I just had my first baby (yay!) Of course my wife wants to…read moreget newborn pictures (I am worried about cheesy pictures). But- we found Oh Snap! Photography by Amy (yay!) We had our photo session- and the pictures are not cheesy- they are actually very tasteful. We also had a lot of excellent portrait pictures done of the three of us, and other family members. She is very professional (she's been doing this 3 years!), extremely talented, and took away all my anxiety of getting these pictures done. I still have my man card. I am definitely going to be using her in the future to document my baby growing up. Look no further when looking for newborn/baby/child photography. I would have had my wife do her maternity pictures there too had I discovered her before!

I just had a baby and wanted to of course get great pictures as a newborn (and also for someone to…read moretake some maternity shots) and someone referred me to Oh Snap! Photography by Amy. She is one stop shopping for the above (and also for pictures of our baby as he gets older!). We just had our photo session and we could not be happier with the results. She has an amazing gift on working with newborns (who can sometimes be cooperative, cranky, moody etc) and older kids. She is extremely patient. She has a great variety of props- various materials to get pictures that will be memorable for years to come. She is extremely creative, and works well with you to create unique shots. Just check out her website to see her portfolio and you will be amazed! She is extremely reasonably priced (you are paying for her photo skills/editing of pictures)- and what's nice is that she gives you a CD with all the pictures on it- so you can print them whenever and wherever and however you want. She doesn't offer printing at this time. There are so many places online or locally- it's cheaper to print them on your own (I found that a lot of photographers come with a high price tag because you have to also buy THEIR prints and do not get to keep a digital copy of pictures without paying a hefty price). You also get full printing rights of your pictures (which is how it should be!) She is a Rockford native (support local!) I am definitely going to use her in the future to document this exciting journey (and if there are any more to come!) ;) http://www.ohsnapbyamy.com/

Kim is such an amazing photographer! She has taken pictures of my daughter in dance for years and…read moreloved her work. When looking for a photographer for our son's senior pictures there was no doubt she was the one to use! She spent time to get to know our son and find out what HE liked. Doing this she was able to capture him perfectly. We had a great time at different locations capturing him. When we got our pictures back we were even more impressed at the work she did. We highly recommend Kim and will be using her again when our daughter gets her senior pictures done.

I started searching for a senior photographer about a year before hiring KJay photography to take…read moremy sons pictures. I followed every photographer I could find in the area on Facebook. As I saw pictures being posted there was one photographer who's work always impressed me, KJay Photography. After working with Kim it became apparent why her photos are so amazing. She gets to know her subjects, she provides great suggestions to get the shots you want. She has wonderful locations understands the importance of lighting and works seamlessly and creatively to get hundreds of fabulous shots. My son who wasn't really looking forward to having his picture taken, actually had fun and couldn't believe it went so fast. I am grateful to KJay Photography for capturing this milestone in my sons life. I absolutely treasure the photos and my daughter can not wait until her turn this summer!

Bottom line up front-- BK Rose is Best in Class nation-wide and peerless...keeping up with trends…read moreand best practices etc. is what gets you booked. All stop. That means doing your homework. I'll help you out with gusto, just as so many have helped me as I got started on my own journey. Being on point on your self marketing, especially when you are non-represented, is non-negotiable. Failing to be professional with what casting directors demand is a roadblock. Submissions are "make or break" power moves. THE ODDS ARE AGAINST the apex storybook discovery tales of rarities like JLAW, Michele Pfeiffer, Charlize Theron etc. so if you expect that to be your way in...it's not reality. I get cast and work in these markets: NYC (Netflix movies), Atlanta (Marvel/ABC), and Mid-Atlantic (Apple TV). I am new to the business (three years in) but I have been building a resume over time and there is no way I am going to compromise because I take my career seriously. There is no slack given in a highly competitive industry with a dearth of roles and a surplus of talent. SO...if you want to crack the code, get seen, get call backs, get booked then there is no better photographer for any amount of money than BK Rose and Kat is my Queen. I get work in commercials, major motion pictures, network tv shows because of her. Fact! Every single person I ask that plays a role in getting cast (when I am lucky enough to get employment) has singled out my headshots as what is working for me to get my foot in the door. BK Rose unequivocally is worth the plane ticket, drive time, train time, mule riding time (you name it) to get quality content and ultimately get BOOKED. Not 10 out of 10 -- 100 out of 10!

We used Kat to do family/newborn photos when we had our 2nd child. We hadn't done family photos…read morebefore and Kat was so patient and helpful with answering all the questions I had and letting me try on outfits she had in the client wardrobe to see if anything would work for me before the photoshoot. She had some beautiful options but I ended up going with a dress of my own. Kat is truly a child/baby whisperer and was able to soothe my 3 week old to get her to cooperate for pictures and got my shy toddler to smile for photos! We received our pictures within 2 days of our photoshoot and they are nothing short of incredible. We have gotten so many compliments on how beautiful and stunning they look. I would highly recommend using BK Rose Studio for photos and know we will be reaching out again when we need more family photos taken!
