The Best Orange County Photographer, Artist, and Restaurant

The title of The Best Orange County Photographer, Artist, Restaurant, Coffee Shop or whatever is subjective, I know, but that’s kind of the whole point of this post; they can be hard to find.

Of course there’s Facebook where you can post something to the effect of: “Hey everyone, I’m super hungry, where do you recommend I go out to eat tonight?”

Chances are, if you’ve done that (and I know you probably have), you’ve gotten people shouting everything back from “Go to the Montage!”, or “No dude, go to IN-N-OUT!”. The problem is, none of those people, more-than-likely, asked you any questions before giving you that advice on food.

I see the same thing online when people ask for a photographer. They ask their friends, “Hey guys, I need the best Orange County Photographer you know of, who should I go to?” Then they get an array of responses from, “Oh my gosh, you should go to this guy who did photography of my pets, he was fantastic”, to “Oh my gosh, my 12 year old niece wants to be a photographer and does great work and she’ll do it for free!”. The problem again is, no one asked the questions of what’s important to you.

Make sure when you’re looking for the best of anything in Orange County, that you’re looking for someone who is the best at what they do for what you’re looking for. If you need a family photographer, or an engagement photographer, then you’re probably not going to go to a pet photographer or that 12 year old niece of a friend. Instead, you’re gonna want to find someone who you can be sure of, beyond a shadow of a doubt can capture the love of your family and do it well, or capture the love and relationship of your spouse-to-be in a way that screams, “I frickin’ love this person and no one else!”, for all the world to see.

All that to say, when you’re looking for the best of anything, make sure they’re the best at what matters most to you. :)
