We were actually down to 2 to choose from, but my husband and I decided to go with this business after seeing their portfolio online.

She was easy to work with and we have amazing shots from every event she did for us. She also did a shoot a month before my Mom's wedding where my Mom and I went to Glamour Shots got our makeup done then got in our dresses for my Mom's wedding and did shoot. It was nice to have the mother/daughter photos where it was just us. We also did the same thing before my wedding to do a test run on hair and makeup. LOVE those Mother/Daughter photo shoots.

I took a chance and went with GimenoBrown Photography and am extremely happy with the results. We brought our three daughters and took family photos. One of our daughters was graduating high school that year so we brought her gown and she quickly changed so we could squeeze in some pics of her too. Allexis was perfectly fine with this and tried to hurry so we could still make it in about an hour. Her website allows you to download in high resolution so the pictures come out looking amazing. We downloaded everything and printed at Walgreens for about $20. The quality came out amazing and we have them saved to our computer. Thinking about using them for Xmas cards also. Allexis kept the whole shoot fun. She was able to get the girls and us interacting and it was really a good time. Not only did the pictures come out amazing but it was a day that we will always remember. I highly recommend.
