It was an absolute pleasure to work with Torez! She was extremely communicative, organized and made us feel really comfortable as she snapped some candids and posed pictures that we’ll treasure forever!
Torez has an eye for catching nuanced moments/details that tell a beautiful story. Look no further -do yourself a favor and hire her for your special day!!

There aren't enough words or stars to compliment Torez and her dedication to her work. We spent a year planning, consulting, and preparing with her to photograph our wedding morning and ceremony. We live in Florida and Torez made it SO easy to work with her from across the country!
She goes above and beyond, truly. Not just her amazing photograph skills but also constant communication, friendliness, and expertise. She always has a smile on her face and seems to enjoy what she does. We were thrilled to also get back sneak peaks the next day before we even flew back home! I would easily book her again and possibly fly her out to us for future big events! I recommend her 10/10 easily based on all she does.

Torez took my engagement photos at Filoli/Pulgas Temple. I had a vision for a renaissance romantic vibe and Torez caught the idea and absolutely knocked it out of the park. Torez is a very sweet and easy going person and she made me feel at ease instantly.
I think that the photos that I received really capture my partner and I. These are photos we are going to look back on as we get older and they will always remind me of how much we love each other. I was really worried about posing but Torez’s suggestions and her encouraging comments made the process easier than most experiences I’ve had in the past. Looking forward to our next project together!!

"We found Torez on Instagram and loved her work! To pick her out for our elopement was the best choice we could make! She really dug to know our 'vibe' as a couple, she's always smiling, so nice and professional (responds very quickly) and the photos are just stunning! She knows everything about San Francisco City Hall (the best places to take pictures but also how the elopement goes) and it's highly appreciated not only before, but also on the day of the ceremony.
We don't regret our choice one single second and would recommend her to everyone! We're glad to get these photos as souvenirs of this day!
Thank you again and again."

"We are so in love with the photos Torez took for our civil wedding at San Francisco City Hall. From the very beginning, Torez was friendly, helpful, and professional. She captured the most lovely moments of our small ceremony, and we couldn't be happier with the results. I was very nervous about the day's logistics, but Torez knows everything about San Francisco City Hall, which made things go stress-free and smoothly. I've received so many compliments about the photos of my wedding day, and I'm more than obsessed with them. They look so natural and beautiful. We highly recommend Torez's services to everyone!
Thank you so much for everything!"
"TOREZ KNOWS EVERYTHING ABOUT SAN FRANCISCO CITY HALL."
- Marizol & Julian
"Torez was such an amazing part of our wedding day. My husband and I planned our wedding at city hall from out of state so Torez met with us via Zoom to discuss details and creative ideas. She was so helpful with answering questions and providing tons of helpful information for planning our special day. When we finally got to meet Torez the day of the wedding, we immediately vibed and felt comfortable with her as she helped guide us through the day. I will forever be grateful for her and the AMAZING work she did on our wedding photos. I 100/10 recommend Torez for any photography needs, she’s the best!!"
"I will forever be grateful for her."

"My fiancée and I LOVE the engagement photos Torez took. We were nervous going into the session (in San Francisco) but Torez took the edge off right away and made us feel comfortable. She had great recommendations about where to go and how to move around together.
Our photos ended up capturing us beautifully – they don’t feel too “posed” or unnatural. Torez was communicative through the whole process and got our photo set back to us quickly. We highly recommend her as a photographer."
"Our photos ended up capturing us beautifully."

"Searching for a photographer in our time frame was stressful but right from the start we felt a warmth and confidence from Torez that quickly put us at ease. Her quick responses, reassurance, and patience with our questions made us feel heard and confident that we found the right person.
She understood how much it meant to include our dogs on our special day and she kindly offered to take care of them during the photoshoot. Torez was a joy to take our engagement photos and she clearly put tremendous personal effort to make it a memorable experience for us and our two weenie dogs. We are absolutely in love with our photos and would definitely work with Torez again. 10/10 RECOMMEND!!"
"RIGHT FROM THE START WE FELT A WARMTH AND CONFIDENCE FROM TOREZ."
