My name is Sunja and I came across Mandy's work online looking for a maternity photographer in…read moreWilmington. Really liked the pictures and reached out. Initially she responded and we were supposed to speak over the phone but I never heard back so I followed up. She then did and we ended up speaking. I asked her to send me an invoice so we can lock in the date but she didn't for a while so I followed up again. She then did. Then the week of our scheduled photoshoot I saw the weather wouldn't be good on our shooting day and I texted her to hop on quick phone call to discuss further and potentially see how we can make it happen or pick a couple other shooting day options. Again no response for days who knows if I didn't reach out maybe longer. I reached out a third and final time to request a refund which I haven't received yet. I'm baffled by the fact that Mandy is running a business and lacking basic good communication, I've been repeatedly experiencing a lack of responsiveness in this short time of working together which has left wondering, kind of stressed and certainly taking all the joy out of it for me all while being in my last trimester of my pregnancy. She specializes in working with pregnant people and new moms, I just don't understand the lack of consideration and professionalism. Save yourself the headache and work with another photographer. I wish I did, now I'm running out of time hoping to find someone else to work with for a maternity shoot while still pregnant all last minute. Quite Upsettin!

Mandy was very nice and pleasant to work with.

It felt like a very bad experience to see all your amazing photos and have them blocked, after a very costly upfront fee. Our family photo shoot ended up costing us $750.

It would be impossible for me to list everything that I loved about my daughter's senior photo…read moresession with Susie that I loved. Before the session, I emailed Susie about her policies and what I was wanting in my daughter's photos. Susie was so clear about how her photo sessions go, her pricing, and what we would receive (digital photos and what we were allowed to do with them). She made my daughter feel so comfortable during the session and as a result, my daughter who often has a fake smile had some of the most beautiful photos she's ever had done The scenery Susie chose was gorgeous. And when unexpected weather came in on our first appointment, she was very quick to reschedule for us. I cannot recommend her enough

While we had a list of a few things, mainly normal wedding photos with family members, Leanne was excellent in getting those candid shots that we were really hoping for. We just had our three year anniversary and I was looking back through our album and am blown away by her talent and eye for detail. As someone who doesn't feel especially photogenic, Leanne's direction and warmth helped put me at ease and she did an amazing job capturing my best side ;) .

Amy's talent is second to none. The photographs we received are classic and their composition will make them stand the test of time. Amy's work is heirloom quality. She can magically capture the emotion of the moment, whether it be tender, joyful, triumphant, pensive. Her ability to be in tune with her subjects makes her work so very human and relatable. Amy tells your story through pictures. I am not sure how, but she does. Amy is beyond professional. She is a joy to be around and her lighthearted spirit puts everyone at ease. Hard working is an inadequate term. She arrives early, stays late, and absolutely refuses to deliver a product that is less than perfect. Topsail Photography will be my family's lifelong photographer, and should be yours as well.

She is never available at our times, canceled one appt 1 hour before scheduled time and last appt. on July 15th she never showed, when it was discovered on her website she had an event already booked at the same time! She actually tried to pass the blame to my daughter for her (Courtney's) lack of professionalism. We have decided due to months of trying to get our "award" honored that it is not worth it. After all, a gift certificate does not have any financial benefit, and we are uncomfortable with the idea of having our treasured photos taken by this "business"... I do not recommend this business, research for the one that best fills your needs and wants.
