I'm so glad I found Liz Wade Photography! Liz recently did my son's senior pictures and they turned…read moreout so great! Not only are the pictures lovely, but Liz is wonderful to work with! It's easy to schedule and pay, the pricing is clearcut so you know exactly what you are paying for, and she is great with communication throughout the process. My son is kind of shy, but she was able to put him at ease and get some great shots. I am so pleased with the quality of the photos and the experience we had with Liz. I wholeheartedly recommend her for your family or senior pictures!

After choosing Aeden from Groupon, I messaged Melissa on Instagram to see about scheduling. She was…read moreincredibly helpful, and I feel so lucky that Melissa nailed the feeling I wanted for our photos. Her assistant Kelsie was so sweet and their chemistry made it easy to chat with them and feel at ease the entire time. They were very accomodating of my mom who walked slower as well. Not only was Melissa able to accomodate our super limited availability due to having a guest in town, but she also caught that our humor isn't the goofy jumping in the air type. We have a far more intimate type of humor in our family and she drew it out beautifully. I now have a collection of photos with both my husband and mother that I could have never pulled off with just a camera on a tripod. Melissa had the timeline and locations down pat, and even though our group was a few minutes late, she was a breeze and ended up with over 200 images for my husband and me to review. Naturally I wasn't fully aware of the way pro photos are priced, but after doing more research on Groupon for a boudoir style shoot, I realized that of course the copyright is where the photographer's bread and butter is. That made far more sense than her being able to make money off $45 groupons. She was very transparent, and asked us to review her site at the end of the photoshoot, as well as spoke about the proofing during the shoot. Melissa is very friendly and frankly honest about where your value is for your photos. Since she helps you create your vision in the photos, you already have a lot to choose from that are spot on. She has a lot of experience assisting in you pare down when you're not sure, and that leaves you with a far more manageable number of photos to look through that you genuinely want to own the license to. I originally got from 200 to mid 40s and thankfully, she helped me narrow down again. Each of them were fantastic, and there were no closed eyes or awkward faces. I ended up with 24 when we were narrowing down, and would have had a truly difficult time had it not been for her fantastic technique of comparisons. She was able to assist us in choosing the images we felt were the best value and the most "Marie Kondo", if you will. We just couldn't live without them. Thank you, Melissa!

My son is a rainbow blur. I have so many photos of him and me smiling at each other and hanging…read morearound our favorite places. I adore these photos, but as his third birthday approached, my heart was searching for something different. He's not a "sit and smile" kinda boy. He's wild and colorful.. a rainbow that injects creativity into my life. His personality is hard to put into words, but I can SEE it, and I wanted someone to capture *that*. Kelly was the photographer who captured his rainbow blur. Before she arrived, she already had a vision in her head.. a couple of times, I heard her talking through the ideas she had thoughtfully written down. I'm curious as to when those ideas entered her mind.. I dunno! But that's the beauty.. she's clearly inspired by her own lens and life, and she injects that perspective into her fine art photo sessions. She has a plan and a vision, and you just know you're in the hand of an artist. During the session, my son would not sit still. But that's ok, there wasn't any pressure for him to do so. I felt beautiful throughout, even as my body jumped back and forth from strength to defeat as Bruno ran wild.. and despite the intermittent chaos, Kelly took the time to gently guide me into random patches of light that looked simply ethereal in the final edits. Without knowing it, she captured a photo that contained a photo of my late father in the background.. so he was there, and perhaps he was in the light, too? I dunno, but the photos represent more than a happy morning with my son.. they encompass our dance and our blurs and the push-and-pull of our hearts and bodies moving together. They are art. Always an honor to have Kelly and her cameras into our home, and I would recommend her for anyone wanting photos that will live for centuries in albums and prints.. photos that will be traced by the hands of your kids and grandkids.. photos that will help us better understand love and light. Thank you, Kelly!

Technology Association of Oregon used Jason DeSomer to photograph two events in 2016 - Oregon…read moreTechnology Awards in May and Party in the Pinot in July. We were blown away by his shots. His images capture the spirit of our events and eliminate the contrived photos that are typical of awards ceremonies and outdoor events. He is extremely professional, and non-intrusive while interacting with guests. He captures the moment at our events in so many different ways we can't quite figure out how he got from here to there in that amount of time - but its impressive. And he provides our photos quickly so we can send them out to our community in a timely manner. In 2017 we booked early to lock down those two events, and two more our Kickoff Party in January and Kickball Tournament in August. When planning events you are always looking for great vendors who, in addition to providing stellar service, make your life easier the day of the big event. Jason DeSomer does this, and I can't recommend his services enough.

Jason was everything I was looking for in a photographer, and more!…read more I was searching for a photographer online and Jason's work stood out to me because he has an eye for great camera angles and subject placement, and his photos were very crisp and clear with great lighting and editing (something I found lacking in many others' portfolios). When I emailed him, his quotes were clear and reasonable, and he outlined everything in detail. I was modeling some outfits for a photo shoot in my house. Thankfully, Jason had a lot of great ideas for posing and I already knew the photos would turn out amazing! (I've done shoots with other photographers where I was given no direction and most of the photos came out awkward or meh). I was very happy with the shoot and the photos I received. I would definitely work with Jason again, and recommend him to anyone needing quality photos!

At our first meeting, he was enthusiastic, organized, and asked all kinds of questions to better understand our vision. The day of the ceremony, he helped us add structure to our pre-ceremony process by nailing down clear portrait timelines for each of us. He has an upbeat and easy-going attitude, which helped both of us feel comfortable while posing for portraits. And further, he clearly has a great eye and improvises well, because he was able to incorporate what might have otherwise looked like a mundane neighborhood setting into beautifully lit, unique photos. Kyle took all kinds of creative, moment-catching candid shots during our ceremony and reception that we couldn't be happier with. When we showed our wedding photos to friends and family afterwards, they consistently expressed surprise and delight at how Kyle was able to capture so many nuanced moments without being intrusive. TL;DR: We love all of our wedding photos and are so grateful to Kyle for sharing his talents with us! If you're looking for someone who is detail-oriented and ready to celebrate with you, we highly recommend Kyle!
