He would make small corrections about hand placement, hairs out of place and small details to make the picture as perfect as can be. He made us feel so comfortable and encouraged great poses to really feel the moment. The photos are stunning.. 10/10 for quality, kindness, professionalism and a truly awesome guy! Thank you Adam!!

The pictures came out great! We had such a blast and I'm pleasured with the results.read more

I was happy with my professional headshot session from beginning to end. I completed their online…read moreform and received an email response promptly. They asked about my availability and recommended a gray background unless I had something else in mind. I scheduled my appointment for a morning session at their studio, which has its own small parking lot. My session was 40 minutes, including time afterward to select the pose I wanted. I appreciated the dressing room to fix my makeup and hair before the session. They had some hairspray, tissues, and hand lotion in the room. My photographer, Trevor, was friendly and professional and made me feel comfortable in front of the camera. He gave me great directions and helped me select the best pose. During COVID, he and other staff had masks on. The total cost was $150. I will receive a high-resolution image for printing and a low-resolution image for screens/internet by email. I can't wait! I've never had a professional headshot taken and I wish I'd done it sooner. I would not hesitate to consider this studio if you want a professional experience and product.

We just found out that our Corgi has lymphoma. Before he passes, we wanted to get some nice family…read morephotos to remember him by. We paid a family friend to take photos and I am truly sad that I actually paid for those. So I asked around for a professional photographer with a studio, as our youngest pup isn't fully vaccinated, and that was good with pets. Based off recommendations from friends, I emailed four photographers in the area and Tourine from Johnstone Studios was one of the first to respond in a timely manner. Due to the time constant, we didn't do the complimentary consultation, but just made an appointment for the photos on a Sunday afternoon of that week. She did ask what breeds of dogs they were, to make sure she'd have the correct background color ready. We showed up 15 minutes early and she met us at the door. Tourine was warm and welcoming to both us and the pups. Johnstone Studios is beautifully set up, both welcoming and professionally decorated.We went upstairs to a studio with hard wood floors and she went to work. She was extremely kind to the pups and knew how to keep their attention. Tourine had a great energy and the dogs fed off of that. I could tell that Tourine has experience with working with dogs, as she waved treats, talked to them, jumped around and used a train whistle to see what they responded to best. Our Crogi is a ham and loves to take pictures, but our new golden doodle has no concept of what's going on, so getting him to look in the right direction was taxing. After she was done, she checked with us to see if we had time to view the photos in their viewing room, or if we needed to go home for the dogs. They were both doing well, so we stayed to view our photos. Not only did she get a few beautiful pictures of our ailing Corgi, but pictures of the dogs together and one of the four of us. Everyone was looking, beautifully positioned and I will treasure these photos for years to come! Down stairs in their viewing room, we went through the photos on a big screen tv. We picked a package that gave us three of the photos we choose retouched and the digital rights for a very competitive price. My husband also ordered an Urban picture collage of our three pictures. Tourine was extremely low pressure when it came to selling additional add ons and even offered to leave the room so we could talk our choices over. Our digital prints came over retouched in three days and the photo collage we ordered should be here within a month or so. I am so happy with our family photos! Tourine did a great job and Johnstone Studios will be our new place for yearly family photos!

Rhett did an absolutely wonderful job photographing our small intimate beach wedding. I've known…read moreRhett for ten years - we attended the same college - and I had the advantage of already knowing his personality and style prior to the big day. However, the fact that I knew Rhett prior to my wedding day never altered his professionalism to ensure that our vision for the ceremony was everything we dreamed it to be. Rhett set up a meeting with us prior to the big day and made sure he had a schedule of events and a general idea of shots we wanted to get. He arrived early, and took advantage of every moment pre-ceremony. Rhett helped us stage a "first look", and then assisted in setting up our guests for the ceremony itself. After the ceremony, Rhett captured some amazing photographs of my new husband and I on the beach, and even though we didn't have the beach to ourselves, Rhett set up the shots to where it appears it was only us two there. Perhaps one of the things I was most pleased about was that Rhett emailed us a few wedding preview pictures the morning after the ceremony that my husband and I were able to immediately enjoy. They were absolutely breathtaking and gave us something we could share with family right after the big day. Our wedding photographs were edited and uploaded to our website three days after the ceremony - this is quite impressive and I've never had a photographer do that! I highly recommend Rhett for ANY photography need. I am so happy he was our wedding photographer. I would go through it all again just to have Rhett take more pictures of us (and that's saying something from a Bride!!).

This was the first time we had professional photos taken of the baby and were of course a tad apprehensive about how it all would go, especially due to the fact that he had a terrible nap day the day of the shoot (of course!). Things could not have gone smoother - Kate has 3 children herself so was just wonderful at getting him to smile and holding his attention. She was so creative with finding good spots for pictures (our shoot took place at White Point gardens and the streets surrounding them), and we found her to be warm, pleasant, and very fun to work with. We felt relaxed and comfortable the whole time - it was really an enjoyable evening! The pictures themselves are breathtaking - I teared up when I opened them, and there are a few that still make me misty whenever I look at them! I'm still having a hard time deciding between several for our Christmas card because they're all so gorgeous! She got a great balance of staged, portrait-like shots along with more relaxed, candid moments of our family. These will be treasured by us for a long, long time. We can't recommend Kate enough!!

Looking at the photos she captured throughout the weekend takes us right back to the joy and happiness because she was able to capture such real and genuine moments. Some of my absolute favorite moments were of our first look, which she captured absolutely beautifully. Kate also has the most calming personality (yet is able to wrangle large groups of family and friends!) and was a joy to have as a part of the weekend. I could not recommend Kate more for any of your photography needs! She is wonderful and we will treasure these photos for our entire life!

Moments that I didn't even know were happening and sweet moments I'd already forgotten in the rush of the day she was able to capture perfectly! She caught every moment I wanted and moments I didn't even think to capture! I don't consider myself very photogenic because I'm a short, curvy lady (you know what I mean, ladies!), but Valerie blew my mind when it came to the volume of amazing pictures... she is definitely a pro who could work with my body type to pose it in the most flattering ways and she made me feel beautiful during the whole thing... I'm proud of every single one of them!!!!! I was crying from happiness that all of them were my favorites. She kept things fun, she was early and took extra "details" pictures before we were ready. You can tell she's proud of, and a perfectionist, when it comes to her profession. She truly enjoys what she does and it shines through into her photographs. I think that she barely even ate during the reception! And talk about making things look gorgeous... every single shot looked timeless and epic. Couldn't be more pleased... her rates were even better than most vendors we've heard from other people's weddings. I would highly recommend... I'm so glad we made photography the biggest part of our budget because now we have photographic memories that will last beyond our lifetime. I'll be sure to use her for any other important events in the future!
