The hair and makeup was also beautiful and exactly what I asked for. The pictures are perfect and Mel took into account the tone and vision I described to her. I would recommend this experience (with Mel, obviously!) to any woman who is even slightly interested - you will NOT be disappointed!!!!! I am so, so happy I did this and I will cherish these images forever.

I was nervous at first (having never done this before), but as we chatted and Marlo worked on my hair and makeup (both excellent ) I began to feel at ease. During the shoot, Mel was super helpful and kind, letting me know exactly what to do. She made it so easy and fun! I'm so glad I made the decision to go with her for my shoot. I've never felt more confident and sexy.

We hired Bella for our civil ceremony at Boston City Hall. Easily one of the best decisions ever…read more The pictures are spectacular and she is a joy to work with. She is very familiar with Boston City Hall and the surrounding areas; our pictures are perfectly composed. She also puts everyone at ease when photographing. During the ceremony itself she got great pics but was also not intrusive to the moment in any way. Would hire her again next time I need a photographer.

As a portrait and event photographer myself, when it came time to choose a photographer for my…read moreoldest child's bar mitzvah, there was no one other than Bella I could imagine trusting with such an important day and all the memories that go with that. With Bella behind the camera, I was able to relax and be in the moment with my guests, and she really knoinccked it out of the park with the gallery she delivered. I could not possibly have asked for better photos -- they will help our family remember this day for generations in a beautiful, emotive way. Since we booked one of her "wedding" packages, there was also an "engagement" session included -- it was a great way to celebrate our family in a more casual way, and for my son to get comfortable in front of Bella's camera (he's at a stage where he HATES having his photo taken, but Bella made him very comfortable). Bella is amazing, and we will definitely be booking again.

Michael's superpower is that he's able to be everywhere, but is never intrusive. I can't believe…read morehow many moments he captured throughout my wedding and reception without me even knowing. For posed photos, he is so good at making everyone involved feel at ease. I have gotten many compliments about him. He has so many good and subtle directions that help make the final products shine. I can't imagine navigating the chaos that is a wedding without the zen master photographer, Michael!

Before working with Michael, I found myself somewhat skeptical of his perfect reviews. Could that…read morebe real?!? Now that he's shot my wedding, there is no doubt that he deserves that perfect rating and more. Michael was incredible to work with from day 1. He communicated promptly and easily and asked all the right questions about our vision for the day. He expressed genuine excitement and had immediate ideas about how he could fit in and enhance the experience. Leading up to the wedding, I never once felt like I had to worry about whether I was a priority to him and whether he would come through (and that most definitely is NOT a given. I should mention that he made me feel this taken care of even though I did NOT book him for an entire day and had a smaller wedding that only required a few hours.) The day of, he was so easy-going and professional. He somehow made everyone feel at ease, remembering family members' names and juggling all personalities and quirks. I felt incredibly hectic and stressed the entire day and somehow Michael made that melt away as soon as he showed up. He was prompt, organized, thoughtful, quick on his feet, and also kind and funny to be around. If that all wasn't enough, he also captured gorgeous photographs (way cooler than I could have imagined, honestly) and had them back to me quickly. I really can't say enough about this experience. He blew us away. He was the shining light of my wedding and by far the best "vendor" decision I made that day.

Tricia Saxler is an amazing photographer. She has a unique gift to capture the personality of the…read morefamily or individual, and she brings out the best in those she photographs. My daughter adores her, and Tricia is able to capture her smile and sparkle in a way that other photographers have failed. She is really fun, and she makes the process very enjoyable. Her photographs are of the highest quality and we love both the black and white and color versions. We live in California, and yet whenever we visit Massachusetts, it's top of our priority list to schedule a family photo session with Tricia. I give her my highest recommendation.

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 worked with Daniela both for our engagement and wedding photos because we loved her portfolio on…read morethe website. 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!

So much so, I started getting her perspective on things like timelines! Through it all she was a positive calming force. Leading us through a complicated photo schedule with ease and a lot of patience. We also had the pleasure of getting to meet one her photography partners. Equally fantastic! They were extremely effective with time, and the locations we wanted to take pictures at. Just the sweetest people, I honestly want to be her friend if I ever move back to Boston. =D At the end, I got amazingly beautiful pictures, and great memories that will last forever. Thanks Steph! It was a pleasure working with you!!!

In the very beginning of March of 2020, I attended the AWP Conference in San Antonio Texas- and I…read morehad the amazing experience of being photographed by Adrianne Mathiowetz. It was my first big conference promoting my new book and all my photographs were pretty outdated, one of my colleagues said I needed to book an Author Portrait with Adrianne quickly, and showed me a soulful shot she had from Adrianne previously. WOW. She is so good ya'll. She is attentive and professional, and also very easy-going and made me feel super comfortable. In a very short time, she captured several candid shots. I was planning on purchasing "one" photo. I had to get five, because each one told a different story. She is skillful, kind, and delivers on-time!!! Most importantly, I had fun. ;) Book her and you won't be disappointed.

I can't say enough about her, both personally and professionally. Professionally, she's trained as a documentary photographer, so she's incredible at capturing those soulful, intimate in-between moments. Smiling group photos are nice and all, but Adrianne excels at catching those winks, shoulder-squeezes, and secret smiles, usually from from a funky vantage point, that are what make wedding and event photos so special. (That said, when there was a great group photo of everyone but my blinking mother-in-law, Adrianne swooped in and seamlessly photoshopped a non-blinking head from another photo, so everyone was a winner!) She also had our photos ready to review a mere TWO WEEKS after the wedding. Personally, she's super easy to work with, on top of her administrative game, fairly-priced, and a total delight. She's happy to take her cues and/or explicit marching orders, and she's also ready to give fun, creative, and quirky suggestions. Adrianne's a photographer with soul. It's an amazing thing to see the world through her eyes.
