I stalled for months, even though I needed a professional photo to use on my social media.

The photo shoot was actually very enjoyable - I loved Sarah's suggestions and her feedback, and I trusted her professional opinion. I gave her the three things that I wanted the photos to show, and she delivered! I have gotten so many compliments on my photos! She made the process extremely comfortable, and I think Sarah's photos truly captured me!

We sort of stumbled on Sarah at Desired Focus. A wedding photographer is a hugely important part of…read morethe planning stages; their job is to capture all the moments on one of the most emotional days of your life. We wanted someone who could not only capture the moment but also our personalities. We were fairly intimidated when we started shopping around. My husband has been studying photography for awhile and had some very specific ideas about his wants and don't wants. We both agreed that we wanted a photographer who would get as much right in-camera and have a subtle touch with the post-processing work. Since we were going for a pretty non-traditional wedding, we also needed someone who would "get" it... or, at least, be game for it. We lucked out with Sarah across the board. Pretty much from the moment we met her at a consult, we were sold. Not only does she have extremely solid photographic and post-processing skills, she is exceptionally nice and out-going. We had a blast at an engagement shoot in Granville. She had great ideas and was open to suggests of location/pose/etc... A couple weeks after the shoot, Sarah came by and we went through the shoot to pick out shots to enhance. Then a couple weeks later (due to technical issues), we got the results and they were fantastic! At this point, we knew we'd chosen the right person to photograph our wedding. About a month before the ceremony, we went over a shot list (our requested photographs) and asked that Sarah take as many candids as she wanted. We also gave her a warning; the event location (16-Bit bar & arcade) is quite dark and that could be an issue. On our event day, Sarah arrived promptly and went to work right away. She took mostly candid shots with a few posed shots mixed in. She blended in with the crowd so that you didn't know that she was there most of the time.. but she also mingled freely and looked like she was having as much fun as the rest of us! This past weekend we were able to get a look at the pictures. And they are amazing! They are so good that we aren't having any of them enhanced. Typically, I hate the way I photograph but she got some shots of me where I look fantastic. We are thrilled with the photographs that Sarah took. I would highly recommend her for wedding, event or portrait photography. She also teaches some photography classes every so often. Her Facebook page is more frequently updated than her website so check for her there.

You never even realized he was taking any photos as his camera didn't make the annoying click sound and he could get that truly candid photo. We already got a sneak peak of some of the photos and they truly are amazing!

My biggest fear was that my pictures wouldn't be to my liking; the photos that i would be showing family, friends, and my children for years and years. Sara and Tony are a great team. They make you feel comfortable, they are open to feedback, and they do whatever they can (from whatever angle or position) to truly capture your most precious moments. I have no regrets - I love my wedding photos and i will continue to use them for any photography needs in the future and I'll recommend their services to anyone needing a professional, affordable, QUALITY photographer.

I went to a bridal expo and spun a wheel and was signed up for a Noir photoshoot after receiving a…read morecoupon. For some reason I had to go ahead and book it that day. About a week later, I called to reschedule it for as late as possible. Honestly, in February when I booked it, I still had my winter holiday weight and would have preferred to have done a Noir photo shoot in the summer. When I called, I was only allowed to push it out two weeks. I mean not a huge issue but also not ideal. If I'm going to take photos of myself in lingerie I'd prefer to look my absolute best. This was also a gift for my fiancé so again, I would prefer to look my best. Throughout the weeks leading up to the shoot, you will receive reminders and emails on what to expect and tips on what to pack and wear. This was helpful. The day of the photoshoot, I arrive and was offered a mimosa or water while you get ready in hair and makeup. That all went fine, and everyone was nice. Once ready, the photographer came in and helped me select a couple of outfit options. We ended up choosing four outfits. The photoshoot itself was very easy and the photographer clearly knows what she was doing because she posed me perfectly in flattering poses. The rooms/sets were also nice and professional, and the lighting was fantastic. The whole actual experience was very professional and pleasant. At the end, they tell you you have to come back within two weeks to be eligible for their discount pricing. I was going to be out of the country for a week and then when I came back, i obviously had to go back to work. I had to fit the photo review appointment in somehow. After the appointment is scheduled, THEN and only THEN do you learn about the pricing. I will actually attach below. Honestly, it was shocking. I can understand the prices for an entire book and the really nice large prints but for digital photos, I was flabbergasted. I honestly think it's shady business practice to not post the prices up front. Clearly, you are trying to hide something. I went to the appointment to review the photos. They had me in a private room with a slideshow on a big screen with music playing. You get to see all your pics and then go two by two to select which ones you like. You can keep narrowing it down until you get to your favorites. That process was perfectly fine and easy but again you have to decide right then and there. I decided on digitals because of cost. I only ended up getting five because it was just so expensive. I would have got more photos had it been more reasonable. I'm the type of person that likes to think things over and being forced to make a decision in the moment especially to drop a large sum of money is stressful to me. Pros: Professional, lots of tips beforehand, beautiful sets, great lighting, good camera, and nice hair and makeup. Cons: No upfront pricing and very expensive!! I didn't like being forced to complete the shoot months before I really wanted to. I didn't like being forced to make a decision quickly without time to really think about it. Overall, I would say people need to know what it costs and then it will be a better experience. Finding out how expensive it was at the end took the fun away from the experience and leaves you feeling scammed. Honestly, I could buy some lighting off amazon and have a girlfriend take some pics. I may still do that so i can actually create a full album for my fiance since five pics aren't going to do much.
