She takes her time trying to achieve that very special look that would even amazeva novice in the field. She seems to know with her eye that special moment, which is hard for photigraphers to achieve. I believe she places herself as the "persona" for you, wanting your photos to appear with the beauty, grace that she would want for herself. You will be pleased with her work.

There's a reason why her sessions are referral only. Even though she considers herself a hobbyist /…read morefreelance photographer, whispers of her flawless talent for angles, lighting, and moment capture is beginning to spread throughout our city; in volumes from one potential client to the next. I first heard about her at a church I attend with my wife last week. A fellow parishioner spoke of her holiday photo session with her sons and talked my wife into scheduling our holiday photos with Angie. After researching her website, I was skeptical because her prices and packages were incredibly generous, i.e. "too good to not have some sort of catch". But I love my wife and of course supported her curiosity about this Angie person. I was suprised when she called her and was told she had to schedule us three months out at the very soonest. I was even more shocked when my wife booked it regardless. Angie is incredibly thoughtful. She took the time to squeeze in a shoot yesterday; and I had an absolute blast in her studio. This is a guy saying that! Angie really put my wife and I in a realm of class and glamour with every click of her Nikon. She also handled our "slightly" rambunctious children with such finess and grace. I won't further spoil the experience you will have with Angie, but If you ever need your memories captured in a memorable way, I highly advise you to visit her site and seek her out. Trust me, you'll know someone who knows about Angelique Patrick Photography.

Carly photographed our wedding and did a fantastic job capturing everything. We couldn't have been…read moremore pleased with the photos! Take a look: http://www.carlyshortphotography.net/rustic-ohio-wedding Carly also has a great personality and is just awesome to be around. She even pitched in to help with wedding set up at one point! I was also super grateful that my photographer was a cool, younger female with great taste, especially when she was photographing us getting ready. She was able to capture some great moments that an older, stodgier man wouldn't have. :) Especially if you're creative and a bit unconventional, Carly is definitely, definitely your best bet. By the end of the day, I felt like I'd known her for years. I loved everything about working with Carly. I really cannot recommend her highly enough!

Most importantly, the photos were stunningly beautiful. We couldn't be more pleased with how they turned out. We had them within a few days and had double the shots we expected because Carly brought a second, equally talented and unobtrusive photog with her. She will have our business for as long as she wants it. I couldn't recommend her highly enough.

This address houses the Reid, Elk, Nest, and Oxen studios. There's a small sign outside the…read morebuilding, but it's pretty underwhelming until you get inside. GPS takes you to the right building for directing clients there. PROS: -The studios are beautifully decorated with enough "spots" to give you a variety of shots in a single room. In general, photographers seem to be great about returning the space back to its original, shiny space, so you'll end up with a beautiful studio that's easy to access (please make sure to continue the trend!). -Booking the studios is super easy. As long as there's free time slots, you can book and pay for your rental spots online. -Getting into the studios is easy too. Ahead of time, you'll be texted the necessary codes (for photographer use only) to get into the studios. These seem to be automated texts, so I've never had someone forget. -Elk has its own restroom, and so does Reid (both in-studio). Other studios in the building have an available restroom outside of the studio but in the building. -The multi-floor set-up here means that you get some really lovely natural light on the higher studios. Since it's a natural light studio, this makes for much easier shooting. I'm particularly fond of Elk and Reid - which have a TON of natural light. -Bathrooms are always clean and well-stocked. Most studios have in-room temperature control, but the studios are always decently near room temp unlike some unheated/uncooled studios in warehouse buildings. This one is in an older office-esque building. CONS: -Within the last year, Lion & Ram's ownership changed hands. It looks like the new studio owners (or managers) may not be photographers as the holiday preview photos for the studios aren't great lighting representations of what the studios actually look like. There's a lot more natural light in Elk than the 2023 Holiday previews show. I'm glad because I almost didn't book because of the darkness of the preview photos. -Do be aware that there are multiple flights of stairs to some of the studios here. Lion & Ram is good about noting this on their website, but make sure you're ready to walk at least 1 flight of stairs to the lower-most studio - and 3 to the top.

She did a fantastic job of staging and angling all of the photos. None of the photos look like they were "just taken in our house." And during the process she had wonderful, cute ideas for all kinds of poses throughout the house and photos in the nursery. We had a great experience with her and would definitely use Layne Photography again!
