A colleague once told me, "...when you feel the urge to take a leap, jump!"…read more With this future venture into private practice, I had been eyeing Rachel McFarlin Photography. One day in May, I decided that it was time to "jump" into scheduling a head shot photo appointment. I was pleased with the quick response (same day!) and Rachel's willingness to meet with me prior to leaving out of town the following week. There was no rush for my request. I was open to meeting with her upon her return. At the head shot photo appointment, Rachel was easy to speak with. She was open to getting to know me and my upcoming business journey, which I really appreciated. I felt at ease and a sense of trust and confidence. She was great with giving me direction and helped with fixing my bangs/hair when they wanted to go their every-which-way. I was impressed with the quick turnaround. I viewed and downloaded my photos the following day! Overall, I highly recommend Rachel for head shot photos! You won't be disappointed!

Scary that this lady is in business. First off, she doesn't respond very well to emails. She picked…read morea random time for us to show up, when we had only agreed on a date. Then once we get there, she says how awful the light is, that no photos will come out. (yes, it had become a bit overcast). But then, she insults my wife's wardrobe! "Is that what you are planning on wearing?" with condescending tone. Then she says "I just don't like it." Really?! For someone who is in any service business that is astonishing Then she says we should reschedule for a different day. She showed us some photos, on her computer from a "good day" and a "bad day". None of them looked like anything better than what you or I could take with our camera. To make matters worse she could not even get our names right (even after being corrected 3 times for each of us!).

I was nervous since I didn't know anything about the photographer but I am sooo happy I did it! Lauren is amazing. She is a very down-to-earth person which instantly put me at ease. She has had a very extensive career both in front of and behind the camera so she knows all of the tricks. I felt Lauren did an amazing job on my makeup (I can only do the basics!). It looked very polished and professional. During the one hour session, we had two wardrobe changes outside and two inside. Cedros Avenue is a cool little street and Lauren was able to find some great places to take pictures. After the session, she uploaded the digital proofs in the same day! I was able to look through them in them at home and send the link to friends and family to help decide which pictures I should go with. Her prices for the digital proofs are very reasonable. I highly recommend Lauren Taylor Photography to anyone. I used her for professional photos but I saw some really great pictures she took of families, expecting mothers, weddings and portraits around her studio. I will definitely use her services again in the future.

So happy to have met Kim and her husband and happy that they were able to share our wedding with us. I loved that they were as excited to be shooting at the San Diego Zoo as we were to be getting married there. They loved the animals and it showed in the pictures.

And by the way, did I mention how awesome she is? She is seriously, just a down to earth, chill, funny, honest & real person. I mean, how many times can you say on your first phone call to your vendor you spoke for over an hour, of which, the first 30 mins or less was about the actual shoot, the rest was about anything under the sun cuz you clicked (pun potentially intended) well THAT much! You may think... "Nahhh, I'm not photogenic" "Ooo, what about the 50 lbs I gained since high school, do I have to pay for them to be in the shoot too?" "Great pictres are going to cost me AT LEAST a bajillion dollars!" Don't fret, Kim's got this. She will make you look like a million bucks, without having to spend a bajillion of your own!
