our Clients

---

We had a unique situation as we were planning our whole wedding from Texas! Of made the entire process so easy and was so flexible the entire planning process. On the day of, OC felt like he was part of the family and was so nice to enjoy the day with. He was so attentive to the tiniest details and it shows in our flawless photos. I can’t say enough great things about OC. You are getting more than your money’s worth! We could not have been happier with having OC as our photographer and we will continue to use him for everything! Anyone who is looking for a photographer, you just found him!!

OC photographed our wedding in June 2019 and he was one of the best vendors I hired. He spent the entire day with us and made sure that all my needs were met (including a Starbucks run). He paid attention to the specific pictures I asked for and made sure to capture all the details of my perfect day. One of the things that stuck out to me about the quality of his work is when I had guests leave early and OC quit eating his dinner so he could capture some pictures of the guests and myself; I thought that was very admirable and really showed that he puts his clients first. I felt so worry free having OC there and I am so very appreciative that I have his work to look back on and remember my beautiful day. Hiring OC is one of the best decisions a bride can make!

OC was the best photographer decision for our wedding. Not knowing San Diego or anyone around, I was scared to hire someone unknown, but let me tell you - you will not only get the most amazing images he has an amazing personality. The day of the wedding he became like my assistant (I am sorry for that), but he was on everything. He ensure I was happy and nothing was stressing me out. Pictures are beautiful and everyone loved him.
Thank you so much OC! We will recommend you to everyone and will hire you for other events

10/10 would recommend OC for your wedding photographer.  He exceeded our expectations in every way, it was such a pleasure working with someone so well rounded.  Great communication skills, responds quickly and is easy to talk to.  Listens and adds his professional input when needed, this was much appreciated because I can be indecisive.  Oc is also friendly and confident in his work which put us at ease.  Prompt, was early the day of my wedding ceremony.  Efficient and got my wedding photos back to me edited quickly.  Professional and very talented at what he does.  I can tell he is passionate about his job and this really reflects in the quality of his work.  OC worked well together with Fadi who assisted him with lighting equipment.  We felt we were in good hands with both of them.  OC was able to guide us in posing for each photo, he was very patient with us.  We would be lost without his directions to be honest, he corrected our posture, the way my hair lied, where we held our hands and bouquet, etc.  Bless his heart for constantly fixing my dress train, this really made all the difference in all the photos.  The quality of the photos blew me away especially for the price.  I am not the most photogenic person so I was so worried prior to going into the photoshoot but there really was no need to stress.  I was so blown away by my photos, they were so dreamy and breath taking.  OCs photo editing is also on point.  I loved that he was able to put together a quick video with highlights from our wedding photos.  Lastly, I really admired OC as a person he was very thoughtful.  Whether it’s offering a ride, Starbucks pick me up-he is the type of person who puts others first.  Hope to work with OC again one day in the future : )

We had been looking for a photographer a couple months before we found OC.  We looked at website after website and were disappointed to see most of the packages available were rather bland and “cookie-cutter.”  We were particularly disappointed to see that booking a photographer seemed akin to just getting someone scheduled to take pictures.  How pleasantly surprised we were when we first sat down with OC!  If you want someone who brings passion instead of templates to your wedding…someone who is an artist instead of someone who is just there taking pictures for five or six-hour blocks...then look no further than OC.  When he told us he doesn’t charge by the hour—he charges by the event, I thought we’d merely have him for a little longer than expected.  He was there from the minute my makeup started going on until the last dance of the evening.  His endurance is impressive.  He not only captured multiple angles of every moment, he included an extra location and never missed a beat—the entire day!  Wedding days are long—and ours was no exception.  He was there all day during the wedding and several meetings leading up to the big day. He is a true professional.  And really, by the time our wedding was over and we got the pictures, we knew OC and his brilliant work well enough to highly recommend him to everyone for a variety of events.  He is absolutely the best there is.

Going with OC, was absolutely the best decision we made for our wedding. Getting the right photographer for your special day that will stay with you from early morning till the party ends, literally until the party ends, it is also very important to have someone who is calm, collected, organized, and professional on your side. Because let's face it, things are not going to go exactly as planned and so you need to know there is someone there who is unbiased, and has done these weddings and can give you recommendations that you can trust.
The pictures were beautiful!! So different and original! In addition to his great work product, his great personality really took pressure off the wedding day. He was so calm and collected! You feel like you have your best friend who cares about how you feel, and makes you feel very comfortable despite the fact that you are already in so much stress because of the Big Day.
We decided to go with him to be our engagement and wedding photographer and videographer. And by far was one of our best decision.
We took our honeymoon a month after our wedding and while we were waiting in the airport lounge we were surprised to see him delivering the wedding photos which made the long flight very enjoyable.
You will never be disappointed when you go with OC and we highly recommend him.

OC Yousif is one of the greatest photographers out there. We finally got our photos he pictured every single moment that we hoped will be captured. The timing, angle, where both like something out of a magazine.My husband and I are usually not photogenic , but OC Yousif made us look like a fairy tale couple. He also did an incredible job keeping us on our time schedule. He was very punctual and made sure we were on track for everything. With how hectic our wedding day was that is something that we really needed and he made sure he delivered on that. We highly recommend him and we'll be very sure that we use him in the future. I feel like he is going to be well-known and famous for his work in the future so I'm glad we caught him to work with him when we did.

If he is not part of your upcoming event you are by all means missing so much!!! I thank God every time I look at my wedding pictures that he was there. He is funny, patient, beyond talented, lovely, outgoing, organized and most importantly; makes you feel like he is a family member❤️he doesn’t just do his part and leave he was literally a wedding coordinator which saved our wedding. Not to mention how BEAUTIFUL our pictures turned out. Thank you dear! You will always have a special place in our hearts❤️

We absolutely loved working with OC! We initially met him last year and we liked his personality right away. He was honest and I liked his past work. What sold me was when he explained to me he charged by the day, not hour which is not the norm, but he was right, a wedding doesn't just last a few hours!
He responds very quickly and had great ideas that I hadn't thought of yet, showing he has alot of experience. Unfortunately since our wedding was postponed, we decided to elope. I changed locations and dates multiple times, but OC was always very flexible and responsive during this. During our elopement shoot, he even went above and beyond to take many photos of us, and I'm so grateful he did, because I loved it all! He made us feel comfortable and excited for it and took great shots, as well as some funny ones.
I cannot wait till our wedding reception to have even more memories photographed by OC, because I know he does his best to capture it all perfectly.

To say we loved OC is an understatement. My husband and I had such a great experience working with him and would recommend him to anyone in a heart beat!!! Working with OC on our special day was honestly our favorite part of the day.

OC was extremely professional but also had such a fun personality. He helped keep our mood upbeat with lots of laughter, which is greatly appreciated since we did have several mishaps throughout the day.

His pictures came out beautiful! The lightening, the crisp clear images, and the fun natural poses all contributed to such gorgeous pictures that we will enjoy for a lifetime. He truly listened to the type of photos we wanted (light, fun and goofy) and captured it all perfectly. I'm shocked that the quality of his work was as affordable as it was. OC even did some last minute photoshop (due to a venue mistake) for no extra cost!

Our wedding had some mishaps and most of it seemed like such a blur, but OC was our shining light to the madness of the day and we couldn't be more thankful for choosing him as our photographer! Thank you OC!

OC was one of our favorite vendors!! We met him at the Bridal Bazaar and are so glad we did. He was so flexible in finding a package that would work for our needs and budget. He was exceedingly nice (and funny) throughout the whole process. He did both our engagement and wedding photos which were absolutely amazing. He had no time limit for our package and went way above and beyond to get all the locations we wanted for the engagement and to get such great photos from morning to night at our wedding. We had many compliments not only on the photos, but OC being so friendly and fun at the wedding! We would highly recommend OC to everyone. He is the best!
