Over the last 10 years, I have used Erica 3 times for family photos. Our most recent session came…read moreat a particularly difficult time for our family. I wanted photos to celebrate surviving a tough year and I could not be more thrilled with our photos. From when I first contacted Erica to our photo selections, she was professional, kind, and was able to capture exactly what I wanted without providing much direction. Even my boys had fun at the session! Erica is true artist and I highly recommend to anyone looking for quality photos!

I went to a bridal expo and spun a wheel and was signed up for a Noir photoshoot after receiving a…read morecoupon. For some reason I had to go ahead and book it that day. About a week later, I called to reschedule it for as late as possible. Honestly, in February when I booked it, I still had my winter holiday weight and would have preferred to have done a Noir photo shoot in the summer. When I called, I was only allowed to push it out two weeks. I mean not a huge issue but also not ideal. If I'm going to take photos of myself in lingerie I'd prefer to look my absolute best. This was also a gift for my fiancé so again, I would prefer to look my best. Throughout the weeks leading up to the shoot, you will receive reminders and emails on what to expect and tips on what to pack and wear. This was helpful. The day of the photoshoot, I arrive and was offered a mimosa or water while you get ready in hair and makeup. That all went fine, and everyone was nice. Once ready, the photographer came in and helped me select a couple of outfit options. We ended up choosing four outfits. The photoshoot itself was very easy and the photographer clearly knows what she was doing because she posed me perfectly in flattering poses. The rooms/sets were also nice and professional, and the lighting was fantastic. The whole actual experience was very professional and pleasant. At the end, they tell you you have to come back within two weeks to be eligible for their discount pricing. I was going to be out of the country for a week and then when I came back, i obviously had to go back to work. I had to fit the photo review appointment in somehow. After the appointment is scheduled, THEN and only THEN do you learn about the pricing. I will actually attach below. Honestly, it was shocking. I can understand the prices for an entire book and the really nice large prints but for digital photos, I was flabbergasted. I honestly think it's shady business practice to not post the prices up front. Clearly, you are trying to hide something. I went to the appointment to review the photos. They had me in a private room with a slideshow on a big screen with music playing. You get to see all your pics and then go two by two to select which ones you like. You can keep narrowing it down until you get to your favorites. That process was perfectly fine and easy but again you have to decide right then and there. I decided on digitals because of cost. I only ended up getting five because it was just so expensive. I would have got more photos had it been more reasonable. I'm the type of person that likes to think things over and being forced to make a decision in the moment especially to drop a large sum of money is stressful to me. Pros: Professional, lots of tips beforehand, beautiful sets, great lighting, good camera, and nice hair and makeup. Cons: No upfront pricing and very expensive!! I didn't like being forced to complete the shoot months before I really wanted to. I didn't like being forced to make a decision quickly without time to really think about it. Overall, I would say people need to know what it costs and then it will be a better experience. Finding out how expensive it was at the end took the fun away from the experience and leaves you feeling scammed. Honestly, I could buy some lighting off amazon and have a girlfriend take some pics. I may still do that so i can actually create a full album for my fiance since five pics aren't going to do much.

I wasn't going to write a review…read more In April 2024, I "Won" a "free" boudoir shoot on FB. I accepted, to celebrate my 30th birthday, even though I live over an hour away. Everyone was lovely. I had a lot of fun and felt pampered. It was wonderful, but that changed when it was time to book a follow-up. The session was "free" and came with one print - I assumed low-res digital pics were included. I had checked the website, but couldn't find pricing - I would've never thought to look at a page called "investments," I'm not an investor. Even then, it's not clear that you can't get ANY digital copy of the photos you don't get printed unless you pay specifically for high-res photos. Especially since I know industry averages, I was stunned and disheartened when they handed me a rate sheet, but at the time I still hoped I could get the digital photos without paying an arm and a leg. If they didn't choose me because my FB shows I'm sentimental and value the arts, they got lucky. They reeled me in and put me in a situation where I had no good options. I had to book another appointment to see the photos, beautifully arranged in a video with an empowering song. They were AMAZING! I had to decide then and there - pay $1300 (including a $100 fee for not being able to pay in full immediately..seriously??) to get all the digital photos in high res, or any number of very pricey options to only get some photos. Any I didn't choose would be deleted at the end of 2024 and I'd never see them again. There was no option to get lower-res files, proofs, etc. for cheaper. If I had known, I would have never even booked the shoot. I started the payment plan, which was a significant financial burden due in part to the fact that it had no flexibility for length and had large bi-weekly payments, meaning one month would have 3 massive payments. I couldn't get the photos until I had paid in full. A couple months later, I got an offer to transfer my payment plan to an online pay-later platform, which I gladly accepted - it made the length of the plan longer but the monthly payments more reasonable. This change allowed me to receive the photos in June. I paid it all off early in Feb 2025. The customer service and the work was amazing, but I definitely felt mislead by the fact that I "won" something for "free" and ended up only being able to get the product by spending almost 4 months' rent on something I would not have even wanted if I hadn't been told I "won" it for "free." They talk about empowering people and lifting them up but it was the opposite for me. I chalked it up to a learning experience. I wasted a LOT of gas and money, but I had the photos and would be more careful in the future. I decided to move on with my life, remove myself from their FB group, unfollow the business page, and wash my hands of the situation, not even bothering to leave a review. Until today. Months after I'd already paid off the plan, I received a text AND an email from the studio telling me that for 24 hours only, I could get ALL of my photos (that I'd paid $1300 for) from 2024 (that were supposed to have already been deleted) for $89. I would've been annoyed to receive any communication from them at this point, but THIS was cruel. I was embarrassed about having been fooled until now - now I'm just angry. I was lied to and misled in a number of ways. I'm writing this to warn people. If you found this place through a social media contest, remember that "if something sounds too good to be true, it probably is." If you're considering them for your paid photography - they do amazing work and are lovely, but you can find more honest business practices and better prices elsewhere. This business ran a sucker scheme that is as close as you can get to a scam without actually being one. I fell for it, thought it was over, but they had to insult me one final time. I had decided to be quiet and let it go, but now I'm going to make sure to warn people as much as I can.

One of the poses was in a mirror and I had to ask if it was a funny mirror like they put in fitting rooms to make you look thin. She laughed and said nope, it's a regular mirror. I absolutely loved my session and the images! I finally saw myself as others do! I'm sexy and strong and beautiful. Angela helped me see that about myself!

Rose is the best photographer in Columbus!…read more I think every photographer has their own specialty, and Rose's gift is capturing magical moments. I don't know how she does it, but she manages to get these unposed, couldn't-have-planned-them-better moments. I first met Rose a couple of years ago at the Jeni's Yelp event, and she took my favorite photo ever. She captured the exact moment when I met Jeni -- and you can see every bit of excitement and nervousness as this fanboy met his crush. Since then, I've hired Rose several times for work and personal, and everyone is completely thrilled with the results. She also donates her precious time once a quarter to help photograph our Columbus SOUP events -- where she truly captures the joy and the spirit of the events. I love Rose, and I adore her photography. One of these days when I get around to planning my own wedding (wasn't there a movie about a 7-year engagement?), you know who I'll be calling.

Rose has a wide range of experience from newborns, HS seniors, families, moms-to-be, engagements, parties, wedding, artistic shoots, etc and she is great at them all. She has personally done event photography for an organization I work with as well as my friend's one year old's portraits. Rose really has an eye for capturing special moments and her artistic touches on the final product really make each piece a cherished memento. Rose is a delight to work with and has a great positive and gentle energy to makes people feel at ease and natural lending to (in my opinion) better photos. (No one likes pictures where it looks like you're trying too hard!) Once you work with Rose, you'll always want to work with Rose.

This little portrait studio opened across the street from the new Creekside retail space early in…read more2008 and is a wonderful addition to the development. The owner, photographer Sara Knight, has fixed up the little old Gahanna house and visitors will find the interior space very bright, welcoming, friendly and fun. Ms. Knight is a wonderful photographer, as the photos adorning her walls will demonstrate. She specializes in portraits of families and children and her work is bright, cheery, and hauntingly beautiful. She has a wonderful way with children and can, miraculously, get them to smile and be their best possible versions of themselves. At her request, my own children happily posed in ways and situations that I'd never been able to get them to do at home. I just watched in amazement while she worked and they happily smiled, leaned in, held flowers or gazed at her solemnly. She was wonderful. Ms. Knight runs her studio very professionally and her clients are well cared for. I was very impressed by her and her work and can fully recommend her to other families. As an added bonus, her studio is right across the street from Coldstone Creamery, so you can easily take the kids for ice cream after a photo session with Ms. Knight. How can that be bad?
