Zul Arifin Photography

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
Zul was WAY more than I could have dreamed of! I had seen some of his work online and it looked good, but I had NO IDEA how AMAZZZIIINNNNNGGG our wedding pictures would turn out! Honestly, we were in a bit of a time crunch only weeks away from the wedding, we found him on Craigslist and hoped for the best. Not only did he kindly agree to do the more traditional wedding photos, which aren’t typically his thing (getting the family together, then the bridal parties and so on), but he did a great job of taking lots of those photos!
One thing I loved was that he took pictures of the wedding ceremony and reception areas before all the guests arrived, so you can really just take in the beauty of the asthetics and the gorgeous sonoma area where it was held before all the craziness started. Then, he took pictures of my partner and I when we first saw one another, lots of romantic pics of the two of us as well as lots of fun, candid moments taken at the right time. I can tell that he takes a lot of pride in his work and does only the best. I am SO happy that we got to work with him and am so grateful that I have these fabulous pictures to cherish forever and ever.
He gave us a really good deal too. Also, for any other gay couples out there, he was wonderful with us, so I also give him the «gay friendly» mark;)

Zul is an amazing photographer! We hoped to have a handful of pictures and he provided loads of photos that we loved! He not only captured the beautiful scenery of Santa Cruz, but was able to capture the beauty and love we felt on our special day! Thank you so much for capturing a moment in time that we can look back to and share for years to come!

We just got the pictures from our wedding and it was exactly what we had hoped for. Zul-You’ve outdone yourself again! Absolutely beautiful photos of not only the bride & groom but also of all our family and friends. The photos are available on line to share and we’ve been receiving so many compliments on how they turned out. We’ll be blowing these up and giving them to friends & family for the holidays!
The wedding day is such a blur for a bride so I’m so THANKFUL to have fabulous photos to capture the memory of this ever so special day. We would LOVE to hire Zul again in the future for all our photog needs!

Zul has a great eye for photo composition. We wanted to frame nearly 90% of all the pictures he took for our engagement sessions. Personally, Zul is a very easy going guy with a professional attitude. We feel very lucky to have found Zul.
