What can I say...Hughens Photography was recommended to me, and when I saw what she did with photos…read moreI was absolutely speechless. Her angles and shots are above all the rest I've seen. She has captured different stages in my life and has taken many photos I will cherish for the rest of my life. A couple of things... 1. Although she is high on price, that's a good thing. I've had bad experiences with cheap photographers in the past. Many people today think they are photographers because they own a digital camera. Do research. If someone is cheap, look at how higher priced photographers photos look. Then ask yourself, why they are so inexpensive. Something is up. 2. Within 24-48 hours she will have your proofs ready to look at unless she's swamped. Even then it's still fast. 3. She's an awesome person. Pamela is very talented. If you look through her portfolio you will find that she has an artistic eye with very high quality of photos. She is very professional and has a very fast response time to any questions you may have. She's flexible, and prompt with communications. I HIGHLY recommend her.

STAY FAR AWAY FROM THIS PLACE!! Honestly I wanted to write a good review but this was absolutely a…read morehorrible experience and the owner, Saskia, has horrible customer service, unethical, and overall it seems that her only agenda is to make the most from you there! I left the studio in tears and want to give everyone a forewarning before you decide to book with her. I reached out to this studio earlier this year to book my session for my first borns newborn photos. Her work looked great and I wanted something special for our first child. Her prices upfront were crazy! I know photography is expensive however I know in other places you can find things a lot cheaper. Unfortunately out in VA and North Carolina, which is where I live, the prices are steep compared to other places I've lived. There aren't many out here so I think that's why they're able to up the prices. Dreamy baby did have some cool sets for pictures and ultimately that why I went with her. So I guess in December 2024 there was a promotion where you pay $500 for a $600 gift card...basically $100 off your session. I contacted her after December and she said that deal is over but if you book right now I'll let you use it. I said perfect do you usually have other sales? My son wasn't due till early April so I was willing to wait for a special since it is A LOT of money. She said this was the only sale they do. So I jumped on it and booked. LITERALLY a week later she comes out with an email that has another special for booking. I did the calculations and it came out to be $90 cheaper than what I was going to pay. This should have been my red flag to find someone else. I'll include the text messages but basically I just felt she was super shady. I also saw she had an all digital package and when asked about that she said that she no longer did it and will be taking it down from her website...but it's still up there. So then comes the day where my son was born, I texted her the following day to let her know he was here and to schedule us. She booked us for almost 2 weeks later and we were set! Our session was for a Thursday, the 24th and the Friday before, the 18th, I reached out to let her know what props/backgrounds we wanted. I never heard a response back to confirm anything. Then the day before our session, 23rd, I reached out again because now I have no clue if we're good to go or not because I hadn't heard anything from her! I asked what we needed to bring and this lady tells me then that she had a price increase to the packages. On MONDAY...a few days before my appointment...is when she tells me there is a price increase. Not when I reached out to her that our son was born, not the Friday before to confirm, and not the day the actual prices increased. NOPE! She texts the DAY BEFORE OUR PHOTOSHOOT that there is a $200 price increase! I was livid! Again I booked with her, paid the studio session fee to save a slot, back in January! And I reached out to book before this price increase. You're telling me that if she would have seen us a little earlier I wouldn't have been slapped in the face with this extra $200!? I just felt this owner/company has no morals or integrity. My son had already been born, it's not like I could book with another photographer because most of them ask to book in the third trimester at the latest so that they could get them in for pictures before 2 weeks of age. Upon showing up to our appointment my husband asked about this price increase and seeing if she will honor the price that was originally what it had been for 4 months since we booked it but continently increased 3 days before we showed up. She said no and basically I had to sit in that appointment trying to be friendly to this woman. I left there in tears spending around $1500. Because other hidden fees included shipping of the pictures and of course almost $90 worth of taxes. I left crying and am praying that over the years I don't look at the photos of my son and remember this person. So I highly recommend taking your business elsewhere.

Mr. Woolsey shot our wedding a few months ago and did an amazing job! He not only captured our day…read morewith all the must have shots but also captured the emotion from everyone in attendance with his photography. There are things that my husband and I didn't even get to see that day just because we were so busy and it went by so fast but Nick was able to capture all the little details and then some for us! We had a blast looking through the literally HUNDREDS of pictures he took for us! Our special day was very important to him and he made that known from day one, I never felt as if we were just another couple getting married to him because of the time and care he put into our day. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for not only a wedding photographer but for a photographer to capture any special moment in your life.

First off, let me say that this review does not deserve any stars. It's a requirement of Yelp.com…read morethat I give at least one star. With that said, my fiancee and I had an engagment session, at 4pm, with Mr. Woolsey that was scheduled one week in advance. 30 min prior to our scheduled session, Mr. Woolsey called to say that he left all of his camera equipment at a birthday party earlier that day and thought he had a spare camera in his car. He then went on to say, that he had to be home at 6pm to watch his children because he promised his wife a "girls' night". He stated that by the time he drove back to get his equipment and come back, to the session site, he wouldn't have enough time to do the shoot. Needless to say, this excuse was unacceptable and I did not want to risk the same thing happening on my wedding day. I informed Mr. Woolsey that in his contract it states that if he, if for any reason, was unavailable for an event/session, he would appoint a photographer in his place. Mr. Woolsey, made no effort to ensure his end of the bargain and did not appoint anyone to take the pictures. I immediately cancelled his services because of his breach in contract and requested a refund of my deposit... I still have not heard from him.

The first reason why she is the most amazing ever is she's super creative and accommodating. I had an idea for a baseball picture that I told her during our consultation and without missing a beat she told me her idea, ordered the outfit, and it came out better than I could have ever imagined. Secondly, she has newborn photography down to a science. She gave us a checklist to follow to ensure our little one fell asleep and stayed asleep for his session. She knows exactly how to keep you baby happy, sleepy, and most importantly safe. Besides such an amazing professional, the pictures are absolutely stunning. I cried just looking at them. MJ prints them all and sets them up for you to decide. I can't wait to have our little guy get his pictures taken again!!

This was my first time stepping foot in front of a camera which in itself can be nerve racking. I was given step by step posing instructions seeing I was new to it all and really was clueless. Ross and Jess are professional in every aspect of the business they run, I was respected, comfortable, and had an absolute blast. Again I highly recommend this business for ANY photography needs, the communication and consult went smooth and the outcome was unmatched! Thank you again Ross and Jess

My husband, who isn't into 'wedding stuff' as much as me,even said "Wow! I had no idea, these are beautiful." My oldest brother who is definitely a harsh critic said, "my wedding pictures were the best pictures he's ever seen." I honestly believe the two most important things on your wedding day should be the person you choose to marry and the pictures. Ross and Jess exceeded any of my expectations. If you choose to go with them you will not be sorry. They are so comfortable to work with on a day that is so racked with nerves, you feel like your friends are taking your pictures. A few adjectives that were used by my family and friends so far have been: stunning, gorgeous, awesome and ethereal. I will be forever grateful for the work, time, and energy that Ross and Jess put into my pictures.
