Out of the 30 photos I was given the opportunity to choose from, I found only 5 I really liked. When I asked what happened to some of the others (my dog running) I wasn't given any response at all. I was told I could order a metal print or receive a $50 gift certificate to order prints online I told Kira which photos I wanted and haven't heard back from her (that was October 19). Kira is unresponsive and I haven't had a good experience. Maybe I wasn't treated the same as everyone else b/c they paid full price, I don't know. What I do know is that I wouldn't recommend her to anyone and feel that as a beginning photographer, I could have taken photos that were just as good. Totally disappointed.

I agreed to let Kira take pictures of my dog for her Project Dog book and drove my dog to the site she selected in San Francisco. After an hour, I was supposed to receive the pictures from the photo shoot in return for her use of my dog's photos for the book. This photo shoot took place in May 2011. I have not received ANY photos from the photographer. Secondly, in August 2011 I paid $50 for her Kickstarter campaign for this Project Dog book. For this money, I was to receive one of the Project Dog books. It is now April 2012 and I have not yet received a book. I am also apparently not important enough to have the photographer return my phone calls or emails. I am incredibly disappointed with the service. That being said, the one blooper I was able to pull off of the facebook page for Nuena photography was cute. It's good that it was because it is the only one I have received in almost a year. She seems to have time to take vacations to Hawaii (July 2011) and take road trips across the country for other projects, but does not have time to make good on her word once she has what she needs or to return communications from someone who has now used their personal time and money to help her profit. I am incredibly disappointed. I almost forgot to mention that she volunteered to take some photos at a non-profit event in 2011. Yes, she volunteered but I was on the committee and as far as I know, she never turned over any of the pictures she took to anyone on the committee for future non-profit use. Seems counterproductive to volunteering for an organization to not help them out at all from your time spent there. It amounts more to not having to pay for the vendor price for a table and yet still getting some free exposure and advertising time. For shame.

From the moment we arrived, she made us feel completely comfortable and at ease. Heather was incredibly patient, gentle, and so skilled at handling our baby--which made a huge difference for us as new parents. Her studio was warm, calm, and perfectly set up for newborns, with thoughtful props and beautiful backdrops. She has a true eye for detail and captured the sweetest little expressions and moments that we'll treasure forever. What impressed me most was how professional yet personable she was--taking the time to work around our baby's needs while still creating stunning, high-quality photos. The final images are absolutely breathtaking, and I know we'll cherish them for a lifetime. If you're looking for someone talented, caring, and professional to capture your newborn's earliest days, I highly recommend Heather!

She worked very closely with us in selecting a flattering color palette and introducing textures that would suit the baby. Her style is very gentle and easygoing; she spends the time to really get to know a family and pays attention to all the details that go into a shoot. When the photos came out, we were truly blown away--they were all so tender and stunning, showcasing not just the miracle of birth, but all the familial love and tenderness. I cannot stop looking at them! We were so delighted that we opted for an album keepsake. I was impressed with how much care and time Heather took making every page perfect, and how she collaborated so well with us. My son is an amateur artist, and she welcomed and integrated all his inputs and built on top of them to create something we will treasure for many years. I wholeheartedly recommend Heather to any family--she is a true artist, and we will definitely be returning to capture more precious moments!

I actually found Jennifer after searching online for photographers in San Francisco and her work immediately stood out. Her style felt fresh and unconventional -- more documentary and journalistic than traditional -- and I especially loved her use of black and white photography, which was a big reason we chose her. The day started at our hotel, where she jumped between our separate rooms to capture my wife and me getting ready. Before she had even gotten to our rooms, she had already scouted the perfect location for our first look. The moment was absolutely incredible, and she handled everything; we didn't have to do a thing but follow her lead. That professional confidence continued at City Hall. She has a masterful familiarity with the building. She took full control of the shoot, guiding us as she told us exactly where to stand, how to pose, and where to move next so we could just relax and enjoy the moment. As a photographer myself, I really appreciated her confidence and professionalism. All we had to do was follow instructions and be present. She knows San Francisco City Hall inside and out -- the lighting, the angles, the timing, and the key locations that truly matter -- every shot felt deliberate and it showed. The technical skill here is top-notch-- the compositions were beautiful, the balance of each frame was spot-on, and her gorgeous color grading. We received around 300 images, and the quality is so consistent that I plan to print every last one of them in large format to ensure we have a permanent physical archive. When we received the final package, we were so touched -- she sent our photos on a beautiful USB drive along with printed images, some sweets, and other thoughtful details. It was the perfect finishing touch to a genuinely wonderful experience. If you're getting married at City Hall -- or anywhere in San Francisco -- Jennifer Michelson / A Girl and a Camera is exceptional. Thank you Jennifer! Laura and Junior.

We can't recommend Jennifer highly enough!

We worked with Alina by sharing our preferred photo spots and some inspo photos to communicate a "vibe" we liked. Alina offered some great new ideas, too. On the wedding day, Alina managed to capture the magic of all the details -- candid shots of our friends and family, snapshots of the venue and florals, and more. We had such a blast looking at the album; it was like reliving the day! The true joy, however, was sharing our photos with our family. They shared that the pictures were show-stopping and have repeatedly asked for prints for themselves! (Lots of, "and your photographer was just incredible, truly.") They cannot believe how spectacular our photos turned out, and we have to agree. Our jaws were on the floor looking through the album! Shooting with Alina was comfortable, too. She is such a sweet soul and I only hope I have a chance to work with her again in the future! Thanks, Alina, for capturing our special day -- so glad we can return to these pictures to remember it!
