Our little one coming to term during a global pandemic presented us with challenges that we never…read morecould have planned for. So many of the typical interactions that we had taken for granted and which we thought would come with pregnancy and childbirth were off the table. The presence of family and friends whom we expected to be with us during the process was out of the question due to safety concerns for us and them. One of the things that remained important to us was to document the occasion with a newborn shoot. My wife and I couldn't be happier with our Peanut Love experience. We have been extremely conscientious about safety during quarantine, so inviting a stranger into our home was not taken lightly. Irma came masked, equipped with an array of props and wardrobe. Her first order of business after unloading and setting up was washing her hands. She continued to use hand sanitizer after every wardrobe and set up change. We appreciated her fastidiousness and felt incredibly comfortable in her hands. Irma is a great listener and communicator, which was evident in all our interactions. She was extraordinarily accommodating during the photo selection and editing process (my wife is very particular) as well as working out our final selections. She offers several packages and a la carte options that made it easy for us to get everything we were looking for. She has a great eye and the pictures are phenomenal!

I was so nervous, as it was my first time really out with my newborn... Sara made the whole experience a breeze. I loved sitting back and watching her in her element. Sara received any feedback/requests we had, and executed everything perfectly. Once I received the pictures, I began to tear up. Sara captured such a memorable time in our lives, and I am so grateful!

This last time, in May 2025 it was slightly more difficult because my toddler was also in the photos. They exceeded my expectations! She is worth every penny! Her and her assistant go above and beyond to make sure you get every shot you want! They have so many outfits, wraps, headbands and props to choose from that you don't have to worry about bringing anything for your newborn. You are in the best hands with Sara!

I had a great experience working with Lily. This was my first time ever getting professional…read moreheadshots done and I'm definitely not someone who is comfortable in front of a camera. Lily has a calm, easygoing way about her that made it feel much more relaxed than I expected. She guided me without over-directing, kept things moving efficiently, and somehow managed to get a bunch of shots I actually really like (which is saying something). The session itself was quick, but I never felt rushed. She gave me plenty of great options to choose from. I also got the final photos back about a week later, which was a nice, quick turnaround. Lily is warm, professional, and clearly knows exactly what she's doing. I would absolutely recommend Lily Dong Photography to anyone who needs quality photos, especially if you're a little camera-shy like me.

But she was so patient, kind, and funny. Her prompts and suggestions were spot on. I see myself in an entirely different light now because of her. BOOK HER! Your only problem will be deciding which ones to get and how many!

We booked a special mini session with Alecia and I can't recommend her enough! I had a little…read moretrouble booking through her website, but she quickly responded and helped me troubleshoot. When the last spot was taken, she messaged me directly to let me know she opened up more times. We met her at a little park where she was set up and ready to go as she had back-to-back mini-sessions. Despite it being a mini session (just 15 minutes I think?); we never felt rushed. I'm not sure how she accomplished that! She must be a wizard! During the shoot, I felt confident she got some great shots. She had a blanket set up on the grass for our 6-month-old upon arrival. 6-month-olds are tricky since our baby couldn't sit on her own, and she also refused to lay on her back. Alecia was clever with her poses and had my baby girl and our 5-year-old son lay on their tummies. We moved to several locations in the park including a cute wooden footbridge. We got a very cute shot with her laying her head on his shoulder! Alecia was so sweet and had great energy during the shoot! We really enjoyed her personality and vibe! We felt so comfortable which is so important when you're doing a photoshoot. Although we didn't do a full family shoot, we just did our two children, she really made us feel at ease! I wouldn't hesitate to book with her again! We loved the photos and I'm grateful we were able to catch our kiddos at this moment in time: my son's 5th birthday and our daughter at 6 months. Children grow so quickly and I truly treasure having these photos. If you're looking for a sweet photographer who can get your kiddos so smile, make you feel at ease, and capture bright, cheerful photos, look no further -- Gingerly Snapped checks all the boxes!

I'm excited to have her do future photo shoots as our girls grow.

Awesome experience!…read more I recently had reached out to them as I had lost my pictures from a few years ago, and thankfully they still had them and was able to re-send them to me!

I even ordered several directly from her website. She captured each of my daughter's personality's perfectly. I was so impressed that she got some shots of my younger daughter who would not cooperate at all, and I was expecting only pictures of my older daughter. It was magic. :) Yasmin was so friendly, patient and is fantastic with kids. She knew just what to say, and I loved her props and backdrop. Thank you so much for capturing the sweetest memories of my young kids that I will cherish forever!

I brought four outfits from home, but ended up borrowing from the studio one amazing piece. Along with shoes and jewelry this studio was stocked. Christina the owner and photographer was so talented. I never felt rushed. She did not seem like she was in a hurry. She made sure I was positioned to be the most flattering and would help me adjust things as needed. Once my session was over, she explained to me the process for getting my album. She gave me options for the cover and let me choose the photos I wanted in the album. Along with that came a flash drive with all of my photos taken on the day. Within two weeks my album arrived at my door and it is beautiful. I would recommend this studio to anyone who might be afraid to do a session like this. I was never uncomfortable and I'm not normally photogenic. This was a great experience!

Christina made you feel so comfortable in your own skin. I had a great experience and had so much fun!!! I would love to do it again! Next time it will be with my bestie!!! I am so happy I did it. I inspired others to do the same thing. Christina and her makeup artist will doll you up and beautify you. It will be ALL about you. If you're on the fence and kinda shy, go see Christina. She's great and you will have an amazing photo session!
