Today I was scheduled for a boudoir photoshoot. When I received my confirmation email for…read morephotoshoot, it said a link for deposit was attached, although it wasn't. I replied and told them there was no payment link attached, to which I never received a response. Yesterday, I received a text message confirming my appointment. In the text message, it said that I could send deposit via cash app (never specified deposit amount) or just pay in studio. I was just gonna pay in studio. As I was checking my email last night, I saw that they sent me a cancelation for my appointment today. No explanation. I'm gonna assume that it was because of not receiving a deposit, but I also never received a reply when I inquired about the payment link. I understand that business practices have changed and that we're still in the middle of a global pandemic, but at no time did I receive a call or talk to someone personally. Communication through email and text messages ONLY is very unprofessional for what seemed to be a reputable business.

Each time, Nikki has made me feel comfortable, at ease, and even relieved from outside stressors that could've had a negative effect on the shots. I would recommend her business; however, ensure one reads the information clearly to prevent any confusion regarding service prices. I initially learned of her through Groupon like many others and was a bit shocked by the in-person price range, but I also understand that Groupon does not list many hidden/additional fees, which are detailed on a business's site.

I booked a session with Lisa to photograph our two beautiful dogs in March 2022. At the time of…read morebooking the session was open and purchased as a gift. Fast forward October 2022. Finally contacted Lisa directly to schedule a date. Six months later. No problem. We were able to book a session within a week or two after the call. Lisa came to our home, on time, fully prepared and ready to shoot. Armed with every whistle, bell and squeaker that elicited the most wonderful expressions from our girls. Lisa spent over an hour with us taking photos in several key areas outside. Once our session was done we met with Lisa at her studio two weeks later. We were so overwhelmed with the amount of great images that we decided to go home and think it over only to book another appointment. Again, no problem. We were able to take our time, make out decisions and within 2-4 weeks later, and in time for the holidays we had our photos to proudly show our visitors. Lisa's prices are very reasonable and her work is absolutely stunning. We cannot thank Lisa enough for giving us a very enjoyable day during our shoot and photos to cherish for a lifetime. Not only great photos, but also a family outing that we will always remember fondly.

She was well prepared, super helpful, professional and friendly. Amanda took the time to get to know us and kept in mind our style and wishes for the wedding, which was to have a more casual wedding day.

They capture the setting really beautifully which was important to us beyond our portraits. Thank you Amanda!

We got married in November of 2021. Our goal was to find a photographer who didn't overly…read moreedit/brighten their photos (you know the ones where you can't see the details in a bride's white dress because it's so brightened). Amanda delivered and then some. We found Amanda through our venue and she gave us the perfect wedding photos (and engagement photos) that are currently playing on the Google hub in our kitchen. Her work is stunning, of course, but she's also a wonderful person to work with. A few days before our wedding, we were anxiously watching the weather forecast because we had planned to have our wedding photos taken at a local park. Amanda reached out to me to brainstorm a few places as a backup plan. She proactively contacted a few venues and even came out to look at them with me (and brought her adorable little daughter) to see how they'd work. Lo' and behold, the heavens opened up and we had a torrential downpour on our hands the morning of our wedding. However, by the time we were ready for photos, the ground was dry, the sun was shining, and we had 60° of pure first look bliss. Amanda, her second and third shooters (Olga & Josh) were truly lovely and had no trouble pivoting back to our original plan. They then stayed with us all day and night and on the dance floor capturing every moment. Amanda sent us sneak peaks online then within just a few weeks uploaded the nearly 1000 photos to an online portal for us so we could share with our family and friends. Every photo was beautifully taken and we could not be happier. Amanda was so caring and so easy to work with and we will have these gorgeous memories forever because of her. Thank you, Amanda!

They also captured all the small details I wouldn't have even thought of asking for! The only problem is that now I have TOO many favorite photos and can't figure out how to narrow them down for a photo album. Their prices are also super reasonable compared to other local photographers and I think they now also offer videography services as well! You get so much more than you pay for when you use Angela. I would run not walk and book her while she has dates available!

She took it upon herself to scope out our neighborhood ahead of time and find the best place to take some post-proposal shots.

When we were planning our wedding, I knew that photography was important, but I had no idea that…read morethe photographer was just as important as the images they would create. You will probably spend more time with this person than any other vendor, and I am so glad we had the opportunity to get to know Lindsay. She was able to capture our experience of the wedding, as well as, all the wonderful moments we missed. We now have all the beautiful photos of the ceremony, formals and first dance, but also a priceless record of all of our friends and family who attended. She was able to do this because not only could she magically "disappear" when needed (she must have teleported around the ceremony), but is also very intuitive and can capture people's personalities. She was able to capture ours because we were incredibly comfortable around her. We got a vendor crush during the engagement session and liked her more and more. Lindsay is also great because she takes the photos that you want. She doesn't push you to take photos that are posed and cheesy, but knows better than you might (or I did) that some of the photos you don't think are important she will secretly snap. What more can I say? This woman is amazing.

Maria was absolutely amazing to work with through every part of the process! I knew I wanted…read morebeautiful wedding pictures, and I could tell from her portfolio that she was able to make these beautiful soft scenes in almost any location. When we first met with her, my now husband and I expressed that we were a little concerned about how well we would be in front of the camera. But during our engagement session, Maria was so fun and gave clear direction so we ended up having beautiful photos! On the day of the wedding, her team was so professional and Prepared - Maria even hand sewed part of my sleeve ruffle back on when it popped off just before the ceremony! I couldn't have asked for a better photographer, and I would happily work with her again for any future big life events :)

We were initially overwhelmed when trying to select a…read morephotographer for our interfaith wedding, but seeing Maria's photos on her website made the decision easy. We really appreciated her style of photography - deep rich colors and focus on the couple. Other photographers seemed to have a lot of strange angles and washed out colors, which we were trying to avoid. Hiring Maria was a breeze. She is responsive by email and always happy to jump on a call when needed. Part of her package included engagement photos, which were extremely helpful when putting together our save the dates and website. She is intuitive, yet also did a good job of asking us for our preferences to confirm. The wedding day was also a breeze, and Maria documented all of our key moments without being intrusive at all. Maria's turnaround times are excellent, and she was never late with delivering sneak peeks or the digital albums. Finally, we also worked with Maria on the final physical photo album. She was very flexible and allowed us to have multiple rounds of revisions. She was very accommodating even when we wanted to swap out many photos for more preferred variations. It was a lot of work and Maria did not hesitate to help us develop the perfect album. Overall my wife and I would highly recommend Maria for any event based on our experience working with her for our wedding. Thanks Maria!
