    Our cozy home sesh

    This review is long overdue! Emily is not only a fantastic photographer, but she's also friendly and personable. My husband and I have two younger children; she was great with them. Before our scheduled date, Emily sent us a link to her website and tips on preparing for our shoot. Her website and all the resources she sent my way were so helpful. It didn't take me long to realize that she's super organized, informative, and aesthetic. We were scheduled for an outdoor photo shoot in March, but the rain came! Emily was quick to suggest a home photo shoot instead, and oh my goodness - it was perfect! She captured in-the-moment photos and suggested poses, too. She was also open to taking our ideas, which was kind! She was in and out in under 20 minutes, and the quality of her photos reveals her God-given talent. The images we received were all excellent! We couldn't just pick 5, so we purchased the entire gallery! It was well worth it! Did I mention she had the photos ready before the expected date?! We'll be returning to Emily for future photography sessions!

    Amazing! We are always happy with the quality of the images Emily captures of our family, the natural settings and her ability to capture the moment with our 2 energetic toddler sons Highly recommend!

    Emily is amazing! She captures beautiful images. She made us feel so comfortable and made it really easy on us. Can't wait to have another photo shoot.

    Best photographer in Whittier! I loved my pictures. I've done two photo sessions with Emily and love her style and is super friendly and gives great tips on what to wear to your photo sessions. Definitely recommended her for your weddings, engagement, family, and newborn pictures!

    Truth be told....I write this with a bit of a tear in my eye....not to get too melodramatic over a…read moreyelp review....but pictures...when done perfect and if your in a particular sentimental mood....can have that effect. Some backstory...Imagix/Michelle has done our yearly photos for our son from ages 1 to now 5. (See my past reviews). From somehow capturing a perfect moment from our perpetually moving blur of a son (ages 1-3) to patiently instructing four 70/80 year olds on how to hold their aforementioned 4 year old Tasmanian Devil grandson last year, Michelle is a magician/artist...I always leave the photoshoot stressed from the chaos Hurricane Daniel (our son) leaves in his wake....But every year we come back to look at the proofs and are amazed at Michelle ability to capture "lighting in a bottle" . This year was no different. Fortunately we survived the terrible 2's (...3's....4's....) and thanks to time, maturity, and the opposite of gentle parenting, our little Daniel, though far from perfect, is manageable. But we didn't want to make it too easy for Michelle, so we threw in another variable. After a recent canine cancer scare, and recently learning from Google that all dogs, however loyal and cute, unfortunately have an inescapable life, span, I somehow convinced my beautiful but camera shy wife that this is the year we do a family photo with our dog. Some more backstory, if you read this far, our Yorkie, Libby, loves us but HATES the rest of the world. She spent the entire hour photoshoot in perpetual scowl and Volume 11 non stop bark. One week later as she always does, lighting in a bottle perfection. I looked at the proofs with amazement. Our son, we expected....she's done it every year, but how she made a loud perpetual yapping bark into a impossibly cute smile is above my skill set. But I think her greatest feat is how she lessened the "he must be rich" looks gap between my wife and I. My wife is easy, even me with my amateur Android skills, it's hard for her to take a bad picture. Michelle mastery came with how she elevated me to "he must be funny" looks gap level. So why the tear? We loved one of the pics so much we purchased a large framed canvas print to hang on our living room wall. My 85 year old happened to be in town for his grandsons 5th bday so I asked him for an helping hand hanging the picture. I figured he has these family portrait hanging at my childhood home. My brother and I with our full head of hair and my mom shoulder pads captured the 90's to a tee...but what I always remember is the "proud" look my dad had on his face. A look of accomplishment shouting "look at me world and all that I love and created". Watching my aging dad struggle, listing to my aging dog bark in a locked room to protect my dad's ankles, I was suddenly reminded that time, as much as you want to hit pause, always moves forward. It's a good idea to stop and smell the roses, or in this case, look at the snapshot/memories/moments and take it all in. After my dad handed me the leveler and I put away the hammer, and I looked up....and yeah....I had that "Dad" look

The editorial touch that Edna embodies is superb. The photos were magazine quality. Above all else, she was an excellent collaborator and guide in capturing the vision that I had for our photos. On a day that is so important, it's best to hire the expert and leave nothing to chance. Edna is that person, hands-down.

    Do you see all the 5 Reviews from previous clients? There's a reason why. At the end of the day,…read moreyou want the best photos. Maybe you have a vision or an idea you want to shoot with Edna. She'll give you great recommendations and set you up with expections for your photo session. I've used Edna for years and the beautiful memories created of my two children when they were newborns were magical. I wanted a Chinese theme session and both times Edna hit it out the park with the breath taking still photos. To this day I have those images hung up in our Living Room. Those photos are special because as any parent will tell you those moments passes you by and you'll only have these investments of photographs to capture those precious timelines. We've also used Edna for holiday photos. Again, we've gotten many compliments from friends about how great those images were. If you're comparing photographers, don't look too far. Edna is patient, detail oriented, and a true professional. Just look at her work and see for yourself.

Nicolette and Elaine were very professional. She came highly recommended by a relative's photographer. While we were looking for photographers, we had a call with Nicolette. She was not telling us what we should do and listened to what we wanted and advised what worked best. She worked with the timeline our venue gave and knew where our venue was (very important). When we asked her 3 weeks before the wedding if we can have a second photographer, she made it happen. What really stood her apart is that we agreed on a start and end time and what photos we wanted for the wedding. During the wedding, she checked in with us informing us how much more time we have her and Elaine for, as well as which photos we are still missing (table to table). She made sure we don't regret not having a particular photo with people and also did it to make sure that we are aware of the time so that if we don't want overtime, we have all the photos we wanted. Nicolette sent us sneak peeks of our wedding photos and we're so excited to see the rest!

    Found Pose Palace on TikTok and decided to check it out for a family photoshoot with our…read morenewborn--and I'm so glad we did! We stopped by on a weekday in the late afternoon and practically had the place to ourselves. Another family arrived shortly after, but it was still very relaxed and easygoing. The process was super simple. You can make a reservation, but we just walked in without any issues. We did the white background setup for 15 minutes, which was perfect and definitely a must if you're taking photos with little kids. There were a few technical difficulties during our session, but the staff member was incredibly accommodating. He paused the timer and gave us those minutes back so we didn't lose any of our shoot time. The pricing is great too! The package includes 2 people and 3 printed 4x6 photos of your favorite shots. Additional people are only $5 each, but they didn't charge us for our toddler or newborn, which was such a nice surprise. One of the best parts is that you get access to download every single digital photo from your session, not just a select few. Overall, we had a wonderful experience and ended up with so many great family photos. definitely considering coming back for another shoot

The photo studio is located inside AR Galleria (the main galleria entrance was locked on Sunday afternoon so I had to enter through the side door via Cafe Lowell). [Parking]: Easy and free parking in the large plaza. [Reservation]: I was able to call and book a same-day reservation on Sunday. Visitors can also make an online reservation via the studio's website. Upon arrival, I scanned a QR code and signed a waiver before the owner started my 5-minute photo session. [Price]: $27 for 4 physical copies and digital copies to download via email (must be downloaded within 7 days). I did not initially receive an email, but I emailed the owner the next day about the download link and he sent a follow-up email with the link within a few hours (the email was hidden in my spam folder). The email included all the pictures taken during the session. The shop also makes photo keychains ($4+ each). The studio also offers 15-minute and 30-minute self-portrait sessions. [Studio]: While I was here for a passport photo, the studio mainly operates as a self-portrait studio where customers take photos of themselves. This small studio has all the props and camera setup needed to make it happen. [Process]: The owner had me sit on a chair and took 7 pictures. Out of the 7 pictures taken, I was able to choose one for him to print while the rest of pictures can be downloaded via a link in an email. It was more important to receive a digital copy because the US passport renewal process requires applicants to upload a digital photo rather than submit a physical copy. I was able to use one of the digital copies and now that same picture will be on my passport for the next 10 years before the next renewal timeline. [Conclusion]: Overall it was an efficient process and I was able to walk in and out within 15 minutes. However, it would be helpful for the studio to provide additional entry instructions on the website when the main galleria entrance is locked.

She took her time throughout the entire session and never made us feel rushed. Our toddler wasn't initially interested in being in the photos, but Nicole was so patient and engaging that she was able to make her smile, participate, and capture some truly precious sibling and family photos. Toward the end of the session, our newborn started getting fussy. Instead of trying to rush through the remaining poses, Nicole patiently waited for him to calm down and fall asleep. Thanks to her experience and patience, we were able to get the beautiful swaddled sleeping photos we had hoped for. Her studio is beautiful, professional, and thoughtfully set up with everything a family could need during a newborn session. The extra snacks and refreshments were such a thoughtful touch and were especially appreciated by our daughter! Nicole's patience, professionalism, and genuine care made the entire experience enjoyable from start to finish. We will treasure these photos forever and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a talented newborn and family photographer.
