We had a phenomenal experience with Michelle today. We booked the newborn session which also…read moreincluded family photos and sibling photos. She is professional, extremely pleasant and friendly. She is SO patient. My newborn was wide awake before the shoot started and she took her time...(2 hours or more) helping me get the baby to sleep (mixture of me nursing and Michelle swaying/singing to baby). Eventually baby fell into deep sleep and we got excellent, I mean excellent pictures. For the moms out there, Michelle has everything you need. She even thought of things that I never ever ever thought she would have (for example: a boppy pillow for nursing, space heater to keep newborn warm, white noise on blast to help soothe infant !). She is so very thoughtful. Michelle is a down to earth professional and I wish we could have had this experience with our first baby. Or even for our wedding or maternity photos. We found her late, but better late than never! She did just move to the area from washington earlier this year. The price is affordable for all the detail and time she takes with her clients. I would do this again in a heartbeat. Thank you, Michelle!!

Somehow, I've forgotten to leave a review for Lauren Cherie Photography. We have our newborn photos…read moredone with her as a gift. It was the BEST gift I've ever received and by far my favorite. It was great to get photos of my son, in special outfits, as a family, and separate as newborn. We are going in tomorrow for Smash Cake pictures for his first birthday. I wouldn't trust anyone more than her family during this time, she was a former nurse so she is well aware of safety and she works well with children. We took baby yoda pictures before that was even a thing! August of 2019. I'll update with our smash cake photos once we get them.

Really happy with our courthouse wedding photos that Lauren did!…read more Great colors and lighting, and she captured some sweet moments. She made the best of the fact that the courthouse made us keep her camera in the courtroom, so we had to be creative with photos in that one room. Pretty fast turnaround, we received the photos in less than three weeks. Good pricing too, since all we wanted was an hour photo session, not an all-day wedding package. We are very happy and would recommend her!

We already have another shoot semi planned with her for our engagement shoot and the details and ideas that we bounce off each other is so fun, I can't wait to set a date for it!

We worked with Chris to photograph our property for AirBNB and he exceeded our expectations…read morethroughout the experience. First off, he responded to our Yelp inquiry very quickly and was very professional in sharing his experience, pricing, and expectations for the shoot. He was also great about scheduling the time and even followed up the day of to make sure it hadn't fallen off my calendar. He showed up about 10 minutes before the appointment and brought a slew of high end photographic equipment to make sure our suite was presented as well as humanly possible. He spent over an hour capturing every possible angle and was personable and polite. He turned around our photos in less than a week (2 1/2 days) and also made a small tweak at my request in less than a day. And the results are EXCEPTIONAL. Our property looks like a million bucks and will command more bookings and a higher nightly rate now that it's presented so well on Air BNB. Thank you Chris! We will definitely keep you in mind for family photos or our next event.

She explained what my photo session would 'feel' like from her side as the photographer and also asked for my input as to what I wanted to get out of the photoshoot. Her whole approach felt like a collaboration of two artist friends with ideas and desires working toward a single vision of beauty. The way she designs a photoshoot is a way for you to tell your story but it also allows for you to see where that story might go. The photos that Paulina captured from my photoshoot more than blew me away. I had a photoshoot with my daughter and it was so astonishing to see, now as an 'outsider,' how my daughter looked at me. I was in tears of happiness with what I saw. The quality of her portraits are so rich and so warm with a subtle stylish polish of class that the images you take home with you will be admired by all who see them. I highly recommend Paulina to capture those moments you want to cherish forever. The moments that truly mean something and demonstrate love. Love for another person, a pet, or a profession you've honed for years. She will capture your story with the same love and attention.
