    Corey worked with our 10 month old recently and we were really pleased with her work. She was a…read morelittle late from running over with another session but the kindness and patience she showed in spending extra time with this sweet mother only 2 weeks postpartum made me quickly forget. She shared that she had really developed as a photographer using it as a form of therapy after facing postpartum depression. My respect for her grew tremendously when she shared that so openly after only knowing me for a short while. During the session she was mentoring a fellow photographer, "a way to pay it forward" - and again, I think this speaks volumes about her character. Her studio was gorgeous - tons of natural light with large windows and comfy chairs. I loved that it didn't take a ton of props and "glamour shot" type set up to get started. I think too many times people go over the top with child photography but Corey kept it simple and made sure our daughter was having fun. This in turn really captured her in a way that showed who she is - beautiful inside, too. In terms of Corey's demeanor and work - she was incredibly sweet, patient, patient, professional, and great with our little one. She even shared some snacks to get her "camera ready." Corey did an awesome job of just naturally capturing our little girl's spirit and personality. She didn't try to force anything and really knew when things were and weren't working. We look forward to working with Corey again in the future and would recommend Glee and Bliss to anyone looking for quality photos of their child!

    Corey recently did a photo shoot of my tour in Washington DC. What impressed me the most was how…read morewell she captured so many moments as we went about the town. Beyond the typical poses in front of the monuments and the memorials, she captured us moving about the city, very much in the style of a photo-journalist. It's so fun to show off her pictures because they tell the story so well. Beyond that, the pictures themselves are beautiful. As a bit of an amature photographer myself, I wanted her to tell me her secrets to get the the colors and the lighting so perfect, and how she made her subjects look so good. She showed me a few things, but I think kept most of it secret! I highly recommend her for anyone looking for a photographer who focuses on capturing images of people as her primary subjects. I will definitely call on her again in the future.

Luckily we found Clay with a quick internet search and he came up as one of Raleigh's best photographers (pretty sure he won an award for best photographer, but I can't remember the name, sorry Clay). What a gift and blessing it was to find Clay! You want your child to be able to be themselves and hopefully the photographer can catch that on film. Clay and Danny (Clay's wife) did just that. They were able to capture our son's personality and moments that will last a lifetime. The spent a whole afternoon with us walking all over Chapel Hill making sure that we had the chance to see our son in so many unique environments. We did not expect to get the time and treatment we received, Clay's personal attention is sincere and appreciated. Beyond the quality of the images, the selection of mediums they offer is amazing. The price points are extremely affordable and very high quality products. I simply cannot recommend Clay enough. Thank you to you and Danny once again. You brought tears to our eyes during the reveal. Not only did you gain life long customers, you have some new friends! Obrigado Amigos!

    From the moment I emailed this company, it has been a pleasure. I receive immediate (Literally a…read moreminute or so most of the time) responses. We booked for my sister's wedding and I'd have to say, this was probably the only part that went super smoothly. We received custom lettering & dates on the bottom of each photo strip. We requested a lavender backdrop and was completely satisfied. They arrived on time and set up promptly. The staff member was very professional. It's not a traditional photo booth, just a backdrop & a screen which we loved because more people were able to fit. It included backdrops which made it more fun. We received 2 copies which was great because all the guest got to take a photo and leave one for my sister's photo album. The CD with all prints came super fast. Tuesday event & I received the CD on Saturday. I'm super pleased with this company and would recommend them to any and everyone!! Thanks HOT DOG PHOTO BOOTH!!!

    What sets Carrie apart from other photographers that I've worked with is her ability to put you at…read moreease. Her magic is in her kind, warm, bubbly personality...it makes you feel like you can truly be yourself, which can be tricky when someone is staring at you with a camera. Carrie truly loves what she does when she's behind the camera, so it makes the time you spend with her fun. Her energy and warmth are infectious! Carrie captured the most precious moments for my husband and I for our engagement photos, she also took our wedding photos at the Seattle courthouse last spring which turned out beautifully, and this fall she will be taking our wedding reception photos in my home town, and I can't wait. My husband and I have done the whole engagement-wedding thing in a very non-traditional way, so hiring Carrie was the perfect choice because she won't give you cookie cutter pictures. Carrie is imaginative, playful, and spirited...her images reflect her creative flair. Our pictures were romantic yet very personal, she captured the best moments! I think it's safe to say, we love Carrie! And all of our most special moments have a theme that is unique to Carrie's eye.

    Carrie is personable, amazingly talented and will for sure capture real, meaningful moments that…read moreyou will treasure for a long time to come. She is bar none the best photographer we've worked with! We've now had several sessions with her, and I can't truly express in words how much we appreciate the work she's done in capturing these events/moments for us. For example, we booked a newborn session with her, however after giving birth to my son and having a difficult postpartum experience, I was not exactly in a place where I felt awesome about myself, and definitely did not feel up to being in front of a camera! I really only wanted pictures of our newborn son and some with my husband and son. She gently convinced me otherwise, and I have to say I'm so SO happy she did. I was amazed that although I didn't feel particularly stunning or camera ready, she captured beautifully simple and authentic interactions between a mother and her newborn son. It didn't matter how I looked/felt, the pictures turned out beautifully and those happen to be my most treasured of us. She is a mother of two herself, so she was so very patient with working with our little one! She takes pride in her work, and it shows in the final product. You will be elated!

My son had so much fun with Neil and getting his photos taken that the hour went by too fast! The photos came out so great. I was so happy with the results. There were so many great shots it was hard to choose a favorite. My husband and I are planning on doing a family photo shoot in the future with Neil. Can't wait!

I have looked at over 15 photographers in the Brooklyn area and they will advertise $175-350 for the session, and then still charge $100 on top for the CD, plus 10-12 dollars or more for each print. None of these photographers had any impressive credentials, and most didn't even have their own studio. Neil was super prompt to answer my messages I wrote to him through the company Facebook page. I had tons of ridiculous questions he was happy to answer. I was truly the client from hell, and even arrived late to my appointment, and Neil was still super friendly, calm and accommodating. My little son is 9 months old and very weary of strangers and their homes, but Neil had him engaged and laughing. We have wonderful pictures. Even my husband admitted it was a great idea to have a portrait session and he loved the results. We had our session the night before thanksgiving, and the prints were ready the following Monday. Had it not been for the Holiday they probably would have been ready even sooner believe it or not. Neil even offered to hand deliver to CD to us! You will get the most bang for your buck with Neil. He is just as, if not more professional than anyone I've had a consultation with.
