We had a great experience with Aiya Photography! Aamir and our family met for fall family pictures at a local park, and had a really fun time with the kids playing with the fall leaves. Aamir made us (and the kids) feel very comfortable, and provided really easy to follow guidance to help us get the best family portraits - where to stand, and also take the best advantage of our surroundings and the natural fall colors.
As a result our pictures turned out amazing - and will be a great lasting memory for us and our young kids. We had so many good pictures, we had trouble narrowing them down (to pick out for final editing)!
Thanks to Aamir for being so easy to work with and ensuring we had a great time.

Aamir was very thorough in the initial proposal and communication leading up to the photo session. The photos turned out great, and we received our photos and revisions promptly. Overall a great experience.

I just received my wedding pictures and am amazed how brilliant they turned out. I was very unsure of what photographer to go with since I am from Vancouver but was having my pre wedding ceremony in the U.S. I am soooo happy that I went with Aiya Photography. Amir was just awesome! He is super easy going. Has a great sense of humour and makes you feel so relaxed. He even stayed past our scheduled time and made the experience wonderful. Family is also very happy with the pictures. I would defiantly give Aiya Photography a 5 outa 5! Will for sure be back for family pictures :)
Thanks Amir!!

We did a family photo shoot with Aiya Photography right before Christmas and they turned out great! Aamir was laid back and made us immediately feel comfortable, including our shy and ornery 2 year old. He guided us through the shoot, suggesting poses that produced natural looking pictures of our family. His prices were also awesome and he was able to get our edited photos back to us in great time. We'd use him again!

We decided to work with Aiya Photography to do our provider photos for our local health clinic. Their work has been high quality and they were able to meet.... exceed our needs. I appreciate Aamir's willingness to work with our hectic schedules and to get everyone's photos complete in a tight timeline. :) They are great and will be using them in the very near future.

Aamir was wonderful to work with! I even had a flat tire and had to push my time back a little bit, and he was more than willing to accommodate for me. The photo shoot itself was a great first experience. I will definitely be going back and referring friends!

I recently had my first ever photo shoot and it was absolutely amazing. Aamir Khan, and Aiya Photography was a girl's dream. He made me feel absolutely beautiful and comfortable all at the same time. He really took his time to get to know me so that he would be able to capture the best photos possible according to my personality. He was very professional in his dealings, he was patient, and he improvised when we didn't have the best conditions because of the location spot. My shoot was suppose to be a two hour shoot, it went over just a little and Aamir was very gracious, he also allowed me to have a few more wardrobe changes than scheduled, he never rushed and took his time and took amazing photos.
I received the photos in a very timely fashion and they turned out to be breath taking. For a first timer I would most definitely recommend using Aamir, especially if you are unfamiliar with a photo shoot, he will do absolutely everything to make you feel at home and comfortable in your own skin. I am looking forward to using him again for a more personal photo shoot.

Aamir and Aiya Photography is a fantastic experience where you can expect exceptional results. I have been recommending him to everyone as he is just very professional. I had my professional headshots done with a certain look in mind. Fortunately, Aamir recommended to do another version which of course turned out to be the best ones as he predicted. He is very accommodating and willing to take many different shots. Few photographers understand the elegance of the combination of the emotion with the technical knowledge.

I went in just hoping to get one or two good headshots for a corporate media event and he really exceeded what I thought I could get. He made me look like the CEO of the company. I hope the real CEO doesn't mind that I look better then him on film.

Superb... flawless work and most importantly so professional, amicable and fun to work with. Aiya completed the photography for my daughter's wedding and I am so glad we picked them. I have worked with many photographers in the past 26 years and have to commend Aiya for their work and their interpersonal skills to make the families not only look so awesome in pictures but to make the wedding so easy to manage. Thank UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU so much!

I just received the preview of my Engagement Photo Shoot photos and I could not be happier. They are INCREDIBLE! I have no choice but to post a comment of my amazing experience with Aiya Photography so that others can hopefully have just as great an experience!
I met Aamir and Atafa back in October when I was deciding on a photographer for my wedding. They drove all the way from Modesto to meet with me, which is over an hour's drive, and they were the only photographer that offered to meet with me in person to discuss my ideas for the wedding. After explaining to me how they work, I explained my idea of the type of photos I wanted for my wedding. They asked me questions I was not expecting, about my fiance and I, how we met, etc. which are things I never thought a photographer would even bother with wanting to know. They took a personal interest in our lives and what we enjoy in order to give some really good ideas about what we could do with our photos, especially our engagement shoot.
They gave me a reasonable amount of time to consider the options and I had no choice but to book them because of the pleasurable experience I had with just meeting them, and also the affordable deals they had for all that they offered.
During our engagement shoot last month, my fiance and I felt more at ease than we expected! Aamir and Atafa made it feel like we were just a group of friends hanging out, who happened to be stopping to pose every few steps along the way. We had so much fun! They obviously know what they are doing and took a special interest in making the shoot as personalized as possible.
I have gone through our photos now 5 times already and can't stop looking at them (not to sound vain)! I love the way they have turned out and the adorable moments Aamir and Atafa have captured of my fiance and me. I cannot wait to show these off to our family and friends!
THANK YOU Aamir and Atafa! I can't wait to see what sorts of magic you come up with during the wedding and am so happy with my decision to book Aiya Photography for the most important occasions in our lives.

Aamir of Aiya Photography is an incredible photographer. We had seen the quality of his work at our nephew's wedding in St Louis and were very fortunate that he was available to take the pictures at our son's recent wedding in New Jersey. Aaamir's pictures are amazing and look like something out of a magazine spread. They are classy and beautiful. He photographed 3 events for us and gave his undivided time and attention to each. Aamir is very pleasant and easy to work with; he has the ability to put everyone at their ease, making the process of taking photographs a lot of fun. You can tell that that this is a lot of fun for him too! What also stands out about him is that he wants to get to know the bride and groom and their story. For us he is now part of the family and our younger son (who has a while to go before he gets married) has already said he wants Aamir to take his wedding pictures!

We worked with Aiya photography for our wedding pictures. They are friends of the family but I had never seen his work before and I was not sure about the whole thing. But after doing my home work and seeing peoples work we were not fully satisfied and we finally decided to call Aamir and looked at is work and right away I knew this what we wanted. Once on board they took the responsibility and it was there responsibility we had one less thing to worry about.
They were prepared and had it all planned out how they will cover the wedding.We wanted a photographer who can give us the blend of eastern and western culture and they did that beautifully. They understood the cultural values accommodating it and working with it. They for sure captured some great moments for us some they created for us and some were natural but you can't tell the difference. Over all we got ourselves a memory of a life time and I will be enlarging some of the pic. and I sure the quality would be just as good. I was nice to do business with them and I would highly recommend Aiya photography and if I had to give a negative comment then it would be that they are punctual. Which worked out good for us it help us keep things tight, focused and in track.

My husband and I were in search for the best photographers in the area to capture our big day! From the first meeting with Aamir and Atafa we knew our search was over and that we were going to have the BEST photographers for our wedding. Aamir and Atafa are pleasure to work with. Both are so professional yet very kind and personable! Their passion for photography is evident in their great work and enthusiasm to get amazing shots. They were also very willing to hear from us and execute any ideas we envisioned.
Both my husband and I felt completely comfortable and at ease with them. We had an amazing time during our photoshoot. We were confident we had the best photographers however they exceeded our expectations! It was a joy having our wedding photos taken by them.
With an excellent team like Aamir and Atafa you simply won't be disappointed! Choosing Aiya Photography was one of the best decisions we made! We highly recommend them and can't wait to work with them again in the near future!

Hands down the best photographer in town! Our family hit the nearest beach for Mothers day photo session with Aamir. The whole experience was awesome! He chose the location, the Edmonds Marina beach scene was beautiful in every photo that was taken on that day. The family package deal got us about 1.5 hours at the beach and it was windy day with lots of distractions for our little girls. Aamir not only managed to have 8 month old twins attention during the entire session but also got very cute pictures of them. And despite what we thought it couldn't get any better he offered us another photo session this time in his studio for the girls. He thought indoor pictures of girls would bring more of them and that's just how Aamir cares about his customers satisfaction. He takes pride in his work and he is very professional, resourceful, and skilled photographer. Talk about quality than quantity! We highly recommend him and Aiya photography. And did I mention that studio photos of the girls were adorable?! We sent some copies to our extended families and they all raved about how beautiful our girls were and the quality of the photos.
We will be back again!

Aamir is an excellent photographer! He is easy to communicate with and knew exactly how to get the shots I was looking for. His turnaround on the photos was really fast and the end results were even better than I had hoped for.

I found Aiya Photography through good friends who recommended them for any photography needs. (They had their wedding photos done by Aiya).
I needed headshots and Amir really came through with exceptional service, and delivered the best shots I've ever taken! His approach was amazing and made me feel right at home from the very start. He's very well trained technically, yet has an exceptionally creative touch!! Amir was awesome, and the results were excellent!
I am definitely coming back to Aiya Photography this summer for family photos, and would strongly recommend them to anyone with any photography needs!

Aamir was referred from some friends of mine that raved about his work, I took the time to look at his work and was amazed. I hired him for my wedding. For not personally knowing him he sure did know at the time of the wedding how to maneuver his way around our family and friends and capture every right momment. He made a photo album that came out absolutely amazing more than I couldve asked for, he knew exactly which pictures to pick out without having to even ask me. That to me shows how much he payed attention at the time of the photo shoot.
I have sense hired him for other occasions, I know every time I will walk away with memories that I can share and keep with family and friends for ever!

Aamir did a wonderful job for me. It was just a small job taking some head shots of me for my fitness work. I was there for about 1 1/2 hours. I never felt rushed and Aamir was prepared to take more if I wished. He is very personable and professional and I highly recommend him.

I needed a new "head shot" for my new business. It was very easy to meet with Aamir. He took several shots at different angles. By the end of the day he had them ready for viewing. They all turned out wonderful. It is all about deciding which one I like the best.

I love Aiya photography. The owners are super nice, are so talented, and they are not just photographers but pure artists. This is the First photography company Ive went to where I have had no complaints at all, everything turned out beautiful and on point. Ive had 3 shoots and my only problem is i have so many beautiful pictures i cannot decide which ones to frame! These guys r the best:)

Life is absolutely beautiful and it takes a photographer with a great eye and massive talent to capture that beauty and preserve it for all time. Aamir did this for us twice with our family pictures and with my brothers wedding!
His wedding photography told a story... There are pics where you can feel the bond of friendship between my brother and his best man and that bond being captured now can only get stronger. You'll notice Aamir as a fun, witty, and sentimental guy from the start and his "photographical stories" are just that as well. "Just remember, whatever you do... Don't look at the camera!!!" (Unless he asks you to!)
The family photography session was something last minute that we decided to do based on the work done with the wedding and adults, easy, we listen... Aamir had my kids 4 & 7 running around to different locations in a park and jumping into sand boxes and OMG they were giving us real hugs and kisses without even being asked because it was such a fantastic day in the park! Needless to say, that love was captured. And that between my husband and myself as well, which after so many years, you kind of wonder but its definitely there, no doubt!
Thank you, Aamir and Aiya Photography.

Definitely the best decision we made was to choose Aiya Photography. Not only did Aamir do excellent work with his great artistic vision, but it captured every touching moment of the festivities creating a story. Each person compliments the amazing slide show that was made for us capturing each epic moment allowing us to relive our moment over and over again. The attention to detail is uncomparable. Thanks Aiya!!

Aamir was absolutely great and fun to work with from the very beginning! He was generous with information and very helpful when I had questions. He treated us like real people, not just clients. The pictures (family photo shoot) are absolutely beautiful and everyone that sees the pictures (especially the boy’s ones) are so impressed with your photography. We are very happy with Aamir’s work and will definitely recommend him to other who wants high quality service and pictures at reasonable prices.
Thank you!

I m very happy we went with Aiya photography for our wedding pictures. The pictures came out beautiful! The photographer, Aamir, captured every moment. Also he was very professional yet a funny, chill guy who made us feel comfortable during the photoshoot. He also travels out of state if needed which is super convenient. Highly recommended, my husband and I loved the pictures and the entire experience!!!!

My husband and I hired Aiya Photography for our engagement and wedding pictures after getting referred to them by my cousin (who hired them for her own wedding). An excellent photographer was a priority for our wedding as we wanted beautiful pictures to remember the day, knowing that it would fly by! I am so glad we chose Aamir. He is extremely professional yet personable. He has a way of making you feel comfortable and at ease in front of the camera, which is an important quality to have in a photographer! His pictures are beautiful, so artistic and full of emotion; they tell a story. He was very accomodating to our requests and even flew to Maui to take our engagement pictures. It was a pleasure working with Aamir and we absolutely recommend him.

When my husband and I were looking for a wedding photographer, we wanted someone who has a unique modern style. From our first meeting with Aiya Photography we knew we had to go with them. Aamir and Atafa listened to our needs, suggested creative ideas and made sure we were comfortable and having fun on our engagement photoshoot! It was rainy and cloudy during our wedding, but regardless our pictures turned out amazing! We are so grateful that Aiya Photography captured all our special moments on the most important day of our life!

Aiya Photography is amazing!
Aiya Photography is amazing! I did my engagement shoot with them and wedding photos. I consider myself to be not so photogenic however I got numerous great photos that I love. The photographer gave great direction and the poses felt natural and comfortable. I have taken photos with other photograhers where I have felt the poses were un-naural and the whole shoot was awkward. However everything went smoothly with Aiya Photography. I loved that even though some of the pictures for the wedding were poses numerous other ones captured the moment. When I look at my wedding photos I can re-live that night through all the awesome pictures! Def recommend them!!!!!

We hired Aiya Photography for our wedding. I recommend him high for any couple looking for a great photographer. He is truly an easy going, funny individual who makes one feel comfortable and relaxed. Having a high comfort level with our photographer was very important for both my wife and I so it was such a relief when after our initial meeting with Aamir everything just clicked and we knew we had found our guy. Besides his personality, Aamir really brings a great eye and level of skill to his work. Some of his pictures from our wedding were absolutely incredible and showed his unique instinct for capturing the moment.

With Aamir as your cameraman and Atafa as the director, you just can't go wrong. Even with limited resources and restricted time, Aamir and Atafa were able to generate an amazing photo shoot for my hip hop group. Aamir was brilliant with his camera lens at capturing the moment. As for Atafa, she was exceptional at breaking the ice with jokes and creating a very comfortable environment along with Aamir's witty humor. I highly recommend them!

We hired Aiya photography for my brother's wedding and they did an absolutely amazing job. Their photographs were not only artistically superior but the service was so professional and courteous.
The slideshow they made was seen around the world by friends and family and are raved about even years later.
The Aiya photography crew are very friendly and easy to get along with. Aamir is so thoughtful and dedicated that he blends right into the bridal party. His 'perfectionism' is evident by his willingness to put himself in all sorts of awkward positions, determined to take just the right shot. We will be hiring Aiya photography for all future events. Thank you Aiya photography for capturing our memories with such devotion and professionalism.
Aiya photography went above and beyond the limits of their contract when we hired them again for our first family shoot. Working with a five month old model was not easy but Aamir and Atafa made those 2 hours feel like a breeze. They captured shots that were candid and produced pictures that belonged in a magazine or art gallery. We were touched by their care and attention to detail even whilst working with such young children. Thank you for all your hard work Aiya photography.

Aamir and Atafa were great to work with. So far, they have done our engagement photos, which were not easy since we had a very odd request. My fiance John and I are big into 4 wheelin', so for our engagement photos, we asked them to go up to the mountains with us and capture us doing what we love to do. They were all for the idea, when we were up there, it was just like any other day, only someone was taking pictures. We did it on a Saturday, and had the pictures edited and ready for us to view on Tuesday night! They are great people to work with, and I am so confident that they are going to do a great job capturing all our special moments on the big day! We will be using them for any other special occasion we come across in our lives. Thank you guys so much!

My husband and I got married on Aug 8th, Aamir and Atafa did our wedding photos from beinging to end and still did out party after the wedding, we are very happy with all the pictures, we didnt have anything in mind of what kind of setting we wanted, we left it all in their hands and enjoyed our momment, and am gald we did that, because they really did what fit us and what they knew what would make us happy, they let us enjoy our momment, we couldnt have asked for more, still till this day we get compliments on our album, We cant wait to work with them again and take pictures with the new addition to our family our baby girl.
