Both Pauleen and Myro are incredibly talented and professional photographers. Pauleen helped make us feel entirely at ease in front of the camera with her directions and constantly hyping us up. On our wedding day, she knew all the best photo spots at our venue and was able to get us a wide variety of photos for our couple's portraits. Myro did a fantastic job getting photos of all our guests during the cocktail hour. We had several guests compliment how friendly he was and how many people he captured. In the background leading up to our wedding day, the True Photography team helped put a photography timeline that aligned with our wedding coordinator's timeline. This helped ensure we got all the photos needed included first looks, couple's portraits, family portraits, etc. No special moment was missed by the team throughout the wedding. From first looks to dancing at the end of the night, we the full story of our wedding day captured!

All I can say is "WOW"…read more.. First and foremost, David was on time and very professional, I immediately felt comfortable. I began to see the quality in his work during his setup; he sat on the ground and starred at the room for a few minutes. I didn't realize what he was doing until later - that he was taking his time looking for the best angles and space to take shoot from. He took his time with each and every room and knew exactly what to highlight. I had taken some pictures before with my pricey cannon and still couldn't reach the colors that were true to light. He did just that! When I looked at the photos, I felt soothed and the expensive paint color I had chosen just beamed through! So why does this matter? Because if you're selling real estate or renting your property- you get the first 30 seconds to show what you got. You want the customer to feel as if they are witnessing the place on their own and come visit. I will be using him for family photography as well.... I know the type of quality work I will receive.

As with many other engaged couples, the pandemic had thrown a small wrench in our plans of a…read moretraditional wedding with a reception. Only the *tiniest* bit bummed, we decided to still get married and scheduled our civil ceremony. But now, I want a photographer to document this event... I think I found Emily on Instagram, after looking around at different photographers' work. I remember really liking Emily's style, how natural everyone looked, and how well Emily captured the moments. I think those were/are the most important things for me for choosing a photog, and it helped that Emily has (solid) reviews for me to go through as well. Emily was prompt in responding via email, and offered to chat on the phone to discuss the details and what I wanted. After talking for a bit, I sent over a deposit and we were set! Or not... because a week or two before our shoot, I looked at my civil ceremony appointment time and it was actually for 8am, NOT 8:30am. Yikes! I text Emily, nervous that she wouldn't be able to make the earlier time, and I would need to scramble for another photographer, but thankfully, Emily is flexible and okay with the earlier time. Phew! I also wasn't quite sure *what* I wanted from the photos (POSES? props!? specific backgrounds?!) but found some pictures I liked and sent them to Emily a day or two before our appointment, so she had an idea what I was going for. I appreciate Emily's responsiveness! The actual civil ceremony felt a little hectic; we did not know what it would entail -- paperwork, of course, and then waiting because there were other couples that were getting married that day. Thankfully, Emily was very patient. Emily is personable, friendly, and professional. She is very easy to work with, and helped the husband (!!) and I feel comfortable. Nothing felt forced, and I think she did a great job of eliciting and capturing our authentic moments. We are super pleased with the pictures and I can't stop looking at them! Lol. I would *definitely* solicit Emily's services again. Maybe for one of her fun mini shoots down the line. What a cute, low pressure and creative way to get some quality photos! Reception/after party TBA in December 2021! Or 2022, depending on how things shake out ;)

Very disappointing to hear he was going back on what we had agreed. If you are going to purchase photos in this studio please make sure you get an invoice with the agreed purchase amount.

We were not pleased with the photography company our son's school selected for senior portraits;…read morethe photo quality was disappointing, they did not offer digital photos, nor were they available for retakes before the yearbook deadline. I contacted MG Portraits on a Sunday and they responded as soon as they opened on Monday morning. Carlos was very empathetic and fit us in that same day during what I'm sure is a hectic production week right before the holidays. Carlos was very professional and the quality of the photos was exceptional. The whole process was very efficient; from check-in/ setup to proofing and ordering, we spent about 90 minutes. We received our digital prints on the spot with time to spare before the yearbook deadline. Further, they offer a variety of packages, including digital prints, with competitive, fair pricing. I highly recommend MG Portraits and would use them again; we will be recommending them to our son's high school for future classes.

Most importantly, she was very caring and made sure I felt safe navigating the beach area. We absolutely love the final photos and the editing style.

She immediately responded to my email and followed up with a call to introduce herself and ask questions about my family and ask what exactly I was looking for. I knew I needed someone with a great personality, friendly, caring, and passionate about their photos. Leyna is exactly that! She made us feel so comfortable, as if we had met before, had my boys laughing and talking all while capturing these amazing shots. She is great with figuring out location, poses, edits and etc. Few months later she did my sons first year photos. I love her and her work. She will be our photographer for many years to come.

After reviewing her website and chatting with her on the phone she was hired for the job! Leading up to the party her communication skills were excellent, she even sent me a text the day of the party to confirm what time she would be there. She showed up early and was ready to shoot! She brought a mask but I told her we were comfortable with her not wearing it, she was prepared either way which is lovely in these "Covid times". She captured the essence of the party and let everyone relax and keep their phones away. As the host of the party I could relax and enjoy time with all of the guests instead of worrying about getting group shots. I must admit I live for a good candid photo and she got so many great ones of friends and family in our backyard, I'll cherish those photos for the rest of my life. She captured the epic cake smash and lots of other moments from the party. She did such a great job engaging with our son and the other kids to get their attention at the camera. I was shocked when less than 24 hours after the event on the Fourth of July weekend she sent me the link to the photos! She is a wonderful photographer and really made everyone feel at ease while taking photos. Like I said we came to find her just through the internet but we will be using her again and again!
