Joanna Sent on 06/14/2024Our One and Only :)
The Beginning - My husband and I are from New York and we decided to have our wedding in San Clemente, California. Even though we had no experience in wedding planning, we knew one thing for sure is that we needed the best photographer and videographer to capture the moment. We stumbled upon One and Only Production's Instagram page and were immediately captivated by their work. Their photos and videos were dreamy, magical, and timeless.
The Middle - We booked One and Only Production a year before our wedding. They provided us with helpful resources such as a Wedding Guide they created that was filled with invaluable tips. Throughout the year, I frequently texted Janice for recommendations, and she always responded with warmth and open arms. She even recommended our makeup artist and DJ, who were also amazing.
The Day - When we flew to California, we informed Janice and Edwin about our rehearsal the day before the wedding. They took the time to meet us and check out the venue. It was drizzling that day and Janice + Edwin even used their umbrella to shield us. This thoughtful gesture highlights their incredible attention to detail and made me feel extra special. Our wedding party also bonded with them effortlessly and already missing their presence.
The pictures and videos turned out perfect, capturing the essence of our wedding day. Feels like we are reliving our wedding all over again. The turnaround time for the photos and videos was so quick. One and Only Production truly made our wedding day unforgettable. It doesn’t feel like we hired a vendor; it feels like we gained new friends.
Thank you Janice and Edwin, for being a part of our special day and for your talent and kindness. You’re truly our One and Only! ❤️ -

Jackie C. Sent on 05/21/2024Beautiful memories!
Janice & Edwin did an absolutely amazing job helping us capture the memories from our big day, and we are so grateful to them! Out of all our vendors, we probably spent the most time looking for our photo & video team because we know that the photos and videos of our big day would be the only things we would take with us. We were very decided on a light and airy style for our garden wedding, and most of the other photo/video teams we viewed did not have consistency in their style. But, as soon as we saw Janice and Edwin's work, we knew it was the right one for us! They were very friendly and immediately sent us a very clear pricing sheet — which was affordable — and helped us set up a free consultation. It was such a pleasure to get to know them; they were very kind and funny, and professional and organized as well.
On the day of our engagement shoot, it was pretty cloudy, and we were worried that the photos would not turn out well because of the low light. But, it was hard to worry during the shoot itself, since Janice and Edwin were so fun to be with. We have always felt a little awkward in front of cameras, but they helped us feel like naturals! They gave us just the right amount of direction to make us feel comfortable — like we knew what we were doing — but without feeling too scripted and staged. They got the photos back to us super fast and they all looked amazing: exactly in the light and airy style we wanted! We knew that we were in excellent hands, and no matter what the lighting looked like on our wedding day, we had nothing to worry about because Janice and Edwin would deliver amazing photos and videos.
On our wedding day, everything was super smooth, and Janice, Edwin, and their second shooters captured every single moment without us feeling stalked. It really felt like we just had another group of friends hanging out with us during our wedding. They worked super fast too, and had our full photo gallery and video done in about a month. We are so grateful to Janice, Edwin, and their entire team for all their help, and for the huge role they played in helping us capture these priceless memories that will be with us for the rest of our lives. -

Janice captured our civil ceremony day flawlessly. We were attracted to One & Only Productions specifically because of how gorgeous the lighting and exposition were from past clients. It was an easy, light, and efficient experience with Janice. Would highly recommend to any couple or individual wanting beautiful, radiant, and ethereal photos! -

Talented and Thoughtful Duo
Among the dozens if not hundreds of decisions we made on vendors for our wedding day, I cannot think of one that I’m happier about. We worked with Janice and Edwin for both photo and video for our wedding and boy did they deliver. I’d recommend them both ten times over to anyone asking for referrals, then once again to anyone not asking! We worked with Janice and Edwin over a Saturday-Sunday wedding and by the end of the weekend it truly felt like they were longtime friends.
Janice was our photographer. She was always in the right place at the right time, and this wasn’t a coincidence. The prep work Janice did to capture the perfect shot included: reviewing details of our timeline, arriving at our venue the day before to scout out the best angles and where the sun would be, and watching a video of our first dance to capture the most dramatic moments. Truthfully I don’t have much experience as a photographer, so I’m sure the list of what she did to prep is much longer.
Edwin was our videographer for the weekend, but he had so many jobs beyond that. In addition to capturing the heartwarming and exciting moments on camera, Edwin helped stage scenes with our dogs, our little nephews and nieces, and our parents. There are two great examples I’ll always remember with Edwin: 1) When trying to pose our younger audience for photos, Edwin would play with Janice’s hair to get smiles and laughter for the camera, and 2) Edwin noticed one of our nephews was really focused on getting good cell phone recordings and pictures, and spent a moment teaching him how to use the professional camera! Not many photographers would trust an 11 year old with their gear!
Their work speaks for itself! My husband and I were expecting to feel uncomfortable being photographed and the center of attention, but they were great at positioning us to capture our natural selves beautifully. They also frame pictures really well to showcase the event space, so much so that our venues already posted Janice's pictures from our wedding to feature on their marketing materials.
Simply put, Janice and Edwin were amazing for so many reasons. They delivered sneak peeks within 24 hours. They intentionally released event albums as they finished editing them day by day so we could truly savor each of them and relive the moment. Such an amazing, thoughtful, and talented couple to work with! -

Bright, beautiful, natural!
From start to finish, Janice and Edwin are so amazing to work with. First of all, they are very communicative and always get back to you quickly about any questions or concerns you have. They also provide a wedding guide with some tips for capturing your day that really helped me get a sense of what photos to make sure we get. On the day of, they really do their best to make you relax and feel comfortable. They direct well for posed photos, but are also good at blending in for candids. They seemed to pop out of nowhere at a moment's notice when relatives demanded group photos 😆. I was also super impressed by how they interact with kids (my 1.5 year old niece) to get their attention for photos. Lastly, they are so quick about getting photos back to you and giving you updates on their progress. I got my sneak peek the next day, and the rest of my photos within 2 weeks. 2 weeks!!!
If you're going for bright and airy (but not blown out), they're your team! All the colors on my previews pop, while still giving a natural feeling. I can't recommend One and Only Productions enough. -

Janice and Edwin were amazing and captured our wedding day in the most perfect way! They were so easy to work with. My husband and I put all our trust into them and they didn’t let us down! I am obsessed with our highlight video and cannot wait to share the rest of our videos with our families and friends. It helped us relive such a special day for us. They’re reasonably priced for all the time and effort they put into their work! Definitely recommend booking them for your big day! -

Ariel C. Sent on 02/02/2023Dream team with excellent service!!! Highly recommend!
We hired Janice and Edwin for our wedding photography and videography. They are the dream team! They are very friendly, attentive to details, fast in responding, and I really can't say anything bad about their service! Both my husband and I are very satisfied with the quality of the photos and videos. Janice and Edwin's photos and videos also focus on using natural lightings, which is really nice because the pics and videos all come out very pretty while looking so natural. In terms of service, they also went above and beyond to offer to attend our rehearsal and gifted us with some nice shots from the rehearsal, even they didn't have to! I highly recommend Janice and Edwin and would definitely hire them again! -

Emily L. Sent on 05/20/2022Janice and Edwin are so SWEET! and perfect for your wedding day
I cannot express how appreciative I am of Janice and Edwin lightening up my wedding day. They went above and beyond my expectations, very professional in what they do. They got every moment of my wedding day to be joyful and fun. My husband and I are not naturally born a model haha, but they made us be on our big day!! They made us laugh and went through tiredness. They tried to capture more photos for us, and every single photo is so beautiful and memorable.
They communicate so well on planning and preparing your wedding. They even visit and explore your venue before the wedding to see where would be a great spot to take a photo on. They also provided me with the photo list, so I can edit and add what I would like to capture. They also allow me to send them some photos to refer to, so they can capture the photo as I want.
Another thing I would like to admire is the attitude!! They were full of positive energy. Although my husband and I had a very long, tiring day, they kept trying to make us smile. Also, my guests were very impressed with their skills in drawing attention from the babies and guests! They got distracted sometimes, and it took longer to take a group photo, but Edwin tried to make them focus in a fun way by playing around with Janice's hair, which was so lovely.
On the wedding day, they gave us several photos as a gift printed right away, so we can keep them. That was so sweet.
They gave us some sneak peek photos a couple of days after my wedding day and delivered all photos no later than 2 weeks after my wedding! Very fast!
It was so great to have them on my wedding day to capture special moments. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND One & Only production for your big day!! -

Amazing!!!
Janice and Edwin are an amazing team who clearly love what they do and are really great at it too! They are fun to work with and know how to capture the best shots. We were able to do a couple of engagement photo sessions with them and for our wedding they took our photos and videography. The photos and videos they gave to us were beautiful! My wife and I said after the wedding that it was the best party we’ve ever been too, but that it was all a blur, haha. We watched the video from our big day and they recorded everything in a way where we could relive it all over again. The attention to detail, angles, lighting, sound and added music were all perfect for our wedding video highlight. I would recommend this couple to all my friends and family for any occasion where you’re trying to capture a memory for life. Thank you so much! 🫰🏼 -

We booked Janice and Edwin for their videography service and I would love to say they became one of the best part on our wedding day! They are very professional and worked well with all other vendors. They captured all the happiness moments and went above and beyond for us. Janice was so sweet that she always come up to fix my hair and dress. Edwin was so passionately and make us less worry and stress during the day, they were everywhere and didn't miss a spot for us. We are so surprised how fast their turn around time was and how amazing the wedding videos were! During the pandemic, most of our families and relatives are overseas and not able to join our wedding, thanks to One and Only production so they can also enjoy and share the day with us. All my families and friends watch the videos again and again with happy tears and laughter. We are really glad to have them film our special day. I would highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for wedding photography and videographer services. Thank you for your effort, Janice and Edwin! -

Vanessa Sent on 09/08/2021Hire them immediately! They were the best part of our wedding!
If you don’t read any of my experience with One&Only because it’s too long, the summary is RUN DON’T WALK AND BOOK THEM NOW FOR THE BEST WAY TO CAPTURE YOUR WEDDING DAY! You def. WONT regret hiring a videographer, especially Jancie and Edwin!
WOW, that’s really all we can say. Janice and Edwin simply EXCEEDED our expectations and so much more. They were patient, SUPER skilled at their job, but most importantly wonderful human beings. From the moment we spoke on the phone a few months ago to receiving our documentaries and videos a few weeks later, they were just so so so amazing. We’ve been NONSTOP watching the teaser, highlights, and documentaries. They captured SO much of what we missed during the day and getting to see the different aspects of the wedding a few weeks later was one of the best feelings ever. I assure you that One&Only will do such a fantastic job of helping you capture those behind the scene moments and threading it into a documentary for you to watch post your wedding highs. I was literally laughing, sobbing, and filled with so much love while watching everything they produced.
Their editing and videography style is very elegant and classic – your videos are momentos that will withstand the however many generations and is timeless. I assure you that you’ll be sharing these experiences with your grandchildren in the future because I know that’s our plan!
For more context of why they’re so great… Given we had to reschedule our wedding 6x across 2 different continents, we had wanted to retain some aspects of the Hong Kong wedding we had initially planned. When we explained to them that this was super important to us, they were really accommodating and helped guide our photographer (who has never photographed a tea ceremony before) with such kindness and skills. My dad who spoke no English was thoroughly impressed with their instructions and told me that he thought he were back in HK, which is pretty much the highest compliment a person can receive from him.
In summary (again), their attention to detail, their creativity, their capturing moment skills, and their editing far exceeded our expectations and without a doubt, I know you’d feel the same if you booked with them. All in all, the value of having One&Only be our videographer far exceeded the cost. I am already looking forward to our 5 year vow-renewal so we can work with Edwin and Janice again and cannot recommend them more than enough to all of our friends, family, and couples who are looking for the best video ever captured for their wedding! They’re simply the best and we miss them already! -

Jermaine A. Sent on 07/31/2021Great experience with Janice and Edwin
My husband and I booked Janice and Edwin for their videography service, they were really helpful,and went above and beyond in providing their services. Because of the pandemic, we have postponed our wedding date 3 times, and they are really accommodating throughout the whole process. Janice gave us suggestions when making the wedding timeline. On our wedding day, they were really professional and worked well with my other vendors. Janice even came over to fix my hair and dress on my wedding day. They are really efficient as well, we got all our videos in about 3 weeks from our wedding date! We really appreciate their hard work in documenting the big day for my husband and I. I would highly recommend them to my friends and family!

Professional, quick turn around time. Lovely style
We hired Edwin and Janice for our backyard wedding during the pandemic. They are professional, on time, and very quick turn around time. Also very reasonable pricing. I love their style especially their video editing. We are both very satisfied with their service. They made our video highlight feels like a professional music video. We got our all of our pictures about a week after the wedding and our highlight video about 3 weeks after
The only thing to keep in mind is they only allow you to use licensed music or music that is already in the public domain (aka you can’t use whatever music or song you want). But this is not their fault. They are just respecting the US copyright laws. They also charge extra for the raw footage of the video as well. But i would say their pricing is great and affordable.
Also they will scout out good places to take outdoor pictures around your venue on the big day. They will also let you know if you need to pay the place to take pictures (some park like the rose garden near USC charge you to take wedding pictures) but they will also look for free places as well.
Looking back, i think when choosing your videographer and photographer definitely make sure that you love their unique style and also read reviews about their turn around time.
I made the attached collage myself using the photos from the wedding -

Janice and Edwin are professional and effective photographers. They did a great job capturing the happiest moments and gorgeous faces on film at our wedding and sent us the photos very soon after the wedding. The photos were all amazing. We were also pleased to have them make the slide shows for us. The music and animation worked wonderfully and all my guests enjoyed them. We can definitely tell they are enthusiastic about their jobs and always work for the best performance. We highly recommend this young and fantastic team to be one of your wedding teams.
