Todd Johnson Production

Todd is not only a fantastic photographer, but a wonderful person as well. He photographed my wedding and I am always so proud to show off the photographs! The beauty he sees in day to day surroundings translates magically into such beautiful backgrounds on print. He and his team were nice and interactive with our guests making them comfortable having their picture taken. They were fun to work with on our couples shots and happy to try fun and different things (like climbing a tree and using an infrared camera!). They made sure to get all of the important shots without invading the event and pulling any attention away. I recommend Todd Johnson Production for anyone looking for a kind and incredibly talented photographer who loves to capture the happiness and unique moments of your day!

A one of a kind photographer/​artist, passionate about his work, committed to excellence and highly knowledgeable in addition to being a great human being. The best money spent in the wedding by far. It was both a joy and pleasure to work with him and his team during our wedding.

My husband and I worked with a magnificent wedding planner. She gave us a selection of photographers to choose from and without hesitation we chose Todd Johnson Photography. Todd’s work is exceptionally creative and beautifully done. This is one of the most important days in your lives and over the years you will enjoy remembering it through photos that capture the essence of every moment of the event. Everyone who looks at the album he developed for us cannot stop raving about the photography. And we love looking at it! It’s more than photos, IT’S A WORK OF ART!
OTHER REASONS WE WOULD CHOOSE TODD ALL OVER AGAIN:
Todd caught special moments through out the ceremony and reception, so that we can remember them in perpetuity.
Todd is very bright! Therefore you don’t worry that he has everything covered and has thought through everything. Additionally, he is very personable, easy going, flexible, responsive, organized and extremely professional, as are the members of the team that work with him.
He includes in his price, a few hour photo shoot in a an outdoor place of beauty prior to the wedding. This allows him to get to know you and do a practice run of photos of you as a couple. You can then use these photos as a component of your wedding announcement or invitation, or as a large mounted photo at your wedding. He knew that we love to hike and found a stunning location in the Santa Monica mountains where we hike.
We had hundreds of photos to choose from on an online site that was easy for all of our guests to choose from and reminisce about the wedding and the great time they had. It was available within days after the wedding and up on his website for a long time for selection. Todd asked us when we were ready to take it down.
We like Todd’s work so much that we have already hired him again for professional photos.
Consider Todd for your special day. IT’S A SURE BET THAT HE WILL CAPTURE MEMORIES OF YOUR DAY THAT WILL GREATLY EXCEED YOUR EXPECTATIONS. And this is coming from a perfectionist with quite high standards!

Todd is a rare find — a true professional and artist who reliably brings out the best in people and their locations. Todd & his team were friendly, attentive, accommodating and professional the entire time they worked with us. He finds purpose in his work; his experience & the level of detail /​prep that goes into every shoot allows Todd to be creative & fun in the moment. It’s clear he loves what he does and the people he works with, and we strongly recommend him to anyone searching for a photographer.
For our engagement shoot, Todd took what little direction we gave him («We like Dana Point») and scouted the area on our behalf to snap preview photos and to propose a fully mapped photo shoot that took us from Dana Point to a local hiking trail we’d never seen and finally to the local mission in San Juan Capistrano. Throughout the shoot, Todd and his assistant, Jon, kept us laughing so we wouldn’t get sick of smiling for hours on end.
In our wedding prep, Todd worked with us on our schedule to accommodate photography @ three locations: hotel, church, and reception venue. But we were surprised that he also attended our scheduling sessions with our reception venue and our church rehearsal. Reps from both places pointed out how rare it is for photographers to attend those meetings. Todd simply said it was a necessary part of his prep.
On our wedding day, Todd and his assistants kept us on schedule to the minute. His assistant Jon got all the nephews and nieces to smile for the full 30 minutes of family pictures. I can’t emphasize what an accomplishment that is, ’cause some of those kids hate smiling.
After our wedding, friends warned that it could take as long as 6 months to see our photos from the photographer. In our case, we had our photo book and hard drive in less than 2 months and we couldn’t have been happier w/​our photos. Throughout the finishing process, Todd continued to show the same attentiveness to our needs and to picture quality. He even went out of his way to expedite a reprint of our photo book when one of the corners was damaged in delivery.
While we researched wedding photographers, lots of people recommended their own wedding photographers to us but the people who worked with Todd were the most insistent that he was the best. In our wedding, even other vendors were impressed by him as a professional. After working with him on our wedding, it’s obvious to see why Todd has won so many awards for his work. Again, we can’t recommend him highly enough and hope you’ll do the same.

I have worked with Todd! He did an amazing job. The way he captures light and softens the moment while making it luminescent is surreal.
Plus he was so professional. Onsite he was shooting hundreds of pictures while also having his support team work on editing via laptop in makeshift workroom they created for the night. What a team!
Creativity+Professionalism=Todd Johnson Productions
As he is more expensive than others. Simple supply and demand, I am sure. If you can afford the extra dollars this is a risk free investment. You will be thrilled.
One more thing, he was so patient with the photo album. He reworked and reworked until just the right photos deemed the perfect match. Afterall, it is hard to pick when everything is beautiful.

Ahh I don’t know if I should share him because I love him but am not going to use him. He’s too expensive and I just don’t feel right about spending $$$$$… even though I am huuuge on photography — *sigh*. It was a hard decision, but I’m at peace now and hope someone else will be able to admire and enjoy his work as much as I have!!! Visit
so you know what I mean.
I’ve been following him forever and LOVE LOVE LOVE his work. I met up with him for an initial consultation and he is the coolest person! He works out of his home studio and we chatted on his couch while playing with his dog (poodle/​golden retriever mix). His work is breathtakingly beautiful, his albums stunning… he has won several photography awards and his artistic interpretation is like no other wedding photographer I have ever encountered. I was scared he’d be «pretentious» and «snobby» because he certainly has every right to be, but he was completely down-​to-​earth and just an average joe!
He considers himself a boutique photography studio and not a «wedding factory» so he only takes on about 10 – 14 weddings per year. If anyone books him, let me know so I can live vicariously through you! :)
