Indigo West Photographer | Reviews

If you are looking for a photographer in San Diego, look no further than Daniel. We first worked with him for our engagement photos and knew immediately we had to book him for our wedding. Daniel is incredibly friendly and professional, but what we loved most was his eye for candid moments. He captured the true essence of our day and all the little things that made it special. We are completely in love with our photos! One of the highlights was his film photography option—the care package he sent with the negatives, prints, and a handwritten card was such a beautiful, personal touch. It’s clear he truly cares about his clients. Working with him was an amazing experience from start to finish, and being able to book our videographer through him made the entire process seamless. If you are in the Southern California area, you will not be disappointed! Thank you so much, Daniel, for giving us memories that we will cherish for a lifetime.

Simone was an incredible photographer to work with for both our engagement session and our wedding day. We had read many great reviews about Indigo West, but it was Simone’s portfolio that truly stood out to us and spoke to his talent and artistic eye.
From our initial consultation, we knew Simone was the right fit to capture our wedding. Our wedding was an intimate celebration of about 75 guests set in a botanic garden. Simone immediately understood the vibe we were going for and made us feel comfortable and confident moving forward. He is easy to talk to, kind, and genuinely funny, which helped my wife and me (both introverts) feel relaxed in front of the camera.
On the wedding day, Simone was calm, organized, and incredibly thoughtful. He did an amazing job directing friends, family, and even children during photos while keeping everything feeling natural and unforced. He was also very mindful of our timeline and managed to capture incredible shots even in the in-between moments throughout the day.
One of our favorite things about Simone’s work is how intentionally he captures the true essence of the day. He beautifully documented emotional moments during the ceremony and recessional, which ended up being some of our absolute favorite photos. We also loved how he incorporated the scenery of our venue—especially the artistic couple portraits using the garden’s natural water features. Those images are stunning and feel so unique.
Our engagement photos completely wowed us, and Simone delivered sneak peeks from our wedding within the same weekend, which we were thrilled about. The sneak peek included highlights from all aspects of the day and made the wait for the full gallery even more exciting. When we received the complete collection, it truly felt like we were reliving our wedding day all over again. The photos brought us so much joy.
Simone was also extremely responsive and professional throughout the entire process. He communicated clearly via email and provided a detailed questionnaire well ahead of the wedding to finalize details and our shot list, which made everything feel organized and stress-free.
We would recommend Simone to any couple, especially those who value authenticity. He captures the true vibe of your wedding day without trying to curate something that doesn’t feel genuine. We are so grateful we chose Simone and couldn’t be happier with our experience or our photos.

We had Daniel from Indigo West Photography do our wedding photos, and he did an amazing job from start to finish. We got married at Flora in downtown San Diego, and he captured the venue and the day perfectly. The photos are absolutely beautiful—so aesthetically pleasing, moody, and romantic. He captured incredibly unique shots while also making us feel completely comfortable the entire time. Daniel was great at prompting us, which made everything feel natural and fun.

On the day of the wedding, he was so flexible and calm, even with unexpected rain, which we really appreciated. He delivered our photos within the exact timeframe he promised, and the results exceeded our expectations. In addition to the romantic moments, he also captured really fun, playful, and action-filled photos that truly reflect the energy of the day. He made the whole experience stress-free and enjoyable. We couldn’t recommend Daniel and Indigo West Photography more!

We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better wedding photographer.
From the very first conversation, Daniel made us feel completely at ease. On the wedding day, his presence was calm, thoughtful, and reassuring. Exactly what you want when emotions are high and things are moving fast. Daniele captured the big moments beautifully, but what really blew us away were the in-between moments: the quiet glances, the laughter, the emotion we didn’t even realize was happening.
The photos feel natural, timeless, and so us!!!

If you’re looking for someone who will document your wedding with heart, artistry, and attention to detail, we cannot recommend Daniel enough.

Simone from Indigo West was the perfect photographer for our wedding.  We first heard about Indigo West from our venue, and Simone had experience taking pictures at the venue for other weddings.  From the initial consultation we knew that we were in excellent hands.  Simone was warm, kind, and funny; we felt absolutely at ease having pictures taken of us throughout our wedding. His style also matched our venue beautifully and he made sure to highlight a lot of the features of the venue while also capturing beautiful moments throughout the day.

Throughout the planning process Simone was easy to talk to; he was receptive to any ideas we had around particular moments we wanted captured and we shared our Pinterest board with him for additional inspiration.  He also provided us with a comprehensive questionnaire before the wedding so we could finalize our shot list and we had a meeting a few weeks before the wedding to finalize additional details.  On the day of the wedding he seamlessly captured moments throughout the day, so much so that we did not even notice him capturing them.  It was also an excellent mix of candid and stylized.  We just recently got the full collection and we were so moved by all of the pictures, because it really captured the emotions, movement, and energy throughout the day.  We really are so grateful and lucky to have had him as our photographer on such a special day.
