the GOAT of headshots…read more tl;dr - if you want a solid headshot with someone that can help you look your best, stop looking. You found her. It's Cara. I've been to Cara twice now to get different sets of headshots. I've never done headshots before. Here is how she made it easy: 1. Clear instructions ahead of time on how to show up looking your best. 2. She let me shoot in several outfits when I was unsure, and helped me work through what I liked about each look. 3. I have no clue how to position my head in a photo. Cara guided me through everything in a low-pressure comfortable environment. 4. There was no pressure to buy more or less. I actually bought more than I thought I wanted because they came out so well. 5. She's just a good person who will put you at ease and make the experience enjoyable! go see her if you need a photo, you won't regret it!

She has always captured amazing candid photos of my boys even if the behind the scenes could be tricky. This past spring she also captured my sisters wedding and the photos came out amazing. The ring bearers (which were my boys) may not have posed for many photos but she knows how to work with them and got some very cute/handsome pictures! She is great to work with, super relaxed, and willing to try any ideas thrown her way. I look forward to our yearly session! Thanks Kim! -Hannah R.

There are no words to describe what an absolute joy Melissa was to work with for our wedding and…read morehow extremely talented she is. For so long I dreamt of having pictures of our wedding that captured our love, our family, our friend, and that I felt beautiful in. The pictures that Melissa took far exceed every expectation that I had and then some! It started with a phone call and I immediately felt very comfortable with Melissa like I was talking to a friend I had known for years as I described our day and some of the personalities of our wedding guests. She assured me it wouldn't be a problem at all and she was absolutely right. From start to finish, Melissa was amazing at communicating with us and provided us with some suggestions that helped our day flow smoothly and ensured that we got all the pictures we wanted. The day of the wedding, Melissa fit right in with my family and friends, which made everyone very relaxed, and she went above and beyond to make things comfortable. She was also extremely flexible as we ran slightly behind schedule that day. I was also amazed with how quickly she sent us our pixie set. To say our pictures were breathtaking is an understatement! She truly captured our love in each picture and allowed us to relive our day through the pictures. I cried looking at some of the pictures because they were just so beautiful. We were extremely happy from start to finish and I can't recommend her enough. We can't wait to work with Melissa again in the future!

I'm not what you would call a "girlie girl," so the idea of picking out outfits and posing for photos was completely new and a bit scary for me. We started with a phone call and Michael did a great job of walking me through outfit choices and suggestions. The day of, I met him at his studio. He was absolutely delightful. Professional, respectful, funny, calming, and flattering, the perfect combination to calm you down and make you feel good about yourself. He knew exactly what to say to help me relax and get the shot. What I loved most was the process. Due to the way the studio is set up, we could take a series of photos, then go and sit down and take a look at the photos. This allowed for us to discuss lighting, colors, and positioning. Before taking another series. After I choose the photos I was happy with, Michael "finalized them" with some minor edits and emailed me the final photos. Even then he was willing to make some changes. Overall, I was pleasantly surprised by the experience. Something I initially dreaded turned into an amazing and even fun time. I highly recommend Michael and will definitely return for future photography needs.

Hey you. Yes, YOU. Are you using a selfie for your LinkedIn profile? It's OK. Michael Epaul…read morephotography can fix that. It was time for me to get some corporate headshots and my employer was not about to spend any money in hiring a professional for me. I decided I owed it to myself to put my best face forward. I searched for portrait photographers with a studio in Springfield, and Michael Epaul came up. First, I will say, that this trend of photographers not having a studio baffles me. I would never consider someone a professional if they did not have a professional work space! That being said, Michael Epaul Photography has a gorgeous, cozy studio, so you don't have to worry about a setting. For the ladies, or anyone interested, hair & makeup can be added to your session. This worked out well because it took the pressure off me of having to arrive at the studio in perfect condition. And then the headshots began. From start to finish, the process was streamlined. Prompt communication via text and/or email worked very well. I was given about 20 pictures to choose from; I picked one and was given 2 versions of it. And don't tell anyone, but....Michael was able to ahem....touch up things about me in a natural way (aka he took away the 10 lbs the camera adds). Overall, very satisfied with this portrait session and look forward to doing business with this photographer in the future. NOTE: on site parking, accepts credit cards, and photographer does more than just portraits (weddings mitzvahs and more!)

Good pictures start from being at ease and Carrie will definitely put you at ease. Even from the first consultation, she makes you feel like you are the only client and the only one that matters. Her pictures are amazing and every now and then she'll say "Let me try something" - those will be the best pictures. One thing I was not expecting was for her to help me draw up a timeline for the day. I didn't have a wedding planner and kind of cobbled it all together myself. Carrie, based on all her experience, advised me on getting hair and makeup done earlier (she was right), having the flowers delivered earlier (she was right again - especially since the delivery was running late), and leaving earlier to get to the church. As she said, no bride has ever complained about being too early. I wasn't too early at any stage and her timeline actually prevented me from being late and stressed out. The second photographer she came with (Dan) was just as great. After meeting him for the first time on the day of the wedding, I was instantly at ease with him in under 5 mins. I could go on and on but no one will read a super long review. Bottom line - book Carrie. You won't regret it!
