Working with Robin was absolutely amazing…read more My (now) husband and I had a civil ceremony at Rochester City Hall, so it was a quick affair, but we wanted to have it well documented, so we reached out to Robin.

I have worked with Lauren as our event photographer since 2013. I've hired her to photograph over…read more50 of our events. AMAZING. She's so easy to work with, responsive via email when I reach out about upcoming opportunities, and prompt. She always clearly sets expectations and pricing for what she can provide, how long it will take her to edit and send the photos, which always come through Dropbox in a timely manner. If there are occasions where she isn't available, she's provided recommendations for other photographers with a similar style. Any opportunity to recommend her to people seeking event or wedding photographers, she's the gal I suggest. Can't wait to continue this relationship for many occasions to come!

She was easy to communicate with and was prompt at answering any questions. Our package included engagement photos so we were able to meet and work with Lauren before the wedding and get comfortable working together. Right away I knew we had made a good choice in hiring Lauren. She coordinated everything, helped us decide on a beautiful location for the pictures and put us at ease being in front of the camera. Come the day of the wedding it felt more like Lauren was a friend rather than a vendor. She did a great job of organizing and keeping our wedding party and families on task. No easy feat! Lauren was able to get beautiful photos of every aspect of the wedding without ever being intrusive. I would highly recommend Lauren to anyone looking for professional photographer.

My husband and I are still getting compliments on the photo we chose as our thank you card. (See below) I like how he sits you down to discuss your wedding vision.

Recently I needed to get a professional head shot and wanted to get a high end look that is…read moredifficult to find without heading to New York or L.A. I heard good things about One Sharp Joe and decided to give them a go--and I'm so glad that I did. I am not particularly keen on having my picture taken but from the very start, Joe made me feel very much at ease on the other side of the lens. He has a way of quickly building rapport and trust as he draws you into the posing process. I am no professional model, but he made me feel like one. The end result was even better than I had hoped and I really couldn't be happier with the final shots. If you are looking for a portrait that rises far above the mundane, you would do well to give One Sharp Joe a try. Highly recommended!

Let me start by saying if you need a sign to book Loraleah and Courtney Geist for your wedding…read more. this is your sign BOOK THEM. My wife and I got married in the Florida Keys and they traveled down to shoot our wedding for us. They are an absolute killer duo. To start, they were both amazing to work with, super easy to contact, so dang friendly and welcoming. I couldn't think of two better people to capture our big day. Photo and video were such a big thing for us on our wedding day, and even though we've seen so much of their work and loved it, they legit blew us away with their talent and expertise. They kept the energy so light and fun during our newlywed photos after a high stress few hours prior. They put on some of our favorite music so we could feel ourselves and loosen up during our photos. They are also both super LGBT friendly. My wife and I were super worried about who we were going to book since we are gay and we wanted to be comfortable. They were an instant vibe, sooo friendly, supportive, gay friendly and never made us feel weird for a single second (which is huge when you're being photographed)!!! They were there for us through the whole planning process to look out for us and lead us in the right direction with our timeline, etc. The ALSO partied harddddddd with us on the dance floor and made sure to capture the sickest dance floor shots for us which was so important for us to hold onto so we could look back on. Don't skimp out on cheap photography and videography, you will regret it!!! Spend the money and book these two because they are unreal!!!
