Elizabeth was incredible with the littles in our family, and we were incredibly pleased with how our photos turned out. She was so easy to communicate with. She watched the weather and had us move our day so we would have beautiful backgrounds. I can't say enough about our experience. Don't second guess booking her!

She was very skilled and the photos we got were absolutely what I was hoping for (I wanted a lot of bright photos- taking advantage of the beautiful sunset lighting- plenty of portraits and candids that captured my little guy who tends to get "serious face" in pictures) Took about 3-4 weeks to turn around, and once they did we were able to download instantly (we pre-paid for the digitals and got a free canvas). She also mailed us a Thumbdrive of the photos to keep. Looking forward to using her for future trips- we highly recommend!
