Black Rider Studios

We hired them for our family portrait session. Very professional and we loved the pictures. They took their time and both him and his wife Maria work very well together. I would recommend subscribing to their email newsletter as they have specials that come up. I am definitely using them in the future for any events. Thanks Black Rider Studios :)

This is long overdue.
When my wife and I first started interviewing photographs Black Rider Studios was one of the first. We were unsure but there was something about them that I felt they were the ones for us. It was the right choice, they not only were imaginative and professionals but they are creative and artistic. They were willing not only willing to find us a great location for our shoot but also willing to select it after the original site (that I also really liked) was making use a little uncomfortable because we felt it was a bit to far. Turns out they were right on, it would have been just right. They not only took photos and videos, they help make our special day amazing. I would and do recommend them for any special event you may have. I plan on using them for my next one, when ever that my be.
Thank you Black Rider Studios, thank you

My husband and I are so happy with our photos! Tony and Maria were great photographers, they are very kind, patient and professional. Highly recommended!
Thanks for our family pics!

We seen a Facebook post through friends of ours and we are so glad we booked them. Our Baby just turned 9 months and we realized we did not have professional pictures. With a market that is saturated with so many photographers we really had to just shoot in the dark. Our family is so happy with the whole process. We called Tony a day before and got a 3:30 spot the next day. We met at balboa park and hit it off immediately. Tony and Maria made my family feel comfortable and relaxed in minutes and then Tony took us to spots that would be not a typical «Commercial and Unnatural for our baby. we booked a 30 minute spot and they took much more shots then we expected. When we were done we got 1 preview in hours and all the finish product with in 3… totally before expected. thank you Tony and Maria

Our family portraits turned out magnificent! We loved them all. Tony was great, he really made my kids feel at ease and be themselves. They laughed and had fun while enjoying the shoot. This made for some beautiful pictures of them which I will always cherish. We have found our family photographers. :)
Thanks Black Rider Studios for your professionalism, great ideas and wonderful photos.

Black rider studios was holding a contest on their Facebook page, the 300^th like gets a free photo shoot. So I got friends to like it and got it to 299 and I added the 300^th like and won! So me and my girlfriend decided to do a couple shoot in Escondido around some train track’s. So Tony did the photo shoot with his wife. They’re very professional and we got along so well I felt like we had been friends fora long time! Very comfortable and very funny and full of wits. I couldn’t of been more pleased with the results. See for yourself!

We currently used them for our company photo shoot. Photos are amazing! The captures where exactly what we where looking for.
We recommend them to anyone looking for the perfect capture. Especially company’s needing that perfect tank you card :)

I have begun and erased, and started over again and again as I wrote this review. It will be a really, really long one. So high five if you get through it ;) I only write reviews when they are truly worth it.
All I am trying to do is explain how incredible Black Rider Studios is. My now husband and I interviewed photographers to take care of our wedding photos a few months ago. None of them seemed as warm and interested as Tony and Maria. From the moment we said hello to them we knew we were off to a good start.
The first time I saw their work was through a friends instagram page. The photo caught me off guard an I instantly needed to know who was responsible for such exquisite photography. Not only do they have an original vintage/​rebel taste, but they will work with your ideas and envision what you are looking for.
Maria is a real doll, she makes you feel comfortable and her genuine personality mixed with her good eye for details is wonderful. She did an absolutely amazing job with me. I am not a photogenic person at all so I was very nervous, but I have to say that she is truly an artist!!!
Tony will do anything to make sure you are happy with your photos. He is very passionate about his work and has fun with it. He really does not make this seem like his job, but like a hobby he truly enjoys (and is a rockstar at)
He always kept a fun, easy going personality, but took his work seriously and NAILED it!
Anyways, if you want professional, ORIGINAL, (not the same ol boring photos you see at every wedding) photos that will take you back to those beautiful moments, Tony and Maria are sure to captivate them in a flash. Our wedding photos were unbelievably stunning, they caught the funny, emotional, loving expressions of everyone and especially of my husband and I. They also took the time to write a heart warming blog about our wedding and shared their experience. Tony and Maria made us feel very special and met all of our expectation, not only that but they also included a photography book free of charge for us that we are very excited for!
CALL THEM I TELL YOU… serious. for your own good.
Thank you BRS!!!
