This last time, in May 2025 it was slightly more difficult because my toddler was also in the photos. They exceeded my expectations! She is worth every penny! Her and her assistant go above and beyond to make sure you get every shot you want! They have so many outfits, wraps, headbands and props to choose from that you don't have to worry about bringing anything for your newborn. You are in the best hands with Sara!

I was NOT disappointed! Going with Shannon for my special event was the best decision I made for this project! The photos turned out at the exact level of quality I saw and loved when I checked out her work. We LOVE our photos! There were so many great shots. Shannon is incredibly sweet and disarming, she has an amazing artistic eye, she's very organized, professional, and responsive. She communicated timely and respectfully, providing all documents and invoices in an easy and professional way. I always knew what was happening and what I was getting. Shannon accommodated our desires and requests, including what to highlight in the photos. She was great at posing us in natural and flattering ways. I wanted a certain location for the photos, and Shannon happily accommodated that but she also recommended trying an alternate site nearby in addition to what I asked for. Boy was I happy she did that! The alternate location photos turned out amazing and are my favorite! This woman has an amazing eye!! I literally can't say enough nice things about this person and this business. I really really hope to have the privilege of working with her again! I plan to reach out shortly to request her for a future project! I HIGHLY recommend Shannon and her services!!!!

We chose the mini session, but I would not have regretted choosing the full session in hindsight.

Vanessa kindly waited for us and worked so quickly and professionally with the limited time we had. She emailed the pictures to us extremely fast and we love each one she chose! They are soooo beautiful. Hubby and I highly recommend her and will use her in the future for our newborn pics.

What makes her even more special is the heart she brings to her work. As a mom and experienced family photographer -- from newborn sessions to weddings and everything in between -- she has such patience, warmth, and professionalism. If you're looking for a photographer in Contra Costa County, Alameda County, Napa, Sonoma, or the Bay Area, I can't recommend her enough. She is the real deal.

I was looking for a photographer in the Brentwood area as a graduation gift for my niece. She was…read moregraduating high school, and I wanted to make this moment extra special for her. I came across Kree's Yelp page because of how close she was, but what really stood out was her website--the caliber and vibrancy of her photos were incredible. I knew right away she'd be a perfect fit for capturing my niece, both in her cap and gown and in her super colorful prom dress (which I was confident Kree could do justice!). From the moment I reached out, Kree was super responsive and easy to communicate with. The contract was simple and straightforward, pricing was fair and the breakdown of her packages were awesome. and she helped us agree on a time and location that worked perfectly, not far from our house either, which was a huge plus. On the day of the shoot, Kree arrived right on time and immediately made my niece feel comfortable. Since it was my niece's first time being professionally photographed, I appreciated how Kree guided her with poses and gave her direction to bring out her best angles. She was friendly, patient, and made the whole experience fun. We received the edited photos about two weeks later, and they were amazing, better than I could have imagined. Kree truly captured my niece's personality and the significance of the moment. Highlights for me: super responsive communication, an easy-to-understand contract, a convenient location, her friendly demeanor, and of course, the beautiful final photos. Thanks so much Kree!!!

Everyone in my family commented how kind and professional Valeria was. The pictures also turned out beautiful, she was able to capture those beautiful moments when my toddler was smiling and laughing. I totally recommend Valeria as your photographer.

He's got a great artistic eye but is also able to edit better than I knew possible (I had him turn a pic of two boys into a solo shot and he did it without cropping the image). Through the whole process you can tell Matt is really there for his client. He wants to hear your ideas so the set will reflect what you're looking for. The day of the shoot he was sooooo patient with my boys. Being so young, they don't exactly sit still lol. He's a super nice guy delivering a top of the line product. Probably the most VIP feeling photography experience I've had. I highly recommend Illumedia :)
