With us not even knowing anyone in NYC, by speaking with her over the phone, we could tell she absolutely loved doing what she loves to do! Plus, she truly is a humble person, because she really helped us out with our price! She is not only talented at what she does, but is very professional! She also made it fun!! She went above and beyond by helping me get into my dress and by putting my shoes on since I couldnt bend over in that thing! lol And videotaped the whole cereomny for us! We got married in Central Park by the Bow Bridge and Ana-Maria captured everything in the beautiful photos she took of us! She also took shots of us with the big city of New York in the background. Every shot she took was breathtaking! I would definitely recommend Ana-Maria as your photographer to capture your special moment!! She definitely has a great eye for those special shots and knows how to edit the pictures to show your absolute best!!!

I have been holding my head a little higher in the days since my shoot, what a confidence boost!!! It was just what I needed and more than I could have ever imagined. It's known to some that I had an eating disorder and body dysmorphia 30 something years ago, for which I sought treatment (back in the day when it wasn't really a positive thing to do so.) The birth of my children made things easier for me to accept myself the way I was and I have kept my negative behaviors in check because of my children, but in the last year or so I could feel my mind obsessing about my flaws and my size, which has been getting increasingly larger due to many health conditions and the inability to work out in any form, including walking. I was browsing Facebook one day and saw a photo shoot that Allie had done and decided it was finally time, even at my heaviest, I thought this would be a good reason to work on my health, I now had a goal. I was so nervous!!! This was so not me, so far out of my comfort zone, but I did it, I booked my session for my 52nd birthday. I didn't actually lose the weight I had hoped to and considered canceling multiple times, but something kept telling me to just do it!!! And I am so glad I did!!! I have never felt more beautiful and confident in my whole life!!! Allie is amazing to work with and talks you through every step. The photos she took really capture the true me!!! There were genuine smiles and real laughs in some of the photos and those were my favorites, they were so real!!! Allie is such a talented photographer!!! She was able to capture the best parts of ME!!! I could go on for days, but basically the bottom line is YOU HAVE TO DO THIS!!! YOU HAVE TO TRY IT AND SEE FOR YOURSELF!!! I have many times that I would consider to be the "best days of my life", like the birth of my children and grandchildren, my wedding day, the day I survived my accident, etc, and this day with Allie rates up there with them, it was the day I discovered myself and saw myself through Allie's lens, it was the day that my confidence grew by leaps and bounds, and it was the day that I felt my most confident and beautiful!!!

We loved Kristen as soon as we met her! We had met with several photographers before her and none…read moreof them seemed quite right. When we met with Kristen, we immediately felt like we were on the same page and she understood exactly what we were looking for. We were also really impressed with her previous work and Photoshop skills. On the day of the wedding, Kristen and Adam were both amazing. They were both calm, fun and helpful. It rained cats and dogs on our wedding day, which ruined our plans for outdoor photos. However, Kristen came with a plan to take back-lit photos of my husband and I in the rain. The pictures ended up being stunning! I really appreciate her ability to make the best out of a difficult situation and to still deliver beyond our expectations.

Kristen Schueler is nothing short of amazing. We loved her and Adam from the very moment we met…read morethem, and we knew they were the ones we wanted documenting our wedding day. She is very professional and organized and worked so hard to be prepared for every shot that she was going to take. Indeed, her work goes way beyond the wedding day itself, and it was clear she was dedicated to getting everything just right. After our engagement session, we knew there was nothing we needed to worry about, as far as photography was concerned, and we spent the months before our wedding confident that we'd have beautiful photos no matter what. On the wedding day, she and Adam went above and beyond for us: arriving early, leaving late, researching shots in advance, doing us a million favors that are outside the job of any photographer, and in general, just adding to the spirit and enjoyment of our day. Kristen has an undeniable talent for finding the beauty in everything and bringing it out in incredible photos that anyone would treasure. There are lots of talented photographers, but Kristen has a unique ability to capture emotions and real "people." She also has a real skill with lighting, and it shows when you compare her work to others. If you want an artistic photo of the bride lying in her dress in a bathtub looking like a photoshopped model or an abstract shot of the altar with the bride and groom faded out in the background, well that's cool--I'm sure she'll take those shots for you. But, if you let her do her thing, she'll create beautiful timeless photographs of you, just as you are. When you look at these photos years from now, you'll remember everything you were feeling at each exact moment. And when your children see them one day, they'll see that you are beautiful. Hiring Kristen to do our wedding photography was, hands down, the best decision we made for our wedding. Of course, we had a great venue, hair, makeup, and dresses and weather...but if any of those things had gone wrong, it wouldn't have mattered because Kristen was there. Wedding photography is a business, but it's personal. You want to have someone you can trust, someone who understands what you are looking for, and who will find the natural beauty and joy that happens on your own unique wedding day. Besides the groom, there was no one else I was happier to have by my side for 10 hours on my wedding day than Kristen Schueler. We can never thank her enough and consider her as a friend now. Thank you, Kristen!

She went above and beyond on our engagement shoot, even sending us a sneak peek the NEXT DAY so that I could have them for our one-year-out from the wedding celebration. On our wedding day she (and her second shooter Cassie) kept us organized and on time, capturing all the shots that were important to us and so many more, while still allowing us to enjoy every second of the day. She sent us an amazing sneak peek 2 days later, which was incredible, and the timeline for receiving our entire album wasn't long at all. Her editing style is exactly what we were looking for, light and airy while still keeping the color and reality of the images. Hire her as your photographer!!!!!

Not only was she completely understanding when we needed to reschedule our engagement photos three times (on account of bad weather,) but she found us the most beautiful and private areas of Cape Ann to shoot at. We were ASTONISHED by her quick turnaround time and how beautiful the pictures turned out. We have received endless compliments on them, as she was able to perfectly capture our personalities and relationship. Esther spent hours with me on the phone helping to establish my wedding timeline, answer my long list of questions, and figure out where I wanted to take our wedding photos. On the wedding day, Esther kept me calm and collected. Aside from her incredible professional abilities, she is such a kind and amiable person. We truly felt like she was our friend! We found ourselves a photographer for life and cannot imagine working with anyone else. If you're considering hiring Esther, please do. She was by far my favorite wedding vendor that we worked with!

I fell in love with their artistry and the way they captured each emotional moment with sincerity. I contacted the owner Dan via email and he responded in a timely manner and was professional throughout the entire process. We had multiple in person meetings with Dan and his wife Kendra to make sure we knew what to expect the day of. Kendra is an amazing photographer, she has a eye for different shots and made sure my hair and dress stayed in place. She helped me keep my composure while Dan was photographing the groomsmen and my husband getting ready. It's important to feel at ease with your photographers, we certainly did. Dan and Kendra are a wonderful team and made my husband and I feel so comfortable. I was a curvaceous bride and they found so many flattering shots and angles. I cried after seeing the images because I couldn't believe I could look so beautiful. Our wedding album is pure joy to look through. They put a lot of effort into making the best day of my life memorable. You are in great hands with Lightshed Photography. Lightshed has a studio in Salem and they do family portraits too! We look forward to having them capture the next chapter in our lives.

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.
