From beginning to end, Claire made this such a memorable experience. Our very first chat over the…read morephone, I was nervous but as I continued to talk with Claire, she explained the session and made me feel at ease. I like how she kept me updated with emails and texts, asking if I had questions regarding the shoot. And as my photo shoot was coming up, she would email reminders and do and don't on what to bring - outfits, accessories, - as well as how to prepare ourselves. Once I got to the shoot, I was so nervous, but Claire made me feel comfortable and showed/explained poses to me. I loved the outcome of the photos that I purchased more items / photos. I can't wait to see the end result. This whole experience has definitely boost my self-confidence and made me feel more beautiful in my own skin. I would definitely recommend her!

I decided to book a photoshoot with Claire because I had recently lost some weight and was feeling…read morereally good about myself. During our consultation, she made me feel super comfortable with her professional manner and fun attitude. I never felt pressured to book her for a photoshoot, but looking at the photos from her ad and talking to her, I knew I would be in good hands, so I decided to book her. Working with her was so easy from the very beginning. She's transparent on her process, and she walks you through it step by step. Her emails have so much useful information, so be sure to read them! She helps you pick outfits that are flattering for your body type, hair, nails, and makeup tips, places to shop, what to bring for your photoshoot, schedule for the day of, etc. There is no reason for someone not to have a great experience with Claire; just follow her instructions, she's been doing these shoots for a long time, and she knows what she's talking about! Upon arrival, Claire and my makeup artist (Ariel) went over my preferences, and I cannot praise Ariel enough; my hair and makeup were absolutely flawless! Claire will talk with you about the process, which made me feel more comfortable, then she'll go through the outfits to see what would work best for the shoot, and set up your wardrobe in a private room. Claire and Ariel will check your outfits and jewelry to make sure you look flawless, and your shoot begins. Don't worry about posing; Claire has a ton of poses for you and guides you on how to hit your marks. My time with them was so much fun, exciting, comfortable, and empowering. When the shoot is done, you'll have a break, so make sure to bring lunch! During this time, Claire is setting up your photos for the selection process. Again, there is no pressure to pick or discard photos from your gallery. The hardest part is declining photos because her photography is gorgeous! I couldn't believe how incredible these photos looked, and that takes a lot for me to say about myself; I have never felt so confident about my looks until seeing these photos. After the selection process, I always received an email when my prints or artwork were being shipped to me, again continuing her fantastic communication process. If you book a shoot with Claire, you're doing yourself a favor. Just be sure to read all the emails because the information is so valuable to enhance your photoshoot experience. She is great with communication, so if you have any questions, don't be afraid to ask her!

She brings such creativity and professionalism to every shoot, making me feel completely comfortable and safe on set. Randi helps with posing in a way that feels natural, even for someone like me who can be a bit camera-shy! For the maternity shoot, Randi and her team went above and beyond. They had a fantastic wardrobe stylist and makeup artist, and they all worked together seamlessly. It was clear they cared deeply about the photos and were genuinely invested in making each moment perfect--I never felt like just another client.

Okay- here's the dirt…read more If you go look at their Instagram and website, it's hard to tell who they've shot recently. That's on purpose. They've had a bunch of their former clients become headshot photographers who copy them. So Theo and Juliet intentionally DON'T share their newest work. Also, they undersell themselves. You have noooo idea how good they are at THE WHOLE THING. I paid the upgrade to have Juliet pick out my clothing. I want her to style my whole life. I bought a few of the pieces, even one I didn't shoot in. She's so good. Theo and Juliet are HILARIOUS. They're so good at putting you at ease. So much so that I'm like, are they tired after this? Because I didn't have to worry about a THING. They're watching for your errant hairs, your errant boobage, and you can trust they're never going to get your face from a bad angle. (Because they'll call each other out and fix the angle and backdrop and lighting until it's perfect - and you're laughing as they do it.) My makeup was so good I didn't want to wash my face at the end of the day. Seriously the best headshot experience ever. I've shot probably ten headshot photographers (as a tween and in my 20's) and this was the best experience I've ever had. You leave your shoot with them feeling like everything is possible. (It is, but it's easy to forget, you know?) Don't bother comparison shopping or being a weirdo like me who was like "I'll lose ten pounds but shoot with someone else in the meantime." Don't do that. Just shoot with them. They'll make you look like you're ten pounds smaller anyway. And they'll nail your looks and vibe. It's just so good! They're worth every penny. Do it do it do it. Amen. Also- funny story, we hadn't originally booked with them. See above in regards to being a weirdo. My husband is also an actor and shot with them 20 years ago. But we'd booked with another "big name" with a name that sounds kinda like a race car driver... We lived in Phoenix at the time so we booked an Airbnb in LA, jumped through the hoops to get the PCR c test (their requirement), arrived in town and sent the test. ...And they somehow hadn't booked the slot. We'd even sent the deposit. They didn't take responsibility. It was super weird. So I told my husband to email Juliet, which he did. She called back super quickly AND squeezed him in. We cancelled my shots with the original person and rescheduled me with Theo and Juliet, too. Theo and Juliet are hilarious, they legitimately care, and they only shoot one person per day so you get a FULL experience. Okay this REALLY concludes my review.

Their lighting, backdrops, equipment, and overall photographic artistry are unmatched. This is why they've been the top choice for celebrities, major agents, and the most in-the-know managers for over 25 years. They have more experience than anyone, and their understanding of how to capture the characters you play is impossible to replicate. When it comes to angles, variety, and knowing exactly how to make every setup work for your type, Theo has it nailed. He has this incredibly calming presence that makes the whole session feel easy and grounded. Juliet's advice on wardrobe is crucial and often the key to creating the most successful headshots, helping you capture your essence in a versatile, realistic way that will get you out. And her makeup artistry is so natural and truly brings out the best in you in the most effortless way. She also offers personal shopping packages where she'll go out and find the perfect wardrobe pieces for your session at a very reasonable price. I am not related to them in any way, and I don't get anything for posting this. I'm sharing it because it feels like the right thing to do for the right people and to help other actors. You will definitely get more than enough amazing shots, but you will also get an experience and industry advice that is truly priceless.

His photography style immediately stood out to me while researching photographers, and he delivered exactly what I had hoped for. From the beginning, he was professional, responsive, and kind.

He arrived promptly, was respectful to both staff and guests, and worked diligently to capture a wide range of moments -- from candid shots and group photos to the little party details. Some of my favorite images are of my daughter in a mini chair that was a part of a set up we had, a great idea that Darrian came up with. The final photos were delivered within a few weeks, and his pricing was very reasonable. I highly recommend Darrian for anyone looking for a talented, thoughtful, and professional photographer.
