The photographer is incredibly patient and professional, yet makes the session feel fun and natural -- no stiff poses, no "say cheese" nonsense. The photos themselves are amazing. Every shot captures genuine smiles and personality, whether it's a family session, a beach backdrop, or just everyday moments. You leave with images that look effortless but feel full of character. From start to finish, the experience is smooth and enjoyable. The staff make you feel comfortable, guide you through poses naturally, and ensure the end result is something you'll actually want to display. Highly recommend for anyone wanting professional photos without the awkwardness of a traditional studio.

I cannot emphasize enough the photographic skill and creativity of Richel Lavette. I recently…read morehosted a once-in-a-lifetime fraternity "Chartering" event that included both an early afternoon initiation, as well as a 190 person celebratory banquet including dinner, numerous guest speakers and awards to be presented. She handled both events professionally and with a great eye for framing, lighting and spontaneity. Richel Lavette is the consummate professional photographer. Her skill set includes image set up, proper lighting, images that tell a story, taking charge of large group photos with incredible tact, and looking for the small details that make a good image even better. Ms. Lavette can see what others do not. Her experience, and speed in finding the right images tell an unparalleled story. She requires initial input from the client, and once she understands the priorities, Richel can work independently with little to no supervision. But, beyond her obvious skills as a photographer, she has a strong work ethic and is always ready to capture a spontaneous moment that some photographers simply do not see. Her people skills are outstanding, and is always encouraging people to smile, and have fun while being photographed. Her greatest skills? The ability to listen, interpret, and deliver spectacular results. Lavette Photo Studios is an excellent photo studio, and I give Richel, and her studio my highest recommendations. She earned it.

One visit, there were two employees working at the time and the girl had an attitude with what the other employee as it seems as he was new. I then waited for my coffee for 15 minutes before I told them I had been waiting and they admitted they forgot about my order. The placed wasn't busy at all so I was confused. The specialty coffees I have ordered weren't the best either. I have kept visiting hoping to maybe see if anything has changed but unfortunately, I don't think I will be back. The parking lot is very small and they also share parking with other businesses so going on the weekend can be a bit of a nightmare. This coffee place seems more tailored for co-working so it doesn't give me the cozy coffee vibes I gravitate towards.

I can't recommend room 3307 enough!! I have had many photo shoots and nothing compares to Carolina…read moreand her staff ! First of all the day of your shoot you are literally treated like a princess, make up and hair .. champagne and snacks. Carolina sat and talked with me while I was getting done up for the shoot and I loved that because we talked as we had known one another a while and that made me feel completely comfortable for the day. My make up and hair were outstanding! During the shoot Carolina guided me the whole way in poses and outfits I brought . ( the studio is beautiful and she has plenty of things to borrow if needed). Normally in a shoot when the pictures are done I like at the most 3 .. umm I liked almost every single picture! So much that I think i will have a total of 20 photos soon . Also you will see your photos that day !!!! Again I would recommend them always and I will use the again in the future.

I cannot recommend Room 3307 more highly…read more I decided to do a boudoir photoshoot as a Hanukkah gift for my husband. Usually they only book boudoir photoshoots during the weekdays, but since I recently started a new job, I didn't have the PTO to make that happen. Luckily, we found one Sunday that worked (and we seriously only had the option of one Sunday. These girls are busy!). I prepared everything in secret so my husband wouldn't know, since it was a surprise gift. I would definitely suggest getting a spray tan the day before (and I highly suggest You Glow). It made my pictures pop that much more and I got rid of my terrible tan lines! Carolina sent me an email with instructions about the day. I didn't even need a phone consultation, because her communications were so thorough. I used to drive by her studio every day going home from work and I never knew it was there! It is really easy to get to - just down the street from International Plaza. Everyone was there when I arrived. Carolina works with Anna and Lo for Hair and Makeup. They are also phenomenal. I was worried, because being Asian I've had bad experience with makeup artists in the past. I had no reason to be worried at all. I showed them a picture from my wedding of the type of look I wanted and they perfected it to a tee. I think hair and makeup is so important for this type of shoot, so I'm glad she partners with such amazing talent. I brought three different looks. Carolina suggested I try standard black pumps, which she had already at the studio, instead of the shoes I brought. I'm glad she made that suggestion. My outfits looked ten times better with her shoes. She did a great job walking me through the poses. Even the ones that felt awkward looked amazing when I saw the proofs. She had three different sets for the three different outfits. After taking the pictures I got to go get lunch while she curated the pictures. Since I majorly dieted for these pictures I attacked the scones she provided and then went over to International to grab some food. About an hour later I returned to choose which five pictures I wanted for my book. The book itself is pretty neat. It is called an accordion book, because there is a page that pulls out like an accordion to be an even larger page. That way you can give a full body shot the space it deserves. She has a large tv where she pulls up the pictures and you go through rounds deciding which you like and which you don't to narrow it down to five. I felt like such a narcissist, because I loved all the pictures. Carolina makes it easy to choose between pictures, because she can pull up multiple ones to show you side by side. Once you decide on five pictures you get to choose which picture goes where in the book and then you're done! About a month later she sent me the edited pictures, which I adored. Once I approved them they were sent off to be turned into a book. It was such an amazing and empowering experience overall. Best thing is my husband absolutely loved the gift! Trust me, I know ;) Originally, I balked at the price, but after looking around I realized that for good quality, this is what you will have to pay. The hair and makeup is included so it isn't too bad. Also, almost naked pictures of yourself are not what you want to skimp on. If you're going to do boudoir pictures, I would tell you to stop looking and book Carolina. You will not regret it.
