Update: Tina the owner and photographer reached out to me…read moreabout my review. She didn't realized my disappointment and she wanted to know what it would take to make things better. We spent a few days going back and forth discussing what went wrong with my color selections. In the end she edited the 2 white background photos to the grey color I preferred and she edited grey from all the others as well. Unfortunately it's been well over 2 years so the extra pics I wanted to go through have been long deleted but she offered to refund me for the extra prints I had paid for which I think is very fair.

After scrolling through photos on my phone, I realized that I never properly thanked an awesome…read morephotographer, so I mean to correct my mistake. My sincerest apologies to Tina! You deserve every bit of love, appreciation and credit for capturing my niece's beauty. My family swooned over the photos, and my sister especially appreciated how great you were to them both back in May. Before my sister gave birth back in May, she brought up the idea of having newborn photos done for her firstborn. Of course I scouted Yelp's pages thanks to other trustworthy Yelpers, Christina Mae was a top result. It also helped that she had an Instagram page, which solidified her as a top contender to reach out to. It honestly came down to communication - Tina was the most personable to correspond with, which is hard through email (I was arranging this gift from Vegas). The ease of payment was also very much appreciated (via PayPal) with the option to add more later, and her website's info on a variety of packages and prices was transparent. The same week my niece was born, my sister was able to contact Tina and schedule the newborn photo sessions within several days. Awesome flexibility. I distinctly remember my sister telling me how calming the setting was when she went for the photos, and she was definitely appreciative of that atmosphere considering how hectic things were for her beforehand. Within 1-2 weeks, my sister gets an electronic photo album to select her favorites from to purchase prints or downloads. We obviously loved all the photos she took! The quality of the photos were amazing! She captured my niece's sassy princess attitude that's been developing since then XD LOL. I should also note that our parents made my sister purchase additional photos outside of the initial gifted package amount. It's the excitement of my niece and the testament to the quality of Tina's work.

Anastasiya is a very kind hearted and courteous photographer to work with. I was referred to her…read morefrom a very dear friend of mine. Shortly after booking my Autum photo shoot with Anastasiya, she contacted me right away. She asked me all the questions... What my vision was for the photo shoot,; backdrops, styling, wardrobe etc. she took the time to get to know me, and assured me that she would capture something memorable. At this point, I felt at ease working with her. On the day of the photo shoot, meeting her for the first time, was like meeting an old friend. Anastasiya is a ROCKSTAR! The photo shoot was so much fun! She made everything comfortable and took many, many photos! Her turnaround time was very quick. She sent me a couple teasers at first, then sent me a link to view all the photos that same week. They turned out awesome. She listened to me, she knew what I wanted, and she captured it. I reached out to her recently for a real estate staging project. Regardless of bad rainy weather, she came through! The photos she took turned out absolutely beautiful. I'm so happy to know Anastasiya. I support women owned businesses. I highly recommend her to my YELP! Community.

I finally decided to book a session for my 4 year old son when he missed his school photos at preschool. Sarah made the whole process SO easy. She's so approachable and her response time was amazing. I suggested a couple of venues and she checked them out before our shoot to familiarize herself with the locale. My son was at ease while I hid behind a pillar (allow her to do her job without me interfering) and the results were amazing. Her website is easy to navigate and her "eye" captures awesome moments. She's quick on her feet and is ready for anything. The disk was promptly received and the images were wonderful. Thanks to her artistic talent, we will have memories forever. As you can see from my Yelp history, I rarely give out 5 stars. I had NO hesitation to give 5 stars. Talented photographer? Check. Easy to navigate website? Check. Smooth process from beginning to end? Check. If you're looking for a full or mini session, Sarah Barr is the photographer for you. You won't be disappointed!

We felt we could rely on her and trust her and when we saw our photos for the first time we knew she had gone above and beyond anything we could've asked for.

She helped guide us through potential locations and graciously rescheduled when rain impacted our original shoot date. Loewyn has a lovely, calm demeanor which put my daughter at ease right away.

Loewyn has a real eye for light, color and setting that shines through in the final product. Great experience and reasonably priced for the excellent quality of work.

The photographer was so rude to my 5 year old saying things like " you're wasting Santa's time" and "did you have to bring the letter". There was nothing magical about this. My child asked if Santa didn't like him after we left. I am appaled that other adults that are supposed to be bringing cheer ( that we paid $60 for and waited in a 4 hour que for) treated my son like this. I am not one to leave nasty reviews, but this was horrible. On top of it all we paid $43 for the digital download and it's not working. The lady said "it's because our website is powered by Amazon and it's down tonight". Why wouldn't you tell me that before I purchased the digital download? The only nice person at this event was the person letting people in outside the event and the scone workers. Do NOT waste your money or your time. Merry Christmas to this tired mom who now has to convince her 5 year old of the magic of Christmas after he was treated so poorly by Santa and his less than jolly workers.

He was very professional but also funny and very good at directing us and suggesting locations for us to get our photos taken. He made the whole process feel fun and relatively easy. We eloped on Mt.

We were very pleased with the finished product too. He got the photos back to us in a very reasonable amount of time and they are very beautiful! We couldn't be happier with his services.

I live in California but she said Tami was totally worth visiting for, so I planned an entire family trip around this photo shoot. I had low expectations because the other photographers I've used for engagement, wedding, and other family photos were either not professional, not on time, or didn't have great photos. Tami was AMAZING from the get go. I reached out to her via email and she responded promptly and with lots of info and examples. Fast forward to our trip, on my way out to her studio my 20 month old had an insane allergic reaction to a snack I gave him and he was covered in hives and difficulty breathing. I was 2 mins away from Tami's studio, and was alone at the time with no cell service, so I rushed to her house and she totally calmed me down as I was freaking out because I was so worried about my toddler. She was so kind, patient, and caring. She didn't rush us or anything. My toddler ended up being fine, and she got him to go from crying and breaking down to calm and playful. He's also insanely shy and she actually got him out of his shell. Her photos are sooo wonderful and they were above and beyond anything I ever expected. Thank you Tami for being such a wonderful resource. She was totally worth the trip to Washington.
