Ken did a wonderful job photographing our ceremony and taking photos with us afterwards. Our license appointment ended up taking forever, but Ken waited and took photos with us all the way up until city hall closing. He taught us some poses, had great knowledge of the building, and was very patient with our attending family members. More...

This was definitely an experience of a lifetime!! Ken was not only our photographer but we he was also our wedding coordinator! ! My wife and I had NO idea of what all City Hall had to offer. Here comes Kens knowledge of City Hall, every floor, every hallway, every staircase was his canvas, and he utilized almost every space in City Hall and painted another remarkable master piece with his photography. Shev and I had soo much fun. It felt like we knew him for years!! Ken was definitely Accessible, and adjusted quickly to what we wanted and made it all work so well together!! Thank You Mr. Mendoza!! 🙏🏽🔥 More...

Ken is an amazing photographer and a wholesome person all around! Ken was exceptionally patient and flexible from the first call to the photo shoot and the delivery of the pictures afterwards. He’s vert friendly and has a calm manner that puts everyone at ease. He’s an award winning photographer who knows how to bring the best out of everyone and every situation. We had two different sessions with him about a year apart and the pictures were simply stunning. The day went by so fast but it was full of laughter and memories that we will cherish for the rest of our lives. Thanks to Ken we’ll also have amazing pictures and stories to remember and share. I highly recommend him! More...

Ken did an amazing job and worked with our limited timeframe and budget. He provided a lot of helpful information before the shoot and we loved our photos! He worked his magic to avoid getting other people in the photos which is not at easy as it may seem. His prices were also very affordable compared to other quotes we received. 100% recommend. Thanks!

Ken is your City Hall Wedding Photographer. When you work with Ken, not only are you getting the best City Hall Wedding Photographer, but you are also getting someone who shares with you What to Expect at your City Hall Wedding. All the insight the Ken shared was beneficial; the day of my wedding I did not feel rushed/stressed as I knew what to expect. It was an added plus, when your Deputy Marriage Commissioner knows Ken and shares that you are in good hands and your pictures will turn out amazing, and yes, they did! Working with Ken was exceptional, he has your best interest at hand, he listens, and is a genius with the camera. My wedding pictures are beautiful and I am completely satisfied—I would definitely work with Ken again and highly recommend him. More...

Ken was such a lovely city hall photographer to work with! He came on relatively short notice and was so great with being speedy and smooth with the setup wherever we went in and around city hall. Honestly, his guidance on even how to run the short civil ceremony and how to get lovely shots right after made the day way more special than we thought the day would be. He was so kind and patient with us and SO expert— was so nice and easy to true him to direct us. He went above and beyond to get lovely photos of us, and I 100% recommend him for a city hall wedding!

Ken is PHENOMENAL!!! We originally had a call set up with another City Hall photographer, but she didn't even show up to the meeting, so I frantically googled "city hall photographers" and found Ken. Ken immediately answered the phone. He's a great communicator and knew the exact spots at City Hall. We received the sneak peek photos so far and they look amazing! I'd highly recommend Ken for Wedding Photography! More...

Ken is an amazing photographer who is deeply familiar with city hall. He went above and beyond for my wedding; the shots were beautiful and skillfully-directed. The lighting and the angle of his shots are just so stunning that I can't stop looking at the pictures over and over! I am so glad that of all the photographers I could've gone with, Ken was the one who ended up photographing my wedding. If I ever have a second wedding (though let's hope that never happens) I would hands down choose Ken as the photographer again. More...

We booked a 2hr session with Ken as our City Hall Wedding Photography and we couldn't be any happier with the experience and results of the photos. 1. It was 9:30am appointment and we were worried about the overall energy and mood. Ken changed that for us, he brought great energy, joy and fun into the experience. We had so much fun learning new poses, and it was actually the highlight of our day bringing so much more to just a ceremony. 2. It is clear that Ken is knowledgable and passionate about San Francisco City Hall, along with all its hidden gems. We were drawn to how Ken brings the building to life, amplifying its beauty. He managed to make us stand out while still making the building look grand. Photos came out elegant, sophisticated and natural. 3. Ken is also very responsive and great communication. This is really important when you're in the middle of wedding anxiety. 4. Ken also made sure I had all my requests met, I shared all my needs with him and Ken made sure nothing was missed with all my desired asks and locations. This is also really important. I highly recommend you book Ken for your San Francisco City Hall Wedding day based on his overall quality, talent, rigor, communication and results. + definitely +2hrs, we wished we had an extra hour.

Having Ken as our photographer was the best decision we could've ever made! Ken was such a pleasure to work with and made things funs and easy for us and the family. . He's also a beast in photography! He knows how to work his magic, from suit adjustments, dress positions, lighting, poses, angles, etc. We knew our photos would turn out incredible, but our jaws were to the floor when we received them. He exceeded our expectations immensely! We feel fortunate and grateful to have Ken present on our special day and we wouldn't have it any other way! More...

We are so grateful for having Ken Mendoza to be our city hall wedding photographer. After I browsed his work online, I immediately fell in love and reached out to him. It turned out to be a great decision, and the photos he delivered are just as good as his portfolio! The communication with Ken with super smooth. He was always very responsive to our questions. On the day he arrived early, and coordinated the different groups of people well. He was familiar with the San Francisco City Hall, and he knows where to go for photos, even on a busy day. When we were there, the whole city hall was SUPER busy and crowded, but Ken was still able to take us around and he got many great shots of just the two of us, with the beautiful mayor's balcony, windows, etc. He was creative in composing the pictures, and the photos we got were so unique and precious!

Ken is amazing!!!!!! He was our San Francisco City Hall Wedding Photographer. He took beautiful photos and edited and sent them back to us within 4 weeks of our wedding (so fast! ). He was very responsive over email & on the phone, and helped us figure out which photos we should focus on. Ken took care of everything! We didn't think about photos at all until the last minute, but Ken just took care of everything. What a life saver. He also helped us figure out the schedule of events (he knew how long each group photo would take, etc).We only had the city hall booked for 2 hrs (9am-11am on a Saturday), and we did our rehearsal for the first time from 9am-10am, before the real ceremony at 10am-11am. :) In addition to taking great photos during the whole rehearsal & ceremony, Ken also gave tons of advice to the bridesmaids and groomsmen on how to pose, stand, walk, hold our hands, etc. He made the ceremony and rehearsal go way more smoothly too! We didn't have a wedding planner, and Ken took on some of that role on the day-of, unasked. He was very polite about his suggestions too, he didn't impose. We were very happy to have his advice, since he was so experienced with weddings. We had planned to spend most of our post-ceremony time doing group photos, but somehow Ken took all the group photos very quickly (and the photos turned out great!) and also suggested that we do a quick couples (just bride & groom) shoots all over the city hall. We didn't even think we'd have time for that, and we're so happy Ken suggested we do it.I would definitely recommend Ken for any wedding, especially in the city hall. He knows the place so well - he knows where all the best spots are for photographs, and he really understands the lighting.Very very happy with the photos he took :). More...
