My family and I loved it so much that I got my Mom a family photoshoot for Christmas this year and everything was absolutely perfect through every step of the way again. Quick communication, super easy to purchase the gift card and setup the date, time and location.

She was friendly and patient with us the whole time and her personality kept the vibe relaxing and fun. My wife and I don't take professional photos, so it was really nice to have an experienced photographer help us with poses and where to stand. We plan on asking her to take all our future family photos and we look forward to working with her again!

I definitely recommend coming to Dani for your baby photos and family photos!…read more When it came to booking these photo shoots she was very quick to respond. Prices vary on the photo shoot that you would like and all of her prices are posted right on her website. I love the transparency! So far I have done my maternity shoot, my baby's new born, and my baby's 1 year photo shoot! Dani is patient and kind which is definitely helpful when working with little one! She has plenty of wraps and baby outfits to choose from. She has her own studio in downtown Nile's but is also willing to shoot outdoors which is nice. Her style of photography is definitely what drew me to her and I wasn't let down.

My husband and I are both pretty awkward in front of the camera, but she made us feel so comfortable and at ease the entire time, ensuring we looked natural at the best angles! Danya is always incredibly responsive, easy to communicate with, and amazing at keeping everything efficient and on schedule. Her Mandarin skills was such a huge plus too, since it made communication with our family and relatives so much easier. She was seriously one of the MVPs of our wedding day, helping us stay on track while still making sure we got all the photos we wanted. We're so grateful and would highly recommend her/book her again! :)

Not just the main events, but the setting, the overall vibe, and all those candid side moments and emotions from our friends and family that we otherwise would have missed. We still get emotional every time we look back through the gallery. She's extremely professional but also just brought really good vibes and meshed well with everyone. Getting group shots can be chaotic, but she had great command of the crowd and made everyone feel comfortable. Even if you aren't used to being photographed, she gives such great direction and puts you completely at ease so none of the posing feels stiff or forced. Her attention to detail is next level, always catching the little things before taking a shot, like making sure we took hair ties off wrists or emptied out bulky pockets. We are so grateful to have these memories preserved so perfectly!

Sandy is truly one of the most skilled newborn/family photographers in the bay area! I was lucky to…read morefind Sandy 4 years ago with my first born and the newborn photos ended up being incredible! It was an easy decision to go back to her with our second baby. Here are some of the ways that Sandy truly stood out: - Both our babies were born around Christmas holiday and scheduling was not an issue at all for Sandy. She checked in ahead of the appointment to ensure we didn't need to reschedule (much needed for parents that just gave birth recently) and had our themes ready prior to us arriving. - The themes were 10/10, better than what we could've envisioned ourselves. And our themes were generic such as lemon or Christmas. - The amount of patience Sandy has is seriously amazing! Our second baby was a bit harder to photograph compared to the first, in addition to a toddler who wasn't in the mood for pictures, and it didn't phase Sandy at all. She took her time to make sure she was able to capture each theme well and had tips up her sleeve to get the toddler to take some pictures. I highly recommend going with Sandy if you're considering photo sessions! She goes above and beyond to ensure all the special moments are captured and the pictures are so incredibly worth it.

I'm truly delighted to share my experience working with Sandy! Her communication was wonderful from…read morethe very beginning, from arranging the appointment and customizing the scene setup to sending the photos. Everything went so smoothly. I am really impressed by her talent with infants and children; she was fantastic with my newborn and my 2-year-old. Her ability to craft stunning scenes is also incredible. And when it comes to her photography and editing skills, they are truly outstanding--just look at the edited photos, they're absolutely stunning! You won't be disappointed with Clairbare Studios and Sandy's gift for capturing beautiful, lasting memories of your little ones.

Do you see that adorable naked baby in the monkey hat? That is my baby! He was six months old when…read moreChristine did that photo shoot, and she was simply superb. She got smiles galore out of our little one, had an eye for capturing perfect shots, and was really creative. (My son couldn't sit up yet when the picture was taken, but she managed to snap that photo as he made a game of flopping over after we arranged him in a "tripod" position.) She knows how to make the best of natural light -- even if it means rearranging the furniture a little! In our session, we got photos in our home as well as outside, photos of the baby by himself and a few of the three of us together and of the baby with each parent individually. When I got the proofs, I actually squealed my way through them I was so delighted. We ordered pictures for our friends and family (including the one shown in the examples here), who loved them and admire our family portrait, which is so natural and captures our family perfectly. The price for the session is phenomenally good and the picture prices are good as well -- when I've heard what other parents have spent on photos that were pretty good but not oh-my-gosh-she-can-photograph-our-souls good, I just shake my head. I'm glad Yelp sent me Christine's way. As other reviewers have said, she is an artist. We've booked Christine again to take our little one's first birthday photos (time flies!) this coming Sunday, and I'm looking forward to it.

The pictures are incredible and we have received so many compliments from friends and family. We went to a nearby lake and also did shots in our house. We've been told the first year goes by so fast and we really wanted to capture our son in these different stages. Christine keeps things very simple and goes with the flow.

First, I want to say that Melissa is very kind and makes the experience comfortable, even if you're…read morenervous or shy in front of the camera. She's warm, welcoming, and easy to work with. I received around 80 edited proofs to choose from, and there were plenty of great options for my final selections. She also offers a wardrobe with beautiful dresses, as well as some clothing options for men. The location suggestions she provided were excellent, and she did a great job capturing the style and vibe I had in mind. That said, I do feel the need to mention some concerns about professionalism and turnaround time. Her contract states that proofs will be delivered within 2-4 weeks. While 4 weeks already feels a bit long, I was patient and checked in about once a week for updates. When the 4-week mark passed without receiving anything, I was disappointed. I ended up receiving the proofs after 4 weeks and 3 days. I reviewed and returned my selections the same day, but her contract didn't specify a timeline for final edits, so I wasn't sure what to expect. The final images were delivered 15 days later. When I received them, it seemed like the only changes made were removing the watermarks. Some photos still had bags and other items in the background, even though she had mentioned those would be edited out. Communication was also inconsistent. There were times when my messages were read but not answered, and at one point--about two weeks after the shoot--she indicated she hadn't started editing yet. It left me feeling like my time and excitement weren't fully considered. By the time I received my maternity photos, my baby was already three weeks old, and I had already shared photos of her arrival, despite scheduling the shoot at 34 weeks as recommended. Would I recommend Melissa? Yes, but with some expectations in mind. Her pricing is fair, and you do receive a large number of photos. However, turnaround time may be slower than expected, and communication can feel a bit casual at times. (She did provide 5 additional images to make up for the delay in delivering the proofs.) I had originally intended to do a new born shoot with her as well but I was waiting for my maternity photos to make sure I really liked them and unfortunately by the time I received them my baby was outside the 7-14 day old window she wants for newborns. Between that and the turn around time I decided against it.

Her talent behind the camera is undeniable--she has an incredible eye for detail, light, and composition. Whether it's a chaotic family gathering or a quiet newborn shoot, she brings calm & patience. Somehow, she always manages to capture the essence of who we are as a family--those authentic, fleeting moments that are more precious than any posed shot could ever be. Her finished photos are consistently stunning--thoughtfully edited and timeless. We're so grateful to have found her! If you're lucky enough to work with her, you'll understand exactly what I mean.
