Lauren promptly answered any questions we had- even taking the extra measures to check in with us on the days leading up to what was a rescheduled photo shoot due to weather. She provided ample rescheduling dates and once the weather decided to cooperate, we managed to get in a solid amount of poses and backdrops at the nature center in Schaumburg. She also sent out our gallery the very next day! Awesome!! The photo session itself was unlike any other experience we've had with a photographer. Somehow, she managed to coax genuine smiles and giggles from us which led to super quality shots. Will definitely book Honeybrown again!!

It's not easy working with newborns/toddlers and a husband who hates being photographed, but AnnMarie is super sweet, understanding, and makes the sessions fun! She is truly one of the best photographers we've ever worked with and we will definitely continue working with her for years and years to come!

We first worked with Ann Marie when we moved into our new home and neighborhood several years ago…read moreand were so impressed with her work that we haven't used another photographer since. She has an amazing talent for capturing those special moments, which isn't easy when some of your subjects are 3 years old (in our case). The images she has taken of our family will be cherished memories for years to come. We could not recommend her any more strongly if we tried!

BK Rose is undeniably the best in the business. We hired Kat and Brett for both our engagement and…read morewedding photos, and we had an amazing experience every step of the way. Kat immediately made us feel comfortable, relaxed, and completely ourselves during our engagement shoot. Her attention to detail is phenomenal, especially when it came to all the little things I told her I wanted -- like my very specific request for our photos to feel grand and epic, but also romantic lol. She was always available by text or phone whenever we had questions or concerns. Weeks after our engagement shoot, I noticed something off about my dress, and she had edited photos back to me within hours to help solve the issue. Kat has such a vibrant energy about her that makes the photoshoots so fun! And that's before even getting to her incredible photography skills. She knows all the hidden gems around the city, how to navigate crowded locations to get THE shot, and how to capture a wide variety of moments while maintaining incredible quality. The photos truly speak for themselves. Kat and Brett together are an incredible duo. They seem to instinctively know what shot the other is trying to get, and it was cool to watch them flow together so seamlessly. I think that definitely contributes to their fantastic work. I'm not even sure what our next big event will be, but whatever it is, we're already looking forward to having a reason to hire Kat and Brett again!

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!

I mean, I really can't say anything negative in the slightest about Ashley. Not only is she an…read moreincredible and talented photographer, but she is such a kind, outgoing, and personable human being! Truly the best photographer I worked with thus far. She's perfect for event photography which is what I use her for. She is on-time, hard-working, and gets right into it. And the best part of it all, the pictures were ready in under 48 hours. That's IMPRESSIVE. I really liked Ashley and can't wait to work with her again! Loved the beautiful pictures she captured!

I tend to get really anxious in front of a camera, and don't consider myself to be very photogenic and so I was nervous for the photo portion of our days! Turns out, I did not need to be nervous at all! From the very first moment Ashley disarmed us and kept us comfortable. She was nothing but positive and--truly!--made us feel awesome about ourselves and the pictures we were taking. She is just a pleasure to be around and our comfort and happiness really comes through in the photos. And the photos are amazing! Ashley really captured our days in a way that will help us keep those memories for a lifetime!

From the start, working with her was extremely professional. She was very timely with her email responses and was even able to fit us in on short notice.

Her patience was unbelievable! She accommodated all our requests for poses and props, with no hesitation. I will recommend H. Lane photography to all my friends and family. I can not wait to come back to get 1 year photos of my baby !

He charges exorbitant prices and seems to be genuinely shocked when you question his fees. It is simply un-nerving that this guy has photos of your entire family that he then holds hostage until you cough up what he demands. One suggestion for the business location: You may have better luck if your studio didn't smell like a wet dog and was decorated in some style other than "early alley". It is simply beyond comprehension how this guy is in business.

Nicole is FABULOUS!!!!…read more A friend of a friend recommended her to me after I lamented about how poorly my newborn pictures had turned out (done by a different photographer.) I immediately contacted Nicole to schedule a 6 month photo shoot at her in-home studio. First - she's AMAZING working with the babies and was really able to capture my son's personality. Second - her in-home studio is beautiful and packed with props, costumes, etc. You literally just need to show up with your child - she will provide all the rest! Third - Nicole is super friendly and easy to work with. We loved her so much that we booked our family session (outside, in the fall) with her and she captured some amazing shots of the fall colors. And, we'll be using her for all of our future photography needs. LOVE Nicole!!

When Chrissy showed up, talked to us, and took us around Chicago she took all those nerves away.

She is so sweet and never makes you feel uncomfortable. She is so knowledgeable about what looks good and improvises if things don't quite work out how they were planned.

Instead of just not getting any pictures outside, Chrissy had the great idea to get pics outside with an umbrella (after the storms were gone) and these turned out to be some of our favorites!! She also has an eye for capturing the most meaningful candid pictures. I could go on and on! She's the best!!

Carol is an absolute delight, and I will be proud and happy to recommend Carol and Nicole to anyone who wants a great photo shoot! Thank you.

From the moment we saw Carol's work, we instantly knew we could trust her with capturing our day. Carol has her Masters in Wedding Photography through PPA but also does headshots, family sessions, and more! We loved having a mini engagement session to get to know her better, share our preferred posing styles, and see how beautifully she captured our small moments. Additionally, she met with us before our big day to understand what was most important for her to capture and how our wedding day was scheduled out. When the big day came, Carol went above and beyond to photograph every big and small moment. She adjusted us as needed but also let us organically react in each moment. She turned her edits over quickly and we didn't have one bad photo in the bunch! Carol far exceeded our expectations and I could not recommend her more for any of your photography needs! She has many accolades for a reason and it shows time and time again in her work.
