I met Debi through a friend and ended up visiting her art studio in San Francisco. I was…read moreimmediately inspired by her pencil portrait work, so I decided to ask if I could commission a drawing made for my adorable grandparents. I had a nice photo that was taken of them many years ago, and Debi truly brought it to life. I couldn't believe how realistic the portraits were when she was done. It captured them so well, and was more life-like than the original photo. It's so nicely detailed, with a sparkle in their eyes - I absolutely love it. Every time I see this illustration hanging in their den it makes me happy I went to Debi's studio that day, because it inspired a unique gift that surprised my whole family for Christmas and immortalized the people I care about the most.

My wife absolutely loves it and got tears in her eyes when she first saw it. It was a black and white oil painting, her first of this particular style. Deb is not only excellent at her skill; she is extremely efficient and was a JOY to work with when discussing the commission. This portrait will be something my wife and I will treasure forever. Thank you, Deb!

I cannot say enough amazing things about Marcela at Lemonshoots. From the beginning, Marcela has…read morebeen incredible to work with. She responded quickly to my initial request and immediately made me feel seen, heard, and valued. I love how thoughtful and intentional she was throughout each step of her process. She made both my partner and I feel comfortable and we loved working with her for our newborn shoot. She took her time and was amazing with our 6-week-old son and captured the most beautiful and precious moments. We are excited to continue working with Marcela as our son grows up and highly recommend Marcela to anyone looking to capture pure, meaningful moments with their little ones. I wish I had found Marcela sooner as I would have worked with her for a maternity shoot as well - she made me feel beautiful and I cannot thank her enough for being such a light in our lives.

Marcela is an amazing photographer. She is a true artist, who is warm empathetic, and thoughtful…read morewhile still being incredibly detail-oriented and professional. We went to her for our son's newborn session last year. We were still coming out of pandemic mode and were so worried about taking baby anywhere, especially with him being so small and vulnerable. Working with Marcela, our anxiety melted away completely. Her studio shoot was just her and the hair and makeup person she recommended. She was happy to mask, hand sanitize, etc. and the whole experience from consultation, photo session, and ordering, to product pickup was very smooth. As first-time parents, it was the one of the first times since our son was born that we actually felt relaxed. Marcela has such a calming presence and she is so professional and SO, SO good with babies -- a true baby whisperer. She was patient and kind with us wrangling, the baby, us and our pups Curtis and Daisy with ease. Our photos turned out beautifully and we were so happy with the outcome and our overall experience that we went back recently for our 1-year milestone photos. Highly recommend!

Corinne did two phenomenal things over at my place. First, she chose the paint color for my…read moreliving-dining-kitchen, reconciling about six completely incompatible color elements with a subtle color that makes me SO HAPPY. Absolutely brilliant. I sometimes just sit and stare at the walls in bliss. Bonus: the color toned down the countertops I really, really don't love but can't replace. Did I say absolutely brilliant? Second, she painted a wonderful tree mural in my office, balancing my fantasies with the inspiration photos. That tree is my company and joy. I can't resist showing it off to everyone who comes in my house. Reasonable prices, reasonable speed, excellent customer service. Hire Corinne and let her do her thing. Fabulous.

Sharon is a really great artist! Her work is vibrant and full of skill. I love it!…read more Her service is about average when it comes to friendliness, cleanliness, and execution. What I did appreciate is her promptness, easy communication and easy booking process, and her professionalism. Pricing wise, she's a tad bit more affordable than other artists around the area.
