Keith and Steve were so great; I was planning my wedding in a short timeframe, and came to them about 2 months before my wedding. Since I live down on the Penninsula and they're up in Lafayette, they were always willing to talk via phone or email instead of in-person since it was such a drive for me. I haven't received my photos yet (wedding was only 2 days ago) but Steve was great about showing me photos on his camera after he took them so I have full confidence they'll be as beautiful as all of the others they showed me.
Since our venue was a new one for Steve, he showed up early, and on his own time to scout some locations which I really appreciated. He was very easy to work with, and quite accommodating of our wackiness. He had a lot of suggestions (because I had no idea what I was doing!) and was also an expert at arranging my train.
The value couldn't be beat. Definitely recommend!

Lynd's photography is affordable and professional. We met with Keith (the owner) twice, first to discuss packages/options and second to discuss time-line/day-of issues. We were given a questionnaire about ourselves, what kind of pictures we wanted and family members' names. Our photographer Steve was there so we were able to meet him. If it's important for you to meet the photographer before hand you will have to set up a time, it's not something they just do.

Steve came on time and started shooting pictures right away. He was a real pleasure to work with. He gave us good direction but also got a lot of candid shots. He was very non-invasive and stayed out of sight/thought but captured every moment. Steve was great!

5 stars all the way! Keith and Mark shot photo and video for my wedding this year. They were absolutely GREAT! - they were extremely flexible and easy to work with the whole way through, from the planning/preparation that we had to do all over the phone, to the actual wedding day. If they were flustered or stressed, they never showed it, even when we got WAY behind schedule, and were getting unexpectedly rained on at our outdoor wedding! They were all smiles and got a lot of really wonderful pictures. They were also open to working with us to stay within our budget. We could not be more satisfied with their work and would definitely recommend them!

Keith Lynds is great. Our photographer, Joe, took many great photos despite the fact that it rained on our wedding day. He was really good at thinking up alternatives to an outside setting for photos. Very professional, friendly, and nice. Quick turn around on photos. Highly recommend!

Keith and Steve are AMAZING! Right from the start, Keith was extremely professional and so easy to work with. Very detailed oriented!! Our wedding pictures were absolutely GORGEOUS and our video was awesome!! We couldn't be happier. We got married in Carmel, CA and we asked Keith and Steve if it was possible to get our video overnighted to us for the reception we were having 4 days later back in AZ. To our surprise, we got BOTH our pictures AND video within 2 days!! My husband and I would HIGHLY recommend Lynds Photography! AMAZING WORK and such nice people. Our family and friends can't stop complimenting our pictures and video. Thanks Keith and Steve!!! :) Lee and Steve

I love love love the pictures from my wedding! Working with Lynds Photography was such a wonderful and easy experience. We met with Keith a few months before our wedding in his studio and he gave us so many options for our wedding images. He works with several excellent photographers, and made sure to have us working with someone who had experience with our venue. We worked with Joe on our wedding day and he took such amazing pictures of our special day. We received all of our beautiful pictures less than 2 weeks after our wedding. When looking for our wedding photographer, we wanted to work with someone who takes incredible pictures, has many years of wedding experience, and would send us all of our images within a few weeks of the wedding. We know too many couples that waited almost a year to get their pictures back. Joe made sure that we got all the important pictures we asked for, took lots of creative shots and kept us on time and on track. He not only document the day, but really did an amazing job telling the story of the day told in still images.

I highly recommend working with Lynds Photograph. When I look at the pictures, I really remember every part of our incredible wedding. Thank you so much Keith and Joe!

Finding and working with Keith and Steve was such a huge blessing to us. I still remember the time when I was searching for a photographer for our wedding last October...it was very hard because we were on a tight budget. Every time I'd call around and started mentioning I was on a budget, I would get a cold shoulder and brushed off. Fortunately, we found Keith and Steve. When I spoke with Keith for the first time over the phone, he was kind and welcoming (this was after letting him know that we were on a budget) treatment did not change. In fact, Keith was the one who kept on following up and making sure that everything was fine. Keith made sure that it would be a stress-free wedding for us and it was. He was not greedy on payments and in fact he was generous enough to work out some payment plan for us.

As far as the wedding pictures and videos, they are amazing!!! I can't believe how clear and detailed they are. Let me tell you guys about Steve (our photographer) HE WAS OUTSTANDING!!!! Even our guests and entourage had so much fun with Steve. He was such a good sport and he was also very patient and he would totally guide us on what to do and how to pose. Even when we added time "inadvertently", Keith and Steve was completely professional enough to handle the situation---and the show went on like it was planned that way. The Tunnel of Love photo shoot was an experience to remember as Steve made it happen for us. Even if we all acted inane out there, Steve was able to pull it off. Our families and friends kept talking about it for weeks. Albeit we totally miss Keith's and Steve's company, we have the beautiful pictures and videos to watch and look at.

Having all that said, my husband and I were a bit ambivalent about hiring professional photographers at first. But the minute we spoke with Keith and also met him right after, all those feelings settled. Keith was very solicitous with our needs.

Over all, Keith and Steve did and provided an impeccable job!!! We would defintely recommend them to families and friends.

I Think Lynd"s Photo did a fabulous job on our wedding day. The pictures came out beautiful and very professional job they performed for us on our wedding day. I would recommend them to every wedding that needs a photographer.

My new husband and I just got all of our proofs online from Keith and Kenny at Lynds Photo. We live in Denver, CO and were eagerly awaiting the pictures. They came within a week of the wedding! And, they were SO amazing. Everything we wanted to have captured was done perfectly. It took us through the whole wedding and we are SO excited to have the photos on disc too (I can't even say how much of a value this is too us).

From the more-than-affordable pricing up front, to the comfortable vibe of the first sit-down meeting, to the ease of planning from out-of-state...I couldn't be happier. All of the guests at the wedding spoke so highly of Keith and Kenny (videography and photography)--they loved them as much as we did.

As someone who has never been married before, and someone who has a professional photographer for a brother, I was wary of planning a wedding from long distance (or choosing a photographer off the internet). But Lynds Photo made it such a breeze.

Friendly. Sweet. Professional. What more could I say.

I definitely recommend Lynds. I called around for quotes from at least 6 photographers. Some wouldn't give me a straight answer; others were willing to give me a "special" that day but the cost was still astronomical for me. Lynds had a good basic package that included a reasonable amount of photography-time, all the digital negatives on DVD, and the option to purchase quality prints or books from them in the future. While the cost was lower than "the other guys", they know their business and are very professional-- you don't get the newbie who is just learning, you get a photographer who knows his/her business well. They were also very familiar with our venue, so that was an added bonus. They also kept their promise and had all the pictures on DVD for me within 2 weeks. I've had friends that have waited months.

Thanks for the kind words Dana! You and Daniel have been awesome to work with! Hacienda de las Flores in moraga is a great vuenue as well.

Lynd's was wonderful to work with, from the planning process all the way through to the delivery of our pictures. Keith's pricing is extremely fair and the quality of work was incredible. The photographer he assigned to us was nothing short of amazing. She was calm and professional yet able to corral friends and family and capture all of the important moments throughout the day. I highly recommend Lynd's.

We had our engagement photos done with Lynd's to make sure that we liked their stuff and they turned out great. Not only that, we had so much fun! Steve and Keith are such a great photographic team to work with and have such good ideas. I can't stop looking at our photos!

I used Lynds photography for my wedding in San Francisco and am EXTREMELY happy!!!! All of our pictures turned out great!! Keith had some awesome ideas for candid shots which turned out to be our favorite picture. I would recommend Keith for any occassion. We will be using him again for our son's portraits!!The price was affordable and the service was great!!

I can not possibly say enough positive things about Lynd's Photography. Everyone on their staff is professional, prompt and works at the highest level of customer service and skill in their profession. On my wedding day Nadine had the perfect balance of getting those amazing photographs, doing it in line with our time-line, but also just letting us enjoy our day and not having to be the center of things. I heard so many horror stories about other photographers at other companies and from brides who after 2 years hadn't looked at the pictures because the memory of the photographer made her fume and cry....but after speaking with the staff on the phone, visiting their office and meeting with everyone to outline what types of photos we like, how we wanted our album to look and what our budget was, we couldn't have been happier! They are so knowledgeable about everything, from planning a timeline for the evening, to helping you plan how many hours you want to book them to really helping put that artistic touch on your album. My whole family was so pleased with their work, my sister is now using them for her wedding!

As the bride I was somewhat late to arrive at my destination, but no worries, the photographer was there ready and waiting! Patiently, I might add, as I started to talk with others, on what needed to be done [minor stuff], he followed along and even asked to assist me in carrying my bridal gown. I haven't seen the pictures, but believe they will turn out great and candid!

Lynds photography is an awesome deal. They charge very competitive rates and give you all the high quality digital images to keep! A lot of photographers keep the digital files and only give you prints. In addition to the good price, they had great service. Keith met with us for an hour privately twice to make sure we were happy with everything. They go out of their way to make you feel like you are important. Naomi was our photographer. She was very calming and very creative. Neither my husband nor I like being photographed, but she made the experience simple and fun. She chose shots that reflected our personalities and love for each other. We’re really happy with the way the photos turned out.

Keith & Joe of Lynds Photography do amazing work for a great price. They were recommended to us by a friend and after interviewing several photographers, we were thrilled that we went with them. They were flexible and very nice, even when dealing with my occasional bouts of Bridezilla-ness. Joe took 550 photos at our wedding and was very creative and professional. He also had a great sense of humor and patience. In the end, we had so many nice photos to choose from and the colors were brilliant. They will be lasting memories that I will always be proud of and cherish.

We had great pictures taken by Lynds. The price was great too! If you book with them the same day as your initial appointment you get an hour free! One negative thing we didn't meet our photographer till the day of the wedding, and some of the shots we had initially written down didn't get taken. So you have to be on top of getting all the shots you want! Other than that really good quality pics!

Lynds Photography was great. They had an excellent value for the money and I loved the plans they offered. My husband and I didn't want to pay for a bunch of prints we didn't want. We went with Lynds because we could just pay for the photographers time and for a CD of all our wedding photos. We had full rights afterwords to make prints and even make our own wedding photo book. The photos turned out alright. We didn't get the photographer we wanted. I do wish we had gotten some more artisticy, cool shots, and some of the photos I wish were taken at better angles but over all I was happy.

They have lots of options, they wedding packages seem to be generally in the normal affordable range, and the photobooks are nice. I like the Kingston design books they offer.

Wonderful, wonderful photos. My family has been very pleased with the creativity and professionalism of the photos. I have a huge family but Nadine handled them very well and got all the shots I asked for (what was possible to do.)

The company made me feel very at ease. I get very stressed if I don't feel someone is paying attention to details I ask for, but Nadine make a checklist and was right on top of it.

We had some minor changes to the original contract (we started with one photographer with an assistant and ended with a better photographer with no assistant.) I was glad my sister came along to fix all the little things in photos - there always needs to be an assistant for details.

Overall, the outcome was super wonderful. I would recommend Nadine to every wedding.

We met with the owner who made us very excited about our wedding day and was very professional and honest about expectations. The day of the wedding, we met with the photographer (thinking there would be two people as we were told) and she was nice, but a little pushy, which can be understood due to time restraints. She did produce quite a few good quality photos, but seemed to miss the timing and "perfect moment" in many others. We are thankful for their services, but would probably recommend trying someone else.

Vendor response to review

Perhaps you didn’t get my voicemail or email asking to discuss your concerns in person or over the phone. I am mystified as to how you came to expect two photographers at your wedding, as this arrangement is not part of our standard wedding coverage. A second photographer is available as an option, at an additional fee, and I do not have any record of even discussing this option with you.

Also, realize that our photographers care about whether you get the photos you request, which is why they may take steps to try to keep to the agreed upon schedule. It is for your benefit--so you get the photos--and not because they want to be controlling. Even so, your photographer made sure she got every last one of the photo requests on your handwritten request list, consisting of 17 requests, from photos of Brett when he first saw you down the aisle to silhouettes of both of you at sunset.

She also got totally candid photos, such as close ups of the bee that got into your sand glass, and you shaking the glass. When I reviewed your photos, I also saw many showing genuine emotion,tears and smiles, throughout the day and into the reception. From what I could see, timing and capture of perfect moments could not have been much improved.

Our wedding pictures came out beautiful, but I can't say it was an easy experience. What I didn't realize upon initial signing of the contract is that little of the actual photography was going to be done by the Steve or Keith from Lynds Photography, but instead outsourced to another free lance photographers that they contract with for the majority of their business. We had the privilege of working with Joe Huston, who is a very nice guy and takes some beautiful pictures; however, there were some example pictures on their website that we wanted but unable to reproduce due to the plurality of the photographers that they use. Whether they want to admit it or not, different photographers bring different things to the table (styles, equipment, etc.). As far as the editing of the album, Lynd's photography did a nice job although it did not include some of the special effects which we spoke about during the initial appointment (which months later they said were available for an additional fee). Most of my other vendors, included all the cost up front when quoting(including taxes), so I didn't appreciate the hidden fees later on. Furthermore, my understanding is that I would receive all of my images on the dvd (including the engagement pictures) but later on it was explained to me that by ALL they only meant the ones from the actual wedding day. I can understand this, because they have to make money some how from these free promotional engagements portraits but again there were just too many unexpected surprises for my liking. After spending over $2000 for my photography, and waiting around 3 months for my album, all I can say is that I'm glad the experience is over.

Vendor response to review

Kerrisha and Nicolas, i am sorry that you did not feel you had a good experience with us. We try very hard to provide a wonderful experience and have all terms well communicated as well. Joe did such an outstanding job on your engagement portrait that we made it a sample (guest book) album in the studio. The special effects you asked for were tricky but we did not charge any additional for your requests. The price list is clear that the portrait session includes an 11x14 display print, digital files are additional.

Every change and request you asked for in your album design was accommodated but it took time due to numerous changes and requests. We are making a sample album of the wedding pictures too to highlight the Walnut Creek Marriott Hotel.

Vey flexible and seems very professional, however, the mistake I made was trying to save money on one of the most important parts of my wedding day, now I know photography is everything! I am glad I only let Lynds do our engagement photos, and not our actual wedding day photos. Let me just say, when you meet with Keith he will show you all these great/creative pictures but beware, these are a collection from MULTIPLE photographers at Lynds. I already worked with 2 of the Lynds photographers and let me just say, being an amateur photographer myself, I have taken more "creative" shots than both of them. Do yourself a favor and invest in something that will last a lifetime, quality, creative photography on the day of our wedding other wise you will regret it, I almost did! I look back on my engagement photos and regret choosing Lynds in the beginning. :( I wouldn't reccomend Lynds to anyone no matter how little they could budget for a photographer, I spent 5k on my entire wedding and I wish I could have afforded to budget more on my wedding photgraphy!! I was fortunate enough to have great pictures captured by a family friend, that right I chose a family friend to photograph my wedding over Lynds and LOVE all my photos!!!

I must edit my review and remove any points given for professionalism since Lynds is so quick to post any of their client's pictures the moment anyone gives their honest opinion about the company. But I do want to thank Lynds for attaching a link so you can see the horrible poses and lighting of his so called "photographer"

Vendor response to review

I am very sorry you feel the way you do, Jennifer. Looking at both sessions, I would say that our photographers did an outstanding job. In fact, should anyone want to decide for themselves, here is a link to some of the images: http://blog.lyndsphoto.com/slideshows/8445

Since you chose to publically make negative comments, Jennifer, it is only fair that people be able to judge the photos for themselves. I don't think these photos are "horrible" by any means. We care about our clients, so if you'd like to discuss this further, feel free to contact me at any time.
