Sneha is professional, easy-going and has an amazing eye. My fiance and I had admired her pictures…read moreof babies for months and thought of no one else to take our engagement pictures but her - boy are we glad we made this decision!! As food enthusiasts, we knew we wanted to incorporate food into our pictures. She was so excited and willing to join us at a truffle making class and work around all the constraints of a small and new space. Later, she joined us through Eastern Market and seamlessly navigated the stalls while still capturing us in our element - the shots are natural and genuinely reflect us! Finally, she provided us with all the elements for a picnic on the Mall - she brought the picnic basket, blanket and other props - we didn't have to worry about anything! I couldn't recommend her enough. If you want to have fun and laugh throughout your pictures and receive shots that truly capture your essence book Pretty in Pic!

I was worried my kid wouldn't sit still for photos, but Sneha was able to capture my active toddler perfectly. Her ability to adapt to my child's energy was priceless.

THIS IS THE GUY! It…read morewas my first ever official in-studio shoot, and Jae did an incredible job as a professional photographer and a creative artist. He walked me through everything that was gonna happen, and offered guided caution so that I would get what I want from the photos. I was very relaxed and comfortable the entire time. The session ended up being one of the most fun and pleasant experience in my life. I would definitely work with him again in the future!!!

A little over a decade ago, I was searching for a photographer in the Washington DC area who would…read morebe able to take proposal photos as a surprise to my now wife. Jae was one of the photographers who reached out and ultimately the one I ended up going with. Looking back, it was absolutely the right choice! He was incredibly helpful in planning out the proposal and choosing the best location for our photos. He answered all of my questions and was easy to get in touch with both before and on the night of the proposal, keeping me updated and making sure everything was ready before the big moment. The photos turned out perfect! Even today, they stand out as some of our favorite pictures. Fast forward 10 years later - I had an idea to get a kind of "follow up" set with our daughter for our 10th anniversary. I reached out to see if Jae was still in the area and if he'd have some availability to do these for us. He got back to me fast and we ended up planning everything out, starting right back where the proposal happened. This time was just as great! Jae was fantastic with our daughter and really helped bring out her smile. He was great posing us and knew exactly how to work each location we walked to. The photos (again) turned out fantastic! Being able to look back at both sets side by side, a decade later, is like opening a time capsule - it's just so cool!

I took a photography class with Diana the other day (on meetup.com). She walked us through…read moredifferent studio lighting. Diana is an excellent photographer and you can see samples of her work all throughout the studio. Her instructions were very good to and I learned quite a bit. The only thing that did not work for me, and which is not against Diana, was that we had a few too many folks for the meetup up session. We were constantly jostling (in a good way) for space to get the perfect shot of the model. Other than that, two thumbs up to Diana and her work!

We recently took our four week old baby boy to Studio Diana for his first portrait session and we…read morecould not be more thrilled with the photos Diana Adams took of us! She was sweet, friendly, talented and patient with us, esp. when our son needed to eat in the middle of the session. Diana also had great suggestions as to what would look good and she showed us examples of her work with other babies and families. Don't hesitate to contact Studio Diana for your family photos...we plan to go back for our son's six month and twelve month pictures!

Michelle first photographed our family when my youngest was just a few months old. We loved our…read morephotos from BACINI photography so much that we had fall family photos done as well. I cannot emphasize how great Michelle is to work with. She is a natural at engaging with kids and came up with lots of great family poses during our photo shoot (without looking overly pose-y). She was receptive to feedback about what we were looking for from our pictures and surpassed our expectations. It is also apparent from the images we received in our final gallery that a lot of time was spent editing each photo. The color contrast, lighting, and depth of our fall photos is just amazing. When it comes to photography, you get what you pay for, and it's apparent Michelle is more than just a hobby photographer (like so many discount photographers in the area). She is professional, talented, and cares about her clients. I would highly recommend BACINI photography to anyone looking to invest in quality family photos!

My husband and I needed a photographer for our daughter's first birthday party and Neethu and Shiji…read morecame to our rescue! They were on time, kind, and so professional throughout. Best of all, the photos we received were impeccable - they were everything I had hoped for and more. A first birthday party already brings up so many nerves with wanting everything to go perfect (while accepting that everything won't) but they ensured I had nothing to worry about. These are photos I will treasure for a lifetime. I would hire them again in a heartbeat.

They were so affordable and talented that she booked them immediately. They set up two meetings prior to the wedding and answered any question we threw at them in a timely manner. On the big day, they texted me that morning & updated me as to their ETA and were early! They immediately began working on outdoor shots, sanctuary photos, etc. The "getting ready" photos were such a special experience and they were so careful to listen to the bride's wants & brought the reference photos we had sent them as inspiration. The ceremony was in a sanctuary so Neethu and Shiji were quiet and unnoticeable during the ceremony. They got great shots and somehow captured the most precious moments without much movement! They let me (the best friend and control freak) help organize the family photos after the ceremony & were so respectful and patient. We worked together to get all the photos done without stressing the couple. The portraits afterwards were so fun and memorable. Neethu took amazing candid shots with angles that complimented the couple & Shiji focused on direction and portraits. After the wedding, they checked in with a few sneak peeks & delivered the completed collection within their promised 6-week turn around. I cannot recommend this amazing duo enough. The photos are stunning and the entire experience with Neethu & Shiji was nothing short of perfection. I will recommend them to anyone who will listen to me!

The amount of natural light and the option to use the owners lights are both amazing to have. The studio also has a ton of clothing options for clients to borrow as well as chairs and backgrounds.
