The photographer is incredibly patient and professional, yet makes the session feel fun and natural -- no stiff poses, no "say cheese" nonsense. The photos themselves are amazing. Every shot captures genuine smiles and personality, whether it's a family session, a beach backdrop, or just everyday moments. You leave with images that look effortless but feel full of character. From start to finish, the experience is smooth and enjoyable. The staff make you feel comfortable, guide you through poses naturally, and ensure the end result is something you'll actually want to display. Highly recommend for anyone wanting professional photos without the awkwardness of a traditional studio.

I cannot emphasize enough the photographic skill and creativity of Richel Lavette. I recently…read morehosted a once-in-a-lifetime fraternity "Chartering" event that included both an early afternoon initiation, as well as a 190 person celebratory banquet including dinner, numerous guest speakers and awards to be presented. She handled both events professionally and with a great eye for framing, lighting and spontaneity. Richel Lavette is the consummate professional photographer. Her skill set includes image set up, proper lighting, images that tell a story, taking charge of large group photos with incredible tact, and looking for the small details that make a good image even better. Ms. Lavette can see what others do not. Her experience, and speed in finding the right images tell an unparalleled story. She requires initial input from the client, and once she understands the priorities, Richel can work independently with little to no supervision. But, beyond her obvious skills as a photographer, she has a strong work ethic and is always ready to capture a spontaneous moment that some photographers simply do not see. Her people skills are outstanding, and is always encouraging people to smile, and have fun while being photographed. Her greatest skills? The ability to listen, interpret, and deliver spectacular results. Lavette Photo Studios is an excellent photo studio, and I give Richel, and her studio my highest recommendations. She earned it.

We had our own ideas, and although Stephanie was willing to accommodate, she strongly suggested an alternate, yet very beautiful, location which turned out to be much cooler, excellent lighting, and truly just wonderful back drop. Like my daughter said, she's the expert. She knows better. Listen to her, you will be grateful later. We are very pleased with out photos. She is quite reasonable. We definitely would consider her for our next photo shoot needs. Maybe the fall, in our alternate location. Thank you Stephanie for your wonderful communication, patience, and fun shoot.

Nina was spot on with her directions and ideas for posing. She made everyone so comfortable with having their photos taken, everything looked very naturally beautiful and not forced at all.

She is a true professional who produces quality results.

I've booked Travis for years now and can say with confidence that he is great at what he does! I've worked with Travis for pregnancy, newborn, and wedding photos: Pregnancy Photos - I was super nervous about this one. Big bare bump photos just aren't my style but I did really want to capture my pregnancy. Travis knew just what to do! He suggested we meet up downtown and took some great photos of my husband and I as we wandered from Tampa Theater past Sacred Heart and around to Curtis Hixon Park. We ended the shoot with sunset over University of Tampa which Travis timed perfectly. He was professional and fun to work with. He knew his stuff and arrived downtown before us to scout out the path. Our photos turned out great! So of course, we called him again when my son was born! Newborn Photos - Travis came to our house a few days after my son was born. He set up some lighting in the nursery and got to work while the baby hung out. After a while my son fell asleep but Travis didn't mind at all - it made it even easier to pose our little model. He captured all the little details I want to remember forever and even fit in a few family photos for us. These are images that I know we'll look back on for decades to come and it was important that they were done well. We couldn't have been more impressed with Travis and his work! Which is why I recommended Travis to my best friend to photograph her wedding... Wedding Photos - Travis was great to interact with throughout the day. He made sure to capture everything the bride requested and suggested a few extra things too. His photos turned out absolutely beautiful and he captured some gorgeous candid images of the couple.

He took great pictures, was professional and courteous, and his energy and smile kept everyone in a good mood. I have been a groomsmen about 8 times and Travis was the best photographer that I have worked with and he didn't have any arrogance or attitude that you sometimes see in the industry. He did whatever the bride wanted and even if a shot was hard, he made it work in some tight spaces. He also went out of his way to do some shots for a groomsman's father who supplied an antique car without breaking stride and with a big smile on his face. If the request was inconvenient or inappropriate, we would never have known, because Travis treated everyone with courtesy and respect and artfully complied without interfering with the bridal party pictures. I would recommend Travis to anyone looking for a great photographer.

She was on time and prepared. Annie said several times that she was willing to take any individual and group shots we wanted. She would also pause to fix hair (important on a windy beach!), adjust clothing and make suggestions for poses. Our granddaughter is 1 year old and she was patient and broke up the shots she was in, so she didn't get cranky. We got our pictures back this week and they are stunning! I would 100% recommend Annie and Black Pineapple Photography.

Due to the fact that I have mobility issues, four of my family members took time from work and traveled thousands of miles so we could capture five generation photos. I hired Black Pineapple Photography to capture the photos. We were to receive our digital photos approximately two to three weeks after the shoot. What I received two weeks later was an email from Liz, proprietor of Black Pineapple Photography. The email stated that my money had been refunded and the photos from our family shoot were permanently lost. WHAT? LOST? An email, not even the courtesy of a phone call or any explanation as to what had occurred. You can imagine the disappointment my family members and I experienced. Two days after the receipt of the email and after my granddaughter called Liz and complained I received a phone call with an explanation. Apparently the photographer, who took the pictures, did not change the SIM card following our shoot and shot another event over our session. Beware, as that photographer still is used by this company. There is no way to recover the photos. This error, the lost employment time, air fare, lodging and car rental expenses were great. Needless to say we cannot capture this time again or recoupe the expenses. "Beware of Black Pineapple Photography".
