I wish I could give more than 5 stars for these amazing artists!…read more I was initially a bit hesitant about whether it would be worth it to spend the time and money to take maternity portraits; a dear friend encouraged me to take the leap, and I am so so glad I decided to and even more delighted that I found Glow Portraits. If you are considering it and can budget for it, let me be the one to encourage you to DO IT. Thank me later :) Communication was superb. Sophie responds very quickly to questions via phone and email from before booking to session prep to post shoot follow up. Anabella, our photographer, was incredible. She made the experience a complete pleasure, and gave very precise directions that made for simply stunning shots. I often feel a bit awkward on camera, but somehow she got both me and my love posing like pros. The makeup artist also did a truly beautiful job. The proofs and finished images are beyond gorgeous. It was so tough to choose our favorites (we ended up buying some extra images because there were too many we loved). If you're looking at the galleries on their site (like I was) and wondering whether your images can possibly come out as ethereal and magical, the answer is YES. 6/5 stars for the amazing team at Glow Portraits. Thank you for everything!!!

WOW, what an incredible experience from start to finish…read more I booked a maternity session, but unfortunately, my daughter arrived two months early and I had to cancel it. I was heartbroken -- not just because I missed the chance to document my pregnancy, but because everything felt so overwhelming at the time. But what truly blew me away was the kindness and care Sophie showed. She continued to check in on me and my baby as time went on including throughout our NICU journey. A year later, I reached back out to book a baby session -- and it turned out to be even more special. Not only did I finally get the experience and memories that I'd dreamed of, but I got to share it with my daughter who is now healthy, thriving, and full of life. The final photos are absolutely breathtaking, and I will be forever grateful to Sophie and the team at glow portraits for turning such a difficult chapter in my life into beautiful memories that we can cherish forever.

From the start, Stephanie was incredibly organized and thoughtful. She shared helpful prep info ahead of the shoot and made sure I felt comfortable and prepared going in. During the sessions she gave clear guidance on posing and expression, which made the whole process feel natural fun and relaxed - especially helpful if you're someone who isn't used to being in front of the camera! What stood out most was how supportive and encouraging she was throughout the shoot. She has a great eye for lighting and small adjustments that make a big difference in how the photos turn out. The final images came out beautiful - polished, natural and exactly the kind of elevated look I was hoping for. From beginning, middle and end, Stephanie creates a comfortable and positive environment. She cares about helping people feel confident and their "best selves" in front of the camera, I would definitely recommend booking with her and would return again!

She planned a very well-thought out fitness/yoga photo shoot. She talked to me prior to the shoot to find out exactly what I needed and guided me to make sure I was prepared with everything on my end. Noelle came up with amazing ideas for everything from headshots to detail shots to action shots. She also found amazing outdoor locations that were the perfect backdrop for the photos. She was both professional and fun to be around during the shoot. Even though I normally don't like getting my picture taken, she found a way to make the experience relaxed and even fun. The final result was an archive of pictures that far exceeded my expectations. They have been a huge asset to me in getting my digital content started for my new business. Thank you Femina, for both the wonderful experience and the amazing product you provided.

Short version - There is nothing I can write that can truly capture just how incredible the Femina…read moreladies are. Even calling them incredible is an understatement. If you want to work with the most amazing photographers, true visionaries, and all-around fantastic human beings, hire them immediately. From beginning to end, we had the BEST experience working with them for our wedding. Longer version explaining how they're perfect in every. single. way. - First, we worked with Nicole to select a package and book our date. LOVE her. She was extremely friendly and patient as I asked her a million questions. They have 3 packages to start with as a reference, but she was beyond flexible and helped us customize a package that perfectly fit our needs. Next, we had our engagement shoot with Kamila. It's impossible to not love Kamila. Impossible. Within minutes, she made us feel SO comfortable. As we were leaving Central Park after we finished with the photos, it started POURING, and instead of running for cover, Kamila whipped out a clear umbrella and said "oh, I love rain photos!" I left the engagement shoot feeling like we're best friends and wanting to invite her to the wedding as a guest, but she was too amazing of a photographer for us to do that. We normally hate how we look in photos, but we LOVED the ones Kamila took. Then we started working with Noelle leading up to our wedding day. She quickly became one of my favorite people on this planet as well. She was BEYOND helpful, kind, friendly, easy to work with, and patient answering all our questions...and a lot of them weren't even directly related to wedding photos. She even helped me pick out which earrings to wear on my wedding day!!! Now the wedding day - we had Noelle and Kamila, aka the best photographers and humans on this planet. They were SO on top of their game, yet they had such a calming presence. Everyone felt so comfortable and confident in their care. They had the perfect balance of directing us when they needed to and capturing truly candid moments. Next, the PHOTOS. They delivered the full gallery to us WEEKS earlier than we were expecting!! We are absolutely in LOVE with every. single. photo. They did SUCH an incredible job capturing the joy of the day, from the details to getting ready to formals to cocktail hour to the reception. I don't even know how they got all those candid dance floor shots without us noticing!! Their attention to detail and ability to capture the PERFECT shot at the PERFECT time with the PERFECT light is just unreal. I'm somebody who is extremely indecisive and second-guesses every decision, and I did not second-guess our decision to use Femina for a single second. I would recommend them in a heartbeat, and I will forever be grateful that they (1) were hands-down some of the best people to work with, and (2) gave us such incredible photos that truly allow us to relive the best day of our lives. We can't thank them enough!!
