I searched high and low for someone who could take heirloom portraits for my little one. I…read morecontacted 3 photographers and Cristal was the only one that contacted me immediately through text. Heirloom portraits are more of a southern thing so I sent her inspiration pictures for reference. She said she could do it so I ended up booking her for a session. She had tons of props and outfits to choose from. We decided to go the simpler route and opted for no props with a simple white background. The session ended up being 15 minutes (she said she got THE shot). After about a week, Cristal sent me a soft proof gallery with about 75 photos to choose from. I picked my 12 and texted her feedback on the ones I wanted more/less cropped. She also nailed the vignette on the heirloom portraits; it was exactly what I was looking for! She sent me a second gallery with my 12 picks, also including them in B&W and different editing styles (34 total). Cristal had great communication, and will go above and beyond to make sure you love your pictures! I would highly recommend her if you live in the IE area. One tiny note, 4 photos have a faint line at the top. It looks like the editing filter wasn't taken all the way up. With that being said, not the end of the world and would gladly book her again.

Due to this, he was embarrassed for months and didn't like his pictures. Thankfully the wound healed, but the school picture had already been taken by the time the wound existed. I contacted Lauren Studios and spoke with Alejandra that was so nice to tell us that she will ask her editor, Liz if she can edit those blemished out from his picture. Long story short, they emailed us back and told us they already sent the edited pictures to our home address without any additional charges. I can't thank them enough. Thank you so much for everything! We truly appreciate you guys

Lauren Studios is a rip-off!…read more I am a UC Berkeley student. The studio states in its emails that the fee ranges from $15 to $35, but that only covers the photo-taking service--and the service itself was poor. The photographer arrived late and then shifted the blame to UC Berkeley staff for not opening the door on time. The most frustrating part is that I cannot receive a copy of the photos unless I pay an additional exorbitant fee. A reputable business would clearly explain its pricing upfront. This studio, however, avoids providing adequate information to students and charges them in a misleading manner.

Summer is kind, patient, professional, and extremely talented. From the minute I submitted an inquiry to the very last step of selecting the desired photos, she was helpful and organized.

It can always be nerve wracking especially if this is not something you're used to but I genuinely always felt relaxed with her. I'm eager to book other shoots with her in the future. Thank you Summer. You made me feel so beautiful. These are truly the best photos anyone has ever taken of me.

I honestly feel so disappointed after my experience today. Summer was very inconsiderate, rude to…read moreme and honestly very cash grabbing. I will explain. As a first-time mom, I was really excited to get my 11-month-old baby's first Easter photos taken, she advertised on Instagram that her photos would be a better alternative to mall photos. More thoughtful, higher quality, and a better overall experience for a similar price. Unfortunately, that was not the case at all. When we arrived, I was holding my son and trying to ease him into the situation so he would feel comfortable sitting with the Easter Bunny. Without warning, Summer suddenly grabbed him out of my arms and said, "Here, let me just grab him," and immediately placed him on the bunny's lap. This clearly startled him, and he began crying. While I understand that some children may be scared in situations like this, abruptly taking him from me made it much worse. I believe children should be given time to warm up, especially at this age. She then quickly took only two photos while he was crying and said, "Okay, that's it. No more. He's just going to keep crying." The session was essentially over within 20 seconds, and I was left feeling uncomfortable, rushed and dismissed. I paid $45 for this, and the entire experience felt very unprofessional and transactional. As a parent, you want someone who respects boundaries, especially not grabbing your child without permission!! and who actually cares about creating a meaningful experience for a milestone like a first holiday photo. We drove 45 minutes for this session, and it was incredibly disappointing. I would not recommend booking, especially for walk-in photo sessions. Parents deserve a more patient, respectful, and thoughtful approach especially when it comes to their children. I only wish I had told her I wasn't going to pay for the horrible service. Unfortunately, I do respect a business owners time. Even though she did not put in any time or effort and it is not like there was a need to rush it too. There was no one in the lobby waiting after us.
