Looking for a photographer to catch the best moments in your life? Karen is it!…read more From emails, texts and our entire session you will feel great with the decision in having Karen be your photographer. I wish I found her sooner. But happy she was able to capture our last miracle baby. The photos are just so amazing and I can't stop looking at them. We drove from Oakley to have her do our photos, her studio is perfect and she has everything. Which is worth it because I for one am forgetful which I forgot to bring our diaper bag! Thankfully Karen came to the rescue with diapers. She has all the cute and fun things to make your photos meet your vision and then some. All my kids are rainbow babies and the rainbow photo has 7 hearts which is how many angels we have and Karen came up with the idea of adding an extra heart to make it mean more. Which made me start to tear up, our last miracle rainbow baby showed the love to not only his big sisters but to his siblings in heaven. Karen is also super sweet and we had so much to talk about during our session. My eldest daughter who is on the spectrum. I ended up learning a few things from her to help our journey in her school. You feel like she is a friend the whole time, which is something I love in a photographer is a friendly connection. She loves what she does and she's really good with kids of all ages. You won't regret choosing Karen to take photos of your family. It will be the best decision in preserving memories for generations to see.

She made us feel so comfortable and took such wonderful care of our baby. Her vision for the photos was amazing. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a professional photoshoot.

We haven't seen the final pics, but got to see some of the amazing shots she took on the camera during the process. They were phenomenal. We shopped around for photographers before choosing her and found her to be very affordable. The location of her studio was easy to get to, although not wheelchair accessible since it is upstairs. Next time we do a session, it will probably be outdoors on location somewhere because she does that too! All around great experience and will definitely be taking photos with her again!!!

They are super easy to work with, not pushy, and very relaxed. Amari is always looking for a photo with the best lighting in it while Madelynn is cracking jokes and taking candid ones while you are unaware. They do such a great job at capturing the intended photos and my personal favorite, the ones that you don't know are being taken. I cannot recommend them enough, they even stayed and danced a bit at the reception. Needless to say they were an absolute hit with us and with everyone at the wedding as well. Much love y'all! You da best!

Madelynn and Amari are THE BEST…read more We were recommended to them by another photographer and are so happy to have their warm spirit and presence during our special day. They are passionate about capturing the organic moments that make a wedding day truly memorable and they are DAMN good at it! Their body of work speaks for itself - they are true storytellers and experts in their craft. Our first meeting over dinner to discuss our vision for our wedding, love story and our lives was such a great conversation, we would have gone on for the rest of the night if it wasn't a school night. You know you're in good company when you're hanging out with the folks who've shot Rock the Bells :) The best part? They go above and beyond for their couples. We had a family member who was hospitalized on our wedding day and they drove us to the hospital so we could check on her in the ER. They roll with the punches and for that, we are so grateful. They became an integral part of our wedding family, complete with extra hairpins and holding onto an extra pair of shoes for the bride for our afterparty. Our guests were impressed by their professionalism, efficiency, and warmth and they even impressed my mother (who is HARD to impress). We cannot recommend Foot Candles enough!

Laurel is SUCH an artist. If you're worried about disrupting your newborn to get good photos, DONT! Laurel really takes her time, she has the room so warm and cozy for your baby, soft music playing and a sound machine going. Just when I thought she couldn't be more of an artist I realized that she is also a baby whisperer. It you're hoping to capture the most beautiful photos of some of the most special moments in your life, USE LAUREL. Cannot speak highly enough. I also want to note that Laurel is SO easy to work with. She does such an amazing job to help guide the shoots, telling you where to look & how to pose. She takes all of the work out of it and makes it a truly enjoyable experience! I wish I could give her more stars. 10/10 recommend!
