If you're on the fence about hiring Erin as your photographer, this is your sign to leap OVER the…read morefence and call her up immediately and book her ASAP. She is PHENOMENAL. Clearly, she is beyond talented and her photographs are the REAL DEAL. I mean heck, just look at her portfolio on her website as well as her IG. Erin's photos for you - no matter what you hire her for and no matter how big the project - will be just as high quality as the shots you see on her website. Absolutely first class. Erin is also an excellent communicator and really works closely with you. She digs into things to figure out EXACTLY what you want and need. I've used Erin a few times for business pictures (nutrition and fitness) and she made me extremely comfortable throughout the entire process. I'm not exactly a natural when it comes to standing in front of the camera, but she was able to pull SO many amazing shots out of me! She also thinks really outside of the box. She's creative. She's NOT going to give you some generic photos that you see everyone else use or have. You're going to get something UNIQUE. I swear, at the end of your photoshoot, not only will you have some awesome photos and memories, but you'll probably want to take Erin out for coffee every single week just to hang out. It helps to work with someone who is engaging, friendly, and encouraging.

Her easy going personality and great sense of humor will allow you to relax in front of the camera. She's simply one of the best people, and photographers I know.

Michelle is exceptionally talented and passionate about her artistry. When researching maternity…read moreand newborn photographers in San Diego, I stumbled across her work and immediately knew she was something special. Michelle has a signature style like no other...working with neutral and organic styling to make sure she can really capture the raw and true beauty of each client and special occasion. Her pieces are gorgeous! Michelle is beyond sweet, very easy and quick with communication, and treats her clients with undivided attention and care. She has a lovely wardrobe that you can borrow from for your photoshoot, and make-up artists that will ensure you look and feel beautiful. Her services really go above and beyond anything I would have ever imagined for a photographer. My husband and I absolutely love our maternity and newborn photos. They are not just photographs, but stunning pieces of art that captured cherished moments in this season of life. We can't thank Michelle enough for her incredible artistry and look forward to continuing to have her photograph our future family milestones. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for the most beautiful photographs in San Diego!

LOVED our maternity photo shoot! Michelle is very professional, personal & sweet!…read more She responded soon after I first contacted her. Since I was in my 3rd trimester of pregnancy, I was happy to see she made the whole photo shoot process so smooth. She had an awesome makeup & hair artist available that you could use & we had a consultation to go over the location, what I expected, & I got to try on various outfits to wear. That saved me time & money from finding an outfit(s) to wear. I asked to have a photo shoot in a location she had never shot before nor was it the type of place she usually shoots. It was awesome to hear she had went to the location before our photo shoot to find good spots. Photo shoots can feel awkward sometimes, but she really directed the shoot. She was efficient with our time & had poses for my husband & I to do. After the photo shoot, you meet with her again to choose your photo package & to see your photos for the 1st time. I honestly loved the entire shoot! She always adds a nice personal touch with how she presents her photos. I could tell she really cares about her clients & enjoys what she does. Will definitely use Michelle Popp Photography again for future photo shoots!

I needed headshots for my office's website and was told to submit 2-3. I looked to yelp and looked saw a brief sample of Laura's work. That was enough for me. She responded quickly and I was able to get it done that same day (before a holiday weekend I might add). The quote was more than reasonable. She has a wonderful studio with great lighting and was very good at conveying how I need to position myself. I always feel awkward taking photos and she did a great job making me feel relaxed. The finished project was amazing. I had trouble only selecting a few.These photos came out great for my clinic. I cannot recommend her any higher.

There is no way to fully quantify how wonderful Karen and Kevin are!…read more My brother and I wanted to do a session of family photography for my parents' 50th wedding anniversary this year and we were all going to be together (my wife and I live in CA) at Topsail for one week. I reached out to Karen on Monday and we had a session on Friday. One hour, fantastic setting, and great experience. I've only seen a handful of the photos she took and I can already tell they are mindblowingly great! Honestly, the best idea ever! Go to her website and look at what she can do. Get your family photos taken by Karen. You will not believe your eyes. Amazing work! Totally amazing!

The day/night of our shoot on the beach it was expected to rain and the weather couldn't make up it's mind. We kept in touch all the way up to the minute she arrived. I was seriously worried about the pictures and wanted them to be perfect. I do not know why I even bothered being worried. These pictures are AWESOME! We could not have asked for anything better to capture our amazing vacation memories we have on that beach. Don't hesitate when trying to choose a photographer. Do it!

The entire photo session took just under an hour, and the location was under the Oak Island pier to keep us out of the afternoon sun. The day was enjoyable and fast paced, and Chris let us suggest any poses we wanted! Only a few short days after the photo session, I was emailed a link to the pictures and a week later received the original files to download to my computer. While viewing the photos, there were some adjustments that could have been addressed during the actual photo session in regard to attention to detail (i.e. Squinty eyes, crazy hair, sunglasses on/off) that made me somewhat disappointed with the outcome of the photos. The day was enjoyable, and the less than stellar review is due to the minor mishaps in the photos that could have been addressed during the photo session.

Kym was very responsive, quick to provide reference photos to different areas as we were not locals and had never been on location before, and she helped pull off a seamless (almost) surprise proposal. I say almost because the weather did not want to cooperate. Obviously no fault of Kym's and she was extremely accommodating, offering to change the date to a better weather day. However we were too deep and afraid my sister would catch on if we switched days. The weather was in fact subpar, and Kym was so amazing that she offered to come back out the next day and continue the shoot to try and get better photos. Can't recommend her enough, we would absolutely hire her again! Thank you again for everything Kym!!
