Inspired By Studio - San Jose, California

Had a wonderful experience working with Inspired By. They integrated seamlessly into the wedding day and captured plenty of private and public moments that were very meaningful. They asked for feedback on how we would like the videography done and really tailored it well into the final video they sent us. From the photos to the videos, Inspired By Studio did an excellent job and we would definitely recommend them to everyone.

The Inspired By Studios team was absolutely wonderful to work with. They took care of photography and videography for my wedding and tried to make sure everything that day went well. During the wedding, they were also very accommodating and tried to make sure everything was as close to perfect as possible with arranging and rearranging things. My wife and I love the photos and video that they produced. 100% recommend them for your event.

The team at Inspired by Studio were absolutely a pleasure to work with for our elopement and wedding shoot. From the initial consultation to day-of, Thien and Eric created an incredibly comfortable, personable, yet professional ambience. Thien and Eric were also very accommodating and generous. For instance, our elopement shoot required some coordination and hiking. Even though we hit a few snags, Eric took everything in stride and proceeded with a huge smile on his face. His photo-journalistic vibe definitely captured the emotions and actions of the day. The photos vibrantly relive those moments. It has also been amazing to look through the photos and experience the wedding ceremony and reception through different perspectives. I highly recommend the Inspired by Studio team!

We hired inspired by studio videography team for our wedding. As a result, we made a great decision to have inspired team capture our special day. We had no regrets and stress with working team. The team honesty and work ethnics makes it easy for us to trust them. The only regret newly engaged couples might have is passing up the chance to hire them to capture wedding day.

What an absolute joy and privilege to get to work with Thien, Eric, Dave, and Jason for our wedding (and Thien for our engagement shoot). Not only are they exceptionally talented in their craft (our photos and videos are perfection), but they were a dream to work with as professionals and partners in our big day.

We first started to work with Thien in preparation for a September 2020 wedding. We ended up postponing *twice*, and the Inspired By team stuck by us every step of the way, through the ups and downs of pandemic wedding planning, all while their own industry was experiencing unprecedented challenges. They prioritized being there for their clients with the utmost empathy, flexibility, and professionalism. (What a breath of fresh air compared to other wedding businesses we hear about!)

When we finally were able to have a 200-person wedding safely outdoors in Fall of 2021, the Inspire By team showed up for us in full force. They beautifully captured the big celebrations, tender nuanced moments, and everything in between. Our guests RAVED about them - I had multiple guests go out of their way to tell me that they were so impressed with our photographers - that they were everywhere, they were engaged, they were fun, and they were "clearly REALLY good" at what they do. Passion makes such a difference. It's obvious in the final product when people do what they love and do it for all the right reasons - the Inspire By team truly exemplifies this.

We cannot recommend this team enough. We look forward to working with them again and again for all of life's special moments!

If you are looking for videography (and photography) services for your special event, I beg you! Please book the InspiredBy team! You will not regret it.

I found Inspired By Studio a little over a year ago (May 2021) through IG and immediately sent in an inquiry about services for my wedding for the following year (May 2022). From the time I sent in the inquiry to when someone responded, it was just under 24 hours. I didn’t expect to hear back so fast! My then fiancé and I spoke with Thien and we got along so well during our consultation appointment. He is such a great guy, super down to earth, and easy to get along with! We immediately emailed him back that evening and booked the InspiredBy team for our wedding! No hesitation at all.

Since our wedding wasn’t happening for some time, we didn’t communicate for awhile other than confirming our date and sending back a signed contract and initial payment. Thien remained to be our point of contact throughout the whole thing. Once it got closer to the wedding, he checked in with us often for any wedding planning updates and our photography/videography timelines. The day of the wedding, we had Thien and Dave with us and they made it easy to act natural while they had to get their video shots. Other than the necessary after ceremony posed photos and video shots, we didn’t even notice the cameras throughout the night! The whole experience felt easy and non stressful.

I would recommend Inspired By Studio for any and all events you may plan in the future, no question about it. From the time I met them to now, they even expanded their team and studio location. I would book them again and again and again! They have great things coming their way!

I have worked with Eric for 2 events so far & hopefully more to come! He photographed my son's Annaprashan (feeding ceremony) back in 2019 at Ruby Hill when my son was 6 months old. We had many relatives from out of town so it was great to get tons of family photos and candids to remember the event. This past weekend we worked with him again for family fall photos. My son is now 4 years old & is a crazy bundle of energy but Eric worked his magic with him. He also got to meet & photograph my daughter who is 6 months old. I consider these family photo shoots a gift to ourselves; we love being able to look back on these beautiful pictures, especially as the kids grow up. I tend to get nervous in front of a camera but Eric is so personable and a joy to work with, that I am able to relax and enjoy the experience. Definitely looking forward to working with Eric more in the future & highly recommend others to do the same!

Love love love Inspired By Studio!!! They did our wedding videography and we've watched it at least 100 times now lol. They captured all the important details, the emotion, the fun, nothing was missed - watching the video easily recaptures all the feelings of the day, even though it's been 2 years since our special day. I still remember the first time I watched it... I definitely cried! I honestly didn't expect a videographer to be a must, or to feel so moved - but now I'm convinced and always tell friends that the video is everything! Thanks again, Thien! You're truly an artist!
