We received a link to a photo gallery, and got to choose our favorites from those. The turnaround time was just a few days!

She's easy to communicate with, genuinely listens to what you want, and goes above and beyond to make it happen.

She also came to our home initially before the baby was born for an intimate maternity shoot on such a short notice, which turned out amazing all around!

And to have many amazing photos to show for the least possible amount of time to shoot is nothing short of amazing, and illustrates the quality of output you would receive from KLK. Not only that, Kristi and Paul are the cutest, most down to earth and friendliest people you'll meet in the industry. We have only received our wedding teasers to date, and they were all outstanding. Can't wait to see the rest of the wedding images which KLK has communicated will complete in the next week or so - we also purchased a custom wedding photo book which we are very excited about! We can't recommend KLK enough and truly made the best choice picking them as our wedding photographers-- simply one of a kind!

I needed a professional photo for my Linked In profile. I googled photographers in my area, and found Tashia's website. I was impressed with the way she was able to bring her clients to life in her photos, without making them into something they aren't in real life. I called her, and in spite of being in the middle of setting up her new studio she agreed to photograph me that same day! She made the process easy and comfortable, offered great suggestions, and in a few minutes captured my natural smile. By the next morning I received a photo that was exactly what I needed. Tashia clearly has a talent for taking photos that capture the personalities of her clients. I highly recommend her for any photos you need. read more

I highly rate Tashia on her professional photography services, including the retouch of my photos that made a huge difference in the quality of my portraits. Tashia has a wonderful way of making you feel comfortable in front of the camera and just be yourself. Before my appointment with Tashia I was nervous about my smile looking frozen, but she knew when and how to take my picture so that I would have a natural looking smile. She is amazing!! I recommend Tashia to anyone who wants to have high quality photos and feel at ease while getting your picture taken. To top it off, she is friendly, courteous, efficient, and I already mentioned professional. I will recommend Tashia to everyone I know. read more

Wow! Tashia is a photography star! I had been dreading having business headshots done for a year. I finally forced myself to make an appointment after consulting Yelp. Tashia is amazing. I can't believe how beautiful I look in my headshots. I think she's part magician. And, she's FAST. I was in her studio about 10 minutes. Finished, retouched photo files in my email first thing the next day. And her prices are great. Don't even look for another photographer.

Very professional and has a whole system and full photo setup with lighting and backdrops, etc. Of course it's normal to feel nervous having your picture taken 100 times and moving and tilting your head and body, but Mark made me feel very comfortable and not awkward! After the shoot I received my proofs within 24 hours and I was not pleased, but he said just focus on your expression as this is not the final retouched photo. I was stuck on the whole image and explained my concerns to Mark. He did a few edits and retouching and within a few hours I had the final product. I think it came out natural and very professional. After I submitted them to our corporate library, the sizing and resolution was not compatible (face palm).

Jack Randall Photography & Video

(239 reviews)

*** Review based on the Groupon deal only ***…read more Recently I need a photoshoot for social poses and discovered Jack Randall Photography via the Groupon deal. [Groupon package]: One hour family portrait session with one 8X10, two 4X6, and 5 low resolution digital images - original price = $430 but Groupon price = $49. Must return to the studio to view the photos or pay $399 to release all digital photos over the phone (no prior notice & only learned about the additional cost few days after the session). Appointment required and must call business number (no email option upon the first contact) to make an appointment (open from 9 AM - 3 PM for scheduling). Customers will need to leave name, email, phone number, and Groupon redemption code over the call. [Caveat #1 - location]: The Groupon deal stated "capture memories at 9 scenic Orange County spots", but in reality the studio only offers 5 locations (Caspers Wilderness Park. Los Rios Historic District, able Rock Beach, Serrano Creek Park, and Mission San Juan Capistrano). Mission San Juan Capistrano requires additional arrangement and an extra charge. Over the call, Studio Manager Kimberly offered beach or park locations as soon as next day or the upcoming weekend & I took the next day option. [Photoshoot session at 7 PM]: I met owner Jack at Table Rock Beach exactly at 7 PM and he was friendly & easy to work with. He instructed me with couple poses and was able to take approximately 100+ pictures in 30 minutes. The sun set at 7:30 PM and we couldn't take any more pictures after dark, so the session ended and Jack said to give him a call in two days to finalize the process. [Finalizing process - additional package & payment]: Unfortunately this is where the miscommunication & blindside on additional cost happened. I called Jack to finalize the process and he said few options are available including paying additional $39.99 to download all digital copies. All I heard is $39.99 and immediately gave my credit card info over the phone. Jack said I will receive a link to download in few hours later and I went out to watch movies. After I came back home, I decided to check my credit card account and to my surprise I saw $399.99 charged to my card instead. [Caveat #2 - pricing]: Jack did reach out the following day after I had left a voicemail and he emailed me the description of the Digital Package which is listed $399 (high resolution digital download + additional free session at a preferred location within 180 days & can be given as a gift + 20% off all custom prints ordered on day of digital package purchase.) Essentially I was paying $49 Groupon deal + $399 for all digital copies for a 30-minute session. [Communication]: Honestly I didn't mind spending a little extra on top of the Groupon deal, but $399 completely exceeded the amount I was willing to spend or else I wouldn't accept the digital package. I was able to clarify the misunderstanding with Jack over the call and found a middle ground solution at the end. [Conclusion]: I reviewed my digital high resolution pictures and they definitely looked very professional, but I really wish the studio can just send out a list of additional pricing options over an email instead of discussing it over a call to avoid misunderstanding. 5-star on quality of photos, 4-star on communication & resolution, and 1-star on Groupon deal with a lack of transparency on additional costs.
