Albert was exceptional!! Definitely gives you more bang for your freaking buck to say the least! This man was an absolute joy to work with! He arrived promptly and even left an hour later at no charge just because he was enjoying our wedding reception so much! He stayed for 10+ hours taking photos and we are MORE THAN HAPPY with the results he got for us! Our wedding day went by in the blink of an eye but Albert was able to capture our memories that will last us a lifetime. We can't be more thankful or appreciative of him and all of his hard work he did for us. He even came riding on his motorbike which gave him the ability to take awesome pictures of us to/from the wedding and reception in the incredible car we had rented for that day! He is very professional and just overall a great guy to work with. Our guests loved him and how he took everyone's photos and got all of these amazing candid shots as well! Like I said, memories that will last us a lifetime and it was all thanks to Albert. Thank you so much again!!!!!!! More...

Denoise did a great job on a number of work projects for me and my team. It was my first time requesting video editing and they were great at walking me through the process, offering recommendations, and flexible in making adjustments as project requirements changed along the way. I highly recommend them!

I've been using DeNoise for editing our music TV series for these past 2+ years now, and overall, I'm happy with the results. They've completed about 18 projects and as long as some of their more musically equipped editing staff make the important structural calls, the editing progresses to a final product we can finally live with. Angela is great and if you are lucky enough to have her involved with your project, I'm certain you'll be happy. More...

Hired DeNoise for a headshot. The shoot was quick and easy. Albert is very pleasant and made smiling easy and fun. I was given 10 pictures by email and I chose one that was my favorite to be touched up. The touched up image was done quickly and was exactly what I was looking for in a headshot. The price was also very reasonable for the quality of work and within my budget. Thanks again, Albert. More...

What’s the secret to taking a great photograph?
My hundreds or reviews here:
https://www.thumbtack.com/ca/berkeley/video-production/multimedia-specialist
What questions might you ask a client when starting a new project?
whatever audio, video or photo project:
Is it about documenting an event (based on time and location)
or a full production (about a person, a business, a product, a brand, a story, a place)
Where: at our studio in Berkeley or on location?
How many hours there?
links to similar samples
A good description of the project
What do you love most about your job?
Every day I meet new people, at a new place for a new project, video, photo, audio, personal, commercial, sport, political, academic, religious, artistic etc.
What inspired you to start your own business?
How did you get started doing this type of work?
I am a musician, I write, compose, and play guitar, mostly bossanova and classical music. Since the 80's I got interested in digital recording and editing, I then expanded to the video and photo world because in the digital world the tools are pretty similar, like equalizing a sound track or color correcting some videos or photos. I grew up in France, I spent a few years in Israel, Morocco, and in the US since 1998. I know well different cultures and languages, it helped me develop a good artistic approach.
Why should our clients choose you?
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
Look at the price but look also at
- the experience
- how many projects were completed
- how many times they were hired
- how many good reviews
- home studio or real studio
- insured or not
- good terms or not
- compare equipment specs
- check samples
- have a real conversation (meet or phone)
- editing iterations
- final delivery and turnaround
- back ups
and more

I can play solo, or with a sax/clarinet, bass, and drums
