She has captured so many happy occasions for our family over the years--birthdays and other milestones--and each time she has brought such warm, uplifting, and joyful energy into the space. She has a gift for putting everyone at ease (kids and adults alike), and it really shows in the natural, candid moments she's able to capture. The images are beautifully composed, full of life, and truly reflect the spirit of the day. What means the most to us, though, is that when our family experienced a loss, Helen was there with such grace and sensitivity. She managed to document that day in a way that was deeply respectful and tender, honoring both our grief and our love. Those images are incredibly meaningful, and we're so grateful for the care she brought to such a difficult moment. Helen is professional, communicative, and wonderfully kind. We recommend Abounding Momentz without hesitation for any occasion--joyful celebrations, solemn gatherings, and everything in between. Her work is truly from the heart, and it shows in every image.

She did a fantastic job guiding us around the outdoor venue and doing different kinds of poses. Helen has a great sense of the lighting conditions and set the appointment time appropriately given the weather and time of year. She also turned around the final set of photos very quickly and it was fun to look through which ones we wanted to keep, all for a great value. We would love to work with Helen again!

I tell everyone about working with Leigh Ann by first telling them about her intake form. It's an…read moreincredibly detailed form that asks about what you're worried about, what your children's personalities are like, and the question that hit home most for me: what about this point in time do you want to capture? It got me thinking about the special relationship I'm developing with my twins, particularly since this was our first photoshoot just the three of us post-divorce. The fact that Leigh Ann asks such thoughtful questions made me know she gets it. These are more than just family photos. They're telling a story, capturing memories and feelings from this time in our lives. Not only did Leigh Ann capture that relationship -- in all its silliness, love, and intimacy -- in incredibly breath-taking photos, she made the entire experience so worth all the stress, time, and money. Family photoshoots are stressful and exhausting. As a single mom, I can handle the kids on my own no problem, but photoshoots are a certain type of kryptonite. I think because I actually have to pay attention to myself too and try to look presentable? For some reason I felt really nervous about the photoshoot, like I wouldn't be able to handle it, that the kids wouldn't smile or cooperate, or they'd want me to carry them both while I was lugging bags full of props and outfit changes at the beach. By the time we met up with Leigh Ann, both kids had fallen asleep in the car and I fretted that we were able to have two of the crankiest toddlers on the windiest day of the year. It was going to be a nightmare. Nope -- Leigh Ann was so great with my kids, she immediately won them over, and won me over because she had a wagon that we could put all our stuff in (and promised the kids they could ride in the wagon on the way back)! Honestly I was so exhausted by the time we got to the actual photoshoot, I don't remember much of it. It felt like I was on autopilot. But the entire time, I knew I could trust Leigh Ann. I knew she'd capture amazing photos, so I let go of all the pressure and expectations, and just watched her interact with my girls. She knew what to say to get them to smile, to run up to me with glee, and she was SO SO SO patient. She also has an amazing eye and got really creative, beautiful photos of us with the sunset. I could go on and on, but it all boils down to Leigh Ann being SO amazing. When I got the photos back, I knew I had to buy them all. There was no way to narrow it down to just 30. I'm so glad I got the chance to work with her, and I can't wait to work with her again next year.

I couldn't believe how easy and comfortable she made us all feel. It was just like walking in the park with a family member we haven't seen in years. Leigh Ann knew how to use her camera to capture the best in all 7 of us, our dog included! The session was all of 2 hours and she gave us memories that will last a lifetime! All the photos are so beautiful! We loved them all! I know the pricing may originally look overwhelming. It made my jaw drop at first glance. But when you finally receive your final edited photos....YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED! Her talent in capturing just the perfect moments was amazing! I bought every single one of our photos. I couldn't pick 15 or 30 prints. At this point, price was not an obstacle for me. I needed ALL of the photos! They created a special moment for all of us to share. Thank you Leigh Ann for sharing your talents with the Diaz family! We appreciate you capturing this moment in time for us. Beautiful memories made that day! We are so grateful!

She knew all the best photo spots in the building and wasted no time getting us into position for a huge variety of shots. She was super efficient and made the whole process feel fun and relaxed, even while working quickly to capture as much as possible. Her team was also incredibly professional and responsive leading up to the big day. Communication was smooth, and they made sure we felt totally prepared. All of the vendors she recommended-- our hair & makeup artist, our harpist, even the officiant--were fantastic and really added to how seamless and special everything felt. The final photos came out absolutely beautiful. Every shot felt warm, natural, and totally us. She really has an eye for detail and made everything look magical without feeling overly edited. We seriously couldn't stop smiling going through the gallery! She also made my bouquet, which was stunning and photographed so well. The only bummer was that it wilted pretty quickly after the day--it would've been nice if the flowers were a little fresher. But honestly, everything else was amazing and we're so happy we chose her!

She guided poses naturally, calmed our nerves, helped manage timing/logistics for our one-hour ceremony, and somehow got all the shots we wanted without ever making us feel rushed.

We especially loved the family photos and the romantic shots that captured the architecture perfectly. Her style feels classic and timeless. Doing engagement photos with her beforehand helped us feel so comfortable in front of the camera, and I highly recommend that. If you're getting married at City Hall, Emily is the photographer to hire!

My business partner and I did a lifestyle photo shoot with Jennifer over the course of three hours, and we had an absolute blast.

She listened carefully to our vision and ideas going into the session and made us feel comfortable throughout. We rented a small Breather office space for our photo shoot, and Jennifer was able to move things around and make it look like several different locations! The resulting photos are absolutely stunning, and we know that they will help us continue to build our brand and create those personal relationships with our customers.

She cultivates a space where you are engaged, having fun, and being your true self. I loved our time together. I remember being so nervous and how she quickly calmed me down, and I forgot it was a photo shoot. Jennifer knows what to look for and how to capture that moment. She is skilled and gifted only giving that right back to you with a lifetime memory of stunning photos. Every time I look at my photos, there is a release of neurochemicals floating through my body reminding me of this special experience and how valuable it has been for me. Everyone should make it a goal to have their photo taken by a professional photographer and for me this photographer is Jennifer.

I hired Marina's team to film a One Person Play called The Father Daughter Dance in San Francisco…read more It was a two camera shot and the results are tremendous. The quality of the video I received was first class. The way the team integrated both cameras in the shot came through was perfect. Marina was superb to work with. She was diligent about scoping out and creating a contract from my needs. She was responsive and flexible when we discussed what her work would be that night. I loved how her cameras were small and high quality not taking up a lot of seats in the theater was really valuable as I could sell more seats. Her work post production was remarkable. She was professional as we iterated on that the ultimate video looked and sounded like. I'm SO happy I hired her to do that post production work, no way I could have done that myself. Finally, she created a great trailer clip that I can now send to any potential venues that I want to book my show at. I strongly recommend Marina's team to work with you on shooting a theatrical performance like mine or any other video needs.
