I have been a fan of Lauren's work for a long time. Lauren was my first choice to shoot my wedding,…read moreand I'm so glad I went with my gut and hired her. There is so much more to wedding photography than shooting and editing. Lauren is quite good at both of those things, but her star attribute is her confidence and ability to direct, frame, capture and highlight. My wife and I do not find ourselves to be photogenic people, but Lauren made us feel like rockstars. She is a true creative who puts passion into all of her photography projects. During the planning process, Lauren was extremely proactive in getting to know us and our families. We had a lengthy FaceTime chat, corresponded via email, and filled out an in-depth survey about ourselves, the wedding, the people in it, and all of the important shots/portraits we wanted. She came to our rehearsal the night before to meet everyone, and she and I went to the venue morning of to scout locations. She has such an attention to detail, and works hard for the client to make sure everything is perfect. When it comes to the most important moments and events in your life, hire a true professional. Lauren is just that, and we can't begin to express how much we enjoyed working with her. Thanks, Lauren!

As a wanna-be photographer, I am very picky about who I let shoot for my events. Sometimes its not…read morejust about the right angle or color (although she gets that right all of the time), its also about catching emotion and depth. Lauren catches those perfect moments every time. From wedding photos to birthday photography, she can basically do it all. She came highly recommended from a friend who just did a birthday shoot with her, and after looking at the portfolio, It was clear she was the right choice. My photos came out perfectly, and that's even with my pterodactyl shaped face. Definitely first choice when I'm on the East Coast. Will have her do more work for me soon. Thanks Lauren!

Your spirit is so warm and inviting, making everyone feel genuinely welcomed and respected. I know that standing in front of a camera can be challenging, especially when insecurities surface. Your clients must leave feeling seen, valued, and beautiful, with a newfound sense of confidence and love. You have a remarkable gift for healing through your work. Thank you for the kindness you share and for the positive impact you create. May God's blessings continue to shine upon you, your gifts, and your family. i schedule some shoot for myself at least annually as a way to express self-love! With gratitude, Angela

Suzanne is an incredibly talented photographer and I am so grateful I got to shoot with her. Her home studio is stunning and very clean. I did a budoir photoshoot with her and the entire experience was amazing. You start with a full makeover and hairdo by a professional MUA to make you look and feel beautiful. During the photoshoot Suzanne was my personal hype woman, making me feel so confident and sexy. Suzanne is an experienced professional and is naturally gifted in sharing confidence. The entire experience was amazing and I will have great memories of it. When I came back to pick up my album I was blown away at the results. The quality of these albums is next level. I highly recommend booking a photoshoot with Suzanne!

I was barely talking when I got there and within two poses Suzanne made me so comfortable that I found we were laughing for much of the shoot and talking. Then when I got to go back soon after to see my pictures I kept covering my mouth with my hand because they were stunning and she was so great to talk to. I could not recommend her more and the space she works out of is absolutely stunning!

I had always noticed the photos she took which adorned the walls of her office at Paramount where she and I had worked together. When she decided to leave her job as an executive at Paramount and pursue photography as her means of livelihood, I had no doubt that she would be a success at that as well as in the entertainment industry. I hired her to shoot my wedding in 1998 and the photos turned out fabulously. If you know me well, you'd know that I almost never like photos of myself :-O and I am a perfectionist. Well, I was extremely happy with the results. Laurie's style of documentary shooting is just stunning in her ability to capture a moment, a thought, and an essence in a single photo. She truly loves her work and it shows in the way she interacts with people whether from behind the camera or on the street. I recommend Laurie's work wholeheartedly! The funniest thing is that the folks who hire Laurie to shoot their weddings, end up hiring her again to shoot their babies photos in a year or two following the wedding! --Judy

My friend and I came to Julie Saad's studio for girls' day out/glamour portraits. Prior to the…read moresession, we were both able to Skype with Julie and show her some clothes we were considering for the photos. We got to talk about out concepts and what feeling we wanted for the images. Julie helped me to choose pieces that would photograph well from what was already in my closet. Before, during, and after the session, Julie was fast and responsive any time I needed to reach her by email or phone. When we arrived for our session, we had a wonderful hair and makeup session with Amy Klewitz! She was fantastic!! Both Amy and Julie were so warm and friendly, there was no time to feel nervous - I felt completely at ease! We also laughed a lot, making for a super fun day! Julie's studio is small but bathed in sunlight! Julie has a variety of fabrics and backdrops to complement any look or feel (light and airy, dark and dramatic, fun and playful, etc.). We were able to take pictures in a variety of outfits with different backgrounds in just a few hours. We got to take pictures individually, as well as together. Our pictures were ready for us really soon after. Julie set up an appointment where we could view the images -- not on a computer screen, but beautifully matted and ready to display! It was a magical experience getting to see them this way. The pictures came out amazingly, and this made it very hard to choose the final ones! However, Julie didn't rush us and allowed us to really take our time. When the final decision was made, we received our pictures in the mats and in beautiful keepsake archival boxes. They were wrapped and presented wonderfully, and included flash drives of the digital images. I have given some of the pictures away as gifts and I've gotten so many complements on them! I am so happy I got to have this experience with my friend and that Julie made this such a great day for us both! We will never forget it and we have the wonderful photos to forever enjoy! WEIRD SIDE NOTE: After I shared some of Julie's photos of me on social media, Julie noticed some fraudulent Twitter accounts using the images and she alerted me right away. I truly appreciate her looking out for her clients and ensuring the pictures weren't being misused.
