I'm not someone who considers themself photogenic, but Evan has coached me every time to feel my best and most confident self and captures that. She's able to see you in ways we may not see ourselves and reflects that back to us in the most breathtaking and visually profound ways. I've worked with Evan on several shoots over the years, for myself, my growing family and now with our baby and she has also been unbelievably accommodating and respective, listens to ideas and incorporating them organically into her stunning vision and exceptional images. All the images she's produced over the years are absolutely visually beautiful, but are also exceptional examples of photo narratives - channeling storytelling into each remarkable image she captures. Evan works quickly and diligently to create quality photos but also an overall experience from start to finish - from session set up, day of and image delivery. Images were received before schedule and in the highest quality. Evan is also very personable, friendly and thoughtful in person and on all online communication.

Well first off, it's not up on top of the mountain. It's literally in a valley that looks out. Everything was great the minister was polite but not reading from the bible. He reads off a scripted piece of paper. Photographer was great. I know he took some nice photos. Unfortunately I won't be getting those photos. They don't tell you how much photos are. Well they are 1699 plus tax. We only got maybe 20 photos taken from a ten minute ceremony. So they expect you to pay 100$ for a photo. Um yeah, no!!! Luckily we took our own photos elsewhere which turned out better than theirs. There was no coordinator on site. You pull up their steep drive way ( so I hope your vehicle makes it up ) to a cramp parking. I will be reporting them to BBB. The way they are pricing there photos is ridiculous and way over board. That's a down payment on a car,or even a mortgage payment. At least. Don't waste your time here. And to others who has had the same issues I suggest reporting them to BBB. ( +1 703-276-0100 ) and shut them down. Since they want to be unjustified with their costumers. Costumers can take a stand against them.... I wish there was a zero star.

I was trying to find more information for a friend of mine who was going to be in the area and hasn't had family photos in a long time. I wasn't asking for anything out of the norm -- my friend and her family were visiting TN last week and I reached out a few days before they were leaving to inquire about availability, location option, and pricing. This would have been such a special moment for her and her family, but we weren't able to make it work due to the lack of response. I would have understood if it couldn't work due to timing, but we didn't have the opportunity to figure that out...

Wont ever give him a call again for pictures. Very disappointed. Wish I could give 0 stars.

She rushed through stiff photographs giving next to no guidance. My family will never all be in the same place again, this was our one chance and we ended up with mediocre pictures that could have been taken at a department store. Do not trust your important memories to someone who cares so little.

She held a conversation with us the whole time so there was no awkward silence. She knew exactly what areas to use and what positions to put us in. She captured us in one of our favorite spots in Tennessee, Cade's Cove! She told us the pictures would be ready within 2 weeks, but we got them within 3 days! We had props we wanted to use that she made sure she got in the pictures and she made sure we got all of the poses we had in mind. We are already talking about booking her next year when we hope our whole family will be able to join us in our favorite vacation spot!
