I went to Marais photography for my daughters first birthday (dohl) photos and can't say enough…read moreabout how amazing it was! They were so accommodating and professional throughout the entire experience. They have the most beautiful hanbok and accessory collections- there's something for everyone. The owner hand makes dresses and gorgeous accessories- everything was stunning! From purchase to rentals, everything was brand new and clean. I was VeRY impressed. I've shopped around a few korean studios for this, and Marais was the BEST! Pictures came out beautiful- this was my daughter's 5th photoshoot (with various photographers), and these were hands down the best pictures we got! We will be back for sure for future photo shoots and hanbok shopping!!!

Will update my review once I receive the photos, but so far, they've given me a five star service…read more I contracted them for my baby's dol. They communicated with me before my event and spent time with my mother-in-law showing her around their studio, patiently answering all of her questions. They also provided us with a photo table after we requested it at no charge to us. They arrived earlier than their stated time for the event and set up beautifully. They were also non-intrusive during the party and were extra patient, even though my baby hadn't slept that day and was extremely crabby. I was sooo happy with their decorations--everything was beautiful!

We hired Krysten for an engagement shoot and were very happy with our choice. She is sweet,…read morefriendly, creative, and professional, and my fiance and I both felt comfortable with her even though we'd both anticipated that the process of getting engagement pics taken would be awkward (glad we were wrong!). Krysten not only had some good ideas for poses, but loaded examples on her phone (which we especially appreciated since it was hard for us to figure out what to do with our arms, hands, etc.). She was receptive to our ideas, too. Afterward, we were surprised and delighted by her responsiveness and quick turnaround (we had some preview shots that night, and our DVD with pics from the entire shoot arrived just a week later!). Overall a good experience and a great value - I would definitely recommend Krysten for local photography services.

Manica and Jack truly created an engagement session to remember. My (now) husband and I could not…read morebe happier! These are pictures we will treasure for a lifetime. I came to Manica with a vague idea about wanting to do a themed, "60's suburban malaise," engagement session. That phrase was all I gave her and her very capable partner to go on. I knew my theme was a bit non-traditional for an engagement session. While Lot 11's blog is filled with gorgeous, traditional e-sessions, Manica and Jack rose to the themed shoot with aplomb. When we got together for the shoot itself, they had (to my utter amazement) story boarded an entire story (again, all based on a single phrase) that encapsulated my vision perfectly. They were organized, managed time well, and, most especially, understood my vision from a creative standpoint and did the best possible job executing it. Both were very fun to work with and put my husband and I (not the most comfortable in front of a camera) at ease. Upon seeing the pictures, I could not be happier! The pictures were so cinematic that I almost didn't recognize the dapper couple in the photos! The best part came when my Spanish-speaking grandmother saw the slideshow and was able to understand the entire story. Thanks so much, guys! You've made some very happy and loyal customers.

Despite having three photographers--two principals of Lot 11 Photography and an assistant--for our…read morewedding, Lot 11 Photography failed to capture vital shots. Example 1: there is a picture of the bride and groom coming out of the church to greet the waiting crowd from our backs but they missed the front shot of our smiling faces greeting the crowd. They also missed photographing a crucial moment of the wedding ceremony, and some pictures at the reception (introduction of the wedding party) were quite out of focus and the flash did not appear to have been used. Lot 11 Photography states that they shoot in a journalistic style--translation: they just shoot a bunch of pictures and hope a few turn out well. We ended up choosing Lot 11 Photography after viewing pictures of our niece they had taken. While they are good at session photography (i.e. limited scope matters like children's pictures, engagement sessions) I don't believe they yet have the competence and ability for event photography (i.e. weddings). We found both of the principals of Lot 11 Photography to be friendly and courteous just not good wedding photographers. Also, they have yet to deliver in full our engagement pictures although it has been months since they have been taken. We received our wedding pictures because we made them put a delivery date in the contract.

I used Monumental Arts for my headshots, and I am so happy I did! If you're looking for a…read morephotographer who will take your headshot seriously and ensure it reflects who YOU are, you need K Michael at Monumental Arts! What really stood out to me about Monumental Arts is that his portfolio captures the personality of the person. It's not just another head in a frame--it's telling you something about them. He was prompt, responsive, and accommodating. I felt at ease immediately when working with K Michael. First, he provided guidelines for preparing for the photo shoot day (which were very helpful). Before the shoot, he walked me through the process and gave great instructions--he wanted it to be as comfortable as possible for me! And let me tell you, the results were terrific. He gave me plenty of options and a ton of flexibility with the backgrounds and poses. It was much better than the standard one or two corporate poses. He was even accommodating with specialty edits. When I got my photos back, I could tell he had taken his time to make sure they were perfect--and they absolutely were. Monumental Arts is truly a master at his craft, and I would recommend him to anyone who wants their pictures taken by someone who knows what they're doing!

He has a great ability to adapt to your needs and is clearly very skilled at what he does. As someone who's not always comfortable in front of the camera, I felt relaxed and confident the whole time.

If I could give 10+ stars, I absolutely would. The studio owner is amazing, and this place exceeded…read moreall my expectations. This was my very 3rd time doing a photo shoot, and I'm beyond grateful that I pushed myself to do it here. There was absolutely no judgment, and she gave clear guidance and direction while also making me feel comfortable enough to freestyle and be creative. There was no rushing at all, and a lot of time and care were spent making sure we captured the right shots. You can really tell that she takes pride in her work and genuinely cares about her clients. I will definitely be coming back many times. The entire experience was so much fun, and even the unedited photos already looked amazing, so I can't even imagine how incredible the final images will be. If you're considering booking a photo shoot at this studio, just do it. You'll be in the best hands. I honestly couldn't believe I was looking at myself in these photos--I'm so proud of myself. They truly look like something straight out of a magazine.

As someone who hates to be in front of the camera, he made me feel relaxed and confident. Sam made me laugh the entire time and even played my favorite music.
