Nick was the photographer for our corporate event at The Battery in San Francisco in late June. The event was 3-10pm, and Nick was there for the first 5 hours.
Nick is extremely professional and a truly gifted photographer. He was punctual, knew exactly which moments to capture before being asked and took amazing shots of the entire event. It is very difficult to find a photographer who takes amazing conference and social photos, and Nick captured each section of the event flawlessly. Nick also was able to move about the event without being a distraction and was therefore able to capture true candid moments of guests enjoying the views, cocktails and each other's company.
He turned around more photos then initially requested within hours of the event, and was able to arrange our entire gallery less than a week after the event. Every photo was of the highest quality - the photos captured each major moment of our event, the ambience of the venue and the atmosphere created during the reception.
I would recommend Nick in a heartbeat, and plan on reserving him for every future event based in San Francisco.

Nick was with my wife and I throughout the entire wedding day. He showed up bright and early at our home as we were getting ready, and he stayed until the bonfire at the end of the night. All the while getting great shots of the ceremony, reception, and the little details in between. He was hands on when we wanted him to be, helping us to relax for some of the more 'posey' shots, but he also knew to step back when we wanted some alone time. Your wedding is one where you only want close friends/family around, so were a little skeptical of having a photographer around the whole day, but Nick fit effortlessly in like we had known him for years. Oh, and again, the pictures...fantastic. The lighting, the composition, and the fact that unlike some other wedding photographers work, his photos seem very natural. Totally captured the spirit of the day. Thanks Nick!
