We searched around a lot for the right photographer, which is harder than you'd think. Even though…read moreshe lives in New Hartford, she serves the entire Central New York and Syracuse area and was happy to come to our wedding, which was in Syracuse. Lisa was fantastic throughout--very prompt to return e-mails, very accommodating. Her work was great--she got some really interesting shots of us, but also let us just be ourselves and do our thing (instead of having us do weird poses). She has great packages and did ours for the whole day--which is nice since a lot of photographers mess around with hourly rates. When she was there, she was a fly on the wall when we needed her to be (i.e., during the ceremony and the reception) and proactive when it was most important, such as helping guide my wife through the details (i.e., how to cut the cake) and get people organized for group photos. She was such a pleasure to work with!

Lauren Michele Poucel is owner and photographer of Tide + Pines Photography and boy what an awesome…read morephotographer she is! She's timely, ENERGETIC and just a fantastic person to coordinate with! We left feeling like she was a part of our dynamic family. It's a rarity when I get my husband and three young, adult children together on any given day so when it does happen - what do I do? BOOK A PHOTOGRAPHER QUICK!! Actually, it took quite a bit of planning to get my family to get a day off together - booking Lauren/Tides + Pines was a BREEZE!! I found out about Lauren / Tides + Pines through a mutual friend and I was happy with the style of pictures taken of her at her event so I nabbed her up quickly before her calendar filled. Her natural style/approach and minimal editing to photography is what appealed to me. We decided to meet at not-so-secret-beach at Ko'Olina at which time Lauren and her bubbly self show up. Unlike most photographers that I've come across, she doesn't really stage you for shots (if that's the style you're looking for). I wanted raw..."semi-staged" photos that captures our family personality and dynamics. Something easy...not stiff or staged because that's just not us. We have the Chandler Bing smiler, the ham, critical mommy, the "i don't wanna smile, my eyes are not even because of these dimples," to the anthro poser. We're just not good photo subjects for any photographer. Lauren makes the photo session seemingly painless!! Really!! Just be yourself and she will discreetly move and shoot while you are in motion. She may suggest places for you to sit or stand but all in all, the shots are up to you - she just shoots them. And shoot is what she does!! She nimbly moves and maneuvers herself in places that allows her the best shots (i saw her in the bush, on top of slippery rocks, tide pools and on the ground in the sand). She's just the easiest photographer to work with that I've ever met and made the awkward photo session gut busting fun and oh so painless. Our proofs were sent to us immediately (within a week). I'm sure that as soon as word is out that she is that good - her turn around time for proofs will increase in time. But for now, we are quite lucky to have discovered such a gem in a field already littered with talented photographers. She was quick to add that if we wanted anything edited she would be able to do it but really, we were just so pleased with ALL our pictures!! It wouldn't have been fair to have her edit 50 pounds off my pictures so I guess "raw" is what we are going with this year. We all looked great and I was happy to see that she did capture the essence of our family.

Becki is very professional & personable. We have had our family pictures done with her for the…read morepast 4 years and they are ALWAYS wonderful pictures with some unique shots for Christmas cards. She has also done events like my son's 7th & 8th spring fling, my brother's appendix cancer walk, along with I have seen her at many community functions/events. She is very talented, very giving and patient. She most recently helped a mom during a challenging time when the mom had unexpectedly lost her son. Becki collected all the photos and printed them at her cost and put them on boards she purchased. They turned out as 3 beautiful memory boards for this family. Becki has also helped me with a few projects that I recently did and she can make a hot mess collage look like a million bucks collage. :-) Her prices are worth every penny...you WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!
