After a quick phone call to go over the details, he immediately jumped into action and made the entire process stress free. Shaun captured our proposal perfectly and delivered absolutely stunning photos that exceeded every expectation. On top of that, he sent us sneak peeks the very next day, which made us even more excited to see the full gallery. Throughout the experience, Shaun was professional, patient, experienced, and attentive to what we wanted. He made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and captured every special moment beautifully. If you're looking for someone who is passionate about their work, I can't recommend Shaun enough. I would absolutely hire him again!!

Not only is she a stellar photographer, but her warm and giving personality also extended to a sort of mentorship when I was becoming a photographer. I have always looked up to her ability to be calm, creative, and kind in fast paced environments. It's something I still struggle with in photography. As a person who is usually behind the camera, many of the photos I have of my children are without me in them. The ones I do have and love are almost all by Melissa. There aren't many people I can trust the way I trust her and I owe my family memories, and my career, all to her. She's the first person I check with when I have a referral and the first person I think of when I need anything personally. And she will always be. Can't imagine things any other way.

Not only were the photos amazing and captured our love perfectly, but she kept our timetable on point and was super helpful with keeping the day on track. She's super fun and sweet and overall just great to work with. When I look back at my wedding photos it reminds me of what a special day it was. She captured memories that my brain was too overwhelmed to register in the moment, that might've been lost forever if I didn't have the photographic evidence. I will cherish these photos forever

She made the photo taking process so easy, even though my husband and I aren't big photo takers and is just a wonderful human who is so easy to work with. The next time we need any photos in the future I am definitely calling upon her. I'm at a loss for words for how happy I am with our photos, and just cannot recommend her enough.

His sense of humor and lighthearted personality made the experience enjoyable for both the couple and the vendor team. From what I've seen on social media, his work is absolutely stunning, and I can't wait to see the full gallery from our event.

Well Talia Studio was everything I wanted and more! It was tough planning a wedding for 300 people and it was even tougher finding a photographer I could trust, someone who I knew could do the job, and someone I didn't have to worry about days leading up to the wedding. Talia turned out to be all of that and it was amazing how she made me feel at ease the moment I met her. She knows, from experience, what it takes to get the job done and she makes sure that you know that right off the bat. When planning a wedding, that goes such a long way. It's almost like she knew what I was going to ask next and was ready for me. The engagement shoot we did with her was a dream. It was like re-living every date you've ever been on J (that might be the newlywed talk in me). We captured video during the engagement session which only helped to tell the story of our relationship early on. They used that video in our same day edit and our final wedding video, which turned out better than I ever dreamed of. And if you have the opportunity to book Talia's team, please highly consider it. I would recommend her to anyone I know, 10 times over. Not only does she take gorgeous pictures, but she gets them to you quickly, in an online gallery and on a USB, and she follows-up with you about album information right away too. Her customer service skills are above all the rest (if you ask me). She truly cares about all her clients and does whatever it takes to make you happy. As far as I'm concerned, that is what exactly what I was looking for. Thank you, Talia, you are doing it right! The very happy Allison & Josh

Huge plus--they worked so well with our videographer and made our video that much better (the videographers filmed what Talia and Jeff set up for photos). Talia and Jeff are naturals at what they do. They are down to earth and really know how to make everyone involved feel comfortable. I would HIGHLY recommend her. -Marilyn & Rick
