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.

I've also shot boudoir with other photographers and while they're good, they just don't compare to Annika. She helps pose you in ways that make you look so good.

It can be a very intimidating thing to take the chance on a shoot like this but with Annika you don't have to feel that way! It's not scary at all!

So bad that I couldn't deal with looking at for 10 years - let alone showing other countries' customs agents everytime I travel. The real likelihood that my photos would get rejected as well made me decide to see about getting a professional photographer to take them. I didn't even care about cost at that point - I just wanted pictures that met the requirements and looked like me. Kevin was quick to reply to my emails about his studio services and suggested I made an appointment which I did for the following afternoon. I showed up at my appointment time, Kevin let me in and apologized for finishing up with a walk-in. No big deal. After only about 2-3 minutes he was ready for me. Let me check myself in a floor mirror first, walked me into his studio, made me feel at ease with his personable and relaxed photog chat got a few shots done in less than 3 minutes. We looked at them and selected the best one - honestly except for the one I shut my eyes on all of them were very good. He printed them, I paid him. Chatted a couple minutes and I was out the door with great passport and CCW photos. The price was almost identical to Walgreens and I looked like me - not an angry old woman with raccoon eyes and a chip on her shoulder (not even close to what I look like in real life!). I was so happy I've showed everyone my photo and everyone is jealous they didn't think of that for theirs! Lol. I will definitely recommend Kevin Newsome Studios for your passport, visa, permit photos - don't try to be slick and go for A cheapy place that doesn't know their stuff and risk hating your photos or worse having them rejected by the State Department. Call Kevin, get a pro to take them - you will be as happy as I am. I may even be calling him soon for portrait session. OUTSTANDING PROFESSIONAL & ARTIST.
