I've known for years that I have wanted to hire Sarah to do the photography for my wedding--when I…read morefirst saw her work, I instantly fell in love with her style. By her own admission, Sarah works much more in a photojournalistic style; she focuses on telling a story through her photos, capturing moments and images that are both evocative and beautiful. I also appreciated that her portfolio was more muted and subtle with light and color. I personally find that many photographers are much too bright, even over-exposed, and I didn't want to have to worry about that. Going into the wedding planning, I knew that photography was going to be the largest single thing my wife and I were going to spend money on, so our expectations were high. Despite those high expectations, Sarah still absolutely blew us away! She was professional, communicative, and extremely easy to work with. Going in, Sarah was clear to ask us questions and get clarification for what we wanted from her. Even though she was travelling from doing a wedding the day before in another state, she was punctual, timely, and ready to go. She was perfectly unobtrusive during all the key moments of the day, yet managed to capture them beautifully. She took requests with grace, and even prompted us for photos during the reception that we were exceedingly grateful to have. She took to heart the requests we had made prior to the wedding and followed through with them with precision and care. More than anything else, I was extremely impressed with her vision and direction. Her experience spoke volumes--she was able to guide my wife and I with clarity and directness, while never pushing us or making us feel rushed. Consequently, we have an absolute abundance of really unique photos in a variety of backdrops and settings, all displaying us in our day of bliss. And with the whirlwind that is the wedding day, it has given us so much joy to look through them all again and relive all those moments. I cannot recommend Sarah highly enough!

I genuinely cannot say enough good things about Nicole Marie Studios…read more I've now worked with Nicole across multiple sessions over the years, at both her previous location and now in her newer studio space, and every single experience has been exceptional in completely different ways. What stands out most to me is Nicole's ability to create an environment where people genuinely feel comfortable, confident, and seen. Whether she's working with adults, couples, or kids, she has this incredibly calming and encouraging presence that makes the experience feel natural rather than overly posed or intimidating. As someone who has worked with remarkable photographers before, I can honestly say Nicole's work feels different. There's an intentionality behind everything she does, from the atmosphere she creates during sessions to the way she guides posing, lighting, expression, and movement. That guidance has honestly defined sessions for me in ways past experiences with other photographers never quite achieved. She somehow directs you while still allowing you to feel completely like yourself. And then the galleries arrive and somehow exceed expectations all over again. Her images feel both elevated and deeply personal at the same time. Beautifully artistic and polished, while still capturing personality and emotion in a way that feels authentic rather than manufactured. I've also been incredibly impressed by the consistency across very different types of sessions over the years. That kind of versatility is genuinely rare. ****Her newer studio space deserves its own mention because it is absolutely stunning!!!!! It's her own private, secluded space that she has thoughtfully made her own, with walls of windows that flood the rooms with natural light, surrounded by trees, and even an outdoor shower. It feels less like a studio and more like a retreat, clearly designed around the client experience and warm and relaxed from the moment you walk in. The setting itself does so much of the work in helping you settle in and feel at ease before the camera is ever picked up. Beyond being exceptionally talented, Nicole is also simply a genuinely kind human being who clearly cares deeply about the people she works with, and I think that comes through in the final images more than anything else. Very, very grateful to have worked with her.

Such an empowering experience! From the moment I arrived, through hair and makeup, to the actual…read moreshoot, I felt the energy and passion Nicole shows for her clients. I highly recommend the experience for anyone looking to celebrate themselves and their amazing bodies. Would definitely do it again!

Bottom Line: Best photographer in the Annapolis area for headshots and family photos!…read more If you are thinking about booking an appointment with Heather Crowder for photography just do it! The glowing reviews on Google and the gorgeous images on her website unequivocally speak to the talent and professionalism of Heather Crowder and her photography. Additionally, she is a beautiful and delightful person. Earlier this year I needed new professional headshots. I fumbled around the internet trying to find the right photographer for me and then I received a graduation announcement in the mail that included a stunning photo of the graduate taken by Heather Crowder. At that point I was positive that Heather Crowder was my photographer of choice. I subsequently looked at her website and the Google reviews which further bolstered my confidence in her abilities and my choice. I had several email exchanges and phone calls with Heather in advance of my session and all of them were warmhearted and beneficial. I felt well prepared and at ease with Heather when picture day rolled around! I also used the professional hair and makeup artist provided by Heather and she was top notch! Generally, I would much rather go to the dentist or jury duty than get my picture taken but Heather made it a comfortable experience and my images turned out better than I could have imagined! Heather knows how to give directions for the perfect, flattering pose. She also reads body language well and could tell when a pose felt unnatural for me or I was getting tired or too warm. Heather's talent goes beyond the camera. On the day of my session Heather helped me pick out my outfits and assisted me with getting jewelry on, rolling cuffs, etc. I really appreciated having her help me with these details. I also appreciate that she understands branding and knows how to create photos that represent one's person brand. She wants everyone to look and feel like the best version of themselves and she was instrumental in helping me achieve that. I had my photos taken at the lovely Lightbox Studio in the Annapolis Arts District on West Street. The studio place is bright, contemporary and inspiring but for those who prefer another location, Heather can accommodate that as well. Regarding the Lightbox Studio, there is some nearby street parking and a garage about a block away so that was convenient. I love my portraits taken by Heather and I hightly recommend her!
