I wanted to have some nice senior pictures done for my graduating high school senior. You know how…read moreyou sometimes see gorgeous family photos on Facebook and would love to hire that photographer? Well, I private messaged and emailed one such photographer and she never even bothered to respond! Discouraged, I turned to my old friend Yelp, and Ashley Blake caught my eye. Great reviews, nice looking photos- and wouldn't you know, she responded within the hour. From that point on everything was wonderful. Ashley does a great job communicating with you. I paid a partial deposit and we worked out a meeting spot and photo location. Ashley comes prepared with all of her equipment, and an artistic eye for nice backdrops. Asking an 18 year old boy to pose for an hour is a tall order, but she's so friendly and chill my son complied! We had a rare cold snap the day before our appointment and Ashley gave me the choice to reschedule if I preferred. This is turning into a long review, but what I'm trying to say is that she's terrific! I'm so glad I found Ashley and would recommend her to anyone.

It is good to research and locate a photographer that understands and has a style that matches what you're looking for. Mostly due to Matthew P.'s Yelp review and the work on her website convinced us that Ashley was the one. Ashley was easy to work with, flexible and friendly! We are pleased with the photos of our senior graduate!

I reached out to Heather @oneshotbeyondphotography. She was able to accommodate me right away and was extremely professional. I had some questions about the contract, which she responded to and clarified immediately. She even made some adjustments to accommodate my needs. She was prompt and on time, and from the moment I walked in, made me feel at ease. I am not photogenic, but somehow she managed to make me look good! She returned the digital files to me within 24 hours! I highly recommend!

Heather has photographed my annual family photos for the past 8 years. My kids love her so it is…read moreeasy for her to get perfect smiles out of them every year. Heather is delightful. She is quick to respond and book dates with, she has a quick turnaround time compared to other photographers we've used in the past, and she is up for any idea I throw at her during the shoot. Heather is experienced so she knows the great poses, but she is also very open if I want to add props, switch poses, try something new with the kids, etc. this is great because she never makes us feel rushed or "only one pose" which gives us a variety to choose from every year for our Christmas cards. Heather is amazing and I would highly recommend One Shot Beyond for all your family sessions.

We had never considered a doula for the birth of our daughter but my midwife recommended we think…read moreabout it suggested we try a doula-photographer. She recommended Rivkah and my husband and I couldn't be happier with the decision! As a doula Rivkah had several prenatal and postpartum visits with us and went over everything from birthing positions, breastfeeding, emotional support, tips for my husband, and so much more. She was available via phone and text for all my questions and checked in with us regularly. As photographer she was superb! Having someone take such intimate photos as those that occur during childbirth can be intimidating but Rivkah made me feel so comfortable that I honestly didn't realize she was there for the majority of the time (with the shots she got it's hard to imagine!). The images she captured perfectly reflected the intensity, power, and intimacy of those hours. I highly recommend her and look forward to working with her again in the future.

WOW! Let's just start with wow. Rivkah is amazing! I had never had professional photo's done for…read moreour family of 7, yes 7 ! And Rivkah was more than enthusiastic to work with us. From scheduling, to the actual shoot Rivkah was sweet, professional and extremely patient. Rivkah picked two beautiful locations that were the perfect setting for our active family. My son climbed trees and my daugters picked flowers while she quietly took photos and captured these precious moments. I just got a sneek peak at some of our photos and I'm just over the moon happy happy happy with the photos thus far. My kids are forever friends with Rivkah and my one daughter even refused to move photo locations unless she was holding Rivkahs hand, also known to my kids as "lollipop"! :) If you want someone who will treat you like family, who will work with your family even when your kiddos get cranky and uncooperative, Self Image Photography is absolutely who you want! With Rivkah you are getting a kind, knowledgeable, artistic photographer who know's the mommy struggle is real and helps you capture some pretty amazing moments with her magical camera. I can't say enough about Self Image Photography, if you're even kind of considering getting a family photo or photos of your children done just book with Rivkah you absolutely won't be disappointed.

I took an intro to photography class here and it was great. Dean took us through all the basics of…read morethe settings on each camera, ranging from Program to aperature and shutter priority to white balance to discussing lenses, flash, and equipment like tripods. The class is quite long so be prepared - and eat before because I didn't and I was starving! There were about 12 people in my class so it does take some time since he helps each person find each thing on their prospective camera and everyone has different settings. I wasn't a beginner beginner taking this class (have already been shooting on Aperture priority) but it definitely helped me understand more about settings I was already using. This is a good class if you're brand new to a camera, but also if you've been shooting for a while but mostly on auto.

Her work is beautiful and romantic. Her service was great, from beginning to end, she made me feel very special. Our engagement photos in Sedona and our wedding photos are amazing!!!

She took some pictures at…read morea school event and I thought they turned out really well so we decided to hire her for our engagement pictures. We went out and found some great Arizona scenery and Trisha worked her magic. Our session was so fun and we laughed the whole time! The pictures turned out amazing and we ordered over a ton of photos. I knew I had to have her for my New Years 2016 wedding. Trisha flew to Kansas where my family lives to be there for our special day. She arrived just in time to photograph some great pictures of me and my girlfriends getting ready and just got to work photographing absolutely every detail of my wedding. She was so fast and professional, but so much fun at the same time. Trisha never made me feel rushed or pressured. Everything felt like it went so smoothly and even if we got a little off schedule Trisha made it not big deal. We worked around any snags in the timeline and she was quick on her feet and found other things to photograph. She was amazing! My friends said she was so sweet and they really enjoyed getting to know her and they had fun taking pictures. Trisha photographed everything and we had almost 1,000 pictures before the ceremony even started. Everything went perfectly. A few days later we got to see some sneak peaks of the day and I loved every picture she posted on her blog. We cannot wait to get our entire album because we are so ready to order pictures. Trisha's prints are also much cheaper than other photographers so ordering tons of pictures won't break the bank! I cannot recommend Trisha enough! She is fun, sweet, and extremely talented and she captured our wedding day perfectly!
