Randall de Leon Photography 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves South Gate, CA

Photography has always been a lifelong passion of mine, I picked up my first camera as a gift from my dad when I was 14 years old. Never in a million years would I have thought that my lifelong hobby could eventually become my career. I focused on my future, working my way through college and grad school to achieve my license to practice, but a part of me realized that I wanted to pursue a career that allowed me to go on adventures and meet a lot of new people. So in 2019, I took that risk, changed my hours from full time to part time and put more focus on my photography. I booked my first gig later that year and have never looked back.

We’ve been lucky to know and work with Randall for a few years. When we finally decided to make things “official” we knew we wanted someone that does great work, that we trust, and would make us feel comfortable. We wanted our day to feel like a relaxed family event and Randall helped with that and so much more. He suggested possible locations that would meet our dream event and times to maximize the best lighting for the area. Once we settled on the location and date, he maintained excellent communication in preparation to the event to properly flesh out the day’s timetable, day of logistics, and post. On the day of our wedding he expertly directed us and our families, using the natural lighting to capture the perfect shots. We would have been lost without him, especially since no one knew how to assist with bustling my dress. During our dinner reception he seamlessly directed restaurant staff to assist in transitioning between meals/dessert/toast for more amazing shots. After the wedding he kept us updated on next steps for our pictures. Randall is truly a gem and I would recommend him to anyone looking for someone special to capture their day.

In addition to documenting celebrations in the United States, our team has filmed worldwide. Countries we have traveled to include Thailand, Turkey, Mauritius, India, Kazakhstan, China, Russia, Dubai, Great Britain, and so many more.

Awarded Best of Zola
Aladdin films will make a lasting impression on you. They were referred to me by my mother's friend, and the way she described their approach to the shooting and customer service was just wow. My experience was no different, even better I would say. The first thing we noticed was that both photographer and videographer arrived earlier, so they would get enough footage for getting ready photos. The photographer was very professional, he would always point out if we posed in the wrong way, and there was no awkwardness when he took pictures of us. He would always lead us to where the best location to shoot, and which pose is the best. If I had ideas for a picture I would like to have, he would understand me and take the exact picture I wanted! The Videographer was very creative, he used wireless microphones to capture our voices when we were reading our letters to each other prior to the ceremony, and our wows during the ceremony. In the final video, we could hear our voices so clearly, as if we were recorded in a studio. Both of them decided to capture our wedding day as it was, we weren't bothered with extra posing that we did not need, and everything went flawlessly. And the end result was … I can’t express it other than IDEAL. We watched the video with our best man and maid of honor, we were all speechless! Aladdin Films filmed and edited our video in a way that I felt the whole spectrum of emotions that I felt that day. It’s unbelievable. The only advice I want to give to couples that are thinking of ordering their service is to reach out to them ASAP since your date may not be available anymore. We recommended them to my sister and 4 other friends and siblings that will marry this year and the next year. We’re looking forward to meeting you at my sister’s wedding!

Mirage and Light Photography 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,600
  • Serves South Gate, CA

Photography is my creative dream come true and it is so incredibly special to be able to capture memories that other people will love and cherish for many, many years. Around high school, I found out for myself how important these memories were. Not just the ones I was creating currently but the ones that I couldn’t get back. I would look back on these photos and think, "I remember how happy I was that day." "Aww, my little brother was so tiny then!" Or even, "What was I thinking when I wore that outfit??" These little snippets of time carried such a significance for me that I wanted other people to feel that way about their memories, too.

We booked Amanda for our engagement photos and our elopement. One of the reasons we loved our sessions is Amanda’s approach. She will definitely tell you exactly what to do and find ways of making the photos feel natural and fun. On our wedding day, she was great at directing the family, making sure I got all the shots I wanted, and even fluffing my dress to ensure it looked beautiful in the photos. She found the perfect balance of directing people and being efficient during the process. Our elopement was 100 degrees outside and Amanda was so kind and thoughtful about giving me photo breaks and cold water. Our photos turned out gorgeous and we could not be happier. We call Amanda our “family photographer” and plan to use her for all special events in the future. If you hire Amanda- rest well knowing your event will be handled with care and your photos will be gorgeous!

The reasons people choose us over our competitors are: 1) Our communication is the best in the industry 2) No hidden fees, no travel rates(if booked before 2025), the quote you receive is the total amount. 3) We offer a very flexible payment plan, where you choose the dates you wish to pay on! We serve clients across California and throughout the entire U.S. 😁

Honestly Jose saved our lives! Previously to hiring him and his team, my wife and I had gotten scammed by a photographer. I was scared and of course super stressed about finding a new photographer I could trust and I could rely on. From the beginning the communication with Jose was amazing and this is so important with any wedding vendor. He captured our wedding so beautifully and that’s all we really want when hiring a wedding photographer. He even sent sneak peeks like two days after the wedding! And our pictures were ready so fast! I highly recommend New Ending Productions for your wedding and all your photography needs.

I would have rated it 5 stars just on the quality from the day, but as you can see the after product was phenomenal. They did both photography and videography and the wedding highlight video was absolutely beautiful. My father in law said watching it makes him feel like he's right there back on that day, and I feel the same way.
