He was easy to communicate with, flexible with short notice, and showed up right on time. Martin has a laid-back style, which worked well for the atmosphere we had. He moved around the venue without being intrusive and captured a solid variety of shots--some were great,, others more candid and casual, which actually helped show the vibe of the event. He posted the photos quickly to his website, which made it easy for us to share with our team and guests. I appreciated how simple he made the whole process--no hassle, accepted electronic payment, and delivered as promised. Martin was dependable and professional without being stiff or overproduced. I'll definitely keep him in mind for future events and would recommend him to others looking for someone reliable who knows how to blend into the scene and get the job done.

This was definitely the right decision for us!! Daniel knows the area very well & knew exactly where to meet for her pictures. He arrived on time, the meadow was an amazing choice! He captured the light beautifully setting behind the trees but keeping my daughter the spotlight. He was great with hand placement & we were very comfortable with him. And the pictures turned out FANTASTIC! He delivered the sneak peak just as he said he would, followed up with the edited pictures for us in a timely manner. If he were closer to us (we are in Illinois), we would use him for all of our pictures.

We definitely plan to work with him again in the future!

Weddings are expensive and an investment, so I expect to get a good return on it. At the beginning for our engagement pics all was cool and I feeling confident about using her services. My wedding was kinda still during the height of covid, but everything seemed to be going well until the week of my wedding when I rec'd a text from her that she was not going to be able to shoot at my wedding bc she wasn't feeling well. I obviously was upset bc my contract was with her, but I had to be understanding of the situation too. What I didn't like was I had to trust a colleague of hers (Heather) who I had never met and didn't meet until my wedding day to take the best pictures possible. She did mediocre, and didn't capture very many couples pics nor family pics. (So glad I had relatives and friends who brought cameras. Most took better pics than the paid photographer, but I didn't pay them, I paid Kindred Souls for quality pics). She kinda rushed through our main pics and all the outdoor pics are hideous. Amber stated though she couldn't shoot my wedding, she'd do the editing, but she was sooo hard to get a hold of regarding status of my prints and just communication PERIOD! My wedding was in September and I didn't get my photos till mid December. I'd say I'm patient, but 4 months is ridiculous. When I sent my favorites back to her for editing I advised her they were not the clearest they could be and were too dark and to reedit. Here we are at the end of February and I still haven't heard back from Amber. Truly UNprofessional, poor customer service and a bad look on this business. They don't have to worry about me referring ANYONE to them! A waste of almost $1800, sigh.

It took us 26 years to realize our own attempts at family photos didn't capture the experiences the way we wished they did. My wife and I decided to get a professional pictures taken this year. We came across Danielle's website and were attracted to her work with large families as well as being a local to the kings beach area. As soon as we met Danielle, we knew it was going to be a good fit. Her humor was very similar to ours, and she knew how to apply the right amount mixed with direction to keep the process flowing. Our family covered 4 generations, with ages ranging from 84 to 18months. She was able to limit the impact and movement to the older folks while providing a treasure chest of little toys to entice the little ones. The pictures were painless, even with a group 20+ pale, squinty eyed people! After the shoot, approx 4 hrs later, Danielle returned with a projector, screen and ipad to review the photos and let us make our choices. It was so fun to sit around with the family and see the final product. This was a no pressure consultation and there was no upselling. We chose to go with a digital package allowing, us to share with the large family. We had to promise to get them printed (anywhere) eventually so they could be enjoyed and looked at every day. We continuously get complements on our photos. We also get some disbelief thinking that pictures that good can't be real. "There's no way that background is real", "That's not REALLY at Tahoe, is it?" I can't say enough good things about Danielle. She was a perfect fit for our family and I highly recommend her. As our kids grow (3 and 1.5 now) we'll definitely use her in the future.

One-on-one lessons with John were the perfect step. His approach is all about efficiency and storytelling, which I found to be an excellent balance of pragmatic and creative. The one-on-one format allowed me to get the most tailored information- nothing was review for me, but, rather, my classes contained a personally-tailored firehose of new and relevant information! I especially recommend his class if you shoot with any kind of mirrorless Fujifilm camera. That's his specialty, and fortunately, what I shoot with as well. You can't beat expert advice with the very tool you use the most. All in all, if you're looking for the next step to take to improve your skill, a class with John is a great investment.

I was lucky in being able to see him work from a wedding coordinator's point of view before I saw him from a bride's point of view. The minute I saw his photos in 2015 (just on his camera's display screen) I knew that I wanted Joe and Monique to photograph my future wedding (and I wasn't even engaged yet!). Flash forward to February 2016, I was finally engaged and my first choice was Joe. The absolute selling point was how amazingly well Joe and Monique got along with my now husband and I. Hiring Joseph Hummel Photography was, by far, one of the EASIEST decisions while planning our wedding. We chose quality over quantity and it worked out in our favor. He is worth every penny, and made both of us feel extremely comfortable and like we were his only clients. Not once did he use the words "I'm too busy at the moment" which I have heard several other photographers say. Joe and Monique went ABOVE and BEYOND all of our expectations of wedding photographers and that didn't change at any point leading up to and during the wedding. We got married at Winter's Creek at Mt. Rose, and Joe took the natural beauty of the lodge and the view into consideration with every photo that he took. I would hire him again and again and I will suggest him to my future clients.

I came across Lin and felt an instant connection when we first talked on the phone. One of the first things that led me to want to hear more about her work was viewing her other maternity photoshoots and knowing she had maternity gowns clients could borrow for the shoot! On our first phone call she was so amazing and already was getting ideas that corresponded to exactly what I was looking for in photos. Also, if you get the package to have access to all the photos (very much worth it) she goes through and edits ALL of them!!! This is different than many other photographers who may edit just like 20-30 photos and then allow you to have access to all the raw photos. On the photoshoot, we went to Tahoe and she was very well organized - she already knew shots she wanted to get, knew exactly how to use the natural light to her advantage, and if she saw an opportunity for a great photo she didn't plan she went for it! You could literally see the passion, creativity, and drive she has for this craft! She goes out of her way to make you feel comfortable and to get the most epic shots possible! I highly recommend using her for any of your photography needs!
