There really are no words to describe the absolute magic that the Eichars captured for us during our engagement, wedding, and maternity shoots. The bond we’ve built is the best part - it didn’t feel like we had a client/vendor relationship, but a deep meaningful friendship. Lauren is such a gem; she is like a warm hug that just makes you feel so comfortable no matter the setting. She listens and brings what you envision beautifully into reality. Hands down the best decision we made to go with the Eichars and if I could, I’d have them for every future photo session. No exaggeration. The pictures are stunning and timeless - the quality of the work speaks for itself in every sense. We can’t recommend them enough!!!

Lauren and Jamie Eichar are amazing professionals and humans to work with! They shot photo and video for our non-traditional two-day Indian wedding celebrations, and we couldn’t have made a better choice. We chose them because they somehow manage to strike the right balance of documentation and artistry for every client, and we were no exception. We absolutely love all the photos and videos they captured, true to their advertised styles and past work. One priority for us was capturing a lot of great guest photos (one of the best gifts you can give your guests, we think), and the Eichar team absolutely delivered!

We customized the Eichar “weekend package” to the right number of hours and shooters (1-2 for photo, 1-2 for video) for each event. We also did a couple photoshoot with Lauren (at the beach - she knows good spots!) before the wedding events, which was really helpful for getting used to posing and being comfortable in front of the camera. We also want to shout out Jamie for working out and adapting the best sound capture setups for our very widely varying performances — from a cappella to acoustic guitar to big group dances to DJ music. They were very patient with us during moments of stress, and balanced the “hey, let’s step away to shoot a little” well with letting us enjoy our celebrations. They are familiar with many Bay Area venues and can handle all kinds of weird lighting situations (in our case, dappled redwood forest lighting). They’ve also covered many Indian weddings in the past, and we and our families appreciated how culturally-aware and generally thoughtful they were throughout. Definitely recommend!

Lauren photographed my wife and I's wedding ceremony and we couldn't have been more thrilled with our experience and the photographs. She expertly helped us navigate San Francisco City Hall on a lovely morning and really helped us make the most of a day we definitely won't forget. She was great with directing us, helping us feel comfortable (since being photographed for hours can be tiring), and making sure we got the perfect shot. We had a ton of fun and the entire experience just felt so easy. Lauren is awesome and we recommend her for anyone in the Bay Area. Thank you again, Lauren!

Lauren and her talent, expert knowledge, patience, and positive energy made our big day the most stress free part of the ceremony planning. Throughout the entire process Lauren was super responsive, which allowed me to turn off my bride-brain. After we had reached out for her availability, we met virtually and kept an open line of communication. Two days before tour ceremony, she checked in with us to form a more detailed gameplan. Her knowledge of San Francisco City Hall made our experience seamless as I underestimated the strategy it took to get the perfect shot with regard to location, lighting, and crowd traffic. Additionally, I appreciate how accommodating Lauren was as we got to City Hall 30 minutes early to get shots in before our ceremony. We were able to maximize our time and utilize her talent in capturing our personalities. Thank you, Lauren! I could not have trusted anyone else to memorialize our marriage.

Hiring Lauren and Jamie as our photographer/videographer duo was easily the best decision we made for our wedding. Lauren and Jamie were incredibly responsive, kind, transparent, and communicative throughout the wedding planning process.

My now husband and I are very camera shy, and Lauren and Jamie guided us in making sure we were comfortable in front of the camera on our wedding day. When we got the pictures and videos back, we were floored -- Lauren is an expert of capturing all of the candid, emotional, and beautiful moments of the day, and Jamie's videography made us feel like we were in a Hollywood movie! We are so excited to share these incredible memories with our future family through Lauren and Jamie's beautiful work. Thank you Lauren and Jamie!
