I loved…read moreseeing the photo examples she put up on her website of past clients which gives a great overview of what to expect. While I'm not sure if Lauren focuses on just animals or life events like weddings also, this review is just about her pet photography. We began emailing each other to set up a shoot with our six month old puppy before he gets older and can no longer capture his youthfulness. My wife and I talked about locations we were interested in, one of us wanted water shots and the other in the grass. It was Lauren who suggested we go to the beach where we could get both types so that is what we did. After a little back and forth with some scheduling conflicts on both ends, we decided on a weekend which likely works well for most clients. We received a list of do's and don'ts before the shoot that was super helpful. Items I had never thought of like bringing his favorite toy as a distraction to getting to the site early and running off a bit of energy so it'll be easier for the dog to settle down and take photos of. Upon arrival, we met in the parking lot of our agreed upon location and headed out on a cold evening around sunset. We had been there for about a half hour beforehand to do what she suggested and it worked wonders on settling our pup down. While it was tough to get him to look at Lauren at times, she had along her own bag of tricks including toys and a whistle so he would pay attention to her and not his owners. We tried all sorts of different locations and poses of him and it worked like a charm, even if I had to jump in and entice the dog with a treat. I've seen some previews and I'm very happy with the session, we are moving to a planning phase of buying some canvases and prints to put all around our home with an in-person meeting scheduled to review the proofs. Lauren uses another local studio to get the prints from. I highly recommend her for a very particular type of photography and if you need any excuse to look at some adorable animals to picture what your dog (or cat? or hedgehog? or billy goat?) may look like in high quality shots, simply check out what she has up on her website.

I'm not sure exactly how he does it, but he always captures that perfect shot. He's quick on his feet with goofy tricks to get kids to smile and magically charms a newborn better than many a seasoned mom. It's clear he's got lots of experience with all types of family photography, and his wedding photos are phenomenal. I love working with David and will continue to use him in the years to come!

I am so happy with the quality of the photos and the moments captured. They are also just such great people who truly care about your special day. I would choose Heather Nicole Photography a hundred times over. Cannot recommend her enough! Thank you so much for everything Heather and Mike, you're truly the best.

Personally, I have not had very much experience with many professional photographers (unless we're…read moretalking about the ones that come to your grade schools to take yearbook photos) but as a bride, I definitely did have an idea of what our perfect photographer would be like. Heather Nicole met and exceeded all the expectations we had for a photographer on our wedding day. Let's start with the worry of whether or not we were going to click with our photographer. Especially for a wedding, your photographer and you as a couple have to click. They have to listen to what you want, write it down/remember, keep in touch throughout the planning process, get what your vision is, be able to make suggestions that go with that vision and make you feel like they'll get all the photos you want so that on your wedding day you don't even have to think about it. Heather Nicole definitely did that for us. After the initial email with her when we hadn't even officially hired her yet I could tell getting along with her and trusting her to do what we wanted would be a breeze. Heather is so sweet and personable and honest, I don't see how anyone could not get along with her. Once you work with her, you feel like you've known her forever and it's like working with an old friend. During all the emails and phone correspondence that we had you could tell that, even though she does this every day, she is genuinely happy for each couple individually and connects with each couple differently. She never made me feel like we were just another client. I remember one phone call in particular how excited she was for the surprises I had planned for my husband and wanted her to get good photos of. Again, it felt like I was talking to a friend about it. My husband and I were thrilled with all of our pictures, both our engagement and wedding photos. They were all so easy as Heather tells you exactly what to do, where to stand, etc etc and the photos come out nothing short of perfect. She is good at giving you a timeline of when they'll be ready and sticking to it. She's also great at giving you so many options for viewing, purchasing and showing off all your photos. I really have nothing negative to say about her. We would absolutely recommend her as a photographer for whatever event you may need one for. You won't regret it.

Courtney is a professional. She was able to delight and charm two frazzled parents and a 10 day old. She coaxed us into position and captured priceless photo after priceless photo of our baby boy. Looking back scheduling a newborn photography session was not at the top of my baby prep list. It is the one thing I will be sure to tell all of my pregnant friends. Schedule a session with Courtney before the baby arrives so that you can capture the itty bitty fingers, toes, and faces forever. We sent out announcements using one of the photos that Courtney took. We received more compliments and were told many times by friends and family members that it was the best baby photo they had ever seen. The memories that Courtney captured will forever be cherished and I encourage everyone reading this review to call Soul Focus now and book an appointment.
