If there were one word I could use to describe my photo session at Lolo's Boudoir, it would be:…read morebaptismal. That may be far too dramatic a term but it really sums up my inspiring photo experience with photographer Lone Mrch Schneider. My 34th birthday was approaching and I wanted to replace the standard feelings of gloom about growing older with a more positive experience. Indulging myself with a sexy and revealing boudoir photo session was the best birthday gift I could give to myself. In a serendipitous way I happened upon Lolo's Boudoir website (www.lolosboudoir.com) and instantly knew she was the one. Her photographic style instinctively appealed to me: ethereal but natural, timeless, spontaneous, sensual and revealing yet at times coquettish. I can't claim to be an expert on the art of photography but I have strong opinions on what I like and don't like. So many other photo boudoir websites had revealed to be tacky, campy and very artificial. Lolo's Boudoir has heartfelt style. Before our session I felt a little self conscious and I had warned Lone that I might prove to be one of her more 'curvier' clients and that given the wrong angle I might not be one of her most photogenic! She reassured me through examples from her portfolio she would discover the best I had to give. Lone possesses artistic mindfulness. She kindly encouraged the real me to the surface and helped me uncover the beauty I thought I never possessed. The entire experience was an awakening and rebirth of my sensual spirit. Lone has the magical ability to transform any environment. We had an outdoors photo shoot where she transformed the forest into a starlet's dressing room. Lone's gentle, fun and professional personality allowed me to shed all inhibitions. I spent a cold winter morning frolicking about the forest, playing the role of nymph, drama queen and even bathing beauty as I shed all and luxuriated in the freezing cold stream water. At that moment I felt I had experienced a 'creative baptism' of sorts. Regardless of just whom you have in mind while you're smiling (or smirking, flirting, luring) for while posing for the camera lens; you should always be posing for yourself. Just you. A photographic experience at Lolo's Boudoir is all about you. It's a special time for you to be sensual, carefree, indulgent, sexy and alluring. With a complimentary glass of champagne and a few nibbles of fine chocolate...how could you not be?

We hired HOBR to shoot our Halloween fashion show at a nightclub. I communicated with her that…read morethere's minimal lighting and space to shoot but hope she was able to capture the designers' work and she did! I'm surprised how great the quality of the photos came out in such a dark setting with a crowd. She got amazing angles of the models and her editing highlighted the fabric details which is very important on the garments. Rachel came prepared and was easy to work with. The fashion show happened on 10/28 and I received the photos today 11/2. That is a very quick turnaround for shooting 6 designers and over 50 models. I'm impressed how fast pace she works and being able to jungle any issues that pops out of nowhere. I highly recommend HOBR and will hire her again for my next event.

Let me note, that I am extremely shy and pretty self-conscious about my body and they made me feel completely comfortable after five minutes of meeting them. On their website, it says that they do this specifically to try to help women face and overcome body image issues and do they ever do an AMAZING job at it!!!!! I recommend that EVERY woman at some point in her life do something like this, and I highly HIGHLY recommend going to Carey and her team to insure this experience is 100% successful. I am not a model, but they made me feel like one and the final images are just....epic. From hair to makeup to attire to accessories to coaching on poses to "choo" (lol), Shameless Photography has it ALL! And I was able to do this with a friend, so we did a shoot together (in addition to individual shoot), which was so fun!! Just a warning, you will feel muscles you didn't know existed the next day - but it will be worth it! :) So much gratitude, Carey & Shameless Team! I plan to continue telling everyone I know about the awesome and healing work you do with the women you photograph!!!!

I actually found him after speaking with a different boudoir photography company whose ad I had seen on Instagram; I decided to do some research before committing to anyone, and found Cheshire on Yelp, checked out his website, and put in an inquiry. He called me very quickly and the conversation was so different from the other places I spoke with! Instead of just laying out "here's how it works, here's what you get for this price," etc., he asked a lot about what I was looking for, what I hoped to get out of it, my motivations or inspirations, etc. That personal touch carried throughout the experience. He consistently made an effort to understand what I was looking for--from the planning process to the photo shoot to going through the photos afterward--to make sure that I got exactly what I was hoping for. The photos themselves are absolutely awesome. It's incredible the different looks and feels he creates in a relatively small studio. More importantly, he just has an incredible eye for what is going to look good and how to create looks, moods, etc. I felt super comfortable the whole time, and I think that shows in the final product. Everyone who has seen my pictures has been blown away. He's way more than just a photographer; he's a true artist. Never in a million years had I ever imagined having a giant naked photo of myself on my wall, and yet here we are...and everyone who's seen it has been amazed. Can't recommend him highly enough!

Denise is phenomenal and she surrounds herself with a team that is professional, considerate and competent. There were a fair amount of questions I had to answer about which photos we wanted and this made me feel at ease knowing that the team would make sure I got all the photos I wanted for my special day. I ordered a boudoir photo package in addition to the wedding photos and video. The boudoir photo shoot was an incredible experience and Denise made me feel incredibly at ease and sexy as hell. I got the proofs and was able to view them in the studio - this was a special day and it was helpful having another set of eyes and also someone there to help me not be so critical of myself!! The final result was a book of photos of me feeling sexy, confident and amazing. My husband sat, mouth open, carefully going through each page and I felt like the most beautiful girl in the world. On our wedding day there were absolutely ZERO ISSUES. When Denise arrived, I breathed a sigh of relief, she took care of everything. I was confident that the pictures were going to be exactly what I wanted and then some. Overall, my experience with Modern Love was beyond anything I could have ever dreamed of. They know how to take incredible photos and have done a lot of training to ensure that they are getting photos that you not only see as visually beautiful but photos that make you feel something, photos that make you experience and witness the beauty and magic of a moment. Thank you Denise and all of Modern Love for an incredible day!!

This is honestly a hard review for me to write. I did love Denise and her personality, and I loved…read moremy engagement shoot that I did with Katie. But my wedding shoot was extremely, so extremely disappointing. We opted not to have a videographer and told people not to take pictures during the ceremony, so I'm just left with sad pictures( or the lack of pictures I guess). For starters, the photographers were 45 minutes late. I heard there was a lot of traffic, and I wonder if this is the first thing that threw everything off. We initially signed a contract for Denise and Katie as the second shooter, but we found out that Katie was promoted as a main photographer, so there was a new guy. The second photographer was nice but pretty useless. You could tell which photos he shot, and they were pretty poor. He did the groomsmen getting ready, but all of the photos are just close ups. The guys did a pillow fight (tradition with his friends), and every single one of them is just a close up of a man holding a pillow. Also, one of the reasons we chose the venue was due to its interior, and I spent a lot of time looking at wedding photos done inside the building. I remember asking for photos in the hallway and taking a bunch, but I didn't see any. I was told they couldn't shoot properly in there because of the lighting. I'm not sure why all the other photographers from that venue were able to get pictures, but I couldn't. We ended up with a handful of portraits, many of them disappointing because either my hair is blowing all over my face or my husband couldn't keep a straight face. We spent a good portion of our decorating budget on flowers, but I don't have a single photo of my centerpieces. My florist asked to add them to my portfolio, but I didn't have any to offer her. The biggest, most disappointing issue is that there are zero pictures of the whole wedding party, and I don't have a single photo of the whole family. How did that escape people? I wasn't keeping track of each photo, and I really expected the photographers to do that. I don't have one with just my parents or with my sister, who was my maid of honor. These pictures were things I just took for granted. It definitely wasn't because we ran out of time because between the ceremony and reception, I was just sitting around in my room for about 45 minutes. Aside from Denise's personality,  I was extremely disappointed with the whole day.  I even tried to get a refund for the "trash the dress" session I had also purchased and was met with a refusal. They did refund us for the cost of a second photographer though. To this day, I get really sad seeing other great wedding photos and for years thinking about it could bring me to the verge of tears. That being said, obviously I survived and I did absolutely love my wedding. I still have beautiful memories of my wedding, and I'm happily married with a gorgeous kiddo. I just wish I had some photos too.

While they did show up and film the event, I only received part of what I paid for, and the rest of my footage has still not been delivered, despite multiple attempts to reach out. What's been the most disappointing is the complete lack of communication. I've been polite and patient, but my messages go unanswered, even though I was promised specific deliverables in my contract. It's incredibly upsetting to spend hard earned money and trust someone with such an important day, only to feel ignored once the event is over. I hope this review helps others make an informed decision and encourages better communication and follow through for future clients.
