We love working with Brandi!…read more I met Brandi working at the same wedding as her. I was beyond impressed by her skills and professionalism. What really got my attention was how good she was at making people comfortable, and paying attention to the small details. As a photographer myself, it was very important for me to find the right fit for our wedding. She was so flexible and accommodating to all of our requests. My family traveled from different parts of the world (mostly South America), and she made sure everyone felt included and welcomed. I love having candid beautiful memories from all my loved ones. We've done multiple photoshoots with her since then, and the images are always outstanding. Brandi's also not only an excellent photographer, but she was so generous and fun to be around. She's so caring, patient and warm, which really helped to get our son to have fun too.

As 2 people who don't particularly enjoy being the center of attention or doing photo shoots, we can't commend Brandi enough for making us comfortable. She's very sweet and pleasant to be around. She gave us instructions when needed and was able to fade into the background so we didn't feel uncomfortable when needed as well. We had a few particular things we wanted her to capture and she listened and nailed it. She's a true artist and a lovely person. We're so grateful she was part of such important days for us. -Hannah + Ashley

My husband Cody and I worked with Emily to capture our elopement at the Santa Barbara Courthouse…read more Emily is amazing to work with! She is very approachable and made us feel comfortable in front of the camera. We are not professional models, but Emily made us feel like we were! She is super friendly and made the photoshoot experience really fun. She helped us pose and look our best. She also knew the courthouse grounds well which was helpful to us as we came from out of state. We are very happy with our photos! It's hard to choose our favorites because we love them all! It was important to us to capture the details of our day since it was just the two of us attending our civil ceremony. Our family is thrilled with the quality of the photos. We would recommend Emily for photography and hope to work with her again soon!

I've done two brand photography sessions with Michelle, and honestly? I love her…read more For my most recent shoot, she absolutely crushed it. She took my vision, made it happen, and then added her own creative spin that made everything even better. She didn't just check boxes, she genuinely cared about getting the shots I needed and making sure I felt confident and comfortable the whole time. Beyond being incredibly talented, Michelle is just a really good human. She's kind, fun, easygoing, and brings such great energy to every session. If you need brand photos and want to work with someone who will listen, collaborate, and deliver stunning work, Michelle is your person!

I am a classical pianist and I had a photo shoot with a singer I work with for concert publicity. We both had individual shots as well as shots as a pair done. The result was spectacular. As a person who isn't usually comfortable in front of a camera, Michelle made me feel at ease and really brought out what I think are the best shots I've had done. The space she works out of is wonderfully set up and is a very comfortable place to shoot in. Five stars for Studio 240 and Michelle Lee!

I have to say I was so excited how my headshots came out!…read more She knows how to get you in front of the camera for the natural scenes in life where you say to yourself, "WOW, I wish I had a camera" That is what she does! She has that " precise eye" to get that quality shot of your child or yourself (in my case head shots) and that natural smile. She even is funny herself and makes you feel like a rockstar so you smile naturally and it doesn't seemed forced! She said she is a mom herself and I am sure she must have endearing effect on children I actually was wondering how did these come out so great until I realized she herself was a model overseas! She modeled in Asia and that's the key to her outstanding work. She gets it! she knows how to get you in front of the camera naturally and artistically because she was there herself! She is worth every penny and another great adjective I am gonna use here is "excellence". She demonstrates excellence in her communication and making sure you are happy with her service. I would not hesitate, her work is amazing and she is amazing. check out her website too! http://www.donyajphotography.com

We are enlarging a few for our home and I can't wait to put them on display. She's fun to work with and great with little ones, patient and funny and willing to get on the ground to get those perfect shots of little ones on the run. She puts both adults and children at ease. She's quick too! I've gotten the edited images back within a week or two both times. My dad graduated top of his class at Brooks Photography Institute. He too was very impressed with the shots she took, commenting on what a talented photographer Donya is.

Wedding date: Sept. 15, 2024…read more Mayra was the all-star of our wedding vendors! From the moment we met her for our engagement shoot, she put us instantly at ease. She made us feel comfortable in front of the camera, offered great suggestions, and truly listened to what was important to us. One of our top priorities was capturing candid moments so we could stay present on our wedding day, and Mayra and her assistant did exactly that--beautifully and effortlessly. What truly set Mayra apart was her thoughtfulness and attention to detail. After our engagement shoot, we shared feedback about our favorite poses, and on our wedding day, she had those notes saved on her phone background so she wouldn't forget! That level of care made us feel like we were the only couple she was working with, even though we know she does countless weddings. Beyond her talent, Mayra brought so much warmth and fun to our day. She was always up for creative shots, made us laugh, and even captured amazing moments with our guests that we didn't expect. Her communication was fantastic from start to finish, and we felt completely at ease knowing she was behind the camera. If you're looking for a photographer who is not only insanely talented but also kind, professional, and a joy to work with, we can't recommend Mayra enough!

We travelled from out of state and she was easy to communicate with and made everything so easy. Thank you Mayra!
