We've been lucky enough to have Steph photograph both our engagement and our wedding, and we can…read morehonestly say she is something special. For our engagement shoot, she made magic out of the space we were in. When the weather shifted mid-session, she didn't miss a beat--she helped us lean in, and the result was some of the most spectacular photos we've ever seen. She even went above and beyond to include our old (and rather temperamental) dog, creating the sweetest memories that we'll hold onto forever. For our wedding, Steph was incredible. She has this beautiful presence--she's fully there, warm, grounded, yet somehow moves so effortlessly and quietly that she captures moments no one else would have noticed. She is as creative and artistic as she is kind and easy to be around. For us, she became immediate family. The photos from our day are filled with so much heart, soul, and beauty. Both Steph and her work are true treasures.

Stephanie has been our photographer and honestly just our person for over 10 years. She's shot our…read morewedding in San Francisco (we live in Truckee), maternity photos, annual family portraits, and professional headshots and photoshoots. She remembers when we're due for photos before we do and just reaches out and that's just who she is. She literally talked me out of skipping a photographer at our City Hall wedding. I'm so glad she did. Those photos are everything to us. As an interracial same-sex couple, finding someone we truly felt safe and celebrated with was huge. Stephanie has always been that without question. Our family wouldn't trust anyone else. Working with her is easy as she is always on top of everything from scheduling to communication to edits. She doesn't skip a beat if the wind picks up, snow turns to rain or the alpenglow never appears as we experienced this last year in our family shoot! She rolls with it and makes everyone around her feel calm and I would never give another name or question the recommendation!

We have been…read morelucky enough to have her photograph our wedding, engagement, and family photos through the years. She is so wonderful at capturing the moment and making sure to get the shot before it's gone. She's great at guiding you for beautiful photos and she's an absolute pleasure to be around. She will make your wedding day special and not feel like a production. Highly recommend Jen Schmidt Photography for the Tahoe/Reno area!

Jen is amazing! She took our engagement and wedding photos and we couldn't have been happier. My…read morehusband is so incredibly uncomfortable taking photos usually because photographers can be a bit pushy and loud. Jen's personality and calm demeanor made him feel so comfortable and she captured some lovely photos because of how relaxed we both were. I grew up with a mom as a photographer and tend do do a fake forced smile when I'm taking photos. Not the case with Jen. Everything looked natural and her overall framing is gorgeous. She even put up with our crazy pups which is a lot to ask of someone. Her prices are reasonable and she gets you previews within days of the shoot which is awesome! Then you get a digital copy of all the photos which most photographers don't do as quickly as she di Definitely recommend!

I have written quite a few reviews (at anyplace possible) for Annie now, and still, I don't have…read moresufficient words for the magnitude of her AMAZING work! I repeatedly hear that they've never seen wedding photos as spectacular as ours, but that's merely because they haven't seen Annie's other wedding photos!!! :) When I think of wedding photos, I generally think of stale, static photos that are easily interchangeable by switching out the bride and groom, a few flowers, and colorful dresses. Annie's photos don't fall into this category! She is not a "wedding photographer" the way you generally think of wedding photographers. She is a brilliant photojournalist who will generously apply her artistry to your wedding. After first discovering her work, I can't stop looking at her pictures! I'm addicted to her blog to see all she's doing. They say a picture's worth 1000 words. Hers, on the other hand, leave me speechless!!! Check her out at http://anniexphoto.com

He was easy to communicate with, flexible with short notice, and showed up right on time. Martin has a laid-back style, which worked well for the atmosphere we had. He moved around the venue without being intrusive and captured a solid variety of shots--some were great,, others more candid and casual, which actually helped show the vibe of the event. He posted the photos quickly to his website, which made it easy for us to share with our team and guests. I appreciated how simple he made the whole process--no hassle, accepted electronic payment, and delivered as promised. Martin was dependable and professional without being stiff or overproduced. I'll definitely keep him in mind for future events and would recommend him to others looking for someone reliable who knows how to blend into the scene and get the job done.

I chose Aubrey because her work is beautiful and very reasonably priced. She made the whole experience so fun and she was just awesome to work with! And WOW she made us feel so beautiful. We are so happy with the photos and I will definitely find a reason to do another session with her. On another note - I really like the fact that she takes so many photos and they're all included in the price. I didn't have to purchase them separately which I've seen a lot of other photographers do. Highly recommend! Thank you Aubrey!
