We had a phenomenal experience with Michelle today. We booked the newborn session which also…read moreincluded family photos and sibling photos. She is professional, extremely pleasant and friendly. She is SO patient. My newborn was wide awake before the shoot started and she took her time...(2 hours or more) helping me get the baby to sleep (mixture of me nursing and Michelle swaying/singing to baby). Eventually baby fell into deep sleep and we got excellent, I mean excellent pictures. For the moms out there, Michelle has everything you need. She even thought of things that I never ever ever thought she would have (for example: a boppy pillow for nursing, space heater to keep newborn warm, white noise on blast to help soothe infant !). She is so very thoughtful. Michelle is a down to earth professional and I wish we could have had this experience with our first baby. Or even for our wedding or maternity photos. We found her late, but better late than never! She did just move to the area from washington earlier this year. The price is affordable for all the detail and time she takes with her clients. I would do this again in a heartbeat. Thank you, Michelle!!

The good, the bad, and the review…read more.. We used Kevin's for our wedding in September of 2014. They are fairly expensive, but we wanted to splurge on pictures because we felt they were very important. We got a lot of great pictures, don't get me wrong. However, we got zero close up face photos and zero pictures of our hands with our rings. Overall, the pictures that were taken were great, and a few were very exceptional at the Botanic Gardens. I did have to tell the photographer, (not Kevin) that we were "for sure" doing photos from across the water (this is the reason we chose Kevin's in the first place) even though he disagreed with me about it at first after our ceremony and during our couple shoot. I'm so glad we did because these turned out to be our favorite pictures of the day. Maybe he traded any close up pictures for across the water pictures in his mind time wise? He could have been stressed about time since we were running behind schedule. I will definitely take the blame for that one, though I'm sure most weddings run slightly behind schedule. I am disappointed that I don't have close up face pictures of me and my hubby on our special day. Also, I'll I don't have a traditional picture of our hands together with rings. I was hoping for some more artistic touches and special, quiet, romantic, serious moments. There were no plays on black and white with one color in the editing or anything like that. However, the across the water pictures are absolutely EXCEPTIONAL. I have mixed emotions about this review. Both exceptional photos, yet some missed moments also. I'm sure it's nearly impossible to remember everything in a limited amount of time. A HUGE plus is that the photographer was very kind, fun and made our bridal party and family feel relaxed... Especially during the reception. As a tip for any wedding photographer, I would definitely write down the EXACT photos you want in advance so you aren't left without something that's important to you. It's something you won't think of on your special day and you rely on the photographer to call most of the shots. There is stress on the photographer as well, so some things can just be forgotten. We didn't get to meet with our specific photographer to discuss what photos we really wanted before our wedding day. I did chat with him over the phone, but I should have been more proactive about meeting with him in person. Overall, some very exceptional photos and a good experience.

Once we got the proofs back, we knew this is who we would hire for our wedding. What I really love about Kevin is how daring and creative he is. He ask my husband and I to stand on the ledge of a building for the perfect shot. As nervous as I was, I'm so happy we did it. We ended up with the most iconic wedding photo ever on top of the banquet loft building in downtown Albuquerque (photo attached). I highly recommend Kevin and his team.

Before attending my first Yelp event this year, I was already searching for a photographer to…read morecapture some glimpses of my life when I'd celebrate becoming 40 in Oct. Adam was the guy at every Yelp event I went and I watched him at work and the results of his unique perspectives of people, life, events, etc. Though cautious whom I befriend on Facebook, I didn't hesitate to send him friend request because I get to see some of his works, especially enjoyed the ones of his adorable daughter. Choosing him among 4 candidates to take my celebratory photos was not a hard decision and he did a perfect job. My friends who own the Pilates studio where the photo shooting took place said they had paid more $$ for less quality work. I am so happy to see the better than expected captures he took of me and it will be always a fond memory!

You know what I'm talking about, the ones that are too timid to get a good shot to the ones that setup their tripod in the middle of everyone's view. Adam's skills are truly a talent, he doesn't stay in one place trying to setup the right angle and get soooo artsy that he misses the great moments that are happening around him, he finds the best of both worlds. Let's face it, some people are naturally photogenic and well... Some might have a face for radio. Adam has the ability to capture people as if they were posed. The shots are in the moment but look as if the person was staged, so the ugly cry face or weird angles aren't something you have to be worried about seeing on Yelp. Mr Perfect Personality! He's fun and energetic, it makes you want to take snap some shots of him, which I've done at every event that he's been at. However, he wants to capture people doing what they're doing, not yelling at them to look at him. If I could redo my wedding I would have hired him. We can t go back in time, so make sure you keep him in mind for your future events, I know I will!

During the initial consultation, Paulina presented her service sheet for her work and thoroughly…read moreexplained both the prices and her process. She explained what my photo session would 'feel' like from her side as the photographer and also asked for my input as to what I wanted to get out of the photoshoot. Her whole approach felt like a collaboration of two artist friends with ideas and desires working toward a single vision of beauty. The way she designs a photoshoot is a way for you to tell your story but it also allows for you to see where that story might go. The photos that Paulina captured from my photoshoot more than blew me away. I had a photoshoot with my daughter and it was so astonishing to see, now as an 'outsider,' how my daughter looked at me. I was in tears of happiness with what I saw. The quality of her portraits are so rich and so warm with a subtle stylish polish of class that the images you take home with you will be admired by all who see them. I highly recommend Paulina to capture those moments you want to cherish forever. The moments that truly mean something and demonstrate love. Love for another person, a pet, or a profession you've honed for years. She will capture your story with the same love and attention.
