She came very prepared and organized, and had a wide variety of props and techniques to relax the dogs and get their natural, beautiful expressions and poses. For the family photo, our dogs were very high energy and we also felt nervous. Lori gave us tips to relax us, which calmed our dogs down just enough for the perfect photos. She captured very poignant moments of us interacting with the dogs. Her website and preview system are a breeze to use, and she's a perfectionist with the printed photos. We couldn't be happier with our gorgeous prints displayed in our home.

I have debated writing this review for quite some time. I realized I was doing others a disservice…read moreif they waste their money like I did. Since that time, I have had the opportunity to hire a more stable, professional photographer for the same type of setting and that is why I realized this needed to be done. While the photographer seemed to be enthusiastic about my family, I soon realized that the person behind the camera does not listen, take direction, or even try to understand what my family needed or wanted. She showed up with someone else and they both took pictures, but it was clear that her attention was not on our family. When we finally had access to our photos, they were so much worse than I expected. Not only did it take twice the amount of time to see them but there was no touch up and it showed that she was not paying attention. She was not responsive to emails or phone calls when I had questions about what we asked for vs what we saw. What we got was someone who has a hobby. What we paid for was a professional. I have found at least a dozen other photographers with comparable prices who did a far better job. My advice: don't waste your money. This woman is out to make a buck on a hobby without the experience of a professional.

Bela was running the house as our commands were literally falling on deaf ears! Alisa taught us to communicate with Bela using hand signals. She now follows instructions like a champ!

It shows how talented a photographer is when I spent literally months unable to decide on the right photos for my collection of prints because well, there were so many of them! Lauren was incredibly helpful via text and over the phone in choosing which photos would be a good choice since I had a hard time deciding. She also really adored my pet Guinea pig, Snickers who is very photogenic and made him a little star on her Instagram! I will say that I had some anxiety about getting pictures taken with Snickers because I'm not as thin as I would like to be, but Lauren made me very comfortable and we got lots of wonderful prints! In fact, there were so many other photos that I really enjoyed but didn't purchase that I have thought of purchasing more and perhaps making a scrapbook or photo album with the different photos! I have to say that I knew Snickers was cute, but I couldn't tell just how adorable he is until I saw these professional photos! I would definitely use Lauren again, in a heartbeat and I would definitely pass her name onto friends.

After deciding to have a portfolio shot of our pets, I quickly learned there are precious few pet imagery photographers out there. I was glad to find one here on YELP. Lauren's prices are very reasonable. But, cost notwithstanding, she is a truly talented artist with an eye for capturing that perfect moment. The shoot took just about two hours. Lauren worked well with all three of my dogs. She definitely captured their individual personalities while walking around the neighborhood, in the house, and out on the rear deck. It was a beautiful autumn day for the shoot. And, Lauren included the gorgeous scenery into most every shot. I highly recommend Pet Imagery by Lauren Kaplan. I also recommend taking professional pics of your pets while they are still bounding around. You will be glad you did.
