Orlando Dalisay Photography

My wife and I discovered Orlando here on Unilocal while searching for a photographer to shoot our engagement photos. After researching a number of different photographers, Orlando’s work stood out to us and we knew we wanted to hire him. We ended up hiring Orlando to shoot our engagement photos and wedding. Both turned out better than we could have imagined. We received numerous compliments on both our wedding and engagements photos. Orlando is able to capture moments in creative ways that not many photographers can. He was open to all the ideas we had for our photos, while coming up with great ideas himself. Orlando’s work speaks for itself, but he was also a pleasure to work with. He was always extremely responsive, professional, friendly, and fun to work with. We cannot say enough good things about Orlando. Do yourself a favor and hire him for your next event. You will not regret it.

Jackie and I, of An Inspired Event (
), have been working in the wedding industry for several years now. We keep a handful of vendors we trust that we call on for personal events like family photos. Orlando Dalisay Photography is one of the photographers we trust to capture our loving family. He’s a hardworker and the work is proof. Thanks Orlando for your support over the years and working hard for the events we had worked together on.

Orlando was the best! My fiancé and I booked him for our engagement photos at the UC Davis arboretum and we could not be more pleased. Here are a few reasons why he was the best:
1. He was easy to communicate with via email and phone. He always got back to me quickly.
2. He was extremely professional and easy going. For people like us who went into our engagement shoot feeling slightly awkward about posing and having so many photos taken of us, his laid back personality and guidance definitely helped.
3. His photos are beautiful! He had a great mix of posed, candid, and fun shots.
4. His turn around time was fast. He guaranteed our photos would be finished in two weeks which is extremely reasonable, but he was actually done with them in three days. I was very impressed!

Orlando is AMAZING!!! We decided to do a pregnancy announcement photo session & my husband remembered that his previous business associate, Orlando, was a photographer so we reached out to him. He is creative, fun & so passionate about what he does! Orlando was really patient with our boys too. We are a couple that loves to have a good time & we needed to make sure that our photographer had that same vibe while expressing that in the photos– Orlando was a perfect fit. He helped capture precious moments & we will have memories to cherish forever! Thanks, Orlando. Sorry again for being late :)

My fiancé and I decided very last minute that we wanted to take family/​engagement photos with a professional so I did some research and found Orlando through Groupon. With our wedding about a month away, I contacted Orlando on July 2 via email and was able to make an appointment for a photoshoot with him for July 12. Not only was he able to fit us into his schedule with such short notice, he was also willing to mix up the shoot with some engagement photos of my fiancé and I and some family photos with our toddler. We received digital copies of our photos less than a week later and they were AMAZING!
He responded to my emails very quickly, was very accommodating and understanding with our timeline, and made the process very very quick and easy for us. We will definitely be contacting him again for all of our family photoshoots in the future.

Orlando and his crew are popular in the Bay Area! He has been referred from one family to another because of his great work. He’s easy to work with, professional, and family oriented which makes any type of photoshoot incredibly FUN! Looking forward to working with you again soon!

I’m grateful to have worked with a very professional photographer! At first I was a bit nervous being the fact that it was my first photoshoot with a photographer, but Orlando made my experience fun & comfortable. Very friendly and easy to get along with. He captured great photos and I definitely recommend him to anyone who wants to capture life’s moments :)

We went with Orlando for our July 2014 wedding in Pleasanton and absolutely loved our experience with him! He was so easy to talk to and share ideas with. Luckily we got referred to him from a coworker so the wedding photographer hunt was fast and pain-​free. It’s very easy to communicate with him via email or phone and he’s almost always in the Bay Area for one client or another.
He was so open to all of our fun and creative ideas and contributed some really awesome ones himself so that was great. From the engagement shoot in Napa to the wedding itself, he made all the picture taking and posing fun and effortless. Not only did we forget they were there, Orlando accommodated some fun, impromptu family photo ideas during the reception.
Having our wedding album put together was one of the best experiences though as he put everything together for us and we edited as we saw fit. I love that he shows us his creativity and all the ideas we totally would not have thought of then lets us put our personal touches on it. He’s very efficient and detail oriented and focuses on making our wedding story shine through. Would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a photographer who’s worth every penny!

An eye for creativity and vision, meshed together with his skills, Orlando brings your photos to another level. He has a God given gift to create beauty through his lenses. What makes things even better is his go with the flow personality. Also, I must add, he has the cutest of all helpers. ;) I highly recommend him and will be using and recommending him for upcoming events and gigs.

Very easy to deal with. Called him at the last minute and moved his schedule just to accommodate us. Loved the photos. I needed them for our Christmas cards and received them right away. Looking forward to more photography session with Lando. Thank you, ODP!

I used Orlando for a work event and they were great! They arrived on time and stayed past our set-​time to accommodate the line which I really appreciated. And a few days later, I received my CD with all the images just like promised. I look forward to working together again!

Amazing photographer and unique in his own ways. Orlando has been an integral part of my family’s life and created countless memories by capturing timeless moments. From our son’s final days of life to our wedding day, Orlando’s photography skills seized the moment. Not only a fantastic photographer, but a great videographer to ice the cake! Orlando is a class act with unbeatable prices! This is a photographer who will capture your stories!

Orlando and Lex were our wedding photographers for our engagement shoot and our wedding day on 5÷17÷14! I’ll start by saying that I NEVER take time to write reviews– I usually only will check in or write a review if it means I get a free appetizer or something haha. Although this is a couple months over due, I’m taking time to write this because it is very well-​deserved! We were referred to Orlando by my husband’s cousins and when we met him for the first time, we were blown away by how personable he was and how much passion he showed for his art. We booked him well over a year before our actual wedding day! I can get pretty meticulous when it comes to budgeting, logistics, details, etc. and Orlando was very reasonable and flexible with us– I really appreciated it! During our engagement shoot, we saw firsthand how creative this guy is. He would kind of just dart his eyes around any environment and come up with unique ideas! Ron and I had so much fun with him and Lex and that was important to us too because we wanted to feel comfortable and at ease with our photographers. The wedding day went by fast and so many things happened haha but I trusted Orlando and Lex completely. When Ron and I saw all the wedding pics less than a month before the wedding, we were soooo happy and excited to see every special moment captured. I highly recommend Orlando for any photography need!
Thanks Orlando and Lex for being an important part of our wedding day– we seriously love you guys! You guys rock!

Orlando is an awesome photographer! He did family photos of my family a few years ago. And we were so lucky to have him come to Hawaii for our vow renewal. He did a set of engagement photos of us at the UC Davis Arboretum, another one at the Lagoons in Ko’Olina, Hawaii, then our vow renewal at the JW Marriott Ihilani. He did such a beautiful job on our photos and we cant wait to see our wedding album that he will be putting together. He also hooked us up with his videographer Lex, and they worked so well together. We had such a fun time with them, rolling around in the sand, hopping around on pointy rocks with the groomsmen, and hoping not to get swept into the water while in my wedding dress. But it was so worth it. the pictures came out so beautiful with the ocean and sunset behind us. I am so happy that we were able to have orlando and his crew come out to Hawaii for our destination wedding, we will treasure the pictures forever!!!

If your looking for quality work, this is your guy, he took my engagement pictures, and I gotta say his work speaks for it self, very very nice guy, very creative and very proffesional, highly recommend him

We are currently working with Orlando Dalisay and my fiancé and I are more than happy with our photographer. We just finished up our engagement photos and not only was he flexible but really engaged us throughout our photo session. During our engagement session he really catered to our needs and even used some of his creativity. The photo session went smoothly and we are very excited to have Orlando apart of our wedding team.
September 2, 2015:
Orlando just did our wedding and EVERYONE couldn’t stop commenting on the same day edit video. The photos were amazing and breath taking. Orlando and his crew (Lux) were so easy going and quick! I’m so excited to see all the proofs (3 weeks!). We’re so happy that we chose Orlando. You will not be disappointed!

Orlando’s creativity with his photos is what makes him one of the best! Whether for family, fun, business or that special moment in your life — you will not regret this talented photographers photos! He is our official family photographer annually! Love his work & it only gets better! Keep it up LAN!

One of the best photographer in the Bay Area.
I Highly recommend the use of his service.

Orlando is as good as it gets when it comes to a photographer! His eye for detail and complimentary angles made the shoot exquisite. Orlando made me feel extremely comfortable and had helpful tips and tricks for poses.
If you’re looking for a photographer who can bring out the best sides of you, hire Orlando!

My husband and I hired Orlando for our August 2012 wedding. He was professional, honest, creative, and easy to work with. He got to know our personalities and style through constant communication. He even helped me with my wedding planning by referring a make up artist and day-​of coordinators, when my originals fell through! The engagement shoot in San Francisco was a blast! He and his team helped calm our wedding day nerves by making it fun, cracking jokes, and just getting the job done so we can enjoy our party!
For a couple that HATES taking pictures, even so, showing pictures of ourselves, we were very proud to show off our wedding pictures to anyone that would look!
Our pictures still make us emotional, and will continue to do so. Thanks for being part of our day, Orlando!
