John Decker was the photographer for my wedding in October, 2013, in San Francisco, and I truly could not be happier with the photos and every aspect of the service. He was originally referred to me by another photographer I had inquired with but who was booked on my date. She said she had met John in graduate school and would trust him to take her own wedding photos. Long story short, I truly can't thank her enough for the referral because John ended up being a perfect match for what I was looking for. Before I contacted hi... read more

I have hired dozens of photographers over the last 25 years, including several who have won major awards. No one has ever done better work than John Decker. Anyone who has spent months organizing an important event knows how disappointing it can be when the photo coverage falls short of your needs - and how exciting it can be when the shots exceed your expectations. John is absolutely professional, dependable, fun to be around and great with subjects. If you want to eliminate worrying about the photos from your event checkli... read more

Our photos are fabulous. We couldn’t have as... read more

I needed some new photos for my website and professional materials, so I called John. He fit me into his schedule promptly, and was easy to work with. We met near the capitol and he came prepared to take a variety of shots - he even took some "studio" shots - no one would ever guess they were taken outdoors on a somewhat dreary day! I found John to be professional, courteous, and talented and I highly recommend his services!

John was such a great person to work with! We initially reached out to him because we has seen photos he had taken at another wedding that was at the venue we had chosen. The images were beautiful and we couldn't wait to meet with him. During our first meeting, we discussed things we were looking for in both a photographer and in our final images. John was very receptive to our ideas and desires and offered plenty of great suggestions of his own. It was very apparent, right from the start, that he was very knowledgeable and ... read more
