She truly understands how to take natural light into your advantage so that the photos come out crisp and much nicer than from a studio session. After hundreds of pictures we sat together and chose the best ones. Then she retouched and cropped them to make sure that there were no imperfections and that the image would fit nicely into the pages I needed. Overall, Sophie exceeded my expectations both in quality and price. I have recommended her to professional associations, and will definitely use her services again.

Nicole is a fantastic photographer! My family has been using her for the last 3 years to do a…read morefamily vacation photo shoot and each year the pictures get better and better! She's an LBI local who's very familiar with the best spots to capture photographs. She's super personable and easy to get along with, which makes for a relaxing photo session. Our family photo shoots involve 6 adults and 3 kids and she captures everyone along with smaller groups (like grandparents with the grandkids or individual families). She is patient and understanding and knows how crazy it can be when kids get tired or rambunctious. She can do multiple locations for photo shoots - just recently we did the beach for some pics and then headed to Sunset Park to use as another location. In years past we used the lighthouse. I would highly recommend Nicole to capture any family memories, whether it's a wedding or, if you're like us, on vacation and want to get professional photos to capture everyone. Kids grow up quick and we're so grateful to have these beautiful keepsakes to look back on!

This review is extremely overdue! Nicole shot our wedding on 2/16/20 at the Park Chateau as well…read moreas engagement photos and she was incredible! Nicole was beyond helpful throughout the process, was easily accessible for questions, patient, and super organized (which is HUGE)! From the first time we sat with Nicole, I knew that she was an addition we wanted for our special day. Nicole basically serves as a day-of-coordinator with the detailed timeline she puts together for the day (sorry I deviated from it sometimes LOL). Nicole has the best personality and the ability to get a group to focus so pictures can be completed efficiently! Our parents and bridal party loved her and her second shooter, Mel. Nicole was also open to suggestions throughout the day if I felt like I wanted a specific photo in the moment. We received SO MANY photos back with our full album, each one better than the next, making it so difficult to choose a photo for our canvas and pick our album! Thank you Nicole for making what can be a stressful process so seamless with your knowledge, poise, and flexibility. I would hands down choose you again if I could to be apart of our special day. Nicole truly loves what she does and it shows in her work. Look no further, she is your girl!

Of all the hundreds of decisions involved in planning my wedding, choosing Devon was the easiest,…read moreand the one that I continue to be thankful for nearly every day. The day of the wedding Devon was a calming force: super relaxed, able to herd my raucous bridal party, and always having an answer to my questions. Every moment of the wedding was captured, from extended family portraits to a quiet moment shared between my husband and I at the reception; yet Devon and her team felt nearly invisible- never pushy, always just capturing the event happening around them. I'm super proud of my wedding pictures, mostly because they capture exactly how I felt on that day- joyous, excited, filled with love for everyone around me. I don't know that anyone but Devon would have been able to capture that feeling. I know I'm still going to be in love with these pictures when I'm old and grey. I can't recommend Devon enough.

Devon was all we could of asked for in a photographer; professional, engaging, and her laid back nature and free form shooting really put our wedding party at ease. My husband was typical of most grooms in that he didn't want to spend hours on end posing for shots; Devon was respectful of that and worked in some amazing photos in the hour and 1/2 before our ceremony started. Devon and her assistant Bonnie were in the background during our ceremony and reception in the best way possible; not at all intrusive to the point that we forgot we were being photographed! In my opinion, that was a great thing!

My husband and I were thrilled with Johns and Leena photography for our engagement and wedding…read morephotos! My husband was in charge of finding photographers for our wedding, as he is an amateur landscape photographer and knew what to look for and ask. Johns and Leena were the perfect fit. We had a couple of engagement sessions with them to get to know them and their style. It was super helpful as neither of used have posed for professional photos before. They gave us tips on poses and how to not look so awkward (ha!). When we saw those photos, we knew we chose correctly. They have a great mix of understanding what you need for a traditional stand point for wedding photography but also have a unique way of capturing all the beautiful details and surroundings to make it that much more magical. Leading up to our wedding they made sure they had all the information they needed to do an amazing job. We shared our pinterest board, filled out a form and had a walkthrough with them on the days' schedule. Even on the day of our wedding, my husband walked around our venue with them to show them particular areas we wanted photographed. Throughout the process they were very patient, flexible, and made everyone feel very comfortable. The pricing was very fair and the photos are very high quality- they were able to capture all the important moments of the day and night. We are truly thankful that we chose them to capture such a special day for us.

Kyo and Janna were wonderful to work with, and I'm so glad we hired them for our wedding…read more I had very little to compare them to at the time of our wedding, but I've since learned that most weddings feature hours and hours of time that you have to spend taking portraits. Why? Why would anyone want that for themselves? Kyo assured us that he would be able to take do our bridal, bridal party, and family portraits in an hour or less. Lo and behold, he made it so - even after we started 15 minutes late. Kyo kept our wedding on time, and the photos turned out beautifully. I should add that at one point, Kyo laid in the middle of a Manhattan construction zone to take super artistic photos of us with the Flatiron building... because that is how committed he is to his craft! Janna and Kyo both were extremely responsive during the planning process, and provided helpful advice. We received our photos a week ahead of schedule, and they're all fabulous - plenty of fun candids and beautiful portraits that we will treasure for years to come.

Candy and team were very responsive and answered all of my questions prior to booking. The maternity session was such a treat and so stress-free! I decided at 34 weeks that I wanted maternity photos and Candy made it happen. There are so many dresses to choose from so I didn't have to worry about shopping for dresses. I just showed up with a small bag and Candy and Nicole took care of the rest. They were so kind and made me feel at ease during my session. It was nice get done up after spending most of my pregnancy during the pandemic in loungewear. The newborn session was also fantastic! It's apparent that Candy has a lot of experience with babies and trusted her with my daughter. Similar to the maternity session, Candy thinks of it all and makes the experience exceptional...from the preparation to the props, wraps, and accessories she provides. I am so happy we were able to capture these moments and love the photos and albums. And finally but not least... the makeup and hair!! Not only is Nicole very sweet, she is very talented! She did my makeup both times and I loved it.... so much that I slept in my makeup after the second session (figured it was worth risking any breakouts!) If you are looking for fantastic photos, a great end-to-end experience, with a professional and kind team, I highly recommend Sugashoc. Sugashoc, Candy and Nicole - Thanks so much!
