Looking for a photographer to catch the best moments in your life? Karen is it!…read more From emails, texts and our entire session you will feel great with the decision in having Karen be your photographer. I wish I found her sooner. But happy she was able to capture our last miracle baby. The photos are just so amazing and I can't stop looking at them. We drove from Oakley to have her do our photos, her studio is perfect and she has everything. Which is worth it because I for one am forgetful which I forgot to bring our diaper bag! Thankfully Karen came to the rescue with diapers. She has all the cute and fun things to make your photos meet your vision and then some. All my kids are rainbow babies and the rainbow photo has 7 hearts which is how many angels we have and Karen came up with the idea of adding an extra heart to make it mean more. Which made me start to tear up, our last miracle rainbow baby showed the love to not only his big sisters but to his siblings in heaven. Karen is also super sweet and we had so much to talk about during our session. My eldest daughter who is on the spectrum. I ended up learning a few things from her to help our journey in her school. You feel like she is a friend the whole time, which is something I love in a photographer is a friendly connection. She loves what she does and she's really good with kids of all ages. You won't regret choosing Karen to take photos of your family. It will be the best decision in preserving memories for generations to see.

Loved working with Karen from the very first interaction online. The communication and suggestions…read moreshe gave were terrific, and very professional. She was wonderful during our session with the adults and especially the kids. She was able to make everyone feel comfortable and did a great job capturing (and coaxing ) real smiles from our grandchildren! Our pictures turned out beautifully! Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a wonderful and professional photographer!

I was looking for a photographer in the Brentwood area as a graduation gift for my niece. She was…read moregraduating high school, and I wanted to make this moment extra special for her. I came across Kree's Yelp page because of how close she was, but what really stood out was her website--the caliber and vibrancy of her photos were incredible. I knew right away she'd be a perfect fit for capturing my niece, both in her cap and gown and in her super colorful prom dress (which I was confident Kree could do justice!). From the moment I reached out, Kree was super responsive and easy to communicate with. The contract was simple and straightforward, pricing was fair and the breakdown of her packages were awesome. and she helped us agree on a time and location that worked perfectly, not far from our house either, which was a huge plus. On the day of the shoot, Kree arrived right on time and immediately made my niece feel comfortable. Since it was my niece's first time being professionally photographed, I appreciated how Kree guided her with poses and gave her direction to bring out her best angles. She was friendly, patient, and made the whole experience fun. We received the edited photos about two weeks later, and they were amazing, better than I could have imagined. Kree truly captured my niece's personality and the significance of the moment. Highlights for me: super responsive communication, an easy-to-understand contract, a convenient location, her friendly demeanor, and of course, the beautiful final photos. Thanks so much Kree!!!

My family and I love Kree photography. I did my graduation photoshoot with Kree and it was the…read moresmoothest experience of my life! She's so sweet and knows exactly what to do and how to tell you how to do it. If I need more photos for anything I would come to her!

Must go for your baby photoshoots. We had a wonderful experience.. Irma made us feel right at…read morehome. Her studio is awesome! We will definitely go back for some more family photos!

Based on her portfolio online and Yelp reviews, we reached out to Irma in hopes of booking a…read morematernity photoshoot. She was unavailable at the time, so we (feeling a bit of a time crunch) booked another photographer to do the maternity shoot. Irma still reached out once she was available again and was very apologetic for not being able to get back to us sooner. We informed her that we'd already booked with someone else, but thanked her for getting back to us. Now, fast forward a couple of months. After some nonsense back-and-forth and a last-minute cancellation from the other photographer, we reached back out to Irma in hopes she would be available for the same weekend we previously booked (on short notice, no less). To our (absolute) luck, she was! She booked us for a consultation meeting to get to know us and what we were looking for in our shoot, which is already more than the other photographer did. It was our first time doing anything like this, but she was really patient, making sure to answer all of our questions, and even brought up things we previously hadn't thought of. She also informed us that if we needed dresses or anything for the shoot, she had a closet full of stuff we could use. We did not take her up on that offer, but it's great to have that option available. In the end, we left this first interaction with her feeling great about her and our shoot. The day of the shoot, she met us on location, and we immediately got to work. She brought a pop-up tent to change outfits in, and even a wagon cart to hold all of our stuff! She was incredibily patient, but also really great at directing the photoshoot for two people who don't really like to be the center of attention. She showed us some of the raw shots along the way, and even asked if there were any specific aspects of our location we would like to be captured in the photos. Like the consultation meeting, we left our photoshoot feeling good and excited about what we did. When it came time to choose our photos, we had a really rough time narrowing down the ones we wanted to keep. She was very patient with us through this process, and even provided some helpful suggestions and tips when we were absolutely stuck on a few photos. It's great that her studio has examples of the physical items for us to look at when deciding on what package we wanted. The accordian books are an absolute treasure and perfect gifts for anxious grandparents-to-be! We enjoyed and appreciated this process so much with Irma that we went ahead and booked our newborn photoshoot with her as well. A few months later, we started the process all over again and it was as wonderful of an experience as the first go around. As before, she answered all of our questions, asked for our input on what we wanted out of the experience, and we feel like she really listened to us. Once the day of the shoot came around, she was very deliberate but efficient in the process. Not only was she was very patient with us and our little one (allowing for feedings, changing, time to pass any fussiness, etc), she was also very gentle in how she handled and posed our little one. Unlike the previous shoot, we took her up on her wardrobe options, so she provided all of the outfits and props for the shoot, which was great and very convenient. As you can imagine, the ordering appointment was just as stressful for us as the previous time, as we could not narrow down our "keep" pile of photos. As was the case before, she was extremely patient and helpful throughout the process. As a result, we ended up with a collection of photos we absolutely love. I don't think a few words on Yelp! can truly highlight how much we appreciate and love Irma's work. You can tell she truly enjoys what she does, and as a result, makes the entire process enjoyable for everyone. On top of it all, she absolutely loves the little ones, which makes you feel like your baby is in good hands with her.

I was NOT disappointed! Going with Shannon for my special event was the best decision I made for this project! The photos turned out at the exact level of quality I saw and loved when I checked out her work. We LOVE our photos! There were so many great shots. Shannon is incredibly sweet and disarming, she has an amazing artistic eye, she's very organized, professional, and responsive. She communicated timely and respectfully, providing all documents and invoices in an easy and professional way. I always knew what was happening and what I was getting. Shannon accommodated our desires and requests, including what to highlight in the photos. She was great at posing us in natural and flattering ways. I wanted a certain location for the photos, and Shannon happily accommodated that but she also recommended trying an alternate site nearby in addition to what I asked for. Boy was I happy she did that! The alternate location photos turned out amazing and are my favorite! This woman has an amazing eye!! I literally can't say enough nice things about this person and this business. I really really hope to have the privilege of working with her again! I plan to reach out shortly to request her for a future project! I HIGHLY recommend Shannon and her services!!!!

Our experience with JennyDee Photography was excellent from our initial emails all the way until we…read morereceived the final photos. Jenny and Geo (her husband and assistant photographer) are very responsive, professional, and committed to providing you all the shots you want. My husband and I hired JennyDee Photography for both our Engagement and Wedding photography and we could not be more pleased. We had multiple calls in the months leading up to the wedding to align on what we wanted, discussed the overall wedding timeline, and provided the list of shots we wanted. Their website also has example timelines for photography, which were very helpful as we planned our day and allowed us to not compress everything too much. Working with Jenny and Geo is also a great experience. They are organized, funny, kind, and encouraging -- they will help pose you as needed, but generally allow for a very genuine capture of the day. They are also very organized and will help keep things moving efficiently without being overbearing -- I could trust that they would get all the shots we needed without feeling like I needed to check in, and both posed and candid shots were phenomenal. Finally, all the photographs we received from JennyDee Photography (in less than a month!) are joy and whimsy personified. They managed to capture the color, vibrancy, and happiness of that day in the photographs -- I couldn't stop smiling the whole time I reviewed the gallery. The photography and editing style is so vibrant, genuine and fun in a sea of very muted photography nowadays-- I will lovingly look at the pictures for years to come. I could not recommend them more highly. Photo Credits: @JennyDeePhotography

We had an excellent experience with Jenny Dee Photography. Jenny and George (Jenny's husband and…read moreassistant photographer) were communicative and helpful in the months and weeks leading up to our wedding reception. Their template for our "desired and must-get" photos list was very helpful for organizing, and our phone conversations with them were great for figuring out what we wanted and hammering out logistics. On the day of the wedding, we had morning activities and an evening reception. Jenny and George were on time and enthusiastic for everything. They were flexible as our schedule shifted slightly throughout the day, and they were very active in making sure we got all the photos from our list. Now that we have the final photos, we can also say that we are thrilled with the results. Great candids, great staged photos, and we really like the editing style. Overall: would highly recommend for your wedding or event.

It you're hoping to capture the most beautiful photos of some of the most special moments in your life, USE LAUREL. Cannot speak highly enough. I also want to note that Laurel is SO easy to work with. She does such an amazing job to help guide the shoots, telling you where to look & how to pose.
