Seriously, she…read moresomehow captured two gawky adults as beautiful parents to a beautiful baby (I may be biased but I think the baby is adorable all the time). We look like ourselves! Just much better versions of ourselves, if that makes sense. Melissa was professional but mellow and put us all at ease. Even the baby was happy the whole time. I turn into a neurotic mess when my photo is taken, so it was reassuring to get an email before the photo shoot with suggestions for what to wear and how to style ourselves. She also asked us if there was anything we wanted touched up a little in the final shots, such that the raging zit I had at the time of the shoot is concealed (did I mention I get all stressed out about being photographed?!). We got a link to our photos on her very easy to use website and they really do look great. Email me if you want to see the link so you can get a flavor for her style - candid, not posed. I got a few shots breastfeeding, too, and she did an excellent job sensitively capturing this intimate, treasured exchange between me and my daughter. She also set up a separate link for those shots so I don't further embarrass my mother with my breastfeeding grandstanding. I recommend Melissa highly and wish she'd shot our wedding and all the other neurotic photo shoot moments I've had in my life. She's fabulous!!!!!

Katie was the first and only photographer that we talked to. We spoke on the phone and decided…read moreright after hanging up that Katie was the one for us (lol). A few months after booking her, she shot our engagement photos in the South End where we live and we were OBSESSED with them. It wasn't at all pose-y or awkward like I thought it would be. She made us feel completely comfortable and embraced our awkward (and our pics look anything but awkward). Fast forward to our wedding this past July in Gloucester. The day started out perfectly sunny but quickly turned to black skies and rain. We went forward with out outdoor ceremony and I couldn't have been happier with how Katie handled the whole weather situation. She had been tracking the weather and we went outside for photos until right before it poured. The photos are gorgeous and dramatic and her calm demeanor and attitude made all the difference that day. She also always gave us our space on the day of and I never once felt like she was in our face taking photos. We knew our wedding photos were a priority for us when budgeting throughout wedding planning. Katie was easily the best decision we made. She was also always available for the entire year leading up to our wedding. She answered even the most non-photo related wedding questions for me and I cannot recommend her enough if you are looking for an unreal photographer!!

We had an amazing experience with Sister City Photography for our annual Christmas card photos…read more Daniela went above and beyond from start to finish. We chose to shoot in the South End to capture the beautiful brownstones and fall foliage, and the photos turned out even better than I imagined. Our situation was a bit tricky because we were working around a sleepy 6-month-old. Daniela kindly adjusted her schedule at the last minute so our baby could take a full nap beforehand, something any parent will appreciate! During the shoot, she gave us so much direction on how to stand, pose, and find the best lighting, which made the entire experience effortless and enjoyable. People walking by even stopped to say how great the photos were going to look -- and they were right. The images came out stunning. I've received so many compliments on our Christmas card this year, and it was hard to narrow it down to just a handful of photos because everything she captured was perfect. Daniela truly brought my vision to life and beautifully documented our memories in Boston. I can't recommend Sister City Photography enough for anyone looking for thoughtful, high-quality family photos.

We could feel in every single picture that her style was full of love, candor, and artistry. From the beginning to the end, she was an amazing photographer, very professional and communicative. We were worried about being awkward and self-conscious around the camera, but she made us feel so comfortable and helped us bring forth our true selves. She was also so great at directing us for different and creative poses and where to get the best shots. We received so many compliments on both our engagement and wedding pictures. We highly recommend her for any photography! We feel so fortunate to have found her and honestly couldn't ask for a better experience and more beautiful pictures. We would definitely work with her again!

We hired Briana and her husband James to be our photographers at our wedding in 2013. After looking at Briana's portfolio, we were expecting big things. Somehow she exceeded our expectations. Since we were not living in New England at the time, Briana suggested a Skype chat. We had so much fun talking to Briana and getting to know her. She was just our style - super creative, yet not pretentious. She "got" us and our vision, and we knew it from the first 5 minutes we met her. The package we got came with an engagement shoot. We decided to do it in the beautiful scenery in Cambridge. Lots of old brick and cobble stone. Lots of beautiful architecture. Lots of greenery. Briana brought it all out, and then some. It was a great way to get to know Briana better, and she very quickly got to know our quirks and personalities. It was really fun, but more importantly it exposed us to each other before wedding day. I credit this shoot with allowing us to be super calm and comfortable on wedding day. I know I know . . . most photographers offer and do engagement shoots. But not a lot of them offer them for free with the wedding packages AND have Briana's personality. Briana was so easy to work with. Wedding day was a dream. She got an incredible number of great shots, and we have an amazing documentation of our day. We didn't hire a videographer, so our pics were super important to us. Briana created a great STORY out of our day and our lives together for the 10 hours we were together. We recommended Briana to a friend and they hired her for their wedding in Maine last weekend. She's still great. I can't wait to see her photos. I can't recommend Briana enough. I wish we lived in Boston so we could be friends. Seriously.

The emotion she portrays in her photography makes you feel part of every moment she captures. After our initial meet-up with Briana, we were blown away. She is at the same time the kindest and the most professional person you will ever encounter. She is incredibly creative and is happy to mold your vision into something beautiful, meaningful and unique. Neither of us had experience in a heavily photographed situation, so Briana also offered incredibly helpful advice in how to best achieve the aesthetic we envisioned. From our engagement shoot in Central Park to our wedding in Maine, she immediately keyed into the best locations and shot them beautifully. Briana kept the stress to a minimum at all times. When it poured rain during our outdoor ceremony and there was a quick turn around to an indoor ceremony, I cried futilely. Briana quickly stepped in to offer to photograph in Portland, where we were flying out of the next day, if we didn't get the shots we were hoping for. Due to Briana's incredible skill, every photo came out perfect, and there was no need for additional photos. Briana's patience and proficiency extends to pets and small children. She got amazing shots of sometimes screaming children. By the end of the engagement and wedding shoots, our dog was completely in love with her and would attempt to leave the photos to go sit with her. The photos she took of our dog are incredible; she is the rare artist who captures the personality of everyone she photographs. Briana also had edited our photos within 2 weeks (ridiculous right? 9 hours of photography, edited and compiled in 2 weeks). I have friends who have not received photos in months. Briana was in the middle of a major relocation, and where some people may have not produced photos because of that, she used it as motivation. This speaks volumes to her dedication. Bottom line - if you are considering Briana for your project, choose her. She is fantastic in every way. I feel lucky that Briana photographed our wedding. It was the best day of our lives and I see that in every photo she took. I highly recommend her.
