Natalie was the first to respond and she answered my questions in a very timely manner. She also made suggestions based on my requests which was very helpful since I've never done an outdoor photoshoot before. On the day of the photoshoot, Natalie was on time which is always a plus for me because I hate waiting when an appointment is made. I enjoyed our conversation, it made me feel more at ease as it wasn't only about business. She is very creative in choosing the areas to take photos. My photos turned out great and I am very appreciative of the fact that she followed up instead of just sending the photos and being done. That is true customer service! Pricing is very good for the level of service you get, I will definitely be using Natalie in the near future.

Veronica has a remarkable talent with henna - she can copy your idea or create something…read morespontaneously and make it really flow nicely! She has done both for me and I love the designs she has created. It's like getting the symbolism and beauty of an ink tattoo without having to look at it permanently for the rest of my life. They last a couple of weeks if you take care of them (she gives great information about caring for your henna design to help it look good and last as long as possible.) I live part time in India where henna designs are done on hands as part of wedding festivities. Veronica at Hennatopia does some of the traditional India wedding designs, but she also has more Arabic style patterns available (I like them best myself) as well as modern designs, symbols and even some pretty cool Steam Punk images! This is reminding me that I need to get some henna done again soon. It really is kind of addicting to have pretty, decorative art that changes with time and reflects your current mood. A lot of her stuff is done with essential oils and even smells wonderful (but she has scent free henna available too apparently.) I highly recommend henna and Hennatopia in particular if you're in the Portland area! You get lots of positive comments and complements when people see your lovely designs and it makes you feel super special!

My husband and I - both in our early 70's - had been asked by my 93 year old mom to have…read moreprofessional pictures of ourselves taken. Clearly a request to be granted, but fraught with a lot of doubts about how we would show up in photos at this stage of our lives! We researched several photographers and chose Denyce and Something Blue Photography from reviews. We went in for an initial conversation and thus began an incredibly fun, impressive, and thoroughly satisfying experience. My husband had two B&W family photos from the 60's that he treasured and asked Denyce about our creating something that mirrored them. We also wanted color photos for us and our family. Denyce - who very clearly has perfected her art to a high degree and has a trove of knowledge to draw from - was intrigued by the B&W project and was excited about doing it. For the color photos, she asked good questions about what we wanted to convey, where we would use them, and took the time to get to know us. My husband - who was less excited about this project - got completely engaged with it! We quickly decided that we wanted to work with Denyce. The day of the photo session, she had a wonderful person - Korina - come in to do my makeup. I could have done it myself but preferred having someone do it right for the photos. We brought in many possible outfits that Denyce helped us choose from. We laughed a lot as Denyce used different backgrounds in the studio, had us sitting, standing, hugging and many other playful things that relaxed us and brought out our comfort with each other. For the B&W photos, the poses were more serious, and she adapted to lighting - all to mimic the old photos. When we came in to review the photos, we were nervous. What if we didn't like how we looked?? Well, no worry. She had made us look terrific!! She had a good process of helping us cull down all the options and we came down to 5. We ordered prints and she has a mobile app where we could share all 5 with friends and family ("look kids, we actually look pretty darn good!") Cost: Denyce had outlined this to us at the beginning. There is a sitting fee and then the total cost depends on what you order. With the sitting fee you get a credit towards your prints. It was an investment and we found it reasonable and well (!) worth it. We were thrilled. We highly recommend Denyce and Something Blue Photography.
