I was first introduced to Stewart about 12 years ago through the pageant world as he was…read morerecommended to do my headshots, with this being my first photo shoot I was left in awe of how amazing they turned out. Fast forward to last year, I work at a dental office and all three providers wanted a new headshot and a group photo. Stewart Smith immediately came to mind, he promptly responded to my request and worked diligently with our tight deadline. These photos are the premier headline on all of our social media pages, website and marketing material. Our doctors were even looking to do a photo shoot for our 2018 Christmas card. I don't think we have ever had more fun during a photo shoot! Picture 3 dentists jumping off of chairs in the waiting room, wearing Christmas onesies in winter hats! This picture was the talk of the dental community. We recently just finished our 2019 Christmas card photo shoot and although it didn't seem possible, Stewart yet again has created a photo that will sure be the talk of the holidays. He is a very talented photographer in not only professional headshots and fun/creative/out of the box photo shoot like we had, but also weddings, local scenery and much more! I recommend taking a look at his website and social media pages to see some of his talented work! We will definitely be using Stewart in the future!

If you're coming across this review in your search for a wedding photographer, stop your search…read morehere. Stewart is your best bet. My wife and I got married in May in New Hampshire and from the very beginning to the very end of the process, Stewart was prompt, professional, and so so kind. He was so deliberate about the choices he made when shooting us, and he made every decision with genuine care and an eye towards what we would like best. On top of an extremely pleasant and stress-free process, the pictures he took were out of this world. All of the heart he put into taking the photos is more than evident. There are loads of fun, silly pictures, which we loved. There are also a ton of super creative ones that we would NEVER have thought to take and now are our favorites. It was just terrific. You're not going to find a photographer who does a better job and loves what they do more than Stewart Smith.

I recently inquired about having our wedding photography done through McKenney photography. I went…read moreto Highschool (many moons ago) with the owner/head photographer and had seen him around town doing several sports teams pictures. I met with the photographer on a week night and my fiancé and I were very pleased with how he presented himself. We e-mailed the next day saying we'd like to give him a deposit within a few weeks and get the ball rolling. A few weeks later, I reached out to him and never heard back. I wrote back a couple of weeks after that and he claimed he never got the e-mail. I tried numerous times to schedule a time to give him the deposit (by check) and either never heard for him or he was too busy moving locations. This should have been my first sign. After a couple of months, I was able to meet with him to give him the money. When I got to the "new" location, it was completely turned upside down, although he did have a good explanation for it, but what bothered me about it was other clients personal information was laid out for anyone walking in to see. It was quite chaotic. Peoples sports teams pictures everywhere. This should have been my second sign. We booked our engagement photo session for a couple of months out because we were looking for a specific time of year to do it. After several reschedules (due to weather, not anything else) we were able to have our engagement photo session. We planed on doing it at the beach, and as we arrived (20 minutes early) it was thick fog everywhere. I called him to see what he suggested and he hadn't even left his house yet (it was a good 15-20 minutes out of town). He suggested we reschedule (not an option for me anymore, hair and makeup was done, work was missed to make this happen) so we rescheduled for a half hour later at a different location. We went to this location and he arrived 10 minutes late. Upon arrival, he got out of his car and his wife and 18 month old son were with him. She was not there to help, simply to allow him "time to spend with his family since he works so much". I was blown away. The child was running all around my legs during shooting, and the wife did nothing not keep him under control. It was extremely distracting. After about 5 shots of the session, the photographer/owner started to search through his bag, he then says he forgot his back-up battery and blamed his assistant who must've used it and not put it back. So this big business only has 2 batteries for 1 camera? So he left to go to the studio, with only about 45 minutes of sunlight left (because he was late) and he left his wife and son there. We tried having general chit chat with her but it did not go well. She was very cold and anti-social. It took him about 25 minutes to go there and back and at this point, I was extremely frustrated. After the shoot, I asked how long it would be to see pictures and he said 7-10 days. 10 days went by and I e-mailed him asking the status. I didn't get a response. 4 days later, I then went to social media (my private Facebook page) and asked what they would do? Several people told me about their own bad experiences with this photographer. Apparently he does a Groupon often and it seems he is just over booked/under staffed between that, weddings, engagements and sporting events. After advice from friends, I e-mailed him one more time, and he wrote back and said he meant 7-10 business days. I can accept that, however ignoring my first e-mail was bothersome. He then sent the photos and we were very happy with them. We decided we could put everything past us and not even discuss it. The quality of the pictures is what is most important, however, the next day, he e-mailed me. He stated someone told him about my Facebook post and he wanted to discuss it. So at this point, I was very uncomfortable with him continuing to be our photographer. He offered a full refund and I said I would think about it with my fiancé. A couple of weeks later, we decided that this just didn't sit right with us and we would like half of our deposit back ($250). He stated that our session actually cost more then our deposit (implying we owed more money?) and he would think of what was fair. I reminded him that he had offered a full refund and had screenshot that to him, that I was happy with the actual pictures and didn't want a FULL refund, rather half of it back to make it fair for both of us. He stated his accountant was out until the following Monday (one week) and he would have her send a check when she returns. 11 days later (that Friday after she returned) we got a check in the mail for.... 25 DOLLARS!!!! The best part, it wasn't even signed. I e-mailed him AGAIN and told him the situation, and he said his accountant must have made an error (ya, i'd say) and he would drop off a check. He stopped by 2 days later with the check. I would NEVER recommend him for your photography needs in any way shape or form. Completely over his head here.

I recently had Kelley take some shots for my new website. It was a tough decision for me, to have…read moreprofessional photos taken, because I usually photograph notoriously poorly, and have had fewer than ten photos taken of me throughout my life that I can say I like even a little bit. But I wanted my website to look professional, so I bit the proverbial bullet and made the investment. I told Kelley what I was looking for (casual but professional photos taken out of doors), and when I got to her studio she said, "let's go!" She had already scoped out locations within walking distance - and she picked a place by the river nearby that was perfect and just what I was looking for. She made the shoot relaxed and enjoyable, and helped me to overcome my trepidation and awkwardness. I still wasn't confident that I would like the shots, and sweated a bit as I waited for her to let me know the proofs were ready for viewing. It wasn't long before I met her in her studio to look at the results. They were amazing! Not only could I find shots I liked (and even a few I LOVED!), but I had trouble narrowing down the choices. Kelley's suggestions for what I might consider wearing, the makeup I wore (or didn't, since I never wear it in "real life") and how I should "pose," sit, etc. to bring out the best in my personality and my purpose for my website were spot on, and really enhanced my shots. Her prices are reasonable, and her skill and insight amazing. And her bubbly personality and friendly manner put me at ease and actually (and astonishingly) made the entire process not only bearable for this photo-phobe, but fun. I can't wait to get the photos on my site, and I know they will make my website better. Thanks, Ginger!
