Worlds Apart Studios was recommended to us by a friend who had been a bridesmaid in another wedding…read morethey had done. We knew after one phone call that we were making the right choice in working with Hannah and Kaela for our engagement shoot and wedding! The engagement shoot was a great way to get acquainted with these gals and get comfortable in front of their cameras. They took us out to a gorgeous, private spot in Hood River and gave us helpful suggestions on how to stand and move naturally until we got the hang of things. The day of the wedding, Hannah and Kaela somehow managed to be efficient with the time and keep things moving, while at the same time blending in to the background and letting us enjoy all the moments of the day as they came. The benefit to having two amazing photographers working together is invaluable - in looking over our wedding photos, we get to see the same moments from different angles, such as seeing each of our faces during the first look. Not to mention, we got a TON of photos back from both the engagement shoot and wedding. They really captured the sweetest, most heartfelt moments of the day, and we love getting to relive them through our photos.

We had our newborn session with Gretchen today and I was completely blown away. Honestly, if I…read morecould give 6 stars, I would. She totally lived up to her Instagram standards (which are pretty awesome-go see for yourself). Gretchen was a total professional. She did a million things that just exceeded our expectations for a newborn shoot so here are just a few: -She gave pre-shoot instructions on what to do and what not to do before our shoot (when to feed him, what to bring, etc) including driving instructions. -She has a studio that is full of everything we could ever need such as outfits, swaddles, blankets, backdrops, props, and more. -She washes everything used during each shoot. -She uses things like baby pads, gloves, and more in order to make the process sanitary as well as comfortable for baby. -She gave us plenty of options for things to use during the shoot as well as making helpful suggestions. For example, she has hundreds of swaddles and blankets of all textures and colors to choose from so my husband and I were having trouble choosing. She said "Well, let's start with this... what color are your shirts you will be wearing? Okay great, then let's stick with earthy tones. Here are some tones that would go well. And if that's the palette we're going with, I would suggest this backdrop." These things were not only helpful for my husband and I, but they ended up looking GREAT! She really is skilled at her craft. -She is both professional and personable. Meaning, she is going to go through the poses in an expedient yet gentle way, but will also oblige you in some silly stories or witty banter throughout the process. It really was enjoyable for everyone involved. -During the mom&baby photos, I asked her if I could peek at them to make sure there was something I liked. She did a great job but I wanted to get an additional angle so I asked if that was possible. Not only did she oblige, but she didn't make me feel bad about it or like I was imposing. It was so nice! -She is very seasoned in this profession (she's been at it for over a dozen years) so she knows the poses, what works, what doesn't, when to push baby and when to move on to the next thing, etc. -Not only is she a great photographer, but she's also just good with babies in general. Meaning, she was the one doing all of the outfit changes, swaddling, and more. She was experienced in the sense that she could sense the difference between a cranky baby and an incoming fart or poop. This is obviously helpful in a session like this. She was able to rock him, soothe him, move his body in a way that he liked, and was careful about removing her hands slowly in a way that wouldn't startle him, etc. She just SPEAKS baby, if that makes sense. Overall, we are super happy with the shoot and although we haven't received the photos yet, we know they're going to be great because, well, we saw them taken. Everything was adorable, classy, and clean. It was just perfect. Thank you, Gretchen, so making this potentially stressful process anything BUT that!!! We will definitely be coming back with baby #2! -Natalia, Tim, and Enzo

She is very professional and easy to work with. She had tons of props, outfits, hats, and amazing backdrops. Her photography room is heated and has sound machines playing to keep your baby calm and sleepy. She is also very reasonably priced. Make sure to reserve way in advance. Her schedule can get very busy!

Our sessions have included newborn sessions in our home (one with twins!), maternity photos in her studio space with a dress borrowed from her client closet, and family portraits outside on a cold and rainy day with a 1 year old.

In addition to the amazing photos, Leahana has great suggestions for locations, provides a packet of information prior to the day with tips for wardrobe, and is SOO good with kids! Honestly can't recommend Leahana enough!

Having Leahana as our photographer was an amazing experience, and I'm so glad that we had her capture this moment. From the start, she was very kind and communicated well as we planned the day. She provided many different locations to choose from and considerations for each of those locations. She also had a comprehensive guide for preparing for the day of the shoot. All of this was extremely helpful given that we were unfamiliar with the area and did not have experience doing a photography session before. On the day of, Leahana made us feel comfortable throughout, and the 3 hours flew by. Very chill vibes and super fun! The pictures surpassed our high expectations :) I would 100% recommend her, and we will definitely work with her again!

Dan was an amazing photographer and a great guy. He was very responsive with all the questions I…read morehad and was quick to reply. He gave me a few venue ideas, which was used for my family photo's. We had a group of 12 and Dan maybe the shoot not awkward at all. We all enjoyed the creative shoots that Dan took. He took a variety of different group shots and did individuals as well. It's crazy how much he got done in only an hour. I would highly recommend Dan for personal photography's/family photos. If you are looking for someone friendly, professional and overall just a good guy, look no further Dan Rice is your guy.

We will be using Dan for all of our family photos in the future. Highly, highly recommend him! He was the best!!!
