I have been working with Pear Tree Photography for almost four years now, and they are my GO to photographer for all my corporate events! I love working with David and his team, as they truly understand exactly what I need for corporate event photography and make the process so easy! The photos they capture are always amazing, and the turnaround time to get photos is so quick! Highly recommend David and his team.

David and Sasha photographed our wedding and they were awesome to work with! We opted to not get engagement photos before the wedding so I was a bit nervous about how things would go on the wedding day. David and Sasha were very relaxed and fun to work with. I am an extremely awkward person but David and Sasha made me feel at ease right away. They were also very good at blending into the crowd and at least from our perspective they didn't disrupt the wedding trying to get shots. We just got some sample images and they are lovely! Initially we were also thinking of only asking for one photographer on the day to save some money. David convinced us to go with two photographers and I'm glad we did. Having two photographers allowed them to get some great shots of us, but also our family and friends. We would highly recommend Pear Tree Photography to friends!

We have been truly grateful to have found David who helped in taking many precious family photos at our baby's baptism celebration! He was very easy to work with and gave wonderful ideas/ suggestions to take great family photo shots. He was great with elderly and kids too. He was very patient and kind in taking photos of our crying baby and somehow baby still looks happy and cute in his photos! (Note: He knows how to capture baby at the right time!!!) He took great attention into details in making sure that people and decorations looked fantastic! Thank you so much, David, for capturing this special day of our family! We are so happy to have such lovely photos to cherish for our family tree now!!

My photographer was David Tam. We love the photos he sent to us. The entire experience was perfect and we received the photos fast (within a week). Highly recommended!

I found David's business via Google, and I will never look back. After seeing his beautiful photographs on his website, I needed to have him on my wedding day. Being in Australia, it was tricky to have an idea of if he was the right fit for us. But when we arrived in Vancouver and met him on our big day, he was perfect. He was so professional, kind, and clearly LOVES his job. His photos speak for him. We have had an enormous amount of compliments on our pictures, and that could not have been achieved without David. We had a party of 6 people! He created a personal package for us that suited our wants and needs with such ease. Everything from our initial inquiry to receiving the photos has been such an easy process. In a world full of artists, I promise you that Pear Tree Photography will not disappoint you. We now have hundreds of beautiful photos to choose from to display in our home and to send to our family and friends, and also the awesome memories we had with David. Thank you so much David for your gorgeous work and for just being yourself.

It has been such a pleasure working with David and his team at Pear Tree Photography for my wedding at Cecil Green Park House. He was able to capture and deliver elements that we were looking for in our wedding pictures, such as brightness, unique shots, and natural editing. We had a last-minute change in the location of our bridal party pictures, and David and the team were quick on their feet to find a new location that we loved. I would definitely recommend working with Pear Tree Photography for your upcoming wedding or special event, as they are all so professional, kind-hearted, and they deliver quality work. Thank you so much, David and the crew, for making our dream wedding our reality and for capturing all the special moments with our family and friends.

People skills and flexibility makes a HUGE difference. I work with a lot photographers as part of my job... Pear Tree Photography is one of my top 2 favorites to have worked with. Their skills is unquestionable, as you can see from their portfolio (low-light, action, romance etc etc etc). And totally on the ball during the planning phases. I don't think they missed a shot for our wedding. They were easy-going, accommodating, and have a good sense of humor. They know exactly how to address emotional guests.

It was a such a pleasure working with David. He is extremely professional and knows exactly what he is doing. I am camera shy person but he knows how to bring the best side of me out. The experience was absolutely amazing!

We hired the talented David Tam to help us capture our 20th anniversary. David helped us create the perfect moment. He was professional, yet friendly and gracious. David’s photos were a magical combination of natural and special. Can’t recommend him enough!

We had a great time with David! He was punctual and knowledgeable and put us at ease immediately! He was easy to connect with and schedule the shoot/bounce ideas off of before as well. We got a mix of a walking tour and photo session, and he was great at giving us direction and was really friendly easy to connect with, making us super comfortable. Thanks David for an awesome shoot!

My wife and I meticulously searched for the ideal photographer for our wedding, focusing not only on quality of photos, but also someone we felt we could trust and connect with. After coming across David’s pictures on his website Pear Tree Photography, we instantly fell in love with his photos, and decided we wanted to meet with him before committing to selecting him as our photographer. We instantly felt a connection with him during our first meeting and after signing the contract both my wife and I remember feeling extremely content with our selection. David continued to keep in close contact with us, making sure that we knew he was always available to answer questions or provide a second opinion. Finally, several months later, it was time for us to have our engagement photo shoot with David. After rescheduling a couple times due to rain, we finally were able to find a day where there were clouds with some sun. From the beginning of the shoot, David went straight to work and used his “photographer’s eye” to take incredible photos. Even though there was not much sunlight on that day, our engagement photos turned out to be very beautiful. As an additional note, during the photo shoot, David was very accommodating and waited until nighttime so that he was able capture a few night time scenery shots. We were amazed with the quality of both our engagement and wedding photos and received countless compliments from friends, family and co-workers. With David, you get the “full package,” and photos that match or exceed those of many other well-known studios, but at a much more reasonable price. Additionally, David always has a way of making you feel relaxed and natural during your photos so that you can get the best photos possible. Therefore, if anyone is looking for a fantastic photographer who you can trust and connect with, David is your guy!

Loved our group photos! David was able to capture great photos of our big group including kids. He also took the time to make sure we got the photos we want as a group, each family and just the kids.

David is a true professional. Our photoshoot was in the cold Vancouver rain, and it was perfect! He was on time, shared a few stories about his past and our location, and left us feeling like we got our money's worth. The photos turned out great. I would recommend it for anyone. I feel the setup could allow for a group of friends or even an engaged couple!

Meagan Griggs

My husband and I came to Vancouver for part of our honeymoon. We found David through an Airbnb experience session for an hour photo session and tour through Granville Island. David was very easy to get in contact with and meet up with in Granville Island. He was easy to get along with and definitely made both of us feel comfortable with getting our picture taken. He knew all the great photo spots and made sure we got everything out of the experience that we wanted. He also gave us ideas for what to do on the rest of our trip and had lots of great suggestions! We are definitely glad we decided to do this and that David was our photographer!

The professionalism and conscientiousness of David has made our experience with Pear Tree Photography one to remember. During our family photoshoot, we never felt rushed at all and David was very open to requests. A very lovely company that I would highly recommend.
