"I can’t describe how amazing our experience with Peer was. He is an absolutely incredible photographer - our pictures are better than I could have imagined. Every person who has seen my pictures have commented on the amazing photography! On top of the photographs, he has a great personality and was an absolute pleasure to work with. We actually had a lot of fun taking the pictures, largely due to Peerís style and personality. I corresponded with him several times by phone and email, and he was always very responsive. To top it off, he provided the pictures both online and on a dvd. I wish I could give him more than 5 stars!"

"We cannot say enough great things about Peer. He was a god-send and our experience with him was absolutely amazing! He was so professional yet down to earth, very easy to get along with it... he made everything so easy. And our pictures were incredible...they totally exceeded our expectations (which are quite high)...ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. We love all of them and continue to look back at them periodically and each time continue to be impressed with the quality of the pics. We couldnít have asked for more. And we were also fortunate to have incidentally booked his wife (which to our surprise he never mentioned), Rhonda, a professional make-up artist who did a spectacular job with my make-up. She was so sweet and charming and really listened to what I wanted. After she was done, I was so happy with the result...it was exactly what I had hoped for and more. My husband was blown away and I will always cherish my pictures thanks to her amazing work!"

"We are so very pleased with the photos Peer took at our small Central Coast wedding. When we were looking for a wedding photographer, cost was a big concern. We looked at Peerís website and discovered the perfect match for us...affordable pricing and wonderful photography. Our photos are unbelievably beautiful. We had high expectations after viewing his portfolio, but our photos turned out even better than we had expected. We would highly recommend Peer to anyone!"

"Peer was an irreplaceable asset at out wedding. Not only did he capture all our most precious moments, but he also helped us to plan the wedding! With his extensive knowledge on the best places to stay, eat, take photos, ceremony sites and reception venues, bakeries and videographersÖPeer made it so easy for us to have the wedding of our dreams! Our wedding was an all day affair, and Peer was diligently and tirelessly working the whole time; arriving at the house early in the morning, through to the dancing late at night. He took our multiple last minute changes in stride, and was completely open to do whatever we asked of him. He had wonderful ideas for our photographs, and he took on our ideas with great excitement and energy too! Through all the different lights of the day, and all the different locations we went to, Peer took the most beautiful photos that not only captured the moments, but the character of the whole day. He has provided us with the best memories of the best day! He was an absolute pleasure to have at our wedding, not only as a photographer, but now as our friend as well! Plainly put, if you want someone who feels more like family or a close friend that you have known for 20 years taking the best photos for you; helping your most special day run smoothly, capturing every beautiful nuance of your wedding, and bending over backwards to get you the photos that you always dreamed of, Peer is the man for you!"
Michelle & Chris
"Peer Johnson is clearly more than a "wedding photographer". We were in complete awe of his talent and extremely grateful for his enthusiasm and commitment. The pictures are amazing-we literally LOVE them all! We so appreciate the (apparent) ease with which he captured our vision every step of the way. He is a true artist with an inspired eye. Not to mention, a cosummate professional, and yet he made us feel extremely comfortable and relaxed. By the end of the day, our family practically wanted to adopt him. We are forever indebted to him and his incredible gift. We are confident that NO ONE else could have captured our day better than him."
Brittany & Mike
"The mark of a good photographer is when, no matter how much time has passed, you relive the moment and experience the same emotions you felt at that point in time, simply by looking at a photograph. Two months have passed since Peer photographed our intimate outdoor wedding, and his method was so unforced and organic that it truly captured the essence of the event. Peer was self-directed, yet accommodating. We are amazed at how adeptly he captured so many candid, personal moments and gestures on film - we are forever grateful to have these treasures.
The greatest compliment we can give an event photographer is that he was virtually invisible; totally unseen, Peer created an emotional photojournalistic album from the periphery. As pleasant as a person could be, he was also a joy to interact with, and made the few minutes of obligatory portrait sessions very comfortable, easy and fun. We can not recommend his services strongly enough."
Lisa & Jonathan
"As an Art Director at a publishing firm I work with professional photographers all the time, so I know something about what it takes to do this well. Peer was amazing: he was professional, creative, understanding, listened to what we wanted and made our wedding relaxed and stress free! His photos are amazing, we think he was several places at the same time and was virtually invisible during the ceremony (which we appreciated). We are amazed at how he captured not only the images but the emotions and "feel" of our day! I was nervous about having my picture taken (usually I am on the other side of the camera!) but Peer made me feel happy, relaxed and beautiful. He captured moments from our day that we and our families and friends will treasure for a lifetime. We can not say enough good things about his service, the pictures on CD were delivered early to us, and the Pictage site will be great for sharing photos. Choosing a photographer was the hardest part of planning this event for me, and Peer surpassed every expectation. I would recommend him without reservation!"
Lori & John
"Peer is an incredible photographer. I work in photography as well, so my primary and overarching concern for my wedding was to have an experienced photographer and quality images. Not only did Peer meet this expectation, he exceeded it. In communicating prior to the event, he responded quickly and efficiently; since we were not from California he was helpful in many aspects of our wedding planning. He was markedly friendly and incredibly easy to work with; he was flexible to the point of meeting our last-minute ceremony location and time change. The color, exposure, focus, and framing of all photos were faultless. I could not have asked for a finer photographer or more perfect experience. For the price you will be HARD pressed to find better."
Mallory & Alec
"From day one of contact with Peer, his responses were quick, any questions asked were answered clear and timely. Before the wedding and before I had even called him about timeline of the day, he had already scouted the locations, outdoor lighting for the best shot and the extra location in which we did our couple photos. During the ceremony and the reception he got shot after shot, yet his presence was not even known. I didnít feel ever like the photography was taking over the day. He was perfect at his timing and certain moments that I enjoyed viewing after the wedding. If you want a photographer that takes the time to know what you like, but also knows what is best for the shot, Peer is the man for you. We also had so much fun while our photo shoot was happening that our day continued with perfection."
Katie & Rocky
"Peer was PERFECT! I cannot tell you how wonderful he was on the big day! He showed up early which was super helpful and wonderful! He had visited the Holly Farm previously to get an idea of where to take pictures and see the layout of the grounds. Peer was dressed nicely in black and seemed to blend into everything seamlessly! We hardly knew he was there sometimes! My husband even commented that he was not aware that Peer was taking pictures at certain points and was pleasantly surprised to see shots of the festivities from different angles and viewpoints. He was also very courteous and helpful to not only my bridal party but to my guests as well! He took charge of the photography sessions and made me feel very unstressed and confident that I had put this job in his hands. It was a huge relief off my shoulders. It allowed me to further enjoy my special day with my friends and family. I would suggest him to anyone and everyone! I already have started to do so in-fact! I was so pleased by the whole experience and my guests even commented on how wonderful he was, I cannot help but suggest him as the PERFECT photographer to anyone needing a photographer for that special occasion! I would hire him again in a heartbeat!"
Dani & James
"I just wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed having you at our wedding, and how pleased we are with how the pictures turned out. You really did an excellent job, and made the whole experience just that much better. You have a really great eye, and took such wonderful pictures of everyone there. Also, we loved how the pictures of the dogs turned out, that was so nice of you to do that (in case you couldnt tell...we really love our dogs!). Overall, we loved and appreciated your work, and just wanted to thank you for being part of our special day! I hope that things are going well with you, and if I hear of anyone in the area looking for a photographer anytime in the future, I will highly recommend your services to them. Thanks again, and have a great day!"
Margaret & Jeff
"I was planning a destination wedding in Pismo Beach, CA. I think the hardest part is trying to interview vendors and see if they meet the personal expectation that you expect at your wedding. Out of all of the photographers that I interviewed, I would have to say that Peer was the most down to earth-light hearted one that replied. His e-mails were thorough with an added bit of humor which made me realize that he was the best person for the job. Seriously, anyone can take a picture and photo shop it, but can a person really work patiently with a group of photo happy guests that keep taking his spot to take personal pictures? He did an awesome job and cordially whisked us away for some personal time!"
Jennifer & Jimmy
"Thanks SO much from Eugenia and I for your help during our wedding ceremony. You guys were true professionals and it was a great success. Peer, thanks for all of your coordination and photographs. Rhonda, Eugenia had nothing but great things to say about your skills and makeup. It was exactly the way she had wanted and she looked lovely."
Alan & Eugenia
"Peer was by far the easiest photographer to work with! He was professional, VERY flexible, and his pictures are beautiful. I personally hate pictures of me, but the pictures that Peer took were perfect. I was running late all day; he didnít rush us and still managed to take tons of pictures. We now have the option to print our pictures ourselves or use the online service that he recommends. We highly recommend Peer for your wedding."
Jessica & Gordon
"I received the pictures and I absolutely LOVE them. There are so many great ones, its going to be tough doing an album!! Lenny and I both wanted to thank you for all your hard work, your pictures are amazing and we both feel like you captured the day for us perfectly! You did an amazing job!!"
Amie & Lenny
"Peer was fantastic to work with. He really listened to my requests and gave me exactly what I wanted. Peer has a fun easy going personality which made it relaxing during the photos...I knew I wanted to hire Peer from his website. His website was so well put together and the pictures were fantastic that I knew he would make my event look great. I sincerely recommend Peer Johnson for all your photography needs."

"Peer Johnson is a very talented photographer. I would highly recommend him for anyone seeking a skilled professional who has integrity.
