This unique combination made for an exceptionally successful fall photo session for my family. The photos that she took are very well composed. They highlight the beauty of the setting we selected (the San Juan Capistrano Mission), while still keeping our the family as the focus of the photos. The processing done to the digit photos is also excellent. She has both an artistic eye, and the skill to bring out the best in each photo. Chenin immediately connected with both of my daughters (ages 12 and 6), making them feel completely comfortable. She was quick and flexible, which kept my two girls happy during our entire photo session. Happy kids = good photos! I can't say enough good things about my experience with Chenin. I HIGHLY recommend her, and will be having her take my family photos from here on out!

Laura has an incredible gift for capturing authentic, joyful moments, and we will only use her for family photos from now on.

Unfortunately this was the most horrible experience I have ever had with a photographer. We were…read moresuper excited to book with her in hopes of some amazing headshots. I have two children in the industry and we needed updated headshots. First the price is average as expected from a CA photographer. However the ad-ons are insane. We opted out of the hair and makeup since we are pretty proficient in doing our own. We also opted out of the $150-200 outfit consultation per outfit as well. We are pretty good with styling as well. We arrived to our session 2 hours early in the hotel so we could do our own hair and makeup which is fine. However our booking time was 5pm and they knew we were there and did not even come to get us till 5:30. I saw another girl go in the elevator that went up at 5pm. Knowing she probably paid for hair and makeup. Since we did not pay $1500 or more for ad ons we were treated horrible. Come to find out Lilly's daughter is the hair and makeup artist. We paid the basic package $599 per child for 1 hour of service. PACKAGE 1 - Headshot Session (Approximately 60min) * Commercial * Theatrical * Print Headshot 2 Looks 5 Final hi-res RETOUCHED images (It includes two adjustments/editing requests) + Approximately 100 print ready downloadable photos (proofs) We finally got in the room she had a black curtain hung and she took approximately seven minutes per girl. She held the shutter down on her camera moved it left and right and took 300 photos on each look in 2-3 minutes. So we paid $1200 for 14 minute session in front of a black curtain with the exact same pose for each girl. That's 14 min session for 2 girls. Bottom line you have to pay for the one million ad-ons if you want decent service from her and the photos are crap. She captured both my kids with dark brunette hair since the lighting was so dark in the room with the black curtains. I have an auburn haired girl and dirty blond. So basically they can't book a single job with these photos. This money was poured down the drain. Also my friend bought the clothing ad-ons and the items are purchased from target and old navy and she didn't even get to keep them! Do not use her unless you plan to dump $1200 or more in her pocket and she gets lucky with a few good photos. Her lighting technique is not even good.

We stopped by on a weekday in the late afternoon and practically had the place to ourselves. Another family arrived shortly after, but it was still very relaxed and easygoing. The process was super simple. You can make a reservation, but we just walked in without any issues. We did the white background setup for 15 minutes, which was perfect and definitely a must if you're taking photos with little kids. There were a few technical difficulties during our session, but the staff member was incredibly accommodating. He paused the timer and gave us those minutes back so we didn't lose any of our shoot time. The pricing is great too! The package includes 2 people and 3 printed 4x6 photos of your favorite shots. Additional people are only $5 each, but they didn't charge us for our toddler or newborn, which was such a nice surprise. One of the best parts is that you get access to download every single digital photo from your session, not just a select few. Overall, we had a wonderful experience and ended up with so many great family photos. definitely considering coming back for another shoot

Recently my US passport needed to be renewed so this photo studio was one of the few places that…read morestill open on Sundays after 4 PM. The photo studio is located inside AR Galleria (the main galleria entrance was locked on Sunday afternoon so I had to enter through the side door via Cafe Lowell). [Parking]: Easy and free parking in the large plaza. [Reservation]: I was able to call and book a same-day reservation on Sunday. Visitors can also make an online reservation via the studio's website. Upon arrival, I scanned a QR code and signed a waiver before the owner started my 5-minute photo session. [Price]: $27 for 4 physical copies and digital copies to download via email (must be downloaded within 7 days). I did not initially receive an email, but I emailed the owner the next day about the download link and he sent a follow-up email with the link within a few hours (the email was hidden in my spam folder). The email included all the pictures taken during the session. The shop also makes photo keychains ($4+ each). The studio also offers 15-minute and 30-minute self-portrait sessions. [Studio]: While I was here for a passport photo, the studio mainly operates as a self-portrait studio where customers take photos of themselves. This small studio has all the props and camera setup needed to make it happen. [Process]: The owner had me sit on a chair and took 7 pictures. Out of the 7 pictures taken, I was able to choose one for him to print while the rest of pictures can be downloaded via a link in an email. It was more important to receive a digital copy because the US passport renewal process requires applicants to upload a digital photo rather than submit a physical copy. I was able to use one of the digital copies and now that same picture will be on my passport for the next 10 years before the next renewal timeline. [Conclusion]: Overall it was an efficient process and I was able to walk in and out within 15 minutes. However, it would be helpful for the studio to provide additional entry instructions on the website when the main galleria entrance is locked.
