Neil Amin Photography

I needed a photographer to snap some photos of an engagement proposal, and Neil fit the bill. He was incredibly easy to work with, flexible, reasonably priced, and the photos turned out great. He spent extra time editing them and adding effects after the fact as well. Would definitely recommend to others!

My daughter's birthday was over two weeks ago and hardly a day goes by when I don't idly swipe through the hundreds of photos Neil took of the event and grin. Neil did a superlative job of capturing many, many fleeting, precious moments from the day. Neil has a really good eye for composing images and also has a really good sense of timing. Thanks to Neil, I now have some very beautiful images of our girl, as well as of our friends and family. I am grateful to Neil both for the quality of each picture and also for the range of the subjects he photographed: from my kid scowling, to her preschool buddies collapsed in a giggling pile of pink tulle, to my dad giving some buddies a crash course on Filipino fine dining. If you need an excellent photographer for your next event, book Neil.

I was really impressed with the professionalism and approach to detail in what I wanted on our special day. Neil captured every moment! Thank you for such amazing job!!!

My wife and I hired him to photograph our daughter's baptism, including the baptism church ceremony and the private luncheon which followed. The photographs were lovely. The photographer has a great eye and a wonderful attention to detail. My wife and I were very pleased with his services and the wonderful photographs. We would definitely keep him in mind if any other events come up in the future. 

Swapnil Amin recently took pictures at our surprise anniversary party. He did a great job, captured all of our family, and almost everyone at the party! I would definitely refer him for any type of party.

Hiring Neil was by far the best investment we made in our wedding day, giving us amazing images that bring us back to our wedding day each time we look at them!
He is full energy, took hundreds of beautiful pics throughout the event. He came early, walked us through the entire process and processed photos at Ninja speed.

He covered every single minor details. We love his work and I would highly recommend hiring him!!

We wanted to thank you so much for your amazing ability to capture the essence of our wedding day in such an enchanting way. We absolutely love the photos you took and are so happy with the selection you have provided us. You were able to include a variety of everything that made up our day and we cannot wait to share the photos with our friends and family. With the wedding now over a photo is the only way to preserve the special moments. Your photos will absolutely succeed in doing that for us. We would recommend your services to anyone who is looking for a talented, professional photographer who is a joy to work with and has the ability to put you at ease. Thank you again for everything.
Anyone who needs affordable photographer in bay area, Please contact Neil. He is great to work with.

We recently had another set of family photos taken by Neil – Neil is just the absolute best! Everything you'd want in a birthday party photographer,

1) He offers highly competitive pricing - before finding him, I'd heard of and found other photographers whose work wasn't nearly as good and their prices were ridiculous. Neil's photo packages are very reasonable, especially given the superb quality of his work.

2) He is easy to work with and very responsive! He arrives early for appointments, brings several props for the shoot, knows exactly how to make you at ease for the session, gives you ideas for your session and always returns messages promptly. Professionalism and customer service is highly underrated these days, but Neil's got them in abundance.

3) He takes FABULOUS pictures! If quality is truly what you're after and you want to capture those fleetingly magical moments with your little ones, then Neil is your go-to photographer.

I wouldn't trust our family events to anyone else. Neil is our best find on GigSalad. Book a session with him - you won't regret it.

Our daughter's first birthday was coming up, and we were looking for a photographer who would capture this special, once-in-a-lifetime moment.  We were first-time parents and didn't have a clue on who to go with or what to do.  It was either hit or miss.  We researched online and found Neil on GigSalad.  Neil is a great photographer who is warm, patient, accommodating, and just delightful with children.  My husband and I are generally camera-shy and feel awkward in front of the camera.   Neil gave us direction and guidance and made us feel comfortable.  Fast forward to a year later... This is our 2nd time using Neil.  Neil’s pictures are cute and simple with an artistic flair.  He always seems to be able to capture those whimsical, playfully quaint moments...

Neil did an amazing job with all of the photos and making sure that he had multiple photos of all the guests (180) which is no small feat when you have a large group. All of the pictures came out beautiful! I would recommend Neil for any kind of event and I will definitely work with him again in the future.

We invited photographer for my daughter's first birthday. The pictures have come out really good. All the guests gave us good comments. The collection of the pictures has good coverage of the event. Very Happy with the service received.

Swapnil (Neil) was absolutely perfect. He was able to work with me on a short schedule, was very personable, and most importantly, the photos turned out great! Highly recommend!

Thank you so much for yet another set of fabulous photographs. I am always so amazed by the way you are able to capture the very essence of the children in your pictures. You put everyone at their ease immediately and this makes for a fun photo shoot and fabulously natural pictures.

You have captured so many wonderful expressions and moments over the years. Every set of photos you have given us I will treasure. It is a great testament to you, that every single photograph of Charlie and Madeleine I have up around the apartment was taken by you (and there are lots of them)!!!

I can't thank you enough and am looking forward to our next photograph shoot already.

Neil is absolutely AMAZING. Yes, he is great with a camera. Of course. But his super-strength is being able to make our family comfortable and happy and relaxed so that when he takes our pictures, we look SO wonderful and close and happy together!

I have four kids, so our family can be a nightmare to photograph, Neil is such a pro, he helped us have the best time and our images are GORGEOUS. I love looking at them on my walls, it brings me happiness every day.

Neil is the most talented photographer I've ever seen and what makes him great is his ability to work with children.

All I have to say is that the pictures speak for themselves. Pure and simple, take a look at his portfolio and see for yourself. I hired Neil to take our engagement pictures. After seeing how he captured our special moments, we were eager to re hire him to do our wedding pictures. Neil has something that cannot be taught or learned. He has an intuitive feel for taking pictures and capturing the special moments in your life. Not only does he take amazing pictures, his professionalism and service is outstanding. He is extremely punctual and straight forward. He conducts his service in a streamline and professional manner. If you are looking for a photographer to capture that moment in your life, there is no doubt that I would HIGHLY recommend Neil.

Neil did my maternity photos
and it turned out AMAZING!!!! He truly catch the precious moments & made my belly looks so much beautiful than it actually was! The photo album was a surprise at my baby shower, I was so nervous. It was my first time seeing the photos after they were taken with my 60 guests at my shower. It turned out so beautiful that I was speechless and it brought tears to my eyes....
Highly recommend!!!! Neil has a gift of eyes and is so talented that will catch your moments to capture your unique story!!!! =)
