I could not be happier with our choice of Rachel Higgins to do my son's senior portraits…read more From the first moment, Rachel was extremely professional, creative, and incredibly easy to work with. In my son's words, "She is super chill, and I felt comfortable the entire time. She is fun, easy to talk to and she made the day fun." Rachel utilized fantastic angles of my son while also incorporating the landscape of downtown SLO that really brought every picture to life, and all of the final images were amazing! Her use of lighting, composition and her attention to detail were perfect. We absolutely love our son's pictures, and highly recommend Rachel Higgins to anyone looking for someone to capture truly exceptional photography.

And then when our hard drive crashed and we lost all the photos, she made them all available again to us, and with a gentle recommendation to put all the photos on our Google Drive, which I did! Thanks Rachel for everything!

Dylan captured our engagement so perfectly! This was a surprise proposal so I had no idea of…read moreanything and had no say in the photographer! I'm so glad my fiancé reached out to Dylan! Dylan was so nice, engaging, and even asked us if there were any poses we had in mind for him to take. He also asked me if I preferred black & white photos, grainy photos, candids, etc. I thought that was really nice to ask me that because it made me feel confident he would deliver exactly what I had in mind. He sent our sneak peaks to us within 2 days and the rest of the photos within a week. They came out perfectly. Better than I could imagine! I'm so thankful for this beautiful moment and being able to look back on it, thanks to Dylan and his wonderful talents!!

We are so grateful and can't thank them enough for capturing all the memories from our big day!

I can't thank Blake and Robin enough…read more I need to find better adjectives, but our wedding pictures and video teaser were BEAUTIFUL, warm and candid. Which is exactly what I was looking for in our wedding photos. Thank you for making us feel special and capturing these beautiful moments. Blake captured some awesome shots of my mother in law who despises pictures and is not shy about dodging the photographer, so he gets an A+ just for that! Thank you for your patience and working through our hiccups, which I'm sure no wedding is short of. Thank you so much for allowing us to incorporate Louie's car into our pictures which was a bit last minute but your team handled it so well and even made us look like models!

From the very beginning, Katie and Joseph made the entire planning process easier and more enjoyable. Their communication was clear and consistent, but more importantly, they truly took the time to get to know us. They weren't just interested in our wedding--they were genuinely invested in our love story. We had several meetings leading up to the big day, which helped us build a strong connection. By the time the wedding arrived, it didn't feel like they were just showing up to take photos--it felt like they were stepping right into our story, ready to capture it exactly as we had dreamed. What made them exceptional wasn't just their photography skills, but how they made us feel. The day never felt like a photoshoot. Instead, they helped us stay present, savor the emotions, and reminded us that this day was all about us. Whether it was giving us a quiet moment alone to soak everything in or gently checking in to see if we wanted to keep taking sunset photos or rejoin the party, they consistently prioritized our comfort and our experience. We've already received sneak peeks--and we're absolutely in love. Every image reflects the joy, emotion, and magic we felt that day. They captured it all perfectly. Choosing Katie and Joseph was one of the most meaningful decisions we made, and we are endlessly grateful to have had them by our side. We can't recommend Poppy and Vine enough.

We are so thankful they…read morewere our amazing photographer duo for our wedding on November 5, 2022 outside of San Luis Obispo. The two are a seamless pair that work so well together. From getting ready to late night dancing, they do it all and are skilled in capturing the perfect little moments, which was something important to my wife and me. They have state of the art gear (including a super cool drone) yet still offer extremely reasonable prices for their services. While we haven't seen the final copies, they turned previews for us in around 48 hours! These two are extremely hardworking and book up quickly. Before contracting with us THEY requested a zoom/in-person meet and greet. I really appreciated this because it allowed my wife and I to share our desires but also allowed them to gauge if they were the right photographer for your vision. Included in their services were bridal portraits, which we plan to do at a destination shoot in the near future. The only thing I would've changed would have been to get more of their photography services for events leading up to the big day: engagement shoot, rehearsal dinner, welcome drinks, etc. Thank you Katie and Joseph!

Not only do they…read morecapture you're newborn in the sweetest of ways, but they provide such a comfortable, warm environment for you and baby while doing so... they're also super creative and flexible! My son was born with club feet that had to be casted when he was 5 days old in order to correct them. I was worried it would affect our ability to have newborn pictures taken because I remember with our first son, he was curled up into a little ball for photos ...and with my second son's cast, you can't curl up his legs. I emailed them with a heads up and they assured me that they could still get creative with the photos.... And they completely followed through! They did adorable poses while also keeping in mind my baby's comfort with his casts, and completely worked either around them, or with them! It truly was a wonderful experience!
