We were sooo happy with the photos that were taken! In addition to taking individual and group photos, she mingled among the guests and took candid shots that were priceless! The photographer's kind and friendly demeanor, as well as the outstanding quality of our photos helped make our celebration memorable! I highly recommend Joy, of J-Dionne Photography if you're looking for an awesome photographer!!

LIGHTS, CAMERA, ACTION !!!! Joy did more than just take…read morepictures of our big day. She captured every moment and more. Not only did the pictures come out beautiful, but when we look at them it's like we're reliving that moment. Very well organized professional who knows how to capture the best shot.

I can't recommend Smithson Photography enough! I've known Ron for several years and I can honestly…read moresay he's one of the most creative and unique photographers around. He takes the time before each shoot to get to know his customers and can, therefore, capture the personality of each person or team. His Sportraits, senior, family and individual shots are so much more than what you usually see. His post-shoot editing is second to none. There's a reason he's called THE DFW PHOTOGRAPHER!

Boudoir. Every woman dreams of doing it, but once you think about posing half naked in front of a…read morestranger the idea becomes an unforbidden fantasy. I recently lost 40 lbs and wanted to feel reinvented, do something sexy, feel alive! I did some research and managed to find a couple of Groupon options. Everyone's work seemed played out and/or mundane. The typical pin-up style boudoir where the women attempts to be sexy while pumping gas in bright red lipstick and a bandana. Are guys really into that? Anyways, I quickly moved on to the next photographer on the list and immediately, I hit gold! Catherine Cooper's images more than peaked my interest. Her pictures told a story--as if you were watching a thriller with a crazy plot twist, and you're dying to know how it ended. I was so enthralled with her website and photos, I quickly scheduled a consultation with her. Cathy's punctuality and professionalism is what prompted me to schedule a photography session. She was so down to earth, pleasant, and impressively organized. She walked me step by step on how to prepare for my session as well as what clothes and hairstyles would work best for me. She wasn't pushy when it came to purchasing photo package upgrades and she didn't treat me like I was "just another client." She personalized my photo session with concentration on certain parts of my body that I wanted to showcase more than others. There's no one size fits all with Mrs. Cooper--every clients gets EXACTLY what they want... AND MORE! She provided makeup and hair services, as well as some light snacks during the session. I was 100% comfortable with Cathy; honestly, guys, her support and encouragement made me feel like a Paris Fashion Week runway model. I am confident when I say that Catherine Cooper is the best decision I have ever made on Groupon! If I could give her a rating of 1,000,000 stars I would! I will definitely return for her services and will sing her praises till I'm blue in the face. Reasonable prices, chic studio, and an overall awesome person. The hubs loved the photos! Thanks Cathy!!

My session started out wonderful with hair makeup and conversation. The makeup artist was a doll…read more Although Catherine is wonderful with posing and photography her requirements were not consistent with her customers. After initially leaving a raving review she did not send me the picture she's stated she would send (in email). She also emailed my friend (whom gifted me the shoot). That she was requiring a $1000 by a set deadline before she would even edit my photos. I've never felt so judged in my life. This was not a "requirement" that was stated in the initial consultation with my friend prior to the shoot. I was not about to spend $1000 on pictures I had not seen. I am aware of the time Photography takes and how expensive it can be. This was not my issue at all. I do have a job and I do splurge on myself. One question she asked prior to my leaving is what were some initial fears I had. I mentioned to her that I am also a photographer (not professionally) and I am VERY PICKY about photography and I initially had a difficult time releasing all control to her. If you choose to use her be sure you are clear on ALL of the requirements. There are several Boudoir Photographers in this area. Do your research prior. I will be taking my money elsewhere.

My experience with WISL Studios was amazing! Photog Clauthia was such a pleasure to work with, from…read moreour initial phone call to the moment we finished our shoot. She was so professional and made me feel completely comfortable during our shoot. The photos turned out absolutely beautiful, so natural and just really captured the vibe of the day - I will honestly treasure the experience forever!! :) I cannot recommend WISL Studios enough!

Absolutely incredible and professional experience from the start to the finish! On the day of my…read morephoto shoot, I was welcomed with a high quality gift set or "swag bag" that included a few treats and goodies on behalf of the company, my favorite snacks/drinks and a playlist of my favorite tunes to set the mood. I was asked (not only prior) but during the shoot my degree of comfortability with everything from the temperature to the location of the shoot and everything in between. The hair and MUA (make up artist) was also extremely clean and professional, being sure to ask me what type of skin I categorize under (oily, dry to oily, etc) and made sure to use the products accordingly which I appreciated, having sensitive skin. I also have hair extensions and she was very careful in her styling tools and products and created a stunning yet subtle glam look that coordinated perfectly with the looks/outfits I brought in and the location of our shoot. The photographer was also extrememly credible in having the "eye" for poses, angles and all around professionalism for the art. He was really helpful with physically showing me how to pose, arch, twist and turn versus simple vocal demands and never fell short on reminding how great of a job I was doing despite being nervous and self critical. I was treated with respect, honor and like a celebrity. I would highly reccomend Javier Omar Photography for really any occasion needing photography but most certainly boudoir and would be willing to bet my money that you will not have another experience that comes even close to the expererience you would have with this company. Whether it is your first time and you are considering shooting with this company, or you are an experienced model looking to expand your portfolio, I give 10 out of 10 stars and *highly* reccommend moving forward with Javier Omar Photography and the team.

I am shy so I really stepped out of my comfort zone for the shoot, I am so glad I did! The photos came out wonderful and my husband loved the book I gifted him.

From the initial reaching out to get information until the very end Ariana was AMAZING! She made the whole process perfect! I felt so great about myself, felt beautiful, she listened to what I was looking for and asked the questions to make sure everything was perfect! She was so professional and helped with every question or concerns I had. She helped me select the outfits to flatter my body style and look. Towards the end I was feeling so confident, it was a great feeling! Her vision for poses, looks and lighting are the best I have ever seen!!! I went into this doing these for a gift for my boyfriend and ended up doing this for myself, something I felt great about and can look back and say yup! I did that!!! Thank you Ariana for being you and your amazing gift!!! xoxo

The reason that I'm giving Kelly from Kelly Williams Photography two stars is not because of her…read morephotographs (which are average at best), but because of how she made me (and apparently others) feel. I arrived in professionally done hair and makeup, wearing the outfit I wanted to wear for my headshots. Kelly "greeted" me by abruptly asking to see "what clothing options" I brought to wear. When I said I was wearing what I had on, she just turned her nose up and said "Oh." As someone who doesn't enjoy having my picture taken, I was already nervous. When I conveyed my one headshot request, Kelly responded by saying "That's a really 1980s style of photography, but I'll try to find something that works for me as an artist." What a snob! Honestly, this was one of the least enjoyable hours of my life. She wasn't kind or polite and compassionate at all! When I told a friend, who is a gorgeous actress, about the interaction, she told me that she had her first set of headshots done by Kelly and echoed a similar experience, including that Kelly called her "chunky" and commented that she had a "lazy eye." Save yourself! There are a ton of more talented-- and KINDER!-- photographers in Dallas. Whether you're an actor, model, comedian, or business professional, just know that your money is better spent elsewhere.
