She can work with your ideas, consult on new ideas, and/or do a combo of both. I recently did professional head shots with her, and am really happy with the results.

I had two photographers from the emilie inc. team and they did a FANTASTIC job at our wedding! I…read morewas confident based on the portfolios I had seen, and they delivered. I love the style and how well they blended the natural environment and elements of our venue into the shots. There's a great balance between the details and the documentary style shots, and candid portraits of the wedding party and guests. Leading up to the wedding, we had no problem getting our questions answered and paying through their online invoicing system. We were able to visit the office and meet our photographers ahead of time and the whole experience was wonderful. We were welcomed with warmth and cupcakes! They pay attention to the details of the whole experience. This is a top-notch company. I had two disappointments (which is the reason why I didn't give a 5-star review. It would be 4.5 if I could!). The first is that photog team did not set up any fill lights for the formal portraits. I should have asked about this ahead of time, but I thought it was standard for professional portraits. At least at every wedding I have been to, there were a few diffusers or flashes set up even if the shooters were photojournalism/documentary style wedding photographers. The faces and eye sockets are more shadowed than I would have hoped. Also, in retrospect, we weren't getting any fun alternate angles for the group portraits, like looking over our shoulders, holding out our bouquets, holding hands, or moving to have a different background such as the lake in addition to having trees as the background. Alas! The second disappointment is that despite two photogs being there for over an hour while there was live music at our reception, we didn't receive a single image of the amazing seven-piece band in action. I would definitely recommend emilie inc. - just make sure you communicate about exactly what your expectations are ahead of time. Once the wedding schedule gets rolling, it is hard to remember your photography wish list. There are more important things to focus on, like being present for your loved ones and celebration! :)

Finding the right photographer you can rely on to capture the essence and beauty of a wedding can be a stressful task for any bride. That is why I set out to select a photographer as one of my first tasks after getting engaged. I am very fortunate to know a lot of wonderful wedding photographers but felt the best connection to Emilie. I knew from the beginning that we were in good hands. Emilie even called to talk to me about my vision for the wedding on her family vacation to Disney! She works masterfully with angles and lighting to capture moments in the most creative and elegant ways possible. We loved the way she interacted with us and our guests to make us all feel comfortable and at ease throughout the ceremony and reception. Emilie captures emotion at its purest and most candid moments, so that when you look back, you can easily relive those precious memories. Emilie definitely helped make our day feel even more special, and we're so incredibly happy with our choice of selecting her as our photographer to capture one of the most important days of our lives. We supremely recommend her!

Best Fresh Photographer for Intimate New Hope, PA Weddings!…read more We had the pleasure of working with Kasey Ivan Photography for our wedding in New Hope, PA. When we set out looking for someone, we were overwhelmed because honestly it's not every day that you think about how you would like to be photographed and then have to put it into words. We weren't going traditional; we had an intimate outdoor wedding at a B&B with a rustic and simple elegance. We knew what we didn't want, the "standard wedding photographer"... someone that churns out the same photo for every couple and then upsells them the standard coffee table book. From there we figured out that what was important to us. We wanted someone with a fresh eye. My fiance came across his website after a LOT of searching and it had a refreshing feel to it. Kasey's photos captured actual emotion. We met Kasey in person and he was genuinely passionate about what he did and was interested in our story. When he said that the more involved with our love story he was, the more emotion he could put into the photography. SOLD. He asked us lots of questions. We talked for a while and by the time we left we wanted to hire someone else...so we could INVITE HIM AS A GUEST! He was a great listener, answered our questions, referred a videographer and makeup artist, AND his fees were much more realistic than many of the other outfits. There was no way we were going to pay several thousands of dollars for a photographer's assistant that we haven't met, to come follow us around for 8 hours. And the bonus was that he didn't try to force a printed book on us. He was perfectly fine with giving the electronic files. We decided to do a First Look session before the ceremony for many reasons. At first, I was against it because I wanted to be able to see his face for the first time as I walked down the aisle. Kasey suggested that I could walk up to my fiance while his back was turned and tap him on the shoulder. That way he wouldn't actually see me walking up to him. This made ALL the difference in the world and now we are so glad we did it. I can't even express how important, peaceful and meaningful that time was. We were able to stare at each other, feel the emotion, take the time to connect privately...(while being photographed and filmed). I learned later that Kasey even helped my fiancé put on his cufflinks. What an amazing individual. Anyway, even if his photos sucked we would still give him great reviews, but we got our USB drives and finally had the time to go through them. They were exactly what we asked for; we got amazing shots full of emotion from the First Look, breathtaking posed shots around the barn and property, and then the "not posed" action shots we wanted...unscripted real life. There are some awful shots of people's faces, but that's what happens in real life. I'm grateful he didn't remove those because we wanted to see it all! And just to top it off, towards the end of the night we asked him to join us on the dance floor. He was so much fun and danced a jig...or maybe it was moshing, not sure...but it was late. He fit right in and that's what kind of photographer we wanted. Thank you Kasey!

My husband and I wholeheartedly put our trust in Haley Hallee Photos to capture one of the most…read moreimportant days in our lives, our wedding day. Not only did we invest our trust in Haley Hallee, but our money as well. With that said, we have had a very unfortunate situation occur that everyone should be aware of in case they're considering her services. We have received an incomplete, untouched gallery. After reaching out to Haley constantly she is not responding but most importantly not resolving the issue of our wedding gallery. We feel extremely uncomfortable to have to continuously reach out to seek rectitude for the lack of quality we received in our final wedding gallery. The current gallery consists of untouched formal family photos with closed eyes, multiple duplicates, and many missing moments from our day. I want to acknowledge that we are extremely understanding that life happens. We are parents to a toddler with another little one on the way. We mourned the loss of a grandparent shortly after the wedding. So, we know everyone has personal things going on. However, Haley was under contract to take photos and edit them in a professional manner that matches her portfolio displayed to the world and we received the opposite of that. Again, we have repeatedly reached out asking for reassurance or any communication for that matter that we will, in fact, receive the photos that tell the story of our wedding day. It was in our contract that we had 7 days to notify Haley of any concerns or requests after the initial portfolio upload and we did so within 3 days. Yet, our portfolio is still incomplete today. We can't get this day back, we can't get these memories back and all we are looking for is professionalism, and for Haley to make this right. Recently, her husband Mitchell Hallee took the liberty to add a handful of photos to our album with a different editing style without any acknowledgment of what we had requested. Her husband also mentioned a small refund to our account which only covers our gratuity and nothing of the actual cost of her service. This does not amount to the contracted job she was paid for and they do not have the banking information to make this refund and have made no effort to attain it. We hired Haley for this job therefore, we expect her to at least work with us. It is also important to note that we paid for there to be a second photographer which was not provided despite it being part of the contract. I am writing this to spread awareness of this incredibly unfortunate and disheartening situation. Over these past 6 months I have found a community who share the same experience. My heart goes out to all the brides that never received their special moments.

Her photos are beautiful and we felt she really captured our son's little personality. We opted to have a folio box made and are so pleased with it. It's great to have matted photos all ready to display so we can keep them in rotation. We look forward to working with her again as our son grows.
