I would recommend her to anyone looking for a great photographer, with reasonable prices, that doesn't do the typical up-sell of making you buy images from her... the gallery is ours to download and print as we wish. Big bonus.

She is a gifted artist, and captured the emotions we were feeling, in all of the pictures. I am SO happy to have such a treasure chest of memories from our day. The day goes by so fast, so to be able to look back on all of these photos now, makes me feel like I'm right back there feeling all of that joy all over again. I really can't recommend her enough.

We hired Oksana to photograph our post-elopement celebration at the Tabard Inn in DC last August,…read moreand we were very happy with her and the beautiful photographs she took, edited, and delivered! The event consisted of about 60 people, and while it was wedding-related it was not a wedding per se - just a celebratory evening of drinks and food. We initially had hired someone else, but they cancelled less than a month before the date, which caused us serious anxiety. I scoured Yelp for photographers with 5 star reviews and contacted a million of them. One thing I discovered with many photographers is the second you breathe the word "wedding," the price of everything instantly quadruples. We were trying to avoid this and stay within an admittedly Spartan budget. Oksana's response was very fast, and the specific thing that drew us to her was that she had recently been involved in her own similar celebration at the Tabard Inn, so it seemed like fate. Once we had a chance to look at her sample pictures online, we were sold. Her communication leading up to the event was excellent. She was easy to get in touch with, the contract negotiation and execution happened very quickly, and the terms were very fair. A week or so before the event we discussed a checklist of specific pictures we definitely wanted (e.g., family with xyz background, this cousin, that aunt, this flower, etc.) and worked out a schedule for getting the pictures done without interrupting the flow of the evening. Oksana showed up on time (early actually) and started snapping pictures without needing a lot of hand holding. While we were doing an open bar in another room, she went into the dining area and took pictures of the beautiful room, arrangements, etc. Then she started taking candids of our guests. At the appointed time, we started pulling groups of people outside for the pictures we had discussed previously. All-in-all I thought it went off without a hitch and we were able to get the "staged" pictures done efficiently. For the remainder of the evening, Oksana circulated around and snapped many pictures of our guests in various poses and combinations. In retrospect, there were a few people who were not photographed as much as maybe we would have liked, but I think we are mostly to blame for that because we didn't give as good instructions as we could have on that point. Everything we specifically pointed out as being "required" so to speak was done very nicely. Also, and I don't want to set a precedent or anything, but Oksana stayed much longer than the amount of time specified in the contract. We were very very grateful for that because we got to get a lot of shots throughout the evening. The final pictures arrived about a month later after Oksana had edited them. They came on a DVD, and there were many more than had been called for in the contract as well. We couldn't be happier with the pictures. They really captured the spirit of the event, and some of them are literally the best pictures I've ever seen of some family members. I would definitely recommend Oksana to anyone.

I've had the…read morepleasure of knowing her for many years and after seeing the quality of her pictures, we decided she was the right person for our photo shoot. Oksana spent a significant amount of time with us but kept the atmosphere light and fun. She gave us some great direction, since we had never taken pictures like this before. Our pictures turned out beautifully; we have some really amazing keepsakes thanks to her talent. A lot of people can take pictures without grasping the artistic component, but Oksana has a really great eye for color and composition.

This was my very 3rd time doing a photo shoot, and I'm beyond grateful that I pushed myself to do it here. There was absolutely no judgment, and she gave clear guidance and direction while also making me feel comfortable enough to freestyle and be creative. There was no rushing at all, and a lot of time and care were spent making sure we captured the right shots. You can really tell that she takes pride in her work and genuinely cares about her clients. I will definitely be coming back many times. The entire experience was so much fun, and even the unedited photos already looked amazing, so I can't even imagine how incredible the final images will be. If you're considering booking a photo shoot at this studio, just do it. You'll be in the best hands. I honestly couldn't believe I was looking at myself in these photos--I'm so proud of myself. They truly look like something straight out of a magazine.

We have utmost confidence in Carrie and would highly recommend her to other engaged couples or to families wanting photos of their little ones.

When I asked my husband if he wanted to write my review for Lisa, he said, "sure." This is what he…read morewrote: HOLY CRAP. HOLY CRAP. HOLY CRAP. Given that his eloquence didn't quite match the expression on his face, I thought I'd take over. Lisa did a boudoir photo shoot with me (the photos were a surprise for my husband's birthday). I wanted to write a review because I asked her not to put the photos up on her blog--though I loved them, I wanted to let the pictures remain private to us. However, my experience was absolutely phenomenal. Lisa worked with me for pricing; not only was she one of the only photographers I looked at who included all the photos taken as part of the deliverables included in the original fee (i.e. I don't have to buy photos from her because I will have digital copies of all of them with reprinting rights), but she also was just fine with doing the shoot at a friend of mine's apartment and having another friend do my make-up. Before the shoot, I expressed my concerns about my own body image and fear of not looking "good enough," and Lisa reassured me that it would truly be a fun experience--and it was! When you look at the photos she took, it's hard to believe that Lisa is so young, that she came to the apartment with only a backpack of supplies, and that she somehow managed to make me look like a model! The shots are so diverse--in some, she captured my actual genuine laugh or smile, while in others she found my inner seductress--but every single one is both classy and sexy. My husband is in awe and wants to "shout from the rooftops how hot my wife is"--and I have even been proudly showing them to close friends (which I never thought I'd do!). I cannot recommend Lisa enough--if you're worried about how you might look or feel during a boudoir shoot, have no fears! As my husband said, "see, this is how I see you every day--finally, someone captured that in a photo as proof."

Lisa was the first vendor I contacted once we had our wedding date. I had seen her work over the…read morepast few years and was captivated by the artistry of her photography. I was so excited she was available for our Sept 2013 wedding and could not wait to meet her. At our initial meeting, we had a lot of fun getting to know it each other and both my husband and I felt comfortable with her right away. This comfort continued into our engagement photo session, which we did in Old Town Alexandria. Lisa had fantastic suggestions on where to go and made ordinary scenery and streets come to life and compliment us. On our wedding day, I had no worries or stress related to the photography, I knew with Lisa's talent and eye in combination with her dedication and passion our photos would be beautiful. When I saw the pictures I was stunned, they are absolutely amazing. She was able to capture the entire day perfectly, the photographs were better then I imagined. We have received so many compliments on our wedding photos and about how much fun our guests had with Lisa throughout the day. Lisa was an absolute pleasure to work with, she is an incredible artist and amazing person. I feel very blessed that we were able to work with her and get to know her. I would not hesitate to recommend her, she is the best!

She is very easy to work with, great with wedding guests and works seamlessly throughout the event. Although wedding photography is expensive, we thought the money spent at RMN Photography was more than reasonable and the quality of what we received was outstanding. An added benefit, was that we were having a jewish wedding and Rachel fully understood the important moments and was able to cue for our music to coincide with those moments. Rachel's turnaround time for posting both a preview and the wedding pictures were prompt. Communication with her was very easy. Calls and e-mails are promptly returned. You will not be disappointed if you hire Rachel.

I LOVE THE REGETIS. They were my wedding photographers and that was the BEST decision I ever made…read more I had to beg my parents to hire them since they are a little on the pricey side BUT they are worth every penny. We will be hiring them for my sisters wedding, our future baby shower and our kids portraits!! I hope we never move so that they are always our photographers for every event in our lives. Outside of having amazing photography skills, they are so personable and I never realized how important the engagement photo shoot is. You really get to know your photographers and they explain to you why they choose to do certain poses or angles. In fact I got to know them so well that at my wedding when I was tired of smiling for pictures, I would take a break with them and just chit-chat. Love you guys so much :)

Amy has the uncanny ability to direct crowds (especially critical for an Indian Wedding) and was able to consistently put my nervous wife at ease. We clicked with them instantly and in my opinion, that's the most important thing when it comes to choosing a photographer. Their style fit perfectly with what we wanted, a photojournalistic recap of our wedding and that's exactly what we got. Everything was candid and felt natural (rather than forced portraits...). We could barely spot Srinu and the crew in the crowd but they got ended up getting every shot that we could have hoped for and all of them were fantastic quality. The video was top notch too - they were even able to create a quick wedding recap video to play at our reception on the same day (which got rave reviews from our guests). Considering how busy they were with all of their bookings during wedding season, their communication was remarkable. Amy usually responded to our inquiries within minutes and never left us hanging. They were especially flexible in providing us with a photo booth that we really wanted when it was a service they typically didn't offer - it ended up being a huge hit and is just one example of how they go above and beyond for their clients. Amy and Srinu were a true joy to work with and we'll definitely be using their services in the future. I'd highly recommend them to anyone for wedding, portrait or general photo/video services. They're a bit on pricier side but you really get what you pay for and you will certainly not be disappointed.

Christine did a family photo shoot of my wife, my 2 yr old son, and I, at a nearby playground…read more Christine was great with our son, and he warmed up to her almost immediately, which is pretty unusual for him. She was professional, friendly, and her photos were the best pictures of us I've ever seen. Christine clearly has technical know-how and a creative eye.

I must start saying that this is the first negative review that I've ever wrote in my entire life…read morebecause I'm not the kind of person that likes to risk other's people job and business but since the photographer Christine Eckstein did everything in her hands to make my life miserable during the time she provided her services, I'm writing about my awful experience so that other brides won't suffer and be dissapoited the way I am. Sadly, you will never truly know how painful, stressful, consuming and frustrating has been working  with her but I'm going to try to summarize the reasons why I'm so unhappy with her work and how dreadful my experience has been: 1. She always had a "no" or a "but" to my requests, arguing with me all the time and saying that she has her own way of doing things. It was very clear for me from the beginning that her ego wasn't going to let me get to her and make her listen to what I wanted and expected from her services.   2. I bought so many props that don't even appear on the pictures because of the angles in which she took them and because she never told us that we where blocking them most of the time. 3. In most of the pictures she took pictures from my back or of my face covered by my hair while my husband's face is the main focus, making me look like some random woman.   4. She didn't edit most of the pictures and the ones that she did was obvious that she doesn't know anything at all about editing.   5. She doesn't have imagination and creativity. She took all the pictures from the same angles, she is not willing to walk around and look for different perspectives. All of my pictures from the ceremony were taken from the back and showing our backs. 6. She takes hundreds of pictures and sends you just a few because according to her she didn't like them. A wedding is a once in a lifetime event and now I would never ever have all the pictures I wanted to have from that day. 7. I gave her a list with all the objects that I wanted her to photograph and she didn't follow it. 8. There are pictures where our eyes are nearly closed. Making us look drunk or in drugs. I really doubt that that was the only or the best take that she shoot at those particular moments, but she chose to send them anyway instead of sending her best shots. Understand that I'm not happy or feel any kind of pleasure writing this review but she was wasting my money from the beginning for not being respectful, profesional or faithful to my requests. Like I said before, a wedding is a once in a lifetime event and no bride should be stressed, disapointed or sad on her wedding day due to a mediocre photographer.  Christine Eckstein it's just a little girl playing with a fancy camera.
