“When we look back at all the vendors and services we used for our wedding, Arrowood Photography was the by far the best. Let me tell you, my friends drool over our albums.”
“Having Tara at the wedding was like having a good friend there to be part of the experience… she was a fun and supportive person to spend the day with and the comfort that we felt with her was reflected in the photographic results.”
“I can say without a doubt that we choose the best possible photographer for our lifestyle, our needs and our memories. I know this not only because of the tremendous experience we had with Tara, but also because I was beyond diligent when completing my research for Bay Area photographers. I researched no less than 25 photographers online based on friends’ recommendations and actually interviewed 9 of them in hour-long sit-down interviews. What about the results? Timeless. The 1300 pictures we got back from our day were all perfect and full of character, ideal reminders of our day in their flattering lighting, their glowing personality, their full-of-life candor, their popping color, their extreme vibrancy.”
“Tara is awesome!”
“Tara was a calming influence before the wedding, blended into the background during the ceremony/reception, and was very helpful to/patient with us as we narrowed down pictures to use for our album. She exceeded our expectations—we have recommended her to EVERYONE.”
“I knew the moment I met her and saw her beautiful photographs that Tara was an artist keenly attuned to the emotional aspect of weddings. Everyone just looks happy and beautiful in all her shots! Both she and Kevin made us all laugh throughout the day. We have joked on many occasions that the two things we’ll grab in the event of a fire are our baby and our wedding album!”
