He was very knowledgeable about outdoor shoots; the lighting, timing, positioning, everything. I had full faith that we were in good hands--he knew exactly what he was doing. He captured so many amazing shots that my family members were raving about that we tripled the amount of photos we bought. He was also very reasonably priced and easy to work with. He has integrity and a great attitude. He struck me as an artist who really strives to provide high quality memories and photos. I highly recommend him.

It was a pleasure working with Gabriela for my photo shoot. She kept our session laid back and…read moresilly just as I hoped she would. I couldn't have asked for a better photographer! She is very polite and took the time to talk and email a lot ahead of time so she could deliver just what I wanted. Her pictures are phenomenal, especially her ability to get the colors and lighting to perfection. I love that the photos do not look staged, fake, or cliche - she creates lovely images that capture the beauty of woman and the excitement of life in me. She was AMAZING! She provided the photos very quickly, much faster than any other photographer. I have gotten compliments on my photos like you wouldn't believe; many of my relatives have told me that they've never seen better photos taken of me. I feel so lucky that I was able to find Gabriela. Gabriela's patience, professionalism, skill, and artistic eye were all deeply appreciated. I am highly recommending her work and I would certainly hire her again. If I had to sum up the experience in five words this is what it would say: caring, considerate, creative, attentive, and stunning.

Marc was absolutely fantastic to work with. He was upfront with his pricing, expectations, and…read moreprovided some great recommendations. On day of photo shoot, he was on time, professional, kind, and just overall easy to talk to. He has a very cool and calm demeanor and just made us feel comfortable. He was great with our as well (5 and 3 year old) As far as photos, FANTASTIC!! He captured so many beautiful photos both candid and impulsive images that were beautiful. It was snowing that day in Vail and he managed to capture every image beautifully. Our photos looked like a Christmas card. So beautiful! He finished a few days before he had originally promised which is a bonus! Thank you Marc!!!

We honestly had a lot of fun with them at an engagement shoot and our pre-wedding ceremony photoshoot in the mountains, hiking around in our wedding clothes! Their shots came out great and they sent us the full gallery just 1 week after our wedding. The services are pretty expensive, but they are very up front with pricing and it is on par with other photography services. We were happy we had 2 photographers instead of 1.

I loved going to Ania's studio for our newborn pictures! We arrived and were warmly greeted by her…read moreand her assistant. Her studio is located in the walk out basement of her house- with a cozy area with a fireplace that me and my husband were able to relax in while the baby pictures were being taken. My husband was able to finish his breakfast while we were hanging out, which was nice. I've quickly learned that it's difficult to make it out of the house with a brand new newborn, let alone ready for professional pictures! Glad that wan't necessary for our shoot. I was able to change and do my hair and make up there- with lots of time to spare. My husband and I were conveniently included in the last 15min of the shoot for some family pictures. So glad we got those! All in all, great experience! My mother and I went back yesterday to see the photos (most of them were a surprise!) and review the packages. She projects them on a screen so you can sit back, relax, and enjoy the process. Ania was very helpful with the selections and editing options. I can tell she's very passionate about her work and really cares about the product she's producing. I can't wait to see the finished results!

I was even more comfortable with the fact that Ania is a nurse and was able to safely pose and comfort our baby girl. When we went to see the images she captured of our beautiful daughter, I was brought to tears! They were beautifully displayed on a large screen in a slideshow set to sweet music. She also designed beautiful birth announcements for us to be able to share the pictures with our friends and family. I highly recommend Ania Mikol Photography to anyone looking for pictures that capture such special times in their family's life, whether it's maternity, newborn, toddler, child, teen, family alike!

TLDR: John's photography in unposed moments left much to be desired, his timeliness and awareness…read morewere horrendous. Now, the details. John initially arrived for the day with seemingly no plan, he asked questions to the bridal party about what was next, and interrupted the flow of getting ready rather than blending in with the day as a photographer should. After stumbling through initial photos, the ceremony photos were poor quality, poorly lit, and entirely cut out the view which was the reason the couple chose the venue in the first place. Following the ceremony, John stood around talking with the bridal party during cocktail hour. It became clear as time went on that he did not have the schedule, if he did he would've asked everyone to start doing group photos. After personally rallying John, I asked if he had the shot list and schedule the bride had sent him. He pulled up his email and spent five minutes looking without ever finding it before wandering outside to where photos would be. Thankfully the day of coordinator was fantastic, I went to her and she had a copy of the shot list. However, she was not able to just pass that list off to John. He was fully unable to give direction and lead family and group photos, an essential part of a wedding day. The wedding coordinator had to stand with us directing photos based on the shot list, rather than being able to do her job and cocktail hour tasks. After fumbling through group photos, failing to direct the wedding party the entire time, we had hoped we were through the worst of it- we were wrong. During the reception a few of us ladies stepped into the bridal suite with the bride to fix an issue with her gown. He did not knock, he did not ask to come in, John simply opened the door and walked in, thankfully the bride was decent. He began talking to a clearly stressed out bride about how they needed to go do more photos because the light was great. Now, I LOVE a golden hour moment, but to walk into a bridal suite without permission & without knocking, was really the icing on the cake. John completely lacks the situational awareness, timeliness, and structure to be a professional wedding photographer. I have worked over 100 weddings in coordination and he was truly one of the least professional photographers I have ever had the displeasure of working with. He's getting 1 star from me because his posed portrait photos look good when the light was at its easiest to shoot with.
