I could not be happier with the selection I made with Studio 45. From booking the day/time, to getting my pictures, Heather and Jeff were extremely helpful, accommodating, professional, and friendly.

Words cannot describe how incredible they are, not just as photographers (they did our engagement session and judging from that, I seriously cannot wait to see the wedding pictures) but as people. We instantly clicked and I knew it was going to be awesome. They not only were there to capture every special moment from arriving, getting ready, the ceremony, reception, all the way up until the send off (that was about a 12+ hour day) but they were a message or a phone call away with any questions I had pertaining to the wedding (even in areas that weren't photography, like working with the DJ for a timeline, assisting if we needed anything picked up or done around town before hand among many other things). When the day was said and done, I knew that it wouldn't be good bye for good because I 100% plan to have them continue to be our go to photographers for major life events and family photos. We didn't just hire photographers, we hired friends and I cannot say enough good about them! Thank you Jeff and Heather for making the beginning to our newest chapter so perfect!

On the day, she was unfailingly polite and friendly to everyone she came across, and yet invisible most of the time. She really just let us, and all our guests, get on with enjoying the day - it was crucial to us that we could actually enjoy the results of all the effort we'd put into planning it, and although Ana was always at our disposal, it was so nice to just let her get on with it! Ana delivered a beautiful set of images that capture many very happy memories - I'm sure we will continue to enjoy looking through them for years to come.

The photographer is incredibly patient and professional, yet makes the session feel fun and natural -- no stiff poses, no "say cheese" nonsense. The photos themselves are amazing. Every shot captures genuine smiles and personality, whether it's a family session, a beach backdrop, or just everyday moments. You leave with images that look effortless but feel full of character. From start to finish, the experience is smooth and enjoyable. The staff make you feel comfortable, guide you through poses naturally, and ensure the end result is something you'll actually want to display. Highly recommend for anyone wanting professional photos without the awkwardness of a traditional studio.

I cannot emphasize enough the photographic skill and creativity of Richel Lavette. I recently…read morehosted a once-in-a-lifetime fraternity "Chartering" event that included both an early afternoon initiation, as well as a 190 person celebratory banquet including dinner, numerous guest speakers and awards to be presented. She handled both events professionally and with a great eye for framing, lighting and spontaneity. Richel Lavette is the consummate professional photographer. Her skill set includes image set up, proper lighting, images that tell a story, taking charge of large group photos with incredible tact, and looking for the small details that make a good image even better. Ms. Lavette can see what others do not. Her experience, and speed in finding the right images tell an unparalleled story. She requires initial input from the client, and once she understands the priorities, Richel can work independently with little to no supervision. But, beyond her obvious skills as a photographer, she has a strong work ethic and is always ready to capture a spontaneous moment that some photographers simply do not see. Her people skills are outstanding, and is always encouraging people to smile, and have fun while being photographed. Her greatest skills? The ability to listen, interpret, and deliver spectacular results. Lavette Photo Studios is an excellent photo studio, and I give Richel, and her studio my highest recommendations. She earned it.

In violation of my contract, Erin Mac cancelled my session…read more Before visiting FL, and flying my daughter in, I reached out and hired Erin Mac Photography. I signed a contract, paid a deposit and agreed to the early evening time slot that was suggested. Erin decided to cancel my session because I had not emailed her despite not being a requirement in the contract. We both agreed the weather has been an issue and I was waiting to reach out with a location after looking at the weather. She also had my phone number if she was truly concerned about my not keeping to the terms of the contract. Less than 24 hours before the agreed upon date and time, she cancelled the session and refunded me the deposit. I did share with her this was the most hateful thing that could be done as I do not live near my daughter and was so looking forward to a family photo session. There was no name calling or unkind behavior on anyone's part till she cancelled, then I sent one email. I have shared the emails and email thread to show I was not contacted **edit ** Once she shared I called her a monster, I did respond that it was not me. If someone else did, I did not want it confused with me. I am hurt as a mother, but I would not want to hurt anyone else with ugly names.

She got back to me very quickly - I was able to arrange the whole thing from across the country via emails, then texts with her. She made some suggestions for time of day and kept an eye on the weather. She was on time, and patient. She was fast! (It was so hot out!) But most importantly the pictures turned out so amazing. She even captured a beautiful moment of my parents laughing together which ended up being my favorite. I am so happy I found her. However my dad just could not understand who the old guy was in the photos. But that is his problem not Erin's. I recommend her 100%
