    All on Deck exceeded our expectations at every step!

    Allan and his assistant Segun were absolutely wonderful! We first found All on Deck through Instagram when a friend had a surprise engagement photoshoot. When we reached out to Allan, we were planning on having a big wedding and he was very helpful in answering questions. Even though we had decided to go with our initial venue's preferred vendor, Allan was still super considerate in providing tips/advice about our wedding day.

    After a few months, my husband and I completely changed course in opting for a smaller wedding at SF City Hall. We talked with Allan again and had a lot of back and forth while we settled on the new plans, thankfully Allan made sure to follow up with me while things were busy and he was always very supportive. We finally hired All on Deck about 4 months before our wedding date with Allan supporting us with more questions, add-ons, advice, and energy every step of the way! We booked 4.5 hours with AOD for getting ready bridal party pictures, first look, groomsmen pictures at city hall, the ceremony, and couple portraits.

    Come wedding day, Allan and Segun were wonderful from the start! They were very flexible with timing, starting with detail shots while the bridal party finished up getting ready. Allan did a great job guiding us in poses and capturing candid moments, too. Even though it was my first time meeting him, I felt very comfortable with him right away!

    At city hall, the best men and I had a prank on my husband before our first look, which Allan helped out with flawlessly. He captured both the prank and the real first look perfectly. The ceremony shots were breathtaking, and our couple portraits were absolutely incredible. Our wedding was during a heat wave, so by the end of the pictures my husband and I were exhausted and sweaty, but through it all Allan and Segun were SO kind and supportive.

    We left the next day after our wedding for our honeymoon. Two days after the wedding, Allan surprised us with our FULL photo gallery!!!!! It was honestly the BEST surprise while on our honeymoon!! We are still obsessed with our pictures and couldn't be happier with how everything turned out.

    Allan completely exceeded our expectations and we are SOO happy to have had him be a part of our big day! Next time we need a photographer, we will absolutely be booking with Allan again. We highly recommend All on Deck for weddings and any other big milestones! Thank you so much Allan and Segun!

    AOD is the best out there!

    Allan was wonderful to work with for our engagement shoot. He not only found a great spot for us to take photos at, but the photography was above and beyond. Allan was able to capture all the different angles that expressed our personalities. We are looking forward to having AOD as our photographer for our big day!

    When Positive Energies Thrive Together!

    Jonathan and I had the best time working with Allan on our engagement shoot. We were already excited to meet him and his energy and smiles really made us feel comfortable. We vibed so naturally and appreciate all of his guidance, jokes, and his overall vision for our photoshoot. As two people who wouldn't technically consider ourselves "photogenic," Allan kept assuring us how easy we were to capture and our personalities really meshed well! All of the shots he got were beautiful, the quality, the angles, everything was a wonderful experience. We can't wait to work with him on our wedding day and watch his business continue to thrive.

    Light and Dreamy and Beautiful Photos

    It was a lot of fun working with Allan! This mine and my fiancé's first time doing any sort of photoshoot but Allan just knew how to get the best out of us. His instructions were easy to follow, he always asked what we were comfortable doing, and he shared photos with us throughout the session. The end results did not disappoint! Silly shots, serious posses, romantic kisses, and candid strolls, every single photo was just light and dreamy and beautiful.

    10/10 Recommend

    All On Deck Photos was very responsive. Each time we had Q's about wardrobe, cost, locations for the photoshoots, they responded with urgency and were open about everything. They also made us feel very comfortable and light during the shoot, as it was our very first time! We paid for editing to be done in 1-3 days and they stayed true to this. We LOVED our engagement photos so much, we're booking for the wedding! 10/10 recommend

    Fun, friendly and professional

    We had a great experience with All On Deck Photos for our engagement photoshoot. Leading up to our photoshoot, we had multiple phone calls with Allan planning the location, attire, and any questions we had. We felt prepared for our photoshoot. During the photoshoot, Allan and Segun gave posing advice, shared their artistic vision, and showed us the shots taken. Since we are pretty camera shy, Allan and Segun made us feel comfortable and relaxed. The hour went by quickly and we were impressed by the efficiency. A week later, we were surprised with edited photos! We enjoyed working with them for our engagement shoot and are excited to work with them again for our wedding!

    Best Photo Experience Ever!

    Allan and Segun were awesome! We had them take our engagement photos on the beach. They helped us with everything including location, outfits, props, and poses which made the entire experience stress-free. Allan and Segun were so friendly and made us feel comfortable the entire time. The pictures came out so nice and we love them so much!! Would definitely recommend Allan and his team to any couple looking for professional and beautiful photos.

    Amazing pictures

    I would like to express my utmost appreciation for the exceptional teamwork and professionalism demonstrated by Allan and his team. The photographs they captured are truly remarkable and have been widely admired by our friends and family. Allan's guidance and expertise were invaluable in ensuring that every moment was captured perfectly, and even my fiancé, who is usually hesitant about taking pictures, felt comfortable and relaxed throughout the session. We are delighted with the results and highly recommend Allan's services to anyone seeking exceptional photography.

    Wedding Day Photos

    We had the pleasure of working with Allan and his team on our wedding day. From the first initial call with Allan all the way to receiving our pictures, it was an amazing experience! Allan is not only super professional but the nicest human :) He took the time to go over all the small details to make our wedding pictures so seamless. Allan's team was also so friendly and awesome to work with! We can't recommend them enough :)

    Love you guys!

    All On Deck is everything that you've been looking for in a photographer. They have been so accommodating and easy to talk to from consultation up until the moment we got the pictures from them. They also gave us options to make sure that we will stay on our budget but the best out of it. They just went above and beyond with everything we've planned and even those unspoken needs and wants, they just know it all. They act as an organizer as well making sure that we're always on track of our wedding and making sure that we got all the shots that we wanted, and requested. Their light personality made us very comfortable during the shoot and even if we had a little delay on our timeline during the wedding, they helped us made sure that everything will still go on smoothly. Over all, having them as a photographer on our wedding is one of the best decisions we have made for our wedding. Again, thank you Allan, Segun, and Julienne so much for everything, you made our wedding perfect.

    A Fantastic Experience

    Allan and his team were incredibly easy to work with and the photos came out stunning. The communication was top notch and we felt supported during the planning phase. We are looking forward to having AOD at our wedding to capture our special day.

    Highly reccommend

    I highly recommend hiring Allan as your photographer. His attention to detail and enthusiasm to get the best possible shot for you is unmatched. He went above and beyond my needs, and always ensured our comfortability when setting us up and guiding us from shot to shot. You won’t regret choosing Allan.

    The Best Hype Crew

    Allan and his team were AMAZING!! We let him know ahead of time that we were shy and awkward in front of the camera and they were the best hype crew to get us comfortable. The best part? Our civil ceremony was at 9am and they delivered our gallery later that same afternoon!

    Best photography/videography team in the game

    I wish I could convey just how thankful we are to AOD through this review, but no words can cover just how much we appreciate all that they’ve done for us. Allan and his team made sure that from the moment we had our consultation with them, through the complimentary engagement shoot, to coming out to bottle service with us after the rehearsal dinner, and finally to our big day that we were fully taken care of, all concerns were addressed, all questions were answered, every request was fulfilled, and every precious moment was documented. I never expected to feel so comfortable in front of a camera, but AOD made it super easy to pose, be comfortable, and just get the best possible outcomes for our pictures and videos. They were SO accommodating, so kind, and fit in with the celebration so well because they were having fun doing what they do best! I’m giving AOD all our support, all our praise because they truly deserve it, and they deserve your business. You will not regret trusting them with your milestone events, because they will do everything they can to give you the absolute best experience you didn’t even know was possible. Plus, they got us our engagement photos fully edited a DAY after, and our FULL wedding gallery A WEEK after the event. With such great quality, too! Are you kidding me?! Absolutely incredible. What a team.

    Nothing short of amazing.

    Allan and his staff were more than happy to assist in any way possible. The communication was consistent and informative - such a breath of fresh air. Allan and his team were able to help provide posing tips and they made the experience extremely enjoyable.

    Proposal and Photoshoot

    Allan and his team were amazing to work with. We did a surprise proposal followed by a photoshoot. Everything from communication to execution was 5 stars. Allan was always quick to respond in preparation to our shoot. Allan and his team went to the proposal spot early to check if it was crowded and communicated with me the entire morning leading up to the actual proposal. He also met with our families to give them a quick run down of when to come out for the surprise and where to hide.

    During the shoot, him and his team were great at suggesting how to pose and where to pose. For those that are shy in front of a camera, him and his team will do a great job of making you feel comfortable so that the shoot will be seamless.

    Segun was great at giving us instructions during the video shoot and was also a great hype man! Julienne also captured amazing videos of our proposal and delivered it to us quickly so that we were able to post on our socials.

    Him and his team captured a very big moment in our lives that we’ll be able to look back at forever. Would highly recommend working with AOD.

    2 thumbs up 👍👍

    I give AoD 2 thumbs up. I have worked with Allan previously on a commercial project for my business and had such a positive experience I decided to hire him for my big day. Allan and Andre worked together to capture all the special moments on my big day. They blended in with the party and at times I didn’t even notice they were capturing all the spontaneous moments they did 😅 I have to say I love the moments they captured but especially love how considerate they are with family dynamics and we’re able to photograph some family I haven’t been able to get together for years. Thanks again Allan and Andre I have some great photos to look back on to remember this special occasion!

    Excellent!

    Allan and his team work are dedicated to giving the best experience possible! He always scouts the area ahead to make sure he can find the best spots to shoot pictures at, and he’s so good and improvising and making certain photos work! When we worked with him he was very talented at using the environment to our advantage to create amazing pictures! Also the team is very good at directing us, because we weren’t very confident in posing and our pictures came out Amazing! Would definitely recommend Allan and his team for anyone looking to document their special wedding or any life event!

    A Dream Team!

    Allan and the team were such a dream to work with. He put us at ease through the months leading up to the wedding. He made sure that this wasn’t only going to be a business transaction but that we got to know each other and you can tell how effective that was through each photo, that he understood exactly what we were looking for and the story that we wanted to tell. What more can I say, when we received our photos every shot took us back to the very moment of our special day. Professional, personable, and such a fun team to work with! We couldn’t have asked for more!

    A team that will go above & beyond!!

    Hiring this team to capture our wedding day was one of the best decisions we made when it came to wedding planning. Their professionalism and friendliness just shows what an amazing group this is. They make sure they are able to capture your day in the way you visualize it and are able to overcome and adapt to the mishaps that can happen on a wedding day.

    We first met Allan at our engagement shoot and he helped us overcome our camera shyness being the best hype man. He helps with posing and has a vision he is ready to execute. Joren did an amazing job on our wedding highlight video. We are so happy that we have these moments captured for the future.

    Overall, we cannot wait to refer our future engaged friends to work with All on Deck as well as be in contact for our future photography and videography needs. THANK you AOD for being one of the highlights of our wedding day.

    Moments Captured in Time

    Allan and his team were nothing short of amazing. He was very attentive to my wife and I including everyone else at the wedding always asking us if we need anything before leaving us. He helped us in posing for pictures that didn’t feel awkward while still allowing us to be ourselves. We’re thankful to have had Allan and his team capture memories that my wife and I will forever cherish and look back on.
