Justin Kunimoto Photography

Absolutely loved working with Justin as our photographer. When I started the process in finding our photographer, I was most concerned with who my now husband would best connect with. My husband is a man who doesn't like taking pictures and depending on the social environment, he isn't the best sociable. With Justin though, this was not the case. After the first consultation, seeing how he interacted and how free-flowing all of our conversations were, I knew there would be no awkward moments for the big day. Having Justin there by our side felt like having a friend there capturing precious moments throughout our big day to keep them memorable. He is thorough in getting the photos you want, and helps keep you to your schedule. If you love golden-hour photos, Justin is your man. He will wake up at 5AM with you to get those early sunrise shots without the crowds! Bonus points- getting Moo-Deng an honorary mention in the photo album.

My husband and I agree - Justin was the best choice of our wedding! On our wedding day, Justin was more than just a photographer. He was a calming presence, helping to fix multiple! broken dresses, and pinning on flowers when no one could figure them out, and so much more! He went above and beyond, and not just with how amazing our photos are. He shot everywhere from within a hotel, church, to our reception - and every photo is as beautiful. More importantly - Justin has the unique ability to capture the feeling of a moment with his photos. He did exactly what we wanted which was to capture amazing photos of our day - without us feeling like we are spending our day on photos or posing. We are so lucky to get the relive our day and engagement photoshoot through his photos! Bonus: My mom raved about Justin all night and continues to rave about him.

I’ve been putting off writing this review for months because Justin was so incredible that I wanted to make sure my words did him justice—that alone should tell you how amazing he is! He was the first vendor we booked, right after securing our venue—nearly two years before our wedding. We knew we wanted to lock him in early, and it was one of the best decisions we made. From our first meeting at a local coffee shop, we immediately felt at ease with him. He is incredibly knowledgeable about photography and the wedding industry, and his fun, goofy personality made the whole experience even better. A year before our wedding, we did an engagement session with him, and the photos were nothing short of magical—straight out of a fairy tale. On our wedding day, he arrived early and captured everything perfectly: the candid moments, the formal shots, and all the little details we worked so hard to curate. We felt so comfortable with him throughout the day. He managed to be both super chill and incredibly efficient, especially when it came to getting through the formal photo list. Oh, and did I mention he has the most killer dance moves I’ve ever seen? Justin is truly one-of-a-kind, and we couldn't have asked for a better photographer to capture our day!

Justin was the first vendor that we booked for our wedding- before the venue, before anything else and it was probably the best decision that I made in the entirety of our wedding planning. Justin was such a pleasure to work with from the start and went above and beyond to make sure that my partner and I were comfortable in the run-up to the wedding and on our wedding day which is saying a lot, because my partner hates taking/being in pictures. On the wedding day, Justin was even more incredible than I could have imagined. He made us both feel at ease the entire wedding, making us laugh and seamlessly capturing amazing pictures along the way. All night and since the wedding, we've had family and friends tell us how incredible Justin was- his easygoing, friendly demeanor made an already really special day even better and we are so grateful to have him as our photographer. The pictures he captured are stunning no surprise given the work we'd seen of his before but I was blown away by the candid moments he was able to capture that we will cherish forever. Again- I can't recommend Justin highly enough and will forever be grateful for both the way he was able to capture the best moments of such an important day and for him being such a wonderful person.

My fiancée and I had the absolute best experience with Justin as our engagement photographer! He made the entire process so fun and memorable, despite having to be outside in the July heat for hours! Thanks to Justin’s creativity and attention to detail, we have the most stunning photos that perfectly captured our love and excitement in the moment. We can’t stop looking at the pictures—they will certainly be cherished forever. If you’re looking for a photographer who is not only incredibly talented but also a joy to work with, look no further! Highly recommend!!

Justin was absolutely incredible!! He was able to impeccably capture the beauty and joy of the day. A lot of photographers we considered had beautiful photos, but the reason we went with Justin was because you could feel the joy come through the photos and it paid off! Justin sent us the high quality, well edited photos faster than I have ever heard any wedding photographer get pictures to the bride and groom and he made it very easy for us to share those pictures with family and friends. Not only did Justin deliver beautiful photos that captured the mood of the day, but he went above and beyond his photographer duties. When all of the bridal party was racing around with wet fingernails, Justin stepped in to help button the many buttons on my dress. When we were running late to get to the ceremony, Justin called the front desk at the venue to make sure our ride was waiting for us to get to the ceremony ASAP. I cannot recommend Justin enough!!!

Justin was an amazing photographer. When we first reached out to him he took the time to answer all of our questions and really get to know us before we started to work together. Two weeks before our ceremony, he came to our venue and discussed the ideal location for pictures. He was accommodating with finding the right spots for the photos and ideas on how to make the ceremony special. We’ve joked that we didn't remember seeing him during our pre-wedding events and ceremony, but he managed to get so many images and candid photos from all angles and all of the pictures he took came out amazing. He had a very quick turn around on the final album after the wedding and we now have so many wonderful pictures to remember our day. We would highly recommend Justin to anyone looking for a quality photographer who will go the extra mile.

I don’t even know where/how to begin… Justin‘s undeniable talent truly speaks for itself. Beyond that, he is also professional, kind, organized, the perfect hype person, communicative, funny… the list goes on and on. We feel so lucky to have found Justin as our engagement photos and wedding photos and wedding day itself wouldn’t have been the same without him! Cannot thank you enough for everything, Justin! You are the absolute best!!!

From the moment we first chatted with Justin, we knew we were in capable hands. His professionalism, creativity, and passion for capturing special moments were evident throughout the entire process. Prior to our wedding day, Justin came to a walk-through at our venue and made us feel super comfortable before we even started taking photos. On our wedding day, Justin was more than just a photographer; he was a calming presence and a supportive friend. We did a small ceremony with just the two of us, our officiant and Justin - and he was the perfect addition to our day. He captured all of the details and moments that truly reflected the joy and love we felt. We aren’t exactly models so we weren’t sure how we’d do in front of the camera. Justin went above and beyond making us feel comfortable and genuinely have fun taking our pictures. From emotional to lighthearted, the photos we received exceeded our highest expectations. He managed to encapsulate our day in a way that we will cherish forever. He played an integral role in making our wedding day unforgettable. We cannot recommend him highly enough to any couple looking for an exceptional photographer who also happens to be a super cool and genuine person. Thank you, Justin, for making our day come to life in the most beautiful way possible. Your work is a gift we will treasure always.

Justin is absolutely AMAZING at what he does. My fiancé and I can’t recommend him enough! His communication and planning is 10/10. We let him know the locations we wanted to shoot at and met him day of the shoot - he jumped right into guiding us through the session we had no idea what we were doing, but Justin made us feel so comfortable. We laughed through the entire shoot! Justin is very personable and friendly. Justin sent previews of some photos the SAME day we did the shoot. We were in love with the previews! Shortly after, we got our full portfolio - to say we are obsessed is an understatement. All of the photos are beautiful, and Justin perfectly captured us. If you’re looking for a photographer who makes you feel comfortable, is great at communicating, and delivers stunning photos - look no further than Justin.
