Brandi was amazing. We are not from the coastal area so we weren't sure where to go. She gave us…read moreseveral options with so much information (like the way the tide hits the sand, whether it requires a lot of walking or if parking is hard). The site we picked was exactly right thanks to her wisdom and insight! She also helped give us the perfect kinds of shots we wanted by talking it out, having us set up a collaborative pinterest board, and getting to know our family a little before our meet up. Brandi paid attention to every little detail! Even tiny things--like sending our USB tied with a little flower and some Polaroid copies of a few of the best shots. What a beautiful surprise! Also, our 3 year old has Autism and I don't think we've been able to get more than 2 pictures with him looking at the camera. Somehow Brandi managed to perfectly capture him in every shot. We will treasure these photos for life. We were absolutely delighted to work with such a kind, conscientious, and wonderful photographer. We would HIGHLY recommend her for any family or individual photos.

My wife and I asked Becky to shoot our wedding celebration, and we could not have been any happier…read morewith the images she created - Becky is not only a talented photographer, but a joy to be around. Our celebration was a relatively loosely planned event, without the typical structure of a formal wedding. Becky did a fantastic job of going with the flow, and still capturing the specific moments we had originally asked for. Everybody loved spending time with Becky, and getting those pesky family portraits was a breeze with her gentle (but firm!) nature. Because it was an outdoor event, Becky had to work with the elements, but you'd never know it! We love the final images - Becky was able to see so many small, sweet moments that would have otherwise been missed. She perfectly balanced candids of folks hanging out and relaxing, with the few 'events' of the day, the locale, the food, and the decorations. The images were delivered quite quickly, and Becky helped make that process super simple. Thank you, thank you to Becky for the images of a lifetime! We would totally recommend Becky for anybody looking for a photographer, particularly for a wedding!

My fiance and I are so awkward in front of the camera, but Becky helped us ignore the lens and focus on having a great time with each other - the resulting engagement photos were above and beyond what I could have ever hoped for. I cannot recommend Becky enough... she is flexible and sensitive to your wants/needs, while providing the expert talent needed to create the perfect pictures!

We spent a lot of money and time getting to our location since we are from Los Angeles. I lost money on hair and makeup appointments I had to cancel. My wedding is in 7 months and now it's to late to send out our save the dates. I just feel like it was very unprofessional of her to cancel the morning of. It was a few days ahead it would have been understandable.

Two of my cousins are getting married in 2022 and both booked Sefra! Stop your search, Sefra is the best! Book her NOW!

Ashley did our engagement photos and has done yearly family portraits since. (We had already booked…read moreour wedding photographer when we got a chance to work with her when she was in the States over the holidays, back when she was based in Germany.) She is everything you want in a person capturing the emotion of your relationships and the beauty of an intimate moment: sensitive, playful, creative, adventurous and willing to chase the perfect light but thoughtful enough to keep you comfortable. But a lovely personality without gorgeous images is moot. No worries there because Ashley delivers. I'm super awkward and uncomfortable in front of a camera, and obnoxiously critical of my appearance in photos, but I loved how they turned out and had mad people tell me both my engagement photos and the family portraits with our son looked like they belonged in a magazine. And let's be real. My family is cute, but not Style Me Pretty worthy without some expert curating from an artist. We feel very fortunate to have our go-to image master capture us and our son through the coming years. She is amazing and worth every penny.

She has the ability to adapt to any setting, and capture the essence of the surrounding environment and personalities of her clients. We couldn't be happier with our wedding photos; she made us feel at ease and created a space where we could be ourselves. Ashley has the ability to take a combination of candid and posed shots that look elegant and feel natural. Our photos express who we are as a couple and embody the love, joy and romance of our special day. We especially enjoyed how she shot with both film and digital, which resulted in a range of photos with distinctive sensibilities. She is a wonderful artist and is professional and reliable every step of the way. I promise you will be pleased and most likely surprised by the beauty of her work.

The photos she takes make you feel the passion and the emotions, feel people's joy and their love, as if you were actually there! It's hard to believe that such vibrancy-both aesthetic and emotional-can be captured in photographs. My wife and I had the incredible privilege of working with Tina as our wedding photographer. We did an engagement shoot to get to know her beforehand (strongly recommend doing that), and we immediately loved her! She is such a joyful person to work with, she made us feel incredibly comfortable and we actually had a ton of fun (despite generally not loving having our pictures taken!). She is super professional, collected and tactful, very focused and dedicated to her work, and provides the perfect balance of being direct about where to go and what to do, but always being kind, calm, and sensitive. No one could have done a better job of capturing the best weekend of our lives. We are so grateful to have gotten to work with Tina Loveridge!

I loved how she captured both posed portraits as well as sweet interactions and moments throughout the day. Also, I did not realize how important it would be to me to vibe well with photographer's personality. Tina is very chill and the her calming presence was lovely to have around on wedding day. An all around class act, professional, beautiful photos... what's not to love!! I highly recommend Tina.

Lisa Mallory is an amazing person and photographer. I am a very amateur photographer myself, so I…read morewas very picky when hiring the photographer for out wedding. Lisa has good lighting, composition, and she is way more affordable than other photographers at her caliber. After doing our engagement session, I was relieved to find out that she also put us at ease so that we look our best in front of the camera! Also, if you want a certain photo that may be a little out of the ordinary (like a jumping photo or a long exposure sparkler photo), just ask her and she will try anything! On the wedding day, she was composed and happy and her assistant was awesome too! In a series of unfortunate events, I was left with no one to help me lace up my dress on the day of, but Lisa was so sweet, she did it for me! Also, because of these events were were running almost a half an hour behind schedule, but Lisa pulled it together and got all of the pictures I wanted done in the smaller time allotted. I was so happy! Hire her, you will not be disappointed.

If you're considering hiring Lisa Mallory - DO IT!!! I cannot say enough great things about Lisa…read more She is a wonderful person and an amazing photographer. My husband and I hired Lisa to photograph our wedding and it was by far the BEST decision we made when planning our wedding. After meeting Lisa we immediately knew she understood our vision for our wedding pictures. Taking pictures can sometimes we awkward, but Lisa made us feel much more comfortable through her encouragement and positive attitude. Everyone that has seen our wedding pictures is blown away, just as we were... they came out better than we could ever imagine. We honestly couldn't be happier with our pictures and are so happy that we decided to work with Lisa.

Ohhh what can I say about Sarah Kathleen other than she is the greatest human being I have ever…read moremet. Her photography is gorgeous/flawless/perfect/everything and her personality is amazing. Being photographed is a little awkward, but she made me and my husband feel oh so comfortable with her. I booked her because obviously her work is stunning, but she is so quick on email it is ridiculous. I emailed several photographers that either never got back to me or took dayssss. Sarah responded almost immediately and then we went back and forth for a while. She answered all of my questions promptly and in depth. It was no question that I had to book her. We did our engagement photos in December 2017 and she returned them within the week. Wow was that impressive. *She probably doesn't always do this* I really didn't talk to her much until we got closer to the wedding date (October 2018). I had a few random questions about timeline, etc. throughout the year which she responded to quickly. The wedding day was perfect. She brought a second shooter, Emily, who was equally as wonderful as Sarah. Sarah would literally jump into plants to get the perfect picture. Several people commented on how she really did whatever it took to get the picture (jump in plants, climb on chairs, anything). And from the sneak peak I have seen so far, it was all worth it. I was pretty nervous on the wedding day of course, and she made me feel so at ease. I feel like I've known her forever and she is my instant best friend. My mom said that she never even saw Sarah except in the background of a few photos that friends and family took. I think my favorite thing about the wedding and Sarah is that when we were looking through our card box after the wedding we had a card from Sarah. Sarah had been taking Polaroids the entire evening and she put about 10 of them in with the card. This was so special and I had no idea she was doing this. She got a few of me and my husband, one of the father-daughter dance, mother-son dance, and Bridal Party. This was the best thing to find the day after the wedding. Thank you Sarah for being your wonderful amazing self! I absolutely adore you.

Really could not recommend her work enough!!
