From the moment I arrived, Ayla made me feel confident and comfortable in my own space, even though I was new to photo shoots. Her energy is incredible--she knows exactly how to boost your confidence and help you shine! The hair and makeup were on fire!!!

I booked my session on her website, photographybyvanessajane.com, which was very easy to use and provides great examples of her portfolio. Also impressive was her response time - she replied back to me within an hour. Her rates are extremely reasonable as well, and she has many session options to choose from. On the day of the session, she met up with my son, husband, and I at a location of our choosing (The Rhododendron Garden in Federal Way, WA), and immediately got to work! She has the perfect personality to put her clients at ease, and within minutes had my grumpy teenager smiling and laughing! We all had so much fun that our session just flew by and before we knew it, our time was up. Within 2 weeks, I received an email from Vanessa with the link to the finished pictures. I LOVED the results!!!! Each picture brings a smile to my face. She captured the true essence of my son - that smiley, loving young man that hides behind the salty, moody, grunting teen that normally lives in my house and eats all the food. I am having a hard time picking my favorite picture. Still not sure which one will win out and go out to the relatives and into the yearbook. Needless to say, she did a fantastic job and I cannot recommend her enough. Thank you Vanessa!!!

Booking was smooth as butter thanks to Kaitlyn, and Sara made me feel beautiful, empowered, and like I could probably conquer the world--or at least a stage in stilettos. Every room was its own little adventure. The book wall room screamed vintage glam, the pole and mirror room unleashed my inner mischievous showgirl, and the moody green room? Total pin-up magic. The costume closet? Basically a treasure chest for grown-ups--outfits, shoes, and sparkling accessories everywhere. I may have hoarded a few mental favorites for future 'dangerously fabulous' moments. Guidance during the shoot was perfect--I didn't just follow directions, I thrived. Conversation was easy, fun, and full of laughs, and I left feeling unstoppable. The reveal? Unbelievably delicious and surprisingly emotional in a cleansing way. I walked away with photos I'll treasure forever and confidence that refuses to leave me. Honestly, just book it. You'll leave feeling like a badass, chaotic, slightly magical force of nature.
