That said.. he took all the photos for the family gathering and I had a chance to see proofs and he did a FANTASTIC job. Since I don't have a phone number to put with the business, I included his email address at the top of this review. If you need a photographer for a wedding, band, event, etc... I say give him a try!

Stacy responded right away and got something scheduled pretty quickly. The evening of the shoot, she made everyone feel at ease and actually enjoy the whole thing. We were really pleased. Then the turnaround for the proofs was about 2 weeks, plus only one more day for the final product. We were super impressed by the fast turnaround, especially since she's in high demand!

Weird because we were always talking by phone or text, but to cancel she used e-mail. She is a student and was likely too busy with school to bother calling me? Gillian refused to honor the groupon and I had 2 days to find another photographer for my son's birthday. FUN! It looks as though she didn't think the money $75 groupon for 1 hour was enough for her efforts? I felt so stupid. It seemed to me by the way she treated me that she was immature and unreliable... and since she said she didn't care if I gave her a bad review. Here it is...Then she went to her facebook account to bad mouth me and call me names and tell her friends a different story.... here is what she posted: "...Then told me I'm unprofessional and to expect a negative review. OK but she's gonna be in for a surprise when she realizes Groupon won't let you leave a review until the voucher is redeemed. Also lol fuck off" A lot of integrity huh, Gillian?. And then Gillian posted this: "She left me a review on thumbtack..... Which i don't even use. Plus I can post a response to her review, which I did. Lol. Bitch". I have print screen of everything Gillian -- you can delete it now, but I have the history. This is Rochester -- a small city being professional is very important. It seems very naive of you to go to you friends and potential clients on Facebook to badmouth a customer... and I don't care. But your reputation should. By the way on her facebook she says family photos isn't even what she would like to do for living...I have a print screen of that too. Good luck!

Working with Robin was absolutely amazing…read more My (now) husband and I had a civil ceremony at Rochester City Hall, so it was a quick affair, but we wanted to have it well documented, so we reached out to Robin.

I recently worked with Jess when I needed a portrait style headshot for a business I was starting…read more From the moment I walked into her office, Jess was warm, welcoming, knowledgeable and informative. Jess explained the process and pricing, and promptly sent forms and contracts that corresponded with our conversations to outline and finalize details. She spent a great deal of time discussing with me what were my needs and exploring possibilities for the overall look and feel of the photo I desired. The shoot itself was SO fun. Jess knows how to put you at ease and also gives direction and has an eye for detail. She'd move a hair that was out of place or tell me to lean forward or shift my weight if a pose I was going for didn't look quite right, etc. She also had a lovely assistant whose kind and easy-going demeanor was a bonus. Jess made this feel like a boutique experience: like I would imagine if going to a "big city" and working with the best in their field. If a photographer can have bedside manner- Jess is a 10! She is obviously technically skilled as well, so to have the full package was a find. She would offer her perspective but would also listen to my feedback and wants without condescension. The final product came out beautiful, and what struck me most about the whole experience was the time Jess spent with me to make sure she understood my needs and could provide photos that would be "on brand" and visually communicate the message I wanted to send to prospective clients. HIGHLY recommend this talented artist.

She was wonderful to work with, very thorough, always works with a contract, responsive via email and phone, and prepared in advance, setting expectations for the experience. She arrived on time and captured the event experience as we discussed beforehand. She was clear about pricing and was able to edit the contract to fit our needs for timing and payment along with a timeframe in which she'd send the photos, which she did through Google Drive. They turned out beautifully and she featured a few on her blog! Can't wait for the opportunity to work with her again!
